We are looking for the parents and siblings and or any other relatives of Nancy Caroline ADDISON born 15 Aug 1856 in Covington, St. Tammany Parish,LA. She had one child named Alice Thomas, probably in St. Tammany Parish. Then several years later Nancy married Branson SPIERS from McNeill, MS. Married 31 Aug. 1888 in McNeill, MS. She was living in Slidell, LA. when she and Branson met( we think ). Branson and Nancy had one child, Wilmer Joel SPIERS, born 20 Apr 1887 in Slidell, St.Tammany Parish, LA. After marriage, Branson, Nancy, Alice Thomas and Wilmer Joel lived the rest of their lives in or near McNeill, MS.. I am D. Terry SPIERS, the great grandson of Branson and Nancy. We do know that at least two of Nancy Caroline ADDISON's brothers visited her in MS. and stayed for a while before going back to somewhere in LA.( no names though ). Any information would be a great help. You can contact me --- dtspiers@datastar.net

My great great grandfather was Joseph St. Ange BOSSIER. His wife was Frances Ann Thompson BOSSIER. (BOSSIERE) Anyway, her grandfather wasn Gideon JOHNSTON of Warrenton, Va Fauquier County. Her mother was Elizabeth Johnston THOMPSON. Gideon JOHNSTON was a Captain in the Revolution. He received land as payment for his service. This land in time was inherited by his granddaughter Frances Ann THOMPSON, and two grandsons William JENNINGS and Augustine JENNINGS. I knew of Frances Ann THOMPSON but knew nothing of the JENNINGS. Would like to find out if anyone knows who their mother was, and also their father. Was their mother Fannie Johnston JENNINGS? Was their father Thomas JENNINGS? If anyone knows the answer to this puzzle, please get in touch with me at Nburke-hixson@worldnet.att.net. Thanks for any help you may give me and I will surely share what I have. Nellie A.

PECON/PICHON/BLACKWELL/PICAFELD/PETETFILLS
Mona Ray
lray@blkbox.com
3/14/01
On the 1812 St. Tammany tax list is Francois PECON or PICHON, 1m, 1f, 4 children. On her widow's pension application, Mary BLACKWELL, widow of Nathan BLACKWELL of Washington Parish, says she was Mary PICAFELD and married Nathan in 1811 in St. Tammany. This is not in St. Tammany marriage records. It is possible, even likely, that the name on the pension application was not spelled correctly. I can't find any PICAFELD in St. Tammany or Washington, in fact, have never seen it in any record or index. Could this PECON be my PICAFELD? And what happened to this PECON family? In Pike Co in 1820 there is a Frances PETETFILLS, and I've found no other records on this family. Is this possibly part of the same family? Spelling variations on French names seem to be much broader than English names.

Searching for information on Jules BRADY living in St. Tammany Parish, in the town of Madisonville. He is listed in the 1880 census living with a wife, Anna, and 5 children. I have reason to believe that he is the same man that was born in Paris, France, moved to the US in the early 1840s and settled in Summerfield, Dallas CO., Alabama. He and his first wife Albine had seven children. Jules enlisted in the Civil War in 1861, and after going off to war, I suspect he deserted his family and settled in LA and started a new family. When Jules BRADY was living in Paris he was a musician. After settling in Alabama he was a teacher and I have information that he also was a teacher in LA. If anyone can find a copy of the 1880 census listing Jules BRADY, I would certainly appreciate a copy of it and would gladly pay for time and materials. Am just searching for any and all information of Jules BRADY, his movements, deeds to land, etc. You can contact me at jbk6397@aol.com or write to me Brady Wooten Kerr/6397 Loch Arbor Drive, Flowery Branch, GA 30542.

I'm searching for information about Celia Morgan born about 1824. She married Wm. Sanders in Washington Parish, La. They are listed in the census in Washington Parish until 1860. By 1870 they disappear from the census. My g. grandfather, Carroll M. Sanders, was born in 1862; he and his siblings are living in the household of Wm. & Minerva Perkins in Calcasieu Parish by 1870. I'm assuming Celia Morgan m. to Wm. Sanders died between 1862-1870. There were Morgans that moved to Amite Co., Ms. by the early 19th century or earlier. Some of their descendants migrated to East Feliciana Parish. I found this in the East Feliciana Parish, La. Original Conveyances V. 3, Bk 1 dated 23 Jan, 1828: Prissella Richardson to her gc Celia Morgan, Wm. Field Morgan, & Mary Jane Morgan c of John Morgan & Corbi Morgan. I believe that Celia Morgan mentioned in the conveyances to be my g,g, grandmother. I'm searching for her parents. Some of the Morgans went to East Feliciana from Ky. and some from Ms. who were from N.C. There are also some Morgans on the 1852 St. Tammany Parish Mortgage Index. I'd appreciate any help. June

DORMAN age 44 lawyer, wife Ruth age 33 Caroline dau. age 12 and roomer Ellen Crochet? 76. Because: My great grandma had a sister Louisa C. STINSON. She was raised in Pike Co., Ala. and married James DORMAN in Pike Co. They moved to Texas, to then Titus Co., with her Stinson relatives after the Civil War. She had two sons: John Robert who married a Minnie Louisa STOKES and had children Homer L. b. June 1889, Florence G. b. Feb. 1891, Alice A. b. March 1893, Beulah M. b. Jan 1895 according to Titus Co., Texas 1900 census, ED 120 Sh. 11A. Also in the household is JAMES L. DORMAN brother b. Aug 1873, Texas and a half brother WILEY E. DORMAN b. Oct. 1881 in Louisianna From my research, after Louisa C. and James Dorman married, they migrated to then Titus Co, Texas & in 1873 they sold their Titus Co. (now Franklin Co.) improved property to a BEALL. They then disappear; I can't find them in the everyname index for 1880 even by initials so may have been in Oklahoma. In 1897 a J.R. Dorman appears on the tax rolls of Titus Co. which may be John R. Dorman from the 1900 Titus Co. census. A J.L. Dorman (James L.?) also appears on the tax rolls in 1900 after that year I find no Dorman's with the right initials on the Titus Co. tax rolls. Ring any bells? Many thanks!
