I forgot to answer the question about Susan Jane Harben. The information I have is that she was born in Brooksville, Ala.

Re: Annie Oswalt

cockyfs — 2009-11-04 04:33:10Z

I don't have his address but the last I heard he was living in Choctaw County, MS. His father is James Edward who changed the "t" to "d" and goes by Oswald.

Re: Annie Oswalt

fhredd90 — 2009-11-03 04:33:53Z

I believe she is the Anna, for whom I am looking. What additional information do you have on her.

Re: Annie Oswalt

ejweaver1 — 2009-11-02 22:30:22Z

We have an Anna Oswalt in our family. She was born in MS in November of 1886 in Choctaw County to Henry T. and Susan J. Oswalt. Susan was born in Alabama. I do not know if this is the Annie Oswalt you are looking for.

Re: Oswalt info have some to share need more

cockyfs — 2009-08-05 17:06:29Z

Audy is believed to be the son of Francis, dau of Jasper. She married an unknown Oswalt. Jesse and Callie is the parents of Jesse whose first wife was Effie Pannell.

Re: Oswalt info have some to share need more

CPartee5942 — 2009-08-04 16:39:08Z

I found Audy (age 29) and his wife Ruby on the 1930 census in Benton Co. MS., surrounded by other Oswalt's, one of whom is Clarence age 23 with his wife and children and next door is Jim & Callie Oswalt. Jim is 49. In Jim and Callie's home are children: Cecil, Quitman and Ida (md. to William Farris). Next door is Jesse Oswalt age 25 with a wife Effie.
I assume Audy is related to these other Oswalts, likely a brother and that Jim, the elder 49 yr. old is the father of these Oswalts. Appreciate any information on them or their line back.
Thank you,

Flo, thanks for the reply. The W. R. you refer to is William Riley Oswalt his wife is Mary Evelyn Russell. I have some info on his family. I need to know the info on Morgan H., Julious, and John T. Any help with these children on William Riley's would be appreciated.
I have some on Thomas Jefferson but need more if you will share. I have his birth date as 1839, no death date, married Martha Jane Hagewood, need info on her, Have 3 children; Mary Adaeline, b. Dec 1869, Aminda born 12 Jan 1870, and Frances born 28 oct 1871, Don't know sex of Frances, the spelling should mean female but that is not always so. Help me, please.

Re: William Oswalt from Alabama

FloJames — 2009-07-19 01:57:20Z

Didn't think I was going to get logged in!! Been a long time since I was posting.
I have a copy of a census and it is not a very good copy I might add!! It is a 1850 census for what looks like Nacogdoches in Tex.
WR Oswalt age 27 place of birth Alabama
Mary age 22 (can't read birth place)
Mali (can't read) age 5 F
Amanda age 3 F birth place Texas
Eli age 1 M
David age 13 M birth place Alabama
Jefferson age 10 M
Thomas Jefferson being the one I am connected to.
I know nothing about WR Oswalt. That was about as far back as we went. It appears that this WR is a child of William b. abt 1800. And looking at the ages of Jefferson and David they are his brothers and living with WR.
Sorry I don't have anything more on them.
Goodluck
Flo

Re: Jackson TN Oswalt's

No thanks necessary. I am always glad to share what I find. I hope you find the Bible you mentioned they can be very informative. I will be in Mississippi this weekend at the Ackerman Church reunion. Many Oswalts are buried there and many of their descendants attend the reunion. I'm sure you would be welcome to come.
I'll be waiting anxiously for your return with some clues as to your ancestors. I hope the sick grandchild continues to do well. My condolences on the death in the family.

I read this old message and would like to help. I can give you information on the Oswalt family that settled in Mississippi.

I am looking for information on the family of Amerjohn Oswalt daughter of Noah Luther Oswalt and Lottie Edwards. It is believed she married Neal Ray in Mississippi and had 2 children.

Re: Jackson TN Oswalt's

cockyfs — 2009-06-04 22:05:30Z

Since I last corresponded with you I have discovered more on this family. The 1900 Madison County census has Annie N. Oswalt living in the home of Henry Martin. The census has her as his sister. She has 2 children with her Jessie 12 yrs old, and Myrtle J.10 yrs old. Another person living in the home is said to be the mother of Henry Martin but it appears her name is Susie M. Morgan born 1847.
Jessie Myrtle and Susie are shown to be born in Alabama but this is not necessarily true. Census takers were continuously
making mistakes as to where folks were born.
The 1910 census has Jessie married to Elna or Elmer O. and they have a child Jessie B. 1 yr old.
The 1930 census has Jessie J. and Elna (Elmer) with children Homer 19, Floyd 17, James 15, Lois 9, and Charles 5.
I have discovered that Homer wife is Dorothy, and Floyd's wife is Helen.
I also discovered that the Wife of Jessie is believed to be Elna Roberson.
The 1937 city directory says that Annie is the widow of Jack and living with Jessie.
Please let me know what information you can add to this.

Re: Jackson TN Oswalt's

I would like to give you the email address of the person in Memphis but I don't think I need to do it in the forum. Please contact me via email and I will send it to you. Just add att.net to my name.

Re: Jackson TN Oswalt's

cockyfs — 2009-05-31 02:35:31Z

Do you know the name of Jesse James father? It is entirely possible that your forefather did come direct from Germany to Mississippi. I have ran into this situation before where children were told that their grandparents came from Germany but the emigrant came several generations earlier. Your grandparents or at least your great-grandparents couldn't read or write and probably still spoke German. It would seem that they came directly from Germany in that case.
I will continue to search in your lineage and hope I come up with something to prove whether they should be on my list of descendants or whether they did in fact come directly from Germany to Mississippi.
Please let me know if you mother has something to add that might help. Do you know of an old family Bible? They have clues sometimes as to who past generations were. In any case I will keep in touch. I do know of another family of Oswalts in the Memphis area that had an ancestor named Jesse James. If you're interested let me know.

Re: Jackson TN Oswalt's

cockyfs — 2009-05-30 02:39:56Z

I married a Oswalt here in South Carolina. When I started compiling information, I had no idea how many of her family had went west. Most of the male brothers of her grandfather and west west. There are probably more Oswalt's in Mississippi than is here on South Carolina. I am intrigued by the fact that Jesse James was your grandfather. I have been tracking a Jesse James Oswalt whose father came from SC to Alabama then to Mississippi and settled in Lee County. Have you any information on your grandfather's family, brothers, sisters, etc.? You mentioned he came from Germany, is this what you were told or have you some other reason to think this. All of the Oswalts that came from South Carolina came from Germany.
You said you didn't recall any mention of Annie, she is listed living at the same address making me think she is a relative.

Re: Jackson TN Oswalt's

cockyfs — 2009-05-29 21:18:31Z

I am in the process of compiling the genealogy of the Oswalt family and need information on that family. I'm not sure if they came from the families I am researching so I need to know where they came from. The families I am interested in came from Germany through South Carolina. Please reply so I'll quit looking for information on them if they cam from elsewhere.

Hi again. OK. Jesse James was my Grandfather. As far as I know his parents came from Germany. Floyd and Lois was my Aunt and Uncle. I do not know what part of Germany that they did come from. But I wish I did. My father is gone now (Jesse James son) and I can't ask him. But if there is any other question you want to ask me let me know and I will try to help. Do you happen to be kin to the Oswalts?
I do not remember Annie being mentioned by my Dad.

L. Riddle

Re: Jackson TN Oswalt's

lariddle2 — 2009-05-31 01:26:45Z

I'm sorry, I told you wrong. It was my Grandfather's (Jesse James) parents that came here from Germany. Not Jesse. At least that is what my Dad told me. Jesse James was born here in the states. My dad is gone now but maybe my Mom can tell me something about what you need to know. I will ask her on Monday when I go and see her.

L. Riddle

Re: Jackson TN Oswalt's

lariddle2 — 2009-05-31 04:03:37Z

I will see what I can find out from my Mom. Yes I would be interested in the ones in Memphis. I have always wanted to find people that I am kin to.

Re: Jackson TN Oswalt's

lariddl2 — 2009-06-05 17:13:37Z

Sorry that it has been awhile since I have written. We had a death in the family and my grandson had his tonsils taken out and I had to take care of him while my daughter worked.
OK. On the people that you have found are all kin to me. They are my aunts and uncles. Except for Charles, he is my
Dad. Floyd and Helen lived in or around Atlanta, Ga.With their children. Floyd is dead now, but I do not know about
Helen. Homer died many years ago, but I do not know about his wife. James lived here with his wife (Edna) and their
children.Both of them are dead now to. Lois lived in St. Louis with her husband (Chuck).
They didn't have any children. Lois died in a car wreck many years ago when I was little. They also had another
sister that was crippled, but I can't think of her name
right now. But when I do I will let you know.I think she died at an early age(We still have the baby bed that she
stayed in.)I don't know if this will help, but Dad always
talked about him (as a boy growing up) living in Tracy City
Tennessee. Dad and Mom (Irene) always lived here with us
kids. I am going to try and find out who has my Mom's bible.
She says that some of this information is in it. Also, I
just wanted to say thanks for sharing this information with
me.
