I felt like I would receive a few answers, but not hundreds. Evidently, the subject matter was close to home and many joined in with information to share. I am sorry you see this request for information about our ancestors as spam and takes up space. But I do not regret placing the question , for I have gained valued information for my book about my ancestors and yours also. By the way , I am researching Sarah Catherine Alexander who married Joseph R. Waldrop ,in the mid 1850s. They married somewhere near Crittenton, Arkansas. Some of my Waldrop ancestors are buried in Stuttgart, Arkansas. I am not sure how you spell this name Stuagart, Waldrop ancestors are buried in a Cemetery there. Thank you for information you can share. I am in Georgia, if I can help you in any areas in Washington County, Alabama, let me know. I have , whild researching my ancestors gathered info about other families traveling with them from the Carolina, traveling towardsVirginia, Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas and Texas. The Waldrops married into the families of Throntons, Scotts, Higgingbottoms,Heards, Richardsons, Alexander, Thomas, Baxter, My Baxters married into the families of Deas, Cooper, Longs, Turners, Dearmans, Lopers, McGuires , Woulards , Willifords Buckalews, Willifords and more in Alabama and Mississippi. I ask for information, and I am always happy to pass on any information that I have Gathered. Berry is my gr gr grandpapa's middle name. Green Berry Waldrop. Stories go that in the Reverend War there were two Generals named , one Green and the other Berry. The familles named their children after the Reverend War like after the Civil War , Southerners named their children Lee. My middle name is Lee and we have at least twelve "Lees" including inlaws. I have found in the early 1800s many named their children Green , Berry , Green Berry or Greenberry. Then we have the surname Berry. Have you researched the Berry name. We have the surname Berry here in Georgia. A friend of ours was the daughter of Dr. Arthur Berry , he was born in the very early 1900s maybe 1906 or 1910. He wasn't from Georgia, he moved here in the 1840s. I really do not know where he moved from. His name is pretty popular his sister and brothers were well know in the State of Georgia and had roads named after them and other things. BJ, I will be more than happy to share with you . Arkansas had certainly come thru for me in my question, "Are we related to our Ancestors." Have a good day. Sandra maiden name Waldrop Georgia
