This message should have preceded the one on "Barron Mistake" I sent this message but left off the "L" after Lauderdale-L,so I don't know if this message got through. Kaye, I am interested in Alexander Barron Jr. and his wife Elizabeth Liddell who migrated to Lauderdale Co,Al from Giles Co,TN. after 1820. Alexander Barron Jr. was the son of Alexander Barron Sr. Alexander Barron Sr. had a sister Jane Barron who married my Robert Stephenson in York Co,S.C. in 1784. In 1799, Alexander Barron Sr. was living in Pendleton Co,S.C. About 1805, Alexander Barron Sr. and his neighbor George Shields sold out and went to Giles Co,TN. I am not looking at the 1820 census of Giles on line now,but there is Alexander Barron Jr.,William Barron,Sr.,William Barron Jr.,Abraham Barron,and Samuel Barron,all related,on that census. Alexander Barron Sr.,according to Giles Co,TN court records died in Giles about 1816. In the Giles County, Minute Book C, 1816-1817, page 9 the following is listed: June Term 1816. The last will and testament of Alexander Barron dec'd was produced in open Court and proven by the oaths of James Alexander and Nathaniel Alexander the subscribing witnesses thereto and ordered to be recorded, and thereupon came Alexander Barron and John Barron the executors therein named and was qualified according to law and gave bond and security. My Samuel Stephenson b. 1796 in York Co,S.C. married Mary Shields, the daughter of George Shields in Giles Co,TN. Samuel Stephenson had a son,George Alexander Stephenson who married Elizabeth Sarah Perry in Giles Co,TN in 1849. Sarah Perry Stephenson had a brother Joshua Perry who once lived in Lauderdale Co,Al. I was sent a message about the following Barron will in Lauderdale Co,Alabama. John Barron Will of 1828: son Samuel got $1.50 dau Crepey ?ard got $1.50 dau Polly James got $1.50 dau Elizabeth Baghy? got $1.50 dau Sally Poteet got Negro Girl Silucy and Sally's husband James Poteet was to have no part of Silucy.Wife Elizabeth got all beds and furniture, use of his plantation and the remainder of the Estate until she remarried or died. At that point the Estate was to be sold and equally divided among the lawful heirs of sons John and William(deceased)Barron. The Lauderdale Co,website mentions a John Barron marrying Elizabeth Wilborn or Welborn. I am not sure if this Elizabeth Wilborn or Welborn is the Elizabeth in the above will. Lauderdale Co,Al website shows a James Poteet who married Sally Barrow in Lauderdale Co,Al in 1819. I am also interested in Isabella Barron who married Risdon Wall or Walls in Lauderdale in the 1820's. She died in Itawamba Co,Mississippi. There is a Roan Baron who married John Burrow in Lauderdale in 1836. Roan was a Barron and a biography of her son,John A. Burrow,who was born in Lauderdale Co,Al, can be found at this website:http://searches.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/ifetch2?/u1/data/tn/+index+8188155435154+F According to the biography,Roan Barron was born in Giles Co,TN and was probably the daughter of Alexander Barron Jr. who went to Lauderdale. one of the William Barron's on the 1820 census of Giles,I believe, married Lavina Martin in Lawrence Co,Al in 1833.A Samuel Barron went to Madison Co,Al. in the 1830's. I am wondering if a Thomas Barron, who is mentioned at the Lauderdale Co,website, could have been one of my Barron's. He was either born or died in 1864,I am not looking at it now,but I believe he lived in Florence. There was an Alexander Franklin Barron b. TN who was living in TX in the 1850's. He became a Mormon and went to Utah. He is mentioned at this website under "Description of Journey" http://searches.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/ifetch2?/u1/data/tn/+index+8188155435154+F Alexander Franklin Barron,born 1813 in Giles Co,TN,according to other researchers, was the son of Alexander Barron Jr.and his wife Elizabeth Liddell who went to Lauderdale Co,Al. 1850 Harris Co,TX census p. 33 #577 Barron, A[lexander] F. 37 m w farmer $750 TN Mary 22 f TX Mary C. 5 f TX Sarah Johanna 3 f TX Wm.
