    3. Hi I hope you can clear up a mystery for me. I have a gggrandfather James Alexander Webb dob 11-2-1853 in Cherokee Co. Alabama or Cherokee Co. Georgia (I believe it is probably Alabama but not sure as I have records for both locals). He married Sarah (Sallie) Agnes Clifton on 2-7-1878 place unknown. James was Methodist preacher in Alabama, Texas, Oklahoma Territory and Oklahoma. He was licensed to preach in March 1878 and was appointed presiding elder of the Birmingham District on January 20, 1892 by Bishop Isaac W. Joyce. On December 1, 1897 Bishop C. C. McCabe transferred him to the Austin Conference. In the fall of 1903 Bishop John W. Walden transferred him to the Oklahoma Conference. The towns he preached in were Deer Creek, Supply, Arnett, Waynoka, Capron, Buffalo, Moreland, Delaware and Kaw City. James died in Kaw City, Oklahoma on June 10, 1922. I have all this information, but I don't know who his parents were, did he have any siblings or if he was born in Alabama or Georgia. I even have a photo of this fine gentleman. Could any one please tell me who his mama and papa were? Since he spent so much time in Kay Co. and died in Kaw City I was hoping someone on this list might be able to help. His death certificate would probably help, but to be honest the cost is a bit more than I can handle at this time. Can anyone tell me another way to get this information? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Jenny Lee Tolbert vernab1 ___________________________________________________________________ You don't need to buy Internet access to use free Internet e-mail.
