This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/VJIBAEB/28374.1.1.1 Message Board Post: I don't immediately find a connection, however, Carroll Co. and Haralson Co. (Tallapoosa) are adjoing counties. Do you have birth years. My ggg grandfather was Armstead Smith b abt. 1811 m Elizabeth Stephens b abt 1817. They had several boys, William A. born abt. 1835, Jackson W. b abt 1837, Andrew b abt.1838, James H. b. abt. 1849, and Alfred W. (my gg grandfather) b 1852. I would not be surprising that some of them ended up in Carroll Co. I have not yet researched Alfred's siblings' families so I don't know about their children. I will keep your post in my Smith file and if I find anything helpful, I will let you know.
