Bob Linzey, Just a short note to let you know that I got the death certificates for Robert H. Henderson & Minnie Crocker. Robert's DC didn't hold much info at all, but Minnie's lists her parents as Bob Henderson & Sara Redman. I'm looking at a family in the 1850 Census from Briar Hill, AL that lists Sarah F. Redman (born in GA) @ the right age and the father is Job Redman. PLB

Confederate Rest is FOR SALE by the American Legion Post 199 in Fairhope, Alabama. The property comprises between 2.5 to 4 acres of land located in the Lakewood Subdivision at Point Clear (near the Grand Hotel). Land in that subdivision, if any could be found, would sell in the neighborhood of $300,000-$500,000 per acre. Confederate Rest Cemetery was donated for the burial of Confederate soldiers by Colonel Ketchum, CSA in 1863. New evidence suggests approximately 575 Confederates are buried in at least 3 long trenches "stacked like cord wood." Most died after being moved from Vicksburg to the Confederate Hospital located at Point Clear. There are supposedly 2 large burial plots containing the body parts of Confederate amputees. Confederate Rest has been maintained and honored by several groups since Colonel Ketchum's original donation in 1863. The Eastern Shore Memorial Society donated/sold it to the American Legion in the 1960s as they no longer could maintain it. **************** > EASTERN SHORE POST 199 > AMERICAN LEGION June 2, 2006 > > > Dear Smith; > > First, let me thank you for your interest in our Confederate Rest > Cemetery. > Also, we appreciate your kind words regarding our fallen Comrade, the > irreplaceable Claude Arnold, as well. > > As to a possible transfer or sale of the Cemetery property, that has been > properly addressed in accordance with established Legion protocols. > Serious > and bonafide offers will be considered based on their merits through Mr. > Larry Hipsch. > > We appreciate your efforts to date, and intend, for the mean time, to > allow > your group's continued use of the property for ceremonial purposes.

The town is definitely Brundidge, my grandmother was born and grew up there and my great grandfather was mayor for years!

Susie - I would be grateful. Yes, I have a copy of your book with the article about JJ. I don't know who furnished the information to the newspaper about JJ, most of it was accurate, but there were some discrepancies in the information about his father from what we have been able to document, but with the documented information, I was still able to get in the DAR and Huguenot Society as well as Colonial Dames, Founders and Patriots, etc. Thanks, Rusty Macon Weber

If she was a Macon, then most definitely - other Pike Co surnames are Rainey, Johnson, Sessions, McDonald. My g grandfather was Jacob Jackson Macon, long time minister of Springhill Baptist Church. His second wife was Amanda McDonald, daughter of Jonathan Colbert McDonald and Susannah Sessions. Their son George Colbert Macon married Leota Gladys Rainey, daughter of Daniel Thomas Rainey and Minnie Bea Johnson. Susannah Sessions parents are reported to be John and Sarah Sessions. I was told that there was a newspaper article - "Troy Messenger, Pike Co. Ala. newspaper article 14 Oct 1877 on Mrs. Sarah Sessions Born 22 Dec 1776 N. Car. & widow of John Sessions Age 72 in 1850 census Alive in Pike Co. 1877, nearly 101 years old per newspaper article." Does anyone know if a copy of this article might be available and how to go about obtaining a copy? Rusty Macon Weber

I have the newspapers on microfilm. If you will give me a little time I will look it up and get you a copy. There is an article on J.J. Macon which was in the paper in one of my earlier publications by the Historical Society which has a lot of info about him. and mentions his first wife Nancy C. Bates.
