Re: death date/place for Leah (Smith) Craft

hgosnell — 2013-04-25 03:35:59Z

The best way to find where she was burried; would be to get
her Obituary: You have her full death date so might want to look into that.

All of the known Cemeteries in Vernon Parish, LA., is on line
at the Vernon Parish site; but you would have to look through
each one and still no find her: she may not have had a stone.

I am connected through marriage to a Dainel Webster Smith b. 1852 in MS., County unknown: he moved to Miller Co., AR., at some point. He married a Julia Fike. Some of hisdescendents moved to Vernon Parish, LA.

Ah, didn't know Vernon was formed from part of Rapides Parish, good to know. Next mysteries to resolve is where she was buried and why her husband evidently didn't accompany his family to LA and died in 1887 in Smith Co. MS ....

Re: death date/place for Leah (Smith) Craft

hgosnell — 2013-04-24 19:02:38Z

Found on Ancestery.com:

Birth: 3 Dec 1824 - United States
Marriage: Bef 1844 - Smith, Mississippi, United States
Death: 12 Mar 1895 - Vernon Parish (Vernon), Louisiana, United States
Parents: Tobias Smith, Rebecca Bankston
Spouse: William Whitman Craft

I have no known connection:
Harold Gosnell
p.s. befor the 1880 Census, Vernon Parish was part of Rapdes Parish, LA.;
Vernon Parish Louisiana was created in 1872.

death date/place for Leah (Smith) Craft

neillk2010 — 2013-04-24 16:06:22Z

Anyone know where I can get information about the death date and place for Leah (Smith) Craft, daughter of Tobias Smith and wife of William Craft?

Census records reflect she was born during 1825 in Mississippi and moved to Rapides Parish, then to Vernon Parish LA. Different researchers report varying dates for death between 1880 and 1895. However, I haven't found any records yet to confirm the date.

Re: a. graham grave location

David,

My Grahams were from Crystal Springs, too, in part. My 4-great grandmother, a Cinderella Jane Graham, was married to a William Sanders, and I'm pretty sure they lived there for a time, at least. What has your family always said about where these Grahams were from before coming to this country? Were they from Ireland, or Scotland? I'd love to know! Thanks, and may God bless you!

Any info appreciated. Morris T Brown had a Daughter Lurea or Lurey Brown is my GrandMother. She had 3 sons with James Marles Howard. The youngest was my Father James Douglas Howard. She died on Feb 17, 1945 on her 30th Birthdday. Always heard car accident in Jackson Parish. All Ive found on her is she was a housekeeper for The Charley Cummings Family and divorced. She did remarry between 1940 and her death in 1945. I have spent 3 months straight looking for anything on her life. Not even an Obit cn I find. There are 2 death index cards with date of death and one list Negro and the other White. And last name Jordon and Jordan. Well she was White but its as dying on Birthdate which isnt common in same parish I figure?... So with differnt spellings for first and last names doesnt help. She is buried in Walnut Ridge Cemetery. Any help will be most appreciated! Thank You Carol Howard

Thank you very much for all of that information. It realy does help.

When I was growing up in Vernon Parish, LA., 1950'd; I used to see an old man and woman and was told that it was Rose Bud and Bloomer Cobb. Didn't realize then that was their name.

It looks like that Goldie was burried under the name of Fannie.
That is why I couldn't find her.

Thanks again for all of that information. I'm connected throlugh their daughter Bertie.

Re: marriage records for BALLs

TroyceHendricks — 2013-01-05 14:25:30Z

My Great Grandmother was a Williams from Vernon Parish! Nellie Jane Williams. She was born 2/14/1874 Her parents were Nun Clark & Sarah Jane Davis Williams. Nellie Jane had several brothers, Dan, James, & Allen Williams. Nun Clark was born May 4, 1832 in Columbia County, Alabama & later moved into Vernon Parish, La. Clark also served in the Confederate Army during the civil war for Louisiana. He died Feb. 23, 1914 and is buried @ Good Hope Cemetery near Anacoco, La. Do any of these tie in with yours?

Nightsweet — 2012-12-13 17:38:14Z

I would like to find some information on Issac J. Brooks's wife, Delia Melinda, born in 1876 and died in 1966, this is all the information that I have on her. I would like to know the names of her parents and the dates of their births and deaths if anyone knows this, I sure would appreciate it. Thank you .

Re: Issac J. Brooks

11944 — 2012-12-07 22:11:19Z

Yes I would consider her the mother of Delia/Dela as on the census records, but the she could be Brooks mother also but remarried to a Martin, it says related to head of household which would be Brooks, and since both Delia & Isaac say parents born in Louisiana. Have you found all you need on Brooks, to see if his mother was named Sallie/Sally?
I didn't try to find Sallie Martin in 1900 census. Try Sally or Sallie Martin born 1850-52, she should be in 1900, 1880 census maybe in 1870 census also, if she married about age 16. Check census records in Texas and Louisiana.
Do you have the death certificate for Delia? Their marriage record?
try
familysearch.org
and ancestry.com
if your near a library hat has genealogy records, there are some free search sites you can use at library.

Re: Issac J. Brooks

Nightsweet — 2012-12-07 19:52:09Z

I appreciated the reply that you sent to me. I wanted to ask you if this Sallie Martin that was listed in the census would be Delia's mother? if so do you have any more information about whom she was married to, that I could search to find out whom her parents were? Thanks again. Billie W. Stephens.

I have many pics of him. And would love to be able to locate the names of his parents.. I do know that the name Kile or Kyle was in it, but his kids never talked about it much cause of some kind of family secret. Do you have any info that may be helpful in my search. And who was your grandparents. I know his kids were, leola Nora, Monroe, gilbert, Hattie, fred,Mildred and Floyd... Think that is all of them... I have a wonderful family photo of all of them if you would like to see it send me your email and I will sent it too you...

I have a Smart/West connection in my Vernon Parish family, also. My Gr-grandmother, Lydia Crews West, was the daughter of Madison West and Nancy Henderson. Madison and Nancy also had a daughter named Nancy who married Dr. E.E. Smart. I believe that they started the Smart Chapel Cemetery near Leesville...might be a place for you to look.
