I am also trying to locate the family of my Great Grandmother Alzada Castleberry born abt
1840 from Talbot,Ga area, she went by Alley. She was married to an unknown Hawkins and
then William H Gipson. I have an article that was done on her son Henry E Gipson.( I
have attached that article) The article states she was from the Talbot Ga area.
After she was married and widowed she moved to Chambers Al area around 1865. I have found
her in the 1880 census in Wood Shop, Al and found a census in the 1860 showing her with
the last name of Castleberry with two children with the names of two of her children whom
was fathered by Hawkins, William and John Tillman, but the census shows last name of
Castleberry and she was 22. John Tillman Hawkins (son) and Alley Castleberry Hawkins
Gipson both died in Lovington, Lea Co., New Mexico.
I was reading some of the posts about the Castleberry's being short. My Grandmother
was very short. I have attached a photo of her. Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.
