My great grandmother was Trannie B. Coleman Thrower. Her father was McDonald Coleman. They lived in Itawamba Co MS for many years. Mac was on of several kids. Mac was a ferryman on the Tombigbee river. He died in about 1878 leaving his wife with several kids to raise. She died a year later and the kids went to live with relatives. Some of Mac's kids moved to TX then to OK. Other stayed in MS and later migrated also to OK. Mac's father was parents were Hezekiah Raney Coleman and Martha Bellew (varies spellings). Too many kids in either family to list here.
