Microfilm in the Birmingham library only dates back to the  1940s for the Mountain Eagle and I need an obituary from 1901. Elvira  Traywick Feltman was my ggg grandmother; she died 6/24/1901 at the home  of  her son-in-law (the O'Rears, if I remember correctly), in Haleyville,  but the obituary was in the Mountain Eagle on July 3, 1901. She is buried in  Files Cemetery. She was the mother of 15 children, including daughters Martha Jane (who married Files), Sarah (who married O'Rear) and Nancy Margaret (who married Burdick).  I have a general transcription of the obituary and  used to have a copy of the obit (I think) but I have looked for months and  cannot find it.  The Jasper library is not open on weekends and I was  told requests were not handled via phone. I've got a good handle on the  Kikers I was looking for, who moved from Walker County to Oklahoma, and now I  am looking into the same thing for Manascos. I have seen information alleging  that Catherine Elizabeth Kiker's first child, General Lee Kiker, was the child  of John Manasco who was a farm hand on the property next to her home (they  never married), and that some Walker County Manascos also migrated to OK.  Catherine Kiker married and was widowed twice after that. but she stayed in  Walker County. So I am looking for the Manasco Cemetery and any information on  Walker County Manascos that moved to OK in the early 1900s. Thanks for  any help on these two issues. **************A Good Credit Score is 700 or Above. See yours in just 2 easy steps!
