Message Board Post:
Hi I saw your old posting on ancestry.com and was wondering if you could help me out. I beleive Walter is my GG Grandfather. I know my G Grandfather was a James Colbert of either Maryland or Virginia and through census searches the only one who fits is the son of Walter in the 1930 census, which shows him as being 18. My G Grandmother tells my Grandmother what is in the past is in the past, so we know nothing of her husband or if they were ever married. I do know that the children did not take the Colbert name but took Elliott, my G Grandmother's last name. I would like to know if you have anything on this James Colbert to possibly give me a lead since he is the only James Colbert that has matched up so far.
Thanks

I am looking for a James Colbert, from the early 1900's. He and Lillian Elliott, March 6, 1919, had two children, Mary Joan August 26, 1932 and Harold "Butch." The children go by the last name of Elliott. I do not know if these two ever married. They will probably be found in either Virginia or Maryland.

I was wondering if you have any slave records of your family.
I am an African-American researcher and I am extremely curious about what you may have. My great great great grandfather was George Colbert and he was sold to Ga but originated from Va. I pray that you have information or slave records that would help me in my search. I appreciate all you have shared.

Looking forward to hearing from you.
