4.
From Bob Bryan notice of E Book "Covington
County, Alabama People" is a long-awaited compilation of
the family notes of Judge Richard Henry Jones (1868-1949) of Andalusia.
Many of the
notes deal with families whose ancestors migrated from old Marion
County, SC to south Alabama so the book should be of interest to many
with Marion County roots.
Mr. Jones's family notes were taken from
interviews with persons now long
dead, and, in almost all cases, they include information on generations earlier than that of the
subject who was interviewed. Although very few of Judge Jones's notes
are dated, most seem to have been
made during the 1930's and 40's; some may date from the 1920's or earlier. Much of what Judge Jones included
is invaluable, especially if it
is considered as "leads" rather than as incontrovertible
evidence.
The notes are especially
helpful in accounting for marriages and migrations to Texas and other points in the
West. With the destruction of
the Covington County Court House in the 1890's, tracing the female descendants of the early settlers is
virtually impossible without the sort of anecdotal evidence which these
notes provide.
In order to make this material
available to all interested researchers, this book is immediately available as an
E-Book. The E-Book may be downloaded
in .pdf format from http://www.lulu.
com/ at a cost of only $20.00. Just type “covington county people”
without the quotation marks in the search box. You can preview
the first 10 pages or so before buying. The E-Book is fully searchable on your
computer. This feature allows you
to quickly find what you're looking for and eliminates indexing errors.
