Thank you for
perusing my genealogy
pages!
If we connect, please feel free to write and let me
know.
Just recently
I had an email from a young man whom we had never heard of, Cecil
Mark Carter, Jr., son of cousin Mark , who was the son of Christine
and Cecil Earl Carter, who was my mother's older brother born about
1932 to Alice Emma McClain and Cecil Earl Fenn
Carter.
Mom would have
been so proud to have met him.
That is what
is so nice about having our family tree on the internet - we are
reaching out to find more of our relatives.
A lady in
Georgia wrote to me about my husband's lineage and now we are pen
pals and stay in touch - she connects to his grandmother Ella Olivia
Baxley and actually guided me to find the Coosa River Cemetery where
several are buried.
My apologies
for any links that do not work, sometimes things change, get moved
around by their servers, which is out of my control; rootschat
deleted all of theirs and now aol is doing the same thing, but
genforum seems to hang in there and it has everything I need to keep
our family tree thriving and growing. I have dozens of posts
on their message boards and enjoy meeting new cousins through that
communication.
In May 2007 my daughter and I went to Dublin
to meet up with some of my great grandmother's family on the Bozeman
side, where her sister had married a Gibson of that area and we
visited some graves behind Hills Chapel where Peter Bozeman was
buried and found the grave of granny Alice Lorena Stephens Bozeman
near his. Alice was his daughter in law. This trip brought together
many new ideas and theories of our lineage. In 2006 we went to Hope
Hull where the Bozeman's had their first plantation in 1827 and
found where my husband's great great great grandfather Thomas Carter
was buried there since he married one of the Bozeman girls of our
Uncle Jesse Bozeman. All fantastic findings, all migrating out of
South Carolina where so many once received Land Grants for their
father's military service in the American Revolution and now their
descendants had come to Alabama and served in the Civil
War.
