In the 1930 census, Mary Ann Toney (widow) and daughter Viola are living together on a farm in the Bratt area. Son James G. Toney lives with his wife Mamie and 4 step kids on a farm nearby. There is a Godwin family with nine family members listed on the same census page between the two Toney households. Viola is the only Toney listed as buried in the "Godwin Cemetery" near Bratt that is transcribed by WFGS in one of their early cemetery publications. Viola's sisters Clara and Mary could be there under married names I guess. Dana could buy William Toney's widow Mary's death certificate to confirm her burial place if she doesn't have it for sure already. She has the exact death date and knows it was in Escambia County it appears. In the 1920 census, Mary A. Toney (widow) and daughters Viola and Mary are living on a farm in the Bratt area. In the 1910 census, Mary (widow) Toney is living on a farm in the Bratt area with son James G. and daughters Viola and Mary. Widow Mary shows there as having had five children and five are still living... In the 1900 census, William B. Toney is still living as the head of the family and they are residing in the Brushy Creek area of Conecuh County, Alabama. He is shown there with wife Mary A., and son James G. and daughters Viola and Mary. That census shows the couple as having been married about 1877 and that Mary has had six children born and only four are living at the time of the census. James died between the 1900 and 1910 census, so he might be buried in either Conecuh County, AL area or Bratt area of Escambia Co., FL? There also may be infants or young Toney's buried in the Conecuh area or their previous home areas based on the entries of 6 born and only 4 living as of the census taking in 1900? In the 1880 census, when they would have been married just three years or so, they are living on a farm in Beat 2 of Elmore County, Alabama [next county north from where Montgomery is]. Shown again as William B. Toney and wife Mary A., they have young daughter Clara who was born in August 1879 living with them. This also could be an area where the two Toney children born to Mary but not alive in 1900 might be buried. In the 1870 census, there is a likely candidate (I can't be sure of course) for our William in the 13 year old son of farmer John Toney and wife (Ravon?) in Township 6, Range W [listed as the Moulton Post Office area] in Lawrence County, Alabama [further north and a little bit west from the 1880 location in Elmore County] who also has a brother Sanford age 15 and a brother Allen age 9. This one seemed the most likely by the age and that both of the parents were born in GA as shown on the 1880 and 1900 census sheets for William B. Toney's parents' birth places. It was the only William at about that age that I could find with both parents from GA. I couldn't find a 3 yr old William Toney in the 1860 census that was a good candidate for our WBT, and couldn't find any Toney's in the Moulton area on any of the 105 pages of the 1860 census for that county. Unless Dana knows for sure that William B. Toney DID come to Florida to live before he died, then I would suggest she inquire at the Evergreen-Conecuh Public Library (ask for Sherry Johnston) to see if they have any Toneys listed in their surname files or in their several good county cemetery books. The above may all be info that Dana already has, but just in case, I thought I'd send it on. Time for bed...WFGS meeting in the AM.

thanks for the info but some years ago i went that route and came up with nothing. I did get a book from there that listed Patsy Jane as being adopted by the person who wrote the book but when i checked the adoption records the children she adopted had altogether different names. I tried to get her heirs to check her notes but they would not do it. So her family history like so many being written without documents and proof are in error for future generations to get the wrong info.

>From The Heritage of Santa Rosa County, Florida, page 49 (edited) Joseph S. Strickland, a Civil War veteran, and his wife, Lollie Aymard, lived in Bagdad. He moved his family to a 400-acre ranch three miles west of Milton and east of Pea Ridge. About 1894, he established the Strickland Cemetery on his property. He gave two acres of land with the understanding that no lot was to be sold but was to be given to the poor. Strickland gave lumber for the caskets and even paid to have them made. The first grave in the cemetery was a Mrs. Howell. Two Strickland children who died of malaria are buried there. Submitted by Jim Brock Source: "A Century of Service" by Anabel Simon Note: A Strickland family story is found on pages 490-491. It lists a son, Joseph, born about 1841, but I cannot confirm this is the same Joseph S. Strickland. Perhaps someone else would know that information. Judy Jolly

Many of the graves from the Navy Yard were moved to St. John's Catholic Cemetery on Old Corry Road.. I do not, however, see the Andress name in the list. Actually, I did not recognize the Cemetery on our Esc. Co. Gen Web site, because it is just listed as St. John's. It would be helpful to call it St. John's Cemetery - Warrington or St. John's Catholic Cemetery on the web page. There are 3 people named Andress in the St. John's Cem. on G. & Belmont, established in 1876. Don't know if they are related. William R. Andress 1887-1977 Dora T. Andress 1889-1982 (married to Wm. R. Andress) Lidia Jane Andress 1841-1925 (wife of Hugh D. White) Cynthia

Evan, My inclination would be that the man was buried in the Old Warrington Cemetery located on NAS. Unfortunately that cannot be proved as there is no listing for an Andress in the Old Warrington Cemetery. If there was no headstone, the body would not have been moved to the present day location within the confines of Barrancas National Cemetery.

I believe she needs the Death Records to ascertain their burial place. Evan ----- Original Message ----- From: dana To: [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, August 07, 2007 7:40 PM Subject: Godwin Cemetery I am looking for information on William Toney and his wife Mary Ann Green Toney. I have no proof that he is buried there. I have very little information on him. Just a possible birth of June 1857 in Georgia. She was born Jan 1853 and died Oct 12, 1932. They had 4 children Clara Lee, James Green , Viola, and Mary Ann. They are all buried there as well. I have been searching for over 20 years and have not found anything on him. Could you possibly help in finding where he is buried.

Boards, I have looked around in my resources, and can't find anything to help this fellow---anyone else have ideas?? ----- Original Message ----- From: andressw To: [email protected] Sent: Sunday, August 26, 2007 8:17 PM Subject: A burial in Santa Rosa County Dear Mr. Strohl, You name appears as a contact for the cemeteries in your area so I am taking the liberty of contacting you for guidance. I do not know the proper procedure for locating such information so I am seeking your help. I am nearing 70 and would like to seek out the burial of my great grandfather before I am too old to do so. My great grandfather, Madison Knox Milton Andress, a shipwright in the Warrington area, died shortly after the birth of his son, my grandfather, Bertram Knox Andress in 1868. His widow, my great grandmother took my grandfather and moved to Arkansas shortly afterwards. I go to the Pensacola area every year and stop and look in old looking cemeteries but to no avail. Would you be so kind as to identify cemeteries that would have been in operation 1868-1870in which a shipwright, probably protestant, would have been buried. Thank you so much for any assistance you may be able to give me. Sincerely, Will Knox Andress
