All i knew is that my ggmother, Bernice Robinson Shiver b. 1894 in Buena Vista, Monroe Cty, AL, later living in Robinsonville, Atmore,Escambia Cty, AL and her sister Alma RObinson Walters attended school @ a boarding school. So it would've been perhaps sometime in the early to mid 1900's i suppose. and probably around that area. Where can i find out more info on this Shofner School? Thanks for your help!

I will check my records and see what I can find out. My Henderson line is from the Belleville and Castleberry areas of Conecuh County. David F. Henderson immigrated from Ireland to England abt 1790, then to American on board ship-- David Henderson had sons: David, Daniel R., Ely, John M. & Isam. I have more, but will have to save it for another time. You may contact me direct at [email protected] and we'll see what else we can find on this Henderson line. I was in Wilcox and Monroe Counties a few weeks ago, and found several Henderson's buried in cemeteries in those areas.
