The Tuscaloosa Plow Boys were organized during June 1861, While in camp, they came down with the measles. Because of this the regiment they were originally suppose to join left, and the only regiment left at the camp was the 38th Tennessee Regiment. This is the reason they were never lisited in an Alabama regiment. Roll of Co. G, 38th Tennessee Infantry Organized Tuscaloosa, Alabama 1861 I found a N. J. Waldrop---discharged in Corinth, Mississippi. If any one is looking for the Tuscaloosa Plow Boys , I have three pages of names. Sandra

Looking for information about the John D. Lucky family, primarily Annie Lee Lucky. Born in April 1889, Annie was the daughter of John D. Lucky and Mattie Payne. Annie died in 1914. She was married to Elias Morgan Pack in 1912. They had one child, my husband's grandfather -Jesse Othell Pack.

I am looking for genealogical info on James Thomas and Mary Florence Crosby Yerby. I have a copy of their marriage license. According to the marriage license, James Thomas and Mary Florence Crosby (Mary's surname is hard to read on the license, however. I believe it is Crosby). They were married on April 25, 1920 in Greene Co., AL. I would like to find info about their children, parents and grandparents hoping to find where they place on our Yerby Family Tree. I would appreciate any info or the name of someone that I could contact about this family. Hildred Carlson

I am looking for info on the following: William and Sarah Crow James Melton Jackson WIlliam Melton Jackson Crow's were on the 1850 census for Tallapoosa county and I found 2 likely families on the 1860 for Tuscaloosa. Need more info to confirm though. The 2 listings on the 1860 census seem to conflict because some of the family is on one and the rest is on the other with new names to boot. I guess it could be more family???? Any help appreciated. Andrea monkees5@msn.com

does any one have any thing on young john hardin also can some oe tell me if he is on 1840 -50 census BBarkes barkesms@webtv.net

Hello! I was wondering if anyone would happen to have or knows of someone that has a listing for the Dunns Creek Baptist Church Cemetery? Thank you........

Still searching for any and all information of the family of Dr. William Archibald Leland in Tuscaloosa. Primarily looking for the following people: Percy Warren Leland, born 29 November 1915 in Tuscaloosa, died 26 April 1972 in SC, to a Percy W. Leland and wife Ollie H??? I am hoping these two connect to either Morgan C. Leland or Harry L. Leland. Morgan C. Leland was born abt 1856 and married a Margaretha Kemmler. Harry Lee Leland is found living with his brother William A. Leland, Jr. in 1880. He supposedly married someone named Orpha. Looking for information on the Simonton family. Richard Castlereigh McLester, my 2nd Great-grandfather, married Mary Theresa Simonton in 1841, his brother, James Augustus McLester married Jane Simonton as his 2nd wife in 1847. I believe these two girls are sisters and the daughter of Henry Smith Simonton and his wife Mary Beyers Simonton. They are found in Tuscaloosa in 1840 with 2 girls, one 10-15 and the other 15-20. Any help with this family would also be appreciated. Thanks............ Rick Leland Family Researcher "The Leland Family of Virginia; et al" http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~lelandva

Hi, Rick & fellow listers. These "SIMONTON"s were probably descended from the Scottish "SYMINGTON" family which sent branches into Alabama. Henry Smith Simonton, I believe, was a legislator in old Tuskaloosa before moving on to Louisiana & Texas. During the 1840's there was also another "Simonton" family which later moved to Texas by way of Mississippi and who were connected to the GOULD family of the Carolinas. Here are some links which you may have already found: http://freeweb.pdq.net/pension/simontons.htm http://www.tsha.utexas.edu/handbook/online/articles/view/GG/fgo22.html Morris http://personal.bellsouth.net/~simonsl/msimon.html ----- Original Message ----- From: Rick Leland <rl1946@epix.net> To: <ALTUSCAL-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Thursday, March 21, 2002 10:29 AM Subject: [ALTUSCAL] LELAND-SIMONTON .... > Looking for information on the Simonton family.

I'm researching William Moore, whose CW Muster Roll record shows the following: Signed up for 1 year with the Texas 2nd Regiment Cavalry on April 17, 1865 (transferred from another regiment) in New Orleans, LA. Born in Chambers, Ala. Age 23 Eyes Gray; hair Dark. Complexion Dark; height 5 ft. 9 in. If the roll is correct, he would have been born in 1842 in Chambers, Tuscaloosa Co., AL. Is anyone on the list researching Moores about this time? Thanks, Susan Hudspeth SHUDSPETH@prodigy.net
