    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Walker,Best,Daughtrey,Daughtery,Osteen,Youmans,Armstrong,Smith,Rose,Wylam Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/YS.2ADI/2893 Message Board Post: I am searching for information on James BEST born 1824. He may have been married to Abbegail b 1818 in Henry County, Freemans Ala. They had two sons, George b 1855 and Morgan b. 1849-1853? Morgan...same man different dates. I later find James,sons George and Morgan in Lafayette County Fl, and James is married to Sarah Best. The Best family information eludes me. My g g grandmother was Mary Ann Miller Sparrow who was married to James Best in Lafayette Fl. I am trying to see if either Morgan or George was named James also, and used middle names, and or what happened to them.They disappear after 1870. I believe Abbegail Best from Alabama died in the civil war and that is the reason the boys lived with their father and step mother in Lafayette County Fl This is beyond a brick wall and most of what I have is strictly census records, and family stories Any information or even ideas would be appreciated.
