Hi I am looking for information on the Gilchrist family in Morgan county Alabama. Can anyone help? Thanks Fred

Talucah is a small community up in east Morgan Co close to Valhermoso Springs and Lacys Springs. There are several cemeteries in the area.

Pleasant THOMPSON married Martha GULLEY d/o Thomas and Elizabeth (Massey) Gulley. Thomas Gulley b. abt 1815 Marshall Co. TN Elizabeth (Massey) Gulley b abt 1820 Marshall Co. TN The family moved to Limestone Co. AL sometime between 1849 & 1853 Martha Gulley b about 1853 in Limestone Co. AL married Pleasant Thompson 1/9/1873. Pleasant Thompson was born somewhere in TN about 1850. Martha Gulley's death and burial is unknown. Children are: (Twins) Susie Betty & Oscar Annie Saint Elmore Second Marriage: Sallie Taylor b. 6/23/1869 d 2/14/1908 Pleasant & Sallie married 2/22/1893 Limestone Co. AL Children: (3 known)---Owen P., Bessie, and David all were born in Limestone Co. Sallie Taylor THOMPSON is buried in Limestone Co. AL her son, David is buried in Limestone Co. Sallie died 2/14/1908. In the 1910 census Pleasant is listed as a widow with Owen P., Bessie, and David in his household. I'm stumped. Haven't checked the 1920 census he could have still been living. I have other info. up to 1910 and I'm stuck there. It is my hope one of Pleasant's descendants will recognize a connection. Pleasant and his children lived in Limestone Co from 1873 to 1910 according to my research. If this sounds familiar, please let me hear from you. If any of this sounds familiar contact me, we may can make a connection. I will appreciate any bit of info. no matter how small. Thank you. Ann GaJr217@aol.com <><><><><><><><>

What are the earliest tax list for Morgan Co? Has anyone published any of them? Can anyone on the list tell me where I might find the bastardy bonds in Morgan Co.? I have asked several in Morgan Co but they don't seem to know to what I am referring. (For those that don't know on the list...when a woman had a child out of wedlock..she was "fined" by the county for helping raise the child...unless she named the father..then they "fined" him. When this took place a bond was set and usually a relative posted the bond for the woman...or the man which ever the case may have been...thru my years of genealogy I have seen an instance where a woman apparently had an affair..her husband refused to "claim" the child and she was put in the bastardy courts.) Thanks Kathy

Hello Betty, Thank you for your help! I believe a closer time frame for the marriage would be between 1953-1956. Mr.? Sparks family was from the Huntsville area. I am not sure if they got married in Morgan or Madison County? Thank you for your help! Groom: SPARKS, Mr. Bride: NORTHROP, Betty J. Date: 1953-1956

Hello, Does anybody do marriage look ups? I am trying to locate a marriage record for a Betty Northrop to Mr. Sparks from Huntsville, Alabama. I believe they got married in the 1950's. Any help would be appreciated! Sandra

Hello, Does anybody know if the old courthouse near the Somerville/Cotaco area is occupied? If so....what's in it? I'm planning to go cemetery hunting in the area with my dad and thought I would tour the old courthouse if it wasn't occupied. Sincerely, Kim Ivey mailto:kivey@companet.net

Nahhhh.... why shud you be enny defernt from the rest of us? :: grin :: /me shrugs. Besides, I never *have* been able to spell genealogy! At least not the same way twice. :o) I noted the httl, but didn't want to be nit picky. <ahem> <cough> <cough> And on that subject, the standard computerese shortcut for rolling on the floor laughing is "ROFL", I believe, Kath. /me scratches her head. Course, now that I think about it, I'd never seen <GR> until I met you... as it had always been <g>s. One of the major earlier online services sort of 'grandfathered' shorthand, even coming out with "face" [:o) <<--- smile ] and "shorthand" dictionaries. Must be that western accent of yours! :o) Have a wunnerful day.... !!

ROTF (rolling on the floor laughing) I bet you all are voting to get a new listowner<GR> Boy talk abt the errors I sent last night...I need to learn to use spell ck. I not only misspelled genealogy..I forgot to put shoppe and then when I made the correction I see I put httl: instead of http: in my writing...long day yesterday..OKC early..moved my furniture..and did a lecture at Shawnee, OK last night...but so I make sure you all get the correct url: http://www.genealogyshoppe.com/almorgan/index.htm Good luck in your search! Kathy

Adrian: Yes, I have family that left SC and moved to AL early 1800s -- Britnell's. James, Joseph, or possible Joseph Fletcher. Kathleen Nodine knodine@juno.com

I stand corrected again<GR>..what I get for typing in quickly and doing it when I am tired...here is the correct spelling of the url... http://www.genealogyshoppe.com/almorgan/index.htm Also I am very bad abt not typing in httl:// since aol does not require me to..but some ISP's do require you to do so...Betty this may be the reason you are getting an error...I just went to all the pages and go in fine...please let me know if you continue to have problems. Good luck in your search! Kathy

Betty I have the 1850 Morgan Co census posted on the website: www.genealolgy.com/almorgan/index.htm Also if you get to visit the Morgan Co. Genealogical Society, Inc. - I donated an 1850 scanned cd of the census. Good luck in your search! Kathy

I did not get the address quite right. It is http://www.glorecords.blm.gov/search/search.asp. We need to add a link on the Morgan County web page. Good luck, Barbara

I stand corrected on the US Land Grants. It is the BLM, not the USGS. The site is http://www.glorecords.blm.gov/search/
