I am searching for my g-grandmother's family. She was born about 1865-75. Her father was said to be John SERGENT OR VARIANT SPELLINGS OF THAT NAME. Her mother died when he was young. She lived with her grandmother much of the time. Her grandmother's last name was STEEL OR VARIANT SPELLINGS OF THIS NAME. My g-grandmother's name was Lottie Catherine Sergent/Steel (or variant spellings). She married Elisha Dean in Whitesburg, KY. They then moved to Scott County, VA. I have been told by family members that she never saw her family again once she moved to VA. She also named my mother "Serilday Jane". She always told my mother that she was named after her grandmother. By this statement, we don't know if she meant that my mother was named after Lottie's mother or Lottie's grandmother. This has been a really hard brick wall. Brenda
