    3. My paternal grandmother was Cindy Cloud and I have been unable to locate any information about her. She was married to Major Allen Sloan on October 14, 1888 in Henry County, Alabama, at the home of Major's brother Samuel. The name on the marriage certificate is spelled Cuida, but my father had always told me it was spelled Cindy. In some later land transactions the name is spelled Sinda. By 1900 Cindy and Major were living near Graceville, Jackson Co. Florida and the 1900 census lists the name as Celia. I think she may have been from the Decatur or Early County Georgia Cloud families. None of the Clouds on the 1880 Jackson County Fl census fit the profile for Cindy. I think Cindy died in between late 1900 and summer of 1905. Major Sloan remarried in Oct. 1905. Does anyone know where she is buried? Another connection is with Major Sloan's older brother John A. Sloan who married Sarah Cloud in Decatur County GA in 1881. John and Major Sloan were both born in Decatur County GA. I'm almost positive that Sarah Cloud was the daughter of James and Matilda Cloud from Jackson County FL.
