Here is a posting on Ancestry which seems to provide more evidence that perhaps Lydia and Elizabeth were two different people, both married to Zachariah Screws. Name: Gloria Hayes Email: dollyscrying@yahoo.com Note: Prior to her marriage to James Bush Howard,Elizabeth was married to a Mr.Screws,and had two children;? and Sarah,or Sallie.Sallie moved t Fla. and married a Mr.Pendarvis. The children of James Bush Howard and Elizabeth Kersey were Enal(female),married a Mr. McKinney in Fla.,and Ethel,b.7-?-1893 in Adrian, Ga.Ethel married first Matthew McKinney in Pulaski County, Ga.,children:James,Horace, Walter and Mildred McKinney.Matthew McKinney died in Cordele,Ga.,hospital in 1919,and Ethel re-married ;William Henry Hunley-children of this marriage were Alma LaVerne Hunley,b.7/18/1920 and Lola Louise Hunley,b.7/8/1923. Ethel and Hunley divorced and she married Mr.Mullis- children;Herman and Erma.Herman died in a car crash in Pulaski county in the 1950's. After Mr. Mullis' death, Ethel married a Mr. Yon-divorced;no children, and Robert Slade,of Pulaski County. She was married to Mr.Slade at the time of her death in 1953,in the Hawkinsville,Pulaski County,Ga.hospital, of a cerebral hemorrhage.

Here's what I got from a transcription of Emanuel County Marriage Book B: Emanuel Co Marriage Records 1856-1879: Zachariah Screws, to Elis Kersey 06/25/1867 by E. Rhyner, MG. Now, I assume this "Elis" is Elizabeth Kersey. Perhaps the marriage date was transcribed incorrectly. In any case, their first child was born about 1873. I'll change the marriage date to about 1872.

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: flanders Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/Cc.2ADI/646 Message Board Post: I'm tring to find any information on Neal louis flanders (1879),married Janie Scarlbrough. His father was (big) Jim Flanders. His mother was creek indian, and died shortly after he was born. His father remarried another creek woman and had several more children. Can anyone help me out I'm at a stand still.

Here are the some census records on these people that might give food for thought. I believe Zachariah Screws married both Elizabeth Kersey and Lydia/Liddie. Elizabeth states she's had 4 children with 4 living, yet only two can ever be found with her. George Screws is living in the household of Elizabeth's uncle at the age of 12. I believe she and Zachariah separated soon after George's birth. I can't find the illusive Sarah in any census, nor can I find Elizabeth in 1870 or 1880. She apparently didn't marry James Howard until 1890. Was she married to someone else during this period who was perhaps Sarah's father?

I have Zachariah married To Elizabeth Barwick Kersey. After the discussion, I guess that is incorrect. >> No ... that does look correct. Where did the "Barwick" come from in Elizabeth's name? Was she a Barwick or a Kersey? Emanuel County Marriage Book B shows Zachariah SCREWS marrying and Elis KERSEY, but all Census records and her tombstone identifiy Zack's wife as Lydia or Liddie. I wonder if that should have been translated as "Miss" Kersey, instead of "Elis", which I (and others) thought was short for Elizabeth? In any case, until I can find further proof, I'm eliminating "Elizabeth" as part of her name. Sure would like to know who her parents are! Here are all my notes on Zachariah and Lydia: He was listed as "Zaccheus" on the 1850 Emanuel County Census, but as "Zachariah" on the 1860 Emanuel County and 1870 Jefferson County Censuses. Emanuel Co Marriage Records 1817-1903: Zachariah Screws, to Elis Kersey 06/25/1867 by E. Rhyner, MG. Note: If Elizabeth was not born until 1855/1860 or so, the 1867 year of marriage cannot be correct. In addition, Zachariah was still single and living with his parents as of 1870. Lydia's tombstone gives her date of birth as Aug 12,1860, but Census records show she was born about 1855. According to the 1900 Census, she was born Feb 1854. What was Lydia's maiden name? Some researchers claim that the wife of Zack SCREWS was Elizabeth KERSEY, daughter of John B. KERSEY and Sarah Ann BURRIS, who later married James Bush HOWARD.
