Laura,
My Ggrandfather was Marcus Sylvester Cabiness, b. abt 1840, Coosa Co.,
AL. He had a brother named Lafayette. Their father was John W Cabiness
b.? in VA or GA. That is as far back as I know. John W Cabiness married
Mary Moore McDonald d/o John Sherrill McDonald and Elizabeth Lane?.
Is it possible that my Lafayette was named after yours? What are your
dates and locations?
Thanks,
Kerry Moore
