Hello list; I am looking for those who are researching the Herston family of Lauderdale County. Would love to find information on William A. Hurston, born 1849, married Julia Ann Whitehead and second to who? Parents? Siblings? Looking forward to hearing and sharing info.

Hello, I've been away from this board for quite awhile. I'm seeking correspondence with persons who had ancestors that were Unionists during the Civil War. Do you have a family story that hasn't been told or a period family photo that you'd like to see in print ? During May, I published the first book in a series entitled, UNIONISTS OF THE WARRIOR MOUNTAINS OF ALABAMA (it featured Marion County AL events/stories & cemetery atlas of CW period, along with first published photo of 1st Alabama Cavalry in ca 1900 reunion). The second in the series is due for publishing in late September or October. It will feature guerrella warfare on the homefront stories of Lauderdale, Lawrence, and Limestone counties (a la the stories published by Wm L. McDonald, Dr. Maurice C. "Wade" Pruitt, et.al.); together with presentation of family data for the known UNIONISTS across Northern Alabama. Look forward to hearing from some of you. Joel Mize

I need information on a THOMAS HOWELL (or family) born about 1910, probably in Kentucky or Alabama. I know that his family was in Kentucky in the early 1900's. He might have been born in Lauderdale County, Alabama, as the family was there earlier and then back there after the death of his father in 1912. Father: William T. (alias TEB) Howell buried probably Bowling Green, Kentucky in 1912. Mother: Mary Wesson buried unknown. Last known as living in D.C. area in 1944. I have information from an obit. of his brother Terry Howell (Florence, Alabama) that says Thomas was living in Washington, D.C., when Terry Howell died in 1944. His mother Mary Wesson Howell also is listed in D.C. in 1944. Thomas Howell married Erin Lane of Colbert County, Alabama, date unknown. In 1956, upon the death of both of Erin's parents, she is listed as living in Medina County, Texas. I don't know if Thomas Howell was living at that time or not. From about 1960-1967, Erin Lane Howell is listed as back living in Colbert County, Alabama. Husband Thomas Howell is not listed and must of already passed away. Erin died in 1967 and is buried in Colbert County, Alabama. Thanks for any help. SteveCooper Florence, Alabama stevecooper75@comcast.net

Is anyone researching any WILLIAMS family that was in Lauderdale County, Alabama about 1850 ? I need information on a Sarah Maragret Williams. She married David Wilson Howell in 1851.

Does anyone know whether Lauderdale Co, AL or the area around St. Joe TN had an outbreak of TB or another illness which involves the spitting up of blood in the early 1900's (1912-1915)? Mention is made in a family diary of someone sick, spitting up blood, being taken to St Joe and then dying within 2 yrs. But the missing diary is the year in which the person died. Anna Marie Langley alangley@hiwaay.net

In Lauderdale County, had one ancestor die of typhoid in 1916. He was about 21 and wouldn't have traveled out of that area, and it would have been contagious. Whether it involves "spitting up of blood" I don't know.

Does anyone out there know anything about a J.C (or G) COX that must have someone of wealth about 1850-1860? He keeps turning up in deeds with some of my QUILLEN and CLEMMONS ancestors. He would hold in trust livestock, etc for what I think are small amts of money-like one was $3.25 another $10.25, another $8.36. Well you get the point!! I'm working on an ancestral (direct descendant) scrapbook for my grandmother's 89th birthday while I'm off work on sick leave (had surgery), and need some info so I can complete a descriptive page about life for Charles D (I think Daniel) Quillen 1802-bet.1870-1880. And if anyone has info they think I may not have please feel free to let me know about it. I'll gladly share anything I have with you. Anna Marie Langley alangley@hiwaay.net
