looking for birth or other records related to Robert Lee Sowell born April 19, 1900 in Lauderdale County Missippi
On January 27 I sent the following querie
I am trying to find out if there were any Skiles living in or near Meridian, MS. My father remembers reading an article in the local newspaper (Meridian) shortly after WW II about a Cortia Skiles (female) that was accidently shot. She did survive. He thinks this might be a child or a grandchild of his Uncle William Skiles who was born February 28, 1859 in Dent CO, MO. When William was about 6 or 7 his family moved to Alexander CO, IL. William grew and became a traveiling minister and salesman. I have not heard anything from you, and I nooticed it not listed in you home page queries.
Did you receive this querie or not? If so please let me know. I really would like to have it submitted.

I am searching for information about my g-grandparents, Henry McGHEE and Mattie E. SMITH. They were married on 9 Jan 1889, in Meridian, Lauderdale Co. She was born c. 1864 in Alabama, according to census records. They had two children, Langdon and Helen Powe. I know next to nothing more about these two and the only other possible connection is L.C.Smith who was a witness at their marriage and a Frank McGhee living in the same city who was probably related to Henry.

I am looking for a Gt.grandfather Henry H. Hopgood/Hobgood. I believe that he belongs to the Hopgood/Hobgood Family from Lauderdale MS. He is with this family in 1850 in Anscon Co., NC. I cannot find them in the l860 census, but think that they were in MS. He came to Mo and married Eliza Oldham. They moved to Ala. or MS and she died. He asked Mo family to come get the four children and was never heard of again. This would have been somewhere around 1885. I have looked for years and really need some help. Charles Henson Hobgood/Hopgood of Lauderdale,Ms, I think is his father
