McKinney. Charlotte was living with the Joel Magnus Hadaway family in Beat 4 of Lafayette Co in 1920. She was claimed on this census as an aunt to the family. J. M. Hadaway married Nellie Gardner in Lafayette Co MS in the late 1890s. Nellie Gardner's mother was Mary Ellen Miller, a sister to Charlotte Mckinney. I do not believe that James and Charlotte Mckinney had any children to survive to adulthood. That is probably why she was enumerated in the Hadaway household in her senior years. Any help much appreciated. PS. I am hoping that Charlotte's trail will lead me back to James E. Mckinney so I can figure out when and where he died.

Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/AKB.2ACI/1226 Message Board Post: Greatest News since sliced bread!! Thanks to David Crosby we now have forms for submitting your records to the Mississippi Archives.These forms will make it so much easier for contributors to share their records with the MS Archives. They type in the information, click on submit and the .txt file is instantly formatted, created and mailed to the rootsweb directory and available to the rootsweb search engines at http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/newsearch.htm within 48 hours. Most of these forms, with the exception of just a few, will allow the user, or the file managers to copy/paste the data into the forms. For anyone who has had a nightmare of reformatting a word document into ascii text file, you'll love this feature!! This database can be set to send a copy of files submitted to any of the county mailing lists (providing the list admin will put the forms on accept or give a subscriber email address). These forms have been used for almost 2 years in Alabama and Georgia and the results have been that contributors love them. It takes any guesswork out of their hands, the files are formatted with all pertinent information and submitted within the USGenWeb Archives policies. They can get immediate response by choosing to send a copy back to themselves and because of the "ease" of submitting through these forms the amount of sharing has at the very least doubled.. I hope you'll all be as excited as I am in having this new feature for the MSArchives and add a link to these forms on your pages. There are two servers so that if for any reason one is not working the other will work as a back up. These are at http://www.genrecords.org/msfiles and http://www.genrecords.net/msfiles/ I hope you'll all join me in welcoming this new addition for MSArchives and promote this new and efficient way of helping to get genealogical records online. If anyone has any questions about these forms they can send them to Debra Crosby at debra@genrecords.org or David Crosby (creator) at david@genrecords.org Ann Allen Geoghegan USGenWeb Archives - Mississippi Project Coordinator

I had almost no contact with this family since my parents were divorced early on. I saw a photo of a young girl who I was told was my Aunt who died of a ruptured appendix. I have not been able to locate this family in 1910 census. I am particularly interested in finding out who is listed as wife in 1910 since Amelia (who was actually born in 1894) was too young to be Carolyn`s mother IMO. Don`t have Amelia`s maiden name but her obit listed three sisters married to a Crouch, a Carter, and a Simpson {?}. She died in Memphis in 1959. Jesse d. in 1969. My father died in 1971.

Excuse me; Mary; But, Donna is correct, your William Holloway is not our William Washington Hollowell who is buried beside his wife, my Grand aunt Sallie West Crocker in the Paris Memorial cemetery, Paris, Lafayette County Ms. People confuse the Hollowell and Holloway spelling all the time. Our William Washington Hollowell was bn exactly when Donna Hollowell told you, she is the Family Historian of the HOLLOWELL FAMILY of LAFAYETTE CO. MS. Donna is very though in her reseach and checks her sources before passing information on. Try looking in the Lafayette county cemetery indexs for your Wm. HOLLOWAY. Bill Ward, Can you help Mary find Wm. Holloway in the cemteries books? Blessing Eveline Crocker Paris, Ms. Grand neice of Sallie West Crocker and Wm Washington Hollowell.
