John and Sarah owned the store called McGeHee
Switch at Hope Hull
Sarah and John's children were William Wylie,
Ethel Pearl, Annie Bell, Sallie Mae, Walter Coy,
Jesse Graves, D Leon, John Luther, and Octo
Claude.
Jesse Graves Bozeman married Lorraine Duncan
and had Norman Richard Bozeman. Walter Coy
married Ruby Slauson and had Richard Wallace
Bozeman who also named a son Richard, and he is
also researching this lineage.
John was the son of Meedy G Bozeman and
Rebecca Brewer who had married in 1855
Montgomery.
She was widowed with two children according
to the documents Wayne found.
They also had Susan, Henry, Phillip Brewer
Bozeman, Martha, Jesse, Meady.
The young Meady married Belle D. Gregg and
had Albert Bozeman in 1878
The elder Meedy G was the son of William
Henry Bozeman and Martha HIll who had migrated
into Montgomery Alabama from Darlington South
Carolina, both with fathers who had served in
the American Revolution.
William Henry was the son of Peter Bozeman.
William Henry died by 1848 according to his
estate papers, and his brother Jesse was the
Administrator. Jesse paid William's son John
Thomas $247.00 for his share of the estate.
Jesse also filed for a Writ of Dower for the
widow Martha.
When Peter died, in 1829, Jesse filed for the
estate sale and Wiliam Henry was listed on those
documents. Then again in 1838, apparently when
Sarah died, Jesse filed to sell off Peter's
land, and William was once again listed as an
heir.
Sarah and Peter's chldren were Meady, Peter
E., Jesse M. , William Henry and Lucy. Meady is
not listed as an heir in the estate because he
died about 1827. Perhaps he was ill during the
journey from Darlington to Montgomery, we just
do not know but his son was Captain Peter Henry
Bozeman in the Mississippi Infantry of the
Confederates.
Peter's son Peter E. Bozeman married Gilly
Goodson in Alabama and moved to Louisiana and is
now being researched by Sharon Johnson.
Sarah Brown married Peter Bozeman in December
1786 in the Cheraws District of Darlington
County, South Carolina, as written by one of
their neighbors, Reverend Evan Pugh in his
"Diaries".
Peter had served in the American Revolution,
had several records of payment, mentioned in the
South Carolina Militia book, listed on the SC
Roster with his father Mordecai, and others like
John, Paul. Ralph, who may be brothers of Peter
All likely from Bladen County North Carolina
which was just across the river from where they
received their Land Grants. The SC Archives
indicate that Peter's land was surveyed in June
1826 , possibly to sell, so he could begin his
journey to Alabama.
