I am trying to find birth and death dates for RALPH DEAN JR "RJ". He was the son of RALPH WILLIAM DEAN, and BEULAH WESLEY "SIMMONS" DEAN. He is buried at Bartee cemetery in Huntsville, Alabama.

Please, if anyone has any knowledge of his dates, we need them to get a headstone with his dates engraved. Other children of RALPH and BEULAH are Billy Dean, Fayerene Dean, James W. Dean, and Netty Sue Dean. If there is anyone in Morgan county that remembers this family, and might know someone that has "RJ`S" dates...we would greatly appreciate the help

LANG/WALLACE
My grandparents WILLIAM HENRY LANG (1802-) and his wife REBECCA WALLACE (l810-) were married 30 Jan 1834 in Morgan County AL and the marriage license was also issued in Limestone County, AL. I have REBECCA's line but need the parents of WILLIAM HENRY I do know by the 1850 census that he was born in Scotland. I have only found a THOMAS LANG and his wife MARTHA in the 1820 census in Limestone County, AL
Could they be related? There are several indentures mentioning accounts with this family and naming the Elliot, Edmondson and Beaty families among others. There is nothing to give me more information. REBECCA died in Cherokee County, TX where she moved with her brothers. I have no idea of what happened to WILLIAM HENRY LANG. I would appreciate any help.

WILSON
My great grandmother's older brother, Benjamin Crawford Wilson resided in Hartselle, AL in 1922, and possibly as early as 1870s. He was born in the 1850s. He was married and I believe had children in the area but do not have names for any descendants. The family was originally from north west GA, Gordon and Walker counties but split up after the War Between the States. Some moved to AL and some to Chattanooga, TN. Ben's father's name was Miles Wilson, he had two brothers William and Obediah, 4 sisters, one who went by the name Fi but real name was Elizabeth Louisa. Would love to hear from someone who has knowledge of Benjamin Crawford Wilson.
