Hi all,
I posted in October, but only got 1 response, so I thought I would post a little more detailed info.
Since all my Key West / Bahamas ancestors are on my Mom's side, I will post her ancestors.
If anyone is interested in my Alabama BEDGOODs, drop me an email.
There are a few duplicates, as my grandparents were 3rd cousins one way and 4th cousins another.
So, here are the ancestors of Carla Jean CLEARE, daughter of Kermit Samuel CLEARE and Ida Emma CURRY.
Hope I can find a match and some new cousins. :-)
