    1. Re: Phillip Andrews murdered in Monroe Co., AL-1898
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/Wm.2ADEB/948.1022.1.1.1.1.1.1.1 Message Board Post: You and I are indeed related lady! and I worked for The South Alabamian for about a year when I graduated from college in 1975. What a small world! It was through my job there that I found about Phillip's demise. I am currently at work downtown Atlanta presently, and dont have all the info at hand, but Ada had several siblings although I cant recall without the paperwork all the names. I did not get to know many of them with the exception of Rosa. Most had died by the time I was old enough to appreciate them as people. I will pull the paper to night and get back to you a list of names. The brother you speak of is my grandfather, Lucian Hybart Andrews. I grew up in Daphne, and Lucian and his wife Birdie; most of their children (my parents, aunts and uncles and a grandchild), Semm and several Glovers. are all interred in Belforest Cemetery out from Daphne. I was down a couple of months ago to attend a tragic family funeral...that of the 25 year old daughter of my first c! ousin, Lucia whose father Lucian H. Jr. was a brother to my dad. (She had had severe diabetes and apparently caught a fatal virus. More on that story later) Sisters Rosa and Hattie (they are some both somewhat famous, more on that later too) lived in Fairhope as did Semm and Claud whom I beleive may be the twin you speak of. Greatgrandmother Marian Frances Brantley died in childbirth, and my sister and I have reason to beleive she may have had two sets of twins that died as well. There are unmarked graves near her and husband Phillip's site. Ann, please do us and the family a favor ...start checking area newspapers for info. There are a number of us seeking info and there may be ads in these papers. My sister and I spent Memorial Day weekend in PineApple(which is the general vicinity of where we originated) scouring cemeteries and papers and talking to folks. I was told an andrews reunion was in the making somewhere around the Rabun, AL area and am looking for info on! it. Keep your eyes open lady. We are about to embark on the adventu re of our lifetime! Talk to you soon.
