    1. [GAPOLK] John and Sallie Price of Cedartown, GA, c. 1860

    3. Dear List Members, I write once again concerning my Niblet ancestors of Polk County, GA (and later Cherokee Co. AL). I've just received a long-awaited Civil War pension file from the National Archives that includes some records of great genealogical value concerning my gggrandfather Wm. Niblet and his wife Sallie, married 1872. Copies of sworn affadavits in the pension file indicate that Sallie had been married to one John PRICE before the Civil War but was then widowed when this John Price, Private, 25th Ala. Regiment, CSA, died in Knoxville, TN, in November of 1862. This info opens many new avenues of research for me, so may I begin by asking if anyone on the list knows of a marriage in Polk (could also be Haralson or Floyd) County between a John Price and a Sallie, probably just prior to the start of the war? In 1870 Sally was living in Cedartown, GA, with her first daughter, Mary. She was married two years later, as I mentioned, to my gggrandfather Wm. Niblet. If I can find the marriage record of John Price and Sallie, I'll be able to uncover Sallie's maiden name. Many thanks. --Mark
