I too have been looking for any Miers that could be buried in the Cotton Valley, Tuskegee area. I thought your choice of the word, " Undertake," most appropiate. Nick Miers

Polly: When I was visiting Tuskegee in 2000, members of the Church of the Latter Day Saints (familysearch.org) were there a few weeks before I arrived. I was told that they transcribed every cemetery in Tuskegee. You many want to try to contact them to find out about this undertaking and when and if these transcribed records are available, do the ancestors you are seeking were found in these records. Best regards Doll Harris-Hargrove Afrigeneas.com - PA State Coordinator Diggin' Up Alabama Roots Researching Macon County, Alabama for the following: Surnames: BARROW, BRYANT, CORELLUS, FITZPATRICK, HARRIS, MARTIN, THOMAS, WEBB, WILSON, WOOLFOLK

I'm hoping someone familiar with Tuskegee and surrounding areas can help me. I am trying to locate the burial places of my white, affluent (at least before the Civil War) gggf and ggf, Tuskegee residents, who I know are buried in the area. I have looked at a microfiche of Robert Y. Perry's transcriptions of various local cemeteries including Tuskegee City cemetery, but they have not appeared. My ggggm(died 1873) and another relative (d.1862) are buried in the Tuskegee City Cmtry, but the people I am searching for are not. I have records that indicate that they were buried in the Tuskegee area, if not in Tuskegee itself. While looking through Mr. Perry's transcription, I noticed that other people I am familiar with from my research do not appear, either. The following info about him may be relevent in determining where he was buried: his name was Albert Sidney Harper; he was a Mason, a grocery store owner with a Mr. MacDonald after the Civil War, a circuit clerk of the court, married to a Fitzpatrick (she died elsewhere), died in 1890, possibly a Methodist, and once owned a plantation in Cotton Valley (courtesy of his wife). These facts may offer clues as to where he could be buried. His son, my ggf, died in 1904 in Montgomery but was sent off to be be buried in Tuskegee according to his obituary. If not in Tuskegee City Cemetery, then where would people like this have been buried? Any help or insights would be appreciated.

They had two children: Willborn Taunton (b. c1836, GA) and Mary Taunton (b. before 1850, AL). Between 1830 and 1840, Newsom and Mary moved to Macon Co., AL, where they were listed in the 1840 and 1850 censuses, but the entire family disappeared after that. Does anyone know where they went? How about who Mary Mathis/Matthews’ parents might be? Was she a daughter of John Matthews/Mathis, who was listed next door to Newsom and Mary in the 1830 census of Crawford Co., GA?

Doug, I see my brother has asked a question on Carr's school house. As I understand Carr's school house sat on the land of a Samuel Carr along the east prong of Line Creek. I believe that this Samuel Carr was married to an Elizabeth Parker. They had at least two children John Daniel Carr (b.1825)and Celina or Selina Carr. John Daniel was married to a Sarah Ann Bell. They had at least one son William Samuel and two girls Martha and A.E. before John Daniel died at age 29. Sarah went on to marry again to J. Cooper. Our great grandfather William Samuel had at least 16 children by three wives two of which were Oswalt sisters and the third was a Zerma or Zenner? We know one of his children Ola, lived in the area until her death and is buried along side Ebenezer Church which John Daniel helped establish. Any information you have would be helpful.
