At this point in my searches, I can only say there is a connection thru my Long Family line to Alabama & Georgia, but I don't know what counties. My great grandfather William P. Long (born July, 1852) appears in the 1880 Census rolls for Sevier Co, AR, and his birthplace is listed as Alabama. Wife Tamsey's birthplace is listed as Tennesee. In the 1900 Census for Saline, Sevier Co, AR, William P. Long's parents' birthplaces are both listed as Georgia. It's possible that his son, Wilson Buford Long was named for someone in your family line, but I've not been able to document anyone further back than William P. Long. It would be wonderful if we could find him in the earier census rolls for AL/GA, don't you think? Jerry Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.
