BURGESS: To all those hard working folks who transcribed the newspapers (and
lots of other files): Thank you, thank you, thank you. After 10 years of
searching I finally found my g-grandfather's date of death. But, genealogy
research remains true to form: you learn one thing, then 10 more mysteries pop
up. Such is my case, so I hope someone can help clear up additional questions. I
found the obituary of W.L. (William Langford) BURGESS in "The Cleburne News",
Thursday, July 2, 1925. It states that W.L. BURGESS was survived by two sons:
ELBERT BURGESS, ALBERT BURGESS, and two daughters: MRS. B.D. OWEN and MRS. W.M.
AUSTIN, both of Edwardsville. In my records I have only one daughter, ATHIE
BURGESS, and she married JOHN T. POLLARD in 1887. Is one of the women mentioned
in the obit Athie's second marriage? Who is the other woman? Could the obit be
wrong (I know there are often errors in newspaper notices)? Another son, WILLIAM
A. BURGESS was not mentioned; did he predecease his father? Hope these names
ring a bell with someone out there. Thanks, Lynn Hulett

SMITH-CRUMPTON I am researching the JEHU CRUMPTON FAMILY and the ROBERT H. SMITH
FAMILY. ROBERT SMITH(b. 1808, SC) married SARAH "SALLY" CRUMPTON. Their oldest
son was my ancestor. He was WILLIAM ENOCH H. SMITH, b.18 -d. CIVIL WAR. He
married SARAH COUCH, daughter of JOSEPH COUCH. (see the 1850, 1860, 1870,
RANDOLPH and CLEBURNE, AL CENSUS RECORDS).ENOCH and SARAH had five children:
JOSEPH ELBERT "JOE TURK", MARY LUCINDA, NANCY, MALINDA, and SARAH.I think that
ROBERT SMITH was a son of GEORGE SMITH and NANCY COLLIER. Here again, look at
the 1850 Census records for RANDOLPH COUNTY, AL. It's all there. The Smiths and
Collier Families, along with the Crumpton Families are all along the Macedonia
Road from LOST CREEK to MACEDONIA!!!!! Study the 1860 Randolph Census. ENOCH
SMITH and SALLY COUCH along with their five little children must have recently
arrived in the area, because they are in the household with ROBERT and SALLY.
Please E-MAIL me if you want additional info. I was born in a house on the GA/AL
Stateline Rd. where four generations of my family lived. I know the area like
the back of my hand. If I can help you, please let me know. PEGGY

I am trying to find out any information on my late grandfather Sam Rudd and
grandmother Lula Bell. They lived around the Cleburne/Talladega area in the
early 1900's. He married Lula Bell who already had two or three children and she
and Sam had Frank, Jesse, TJ, Nellie, and Lula Bell died in childbirth having my
father. Sam placed all the children in the Talladega orphanage. My father was
adopted. I'm having trouble trying to find anyone who may remember them. I had
been told that Lula Bell may have been a Robinson, a Rowe, or a Helton but that
is not concrete. Also she may have been native american. Thanks in advance. K.

PALMER,MALONE (home burned, probably moved afterward) TORRENCE/TORRANCE (Richard
only given name, dau Alice also) CHAPPELL, Martha Amanda (redhead, married John
W. MALONE, had twins plus)all 1800s dates for above familes in Cleburne Co.
Death date needed for Alice (Alus)(nee' TORRANCE) PALMER and infant son
Sherman,(she was married to Joseph Elijah PALMER) she & baby "disappeared"
sometime after Sherman's birth (1892 -1894, more probably the later). Have heard
of adult and infant skeletons discovered in a well years later, but spouse seems
to have remarried (14 Jan 1904) so some death date was probably used. Would also
like birth years on 4 children of Joseph E. and Orader (nee' MOORE)
PALMER.(early 1900s dates)
