I have been tracking my ggrandmother, Rose Ann Dea Davis, in Mobile Co., Al. She shows in 1870 census as living as boarder at age 16 and working at paper mill in Mobile Co.
Her marriage license is signed as maiden name Dea. One of our family tree's lists her fa. as Brown, b. Eng. As far as I can tie her to Dees is a maybe (that she was from Washington Co., Al. nearby). No Dea names around this area, closest grouping is several counties away in Choctaw and Clark, which surround Washington Co., Al. Do you have any info that might clear this up?
Also, her tombstone has Rose Ann B. Davis for the name.
That info was furnished by my grandmother in 1945.
