Hi Fellow Nix Decendants, I am looking for information on a Nix line whose first location I can establish was in Tallapoosa, Bibb, Alabama. My father had told me that his great grandfather had immigrated from Ireland but I have no details on that other than he had an Irish accent. My great great grandfathers' birth date was 1790. He married Martha "Patsy" Hamilton who was born in 1810. They had nine children,one of whom was my great grandfather Pleasant Nix. He married Sara Nix and apparently they moved to Calhoun Co, Miss. where they had eight children,one of whom was Horace Newton Nix who married Anna Mae Rounsaville, reportedly of Cherokee Indian descent her father,Wesley Rounsville being full blooded Cherokee(per reported family hx.) They had nine children,one of whom was my father Bernice Francis Nix who was born in Calhoun Co. in 1915 and died last year in 1997.My grandfather reportedly worked in a medical capacity in Ponotoc Ms. He died in Snow Lake, Helena, Arkansas in 1953 and is buried in Dividing Ridge Cemetary near Coffeeville,Ms. Anna died on July 20,1940, and was buried in Calhoun Co. I would appreaciate any information anyone could provide regarding this set of Nix's June McIntyre mcintyrj@netdoor.com
