Looking for any information on Peavy's in Central LA. James Madison or Joshua Peavy

Hi,

Sarah Louvenia Murphy was born in the month of May in Bienville Parish, Louisiana. She was my great-great grandmother on my Mom's side.

Sarah was married to Abram GAA. Peavy on or about 14 April 1870. She died in Van Zandt County, Texas on or about 17 June 1923.

They has a son, my great grandfather, Allen Elias Peavy who was born on 25 March 1871 and died 09 January 1949.

Hope this helps. I am researching the Peavy family line also. The above information is from my mother who is still living and other Peavy relatives.

Edward,

Hi, I do not know if this information will help, but my grandmother's name was Susie Peavy Abbitt, she was born May 8, 1897 and died in July 1975. She married Metz Abbitt. These records are in the Minden Louisiana Courthouse. At one time I actually had a copy of their marriage certificate. She was 18 and he was 29. There is a mention of a Sumpter Peavy, don't really know who that was.

Hope this will help you. If you have any questions email me at lolane@shreve.net.

Sincerely,

I am seeking information on relatives on my father's side. My father's name was Jim (not James), my uncle was Roy Peavy, my other uncle was Clyde Peavy, my aunt was Gladys Peavy. My father married Jacqueline Barbara Neel. Their children were Lorita Gail, June, Alton Lynn, Debra Kay, David Wayne, and Sharon Renee. Roy married Gertrude (Gertie) Graham. Their children were Wynelle, Graham, and Audelle. To my knowledge Clyde never married. Any information would be appreciated as I do not know my grandfather's or grandmother's name, birth or death dates, or birthplaces.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,

The Peavy's I am kin to were from around Minden and Germantown Colony, which is, I think just North of Minden. My grandmother was Susie Peavy, I do not know who her sisters or brothers were. I found a lot of records in the Minden Courthouse. Marriages and all sorts of things. You may want to check in there to see if there were any relations.

Also, if you get on the internet and check under Minden, Louisiana you will find a history about the Germantown Colony. You can email the person that has this information.

I am looking up a lot of information on the Peavy side of my family, if I run across anything I will let you know.

Good Luck in your search!

Till next time.

Thank you, Lois--

Hi,

If in your research you come across an Allen Peavy who was born in Minden, Louisiana please let me know.

He was the son of Abram Peavy and Sarah Louvenia "Sallie" Murphy and is or was my great grandfather.

my grandmother was ardell peavy, her father was Burell peavy and her mother was Lula Wooley. I am looking for information also. I think Burell had a brother named Bill. Burell and Lula Children were Mike, Walter, Jessie, Ardell, Anniebell, Ruby and dora.

The first Peavy/Peevy families in Vernon-then Rapides Parish, La were John William, James F. and Joshua A Peevy, their mother Martha and some of her children. I have a lot of the early generations from those brothers-not much on the latest ones. Contact the Vernon Historical Society at the History Museum or just the library-there are a bunch of Peavy/Peevy researchers still around and they would be happy to help. Louise Troth

I am not sure which one you are looking for-the first John Peavy/Peevy to move to Rapides Parish, now Vernon, was John William and his wife Caroline Coon. His brothers Joshua and James and their grandchildren all seemed to use the same names over and over. See my message above for further contacts. Louise Troth

Bill,

I do not know much more than you, except that Ardell Peavy was my great aunt. My grandmother was Ruby Peavy. She was married to Jackson Merrell,witch was her first husband. After jack died she married a man by the name JD Steward. I am also looking for info. on my grandfather Jackson Merrell. any help will be aprechated.

this susie peavy... was she married to pursey? Can't remember the last name... had a home with a lot of camilias around it is all I can remember. Maybe the name of Hoyt

I did not know Susie Peavy so I don't know if she was indeed a Pursey or Pursley. I appreciate your response to my request, though.
Sincerely,
Lorita Peavy Manning
