Bio and Links
Bio Photo I live in the Mississippi Delta. I have been tracing my family history for many years. Some of the families I am researaching (all with southern roots) are: Bennett, James, Skelton, Newton, Howard, Hays, Garner, Little, Westbrook, Warrick, Long, Arbuckle, Blaylock, and Sullivan. If you have relatives in Carroll County and/or Montgomery County, Mississippi in the 1800s, chances are good that our lines cross.

John Andrew Meyer
Elizabeth Taylor Bennett
According to the Carroll County Mississippi marriage index Elizabeth was Elizabeth Taylor Carpenter. Do you know why there is a difference in her surname?

RE: Cleo Terrell
Hi Portia,
Thank you for transferring Cleo Terrell. I'm new to find a grave, but I'm sure enjoying viewing and adding friends and family to this site. I've noticed that you have quite a few listings in the Lehrton cemetery. I'm from Ruleville and have lots of family members in Lehrton. As a matter of fact, I lived in the caretaker's house at Lehrton from approximately 1985 to 1992(got married in area around Burnham graves-Garden of Memories). I've got a lot of information about residents of Lehrton, so I hope you won't mind if a send additional information to your memorials. My relatives are Terrells, Vowells, Gibsons, Bennetts, Carlisles and Pickles. Most migrated from hill counties so I'm also interested in cemeteries in Webster, Winston and Attala counties. Thanks again for your email and I look forward to crossing paths again on Find a Grave.
Ronald
