I am looking for information on George B. COBB and Caroline SPEERS (not sure if last name is correct).  They appear in Fayette County in the 1850 and 1860 Census.  And also in Sanford (now Lamar County) in the 1870 Census.  George was born between 1818 and 1820 in SC and Caroline was born between 1820 and 1825.  Caroline is listed in the 1880 Cullman County Alabama Census as Pernicia Cobb. George's parents were Wilson COBB and Grace Greenwood SEABORN.  Some of their known children were: William (b. 1844) Mary (b. 1846) John (b. 1850) Malvinia (b. 1854) Thomas A. (b. 1856) James R. (b. 8/6/1860 d. 5/23/1926) Sarah J. (b. 1863).  Any help would be appreciated.

LIVINGSTON and SANDERS connection, Fayette and Lamar counties, AL By Patricia L. Dakin, [email protected] Seeking information regarding SARAH LIVINGSTON who married JAMES A. SANDERS, 15 Jan 1869, Fayette Co., AL. at the home of John Sanders.  It is believed that James A. Sanders, b. abt 1852, AL, was the son of J. J. Sanders, and Rosannah. 

Could Sarah’s parents have been Richard Carvin Livingston and his wife Harriet?  Sarah was listed as age 2 on the 1850 census, Fayette Co., AL.  She was not listed on the 1860 census as Sarah, but possibly as “Delia.”  However, I believe that was possibly either another given name or a nickname.  This child was listed as age 9, but almost all the other children’s ages were off, therefore, I wonder if they were the same individual.  There is confusion as to her place of birth, either AL or MS; I know her father lived in MS about the time she was born. If she was the correct individual, there were two younger siblings born in MS,  It is my belief that this SARAH LIVINGSTON was somehow related to the Livingstons in Fayette/Lamar counties.  I have no one else in this family group who be this particular Sarah Livingston, at least with that birth date.  Per census data, the family is tracked:

1870 Fayette Co., post office Pilgrim’s Rest, 1st July: 12-12-
Sanders, J.A. – age 18, farmer, b. AL
S.E. – age 18, keeping house, b. AL (b. abt 1852)
M.J.R.A.E. – female, age 8 months, b.Febr.

They are living next to J.N. (Jackson) Livingston and his wife Mary Ann (McCool) [HH 13].  Living in HH 14 was R.C. (Richard Carvin) Livingston and his wife Martha Elizabeth (Parker) [Sanders], and her son Joel H. Sanders.  His father was William A. Sanders, who died in the Civil War.  This Richard Carvin Livingston and Jackson N. Livingston were brothers.  They were too young to have been Sarah Livingston’s parents; I believe they were her uncles.  And to add to the confusion, perhaps the individual below was not the correct Sarah (Livingston) Sanders, however, I believe it was.  The lack of a daughter on this census indicates that possibly the child died?

1880 Fayette County, June 19, Beat 10: 175-176-
Sarah Sanders, age 25, widow, b. MS, father b. AL, mother b. MS
James M. – age 7, son, b. AL, father b. AL, mother b. MS
Arty A. – age 4 months?, b. Feb., son, b. AL, father b. AL, mother b. MS
She living near Jackson N. Livingston, Harvey Sanders, William W. Sanders, John Sanders, age 47.

Sanders, Sallie, b. Feb. 1853, age 47, Widow, mother of 4 children, 4 living, b. MS, father b. AL, mother b. MS
A.A. – son, b. Feb. 1878, age 22, single
BIRTIE, son, b. Dec. 1885, age 14, single, b. AL, father b. AL, mother b. MS -- In the 1910 census, however, he was listed as age 21, thus making his birth date about 1880-1881, possibly after his father’s death, since his mother was listed as a widow/divorced in 1880.

Obtained from 1820-1870 Business Journal in North Carolina.  Journal belonged to E. ARANT and John Arant b.1825.  The journal mentions sending money to: Fayette County Alabama to a Mr. Phillip NOTTS? AOTTS? IOTTS? JOTTS?.  It was a lot of money $625.  The journal records this transaction around 1837 -1840.  This was not a relative of ours that I know of.  I think that this Mr. Phillip was someone promenient.  I think that the money was for land purchased, court case, or supplies. Anyone with any information of this man, please email me at [email protected].  One of our family, Phillip Arant moved to Lowndes, Alabama in 1831.  His family lived there, but this entry is much later and clearly says: Fayette County and Phillip.  

Ruth Anne G.Bowles Wed Oct 12 2005
I am researching my mother's family and have come to a stand still with her mother's parents.  I am not for sure where they lived but I do remember her talking about growing up in the Winfield area.  My grandmother's name is Jesse Heleon (Holliman) Moore.  She married James Ellis Moore in 1925.  Her parents names were W.P. HOLLIMAN - father; and Teenie Lillian JOHNSON.  My grandmother was the eldest and after Lillian died was responsible for the younger ones.  Lillian died after giving birth when Jesse was about 11 years old.  The infant's name was Anne and she married Rudy Mitchell.  I believe there were 2 or 3 boys between Jesse & Anne.  If any one could help me I would greatly appreciate any info they are willing to share.
