Cousins,
I have missing ancestors in Blount and Tuscaloosa counties in
Alabama, and have found e-mail lists to be a help in connecting with
other cousins looking for the same ancestors. There was not a list
focusing on these areas, so I started them for us at rootsweb. The
lists will be for the area that is now, or used to be, included in
the county.
Some present-day counties other than Blount that were created
(totally, or in part) from land once included in Blount county are
Jefferson, Winston, Cullman, Marshall, Walker, and Etowah. The name
of the Blount county list is ALBLOUNT. To join, send SUBSCRIBE in
the message part of a post to ALBLOUNT-L-request(a)rootsweb.com (or
ALBLOUNT-D-request for the digest)
Some present-day counties other than Tuscaloosa that were created
(totally, or in part) from land once included in Tuscaloosa county
are Pickens, Lamar, Fayette, Walker, Jefferson, Bibb, Hale and
Greene. The name of the Tuscaloosa county list is ALTUSCAL. To
join, send SUBSCRIBE in the message part of a post to
