Deborah: Well, you and I certainly need to compare notes! I have Camilla and Alfred Starling, but I have Camilla as the daughter of Daniel Jackson and ? Melton. Unfortunately, I don't know anything about Bryant. Daniel and Matthew Jackson were the two brothers that cut roads into Henry County from Georgia in the early 1820's. I'm descended from Matthew's line. However, there was rumour of a third brother and I've long suspected that this 3rd brother was Henry Jackson. Tell me more and I'll share what I know!

I am looking for the parents of Lousiana Sholar b. 1811 wife of Daniel James Melvin. Lousianna appears to be related to the other Sholar/shoulders families in Henry but can find no connection. Family legend says that she is the daughter of a John Sholar and Lousianna Evert/Advert but can find no evidence of that. Any help appreciated. Deborah Byrd

I am looking for information on the family of Bryant Melton b. Jan 1, 1811 d. Feb 3, 1874 and Camilla Jackson Starling Wife of Alfred Starling. All three are buried in a Starling Family Cemetery in Henry county. Been there but didn't pay attention to where I was taken. Too much fun meeting new cousins. Anyway. Camilla aka Cormilla was the daughter of Henry W. Jackson and Celia Melton. Was Bryant Celia's brother? Deborah Byrd

I have information on the family of Solomon Starling and Sussanah Strickland that I would like to share. Solomon is either the brother or uncle of Synthia Starling wife of Elias Starling and Sussanah is the sister of Elias. The families migrated from Columbus county around 1825 with John Starling father of Solomon. Deborah Byrd

Hi Jeffrey, I just received your post today. I would like very much to post my family trees on the Henry Co. web site, since Henry is the Alabama county where our family began. I am a descendant of Elias Strickland and Jiney A. (?) and a descendant of Joel Grantham and Catherine Adams. Both families lived in Henry County in the mid 1800s to the early 1900s. If you would like to post these family trees, let me know, and I will send those files to you. An avid fan of the Henry County genweb site.

Hey Henry County Researchers: In an effort to even FURTHER improve the Henry County ALGenWeb webpage, the following GenConnect boards have been added: Bible Records, Bios, Deeds, Obits, Pensions, and Wills. Needless to say, they're empty at the moment, which is where you come in. If we each comb our files and enter some useful info, we'll soon have a nice collection of research material for the world to use! Please don't let your records gather dust, share them with all of your co-researchers! As always, I'm striving to make the Henry County Alabama webpage the best county page on the USGenWeb, but I can't do it alone. If you have suggestions, please feel free to message me. Jeffrey

Hello, I'm Mike Holland from Colorado Springs, CO. I have been researching my father's family in south Alabama for over twenty years but until lately it has been a struggle since there are at least two HOLLAND families in Henry County that (as far as I can tell) are not related. My father was Lawrence Cleveland Holland, son of Perry Cleveland Holland and Lena Chapman. He was born in Graceville, Florida but raised in Hartford. The surnames that I am most interested in are: HOLLAND, CHAPMAN, JACOBS, TRAWICK, MIOCK, ANTLEY My great great grandfather was John Holland who married Mary Ann Antley in Henry County, Alabama in May of 1859. He served with Company A, 37th Alabama Infantry as did his father-in-law Emanuel Antley. Neither survived the War, John died in Oxford, Mississippi on in November of 1862 and Emanuel died in Vicksburg, Mississippi on July 2, 1863. If anyone has any information on this family or would like to exchange information, please contact me. Thanks Mike Holland James.M.Holland@compaq.com <mailto:James.m.holland@compaq.com>
