Ladies and gents : I have spoken to many of my family whom have been nicknamed Fannie over the years and not one of them have ever actually been named Fannie or anything even remotely related like Frances or anything like Fannie. SO keep inmind that people chose nicknames sometimes based on absolutely nothing we can think of now. I also had an aunt nicnamed "Pram" we still cannot figure that one out and wait until a 100 years from now and let the people figure out how my relatives wonder how my younger sister became "CONITA"?? Do you think they will figure out that as a 10 year old , my parents had already had 7 kids and allowed me to help name this one and I made up the name using half of my best friends name COnnie and half of my mothers first cousin's name Venita?? I do not think so! Believe me, no one else has my sisters name! So good luck y'all. alyce in minnesota.

I have this one marrying Fannie BIBB rather than Elizabeth BIBB. Is this a different one but perhaps in the same family? Of course I am interested in the TALLEY connection but also the BIBBs as I descend from both families. I also have from another source that Joel ESTES who married Elizabeth BIBB --- valouisa-request@rootsweb.com wrote: > ____________________________________________________________________________________ Food fight?
