Hi Mary, There were/are several Cochran's that had membership in Ironworkers Local Union #92 located at 3212 So. 6th. Ave in B'ham. I can't remember exactly, but I think they lived in both Ensley and Shelby Co. You may get the names and phone numbers if you explain what you are looking for. Be aware. Their membership info is private. They may pass your name and number for them to call you. At least you may be able to work backward.

Thank you so much Melba. I believe I have an LDS office close by, and since I haven't been able to find other information on other lines, that might be the best place for me to check out next.

I'm not aware of any site that would have an index. Some individual county sites might have them. I think that there are comercial sites that one must have paid membership fees to use that has censuses on line. There is one company online that sell CD's of censuses by county.. Your best bet is probably to find a library that has a Soundex on microfilm. Or if you are out-of-state, one can order these film from the LDS.

does anyone know if these exist for Birmingham? can someone please do a look-up for me if city directories for this time period exist? I am interested in finding a Dr. Collins-one who died about 1847, and another who probably lived past that time. I have no access to such records out here on the west coast, so if sks would look this up for me, I'd truly appreciate it. Cornelia

There is a fenced lot with a guard next to the new library. You can walk along the street and across 20th street to the Southern History Collection and Microfische/Microfilm. The entrance to this section faces the park, not 20th St. Or you can go up the elevator or escalator and cross over to the other building. Birmingham has really done a nice job on the streets and they look good. I have always felt safe. There is a good deli (Sophie's) on the corner of 20th St. & 8th Ave. if you are staying all day. Good luck on your research. Carolyn

In May, we had over 149 million page views (according to Nielsen NetRatings combined home and work statistics), sent over 155 million e-mails, and handled over two million downloads of files from the various archives hosted at RootsWeb. Everyone, take a bow! This is an incredible community of genealogists, and the advances we're all making in our research due to the sharing that occurs here is unprecedented. Bad news: The more popular RootsWeb becomes, the more costly it is to simply stay alive and online. Expenses continue to exceed revenue. We ran up a truly scary loss last year. Without outside help, it's not clear how long we'd be able to go on like this. Good news: MyFamily.com (you may know them better as Ancestry.com) recognizes the importance of the genealogical community that has grown here at RootsWeb, and wants that community to continue to thrive. They're excited to provide the financial stability we need to ensure RootsWeb will be around for years to come. Brian and I are pleased by Ancestry.com's coming involvement with RootsWeb. Now we can all focus on helping each other on the mailing lists and message boards, uploading our GEDCOMs, and building Web pages to share our research. Better news: As a special thank you to those of you who have helped make RootsWeb such a vibrant Internet community, Ancestry.com is making the following offer: You are invited to visit Ancestry.com today and sign up for a FREE 14-day trial with no obligation.

RootsWeb will still support worthy genealogy projects and societies, such as the USGenWeb Project (www.USGenWeb.org), the Immigrant Ships Transcribers Guild (ISTG.rootsweb.com) and the FreeBMD Project (FreeBMD.rootsweb.com), and other groups that provide free genealogical resources.

Does anyone know if there is a web site that would give a tax payers list for the 1800's thus helping us to trace our ancestors this way? Also is there a web site for probate records for the 1800's as well? Thanks for comments.
