Looking for information on the roots of this family:
Eugean Bang b. August 1866 in Jackson Co., MS. Married Rebecca Sterling in Jackson Co. on September 10, 1887. Their children included:
Sam Henry b. 1887; Alonzo (Lonie) b. 1889; Ernest b. 1894; William Westley b. 1898; Enoch b. 1900; Ollie b. 1903; James Madison b. 1907; Truman b. 1909; Lydiann b. 1913; and Jacob b. 1915. All but Truman, Lydiann, and Jacob were born in Mississippi; they were born in Louisiana.
Sometime after the 1920 census, the family went from using BANG to using BANGS as a surname - don't know why. Ernest is the only one who continued to use BANG.
Does anyone connect to this family? Am desperately trying to find out the roots of this family.
Thanks for any help!
