Billie, I believe that I have told you previously that the family of
Allsbrooks was listed in
Louisiana. I don't remember if I told you what parish or not and I am looking through my notes which I plan to go back and check each family to verify my research since it was so long ago and my memory doesn't work all that well. (I have families records on
Allsbrooks,
Crawford,
Harris,
Weeks, Glass,
Allred,
Harris,
Stephens,Runnels/Reynoldls,
Barley,
Thompson,
Chitty, Roland, Rozzell,
Chisham, Thomas, Dunns, White,
Humble, Bellard, Jeanis/Janis,
Murphy,
Beau, Leger, Lejeiune,
Matte,
Fontenot,
Lebleu and some I am sure I am not listing.) They are in huge notebooks because I try to research each family member in each lineage. I hope my research is correct because there are so many that are not and that is why I am going back and checking. I wasn't looking to join any of the groups, just to find out more about my ancestor. Believe me I could have picked some of these ancestors and been though researching--only some are not right. I do have some bible records sources but so far, no one seems to know anything about them and they were back in the 1800's. Why.
So here is why I have, when I was searching my husband's family I discovered J. B. (T ??) Osbrouk at household 362 at the age of 25 married, farmer, 460 value, place born MS. Listed is his wife Mandy
Rolin 21, f , Ms and a Samuel B Osbrouk, 1, m MS. Now this was taken 19th ;(I think) day of July 1860, in Rapids
Parish LA. Page 89. I do have a copy of this.
The only way that I knew that this was my group was the fact that the 1860 census taker listed the maiden name of the spouse. Since I had check the death records on Joseph in the Co. Clerk's office, I would have missed this entry because I was not looking for a ROLAND. However, on the death certificate, Grandpa James
Allsbrooks had listed his money as Susan Amanda Roland and I had just found this certicate and knew that new information. Can email a copy if you wish.
