My oldest ancestor in Marshall Co. is my gggrandmother, Jemima WILSON. The earliest I can find her is on Sept 5, 1859 in Marshall Co. AL, when she marries William J. BRIGHT. According to census information Jemima WILSON BRIGHT was born ca. 1825/1832 in Alabama. There are several WILSON families in the Marshall Co. area pre 1850, but in over 10 years I have never been able to connect Jemima to them. When Jemima married William BRIGHT she already had two sons. George W.E.?, and Andrew Levi WILSON my ggrandpa. These boys are said to have never known who their father was, and to have believed they were illegitimate. Please, does any one have a WILSON family pre 1850 in and around Marshall Co. with an unidentified daughter near my Jemima's age?

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/SS.2ADE/110.113 Message Board Post: We are looking for the family of Ella Wilson who was married to Sherrod Webb b: 18 Jun 1880, TN. They had one daughter; Anna "Annie" Frances Webb b:4 Oct 1898 in Northern Alabama. Annie died on 18 May 1936 in Decatur,Morgan County,Alabama. We have not been able to find out anything about Annie's mother, Ella Wilson. Annie married John Lee Brown in 1915. The Brown family was from Morgan, Marshall, Blount and Marshall Counties, Alabama. So chances are the Wilson family that Ella belongs to was from somewhere in that area. Would anyone have a clue as to who Ella Wilson was?

I am lookig for info on a Fredrick Marshall Taylor, (b. 1881, d. 1928 Buffalo, NY) son of Robert and Elizabeth Taylor (maybe born around 1860), brother to Peter, William,Robert. Husband to Dora Dehn. Not sure of birth area but did have some time in Canada and NY. JKROund@starband.net

Roe had a brother named James, born abt. 1893. Their parents were John Calvin MOORE, born April, 1873, in Randolph County, Alabama, and Elizabeth HALE, born January, 1873. Both Roe and James were born in Randolph County, but the family moved to Marshall County some time after 1900. I believe they lived in the Guntersville area. Not sure about that. John Calvin MOORE also had a brother named James, born July, 1868. James also moved to Marshall County (by 1900) in the Red Apple community (which I think is in the Boaz area). James was known to my grandmother as Uncle Buddy. He married Mollie (maiden name unknown) and they had William A., b. June, 1890, and an adopted daughter, Charlcie SWAN, b. abt. 1904. William married Ethel (maiden name unknown) about 1908 and had a child, Willie B., born abt. Nov. 1909. Both James and John Calvin may have had more children of which I am not aware. The parents of John Calvin and James were Archibald Judge MOORE and Rebecca (maiden name unknown). Let me know if you see a connection. Pam

Anyone out there descended from Roe MOORE, born about 1897? Looking for cousins to share family history. Pam

Kim I am so very sorry to see you go. I know that often we must do what we sometimes don't want, but you will be missed. This is the best genealogy list I know of anywhere. If I had the time I would try to pick it up and keep it going. But that time I don't have. I certainly hope someone does.

Just a note to let you know that I have updated my website filled with Alabama genealogy information: http://huntsville.about.com/cs/genealogy1/index.htm If you have a personal website for your ALABAMA genealogy family and would like me to add it to the Personal WebPages section, please send me the URL AND a short description. As long as you have a significant amount devoted to Alabama, I will consider including it. I am also looking for Alabama Cemeteries links for a new category. Good luck in your research!
