Bette, I have an F. J. Hale (no siblings listed) as s/o W. & M. Hale. I had F. J. md. to Nancy Hale (d/o Peyton G. & Amanda Cornett Hale). So I checked the marriage book for them and it says Fielden J. was s/o Warner & Mary Hale, Madison Co., NE. The "One World Tree" shows they had a son named Stephen (though it doesn't show a spouse for him.) Perhaps this is the couple you are looking for? Sue ----- Original Message ----- From: Bette Nelson To: VAGRAYSO-L@rootsweb.com Sent: Tuesday, July 04, 2006 9:23 PM Subject: [VAGRAYSO] HALE question Hi Folks, I'm wondering if anyone has been able to figure out who the parents were of Stephen Hale who married Matilda Dixon of Alleghany Co., NC. His marriage record says he was s/o W. & M. Hale of Grayson. They married 19 Jan 1886 in Grayson. She was d/o Zachariah & Ruth Ann Phipps Dickson of Alleghany. I found a Martha Hale (no spouse) in 1880 w/son Stephen of about the correct age. But I can't find her w/a spouse in 1870 in Grayson. As always, any help is greatly appreciated!

I know of two Parsons that were law officers - both died from being shot in the line of duty. BOth died before 1907 - one was Isaac Cox Parsons, s/o John W. & Catherine "Katy" Cox Parsons. Isaac died Sep 1890. His brother, James Crittenden Alexander died in 1903 in Centralia, WA. If you find another one from this family, I'd love to know who it was..
