katalar, think that John Benton came to DeKalb County around 1838

<Granny> 

Came to the Wills Valley area

<Granny> 

Children were Benjamin F., Mary Jane, Sarah Caroline, Nancy Rebecca, John Malon and James Adkins Morgan

<katalar> 

there is a William David Morgan son of Lewis and Martha Adams Morgan marrying an Elizabeth Ellis having 10 children first one born in 1842, photo of William in Book and a lot of names listed in article

<Granny> 

Doesn't sound familiar...

<katalar> 

you might have to email me there are several morgans listed in the entire book and also quite a few Nicholson’s you would probably get tired of waiting on me to look them up

<MizB>

<katalar>

<Granny> 

That could be...

<Granny>

<MizB> 

katalar is there an article about Morgan’s by Wanda Bassett Carter

<Granny> 

I know that there were other Morgan’s in DeKalb County, but don't know if they were related or not.

<Granny> 

Hi guest...you here for the genealogy chat?

* Granny 

MOTIONS/happy.gif Really have to go this time! :-) Nite MizB and katalar! Hope you can make it earlier next week katalar...with those books you will be very popular!

<katalar> 

Didn't find Wanda's name but there are Holdridges listed also in book

<MizB> 

Is there a John Henry

<katalar> 

These are big thick books that only have the surnames listed in the index so I have to go through each surname and check for the first name, that is why it takes so long.

<katalar> 

Is it John Henry Holdridge

<MizB> 

I am in no hurry Yes John Henry Holdridge

<katalar> 

checking

<MizB> 

if you need to go it's ok

<katalar> 

no the kids are in bed and husband is working

<MizB> 

hi guest you here for the Al chat please come an hour earlier next week

<katalar> 

it states in one article that Martha J. Holdridge was a charter member of Fairview Methodist Church at Dawson AL, let me check another page

<katalar> 

Same name on other page, it was for the churches of DeKalb

<MizB> 

That's mine Martha A. Jackson Holdridge married John Henry Holdridge 1865

<katalar> 

It doesn't state anything about them just her being a charter member

<katalar> 

There is a large article on the NICKOLSON line submitted by Fred Nicholson of Turrentine Ave. Gadsden AL

<Guest2638> 

I looking for the Smith line of Alabama which I know one line came through Russell Co. ,AL. Can I get some help on this?
