She was in Twiggs Co 1880 with husband Henry A Watts and her 1 month old dau, Minnie Lee. I have some possibilities for her family but no proof.

In 1860 Laurens Co there is a Dnery J Scarborough (b. 1839) single and living with Ira Stanley and wife, working as a farm laborer.(Dnery must be a mistranscription.) Then in 1850 Laurens Co there is a D.J. Scarborough (b.1839) with parents D.N. (Daniel), a teacher, and Sarah Lee Scarborough, along with siblings David J and Nancy E. Does anyone have any of these individuals in your data or your tree?? Wishing that I'm on a hot trail, but need affirmation from someone.

Hi list: I am searching for: David Johns(t)on born circa 1787 in Georgia. By 1838, he was living in Plaquemines Parish, LA and in 1840, he married Hannah Fredericka Hoffman. In 1841, they had their only child, Alexander Henry Johns(t)on. In 1863, Alexander married Magdalena Keisel and in 1864, Hannah married Mathew Weisheimer in New Orleans, LA. Alexander & Magdalena had 3 children. Alexander died in 1869 in New Orleans. I can go on and on .. but I think this is enough for now.

William Ennels Dean married Susannah Albritton on July 4, 1816 in Laurens County, Georgia. William and Caty had three daughters, Susanna Maria and Mary Eliza born January 4, 1807 and Alcy born May 21, 1809, all born in Jones County, North Carolina. William and Susannah Albritton had a set of twin girls and William died about 1818. Susanna Maria and Mary Eliza married brothers, James Brack and William Brack. Susan and James were married March 6, 1825 and Mary and William were married July 28, 1825, both marriages in Laurens County, Georgia. James and Susan are my line. They had six children whose names and birthdates are recorded in a Brack Bible. I have only been able to find one of them, my ancestor, William Allen Brack. I have written a book on this line bringing them up to date to 1995. I have some information on the William Brack line and on some of the sisters and brothers of William and James. I made a trip to Jones County, North Carolina, about 20 years ago trying to find some information on the Deans. I never found any conclusive evidence but I think William's father was Thomas. I know this is several years since you posted the query but would love to hear from you. I possibly can help you and you could probably help me. June

I need help on my g-gm, Elizabeth LEE Black, and her family. This is what I know about Elizabeth LEE's family. Her father Bennett Lee was in Butler County, AL by 1837, maybe before. He is on Butler County's 1850 census and Conecuh County's 1860 census. He died during the Civil War in a Mobile hospital, so he is not on any 1870 census. Here is his family on the 1850 Butler County census: # 889 LEE, Bennett 30 farmer NC Delilah 25 NC Permelia 5 AL Elizabeth 3 AL *** Lovett 1 AL Here they are in 1860 in Conecuh County: #998/961 LEE, Bennett 45 MW Farmer 400 400 NC Delilah 36 AL Eliza 13 Permelia 11 **Lovett 10 George 8 Lucinda 6 Susannah 4 Lucy A. 2 My mother and uncle said there were also children nicknamed Lon (Alonzo) and Fanny. Maybe these were nicknames for two of the above. I have found a Lovet LEE (50-60 years old) with nine sons and one daughter on the 1840 Butler County Census, living two farms from Edward LEE, Sr., who is three farms from my ggg-gm Widow Mary BLACK. I'm thinking this Lovet could be Bennet's father, since Bennet's first son was named Lovet. Other Lees in Butler County in 1837-44 were Irvin, Young, Micajah, Benjamin N., Joel W., Isaac, Ned Nicholas, Sarah, Loverd, Elexander, Jeremiah, Nancy, Sally, Edward Lee, Jr., Nancy, Matilda, and Emily. Does anyone know the relationships among any of the aforementioned Lees? Many of them seem to be from NC, some from Georgia. Also do you know if these Butler County LEEs were related to the Conecuh County LEEs? I have found a George and Alonzo there [Bennet had sons with these names].

I don't see a Bennett Joiner. There are two Jesse Joiners -- Jesse Hamilton b. May 11, 1857 d. Mar 15, 1893 buried in the Clark-Joiner cemetery and Jessie B. Joiner b. Dec 18, 1824 d. July 15, 1896 also buried at the Clark-Joiner cemetery.

Please let me know how your book is coming along if you have not finished it. I must have a copy!

I'm not sure either, Karen. I'm white, so have never read much on researching black families. I just guessed that he might have been born a slave and later given his freedom. I'm sure there are probably some message boards or e-mail lists concerning researching African-American families. And there are numerous forums for Civil War topics. Good luck! Darleen

I don't know much about this topic, but if a colored person fought for the Union during the Civil War, is it safe to deduce that he was a free colored person? Karen

Thanks Darleen! Karen
