Hello...I noticed your posting to the Madison Co list and would like to ask if you know anything about a Maggie E. Boatwright who is buried on the grave of James Redden Morris and Annie E. Sharp Morris in the Colbert City Cemetery. I cannot figure out why she is buried with them. The Morrises are my relatives. Thanks, Todd Dorsey Maysville GA -----Original Message----- From: Norman H.

This comes from another digest I receive. CENSUS TAKER It was the first day of census, and all through the land; The pollster was ready ... a black book in hand. He mounted his horse for a long dusty ride; His book and some quills were tucked close by his side. A long winding ride down a road barely there; Toward the smell of fresh bread wafting, up through the air. The woman was tired, with lines on her face; And wisps of brown hair she tucked back into place. She gave him some water ... as they sat at the table; And she answered his questions ... the best she was able. He asked of her children.. Yes, she had quite a few; The oldest was twenty, the youngest not two. She held up a toddler with cheeks round and red; his sister, she whispered, was napping in bed. She noted each person who lived there with pride; And she felt the faint stirrings of the wee one inside. He noted the sex, the color, the age... The marks from the quill soon filled up the page. At the number of children, she nodded her head; And saw her lips quiver for the three that were dead. The places of birth she "never forgot"; Was it Kansas? or Utah? or Oregon ... or not? They came from Scotland, of that she was clear; But she wasn't quite sure just how long they'd been here. They spoke of employment, of schooling and such; They could read some .and write some .. though really not much. When the questions were answered, his job there was done; So he mounted his horse and he rode toward the sun. We can almost imagine his voice loud and clear; "May God bless you all for another ten years." Now picture a time warp ... its' now you and me; As we search for the people on our family tree. We squint at the census and scroll down so slow; As we search for that entry from long, long ago. Could they only imagine on that long ago day; That the entries they made would effect us this way? If they knew, would they wonder at the yearning we feel; And the searching that makes them so increasingly real. We can hear if we listen the words they impart; Through their blood in our veins and their voice in our heart. Author Unknown Sheila from Alaska casperfamily@mosquitonet.com

Hi list It has been quite sometime since I wrote to the list. As "listowner" it has been a busy time. With the help of RootsWeb staff, many additions are now available for your use. GenConnect Boards for the county are listed below. The state index is the first listed. Following that are the various boards for SPECIFIC types of information. I am required to delete improper posts as soon as I become aware of them. Please help me to help you by making sure that your posts are to the proper board. With your help, I may even get time to do some of my own research. (Maintaining the lists, web pages and boards takes a great deal of time, as I have to scan every message and post.) It is a pleasure, not a chore to help in this manner.

I am researching a Ware/Tolbert line (for possible connection) that was in NC and descendants to MS.

S-K Publications http://www.skpub.com/genie/censuscd/index.html will scan the Census and put the images on a CD-Rom. Please read their description as they can explain it better than I can. I have talked with John Schunk and there are special rates to groups that want to go in together to purchase the CD and get the census put on the web. I am proposing that we pool our resources, get the Madison Co, GA 1870-1920 Census online and each person who participates will get a CD-Rom of that census. 1870 Madison County, GA - about 130 pages 1880 Madison County, GA - about 160 pages 1900 Madison County, GA - about 270 pages Don't know how many pages there are in 1910 and 1920.

Hello, Anybody researching the above names in Madison County? Regards, Rick Elliott San Jose, CA

I'm trying to find any information on Preston Marion Morrison (b: 1 Jun 1850 - d: 29 Jun 1912) and his wife Emma Caroline Alewine (b: 19 Dec 1854 - d: 31 Oct 1936).

(b: 30 Sep 1873). He married Alice Clark in Hart Co. Minnie Oceley (b: 3 Dec 1875) Essie Savannah (b: 23 Jul 1880) Robert (Bob) Garrison (b: 16 Jul 1883). He married Ila Ophelia Owens - daughter of Sanford Garrson Owens and Cornelia Vargus Jenkins. William Lester Morrison (b: 11 Jul 1887). He married Willie Ree Morgan. Any information would be greatly appreciated.
