Does anyone have a James Ivey in their Ivey ancestry, who had a daughter named Edith or Edie or Edy ann ? Edith would have been born abt. 1825-26. I believe James might have come from North or South Carolina and I dont think he stayed in Georgia, maybe went on into Florida or Alabama.

I am looking for any info on the marriage of Berry Rowan and Millicent (Millie) Henderson in Forsythe Co GA, 1843. I am trying to determine if this Berry Rowan is my G-G-Father. He did some traveling with a band of wheelwrights between 1836 and 1848. There are no records of his whereabouts during these years. He was apprenticed to the wheelwrights by his mother, Elizabeth (Lamb) Rowan, at the approximate age of 12 and does not show up again until 1848 in Coffee/Clinch Co GA on the farm of Josiah Sirmans. Any help will be greatly appreciated. TIA Bill Rowan Schertz TX

Dear list. Seeking help on Matthew Allen and Rebecca Jane Jackson listed on the 1850 Bibb County Georgia census as married within that year. Charles Allen age six, born 1844, was also on the census listed as a son. Obviously Matthew's son. Any information on the first marriage for Matthew Allen and this child would be appreciated. Some later census says that Rebecca she was born in SC. She was sixteen on the 1850 census. Any information on her would be appreciated. Have found no information in many years of searching. The family shows up on the Lawrence County, Mississippi census in 1870. Need help from any source. Thanks, Vadow

Caver, Jr., Prattville, Alabama Montgomery Weekly Advertiser, March 9, 1886: (Columbus, GA, March 4) Mr. H.S. SPARKS, aged 50 years, and a prominent cotton dealer of this city, died today. Montgomery Daily Advertiser, March 6, 1886: (Columbus, Georgia, March 6) The remains of Maj. A.M. ALLEN were brought to this city this morning and are now at the residence of his brother, C.H. ALLEN.  The family accompanied the remains here.  Mrs. Mary E. WORRILL died at Talbotton, Georgia, today.  She was the widow of the late Judge Ebound H. WORRILL.                                    Montgomery Daily Advertiser, March 11, 1886: Major A.M. ALLEN, the subject of this notice, was born near Greenville, Meriwether County, Georgia, on the 26th of October 1823, and on Friday, March 5th, 1866, he died… The church will miss him, for since early manhood he has been a zealous member of the Methodist Church… (Lengthy article)

Hello, I hope everyone had a wonderful, love filled Christmas. I have been trying to catch up on the Hall County Georgia AHGP site. I have added new cemetery info with a 1931 layout and list of buried in the Eberhart Cemetery and a complete survey of the Westview Cemetery in Lula, Ga. On the Genealogy Goodies page, 1910 CSA Widows pension list and a list of CSA pension from pages 40 - 46 of the Hall County Pension book. I know that I have missed listing several of the new additions. If you are researching Hall County you had better come take a look and see what I have! http://www.rootsweb.com/~gahall2/ Vicky
