Elizabeth Longino/Robert Cross-Coosa Co AL
Hello,
I am not related to the Cross/Longino family. Found them in Coosa Co AL because of my Cottons living with them in 1880 Census of Coosa.
Cemetery Records of Coosa Co AL Vol III by Coosa Co Gen and Hist Society - Rockford AL
Bethel Primitive Baptist Church Cemetery Pg 16
Elizabeth Cross 29 Jul 1805/25 Feb 1883
Robert Cross 17 Dec 1803/19 Oct 1880
Elizabeth Cross is listed as the Mother-in-law of John Brooks and wife Nancy A. Brooks page 139A of 1880 Coosa Co Census Dist 48 Brooksville, Coosa Alabama (later known as community of Equality, AL.
Nancy A. Brooks b 18 Oct 1828 d l Dec 1903 buried in the Brooks Cemetery near Equality, AL.
J.T. Brooks b 25 Oct 1829 d 31 Jan 1896 (I am assuming this is John- not sure as age doesn't match census.
On 1880 Census with John Brooks and his wife Nancy A. Brooks are children with surnames Lawrence, Adkins, Wilbanks,David, Osa and Author Cotton, Tom Bowran age 76 b in GA.
My interest is in the Cotton children and what connection they might have with the Brooks family.
Thanks Eleanor Greene Hemmes
