I am trying to find some info on Jane SPEARS listed on the 1870 Fayette Co Al, East District.  There are nine children listed no father in family, among the children listed is Pleasant C who is my ggrpa and Robert J my great uncle, as to the rest of the children I dont know. 

My Grgrpa P C served in the Union Army and was wounded in Jan 1865 and was discharged in Oct of same year.  He along with his Mother Nancy Jane Harden Spears and Brother Robert Settled in Conway Co Ar @ 1870.  I cant locate them on any 1870 census tho, my ggrpa married in Conway Co in 1874.  I am trying to find what happened to the other seven children since only Robert is listed on the 1880 1880 census in Conway Co and of course Pleasant and his family are listed.  The children are as listed Juda Ann Cannela Pleasant C Mary M (probably for a BIVENS aunt) Nancy C ( for her mother) M A(Probably Martha for a Harden Aunt) Wm G John H (probably for his grpa John HARDEN) Robert I or is some cases J , it is indeed Isham.  On Roberts death cert it lists Glen Allen as his place of birth, and he was born in 1858 or 1859 and died in July of 1933 in Conway Co Ar. 

Any help you can give me on this I would appreciate so much.  I do have info for the father of this family.  His name was James Pleasant SPEER, b 1821 Fayette Co Tn and died in Smith Co Tx in 1887 he divorced Nancy Jane and Married Tabitha DANIELS in Yalobusha Co Ms, Year UK. albaile3317@sedona.net

I am descended from Joseph WRIGHT of Fayette Co., Al.  His sons were James J., William Pleasant, Richard Razzy, Jesse H., and Thomas Poe WRIGHT.  These sons are listed in the 1850 Fayette County Al. census.  There were other children born after they left Al in about 1854.  The family settled in Polk Co., Texas between Onalaska and Moscow.  The farm houses of Thomas Poe WRIGHT and Jesse WRIGHT still stand as well as some old log barns built by slaves. 

William Pleasant WRIGHT was my GGrandfather, both he and his brother Richard Razzy WRIGHT served in the 25th TEXAS Cal. CSA in the Civil War.  Richard Razzy, Thomas Poe, and Jesse H., are buried in the WRIGHT cemetery in Onalaska, Texas. 

William Pleasant WRIGHT died in Springer N.M. in 1891 and is buried there, although I don't know the exact location of the grave. William Pleasant WRIGHT called "Plez" married Sofrona Alice BOYED (Indian woman) in Liberty Co., Texas on June 17, 1869.  The marriage license was issued and is on file at Polk Co, Texas.  They had the following children: Mollie E. WRIGHT (B) 11-01-1871 Hood Co., Texas R. (Lum) WRIGHT (B) 01-24-1875 Frankfort, Ar. J.L. (Joe) WRIGHT (B) 11-03-1879 Frankfort, Ar. Razzy Boyd (Pooly) WRIGHT (B) 05-09-1878 Frankfort, Ar. Mae WRIGHT (B) 08-23-1880 Frankfort, Ar. James Berton WRIGHT (B) July 14, 1887 Seminole Indian Res. T.P. (Taddie) WRIGHT (B) 08-30-1891 Springer, N.M. (D) 09-18-1891 Springer, N.M.(Smallpox) 

On September 20, 1891 Plez WRIGHT died of smallpox.  Sofrona Boyed WRIGHT remarried Mac McCoy, and she died in 1918 in OK.  Any info on this family, especially the names of Joseph WRIGHTS parents and any info on his wife is appreciated.

I would like to update the query I posted a few days ago.  One of my ggreat aunts Mary Malinda SPEARS married James J ALDREIDGE in 1866.  And they are buried along with some of their family members in the Hopewell Cemetery in Fayette Co.  Would like to correspond with any of the living descendants.  My great uncle Robert I.s place of birth was listed as Glen Allen on his death cert.  Thanks so much ~ Al Bailey albaile3317@sedona.net

I would like to know if anyone knows if there are any records of who is buried at Boone Cemetery in the early 1900's, or any records from the early days of New Hope Church.  New Hope is at a little place that used to be called Shakerag in Fayette Co.
~ Thanks, Imogene Watkins Smith

Does anyone know about Lucinda HARPER who is buried in Hopewell Cemetery near Glen Allen AL?  She was born 12-22-1839, d.1-1-1887.  Her grave has a large head stone and foot stone and a solid concrete covering over the grave.  I believe I saw her listed in a census (Walker Co or Fayette County) as daughter of John Lyle.  I believe John Lyle was a unionist.  In one census, she was in the household of Nancy Jane Berryhill Harper, widow of Josiah Harper, a Unionist.  This Hopewell Cemetery is where the Revolutionist soldier, George Tucker, SR is buried.  I would greatly appreciate hearing from anyone who knows about Lucinda Harper.

I am researching the family of Wiley H. Fields, my GG Grandfther, and Judy Brooks, his wife.  1860 state census indicate he was living in Fayette County.  I would greatly appreciate any help with information of Wiley H. Fields after 1860, especially location of burial, date of death etc.  I've been researching the Fields Family for about 40 years now and would be more than willing to share info.  ~ Jim Fields
