I am looking for any information regarding a marriage of my gggrandpa_________Jeffcoat marrying a _________Allison.It would of been between 1800-1840.... They had at least 3 children : Allison Jeffcoat b,1840,Wes Jeffcoat and Eliza Jeffcoat.We believe they named Allison after his mother's maiden name. In turn he named his son Allie Allison and so on..... My ggrandpa Allison Jeffcoat was in 17th Inf Ga in Civil war and married Cynthia Lindsey abt 1864. They had children Wes,Alfred,Elizabeth,Samuel b.1867 in Ga in and Allie b.1875 in AL. Allison Jeffcoat returned to AL after Civil War and found his homeburned and his parents dead.He only found a brother and 2 of his sons alive... Allison Jeffcoat's mother's maiden name was Allison and was from N.Carolina. His father last name was Jeffcoat and was probably from SC that later moved to AL...Allison Jeffcoat's wife Cynthia Lindsey was from Crenshaw Co,AL.But Cynthia died and so did 3 of their children between 1876-1880.. Allison Jeffcoat then moved to Tyler co,Tx in 1880 and married Martha Middleton in 1881 and had 11 children....Allison Jeffcoat's brother Wes moved to Jacksonville FL after Civil War and so did his sister Eliza Jeffcoat.Eliza Jeffcoat married a Henry Burke...They had a child henry Burke Jr. Any information,please let me know.
