I am searching for any information in finding my bloodline/roots-Johney & Mary allen Gradney.This is all the available data I can find and all returns back to the same source the 1930's historical cencous charts.My grandmother is listed widowed, and I have only found my Dad's Father Johney Gradney, my dad was Richard age 2@ the time of this 1930 Census in Calcasieu Parish.I have also located the same information in the 1920's Census with My Grandfather's named misspelled as (Johney Gratney).The only information I have is my Aunt Versey (Varsey ) was said we came from Chataidnier Island.Her sound-dex for this was Shantane???...please give any information,,,My daddy did say that our original name was ( Gradneigo ) that they dropped the "go" off of their names when told they were free to leave the Island.They were slaves my dad said on this Farmer..My dad said his daddy was from Salsavdor.. My Cousin Horace said they were Rice Farmer's. My skin tone is described as Latino...God Bless all of you.In my heart I have longed to know my people.Keep in mind I never meet my grandparent's Eva Gradney was born 1859 and her Son, my fathers dad Johney was born 1880.
