Hi Mari, That is certainly a good possibility. I will see if I can check the census out and see if they appear there. Do you know what county Florence is in?

Noel, Lauderdale County. I looked at this site called "ALGenWeb". AMAZING! <VBG> (I'm just teasing) Anyway, I didn't see anyone listed for Landrum on their surname page. Ken's Mom knows just about everything there is to know about her family. I'll give her a call. She lives in Huntsville. Ken's home from work...gotta go burn something for supper.
