Have seen several postings re the Dodson name; I have a copy of deed d. 27 Dec. 1842 from Raleigh and Beverly Dodson, executors of Pressley Dodson, deceased, of Maury Co., to Samuel P. Wallace of Autauga Co., AL, in which they are selling part of Bressley Dodson's land that he received by certificate No 33540 and Cert. No 34088 d. 28 July 1838 (from the Cahaba Land Office.) I have in my files that Elizabeth Alford Dodson was born Halifax Co. VA about 1805, married Ephraim Wallace 3 Feb 1825 in Autauga Co., AL. Elizabeth was dau of Elizabeth Bates and Baptist minister, Rev. Pressley Dodson. I have children for Ephraim and Elizabeth Dodson Wallace. Jean Gayle

I, too am searching for the following in Maury, Hickman, Dickson Counties: WALKER, Elijah, b ca 1750-1770 Married Mary Elizabeth "Piney" McGILL Probably came originally from VA or NC Lived in GA from around 1790 - 1802 (very rough dates) Had a son, Elijah WALKER, b in GA 1802 His children married ADAMS, BRAZZEAL, HEARTLEY, McMURRY, McMILLAN Thanks for any info related to the above - and, of course, I would love to share. Tania, the fact that you are looking for the names MOORE, LOVE, and WALKER, leads me to believe that your WALKER may be one of the "Wigton Walker" group. Have you looked into this possibility? If you haven't, I can probably scrounge up an e-mail address. There is a closed list for this group. I belonged to it for over a year, because there are signs that my WALKER could have been of this group, as well -- but I haven't been able to make a connection. I distinctly remember that there was a MOORE and LOVE connection, however.

Which SIMS. Any connections to Augusta Charles ca 1817 d 15 Nov. 1896 Mt Pleasant Maury Co Tn. 1st m to Eveline L MORGAN, 2nd m to Rachel E DICKSON IRWIN? D.

In reply to Demastus@aol.com I don't know if my Sharps are connected to the ones you posted. I can trace mine back to John Sharp (b 1753 in PA. He was among those to first settle in Lewis County on Big Swan Creek about 1806. Wife unknown Children: Nathaniel Sharp William "Willis" Sharp (b abot 1782) Nehemiah Sharp John Sharp Edward Sharp Joshua Sharp James Sharp Margaret Sharp Samuel Sharp William "Willis" Sharp was my gggg grandfather. He married Eleanor Mayfield. Their son William Anderson Sharp was my ggg grandfather. I did notice the name of Anderson Sharp on your list. Perhaps this was a family name and we are somehow connected? Diana Sharp Clark Atascadero, CA

Hi Bert and A.L. Anderson, I can trace my line back to Jesse Sims born 1798 in NC. He married Jemima D. Hutchinson?. There children were Ann Sims John Sims William Sims James Sims Benjamin A. Sims Lydia Sims Harvey Sims George W. Sims Nancy Jane Sims (b. March 6, 1840 in Lewis Co.) Hulda Sims Andrew Sims Nancy Jane Sims was my gg grandmother. She married John Gardner Sharp. To A.L. Anderson - I can't find any Augusta Charles Sims. Do you see a connection? Thanks, Diana Sharp Clark Atascadero, CA

Hi Eldon, I see you are researching the Robinson family. I am trying to prove that Michael Robinson who died 1840 in Maury Co. was the son of Charles Robinson born 14 May 1759 NC, died 1827 Williamson Co., TN. Do you have them in your database?

Thank you for the response. I look forward to hearing more. Based on a SIMS book by Robert Owens, we think my wife's great-grandfather, James W. SIMS, was a son of Thomas SIMS and Mary Winn SIMS.

Are you connected to SELPH and LONG families that were connected to CRAIGs of Orange Co., N.C.? If so, I am descended from Capt. David CRAIG of Orange Co., N.C. His widow, Eleanor, came early to Maury Co. with sons to claim their father's Rev War military land grant. I recall a CRAIG woman who married into the SELPH family. Capt. CRAIG's mother was Margaret (LOGAN) LONG, widow of George LONG, who married 2) William CRAIGE.
