Hello Ann,
I think you may have filled in an important missing piece of my family puzzle. The Ananias Jackson I've been researching mothers name was Sherman Ashley, father's name Henry Jackson. In Escambia co. Ala. I've been unable to determine the location of Sherman prior to 1900 census,or any of her 18 children. Ananias from my family first appears in the 1910 census, Escambia, pine grove, Ala, however he's listed under his mother Sherman Ashley. His death notice list him as Jackson, with both parent mentioned above.
