The entry re: James E. Hatcher, wife Anne E., came from an online database: The Alabama Supreme Court on Slaves by Dwayne Cox http://www.lib.auburn.edu/archive/aghy/slaves.htm Sorry I forgot to include this link before. It doesn't mention a county, but it sounds as if that's all straightened out...... Wondered if anyone has access to the Lexus/Nexus law database? I have signed up for a free mini-version, which provides complete transcripts of all US Supreme Court Cases, but for individual states only provides case transcriptions for the last 10 years. Is there a lawyer on the list who can tell me if there is any online access to State Supreme Court Case transcriptions? There are cases in Louisiana and Alabama in the 1800's involving my Cato family that I would like to research. Thanks! Cynthia
