Please welcome to the Kilgore list Tammy Tinney Caine who resides in Visalia, CA and is searching the Kilgore's of Tallapoosa Co., Al. With all of you searching in that county, you should be able to tie something together. Here is what Tammy has on her line that she is searching... I have the will of Joseph Davis Sr. that died 1854 Tallapoosa Co., Al. possible grandfather to Massilva Kilgore. I'm sure this is her married name as she made her mark above her name to sign the probate papers so she had to be over 18. If this is she, she would have been age 21 at the time of Joseph Davis' death. It spelled Massilva Kilgore on the papers. She and my gr grandfather, Isaac Tinney, (among others listed) were the heirs to the Davis estate in Tallapoosa Co..However, she's the only one I cannot figure out who she is. The 1860 Tallapoosa Co., Al census is my first clue as to who she might be. Also listed in the will is Mary Kilgore, wife of Larkin Kilgore m. Dec. 11, 1850 Tallapoosa Co., Al...Larkin may be a middle name..I'm not sure..Mary Tinney is my gr grandfather's sister and grandaughter of the above Joseph Davis, Sr. She also made her mark along with the others. I have not found Larkin Kilgore anywhere. I feel this might be Massilva below: This is all I have to! go on...I took this info from the Kilgore surname page. Someone very sweetly posted all the Kilgore census...this one below came the closest... 1860 Tallapoosa Co. Al. Census shows this info: Could she be my Massilva Kilgore? Pg. 290; household #657; Channahatchy James Kilgore - age 32? (hard to read) - day laborer - GA MARSELSY? - 27 - GA (hard to read) Rebecca - 11 - ALABAMA Joseph - 9 - AL Harriet - 5 - AL Looking forward to hearing from anyone that might have a connection to this family Thanks, Tammy Tinney Caine

Welcome Tammy, I am looking for Mahalia Kilgore and her sons, James and Levi b. 1866 and 1873 respectively. I don't know who their father was, if he died or was divorced.
