Hi folks, The information below was posted on another list I'm on. I thought it was interesting and thought you might think so too. My thanks to the original sender for giving me permission to repost. Peggy - -------------------------------------- Just received my Tallahassee Genealogical Society Bulletin. Here is a quote concerning the 1930 census: "The southern states will be the only part of the 1930 census to be indexed. This census is due to be released in 2002. The indexes were a WPA project to employ people. "The indexing was started in the south but before it could be finished, WWII began and the labor force was needed elsewhere. "According to William Dollarhide in the January-February issue of the American Genealogical Lending Library"s Genealogical bulletin the ten southern states indexed are Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia. The 1940 and 1950 census have no indexes at all."

Read the request on the Autrey-Norris family. At the turn of the century, my grand- father L.C. Bagwell was a logging contractor. He spoke of an old Norris Cemetery which was located in Lincoln Parish. It was apparently located prettty far back in the woods. Does the cemetery still exist and if so, does anyone know who was buried there? I think it may have been near the Fellowship community. Also, Arelia Breed mentioned that she had noticed and read the oldest Union/Now Lincoln Parish land records. Redden Creek was referred to as Feazel Creek. When was the name changed? The Feazel Cemetery was also changed to Frazier Cemetery. Hale Feazel inherited the land from John O. Feazel and his father George Feazel who settled in Union Parish on the Lincoln Parish line about 1811 or 1812. When was the cemetery name changed? My grandfather said Feazel Cemetery was once a large cemetery but most of the old markers had been destroyed by cattle. Does anyone know if the old markers were saved or readable? One such marker was for the noted bank rober, whose last name was Carey. On the back of his marker was his mother's marker. She faced East and he faced West. On my last visit I was unable to find that marker. In 1969 the Michael Feazel who married Louisa Graves had a very tall marker with ivy and oak leaves on it. The base only remains. Does anyone know what happened to the rest of the marker? Thank you, Sherry Gritzbaugh

Do you know if any of Absolam Autrey's ancestor's, descendants served in the Civil War?
