Hi Bill, I would love to compare information with you. I am trying to prove that John & Tabitha were the parents of my 2nd Great Grandfather James F. (Autry) Ortery born Mar 2, 1852 in SC. All I really have on John & Tabitha is the information that I have been collecting from the census. I do have John & Tabitha on the 1850 census, then John must have died before 1860 as he is not on the 1860 census. I cannot find Tabitha on the 1870 census, but did find her son William and living with him is his younger brother George and his younger sister Martha. I am trying to locate the two older girls on the 1870 census now to see if I can find Tabitha living with one of them. Do you know when either one of them (John or Tabitha) died? Email me directly at rodymo@mindspring.com, I would love to hear from you.

Both my John and your John hold similar birth & death dates, their spouses both born in SC around the same time. Because of this researchers on confusing these two ladies and combinding their information. I have found 3 maiden names for the wife of my John, BUSH, REA, MC BRIDE. Our John's I am sure are related somehow, so please keep me in mind if you should find information on his parents. Here is what I found on your family. 1860 Lott's (?) PO, Edgefield County page 23...

I know I had found Lewis & Margaret Claxton on the 1880 Census which list more of their children, but cannot seem to find the notes right now, but will get that to you as well. John & Telitha were married 4 Nov 1841 in Edgefield County, SC. I am going to assume that Telitha died 18 Aug 1907 and is buried in Johnston, Edgefield County, SC. The death date is listed for the Tabitha Rea I am searching, but seems would fit your Telitha more. Hope the information helps, I know it has been some time since these messages were posted and this may be old news to you by now. If you should have anything on my John Autry, I would love to hear from you. Good luck on your search. Robin

A couple of Sarah Tillery Autry & John Larkin Gunters children went to Utah. They were Mormons. You can find all that info at my family website at www.tribalpages.com/tribes/j48c51 Don't think all the people listed there are all my family, I have my husband's listed there also--thus--"All Our Ancestors-From A-Z". I will check out the Tippah Co. website here at rootsweb. I found the census at www.census-online.com

Regarding John C Autry (my GGF): One child, or two, were born in Mississippi per the 1850 Crawford Co Ark census. It is hard to tell if the second child was born in "MI or MO", at least on the films I have seen. But he was in Crawford Co, AR, by 8-19-46 when he married Mrs Margaret Hinds. This accounts for the gap in children from the first wife and second wife, Marg Mattix (HInds). This was about the only time he did not produce a child every two years!, which I guess is how he got to 19 children?? I think Richard Autry (or I?) posted the land deed of John C and Sarah Autry in Tippah Co, MS on the net a few weeks ago. I believe it was in 1843. As usual, the surname of the wife was not given. So there is a little more info that seems documentable. Robert Autry Brooks

John doesn't show up in any of the following census for Tippah Co., so apparently he had left the area by 1850. Could have very well gone to SC.

I would like the information you have on Sara Ann Tillery of S. C. I have a lot of Tillerys in my family from that area. Juanita Autry wja4032@donobi.net

As mentioned in prior notes, I think the John Autry in Tippah, Co, Mississippi, in 1940 is John C. Autry, who is listed on page 276 of the Autry/Culbreth book. Unfortunately, this information was not known at that time, although the name of the second wife, Margaret Ann Mattix (Hinds) , had just been identified. It was always apparent that there was probably a first wife, and now it appears to be Sarah ____. The marriage to Margaret Ann Mattix was confirmed later by publishing of some newspapers in Crawford Co, Ark, (listed as John C Otery) where he was in 1850. He then went to TX and is in the 1860 census of Denton Co, TX. Then in 1870 back in Sebastian Co, Ark, where he died and is buried at Greenwood, Ark. There are just too many "John Autry's" Robert Autry Brooks

We did correspond on the Autry line. And I got so disgusted trying to find out anything beyond my great-grandfather that I quit for many years. Believe it or not, I'm still almost as much in the dark about my John Autry. When I corresponded with you before, I thought John AUTRY's wife was Sarah BOATRIGHT, but as it turned out her name was Sarah Ann TILLERY, b 1819 SC. They had apparently one son only, William Henry Harrison AUTRY, b 31 Dec 1841 in Edgefield District, SC. (He often went by Harrison.) John AUTRY must have died sometime between 1840-44, and Sarah remarried John Larkin GUNTER(went by Larkin). Their first child was born in Dec of 1844 in SC. Harrison AUTRY gave his father's place of birth as TN in the 1880 Census, and his mother b SC. I still haven't thrown out the possibility that he(John) was also married to a Sarah BOATRIGHT. As for him being in Tippah Co.,Miss. in 1840--it is possible, he seemed to move about enough to keep me from being able to find him in any census with Sarah. Maybe I need to be checking out the census in Miss. since I can't find them in SC yet. It sure would have made it easier now, if the census records before 1850 had listed the names of wives. Thanks for the reply, I will give Tippah Co.,Miss. a try. Hope your own research has gone very well during the past years.

The book in some cases had copies of marriage bonds, photos of tombstones which helps to prove the lineage. I tried for some time to get several deeds referenced in the book which would prove that William (Page) Autry was the son of Cornelius (original immigrant). The land deeds I have seen indicate that Wm Autry is more likely relatied to Alex Autry than necessarily a son of Cornelius Autry.

I can easily see how Mayo Bundy may have had notes about the deed and somehow arrived at William Page Autry. This deed is mentioned on page 5 of Bundy's 1996 revised book. No mention is made of Cornelius in this deed. Under a heading, "MORE SAMPSON COUNTY AUTRY RECORDS 1784 - 1800" on page 6 of the Bundy book, it states "In Deed Book B, p. 392 (1763) and Deed Book F, p. 432 (1774) Cornelius Autry deeds land to William Page Autry, his son. This could be a clue that Cornelius Autry's wife was a Page and the mother of the eleven children detailed in this publication." I wrote Sampson County for these two deeds, Deed Book B, p. 392 (1763) and Deed Book F, p. 432 (1774), which I had hoped would establish the relationship between William and Cornelius "the immigrant". The response which I got from Sampson County was that no such Deed Books existed. So I tried Cumberland County, NC for same Deed Books- same response-no such Deed Books mentioning Autry (or name variations thereof ) So then I tried Pitt County.

Hello everyone! Hey that Alamo Movie is coming out in a week. I was curious how they are going to portray Micajah Autry in the movie and low and be ho, there is a Alamo the movie website. I went and viewed it, its very well done. Wow I am excited to see the movie and it showed who will portray Micajah Autry. The URL for the movie's website is at http://alamo.movies.go.com/intro.html watch the trailer and if you click under davy crockett, it will show Micajah Autry. One of his letters to his wife is printed there. I hope some of you out there will go and see the movie and might want to discuss Micajah after seeing the movie. I am really curious how they will say his name. I have heard it in two different versions. Southern Texan drawl and with a spanish (silent J) twang. Sara J. Greer There is a fine line between "hobby" and "mental illness."
