In Father Hebert's book, in 1826 Louvicy Alston married Abraham Cole;her parents were listed as John Alston and Sina Barnes. The one who gave permission for the marriage was Sina Barnes, not Sina Alston so Barnes couldn't be her maiden name.In the 1830 census of St. Landry there is a Widow Sinai Barnes with some young men in the household living near Celestine Clark's older sister.Near Nashville, I found a marriage record of John Alston and Sina Hooper.John D. named one of his daughters Sina.Old Sina later married a Simmons.I hope that this helps.CARLA
