I sure wish someone would know something about my Angus McAulay from Suwannee County I sure have a lot of copies of original documents from there, from the 1850s into the 1880s Kay

Is Littleberry Parker related to the Parkers who were in Sumter Co. GA. My Great grandmother was Amanda Parker Bass. She was from Sumter/Irwin/Lee Co. Ga. This might tie in with the Carter family......Winnette

G.June, The Lawton Bryan Cemetery is on the edge of private pasture land, in Wellborn. I don't know of a list, but the ladies at Suwannee Valley Genealogical Society in Live Oak, might know more about whom may be buried there. Do you have an ancestor buried there? If I lived there, I would surely attempt to try and clean it up, but I'm way over here in South Mobile County, AL. The county prisoners cleaned it up a scant bit, but I don't think they ever finished. Let me know, and we will discuss more. Charlene

Is there more information on this John Jackson? Thanks, Winnette iii. MARTHA JANE WALKER, b. December 17, 1869, Lafayette County, Florida; d. December 17, 1918, Lafayette County, Florida; m. JOHN FRANK JACKSON, March 12, 1890, Lafayette County, Florida.

Bette: Maybe we should get them all started on our Lanier relations???? If you all do decided to have a Suwannee reunion, let me know when and where. I need a good excuse to make a trip to Suwannee to do research.

Thanks, Leslie for the info on the Archives. I have been intending to follow up anyway. Aren't those little extra "gifts" of info that pop up somewhere else wonderful? Doris

I don't have that right here in front of me, but I do know Matthew Albritton (Columbia County) was brother to my ancestor in Taylor County. I'm really peeved that I can't remember my own ancestor's name! My uncle has the lineage back to the 1600's, but I do recall a John Albritton. I want to put the name Averilla Atherton with it, but I'm not sure that's correct. Which part of the country are you from?

Should have read all my mail first. Is your Jasper Albritton descended from William Albritton and Mariah Blackshear? Doris

No need to apologize to me! Any and all help is welcome, anytime! And, if I have something that helps you, even better!! Same Littleberry Parker. He was in Jefferson County for a period of about twenty years, I believe. While there he held some sort of political office (I don't have my materials here, but I'll e-mail you as soon as I get to them). Joel Walker is a relative, as well, but I'm not sure how. I think he was the son of Isham WAlker, RS, and named his son Littleberry after his brother. Also, in President Jimmy Carter's family tree is a Littleberry Walker Carter. I don't know how that ties in yet, but I find it interesting:>) I have not been able to get past Isham Walker, RS, but I DID find Elizabeth Littleberry in Henrico Co, VA in 1623, I believe. She married first John Worsham, then Francis Eppes. She and Francis had a son named Littleberry. One of his brothers married Anne Isham, daughter of Captain Henry Isham. This leads me to believe they are somehow connected. Either that or it's one heck of a coincidence both names should turn up in the same family. Anyway, if you want to do some further research, they lived at Bermuda Hundred and Shirley Plantation (which is where Littleberry Walker's wife is from). Interesting coindence. That's the earliest record I could find of any Littleberrys. There are more listed, but I feel this is the closest probable link. If you haven't already been there, go to www.my-ged.com and access the index. You'll find lots of stuff on Elizabeth Littleberry and a couple of other Littleberrys. You can also try gencircles.com. I didn't have a whole lot of luck on familysearch.com, but something might've been added.

Hi Marsha, I apologize for busting in on your thread but I am amazed at the lineage you are discussing. I am descended from the Littleberry Walker of Jefferson County, son of Joel Walker also of Colleton Co. SC. The administrator of Joel's estate in Jefferson Co. was Littleberry Parker of Jefferson Co. also (I believe) of Colleton Co. I realize they are of different families and that both families liked the name Littleberry. It's too bad that most of the Colleton records were destroyed by fire. I am almost certain the families are related in Colleton but just how I have not been able to determine.

Hello - Just to throw some more information into the pile about these Parkers now that the Albritton name has come up. Rhoda Strickland b 27 Nov 1802 d 11 May 1868 Columbia Co., FL was married first to John Parker, s/o William Hall Parker, Sr. and brother to Littleberry Parker. When John died she married Thomas Albritton about 1820 - they had Samantha, Susannah, Rhoda, Ann, Andrew John, Miriam and Nancy. I just started researching them last week so information still sketchy. Various web pages show a child Nancy Parker and some say she is Nancy Albritton, supposedly married Arthur Thomas Albritton b 10 May 1810 Bryan Co., GA d 15 Aug 1882 Polk Co., FL. Leslie
