Turnipseed/Fedric

Dan L Fedric Jr  (View posts) Posted: 6 May 1999 10:53AM GMT
I am from Charleston, Mississippi, I am retired
from the US Navy and now live with my Wife and Child
in Jacksonville Florida. After I retired from
the Navy I researched my Fedric Family Tree
I have a story about Radford Jones Fedric It goes from
when his G-Grandfather(John Fedric)came to the US with General
Layfette durning the American Revolution til when
RJ Fedric settled in Tallahatchie County after the Civil
War in about 1865.
RJ had about 8 kids and one of them is my
G-Grandfather David fedric.
In the story it says that RJ Fedric was coming from
N Carolina and he stoped in alabama and met Daniel
Turnipseed. And RJ was a great Carpender. So he built
Daniel a two story house and he became the head
overseer for the slaves on Daniels 3 plantations while
Fleix B Turnipseed, Emmas brother, went to Medical School
Eventually RJ Fedric Married Emma Turnipseed and thay went
into Mississippi with 3 slaves as a wedding gift and RJ was Building
houses and Building bridges for the Rail Road.
Before the Civil was RJ was a Muli Millionare
and I also believe that Felix and Daniel and some more Turnipseeds
are buried in an old unkeep Cematary near Cacilla, Ms just outside
Charleston,Ms That Edward Mays Fedric that now lives in Clarksdale Miss.
and his brother from Grnanada, Ms use to take care of But
Now E.M. Fedric is about 85 and his brotheris dead so noone takes care of it now
Lots of fedrics andTurnipseed up There
You no that R J was a Lt in the 5th Miss. Calverey durning the
Civil ware
Also any one that spells their name Fedric is my kin or an x-Slave
Even though RJ was a very Smart Man he only Recive a
2 years of Formal Education and His name was spelled Federick
while in N. Carolina. I believe that Fedric is RJ's Misspelling
