Posted on: McCarty & McCarthy Queries Board URL: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/FamilyAssoc/McCarty?read=175 Surname: Boyd, Curtis, Denson, Grayson, Henderson, James, McAllister, McCarty, Minor, Renfroe, Ratliff, Wells ------------------------- I am a descendant of Jacob McCarty of Robertson/Stewart counties, TN, through his daughter Sarah & her husband, James Tagert. James Tagert moved from Stewart county, TN to Washington county,AL in 1816/1817 where he resided near his borther-in-law Joseph McCarty. He purchased land in Spring Hill, AL in 1827 & died intestate in late 1827, leaving a lengthy probate in Marengo county court records. The family was also closely allied with the numerous Curtis families of Marengo & Sumter counties, who were also from Stewart county, TN. In fact, many, if not most of the residents of Spring Hill, AL had ties to Montgomery,Stewart & Robertson counties in TN. I am very much interested in collaborating with anyone researching these families & communities. Many of the descendants of these families eventually moved on to Texas. Please contact me to discuss these & other related families.
