STILL LOOKING FOR CROSBY/COSBY SIBLINGS-1800'S AL/GA
Posted by: Paula Dunklin (ID *****6365) Date: December 28, 2008 at 00:36:09

I'm still seeking information on the Hugh W. Crosby/Cosby family that was in AL and GA in 1870-1900.

Hugh was supposedly born ca 1845 in AL, parents unknown. His wife was Sarah (nee WILSON?)Crosby, born ca 1849 GA. Most likely married 1867-1869, unknown where.

The 1870 Morgan Co AL census shows first son, James W. Crosby/Cosby, born Sept 1869 AL.

The 1880 Chattooga Co GA census shows family with 3 more sons....Milton, born ca 1872 AL; Lafayette, born ca 1873 TN?; and John G, born ca 1876 GA/AL. Have nothing for 1890 since that census isn't available. It is thought that Sarah died ca 1889-1899.

Hugh is found on the 1900 Jackson Co AL census with 2nd wife of 1 year, Mary M.; born ca 1858 in AL or TN. Believe she was a Ferguson. Apparently she was previously married to a Terry husband before her marriage to Hugh as there is also a James E. Terry on that census shown as a step-son.

If the Jackson Co AL Hugh is the same person, he and Sarah had more children before 1890. They are thought to be daughter, Mary Callie, born AL ca 1883; Frank, born AL ca 1886; and Isaac Marion, born AL ca 1889. Mary Callie married an Andrew Flippo in 1899.

Surely, these people must have descendants somewhere. Can anyone help?
