MOORE ARGROVES WHITE |
Bill Plock ~ Jan 7 2001
I am searching for any information on my grandfather that was born
in Berry, Alabama in October 1897. He was born to Jack and Zola Belle MOORE.
His birth name was probably Leroy MOORE but his parents took him to Atlanta
when he was very young and put him up for adoption. In 1900 he was adopted
by Rufus M. and Sarah Estes Todd ARGROVES. No one knows what became
of Jack or Zola Belle afterwards but Grandpa Leroy married Ruth Naomi WHITE
in 1916 and they had several children that lived in and around Columbus,
GA for the most part. Any information on the MOORE family will be greatly
appreciated.

I am searching for the date of death and burial place of my great-great-grandfather
William Asa BOBO. He was born in 1829 and married Harriet Skelton
17 March 1853 in Franklin County, Georgia. The 1860 census indicates that
William Asa BOBO, Harriett, and children lived in Fayette County, Alabama.
In "BOBO Cousins by the Dozens", only Harriett and children were listed
in the 1870 and 1880 census of Fayette County, Alabama. Harriett Skelton
BOBO died 10 September 1916 and is buried beside her son William BOBO in
the Chapel Hill cemetery in Fayette County, Alabama, but there is no indication
that William Asa BOBO is buried there. If you have information on the date
or burial place of William Asa, would you please share it with me. Thanks.

Need help in proving that MANLEY A. FILES, JR was the son of

for MANLEY SR., but his widow was in Fayette Co. in the 1850 census.
MANLEY JR. didn't leave a Will (since he was shot) and I cannot locate
any concrete evidence that they were in fact father and son. I "think"
MANLEY JR. was married to JANE DUNN, but I can't locate a marriage
record for them. Any help will be very much appreciated. Please
respond to BRochevot@aol.com. Thanks in advance.
