--WebTV-Mail-23348-1093 Content-Type: Text/Plain; Charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7Bit Let me try to explain how i am related. My mother's sister was Mandy Jane Clark born abt. abt 1890 married General Clayton Brackin born 1889. I think in Henry County. Mandy Clark Brackin's granddaughter Elma Ann Ruediger married Clayton Alter Tew born 1944. >From the info i have they were from Dothan Al. but was living in Tallahassee Fl in 1992. But Clay's parents were still living in Dothan i think. My uncle William Harvey Clark and Aunt Mandy Clark Brackin. were bro and sister to my mom. Roxie Ann Clark Ezell. From my understanding. These Clark bros and sisters were sold or given away when they were very young. My Uncle William Harvey was given to an Uncle Bill Clark in Dothan when he was abt 2 yrs old. Aunt Mandy had told that she was sold for a plug of tobacco and a jug of whiskey. Uncle Will Clark and Aunt Mandy Brackin met after they were married and their children were going to the same school in Houston county near Cottonwood Al. My mom was raised by her stepmother. I found her in the 1900 Henry county census. She was 12 yrs old and a bro Thomas L. Clark 11 yrs old. A step sister Maxie V. Clark 4 yrs old. My grandfather had remarried a Lucy Day in 1895. They had Uncles and Brothers who had moved to Fl. So far i have found 3 bros and 2 sisters of my mom's. But there were lots more. Didn't mean to write so much, but when i start talking, i never know when to stop.

The stories of long ago in Holmes County brought back some precious memories to me also when I went to visit my Great grandparents, Papa-Peter W. Tew and grammy, Sarah Charlotte Stewart Tew. It was specially thrilling to this little girl age 5, 6 (about as far back as my memory takes me)when the rolling store would come around. Grammy always bought us a piece of peppermint candy and bananas when she could. Grammy & Papa lived out on a clay road which is now 177 west of Bonifay which is only a few miles out of Bonifay but it seemed like another world when we would get to go to town riding the mule and wagon. Us kids would ride a while, then jump off and run awhile. It was nearly impossible to travel on after a heavy rain. Slipping and sliding everywhere. I had my first taste of "Cane" chewing, the cane coming from Papa's cane patch. We used to have a great time playing in the cane patch. It was sooooooooooooo quiet back in the country, specially at night. All you could hear was the chirping of the crickets, and croaking frogs. AND, Grammys mantel clock that went tick, tock, tick, tock. I now have several "mantel" or wall clocks that go "tick, tock" and chime on the hour and half hour, that brings back all those sweet memories. We also used to go up under Grammy & Papas house which was sort of high off the ground (at least it was to a little 6 year old) we would play "doodle bug, doodle bug, your house is on fire" The old house is gone now :( a large brick home now sits up on the hill where the old house was. Oh how sweet those memories are. It was for these reasons I wanted to host the Holmes website. Thanks for these Tews. I don't have these particular ones in my database so I will keep them for later when I can tie them in. Are you connected to the Tews? I have Tew info that goes back to about 1715. (thanks to a very generous "cousin" that shared his info with me, he will read this most likely and know who he is, thanks V, won't ever forget you) I haven't entered all the info that he sent me in my Family Tree Maker software yet.

Hi listers, I have enjoyed all the "memories" ie....icebox, cotton picking, marbles, camp ground meeting, and more that has been the topic of discussion on the Holmes list for the past several days. You may have just read a few of my own memories in my previous posting to Jimmie. This has given me an idea for another "Topic" or category to put on the website. "DOWN MEMORY LANE" How about it readers, would this topic be of interest to see on the website. Do we have enough readers who would like to share your memories of times spent in Holmes County? If you would like to share your memories (and I hope you will), please send them to me. We will open another topic for the website, your name and email address will be included with your entry unless you specify otherwise. Let me hear from you. Be sure to put: DOWN MEMORY LANE in the subject line and send them to me: AHall10643@aol.com This will help me sort my mail easier. Looking forward to hearing from "LOTS" of you. Ann PS.....They don't have to be your "personal" memories but memories that your parents, grandparents, shared with you. etc. etc. Ann Marlow Hall Coordinator for <A HREF=" http://www.rootsweb.com/~flholmes/holmes.htm"> http://www.rootsweb.com/~flholmes/holmes.htm</A> Cathy Popp Co-coordinator Cathy@sw.rr.com List Administrator for: FLHolmes-L@rootsweb.com TEW-L@rootsweb.com My surnames are: Marlow, Dykes, Tew, Stewart, Paine, Hall, Toole and others.

My Shiver family married into the Payne/Paine family in SC in late 1700's, both boys and girls. They then came into South GA before some of them came into AL in the early 1800's. About 25 years ago, I was in contact with one Payne descendant in the Anniston area. Some of them remained in S AL, probably in now Dale/Coffee Co area. The Payne line is in the newest Fam Tree Maker CD that is just out as I have received it but have not had time to look at it real close.

Maggie, I think perhaps you are correct. My mother went to many camp meetings as did her brothers and sisters. My mother played the piano so ofcourse she was needed. She was raised on the road beside Bethlehem school. Her uncle was also Malcolm Taylor married to Idella Barentine. Idella and my mothers mother Mattie were sisters.

Hi Cousin Barbara, Everything you said is so true. We are all family. These childhood memories are indeed very much a part of our family history. I don't post as much to the list as I would like, but I do read all of the messages. I print and save them. I plan to include them in my family history book and my autobiography. "Course, I'll include all of my childhood memories in my books, also. Although I have never met most of the people on this list, I do love them all dearly. They are wonderful people that love to share, care and pray for each other. Barbara, I think your sister would like for you to continue your genealogy. Keep her memory alive through your genealogy. This is why she shared her memories with you. Pass them on to others so that they may know her, also. This will be a part of your healing. Love and prayers, Liz In a message dated 1/4/03 6:37:49 PM Central Standard Time, PennSimHen@aol.com writes: > Hi, all you cousins. > I have listened very quietly as each of you told of things so > important in your lives.
