    1. Re: [KORNEGAY-L]Mary Magdelena Kornegay
    2. Hi, I have Mary Magdelena Kornegay's death certificate. It states that she was born August 07, 1878 in Dothan, AL and that her parents were J.W. Carnega (another spelling of Kornegay) and that her mother was Eveline Branton (born October 19, 1851 and died September 11, 1918). It shows that both her parents were born in Houston County, AL. Her husband was John Henry Moore. (Trying to find him is another headache of a different kind.) Mary's date of death was March 16, 1923. Her nickname was Maggie. She died while living in Stockton, Lanier County, GA. That county had only been formed for a short time at the time of her death. John Henry Moore and Mary Magdelena Kornegay had the following children: Aline Moore born February 16, 1903 Thelma, Clinch County, GA Carrie Gladys Marie Moore born February 12, 1905 AL or Thelma, Clinch Co., GA Johnny Henry Moore born August 09, 1907 Thelma, Clinch County, GA Lawrence Dewey Moore October 25, 1910 born AL Florence Moore born about 1920, adopted out due to her mothers death when Florence was two or three years old. No other information is known about her. We would love to find her. Myrtle Francis Moore born August 16, 1922 in Stockton, Lanier County, GA married Richard Earl Green divorced Richard Earl Green married James David Carpenter died August 16, 1990 Jacksonville, Duval County, FL I have not been able to find Maggie and John Moore on any census in 1910 or 1920. She is listed with her parents on the 1900 census living in Geneva County, AL and shown as age 21, born Aug 1878. Her parents are shown on the 1900 census as John W. Carnegia and Eveline. I do not know where or when John Henry and Maggie married. I assume between 1900 and 1903. Does any one have anything they can add to this?? Loretta Souder johnsou@aol.com
