My apologie to the group. I should know better than to make statements without looking at my hard copies first. In this case, George Washington Rye was married to Sara Ann Ballard. It was his father who was married twice. To answer the question of who was GW's father, I am using my documentation. George Washington Rye b. 06/18/1859 d. 05/25/1934 Buried Cooper Cemetary near Lamar/Marion Co. line in Ala. Married to Sara Ann Ballard b. 01/15/1859 d. 06/08/1934 Buried Cooper Cemetary GW's father- William Monroe "Billy" Rye b. 03/11/1816 d. 01/09/1905 Buried Cooper Cemetary mother- Elizabeth Jeffreys b. 1824 d. 1897 Buried Cooper Cemetary (She is second wife) m. 02/17/1858 William Rye's first wife was - Ann Bowling b. 1821 d. 1852(?) Buried Whittle Cemetary- Marion Co. AL m. 11/10/1833 She is the mother of Andrew Jackson, Alex, and James Rye. These men were in Co. B of the 26th Alabama CSA. William M. Rye's father was Solomon Rye Jr. b. 6/4/1783, North Carolina d. 8/10/1855 Mississippi Solomon Jr was son of Solomon Rye Sr. b. 1755, North Carolina d. Mar 1821, Dickson, TN. Hope this helps.

Greetings from Indiana, Who was the father of George Washington Rye (married to Sarah Jefferies)? Who was G. W.'s first wife? I am not up on my Rye genealogy and need some help Ira L.

Greetings from a Rye relative in Pennsylvania -And I think I may have already been in contact with you --just not sure. But your note intrigued me. Are you related to Andrew "Jack" Jackson Rye's line? My grandmother was his great neice. (Nora Dale Frederick Cook --her mother was Nancy Rye Frederick). I'm well acquainted with the 3 Rye brothers of the 26th Ala --James is interred in Hagerstown --some 20 minutes away from where I lived. But Will Henry --my gg-father was also draft age in that era and I've been curious as to why he would not have joined up or been conscripted. If you have any information or even speculation, I';d be most interested. Thanks! -Bob Cook, Waynesboro, PA wcarter4ua@comcast.net wrote: Sorry about the previous email. Most of it did not get sent.

I love what you've had to say. My name is Abigail and as a child I hated it and children made fun of it. I used Gail for years but now I proudly go by my real name. I too wear it with honor as it belonged to my maternal grandmother and g-grandmother and also a very brave woman in the bible who ended up being one of King David's wives. Thank you for sharing.

How often have you seen in print an old name that has fallen by the wayside? I just finished reading "Thirteen Moons" by Charles Frazier, he also wrote "Cold Mountain". The story is about an old man telling how he grew up and his relationship with the Cherokee in the Carolinas. Without going into all the details, he learned to speak the language; enabling him to trade with them. It's a good story. Reading along I came across two names that caused me to stop and ponder,how could these names have left such an impression that they were not only used; but passed along to other generations? The names were "Lawan and Utana. My mother, Lottie Belle (Clement) Cox; named my sister LaJuana and me Manona. We considered these names a burden upon us. Our mother always told us if we had a girl we must name her Utanah.....she pronounced it "You-tanah. (Fat chance with the names we had to admit to on the first day of school!) When I asked about the origin of these names, Mom told us they were just some old names. How amazing. I shall carry my name with honor. ************************************** AOL now offers free email to everyone. Find out more about what's free from AOL at http://www.aol.com.

Those voices from long ago. Have you ever walked through a cemetery and thought about there is a story under each grave marker that ought to be told, And the person down there would love for us of this generation to know what their life was like back then?

In or about the year of 1860 and we had our first son James, 1862.War clouds were very black and heavy in our area. Columbus was starting a chare crop hoping to get it made before he had to go to war but that was not to be for while plowing his mule the trace chain came loose while turning at the end of the roe. so stooping down to hook it back the mule kicked him in the head killing him dead. With the help of the neighbors they put Columbus away. Now with all her people the Browns living in Marion County Alabama, and with no means of support for her and her one year old baby boy she had a problem.
