http://www.rootsweb.com/~tncrocke/cemetery/mcclellan.html I just discovered an alphabetized version of Floyd and Helen Johnson's record of McClellan Cemetery on the Crockett County genweb page. It has had two photographs added. David
Of the Madison County genweb pages I created, the most fun was the families page. I actually had started this page as part of my old Yesterday's Madison County web site. It was simply a list of links to online genealogies I had found. I enjoy surfing the web, so surfing looking for online Madison County genealogy was fun. It was my third page of this type. The families page was also the biggest pain in the neck. Web pages are ephemeral. You have to check the links periodically. I hated link checking. About half the time a page disappears, it is still online but has moved -- perhaps to another subdirectory, perhaps to a new server. I usually tried to refind a missing page When I ceased to be CC of Madison Co., the Families page was getting very dated. I have made one last final update, with new items, and placed it on my personal web site: http://www.netease.net/members/ddonahue/families.htm Some of the more interesting files I find when searching are almost trivial. One of the new links is: http://www.naturesync.com/~zoomastr/nance/misc/nancenews.html Nance in the News (from old Alabama newspapers), Sonia Nance Kinback This file has several mentions of Lucas Nance, one-time Jackson resident, whose first wife Mollie Rivers Nance (1844-1882) is buried at Riverside Cemetery (Lot 125). Not much genealogy; hovever, it does explain why Lucas is not buried beside Mollie -- he remarried, moved first to Russellville, AL, then moved to Fort Smith, AR. When I did genealogy before I started making web pages in 1997, I was always interested in where families went when they disappeared from Decatur or Henderson counties. This is carried over in the passing through segment of the families page for Madison Co. From some perverse reason I really enjoy finding web pages for these. The most interesting new link of this type is: http://perso.wanadoo.fr/rancho.pancho/Nichols.htm Nichols Family Genealogy, Claire Ortiz Hill This Nichols family was in Madison Co. ca. 1824-1830, then moved to Texas. This file is especially enjoyable because it contatins interesting selections from the journal of James Wilson (Jim) Nichols (1820- ). I have always assumed that the families page is a useful page, though I also am not sure that anyone but me looks at it. Maybe no one does. I should have placed a counter on it but I never did. If you are out there, enjoy web surfing, enjoy Madison Co. genealogy, and actually use this page, would you consider adopting it, placing it on your web site, and maintaining it? My other two families pages haven't been fully link checked since about 2002. David
