Dear Pam,

My problem is that I have so little information about my gggrandmother, Julia.

Here are the facts and family information that I have been able to ferret:

1.  Marriage to Thomas P. Goodrum on 12/28/1847 (name Julia Ann ALDRIDGE on

marriage certificate).

2.  1850 Census - Northern Division of DeSoto County, Mississippi - October

23, 1850

Dwelling/Family No. 613:

Thomas Goodrum, 61, M, Farmer, b. SC, can't read or write

J            "        , 28, F, b. Ala, can't read or write

A           "        , 2, F, b. Miss

J            "        , 6/12, M, b. Miss

 

3.  Thomas and "Julie" had the following children who lived to adulthood.

Mary Angelina (called "Angie) b. 1849

Thomas Joseph, b. September 17, 1851  (my great grandfather)

Melveet Dockery (called "Mel") female, b. 1855

Julia Catherine, b. July 1856

4.  The Goodrum families migrated to Texas in 1851, shortly after the birth of

my great grandfather.  They lived in a portion of Grimes County which was

later to become a portion of Waller County.

5.  Julia Ann Aldridge Goodrum died in August or September of 1856.  Her

husband, Thomas, died in 1863 from disease contracted while serving in Civil

War with the 21st Texas Calvary, CSA.

6.  Family legend is that Julia was a member of the same church (Concord

Baptist Church in Washington-on-the-Brazos) attended by Sam Houston and is

buried in the church cemetery, possibly along with a child.  (This could be

the male child on the 1850 census who was less than a year old.)

7.  My great grandfather told my aunt that his grandfather's name was Tom

Aldridge and that his Uncle Tom Aldridge (Julia's brother) had moved from

Mississippi to Arkansas.

 

Pam, this is all I have on my Aldridges.  The area in Mississippi where they lived is just south of Memphis along the Mississippi River.  The Goodrums were active in the Masonic Lodge and there was once a Goodrum's Church in Desoto County, according to some information published by the local Genealogical

Society.  I found some information about some Aldridges in DeSoto County, but no "Thomas."  Thanks for keeping an eye out for my Julia.  Although she didn't live very long, she obviously was a tremendous influence on her family—some very fine Christian people followed her.

Hi Pam,

Llandpa@aol.com was my email addy before I changed servers.  Your hypothesis is very interesting -- I think I've mentioned that my Goodrum ancestors also lived in Fairfield County, SC -- the old Camden

District.  However, the Goodrums moved to the Mississippi Territory prior to 1811 -- first to Jefferson County, then they were in Yalobusha County on 1830 and 1840 censuses and Desoto County in 1850

just prior to their move to Texas.  Interestingly, the eldest Goodrum son settled in Milam County, TX, (???his cousin was Moses Arledge???) while the others went to Grimes County.  One of my cousins who has researched the Goodrum family for years says they were very tribal -- always moved together.  Thanks for your thoughts.  Unfortunately, the Goodrums didn't leave a very good paper trail.

Best regards,

Pat

Notes for JAMES ARLEDGE:

1820 Fairfield Co, SC census puts his age at 18-26 [149 ALDRIDGE, James (000100-00100)]

 

1830 Fairfield Co SC census: 364 James Arledge 1 1 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 // 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 // 3 male slaves 3 female slaves

 

males: 1 under 5, 1 5-10, one 20-30, one 40-50 [who is this??]; females: one under 5, one 30-40. Who would the extra man in the household be??

 

He died between 1830-1840. His widow Elizabeth is listed as HOH in 1840 census.

 

Perhaps he died in service. JAMES ALDREGE was listed among a roster of Privates in the Fairfield militia mustered as an independent mounted militia from Winnsboro in the Seminole Wars. Muster Roll of Capt. Daniel Smith's company of SC mounted militia mustered into service 17 February 1836 for 3 months. Did he die during this time?

 

James's death preceded his father's, since he was described in his father's 1847 will as deceased.

 

Graham Louer speculates that this James married a cousin, Elizabeth Arledge, daughter of WIlliam and Mary.

11.  SAMUEL8 ARLEDGE (MOSES7, WILLIAM6, JOHN5, WILLIAM4 ALDRIDGE, CLEMENT3, CLEMENT2, JOHN ALDRICH/1) was born Bet. 1797 - 1798 in Fairfield Co, SC (HOH 1820 census Fairfield Co, SC 18-26 w/wife & 2 daus); to DeKalb Co GA HOH 1830 census, HOH 1840 Humphries Dist, Harris Co, GA as ALDRIDGE, then to AL aft 1846;  as ARLEGE HOH 1850 Coosa Co AL;  HOH 1860 Marion Co TN.  He married MARY/ MOLLY ???.  She was born Bet. 1799 - 1809 in SC; HOH 1860 Coosa Co, AL (Mt. Olive, Adkins P.O.) census as ARLDRIDGE (she stayed while he went to TN); 1870 Coosa Co AL living with daughter "S. B. Roberson" as ALDRIDGE, and died Aft. 1870.

 

Notes for SAMUEL ARLEDGE:

1820 Fairfield CO SC census: 152 ALDRIDGE, Samuel (000100-20100)

 

Named as Moses' son in court case. 1820-1828: involved in a Fairfield court case, an extended legal case of John Woodward vs Moses Arledge (Fairfield County), in which Moses is described as an aged man, 55 years old: "the said Moses is now advanced in life and has no visible property known to your Orator of any value save the land lived on by the Sheriff aforesaid." Names Samuel as the son of Moses, and says Moses has seven children. Case: Winnsboro Bill 7, 1828: MOSES ARLEDGE, SAMUEL ARLEDGE, William Strother and John Buchanan VS. Thomas McCullough.

 

1830 GA, DeKalb County (between John Roberson and Hughes):

 

ARLEDGE, Samuel

1 male under 5

2 males 5-10

1 male 20-30 (probably a brother)

1 male 30-40 (Samuel)

3 females under 5

1 female 5-10

1 female 10-15

1 female 20-30 (wife)

 

1840 Humphries Dist, Harris Co, GA: Samuel ALDRIDGE (between Hornsby and Basemon):

males: 2 (under 5)-4 (5-10)-5 (10-15)-1 (15-20)-0-1(30-40)

females: 2 (under 5)-0-0-0-1 (20-30)-1 (30-40)

Slaves: one female under 10, one female 10-24

 

Looks like Samuel and Molly were in GA until at least 1845, based on locations of children's births. A William Arledge (wife Milly), who was probably Samuel's brother, seems to have migrated along with them. By the 1850 census this brother William was head of household in Tallapoosa Co, AL (as ALDRAGGE), while Samuel was in nearby Coosa County. William and his family were in Coosa County by 1860 and thereafter.

 

1850 Alabama census for Coosa County (Coosa District #594/594):

 

ARLEGE  Samuel  53      M       SC      Farmer  $250

                Moley   51      F       SC              (can't read or write)

                Nicholas        20      M       GA

                Joseph  17      M       GA

                Thomas  17      M       GA

                James   12      M       GA

                A. Jackson      11      M       GA

                Emily   9       F       GA

                Sarah   7       F       GA

                Jasper  5       M       GA

 

By 1860, it appears that Samuel and Molly have separated; he has gone to Marion County, TN, where several of his sons (James, Jack, and a son with unknown name who left a widow named Mary and three children by the 1880 Marion County census) have gone to farm and work in the coal mines. Molly has remained in Coosa Co, AL, where she is listed as head of household in 1860 and living with daughter Cynthia Roberson in 1870. Children Cynthia (Robertson), Samuel, Nicholas, Joseph, Thomas J. Emily (Hamilton), Sarah (Gray) and the widows of two other sons apparently settled in the Coosa and Chilton County area of Alabama.

 

In 1860 Samuel is heading a household in Marion Co, TN with son James and his wife Sarah and their children.

Here are Alabama 1860 census records for some others in the family:

Samuel's brother:

[maiden name ARLEDGE] Robertson 41 [widow of Albert] and family

 

I believe this is his son Samuel's record, but more research is needed:

Notes for JAMES ARLEDGE:

1820 Fairfield Co, SC census puts his age at 18-26 [149 ALDRIDGE, James (000100-00100)]

 

1830 Fairfield Co SC census: 364 James Arledge 1 1 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 // 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 // 3 male slaves 3 female slaves

 

males: 1 under 5, 1 5-10, one 20-30, one 40-50 [who is this??]; females: one under 5, one 30-40. Who would the extra man in the household be??

 

He died between 1830-1840. His widow Elizabeth is listed as HOH in 1840 census.

 

Perhaps he died in service. JAMES ALDREGE was listed among a roster of Privates in the Fairfield militia mustered as an independent mounted militia from Winnsboro in the Seminole Wars. Muster Roll of Capt. Daniel Smith's company of SC mounted militia mustered into service 17 February 1836 for 3 months. Did he die during this time?

 

James's death preceded his father's, since he was described in his father's 1847 will as deceased.

 

Graham Louer speculates that this James married a cousin, Elizabeth Arledge, daughter of WIlliam and Mary.

From James Green: Bessie B. Richardson Notes:

Victor Broom may have died 1835. Victor Broom's Will settlement shows wife's name and states son James Alexander Broom did not reside in South Carolina in 24 Aug 1835.  Will may have been dated 18 Jul 1842.

 

Notes for VICTOR BROOM:

Bessie B. Richardson Notes:  May have died 1835

         Will settlement shows wife's name and states son James Alexander Broom

         did not reside in South Carolina in 24 Aug 1835.  Will may have been

         dated 18 Jul 1842.

 

Notes for TILLMAN FORD ARLEDGE:

There were evidently two cousins named Tilman F. Arledge born in Fairfield Co, SC during the same time frame. One went to TN (the son of Clement and Martha Guinn/Ginn Arledge), while the other (the son of William and Sarah Ford Arledge) ended up in Arkansas. One of them stopped in Alabama along the way. Trying to sort out which records are for which Tilman is difficult.

 

In 1837, one of them was in Choctaw Co, AL

 

Where in 1840 census?

 

In 1842 in Franklin Co, TN a Tilman (probably Clement's son) married wife Martha Green

 

In 1850 & 1860 another Tilman is in Poinsett Co, AR with wife Emelina; census records show children starting 1845 born in Arkansas

 

_____________________________

Which Tilman is this? I believe it is Tilman Ford Arledge, son of William and Sarah Ford Arledge:

The William G. and Tilman F. Arledges who went to Arkansas were brothers--sons of William Arledge and Sarah Ford of Fairfield Co, SC, according to Graham Louer. Apparently, according to Louer, this Tilman F. Arledge first married his cousin Lydia Arledge, sister of Austin D. Arledge. This would explain the connection to Austin D. in Arkansas (see below).

[The William aged 23 above would be Tilman's son by his first marriage to Lydia Arledge]

____________________

 

I would hazard to guess that the following Tilman F. Arledge is the son of William and Sarah Ford Arledge, since his mother Sarah remarried Frederick Bailey after William's death:

 

Fairfield Co, SC: 1830 deed between Tilman F. Arledge of Fairfield District and Frederick Bailey: Tilman Arledge in consideration of $200 conveys to Bailey one half of the certain tract of land bought in copartnership by myself TF Arledge and James Arledge from Osborn Jefferies containing one hundred acres… south by the road leaving from Mickle's Ferry to Columbia west by land belonging to Thomas Muse Deceased, east by the road leading from Winnsborough to Camden dated 21 Jan 1830 wit. Philip H. Pickett, William L. Sepechey (?), Thomas B. Lumpkin

 

BUT which Tilman F. is named in the following? I belive it is also Tilman Ford Arledge, son of William and Sarah, since the census records above indicate that his son, William, by his first wife Lydia Arledge, was born in Alabama--and there is no evidence that the other Tilman Arledge whose family went directly to Tennessee ever spent time in Alabama:

 

19 May 1836 Sumter Co, AL deed between Robert Pogue of Sumter Co and T. F. Arledge of the same state and county. Pogue, in consideration of $1000 paid by T. F. Arledge does convey a tract of land lying in Sumter County, AL, 80 acres.

 

Therefore, the Tilmans in all the Alabama records would be the same Tilman Ford Arledge.

From:         Clay Fulcher <mtngoat@flash.net>

 

There is a long entry in this book, Fairfield County Family Histories, about the Broom family. Gosh I'll have to copy it because it's too much to transcribe right now. The connections are

 

Luke A. Broom married Charlotte Arledge. Luke A. Broom was the son of William Broom, b. 1753. William is buried in Fairfield County, 3/10 mile south of intersection of US 321 and Road 30, 50 yards west of US 321.

 

Another connection to the Broom family is through Victor Broom who married Lydia Arledge. Victor Broom was the son of John Broom. John was the brother of William above.

 

Notes for LUCAS A. BROOM:

The entire Broom line was graciously provided by James W. Green III of Winnsboro SC jwgreeniii@juno.com.

 

1850 Census lists Luke age 45 so he's born about 1805.  Wife age

42 b.  ca. 1808.  The ages of Mary, Phillip, and George can be deduced

from same census.

See notes on Luke's son Philip C. Broom (221) for 1860 census of

Luke, his wife Charlotte, & their daughter? L.A., & son P.C.

Notes for MARY ANN OR J. OR MANERVA STONE:

Subject: Re: Stone-Arledge

Date: Sun, 6 Jun 2004 From: "Joseph Stone" <genesisstone@msn.com>

 

Pam,

 

William Stone's final estate settlement is found in Talladega Co. AL Probate Minutes Vol. C, page 282-286.  In the final estate settlement it mentions A. D. Aldridge at one point.  Then on page 285 it states

"...Manerva Aldridge late Minerva Stone wife of Austin Aldridge residence not known..."  Also, in his Will it lists Manerva Aldridge.  Actually, the handwriting of the Will is very poor  It could read as Mariana and we originally thought so.  You will have to check it out.

 

The 1817 birth date of Mary Ann follows the birth order in the Will of William Stone's children.  And it has been documented that Wiliam Stone and wife Lydia were born in SC.

 

I knew that there were Arledge families in Fairfield Co.  In fact, Arledge and Stone had financial dealings.  And both families lived in the northeast corner of the county.  I have been told that Arledge and

Aldridge have been used together for the same family.

 

Thank you for the info you sent.  Let's keep exploring this.

Arledge, Willis Arledge, N.C. Bailes VS James Arledge, William Arledge, Mary Arledge, James Broom and Susan Arledge. Winnsboro Bill 3, 1828

 

1840 census, Lowndes Co, AL (p. 247): William ARLEDGE (age 20-30), with wife aged 20-30 and son under 5. Also had huge slave holdings for such a small, young family: 9 male and seven female slaves. Male slaves were one under age 10, 4 ages 10-24 and 2 ages 24-36; while they had 1 female slave under 10, 2 ages 10-24 and 4 ages 24-36. This shows that this William Arledge had great wealth, since he had a large investment in slaves as property. Neighbors were Tatum and Irwin families; Jesse Ivy a few houses down.

William Arledge who was born abt 1818 in SC and died abt 1875 in Tx.  He had four wives but I am decended from his marriage to his fourth wife, Hanna(h).  I am interested in the ancestors of GWA.  I discussed this with Peggy Densmore who, as you know, has researched the La/Tx Arledge clan in some detail.  She is not sure about GWA's ancestors and suggested I contact you for any help you may provide.  It is my hope to trace the ancestors of GWA to Europe and establish our direct lineage as far back as possible.  Any info or guess would be appreciated.  Thank you in advance.  David Arledge  Naples, Fl

Edward Snyder <snyder@hl-pc.org> wrote in Feb. 1998:

 

So far I have been able to go back to Elijah Arledge who married ____Clary and died c 1825 in Richland Co., S.C.. There were at least two sons, William and Cullin, and several daughters. C. E. Arledge appears in the 1830 Tallahassee, Leon Cty, FL census, and Cullin E. Arledge is in the 1840 census for Jefferson Cty, FL.

 

[I would guess that, when Elijah died, Clara went to live with one of the sons, probably William initially since my gut feeling is that he was the oldest. The 1830 census for Leon Co., Florida does not show an older woman in Cullen's household, but the 1840 census for Jefferson Co., Florida shows a woman 60-70 in Cullen's household. I will be checking the various Williams in 1820 and 1830 to see if there is an older woman in a William Arledge household.]

 

Cullin married Mary Judith Breaker, daughter of Lewis F. Breaker and Martha Cantey 10/15/1826. Cullin sired Martha Burdette, Seaborne Breaker, Lewis Cullen, Mary Eliza, Emiline Clary, George X or H, and Louisa Ann. George H. Arledge was born in GA c 1836. Census of 1860 has him in Key West Florida. He joined the CS Navy from GA, served in several stations including The North Atlantic Blockading Squadron where he apparently met Hardin B. Littlepage and latter married Hardin's sister Caroline B. Littlepage c 1867. They were in King William Cty, VA in the 1870 census. They appear in Galveston, Texas in 1880 thru 1883, presumably in the cotton brokerage business. Their offspring were Virginia Littlepage, George Henry, Emily, Caroline, and Hardin. They then seem to disappear, but may have gone to Cuba with the cotton business. Caroline L. Arledge is listed as Head of Household in the 1900 Wash. D.C. Census. Caroline L. Arledge (wid of Geo H.) later appears in the 1918 Washington D.C. phone book. Emily Arledge married Warren K. Snyder (my grandfather) about 1894.

 

From Edward Snyder August 1998:

 

About 30 years ago, way before I became interested in genealogy, my aunt Caroline (Carrie) Arledge Hunt, George's daughter, (who worked for the Census Bureau as I recall) gave me a manuscript that I believe she developed titled "The Record of The Cantey Family of South Carolina". It appears to be well researched through documents and family papers at the time. I have not independently verified all the details. If only I had known then about genealogy, the brains I could have picked! I'm sure we all feel the same way! What do the Canteys have to do with the Arledges? Well, according to the manuscript, it goes like this:

 

Samuel Cantey was the younger brother of John Cantey III whose plantation was used as a supply point for Marion, The Swamp Fox, during the revolution. Samuel Cantey (d1826) married Judith Wilburn. They had five children. One of these was Martha, b March 24,____. Martha Cantey married Lewis Frederick

Breaker, on March__, 1807 at the Goose Creek (S.C.) family home. They later moved to Florida. Both died at Key West in 1842, Martha on March 25, L.F. in July. One  of their daughters was Mary Judith Breaker who was born at Goose Creek, S.C. Feb. 21, 1811. She was married to Cullen E. Arledge of Columbia,

S.C. on Oct 15, 1826 at St. James Parish, Charleston. Their children were:

 

Martha Burdette Arledge, who married a Mr. Ashpey of New Orleans

Seaborn Breaker Arledge, who died at sea

Lewis Cullen Arledge, Married 1st Miss Hattie

                              2nd Miss Mary Tilgham Ingram of S.C.

           (note: a census record lists her as Mary F. unless I misread the T)

Mary Eliza Arledge, Married Rev, Richardson (see below)

Emeline Clary Arledge, married Capt Filor of N.Y.C.

George Xerxes Arledge, married Miss Caroline Littlepage of Virginia

                (see note below)

Louisa Ann Arledge married Mr. Burton

 

(note: the name Xerxes crops up in two places so far, here and in my grandmothers death certificate from info provided, I assume, by my grandfather. All the other records use Henry as the middle name. All other info fits.)

 

Mary Eliza Arledge was born at Key West, Fla., Feb. 26, 1832 in Key West. She was married to Rev Simon Peter Richardson in Key West, Jan. 3,1847. Rev S.P. Richardson was a notable figure in the Methodist Episcopal Church of Alabama. He was born in Newberry Dist., S.C. May 13, 1818 and died in Macon, Ga June 15, 1899.

Mary J. Arledge's parents Lewis F. Breaker and Martha Cantey Breaker had moved from S.C. to Key West by 1830. They both died there in 1842. Apparently Mary J. Arledge moved to Key West from Jefferson Co., FL after 1840 and perhaps after the death of Cullin. Lewis R. Breaker would be one of Mary J.'s younger brothers. George H. Arledge appears in the 1860 Key West, FL census, age 24,  living in a rooming house.

Have recently returned from Sarasota, FL to see my first grandchild. Since the 1830 census had Cullen Arledge in Tallahasse, Leon Co., FL and in Jefferson Co., FL in 1840, I took advantage of the opportunity to stop over on the way home to see what I could find. The Leon Co. Court House there did not have any land records for him. But I did find records in the Florida State Archives. These were for both grantee and grantor conveyances of properties, both real and personal, in adjoining Jefferson Co. from Jan 1820 to 1 Jan 1934. I also found the will of Clary Arledge written and filed for probate in Jefferson Co., Florida in the spring of 1840. As you recall, Clary was Elijah’s wife and mother of Cullen and William. I will attach a transcribed copy of the will to this e-mail. Also will attach abstracts of the deeds and agreements involving Cullen. Will send copies of all of these by snail mail for your files.

 

The deeds show that Cullen was apparently living in Monticello, county seat of Jefferson Co. during most of 1830. Clary’s will leaves everything to Cullen’s children which would seem to indicate that William did not leave any off spring. Since Monticello is only about 23 miles east of Tallahasse, my wife and I decided to drive on over and see if we could find Clary’s burial spot. No luck there. A brief discussion with a lady from the local historical association revealed that a cemetery from that time frame no

longer existed, that most burials then were on private lands, that wooden markers were used, and unless

maintained by the  property owners, the burial plots could not be found. We did get a quick look at a History of Jefferson Co. There was only one Arledge listed - Mary A. Arledge was listed as donating $50 to the local Presbyterian Church in 1840. That most certainly was Mary Ann Arledge, William's wife.

From: Edward Snyder <snyder@hal-pc.org>

 

My wife and I recently completed a research trip to TN and VA. While on this I ran across the Index to Indian War Pension Files, Vol 1,  transcribed by Virgil D. White. On page 44 I found the following entry.

Arledge, Cullen E., widow Mary J., WA-3443 26 Jun 1893, served in the Florida War. I asked the National Archives for a copy of the Pension Application. The application file provides the following information:

a. Indian War Pensions are provided by the Act of July 27, 1892.

b. The pension application was made by Mary J. Arledge dated 19 January 1893, filed Jan. 26, 1893. At that time she was residing in Bainbridge, Decatur Co.,GA, age 81.

c. Cullen was commissioned by Gov. Duval of Florida in 1836 as Commander in the company commanded by Captain Cullen E. Arledge (strange wording but fits the form) for service in the Seminole Indian War of 1836 and was honorably discharged at Monticello, Florida in 1836 and died in Elbert Co.,

Georgia in October 1845, was married on 12 October 1826 in Camden, SC (I have the 15th from a newspaper report which I believe is more accurate. Note this is an 81 year old lady trying to recall dates and other info. I noticed that in the application, rarely were dates given, usually just the year). She states that she was married under the name Mary J. Braker. (have seen this spelling of the surname elsewhere)

d. Mary Judith further states that at the time he entered service he was about 5' 8'' tall, with blue eyes, black hair, light complexion, a merchant by trade, and was born in Richland Co., South Carolina

e. The document further notes that Mary J. had not previously filed for a pension or a bounty land-grand nor had Cullen.

f.  The documents states that neither had been previously married and that Cullen was not employed in the military or naval service other than as mentioned for the Seminole War and had not been employed in the military or naval serviv\ce after the discharge in 1836.

g. The documents further note that neither Capt. Arledge's Company of Florida Volunteers nor his name could be found on the rolls or in the records. Consequently the application for pension was denied.

 

There seems to be a strong GA and particularly Bainbridge, GA connection in this family which I need to try to explore further. This service in the Seminole War of 1836 would seem to provide the rationale for George Henry's birth in Knoxville, GA, i.e. Mary J. went there while Cullen was in the war. But who did she stay with?

In the 1950's my g.grandmother Loduska Catherine (Hanna) Craddock, d/o Roxanne Robertson & Drayton Hanna, wrote a letter listing her mother's parents' and silbings. She aslo added a few birth/death dates and other details. Below is some of the info from her letter. Some of the names were hard to read due to spelling and/or less than perfect handwriting, so they are written as they looked to me. If you know any of the names or can help in putting this family together at all, please contact me.

   From:         "Mary" <buddy@lcia.com>

Hi Pam,

My last name is Eaddy.My grandmother was: Mary Evie SPRAYBERRY born 14 Aug 1882 in Hollins, Clay, Al. died 11 Mar 1974 in Hollywood,Broward, Fl. She was married to John Alexander SMITH, 8 Aug 1903 in Ellisville, Jones, Ms. My grandfather was born 7 Feb 1866 in Goodwater,Coosa,Al. and died  27 May 1948 in Jacksonville, Duval, Fl. His parents were Nancy Kelley and Elijah Smith. He had another family before he married my grandmother and I have searched for years for them, no luck. That doesn't fit in with your research though.

Grandma's parents were: George Sylvester SPRAYBERRY born 10 Dec. 1856 (my baby book) my Dad says he heard George committed suicide by drinking carbolic acid. That seems a hard way to commit suicide, maybe it wasn't suicide. He married Angeline Robertson (Roberson, Robinson) 19 Nov 1878, Coosa, Al.according to "Alabama Marriages 1800-1920." They were listed as Geo. SPRAYBERRY and Angaline ROBERSON. Angeline was the daughter of Cynthia Aldridge (Arledge, Ardidge) and Albert Robertson (Robinson, Roberson). I believe them to be the same couple who was married 02 Feb 1840 in Harris Co., Ga . They are listed in "Georgia Marriages to 1850" as Cynthia Ardidge and Albert Robertson.I am not sure about his death. Barb has a date and dying in Chambers Co., Al. I haven't researched this yet. I came across an Albert (Robinson) in the 1850 Mortality Schedule in Coosa County, Alabama, Page 56, he was a married man age 36 born in Dec. in SC. who was a farmer and killed by stabbing. I have always wondered if this could be him.  My Grandmother left a small piece of paper with some names of her family and besides Roxann and Angeline she wrote the name KIPLEY. This has always been a puzzle to me. She didn't talk a lot about her past. Gave me bits and pieces. For one thing she asked me why I had named my daughter Roxann and I didn't know but I had always called my baby dolls Roxann. She said she had an Aunt named Roxann. I have not been able to find Kipley's.

Cynthia was born January 3, 1818.

Angeline -April 13th 1856

I will go ahead and send this because I got this far before and lost it. I will send you some more info later. Hope to hear from you.

Mary

Pam, thanks for your e-mail and genforum response.  I had hunch Louisa

may be connected to Samuel as he is the only Aldridge in Harris Co. in

1840.

This is all I know of Louisa:

She married Thomas Jefferson Harrington (son of Cyrus) on Dec. 15, 1841

in Harris Co. GA.  Thomas was born Aug. 12, 1823 Harris Co. and died

March 2, 1889 in Palo Pinto County, Texas.  According to Gene Pitman, a

descendant of Thomas J. Harrington through his second wife, Louisa was

admitted to the Milledgeville, GA state hospital in 1851.  Her death

certificate (which Gene has, but hasn't found to send me yet) states she

died of ulcerative colitis on May 5, 1854 in the hospital.  Thomas and

Louisa had three children together - Sofrana b. 1845, Cyrus b. 1847 and

John Allen b. December 24, 1849.  In 1850 Thomas, Sofrana and Cyrus are

living in Harris Co.  I have not found where Louisa and baby John are

(perhaps being cared for by relatives?).  After Louisa died, Thomas

remarried to Mary Henderson and had more children.

John Allen reappears on the 1860 census (Wolf's Creek, St. Clair Co. AL)

with the rest of the family.  He is now age 10. 

By 1870, they are back in Harris GA.

By 1880, John Allen Harrington has married Anna America Massey (dau. of

John J. and granddaughter of Pleasant Massey who also was born in SC and

died in Coosa Co. AL).  

 John Allen and Anna had at least 8 children, and they moved from Lee

Co. AL to Cass Co. TX where Anna died in 1903.  John Allen remarried and

had more children.

John later lived in Miller Co. AR and stayed in the Texarkana area until

his death on Jan. 5, 1936.  His daughter Hester Lee Harrington is my

husband's great grandmother.  She married George Gilbert Moulder.

I have more on their descendants, but do not know much more about

Louisa.  I look forward to reading what you have on your website.

 

Thanks again for your e-mail - please feel free to clue me in.

Hello,

I am researching the Hambleton/Hamilton and Blassengames. We think that Lewis Hamilton who married Elizabeth Arledge could possibly be a brother to Blassengame Hamilton, their parents were John Hamleton and Mary Blassengame. During some research on marriage records for AL, I found the marriage record for Lewis and Elizabeth and it stated that they were living next door to Mary Hamilton, b. in SC. If you have info to share, I would greatly appreciate it even if it is to dispel their relationship. My e-mail address is samjk@whitneytx.net

In Reply to: Samuel Aldridge Harris Co. Georgia by Leslie of 1402

 

Leslie,

I recently have been looking into the Aldridge family in Georgia and in Alabama, for several reasons. A while back I had contact with a gentleman named Gene Pitman who is also a descendant of Thomas Jefferson Harrington and Louisa Aldridge. (If you wish to contact him, I'll email you his email address. Unless he's your husband!) At that time, my interest was in the Harringtons. I believe T.J's father was Cyrus K. Harrington and I was trying to place my Sophia O. Harrington as a sister of T.J.

 

Totally separate from this research was my effort to find evidence that my Allen L. Hamilton (b1853, Coosa Co, AL)who married Louisa Lee Hornsby in 1879, Tallapoosa Co, AL, (Louisa was dau. of Sophia Harrington and Moses Hornsby)was a son of Lewis Hamilton Jr. and Mary Elizabeth Aldridge.

 

Lewis Jr. married Mary Eliz. Aldridge in Coosa Co, AL in March of 1850. Mary Eliz. was born in SC around 1825. On the 1850 census of Coosa Co, AL. she is living with her husband Lewis Jr, in Lewis' father's home, Lewis Hamilton, "Sr.". Also in the home is a 5 year old Missouri Aldridge born in GA. Missouri was born 5 years before Lewis Jr. and Mary Eliz. Aldridge married. For this reason I believe that Lewis Jr's wife, Mary Eliz. was not Aldridge by birth, but by a previous marriage to an Aldridge male in Georgia, who may have died before 1850. Also in their home is an 8 mo. old Isabella whom I believe could also be daughter of Mary Eliz. Aldridge by her first marriage. (Census enumerator wrote ditto marks under Missouri Aldridge's surname for Isabella's surname.) This I beleive also because since Lewis Hamilton Jr. and Mary E. Aldridge married in March of 1850 (marriage record is online), a legitimate child of theirs would have been born after the 1850 census date and would not be 8months old.

 

In 1860 C. of Coosa Co, AL, I find Lewis Hamilton Sr. has died. Lewis Hamilton Jr. is now head of house, and is still with wife Mary Eliz. Now they have 15 year old Missouri b. GA and 10 year old Isabella b. Ala., and others.

 

NEXT DOOR to Lewis Jr's family in 1860 Coosa Co, AL, is a widowed Mary Aldridge, age 51 (b. ca. 1808) SC. She has Thomas (28), Sarah (18) and Jasper (14) with her. All 3 born in GA.

 

My theory is that this Aldridge family living next to Lewis Hamilton Jr. in 1860 is related to Lewis's wife, and possibly that she, Mary Elizabeth, was married to a son of this Mary Aldridge, and that this son died shortly before 1850. Then Mary Elizabeth married Lewis Hamilton Jr.

 

How does this tie to your Louisa Aldridge, wife of Thomas Jefferson Harrington? Lewis Hamilton Jr's brother, Samuel W. Hamilton, married Emily Aldridge in 1855 in Coosa Co, daughter of of the widowed Mary Aldridge living next to Lewis Hamilton Jr. in 1860. Sophia Harrington, b. Harris Co, GA I believe is a sister of Thomas J. Harrington. Sophia Harrington Hornsby's daughter, Louisa Lee Hornsby, married Allen L. Hamilton in Alabama. The Harris Co, GA affiliation of the Harringtons and the Aldridges leads me to believe that the widowed Mary Aldridge b. ca. 1808 in Coosa Co, in 1860 could be the widow of Samuel Aldridge. It would make sense that their daughter could be Louisa who married T. J. Harrington and T.J.'s sister Sophia married Moses Hornsby. Their daughter Louisa Hornsby (coincidence?) married Allen Hamilton who MAY have been a son of Lewis Hamilton Jr. and Mary Elizabeth Aldridge in Coosa Co.

 

Sorry if this is all so confusing, and for repeating myself so much. I just want to bring out some ideas here. I have been unable to find any Aldridge family in Coosa Co. in 1850, which leads me to believe that Mary Aldridge (b. ca. 1808, SC) came to Alabama between 1850 and 1855 which is when her daughter Emily married Samuel W. Hamilton in Coosa.

 

One more thought, there is a Marion Co, GA marriage record of a Clark Aldredge to a Mary Rollins in 1831. Don't know how far Marion Co is from Harris Co, but for a time I thought this Mary Rollins could be the widowed Mary Aldridge in the 1860 Coosa Co census next to Lewis Hamilton Jr. Recall this Mary Aldridge had a 28 yr old son Thomas on the 1860 coosa census, so he was born ca. 1832. Right in line with parents who married in 1831. Problem with this theory is that if Thomas was her oldest son, that doesn't leave too good a possibility that any other of her sons would be first husband of Mary Elizabeth Aldridge who was born ca. 1825.

 

I hope all this generates some more thinking and attracts some attention!

     

Children of MARY ARLEDGE and LEWIS HAMILTON are:

              i.   MISSOURI ARLEDGE10 HAMILTON, b. 1845, GA (listed as Aldridge in 1850 census, Hamilton in 1860).

Hello Pam!

Good to hear from you (again!)  I had your email address in my address

book, categorized as "Aldridge researcher" you had provided me some good

input a while back.  Since the time of my posting that you responded to,

I have found what I believe to be the "missing link" which ties the

Samuel Aldridge/Arledge family to the Mary Elizabeth Aldridge who

married Lewis Hamilton Jr.  This missing link also upholds the

widespread belief that the mother of Allen Hamilton was a Miss Roberson.

 

Actually, I believe we may have exchanged emails when I found this, and

entered it into my notes:

from http://www.oocities.org/wilson_pam/wmkershaw.html

Children of MOSES ARLEDGE and HULDAH ??? are:

 i. DAUGHTER [OF MOSES]8 ARLEDGE, b. Bet. 1790 - 1800.

ii. SAMUEL ARLEDGE, b. Bet. 1797 - 1798, Fairfield Co, SC (HOH 1820

census FFairfield Co, SC 18-26 w/wife & 2 daus); to DeKalb Co GA HOH

1830 census, then to AL aft 1846;  as ARLEGE HOH 1850 Coosa Co AL;  HOH

1860 Marion Co TN; d. Aft. 1860, Prob. Shelby Co, AL: probate files for

Samuel Arledge listed there in 1863-1871.

 

I must credit you for my finding my "missing link."  From the info you

provided, I went a long time focusing on the censuses, except for the

1830 DeKalb census.  As you know, the way to satisfy both my theory and

the death certificate of Allen Hamilton which showed his mother was Miss

Roberson was to figure out a way that Mary Eliz. Aldridge Hamilton could

have married an Aldridge and been a Roberson by birth.

 

As I imagine most genealogists do, I needed to find a Roberson family

near the Samuel Aldridge family somewhere, since neighbors often marry

neighbors.  It's the 1830 DeKalb census.  Right next to Samuel is a John

Robason.

 

Here's an email I sent to my Hamilton family contacts when I found this:

 

Today we have acheived what I believe is a very important piece of the

Hamilton puzzle.  As many of you know, I have this theory about

Allen L. Hamilton being Isom A. Hamilton.  Many of you have seen my web

page showing why I believe this.

http://www.members.aol.com/_ht_a/perleomacesc/hamilton.htm

 

REFRESHER ON MY THEORY

Census records show Isom A. Hamilton born ca. 1852 in Alabama, very

likely Coosa Co since his parents were there in 1850, whereas Allen

Hamilton was born Nov. 12, 1853 in Coosa Co.  Allen's death certificate

shows his father as "M.Hamilton" and his mother as "Miss Roberson." 

Info provided by Allen's son, Grover Cleveland Hamilton.

 

 Isom A. Hamilton is easily found on the 1860 and 1870 censuses of Coosa

Co, Ala. in his parents' home, then vanishes.  My theory also states

that on the 1880 Census, I believe Allen and wife Louisa are in

Tallapoosa Co, Eufala,  just a stone's throw from Louisa's father Moses

Marion Hornsby.  Allen and Louisa are disguised as "Ed Hamilton" and

"Lillia L." who are age 26 and 16, the same ages that Allen and wife

Louisa Lee Hornsby would be.  "Ed" Hamilton and "Lillia L." have a

"daughter" on the census, named "Susan E." whose birth date can be

calculated to be exactly Jan. 1, 1880, which happens to be the day after

Allen and Louisa's son Sidney Irving was born.  The 1900 census is the

first one we find Allen and Louisa on, they are 10 years apart in age,

46 and 36.

 

Isom A. Hamilton's parents were clearly Lewis Hamilton "Jr." and Mary

Elizabeth Aldridge (often spelled Arlege, Arldridge, Aldrige and

Arledge).  (I use "Jr." to distinguish Lewis from his father, also named

Lewis.)  I have always suspected that Allen did not want to be known as

Isom and at some point began using Allen and possibly adopted the "L"

which could be for "Lewis."  I suspect that this may have occurred at

some time possibly around his marriage in 1879, or 1880 when he appears

as "Ed".

 

One of the most important clues which hold up this theory are the

memoirs by Vander T. Hamilton, son of Vanderbilt Hamilton who was a son

of Allen Hamilton.  In emails I received from Vander's daughter, some

months ago, Vander wrote that he remembers seeing a brother of Allen's,

whose name was Sam.  Isom A. Hamilton had a brother named Samuel Lewis

Hamilton, who appears on 3 censuses in the Lewis Hamilton household in

1860 and 1870 and then in his own household in 1880 with his wife, Sarah

McKay.

 

Getting closer to the big news...

On the 1850 Census of Coosa Co, Isom's parents Lewis Hamilton "Jr." and

wife Elizabeth are living with Lewis' parents, Lewis Hamilton "Sr." and

Mary.  Lewis Sr. was born in Virginia circa 1783.  I have done some

Virginia colonial research and find some evidence of a "SCOTCH - IRISH"

connection, as Vander's memoirs of Allen also state.  But this is not

the news.

 

As you may recall, this 1850 census clearly shows the two youngest

children in the home, Missouri Aldridge and Isabelle Aldridge.  This had

lead me to conclude that Lewis Hamilton Jr's wife, Mary Elizabeth, was

an Aldridge by a previous marriage to an Aldridge.  This left the window

open for her to still be a Roberson by birth.  (Lewis Hamilton Jr. and

Mary Eliz. Aldridge married Mar-24-1850 in Coosa Co)

 

Next door to Lewis Jr. and family on the 1860 census, is Mary Aldridge

and several children.  I concluded that this was the mother of the

Aldridge man that Lewis Jr's wife Mary Elizabeth was first married to. 

Aldridge researchers have pointed out to me that Mary Aldridge's husband

was Samuel Aldridge (early records spell it Arlege or Arledge).  They

say that Samuel had gone to Tennessee in 1860 and that's the reason why

his wife, Mary, is listed as head of house in Coosa Co, AL in 1860.

 

Some researchers list Lewis Hamilton Jr's wife, Mary Elizabeth Aldridge,

as a daughter of Samuel and Mary Aldridge/Arledge.  But I am fully

convinced that Mary Elizabeth was their daughter-in-law, and that the

son of Samuel that she was married to, whom I shall refer to as Mr.

Aldridge, died before 1850 but after his daughters Missouri and Isabelle

were born (1844 & 1849), or possibly he died just before Isabelle was

born.  All of Samuel Arledge's children on the 1850 census of Coosa show

they were born in Georgia.  It is apparent to me, that Mary Elizabeth

married Samuel's son, Mr. Aldridge in Georgia.

 

 From an Arledge researcher, I had found this quite some time ago, it's

part of Samuel Arledge's census ancestry.  On the 1850 Census of Coosa

Co, he's Samuel Arlege age 53, with wife Mary age 51 and 8

children. (Keep in mind that my theory states that the son of Samuel

that Mary E. married had already died by 1850, so he's not listed here

in 1850).   Samuel should be 43 in 1840 and 33 in 1830.

 

from http://www.oocities.org/wilson_pam/wmkershaw.html

 

SAMUEL ARLEDGE, b. Bet. 1797 - 1798, Fairfield Co, SC (1820 census

Fairfield Co, SC age group 18-26 w/wife & 2 daus); to DeKalb Co GA  1830

census age group 30 to 40, then to AL aft 1846;  as ARLEGE 1850 Coosa Co

AL age 53; 1860 Marion Co TN; d. Aft. 1860, Prob. Shelby Co, AL: probate

files for Samuel Arledge listed there in 1863-1871.

 

The above is a listing of the censuses Samuel appears on.  I've always

wondered where he was in 1840, and I believe he is the Samuel Aldridge

in Harris County, GA.  Coincidentally living next to Leonard Hornsby,

the grandfather of Louisa Lee Hornsby Hamilton.  The only problem with

this 1840 census is that Samuel and I assume his wife are both listed as

age 30 to 40.  They should be age 40 to 50.  But the census record shows

a very large family, which is consistent with Samuel's other censuses. 

Also, there is one female in the age 20 to 30 group.  This is

significant because if we assume the oldest female in Samuel's 1840 home

is his wife, in the age 30 to 40 group, it would be unlikely that they

had a daughter in the age 20 to 30 group.  This will make more sense

later, suffice to say that Samuel's wife should be age 41 in 1840.

 

For the longest time, I've tried to track Samuel Aldridge back in time,

hoping to find a Roberson tagging along somewhere around him.  Hope no more!

 

 

This is a portion of Samuel's 1830 DeKalb County census listing, as

mentioned in the above census trackings of Samuel.  Note his neighbor,

John Robason.  Could be misspelling of Robeson, a valid surname, or

Roberson.

The full census record is attached to this email.  I've pieced the top

of the census page to the bottom of the page, so you can see the age

group column headings more easily.  What is important to note is that

John Robason has 4 females in his household, one under 5, one 5 to under

10, one 10 to under 15, and one 30 to under 40 (should be his wife.)

 

This at least shows the Samuel Arledge was well familiar with a Robison

family and this leads to the possibility that he had a child who married

the child of a neighbor.

 

I have that Mary Elizabeth Aldridge, wife of Lewis Hamilton Jr, was born

ca. 1825 according to her censuses.  In 1830, she would be 4 or 5 years

old, so she could be one of the two of the youngest females in John

Robason's 1830 home.

 

Next door, Samuel Arledge has one male under 5, two males age 5 to under

10, one male age 20 to under 30, and the oldest we assume is Sam, age 30

to under 40.  Note that if we use Samuel's expected age of 53 in 1850,

he would have been 33 in 1830.  Not likely that the male age 20 to under

30 was his son, could have been a brother.  But besides that, note that

Samuel had two males age 5 to under 10, and one under 5, any one of the

3 could have been Mary Elizabeth Robason's future husband.

 

The oldest son of Samuel Arledge that we find in Coosa Co, in their 1850

home, is Nicholas, who is age 20.  This would calculate to a circa 1829

birth year and possibly account for one of the three sons of Samuel on

the 1830 census.  This leaves two sons of Samuel unaccounted for, and

prime candidates to have been the husband of Mary Elizabeth Robason,

 

My reference to the 1840 census, where there was a female in the home

too old to have been Samuel's daughter (age 20 to 30) as compared to

Samuel's wife's age shown on that census (age 30 to 40 and should have

been 41)  Note that the female in 1830 who was age 15 to 20 would be age

20 to 30 in 1840, which is consistent with the 1840 Harris Co, GA census

record.    That's why I believe the Samuel Aldredge in Harris Co, GA in

1840 is the same one who was in DeKalb in 1830 and in Coosa Co, AL in 1850.

 

John Robason is not around Samuel Arledge in 1840 in Harris County.  But

there are several John Robeson, Robison and Robersons in Georgia in

1840, in other counties.  I will investigate these later by finding the

proximity of these counties to DeKalb and Harris Counties.  Also, I

intend to search for all Robason/Robeson/Robison/Roberson families in

DeKalb and Harris Counties, in an attempt to find the son of John who

married Mary E. Aldridge.  I doubt that I will find him, mainly because

of the birth date of Missouri Aldridge being ca. 1844, I think that Mary

Eliz. married Mr. Aldridge some time around 1843.  This would mean that

in 1840, he'd probably still be listed in his father's household.

 

I would think that if Mr. Aldridge was still with his parents in 1840,

the Samuel in Harris Co, that Mar Eliz. Robason would not be too far

away with her parents.

 

So, Pam, what do you think?  Do you have any new info which would show

Samuel had a son who died bef. 1850, maybe around 1844?

5th Alabama Infantry Regiment

 

The Fifth Alabama Infantry was organized at Montgomery, 5 May 1861, with recruits from the counties of Barbour, Clarke, Dallas, Greene, Lowndes, Monroe, Pickens, Sumter, and Talladega. It moved to  Pensacola and a few days after, it proceeded to Virginia and took post near Manassas Junction in the brigade of General Richard Ewell. It was in the skirmish at Farr's Cross Roads and was on the field (but not engaged) at 1st Manassas. It remained in the vicinity of Manassas during the fall and winter, and General Robert E. Rodes became the brigade commander in October -- the 6th and 12th Alabama, and 12th Mississippi being the other regiments in the brigade. Moving with the army to Yorktown in March 1862, it there reenlisted and reorganized. It was under fire at Yorktown and was on the field at Williamsburg. At Seven Pines, the regiment engaged for the first time, losing 27 k and 128 w our of 660 men present. The 5th was hotly engaged at Cold Harbor and Malvern Hill, losing 15 k and 58 w. It was not at 2nd Manassas but moved into Maryland and fought at Boonsboro and Sharpsburg, losing 11 k and 39 w. It was in line of battle on the crest and witnessed Union General Ambrose Burnside's repulse at Fredericksburg. At Chancellorsville, where its flag was captured by members of the 111th Pennsylvania Regiment, it was in the line under General Rodes that swept everything before it (but lost 24 k, 133 w, and 121 missing). It moved into Maryland and Pennsylvania in the Gettysburg campaign, and its loss was severe in that battle (60% casualties among 317 present). Having wintered at Orange Court House, the 5th, now reduced to a skeleton, participated in the battles of The Wilderness and Spotsylvania without severe loss. It took part in the subsequent operations as the lines began to be drawn around Petersburg, losing slightly at 2nd Cold

Harbor. It went with General Jubal Early into the Valley and across the Potomac, taking part in numerous engagements with the enemy and losing severely at Winchester. It soon after took its place in the trenches of Petersburg and wintered there. Only 4 officers and 53 men were at the final surrender at Appomattox, under Capt. T. J. Riley. Of 1719 names on the rolls, nearly 300 died in battle; 240 others died in the service, and 507 were discharged or transferred.

I attended an Arledge/Aldrich Reunion in Montevallo, AL last year and someone brought a copy of your Arledge Family History Project and I was wondering if my Arledge family and your Arledge family are connected.  My great great grandfather was Thomas Arledge, b. about 1833 in GA. , married Martha Hill b. 1843 , TN.  He died from exposure during the Civil War.  They had 9 children, Joseph Marion, John Lloyd, Jim, Mosourri, Mattie, Molly [my great grandmother], Milannie, Mary, and Sally.

 Thomas Arledge is the earliest that I have on this family.  Can you help me?

Jesse was my great grandfather. In the 1880 Elmore Co. census Jesse & Sarah list 4 children:

William 15

Thomas 12 my grandfather

Mary 10

Ida 3

They both were listed as born in AL. Jesse age 40, Sarah age 34.

I did get a copy of there marriage license, but Sarah's parents were not listed.

I've had no luck finding either of them in the 1900 census.

Jesse's parents were William M. Gray & Caroline Burton.

Notes for MARY ANN ARLEDGE:

11 May 2002   

From:  Ann Terry     <mikenann@camden.net>

 

I think your Mary Ann Arledge matches a Mary Ann in my family.  We have one married to Wyatt Hornsby who was killed in the Civil War around 1864.  They had two sons, Joseph Ransom Hornsby (b.10/19/1861 - d.6/301935) and Samuel W. Hornsby (b.6/14/1864 - d.12/15/1942).  I have no birth date for Wyatt and according to civil war records, he was killed at the Battle of the Wilderness in 1864.  Mary Ann later married Isaac Owens according to family history.  There is a grave at Flint Hill Baptist Church near Camden, SC for Mary Ann Owens, 1831- 1913.  It is placed in a plot with a Susan Arledge (1829- 1912) and Billy E. Arledge(Age 74).   I have not found a grave for Isaac Owens, but have only recently been certain of his name.  Wyatt and Mary Ann were my g-g-grandparents.

Thomas W. Arledge in Clarendon, SC Census

Posted by: Linda           ladybug35_1968@yahoo.com

Date: January 07, 2005 at 06:16:35

     

 

I am seeking information that may be connected to Thomas W. Arledge found in the 1860 Census of Clarendon County, SC.

T.W. Arledge age 25; Ann C. age 22; and Elizabeth S. age 55.

They are living next door to Lazarus Bell family.

By 1870 Thomas is no longer listed, however I find a Martha Arledge age 28 head of household with children- Ann age 10; Alice age 7; and Joseph age 3. Also living with them is a Mazappha Bell age 74.

 

Thomas' first wife is found buried at the Manning Cemetery in Manning. Mrs. Anna C. Arledge d. 4 June 1860 age 22 yrs.

I would assum that she may have died after the birth of their daughter Ann who is age 10 in 1870. Making Martha her step-mother. Also that Thomas may have died sometime after the birth of their son Joseph (abt 1867) and before the 1870 census.

 

My information leads me to believe that Thomas' 2nd wife may have been Martha 'Sarah' daughter of Lazarus Bell living next door to them in 1860. Sarah was age 18 at the time and would have been abt. 28 in 1870. Also if I am correct the Mazappha Bell listed living in her household in 1870 would have been her grandmother.

 

I have found that Thomas Arledge also had a sister who was living in the Clarendon area. Harriet L. Arledge who married Alfred Setzler born in NC. They are listed as well in the 1860 census of Clarendon. One of Alfred and Harriet's daughters, Mary E. Setzler Frazier is also buried at Manning Cemetery. She was wife of Dr. William R. Frazier.

 

If anyone can help me with information on this possible Arledge and Bell connection please contact me. Any information at all will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I do not have a lot on Mr. Arledge. My Great-grandmother Georgiann Wilkerson Bass married him in 1907 after his and her spouces had died. They raised each others' children and as far as I know had no children together. Folks around here (I live in Magnolia, Columbia County, Arkansas) always called them "Aldridge"  but my Mother had told me it was Arledge and the tombstones read Arledge. I never knew any of them but my Mother did as Georgiann was her Grandmother Bass (first marriage).

Martha is my great-great grandmother.  Martha was born about Mar 1827 in Montgomery County, Alabama according to the 1840 Louisiana census.  In the 1850 census she was in Key West, Florida and married Joseph Henry Ashbey that year.  They settled shortly thereafter in New Orleans.

Can anyone help me find her Arledge family?

My GGGrandmother was Mary Eliza Arledge.I just happened on your home page as I was doing some

web-research on Simon Peter Richardson. I am delighted to see all you have done. Thank-you! I noticed you do not list all the children for Mary Eliza and Simon Peter. Let me know if you would like to have them and I will e-mail. Also I have some exerpts and family letters describing Cullen Arledge and his family; also a  picture of Mary Eliza with her daughter Florence Richardson Ball and Daughter-in-law, Emma Sykes Richardson. It seems Mary Eliza was very interested in family history as some of the letters I have are responses to letters written by her to other family members regarding the family lineage. I did not know either Mary Eliza or Emma Sykes. My grandmother, Mary Emma Richardson Welch was the daughter of George Richardson and Emma Sykes Richardson. George and Emma began married life in Louisille. Ms. George was a lawyer. I see from your files that many Arledges were in Louisville around then. That solves a part of the puzzle for me. They moved to Macon, Ms sometime around 1900. They had four children, a son and three daughters, one daughter died as an infant.

 

I can supply the details on the children of Mary Eliza and SP Richardson and the George/Emma line. My husband and I live in Alpharetta, Ga.

JULIUS C. RICHARDSON is one of Alabama's younger men who have attained distinction at the bar and in the field of politics. He is the son of Rev. Simon Peter and Mary E. (Arledge) Richardson. His  father was a noted Baptist preacher in his time, well known throughout the south for his  uncompromizing attitude toward "the flesh and the devil." The island of Key West, Fla., was the place

where Julius C. Richardson first saw the light, the time being on the 18th of April, 1851. Coming to Alabama when a young man, Mr. Richardson was educated at the A. & M. college at Auburn, Ala., at Summerfield institute, and at the Southern university, at Greensboro. At this point it became necessary to supply himself with some of the sinews of war before he could prepare for his chosen profession, and the school-room, that stepping stone to future greatness, and the poor young man's treasury where he may honorably replenish his exhausted exchequer, found in him an earnest and successful teacher. In 1872 he became a matriculate of the law department of the Cumberland university, Lebanon, Tenn.,taking the bachelor's degree there the following year. After prospecting some little, in January, 1874, he selected Greenville as a location and immediately entered upon a successful career, though he had for his associates such talented lawyers as Hilary A. Herbert, Judge John K. Henry, Thos. J. Judge, and others not less renowned, and at this time (1892) he is the acknowledged leader of a bar made illustrious by the names of Watts, Crenshaw, Porter and Lomax. His success is due to a keen perception of right, the ability to sift a case thoroughly, selecting its strongest points, and a tenacity of purpose which stops not short of a favorable decision. Mr. Richardson's reputation at the bar soon brought hin the offer of political honors, but he could not be prevailed upon to accept until a vacancy occurred in the state senate in 1886, caused by the death of Judge John K. Henry. Mr. Richardson was selected to fill out the unexpired term. Of this selection the Montgomery Advertiser said: "He is a source of pride and pleasure to his friends, throughout the state. As a public man he has always been upright, honest and true, and his ability to fill, the honorable position to which he has been called by the people of his district is unquestioned and unquestionable." During the session he proved himself thoroughly alive to the interests of his district, and as a member of the joint committee of the house and senate on the revision of the code of Alabama rendered much valuable service by his entire familiarity with the subject in all its intricate details. In writing of him at this time, a biographer remarks that "no man of his age has been more successful. He has the quickest and acutest perception, and is possessed of a mind thoroughly trained and organized for the law, which he loves for its own sake. He is a brilliant  conversationalist, an extensive miscellaneous reader, an eloquent speaker and writer, and possesses

great dignity of character." In literature Mr. Richardson is an acknowledged connoisseur. At his office he has one of the finest and most complete law libraries in the state. At his house he duplicates this, and adds all the best authors to be found in the field of good books. In November of 1874, Mr. Richardson was married to Miss Bettie M. one of Greenville's worthy and accomplished young ladies, the daughter of D. T. McCall Esq., a representative of an old and highly respected family of Butler. Two children were born to the union - Terry M. and Mack. In 1891, the wife and mother entered upon that life in whose pleasures we may not participate till the "golden thread be broken." Mrs. R. was a member of the Methodist Episcopal church, and is remembered as an earnest christian woman, whose delight was charity, and whose devotion to home, husband and children was of that type which secures a place in the memory of all with whom she came in contact.
