To whom it may concern:
I am related to the cothern family mentioned in here. My grandmother was Lutucia (Trecia) Cothern who had a sister, Talitha Cothern. Lutucia Cothern married Sam Poun(d)s or Pouns as we spell it today and so did our grandfather, Sam. They had some children- and you can go to POUNS in here and try to retrieve it. My name is Donald I Pouns, the son of Houston I Pouns who passed away in 1975 and was married to Lillie Lee Hart who also had 2 daughters, Annette Stanford and Mary Ellen Forshee. Our father, Houston I Pouns had a brother-William James; sisters- Minnie- Ruth, Essie; and maybe some others that I am not sure about. After Mr. Sam passed away in 1925 I think-he later married Walter William Dickerson or W W Dickerson near the Moak's Creek community in Lincoln County, Mississippi. I do not know if any of this information will be helpful to someone looking for it, but I can be reached at brodip2003@yahoo.com for more information.
