Dear All This seems a very quite list! I hope somebody reads my message. I am researching my GG Uncle Amos KENDALL whom immigrated to the southern states of the US in 1854. Where he joined the Methodist Episcopal Church South and worked in the conference’s of Memphis & Tennessee and then from 1870 the North Mississippi circuit. Amos’s English wife died in 1868 and he remarried in 1869 an American widow Julia Hancock nee Roselle, he had no children with either wife. Amos served four times in Aberdeen covering a period of 14 years and it was here that he chooses to retire to and died in 1909 he is buried in Old Fellows cemetery some SKS many years ago photographed the headstones for me. It was through Julia’s thoughtfulness that on her death in 1912; the newspaper cuttings on Amos’s career she had collected; be returned to ancestral home, that is how I know so much about him. He was one of ten brothers six of whom entered the Methodist Ministry. I am in the process of putting all this together in a family history book. I am looking for some historical/modern pictures of Aberdeen MS, possibly the Methodist Episcopal Church and vicarage if they are still standing or other buildings of this time frame. BUT they need to be free of copyright for publishing purposes. Does anyone have access to the Evans Memorial Library? And could look up in the index of the Frank Summerfield McKnight Photographic Collection to see if Amos or Julia are listed amongst the photograph’s I would love to be able to obtain photographs of them both.

Maria, Dr. W.A.Evans writing in 1937 (work now collected in MOTHER MONROE, Hamilton, Mississippi: Mother Monroe Publishing Company, 1979, page 96) lists AMOS KENDALL twice. First, in a short discussion of the first Methodist Church in Monroe County, Mississippi, at Wise's Gap east of Quincy, AMOS KENDALL is listed as one the presiding elders of that church. Second, Dr. Evans states that the "Aberdeen church was first located on South Chestnut Street. From there, it was removed to its present location. The present is the third church building located there." And in a list of ministers who served there is the name AMOS KENDALL. I am not a member of the Monroe County Historical Society but I'm sure someone there has more about the Reverend Mr. Kendall and will come to your aid. Best wishes in completing your work about this early contributor to the development of Monroe County.

Maria, Some years ago I answered a request from someone in England and found the grave of Rev. Amos Kendall here in Aberdeen. I don't recall if that was you or not. I'm secretary of the Methodist Church here in Aberdeen and will be happy to send you what information I can find in the church records. Please email me at the church with more details of the information you are seeking.
