I guess 15 years is a long time and you may not be reading this post, but I was looking for my maternal grandmother who was Emma Kezia Pickett and found your enquiry. On the off chance they are one and the same, do you know whether your Kezia Emma was married? Mine was born in 1870 and married Albert Henry Perkins on 17 May 1907. I don't know her family history, which is why I was searching. Thanks David

I have a friend with the middle name KEZIA. She is not Jewish although it is a Hebrew name. The meaning is: Kezia Hebrew From the Cassia tree, a variety of cinnamon. -----Original Message----- From: genbrit-bounces@rootsweb.com [mailto:genbrit-bounces@rootsweb.com] On Behalf Of David Garwes via Sent: Saturday, 31 October, 2015 10:37 AM To: genbrit@rootsweb.com Subject: Re: Keziah as a first name On Saturday, April 8, 2000 at 8:00:00 AM UTC+1, Monica Drake wrote: > I just found my husband's greatgrandmother had a sister named Keziah > Emma Pickett.
