I am looking for a Canady Connection My Grandfather Elzy Kirkland married Catherine Canady Cannady Kennedy in Henry County in 1850 His Brother Zacheriah Kirkland Married Sarah Canady Catherine's Sister on June 10 1846 in Henry County and that is all the information I have If anyone has any information please get in touch with me THANKS Elza Oates Texas

I believe the reason you will find few records for Dale Co., AL is because the courthouse burned in the 1860's?? I forget the exact date, but many records were destroyed. Teri

Dear Henry County Researchers: In response to someone asking for titles of Henry County books, I'm posting a few below that have helped in my research. I'm also including a few titles that deal with Early and Clay counties in Georgia across the Chattahoochee. You may be able to order some of these interlibrary loan. Others you may have to go to Abbeville. The library there has a nice little local history room. 1. Hoyt M. Warren, Henry's Heritage, (Chancey-Herring Publishing, 1978). Seem to be several volumes of this published over many years. 2. Hoyt M. Warren, Henry--The Mother County, 1816-1903, (Warren Enterprises -- 1981). 3. Mrs. Marvin Scott, Henry County Cemetery Records. 4. Lynn Willoughby, Flowing Through Time: A History of the Lower Chattahoochee River, The University of Alabama Press, 1999. 5. Joel W. Perry, Some Pioneer History of Early County. 6. Collections of Early County Historical Society, Blakely, Georgia. (multi-volume) 7. D. Gregory Jeane, The Architectural Legacy of the Lower Chattahoochee Valley in Alabama and Georgia, (University of Alabama Press, 1978). 8. David Williams, Rich Man's War:: Class, Caste, and Confederate Defeat in the Lower Chattahoochee Valley, University of Georgia Press, 1998. 9. P.C. King, Jr., Fort Gaines and Environs, (Warren Enterprises, 1976). Sincerely, David McKissack -- family website at http://www.familytreemaker.com/users/m/c/k/David-Mckissack/

Another book: Mrs. Marvin Scott, History of Henry County, Alabama - I believe she included the marriage records 1821 - 1868, Marriage Book "A" in this book. Mary Harper

Janie I have Marriage Index: Alabama, 1800-1900 FTM CD#248 I checked by surname, first name Ella* and by counties and didn't come up with anything. The county searches did not show counties by Geneva, Houston or Dale... maybe they came at later dates?

Hi If I wanted to contribute articles and other material to Henry County Heritage Book who would I contact. Thank you Jacob L. Bateman III or Le.

Just wanted to let everyone know that I'm finally adding to material at http://www.geocities.com/BourbonStreet/Quarter/5221 It includes now an introduction for the regimental histories I'm putting on line and a chart of assignments for nearly all the regiments I'm researching. They include: 37th and 3rd AL, 4th and 6th FL. There are rosters for the companies in which my ancestors served. Hope to have one up this week for Co E of the 37th AL. Thanks, Ron Hall
