Re: Name order help
In Response To: Name order help ()

Well I think you have a point. also in my first post I said my grgradmother was Sallie Winfrey Darden .the correction is Sallie Winfrey. Darden is my other grgrandmother's last name . Now I can continue about the name order. I was told by my now deceased uncle that her name was Sallie Lucy Winfrey. of course the only sallie L.Winfrey in Georgia so far that have poped up is European. of course I am sure my Sallie was a slave being born in 1842 so there would be no regular census on her. I have been told she was a mulatto.
so since I have read by some of the experts that if the owener had a favorite slave then some times they would name the slaves them selves and often would give them their name SO that is something you might want to add to your thoughts if you did not already know it.
thanks for the reply every thought is worth investigating.
