    2. Hello Everyone, Well....After two years of trying to go back and back and back on my ancestors, I have now become obsessed with filling in collateral lines, whenever, where ever, for families in Dade and Lawrence Co.--no easy task from Virginia. Fortunately, several of you out there have helped immensely (Ross, Vicki, Jeanne), but I still have all these Williams and Marsh folks' spouses and families to figure out. And then a Hudspeth/Poindexter match pops up as ancestor of my Hill/Whaley/Gays/Fortners offspring etc. Here is my question....do any of you know where in the HUDSPETH family (which are all over my Dade AND Lawrence Co lines already) this Etta falls. According to Poindexter researchers, Etta Hudspeth was the wife of Robert Lee POINDEXTER, son of Joseph/Josiah and America (PARNELL) Poindexter (the latter couple lived in the southern part of Dade Co in the neighborhood of my Marsh/Sexton/Byrd/Choate lines). I don't have any dates, but since their son was born in 1894, I am assuming Etta and Robert Lee were born ca 1860s, 1870s. Their son, Aulcey Milford Poindexter married Celia Mabel HILL, d/o "Lon" Hill and Oren Ella (FORTNER) Hill. Lon was brother to my grandmother Marguerite Louisa Hill, d/o Hugh Lawson White Hill and Sarah ET "Tennie" (GAY) Hill. His wife is a Fortner Cousin (4th)...Then, of course, so are all the Poindexters my cousins (7th or so :-)). Like a none SW Misourian who married one said..."you guys are ALL related to each other!"..this at get togethers in California. Thanks in advance, Janet (Baugh) Hunter
