I recently discovered that my grandparents Matthew Earl White POWELL and Mary Elizabeth MINTON were married in Halifax, NC in 1869. He was from Isle of Wight, VA so think they must have eloped. They were married by a Justice of the Peace. I think his name was Simmons. I would like to have the date and any other information that they gave on the marriage application. If someone has access to this information, I would appreacitate it if they would look it up for me. Rosa

Hi Kay, The Salt Lake Library has tons of stuff on Native Americans and land transactions among them. Try http://www.familysearch.org/Browse and get to the Locality section of the library catalog, go to your area in Alabama and add that you're looking for Native Americans--something like "Chilton County, Alabama--Native Americans--land transactions" or whatever there will get you what you want. Good luck! --Carol > I have an ancestor who moved to the Chilton/Autauga Co, AL area ca 1819 > or whenever Indian Land opened there. Are there any records for those > land transactions?

Hi Colleen, A friend of mine and I were just looking up records for an ancestor who died in a Michigan prison. The FHC is a good place to start, in the subject catalog, I believe, of http://www.familysearch.org/Browse and look through to find court records and the fancier word that describes court proceedings (it's late and I'm tired--sorry...). You'll probably recognize the word when you see it. These records do exist. Good luck! --Carol > Does anyone have a clue if there is a place on line to find prisoner in > Minnesota?

I was at an antique show not too long ago and discovered some very nice postcards apparently from one best friend to the other. The first is dated September 11, 1906, with a one cent stamp, signed by "Vine" from Muskegon, Michigan. It is addressed to Mrs. J.E. Erickson in Manistique, Michigan, Box 187. The second is dated October 3, 1906 from "Vina" from Muskegon and to Mrs. Erickson. I also have another postcard (unrelated to the two above) dated February 12, 1909 from an unknown person in Portland, Oregon to Mrs. Annie Renicke in St. Louis, Missouri. All of these postcards are in plastic pouches and are in remarkably good condition. I will be glad to forward these to anyone who is interested in these surnames for the cost of the cards. (The most expensive one was $3). The handwriting on these postcards is beautiful, almost calligraphy-like. Please contact me at [email protected] if you are interested.
