Macedonia Baptist Church

RichardWhite44 — 20 Jan 2005 10:55:15 GMT

My 2-great grandfather John Shepard Haven and most of his family are buried at Macedonia Baptist Church. I was wondering if anyone knows if early church minutes, membership lists, and such exist and where or how to access them?

J.S.'s son (John) Henry Haven was apparently involved in reorganizing the Norton's Creek Methodist Church into Lee Methodist Church so I am aware that the whole family probably wasn't in the Macedonia Baptist Church membership but I pretty well assume that both J.S. and his wife Martha Ann Welch were... especially given the number of Welches also were interred at the Macedonia Baptist Church cemetery.

Levins/Westberry/Coleman Connection

My grandmother was Dorinda Georgiana Levins, born July 10, 1874 & married to William Richard Levins in Levy County Florida on April 8, 1896. They lived in Citrus County, Florida. My grandmother was very secretive about her past, some big secret she was ashamed of. We were always told that her maiden name was Coleman but I discovered on her marriage license she was listed as Miss Dorinda Georgiana Westberry. I can't find any connections for her with either name. Does anyone have any information or clues that might help unravel this family mystery?

That's all we know of them & I'm searching for any information I can find on ggrandfather Richard Hamilton Levins and ggrandmother Mary Johnson(?). We have heard that Richard & Mary were divorced and she later married a Pendarvis then a Dyess/Dice. I have hit a dead end and any clues or information would be greatly appreciated.

Looking for more information.

My information if of a John Wesley Whidden who served in WWII and was based at New Caledonia as a navigator in the US (Air Corp?) as he used to be part of a crew that flew from there to Australia in 1945.

All I know is that he came from Tampa Florida and his father was supposed to be a Construction Engineer and that he had a sister Joan.

The other details I have are

When I tried tracing him through the number I could find any details so am thinking that this number is incorrect.

We do not know this first child or his family, we know all the other children and all their families. My grandfather had some of his children here too! No one claims to be kin to our Taylor family. My grandfather was WILLIAM THOMAS TAYLOR SR. HE was born 1870 in Jefferson Co AL in 1870. He married GEORGIA ADA WILLIAMS. They had several children in AL and then moved to Fannin Co TX. William Thomas Taylor married 3 more times in TX and had a total of 12 children. If you have any information on this family I would love to hear from you. I am told Richard Thomas TAYLOR's father was JOSHUA TAYLOR of GA. I am told we are not kin to the president. Also we came from ANDREW TAYLOR, kin to the ELIZABETH RIVER's TAYLOR's of NORFOLK VA. Not yet confirmed.

Evans M. Lamb in Madison County

Carol R. Lamb — 31 Jan 2005 10:53:28 GMT

Hello,
We are looking for any information regarding Evans M. Lamb in Madison County, Florida. He was on the 1850 census, and also the 1860 census as E.M.Lamb.
His first wife was Sarah Giddens and second wife was Nancy Ann Page daughter of Josiah Page, also of Madison County.
My husband is a direct descendent of Evans and Nancy, through James Abel.
We are trying to "piece" the family's migration from South Carolina via Decatur Georgia to Madison County. Josiah Page was also born in SC the same year as Evans. We are hoping this will lead us to Evan's family. All our family history regarding him and Sarah seems to end in 1810 (birth of Evans) and 1814 (birth of Sarah).
Sorry to be so wordy, but trying to supply as much information as possible. I am currently in a wheelchair due to spinal surgery, and am unable to travel to Elmer's Library in Madison.
Any information that can be shared would be most appreciated. Also, any other direct ancestor's in the area, we would love to connect with !
My email is LilReb2U@aol.com, and I will check this board frequently.
Thanking you in advance for any help/information you may have.
