BYSTROM, LAGERSON posted by Mark Benner on Monday, July 3, 2000

Being a LAGERSON descendant, I've hit a dead end(?) Would like to hear from another LAGERSON descendant / relative / researcher in Calhoun County. My ancestor was Rev. Victor E. LAGERSON of Aniston, Alabama. In the 1896 Anniston City Directory, he was listed as "retired", no mention of his wife. Would like to know where he is buried, (most likely Aniston). His son, William LAGERSON is buried in Edgemont Cemetery, Aniston, but no stone on his plot. No record of his wife, Christine (BYSTROM) LAGERSON, either. William and Christine, Swedish born, were my maternal great grandparents. Sure could use some help here! benner@clinic.net

BROWN, GOLDEN posted by Neil Vaughan on Sunday, July 30, 2000

Am looking for information on William Thomas GOLDEN (14 Aug 1859 - 3 Oct 1935) m. Cornelia BROWN (2 Sep 1861 - 17 Jan 1954). Both are buried in the Sand Hill Cemetery in Varnville, S.C. All info that I have speculates that he was from Calhoun County, AL. and had family in Anniston. He came to S.C. as a music teacher and married. He and Cornelia had one son, William Andrew GOLDEN. As a young man, Thomas was in an altercation in a card game and left S.C. for many years only to return shortly before he died. It is thought that he always maintained contact with his family in Anniston.
