I am trying to find siblings and parents of Ashael Akers of Lauderdale County. He died prior to 1850. He was married to Rhoda Pratt, daughter of John and Frances Pratt. Ashael and Rhoda's daughter Nancy Ann Akers married Ira Dotson White of Lawrence County, Tn. son of David White. Is there anyone else out there related to these families? Doris James

These are just some of the names that my wife is working on. Her family were from Florence, Alabama. Any help would be appreciated.

Searching for data on parents of: My gggrandfather; John C. GIST, b. c1818, TN. m. Elizabeth FISHER, (1826-1861), in 1847 in Lawrence Co., TN. They had four children: James Carroll "Jimmy" Gist, b. 1849 Celia Jane "Lucinda" Gist, b. 1853 Elizabeth Ann Gist, b. 1855 John Henry Gist, b. 1859 Father of John C. unknown but possibly John GEST described as an early settler of Lawrence County in Goodspeed history. Strong circumstantial evidence that mother was Elizabeth GIST who (2nd) married Elija WALKER in 1819. I believe this Elizabeth may have been an older sister of Joseph GIST and Joshua GIST who settled in Lawrence County, TN by 1818 and later moved to Lauderdale Co., AL. Per Bugger Saga by Wade Pruitt, John C GIST was murdered by renegades at his home on Shoal Creek in Apr 1865. Following his death, son James Carroll "Jimmy" GIST married Nancy Lidda WILEY in August 1865 and he and his siblings migrated to White Co., AR in 1866. In his narration, Pruitt describes John C. as first cousin to Levi and James GIST (sons of Joseph GIST). Looking for any evidence to confirm relationship between John C. of Lawrence Co., TN and the Gist's of Lauderdale Co. Thanks to all. Bob Watson

Any info on Harvey SMITH (abt 1855) who married Martha Elizabeth LINDSEY (1859) would be most helpful.
