I am looking for specific information on Sarah STIGGINS, age 30 on the 1860 Monroe Co. Census, married to Henry CONWAY. I have misplaced my notes on Sarah. What was her relationship to Joseph STIGGINS and Nancy GREY? Are there still any STIGGINS researchers on the list who can help me with Sarah and Henry? I have their marriage date and children, etc., but how did she fit into the STIGGINS family? Thanks! Evelyn S. Leslie [email protected]

I am using Ancestry.com

thanks for responding, however I am searching for CLARKEM countians. Sallie was born 1869; Lanalee in 1867; Emma in 1875 and Jennie in 1877.

Is there any countywide cemetery book in print or in the formative stage?

The Old Federal Road had at least 3 stagestops with inns/taverns, along the Monroe Co. / Conecuh Co. borderline. Duncan McMillan's is marked by a commemorative stone. Is there any marker stone, or even ruins, for the B. Bell site north of McMillan's?

Has a Family Bible ever been discovered for David H. Bell (1783-1848) of Bell's Landing, which would list the names and birthdates of his children? Also, do I need to hire an individual to obtain actual copies of old documents (an 1835 crop mortgage between young David Bell and Nathan Bell), or does a clerk routinely handle such requests? Are there any male Bell descendants out there who are interested in yDNA testing, to compare and verify which Bell lineage we are? Is our Alabama/South Carolina lineage tied into David H. Bell's North Carolina lineage? Is there anything left of the 1837 B. Bell Stagestop & Inn along the Old Federal Road, or are all remnants wiped out?

Helen, OK, I figured this out. You found Sallie Dean and her sisters in Clarke Co., AL. If you had the microfilm for this census, you could go to the page just before Sallie's page. Because of the way Ancestry.com has it online, you cannot do that. However, I went to www.familysearch.org (with the LDS church) and they have the 1880 census transcribed online, for free. I found Sallie and it is listed the same as in the census, showing Sallie, Laualee (Lauralee?), Emma, and Jennie as a household, but you know that isn't so because Sallie, the eldest of this group, is only 11 and she is listed as daughter. However, the LDS sight has the ability to go to the previous household which shows that she is the daughter of Andrew, age 52, and his wife, Maryann, age 44. This is a black family just in case you didn't know. They can be found in the census on page 316D, Jackson (the town), Clarke Co., AL. When I went back to Ancestry.com and entered Andrew Dean, he was on the bottom of page 316D (4 of 21). Sometimes the census takers mixed up pages like this, and then when the pages were microfilmed, they could have been messed up in order, too. I have seen this happen before. Then again, I looked at the 1870 census and found that a son, Samuel, is listed as 6/12 in age who could actually be Sallie. Hmm.... And as you know, we will not find Andrew or his family in the 1860 or previous census records.

Helen, From the description you gave, it seems that you are using either Ancestry.com or genealogy.com to search for your ancestor. The page numbers are actually quite different from 1 of 21, etc. I looked in Ancestry.com and they do not list a Sallie or Sally Dean or Deen. There are a couple of Sarahs, though, and Sallie/Sally was often a nickname for Sarah. Now, what is needed to help you narrow this down is anything you can tell us about Sallie and her sisters. Do you know about when they were born? Did they have any brothers? Were they born in AL. I realize that you may be trying to use the census to answer all these questions but anything you can tell us about them will help us try help you find them and who they were living with. And is it Monroe County where you are searching.

I presume you are searching in the Monroe County, AL 1880 census. Can you say about when Sallie was born? When were the other children born?

This is a plea for help with understanding the 1880 census: In looking up the name, Sallie Dean, on the 1880 census, I am sent to page 4 of 21, however I found her on page 1 of 21. The problem is that she is one of 4 daughters (Sallie is first on page) but I can't find the head of the household. Please help. Sisters are Emma, Lanalee and Jennie. hunting in Alabama
