Freeman & McCarver Families
I am searching for information on Georgia (maiden name unsure of) FREEMAN.
The 1900 Lawrence Co. AL Census page 234A Mt. Hope Beat # 6 has this:
68/70 FREEMAN, Georgia A.white head of house born Aug. 1872 age 27 widow with 4 children born to her and 4 living. AL AL AL seamstress.
Children:
Minnie (I or J) dau. whiteMar. 1893 age 7 AL AL AL
*Henry F. (Franklin) son whiteDec. 1894 5 AL AL AL
Della B. dau. white Apr. 1895 4 AL AL AL
Jimmie L. dau white Nov. 1898 1 AL AL AL
(The information here tells me that her husband died btw 1898 and 1900)
I have a death cert. for Henry Franklin FREEMAN that list the father as Jim FREEMAN and the mother section has an ink blot on it and a name that is smudged, which looks like McCARVER.
On the census page before Georgia A. FREEMAN, (234B) is a FREEMAN family:
51/53 FREEMAN, James W. white Apr. 1852 age 48 married 16 years AL NC SC
Dora G. wife whiteOct 1855 44 5 born 4 living AL VA AL

Anna E. dau white Sept 1887 12 AL ALAL
Lula dau whiteOct 1893 6 AL AL AL
Walter T. son whiteJuly 1896 3 AL AL AL
(There ar 7 children listed here so not all of them are Dora's James must have had another wife before her)
Above (next door) to this FREEMAN family are 2 McCARVER families:

(Mary's husband died btw 1884 and 1900)

Are these families connected to Georgia??
I have been searching for Henry Franklin FREEMAN's family (husband's line) for 18 years and have just discovered he was in this county, any help will be greatly appreciated!!!
