In Reply to: Davis family in Butler Co. in 1866 State Census by Ola Mae Trout of 950

Dear Ola Mae,

I have done some research in Butler Co., but I don't have your Davis family in my database.

Butler Co. was created in 1819 from Conecuh & Monroe counties. Butler Co., PO Box 756, Greenville, AL 36037-0756
Courthouse burned April 1853 - Pro Judge has b & d rec 1894 to 1919; m pro lnd rec 1853 to present. Phone: 205-382-3612. Source: Handy book for Genealogists ©1995. Call ahead for fees. Area code changed to 334 after book was published.

Sometime ago, 67-books were published by Heritage Publishing Co. One for each Alabama county, plus an index. You may want to contact the Butler County Heritage Book Committee, P. O. Box 971, Greenville, AL 36037. Committee members were members of Butler Co. Historical Society. Someone there may be able to help you find the information you are looking for.

I am a native of Southwest Louisiana, and I have lived in Birmingham, AL since my marriage to Ed Wells in 1954. Ed was
born in Honoraville, Crenshaw Co., AL. Sometime during WWII, his parents moved to Greenville where they owned and operated R. F. Wells Grocery on College St. The store was originally owned by Ed's grandfather, John Green "Toby" Wells and his wife Lula Thomas. After being discharged from service, Ed's brother, Billy Gray Wells, returned to Greenville, where he owned and operated B. G. Wells Grocery across the road from the Glove factory.
