DR, Do you have access to the census records? 1880 Warren Co Bovina MS: David Holte 26 MS MS MS Harriette 25, MS MS SC Aaron Howard, age 5 nephew. 1870 Warren Co family # 157 Family # 161 Joseph Howard 27 GA Robert B Scott VA Dora 19 MS Henrietta Alexander 15 MS Elizabeth Alexander 63 SC Olliver Lisk 9 MS 1860 Warren Co Vicksburg: R Alexander 45 MS Elizabeth 50 SC Harriet 6 MS I Lisk 26 Sarah Lisk 22 The 1900 Census shows David to be married to his wife of 1 year, Ellen 27 The 1910 census shows David M married 3 times and wife Mary E married 2 The extra surnames in these families on different census years appear to tie them together. If you would like to see the actual census pages, email me privately. Fran Bolton In a message dated 9/15/2006 11:06:56 A.M.

During a recent visit to the reservation at Philadelphia, Ms., I was told that if her name was Alexander, she would not have been buried in any of the res's cemeteries. How do I go about tracing her parents, etc., when I have no idea of their Native American names? Any advice on how to proceed would be greatly appreciated. [email protected]
