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,

Hi,
I am Oda Pearce, Great Grand Daughter of John Allen Peavy. I do not know anything about Evie Allen but what I found on the 1920 and 1930 census. Please e-mail me at restaurante@earthlink.net. I have been stuck of John Allen for some time but do have civil war, marriage, death info. John wasborn in GA, married in AR, died in Coweta OK. Thanks

My ggrandfather was William F Peavy. He had two sons that I know of my grandfather, James Minor Peavy and Joshua Peavy. Joshua Peavy never married and James married Meller Blackwell of Simpson, La. James and Meller had three children, Iva, Jay, and Hazel. Iva married Henry Free, Jay married Delia Williams, and Hazel married Almon Walters. Jay Peavy was my father and we lived in Slagle, La. Iva and Hazel are buried at Pine Island Cemetary in Simpson, La. Jay is buried in the Leesville Cemetary.

I am doing research on my daughters father. His name is Carl Peavy. His father was James or Jim Peavy and his father's name was Roy. Thye lived in Jackson Michigan when We met. Do you think there is a link to your family and my daughters. Thanks.
Mary
