Hi Paula, Can you tell me if you are looking in the time period of Alexanders sister? Ann Britt is the only sister that is shown for sure as his sister. By the 1860 census of Choctaw Co, Miss. Ann is in the home of William, her brother and lists her, I believe, as being 32 and a spinster. A person that has informed me on Ann has the family bible and has Ann dying July 5, 1885. If there was a marriage for her, I just don't know. I have daughters showing for Alexander's brother, William. He was married 3 times and had daughters from two marriages. Several of them, but do not know if any of them came to Ark. Also Squire Thomas Britt said to be Alexander's brother produced several daughter, again no knowledge of them coming to Ark. Alexander has only one daughter that I cannot account for and that is Juliana Britt b abt 1840. His other daughter was named Demarias and she was married to Eli Winslow and # 2 Abram Mays. Harriet, another daughter, the oldest, of Alexanders, was named in Alexander's will as his "afflicted" daughter, and her gravestone bears her single name and I feel sure she was never married. Your Longs certainly could be fit in there somewhere....and I especially wonder about this Juliana Britt. Thomas F. Britt, son of Alexander also produced several daughters in Jackson Co., Ark. but this would have been after the Civil War. Not knowing for sure what time period we are looking for, leaves me a little in the dark. I appreciate your response to my inquiry. Regards, Barbara

No, ma'am. My people were not in the time period of which you spoke.
