Notes for DONIE ELIZABETH CASTON:
SOURCE:Beverly Liner, granddaughter of Albert Sidney and Donnie Elizabeth Caston.
My grandparents married against the will of their parents although they were not closly related and had never met as relatives. In the beginning they did not know they were distant cousins. My grandfather owned a general store in Amite County, Mississippi. He met my Grandmother there. Against opposition my Grandpa sold his store and gave my Grandma the money, she traveled to Gloster, Mississippi to await Grandpa. Donie's brother traveled with her to Gloster.After my grandpa arrived they were married " before sunset" with her brother standing for both of them. They traveled on the following day to Jennings, Louisiana where he bought another General Store. Their first child was born there. I, of course have all the dates and places of births and deaths. There is much online already through others efforts, Jennifer Payne's site covers alot as does Sue Skays. I have corresponded with Jen Payne and she is very helpful.
