            After forty-five years, midwest author &
            economist John Claude Redfern of Palmyra, IL
            in Macoupin County returned to France for a
            family reunion. In 1958, John along with his
            sister and his brother were adopted by rural
            adoptive parents, Mr. and Mrs. James Redfern
            of Palmyra, IL in Macoupin County. Recently,
            his nephew visited the St. John Foundation
            orphanage in France. Then, the directors of
            the orphanage located John's natural mother
            Georgette Huth. During March 6-12, John made
            a tour of the countries of Germany, France,
            Belgium, Luxemburg, and Netherlands. John
            gain valuable insights about historical
            development in these countries. John met
            Georgette in Metz, France meeting her family
            later in their village home. In mid-March,
            John returned home to central Illinois. John
            has become a prominent writer through his
            publishing entrepreneurship S.B.C.A.P. John
            is working, writing and publishing his sixth
            international publication, Palmyras USA, for
            its public release in late fall, 2003. The
            historic book is a microcosm of Main Street
            America. The book has a chapter about each of
            the toured Palmyras giving a narrative,
            socioeconomic perspective about their history
            & their future. The conclusion details the
            truths about sustainable development and the
            reform recommendations needed for progressive
            development in Main Street America. John has
            traveled throughout the country touring main
            street communities. He spoke at the meetings
            of city councils, historical societies, and
            public assemblies. The grand tour has
            included sixteen of the Palmyras in the
            country. Currently, John is planning main
            street tours of Palmyra, AK, Palmyra, NY and
            Palmyra, NC. John received honorariums
            including the keys, the caps, and the plaques
            of main street communities. John received
            extensive coverage from the mass media
            including the regional television stations.
            John's latest book, The New Wave Millennium,
            Rural Economies, and Human Rights,
            demonstrated that the damage done by
            modernization is curtailed using an
            alternative model for sustainable development
            in Main Street America. John's books in The
            New Wave series have received rave reviews,
            especially from his mentors, historians &
            economists. John's three masters including a
            Master of Economics. His web sites detail his

            Hello..
            This is to those cousins who are reading...
            Located Bolin Green BAILEY as an infant/1year
            old in Blount County, AL..1860 census. His
            parents were James M. BAILEY and Eliza. Had
            one older brother, John C. Bailey born circa
            1856...B.G. was born 1859. Around 1865 a
            daughter was born to this family, Luscinda
            BAILEY.. and they came to Arkansas shortly
            after that settling in Drew County, they are
            on the 1870 census for Drew. Sometime in the
            early 1870's Eliza died...maybe
            childbirth..don't know...but James M. Bailey
            remarries a widow with several children
            living in the same county...Mary Tidwell. In
            1878 Bolin Green (B.G.) marries his
            step-sister, Nancy E. Tidwell, in Lincoln
            county. They settle in Little Garnett. In
            1880 census records, James M (recorder has N)
            BAILEY is in LIncoln county too, Cane Creek
            area. Just thought I would pass along these
            findings... Still searching for exact

Comments:
            Hello,
            Bolin Green BAILEY was my 2g.grandfather, and
            his 1st wife, Nancy E. Tidwell was my
            2g.grandmother. I would like to locate an
            obit on them, or death certificate. Wrote to
            State department for one on B.G. since he
            died in 1925; but they could not locate
            anything. I know he died then because that is
            the only date on his tombstone. Nancy died
            3/9/1896 she was approximately 33. Thought
            maybe the Ledger might have something...or
            the Gazette. Hopefully someone cna help me
            locate an obit on these two. Thanks Tricia

Comments:
            I have a George Bates (b.1828) who is on the
            Lincoln Co. census in 1880 and forward until
            his death after 1910. The 1880 census shows
            George Bates WM 52 KY/VA/VA, Martha WF 32
            Ark/Ger/Tenn, Willie WF 10 Ar/Ky/Ar, Robert
            WM 8 Ar/Ky/Ar, John WM 5 Ar/Ky/Ar, George WM
            2 Ar/Ky/Ar. My Grandpa, Luther Bates, said
            that he thinks the wife was a Tidwell, a
            widow with two children. I haven't found any
            confirmation of this. Does anyone have a
            Tidwell who died about that time leaving a
            widow and children? I'm trying to find out
            when George arrived in Lincoln Co and where
            from.
            Thanks, Frances
