This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: MORRIS, Joiner, Lee Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/Zc.2ADI/1874.1 Message Board Post: I live in Alabama, but I visited Laurens Co. GA in 2003 looking for information about my paternal g-gf Ivy MORRIS, who was on the 1840 Laurens Co. Census--near your Bennett JOINER. I learned that Ivy Morris lived in/near Dexter, a few miles from Dublin, so I went to the Mt. Carmel Baptist Church Cemetery near Dexter. I saw some Joiners buried there. I don't remember their names, but they were probably related to Bennett Joiner. I was curious about them, because I have a Bennett Joiner, brother of my maternal gg-gm, Delilah JOINER Lee. My Joiner family goes back to Nash Co. NC and settled in the areas of Butler and Conecuh Co. Ala. before 1840. Coincidentally, my g-gf Ivy Morris died in Butler Co. Ala. in 1887. I never have determined if the Laurens Co. Bennett JOINER has any connection to the Butler/Conecuh Co. Alabama JOINERs.
