    3. Well I guess this makes us cousins. Lott Thomas is my 1st cousin three times removed. We have some cousins who have done some excellent research I will put you in contact with. Also you and any other Green/Greene descended from Samuel Charles & Catherine "Lettie" Wallace who came to MS from GA are invited to the Green/Greene Family Reunion planned for next September at Camp Dixon, Neshoba Co.

It seems to be all spam. I am researching in Neshoba and Newton Counties for my Roberts and Beards. I have for a long time been at the brick wall with the Roberts. My Great Grandfather Benjamin Roberts born about 1800 ( I think) and died abt. 1859. I have found the court record where they settled his estate but that is all I can find. I can't beleive that he did not have parents or sisters or brothers. I have found that he was one of the earliest in Neshoba County. You would think that someone would know a little about him. If I could just find the name of his father it would help a lot. He was last in the 1850 census of Neshoba Co. His family listed. My grandmother in that census was listed as Jane and was 13 years old. Thanks for you note on the computer --maybe we can get them to working again and we can find our people. Billie

    1. [MSNESHOB] Joseph Abner Johnson aka Joab Johnson
    2. Ann McDonald
    3. This is from Sue Howard I just resent it so the name she was looking for is in the subject line so no one will miss it. Ann -----Original Message----- From: suehoward [mailto:suehoward@prodigy.net] Sent: Wednesday, October 22, 2003 8:04 AM Well, here's something for you. I have YET to find out what happened to my great grandfather, Joseph Abner Johnson (also known as Joab Johnson). He and wife, Mary Undine (Brown) Johnson were on the 1860 Neshoba County census with one child - my grandfather, John R. Johnson, born in 1859. They had another child in about 1861 - my great uncle, James H. Johnson. Within a few years, Mary had remarried to a widower - Judge Samuel McNeil. He was much, much older than she, probably about 40 years older. He had a grown son - Greenberry McNeil and a teenaged daughter. I'm pretty sure they were neighbors. Now, the only thing I can think of is that Joseph joined up with the Confederacy and went off to war, and was probably killed in the war. If he had died of natural causes, I would think I'd be able to find where he was buried, but so far, I haven't found his burial site. I believe that Mary married Judge McNeil because she was probably in dire straits, having to support two toddlers, and had no means of support. I don't know this, I'm just surmising, of course. If I could just find out the other units that were raised in Neshoba Co. other than the 40th (also known as the Neshoba Tigers or Mississippi Tigers) because I checked that one out, received the papers from MS Archives, and have decided that he was NOT my g grandfather. Or, if I could find out what other units men from Neshoba Co. might have joined up with. I know for a fact that there was more than one J. A. Johnson in Neshoba Co. The one that I got the papers for was a Joseph A. Johnson, born in 1844, and on the 1860 census, and he was living with a Norrel family in the Coffedeliah section. My great grandfather was born about 1837 in Alabama and had come from Pontotoc Co. around 1858/59. He and Mary married in Pontotoc Co. in July of 1858. I have a copy of their wedding license. Can anyone give me any suggestions. Thanks a lot. Sue (Johnson) Howard

    1. [MSNESHOB] Revised/Corrected: Rosa Alonzo Brown, Neshoba County, Miss., 1920
    2. I'm trying to find out where my great-grandfather Rosa's farm was in 1920. I'm sure he paid the usual and normal property taxes and such. Is there an online database of any kind that I might search to determine the legal property description and therefore it's location? As far as I can tell, everyone between us in the tree has passed so I have no living source for any information like this. Thanks in advance for any help you provide. Vern

    1. [MSNESHOB] Visit to Neshoba County
    2. Peggy, Now may not be a good time to do the research you plan in Neshoba County,MS. The Courthouse is undergoung extensive repairs, all records have been removed to another location. The Library (which is normally a very good place to begin) is also undergoing renovations. These problems may be cleared up by October but I would suggest you make a couple of phone calls before you go to see what will be available. Duaine Evans
