Sheila; Census records, Mississippi, Lauderdale Co.

Tenn. N. P. Cornega age 5 female b. Ala. Isaac J. age 3 b. Ala Sara age 1 b. Ala. If Nance Penelope was bprn in 1855, then L. W. and Anna were married prior to that date. This indicates that Sarah died in Alabama, in the early 1950s. got to go Harry

Lewis William and Sarah Keaton were married 4/13/1830 on the 1850 Choctaw County Alabama Census. See below.> > > CORNEGA?, L.W., 48, M, Planter, NC, # 199 > Sarah, 42, F, NC > Wm.

L.W. was in Lauderdale Co., MS in 1860 with his second wife. So, Lewis William married Anna Harte after 1850 and before 1860. I don't know if Sarah died before or after the move to Lauderdale County, MS. Lewis William and Anna Harte are buried at Cokers Chapel United Methodist Church, Vimville, MS. I have not been able to locate the graves, but they are on the cemetery list. Sarah's brother E. Keaton who lived next door to the Kornegay's in Choctaw county, is not listed there on the 1860 census. So, as soon as I get the chance to go to the library, I will check the 1860 census here and see if he moved to Meridian also. If so, Sarah may have died in Meridian instead of in Alabama. Sheila

Patty, note what Helen is telling us in the subject line. She's probably right and this may be as close as we ever get to documentation. However, when this was sent to the list about a year ago someone informed us then that this is not an official marriage record or any thing like that. To reiterate: This is an undocumented contemporary marraige date submitted by someone. [ KJ insert: which was probably discerned/derived from birth's of children]. I still think there is some record somewhere that would tie her into her parents and to her husband George. There were so many precincts, county and territory name changes and all of the areas will have to be searched.

Benny, I think there might be many folks that would like to see the pictures: Why not put them on the Kornegay site as an attachment.

Hi i'm Barbara Justice. I would love copies of those pics.

You must be thinking about John George Kornegay. We don't know what his wife's name was or his other three children. Barbara

Hello Everyone - This is Benny Huff again. I have about a dozen pictures that were found in an old trunk of Annie Elizabeth Kornegay Cook. She was the daughter of David Smith Kornegay and Elizabeth McGary Kornegay. I have scanned the pictures. I have them in Jpeg format so they are as small as possible, thanks to a suggestion by Ed Purcell. I have sent copies to Ed Purcell and he has helped me identify some of the people. I suspect the pictures are a mixture of Kornegays and McGarys. If there are any descendents of David Smith Kornegay out there who would like an electronic copy (or anyone else for that matter ) please E-mail me. I would love to get these distributed so that as many as possible may be identified. Thanks. Benny

Ruth, Couldn't we give more weight to this because of George Fisher Kornegay? I know on our Mozingo line from Virginia (1600s) to present Pierce/Peirce was given for naming of males and females....One of the more famous was J. Pierce (Spot) Mozingo who was in the South Carolina State Senate. A very articulate senator from the stories I have heard. Best regards, Gayle L. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ruth R.

Pat, I knew I had seen that name before. Thank you for the correction.... I wonder if there are any records of when these parties were in England? Prior to coming to America? We don't even know George's first wife's name, correct?

You know how people ASSUME things in genealogy. since their dau was named Mary Fisher DeBruhl I can see where some would ASSUME that the mother's maiden name was Fisher.

Hi! Christine: Thank you for your input. I had forgotton about the George Fisher KORNEGAYS. It does seem to be a name handed down in several families and I imagine that that is where the suggestion comes from. I hope that you won't hesitate to enter into a KORNEGAY discussion when ever you feel like it. We may not always agree but this is the way we learn and get new prespective on things. I have been working on other lines recently so haven't persued the GRIMES or DICKSON lines in my persuit of finding the maiden name of Wyatt Y. KORNEGAY's wife. Pat Hoffman

There has been so much lately on whether or not George Kornegay, Sr's. wife's name was really Mary Fisher, I am sending this again and maybe some of you can now prove this or take it as proof. As for myself, I'm taking it as proof and probably all we will ever find out. I realize this is a transcription, but the original record must be there somewhere waiting to be rechecked.

Four years before parents married??? Can't be correct. This is not my line and this family's information was part of what was downloaded to me from others and the source given is FTW, Family Tree Electronic File and Master980818.FTW. And you know how many mistakes we have had to try to correct from these sources. I should not have been so eager to help Maggie, what I sent probably just confused her, and everyone else, more than help. But maybe she can get it all worked out with the more accurate help that was sent to her from Sheila and the other descendants of this line. I'm going to send this back to the list in hopes someone can get me straight on the date I have for his marriage to Sarah....And, or, the correct date for their first child. How about it, Sheila, or anyone else, can you help us? Kathlynn
