Hardees in Taylor County

jennifergrouch — 2009-10-13 13:23:09Z

If someone has a book of Taylor County Cemeteries, could you possibly do a lookup for me?

I am searching for any Hardees who are buried at Pisgah Cemetery in Perry. I found a note in another source that placed Thomas Hardee's burial there. He married Gracy Jones in Georgia.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Im interested in a John T.(H)Hogan b.abt 1835 Ga.living in Taylor Co.Fla.
1880 Taylor Co.Florida Censua In the house hold was two boys listerd as nephews Thomas Miller and Pascal Miller, The Miller Boys were listed earlier with Mother Sally Miller,and two Girls Julia and Florance Miller.This leads me to beleive Sally was a Hogan before she married a Miller.
Do you have anything on this Hogan Familey?

H.L. Tillman was Henry Tillman and he married Mary E. Lundy. Mary's first husband, James W. (Whiley) Lundy, died on 25 September 1907. They were in the 1910 Taylor County Census and in 1920 were in the Manatee County Census. Henry was my grandfather's stepfather.

Hi Jessie, Thanks for the information. I have, now, a copy of the Marriage License of James Hill and Vick Prevatt,
12 July 1911. Taylor Co. No other identifying information.(age or such) This may be my grandmother Frances Victoria PREVATT since the date is 1911. She was listed in the 1910 Salem FL Census as a widow living with her father, James Cannon, including the four minor children (my father, Willie Prevatt). It listed a brother and sister(Donie Cannon Murphy) IF YOU HAVE death records or any other information that might relate to her, I would appreciate your help. My father spoke of a step-father, but no name. She may have died in childbirth... but I am not sure and I am still looking. Please e-mail me: WLLPTHOM@AOL.COM

Re: Hendry (from Perry FLORIDA)

Willene_Thomas — 2009-08-22 15:22:49Z

Hi Danielle, I have been out of contact with genealogy for some time. Reading your message about the Cannon family is interesting. My grandmother: Frances Victoria CANNON Prevatt was living in Salem, FL Census Records with her father,James Cannon, a brother and sister. She was a widow and her four sons (my father, Willie Prevatt)was included in the census record. I have since gotten a copy of a marriage of James Hill and Vick PREVATT on 12 July 1911.Taylor Co. This date would be in agreement with the Census records. However, the marriage record does not give any other information. I know that my father spoke of having a step father, but we don't have the name. Her sister: Doney (Donie) married a Murphy. IF YOU HAVE ANY INFORMATION ON THIS RELATIVE, PLEASE CONTACT MY E-MAIL;

Re: HILL & FLETCHER

Palmprops — 2009-08-21 20:06:35Z

I have to add that these families get confused often.

Peter McLeod married Nancy J Hill.
they had three children, Edward Harney, India C, and Peter T.
She might have remarried after this, but three children came from this marraige. They were married in 1876 and the last record of them together is the 1880 census in Manatee County.

Re: Allen Family of Ellaville, Taylor County Florida

JOYCE1812VA — 2009-07-21 19:58:02Z

Well, I found info on all listed except for Lizzie with Williamson.

The only two records are a 1910 Westlak, Hampton, FL census where Williamson is 21 yrs old, and is a border

the other is the WW1 draft record showing his birth as Sept. 19 1889, born in Ellaville, Fl. in Taylor co.

No death records, no census.... do you know when/where he died?

Still looking.... picking away

Re: Allen Family of Ellaville, Taylor County Florida

JOYCE1812VA — 2009-07-21 19:39:31Z

I hope that was a typo of Williamson's wife...James?
James Calhoun Gray?

Re: Allen Family of Ellaville, Taylor County Florida

John 1856
William Thomas 1862

Your Allen family is hard to find.

I did find a WW1 draft reg. for Williamson Allen
most likely you have this info... just passing along

Born 9/19/1889 in Ellaville,Taylor, FL

In the 1910 Westlake, Hamiliton co. Fl census
William Allen born FL... both parents born in FL

do you have a guess of dates for John M. Allen, or his parents Mile adn Lizzie Allen of Alabama.

Do youknow of any siblingsof John M. Allen?
Or even of Williamson Allen?

Re: William Bartley Osteen, Jr.

I show William Bartley O'Steen,b.abt. 1835, in SC, m. Rebecca DURRANCE, and died/buried in Chiefland, FL.

Don't know if that's of any help, but...

In Lafayette Co., the w was dropped from Riley's name. He's listed and known as Riley O'STEEN, or William Riley.
This may be a nephew of the Wriley O'STEEN you're looking for.
I realized I don't have anything on Wm. Bartley,JR., only Sr.

God bless!!

Re: William Bartley Osteen, Jr.

ThomasA_Waters — 2009-02-17 14:42:01Z

I didn't know he was buried in Chiefland. Thanks!

William Bartley Osteen, Sr. had two sons named William. The older William was William Riley and the younger was William Bartley, Jr. I don't know why they named them this way. Usually the older would be the "Jr.".

There was a rumor that the last two children of Rebecca were not the children of Wm. B. Sr. as he was already dead. I have no proof of that.

Jr. and his wife are burried in the Shiloh Cemetery according to my mother, their granddaughter. There are no longer any markers for them as they were probably made of wood at the time and have since deteriorated.

Thanks,
Tom Waters

I am looking for my grandfather's father. His name was Samuel Dewey Taylor born in October 1989. His father might have been George and his mother might have been Mary. His siblings names included Jessie, Ruth, Oscar, Lewis, Bill and Glen. He lived many years in Illinois around Chicago and had four children by his first wife. Two were named Arville Lee and Cleo. His wife left him and he moved to Washington Co. Tennessee. His brother Glen married Mary Virginia Willis Tadlock. Samuel Dewey married her daughter Wanda Tadlock, my grandmother. Any assistance you could give would be greatly appreciated!

Re: Perry, Florida Burial (Katiba)

cmswetich — 2009-03-04 00:58:30Z

I believe Eva Mae Dykes to be my grandmother. She was my mother's biological mother. I have some scant (oral family history)information on her and would love for you to contact me. Was she a relative of yours? The dates you have are similar to the dates we have. We have no pictures or anything of Eva's except her death certificate. I traced her burial plot back in 2000 to a north FL city, i'll have to locate that information. When my mother passed in 2001 I gave up looking for information on Eva. However, I recently found a grave site with her name on it, dates don't match exactly. Please check this out: http://www.worldvitalrecords.com/zsearch.aspx?ix=findagrave&...

and please reply. are we perhaps related through Eva?

Eliza Barington/Barrington + Mason James Howell

lhbomesberger — 2008-12-15 15:44:13Z

I am looking for the parents of Eliza. I have Masons parents as Daniel and Nancy Howell they were living next door to Mason and Eliza on the 1870 Taylor County, Florida census. I have looked high and low for anything on Eliza but no luck. I can find only 1 Barington listed on the 1960 census maybe it was spelled wrong but at the moment I am at a loss on anything but the above spelling. I am also trying to help another Howell cousin he is the direct line down from Mason and Eliza. Any help would be appreciated. They were suppose to have been married 31 of Jan 1867 in Taylor Florida. Mason later married Martha C Ezell and had several children with her. Eliza is said to have passed in 1874 but this is only from others files not shure where they got the info. It is said he married Martha C Ezell Dec.8.1880 any help. Thanks in Advance

Re: Some Corrections for Bonnie Churchill Taylor/Robert not Frank

SueRoten — 2009-04-09 18:04:07Z

Bonnie Taylor had a brother (not uncle) Robert (not Frank) who lived in Pasadena and one of his daughters is Marilyn the dancer. Bonnie had other siblings and another niece named Phylis. She played the violin. The Canadian Indian tribe might be Cree, not Kree. Hope this helps. Thanks!

Re: Bonnie Churchill Taylor

SueRoten — 2009-04-09 16:00:17Z

The Tadeau/Taylor I'm looking for would have been born in the late 1800s as his daughter, Bonnie Taylor was born Apr 23, 1907 in Illinois. The story told is that Bonnie's mother, Sarah Churchill was from England and migrated to Canada where she met her husband who was a Tadeau (Taylor). She had an all girl band in the 1930s. I hate to be insensitive but the oral family history is that Sarah Churchill went "nuts" and was put into an institution and her daughter was put into a foster home. Sarah finished her life in an institution.

I do not know the first name of Bonnie's father but his last name was Tadeau/Taylor. I know he played the violin very well and he had a brother whose name may have been Frank. Frank had two daughters. One daughter's name was Marilyn and she was a dancer in the traveling show "My Fair
Lady". They may have had a brother as well.

Ring any bells?

Bonnie Churchill Taylor

SueRoten — 2009-04-08 20:39:55Z

I'm researching Bonnie Churchill Taylor. Her father came from Canada and his name was Tadeau, French for Taylor. He was an Indian, maybe "Kree". He was either full or part Indian, he played the violin well. This Taylor had a brother named Frank? Tadeau who had two daughters. One daughter's name was Marilyn and she was a dancer in the traveling show "My Fair Lady". They may have had a brother as well. Any clues would be helpful. Thanks!

Gladys Parker - possibly the sister of Juanita Wynn Mosley of Perry FL

gosborne27 — 2009-05-03 01:07:47Z

Does anyone have a Gladys Parker in your family tree? I have a Lancia/Lancy Wynn born abt 1905 in Perry FL that I THINK might be Gladys Parker. Gladys and Juanita came to my uncle, Theo Bramlett Rose's funeral in 1958 and both were listed as aunts. Juanita Wynn Mosley IS MY AUNT. The parents would be William & Mahala Wynn of Perry FL. The only other female sibling of William & Mahala was my grandmother, Ella Bertie Wynn Rose, who died in 1914 so these two would be the only siblings left who could of attended my uncles funeral. gosborne@stny.rr.com

Re: Woods and Weaver from Perry, Florida

gosborne27 — 2009-07-14 21:09:48Z

Supposedly she was married to John Franklin Rose, so I assume ROSE but you could check Wynn/Winn. Anything in there about Willie or William D Wynn/Winn? That was my gr-grandfather. Also was the birth date for Wiley 1883? He was born in 1889 according to baptismal records. Thanks so much for your time.

Re: Woods and Weaver from Perry, Florida

Wiley died in 1953; were irene and wiley buried next to each other perhaps. I sure wish I could get down to Perry and walk around. I'd like to see if I could find where Mahala (Wiley's mother)lived to see if there were any burial plots on the land. I'd like to see if I could find where Wiley's father, Willie, and his sister, Ella, were buried. Thank you for all your help; it's much appreciated.

Anyone out there researching this family surname? William & Mahala Winn/Wynn lived there starting approx 1910 and Mahala died in Perry in 1953. Her son Wiley lived there until his death in 1958 and worked for the prison system. Juanita (Warnie) Wynn m. Eddie Mosley and lived there until her death in 1975. The Winn/Wynn's had other children, James A, Wiliam Eugene, Ella Bertie, Cecil, Lancy (possibly went by Lossie), Warnie (Juanita). Lossie married a James Sealey and I was told had several children.

In my line, I have an Irene Woods who M1 Charlie Poppell and M2 Wiley Wynn from Perry FL. As far as I can tell, they had no children. A family member tells me that Wiley's girlfriend, Emma, handled his funeral in 1958 so Irene must of died before that time. Do you have any WYNN/WINN info in your files?

Re: POPPELL/GASKIN(S)/ROSE/WYNN REUNIONS - NEED PHOTO HELP

I don't recognize any of those names other than Irene Woods who married (1) Charlie Poppell and (2) Wiley Wynn. But it's nice to hear from some Taylor County folks. If any more names click into place, please give let me know. I have exhausted my resources so my info now depends on others who read my messages and respond, like yourself.
