A NOTE FROM MR.
BALLARD--
I started out to copy
a hand lettered chart that may be of interest to Oglethorpe Researchers.
In the process of copying the chart, created by a lawyer and Justice of
the Alabama Supreme Court, I began to question a few things. I've included
some of those questions here. I almost chucked the whole idea but as Uncle
Rele might have said, "Here tis and Caveat Emptor."
I’m enclosing a photo
of the hand drawn chart

A.A. Evans, a great grandson of Vines Collier produced a hand drawn chart in (or after) 1898. In 1985 I received a Xerox copy of most of the chart from Aurelius Augustus Evan's niece, Frances Evans Walker, who wrote, "Uncle Rele was a lawyer with A.B., honorary A.M. and also L.L.B. degrees from U. of Ala. He was also a member of Ala. Supreme Court."
The records given below made by me, A.A. Evans Sr., this 16th day Nov 1898 is an exact copy of the original record made by my great grandfather Vines Collier in his family Bible, the family record leaf of which is now in my possession. He had issue 13 children.
