I don't have a copy of the book. Information was sent to me out of it. When they were working on the Historic Clarke Co. Book in 1996, Mrs. Dansby had a copy. she called it " Records of Clarke County Miss. , WPA Source Marerials " published by Jean Strickland and Patricia Edwards. Jean Strickland lived around MossPoint, MS. when she died. I believe that she had most of the Mississippi counties done thru. probably in one book. I had a cousin that sent me information about the tax list of 1866. I will try to get more info. Billy

Just a note to let you guys know that the Dallas Public Library has the tax lists on microfilm. Also the censuses, including a few local censuses, and best of all the Civil War Pension applications. Very few books though and no newspapers on microfilm. In fact is someone can tell me where to buy Clarke, Greene, Wayne and Jones Co newspapers on microfilm I would appreciate it very much. Need them desperately!!! Thanks to all. Poldi Billy & Nell Beckman wrote: > There was a tax list published in 1866. In a book by Jean Strickland. > The book has a lot of information about Clarke Co.

Thanks Billy. I live in TX, so checking the local libraries is somewhat out of the question. I will see what I can find by written correspondence. Thanks, Leslie Hill

Billy, do you know the name of the book? Erline

I have not been very successful as my family is so large and spread out. ANY information is greatly appreciated.

Posted on: Clarke Co. Ms Queries Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Ms/Clarke/272 Surname: Husband, Waters, Griffin, Robinson, Rouse ------------------------- I also have a very large family with several children branching out from each surname. My family reaches all shores of the U.S. I believe it all begins in (as far as i have tracked) Clarke County with an african american named Dennis husband and his wife Susan. Any information would be greatly appreciated! I have only found census listings.

There was a tax list published in 1866. In a book by Jean Strickland. The book has a lot of information about Clarke Co. You will have to check at the libraries to read it. As far as I know it is out of print now. Mrs. Strickland died about two years ago. Billy

Hello: Does anyone know if there were tax lists published for property owners during any years following the Civil War, and if so, what years, and perhaps where they could be found? Thanks for any clues-- Leslie Hill

Billy, I have been to the site and I think it is fabulous. Thanks a million for all your time and effort. My hat's off to you. Honey

Billy, You may be right about 7th vs.8th as I was pulling that from memory. Anyway I appreciate your prompt response. As far as John H. is concerned, his headstone indeed indicates he was a confederate soldier. However, I have no other source of verification for this. The headstone is in good shape and readable. Please add him to your list.

John, there is a John G. Flemings buried at Andrews Chapel Cem. My information is correct. I did not have any information or go to Stateline Meth. Cem. I have rechecked the Stateline Cem. on the net and there is a Marker showing John H. Fleming -- Co. D 7th Miss. Inf. Not the 8th -- I do make errors so correct me and let me know about more of our brave Confederates. If anyone wants to add a Soldier on , please send the information. Billy
