Thank you so much for this information. dale johnson

Could somebody do a lookup.... Sarah Ann Whitehurst married William Van Hoose in Tishomingo or Alcorn Co l860-l885. I am interested in who signed the bond and if James T Whitehurst was the preacher who married them as well as the exact date. William Vanhose to Adeline D. Wright Feb. 3, 1869 Miss M.E. Vanhoose to E.H. Whitehurst Oct. 3, 1868 William Vanoose (incorrectly indexed) to Sarah Whitehurst Feb. 8, 1874 (All I have is an index published by Hunting for Bears. No other info in it.) Alcorn Co. Genealogical Society http://www.avsia.com/acgs My Home page http://www.genealogy.com/users/r/o/a/Vicki-B-Roach/

All the Tishomingo Co. Ms.Whitehurts were/are related. They are descendants of Arthur Whitehurst Sr of Pitt County, North Carolina and came out of that area first to Haywood Co Tn.then to Tishomingo Co Ms. dale johnson

Are the marriage records for Tishomingo available for the period 1920-1940? If so, I need a lookup for a Mr. "Alf?" or Alfred? Johnson to Maggie SMITH, formerly Streetman, between 1930 and 1934. Then for Levi Quinton MOCK between 1934 and 1942 to Maggie Johnson. Maggie Mae Streetman born 1901 was married three times. First husband was "Willie" Smith. I've never found a marriage record for them.

Hi, Dale. I know this doesn't answer your question, but are your Whitehursts by any chance related to John Thomas and Nancy Rachel (Palmer) Whitehurst? John was born in MS 1857 and Nancy in TN 1856. I believe they were both living in Tishomingo around the time peroid between 1860-1885. They were living in Cleburne Co. AR after 1900.

Each of the Peden men were given 500 acres of land in this community as payment for their service to the new country. They were also given an option to buy additional land for the ridiculous price of seventy-five cents per 100 acres. > > > > One of the first things these families did upon arriving in this place was to build a church, Fairview Presbyterian Church. It was a log building across the road from the present church. The present building is the fourth building to house the church, and opened in 1858. The Sunday School rooms were added in 1949, and the Office complex and Historical Building were dedicated in l986 at the celebration of the church's 200th birthday. > > > > The Peden Reunion was held for the first time in 1899.

We sometimes have as many > > as 400 attending when prominent family members such as General William Westmoreland and the late Senator John Stennis were the featured speakers. > > > > The rock walled cemetery is of great interest. The oldest marked grave is 1794, and about 750 graves are there. The original rock wall was build by slaves about l850, and enlarged in the early l930s. he men at Fairview have > > always been a patriotic group, and veterans of every war in the nation's history are buried there, except for those of the Gulf Wars, who are still living. > > > > We look forward to having a great reunion this year, and to meeting cousins we have never met before.
