Hello Rhonda, I have Burns ancestors from MS too. The earliest is John b. abt. 1785 in SC and Rutha Burns. They were in Jefferson Co. MS by 1811. I have quite a bit of information for this family. I do not find a Wade Burns, but if you can give me some other names and dates, perhaps we can find a connection. Sally Kelly Etebari

Hugh Slater was b. in Copiah Co., MS in 1828. He was the oldest son of John Slater, b. 1797 in Jefferson Co., MS and Clarissa Fletcher, b. @1804 in (prob.) Jefferson Co., MS. The family is enumerated on the Warren Co., MS Census in 1830, 1840 and 1850. There were several other siblings to Hugh. Does anyone have any information on this family?

His first two wives names are unknown at this time. Jeremiah PARKER, born: bet. 1790 - 1800, appears in the Copiah Co., MS Census in 1830 with several children and with his unnamed wife, (appearing to be wife # 2,) shown as being born between 1800 - 1810 along with 2 males who appear to be children from another marriage who were born between 1820 - 1825 and a male child and a female child under age 5 yrs who were born between 1825 - 1830, also appearing to be children of a 1st marriage. Jeremiah PARKER, born: 1795 in Maryland, appears in the Smith Co., MS Census in 1850 with my 2nd great grandmother, who now appears to be his 3rd wife, Sarah (Sally) JENNINGS, parents: Bailey JENNINGS and Kitty EARLE, and showing that Sarah (Sally) JENNINGS was born in 1822 in Alabama, (however, my information that was obtained from several different descendants shows her birthdate and location as 1821/1822 in Covington Co., MS. I do not have any information showing her parents, Kitty EARLE and Bailey JENNINGS, having lived in Alabama at all just marrying in Dec 1811 in Christian Co., Kentucky then moving to Caldwell County, Kentucky as did Bailey's parents, Rachel JORDAN and John JENNINGS, Sr., and then into Mississippi to Covington Co., MS and then into Simpson Co., MS; however, Kitty EARLE's father, Samuel EARLE, IV, (Sgt./Rev.

Of course, it is possible that this is an entirely different Jeremiah PARKER but would give a probable dateline for the birth of the apparent 2nd wife if this is the correct Jeremiah PARKER and, also, offer up possible information for earlier born children from a 1st marriage before two additional marriages with the earliest born child/children from this Census showing to have been born in 1820 as the earliest possible date when my Jeremiah PARKER would have been 25 years old.

Lynda - Wills and probate stuff is in Hazelhurst Court House Chancellery Annex (ask in main Courthouse forthe court probate records). After you go in the main "Annex" entrance, therecords room is on the right. Don't miss the un-catalogued old personal papers in the "lettered" boxes are all the way tothe left, back, against the wall. In my case for "Hennington" there are 3 "H" boxes; interesting stuff. We were just there this fall. - Bryan Hennington Lynda Lindsey wrote: > wills and probates stuff for copiah countY? > > any one have any idea. > > Thanks > Lynda LIndsey > slowly transcribing the 1830/40 copiah county ms census > > My Family Tree must have been used for firewood!! > > > ==== MSCOPIAH Mailing List ==== > > > > ============================== > Create a FREE family website at MyFamily.com! > http://www.myfamily.com/banner.asp?ID=RWLIST2 > > >

If you have never used the county archives, you are really missing a lot. Unfortuantely, many counties don't have the dedicated submitters that is needed. Where I live in Winn Parish, Louisiana, we have a great online archives everyone should take a look at. One submitter has put up over 5000 obits from the old newspapers. Almost all the cemeteries have been put online, etc. To access any of these archives go to www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/ and follow the directions.
