I'm looking for any records for Francis Marion England, 1845 - 1933. Military
file with 1st Alabama Calvary, Union Volunteers, states he was born in Morgan
County. He is my Great-great-great grandfather, but so far no one in our family
knows who his parents were. My brief perusal of the Morgan Co. Archive website
has not produced any material on this surname, let alone Francis Marion himself.
Any help is appreciated.

MORRIS/YOUNG
A gggggreat grandfather of mine and his wife moved into Moragn County in the
early 1800s -- John J Morris and Eliza Young. I understand they are buried in
the county, but have not found much about them at all. Is this a way I can find
their dates of death, places of burial, maybe a will, anything? I understand
Eliza died in 1874 and is buried in Piney Cove Cem. They had a number of
children (Van Buren Morris is his son thru whom I am decended), which I do not
know if they were born in Morgan County or in NC where the couple were married.
Possibly they lived somewhere in between NC and AL, but I haven't gotten that
far. Anything I can find out about John J Morris would be great!

C. Baty 12/13/2003
BATY
I have been researching the family of John F.[letcher] Baty whom married Mary
Jane {Wright}, 10 Jan.1873, in Howell Co., MO. I have found 13 children born to
them in Howell Co., between 1874 and 1895, then they moved to Indian Territory,
[later Oklahoma]. Johns' death certificate states he was born [Jan.1844] in
Marshall Co., AL. I can't find any trace of John, in census or any other records
prior to this marriage.I did find a John Baty in 1870 Morgan Co., Al. census,
but can't be sure if he is the same John.A possible for parents are William G.
Baty/Beaty & Sallie Grisham, not certain though, as some family members think he
was actually born to a Wiggins family then adopted by the Baty/Beaty family at
an early age. Don't know who his siblings were but present family members state
that they think were several. Maybe 16 I would like to hear from researchers
that show John F. as an ancestor or sibling of their ancestor, that might have
further info., about his parents or siblings.Hoping some one has some reliable
info. or can tell me where to find such adoption records if in fact there were
such records in Alabama in the 1850 time period. Thank you-
