| c24824j | Nansue If you type your surnames in CASP it is easier for us to read them |
| c24824j | oops CAPS |
| huntsvilleADM | WOOLRIDGE's: Alfred Nicholson, Mary, Paralee T., Wallace, and William H. |
| Nansue | from what I understand he was born on the Choctaw nation, I'm not really sure |
| rocky | (I thought CASP must be some computer language there for a minute) |
| c24824j | Nansue Is he Indian then? |
| huntsvilleADM | LOL, Rocky! |
| c24824j | rocky lol nope just bad typing sorry |
| mscharcy | okay, I am trying to find information about SANDERS, Shedd, he was married to my great-great grandmother |
| huntsvilleADM | mary--do you want the info on Mary & William? |
| mary | Mary's gotta be the Wooldridge I wanted. What was her death date? |
| Nansue | yes he was, His father was David Ezekile Sanders and his mother was Sally Ray |
| c24824j | Nansue Have you tried the Dawes Rolls then or some of the Indian Heritage Pages? |
| Nansue | yes to no avail |
| huntsvilleADM | WOOLDRIDGE: Little Wallace (Footstone: L.W.) [Note: No last name or dates given. This stone was in the Wooldridge plot.] |
| c24824j | Nansue Mine are Indian too and I had to do some very deep digging to find them but keep searching |
| c24824j | Nan Have you also tried USGenWeb pages a lot of Indian stuff there also |
| Nansue | from stories that I remember he ran away from home at the age of 13 and migrated to MS, what I really would love is to be able to find info on David. David was married twice and from what I remember had about 24 children all total |
| huntsvilleADM | Mary WOOLDRIDGE: Died Sept. 4, 1897 aged 42 years. A member of Poplar Grove No. 2 W. C. Erected by Woodmen Circle. She was the sunshine of our home. |

| Granny | Welcome Jerry |
| huntsvilleADM | hi, Jerry--welcome. |
| mary | About Mary Wooldridge's husband, Wm. J. STODDARD, he is listed in city directory 1860 (I think) as "slave dealer." VERY upsetting! |

| c24824j | Hi jerry |
| huntsvilleADM | oooooooh, mary! Let me see if he's in here....... |
| rocky | In the 1850-60 time frame a Jim or James Miller, had a family in Franklin Co which included my |
| rocky | great grandmother, Ailey |
| rocky | oops' |

| huntsvilleADM | no--he's not listed, Mary. |
| huntsvilleADM | I also have the Jackson Co. Marriages book--if anyone needs a lookup........ |
| ............................ cjb joined............. | |
| mscharcy | do we need any special software to view gedcom files? |
| ............................ Cheryl left............. | |
| huntsvilleADM | If anyone else has books to share, please let us know........or if you live in Alabama and can do local lookups at the library or courthouse. |
| c24824j | cjb Hi |
| Nansue | will try your ala web page when I leave the chat tonight |
| huntsvilleADM | hi, cjb--welcome......... |
| c24824j | mscharcy yes but I use PAF it is free and easy to use |
| huntsvilleADM | ok, nansue! |
| mscharcy | will this software work on a macintosh c2? |
| Granny | Mary, check out Ancestry.com and go to the black history section and to the slave narratives. It is new and is free through February. You can type in your family Surname and possibly come up with interviews with slaves belonging to the family in the late 1800's. It was taken from direct interviews with the former slaves between 1929 and 1939. Fascinating reading. |
| huntsvilleADM | Also--I have a chat reminder and chat transcript list--if anyone wants on it so |
