Hi All, Looking for information on a Margaret "Maggie" A. Morrison's marriage to a Charles A. Alston. I show that they were married Mar 5, 1876. I REALLY NEED to find info on Maggie's parents. All I have was she was suspossed to have been born Sep 22, 1858. Don't know where or to whom. After the death of Charles in 1884, she married Willie Garvin Coats (my Great-Grandfather) Jun 6, 1886. Both marriages took place in Decatur county Tennessee. On her marriage certificate to Willie, she was listed as Maggie A. Alston and for many years I thought her maiden name was Alston and she was a daughter of C.H.K. Alston, a minister in Decatur county. I just recently discovered the 1st marriage to Charles A. Alston, which made her a daughter-in-law to C.H.K. Alston rather than his daughter. This information blew my whole genealogy file apart, as I had traced the Alston's all the way back to the 1600's and now find they are really no relation. If anyone has any information on the Morrison or Coats families in the Decatur area, PLEASE let me know, and if anyone needs info on the Alston's and allied families to them just ask, I may have what you need.
