1. Re: [MSJEFFER-L] Cemeteries [1]
Janette, The best of all books on Jefferson County cemeteries are those which were published by Ann Beckerson Brown in 1995/1996. These also include quite a bit of marriage data and other information of interest. These two books cover about all the cemeteries that have been found in Jefferson County. There is an obit in today's Natchez Democrat (www.natchezdemocrat.com) for a Precy Malcom Stephens, b. Apr 6, 1934/d. June 4, 2003. His parents were Nolan Precy Stephens and Lessie Irene Ivey Stephens.

Sam, I checked Ann Brown's "Jefferson County, MS Cemeteries, Etc., Vol. 1" and didn't find any of the names below listed in the survey of Rodney Cemetery. However, my guess would be, judging from the pictures I have of the cemetery taken a long time ago, that some of the tombstones are probably missing or unreadable. However, from Ann's very excellent book, I do find the following passage concerning Dr. Savage: "Notice: Drs. SAVAGE and New have associated themselves in the practice of their professi

7. Re: [MSJEFFER-L] Cemetery [1]
Speaking of cemeteries in Jefferson county I was there exactly a year ago and wanted to look at the cemetery at Rodney after many wrong turns and asking a lot of people we found Rodney but, you are right, this is not the time of the year to go check out over grown cemeteries in the woods. A resident of Rodney told me she had just killed a rattler in the ditch by her yard and the Rodney Cemetery was well known for its snakes. That was all it took for me to give up on the idea of looking for dead ancestors

Hi Janette, We are not related to the Stephens family, but my husband had many ancestors in Jefferson County. I have spent many hours reading old Jefferson County newspapers. His great aunt, Jennie "May" Nevels married in 1891 to Mr. Lee Pritchard. Lee was the son of Robert Alexander Pritchard and Jerusha Stephens. Jerusha was a daughter of Daniel H. Stephens. Then on another line, one of his Turnage relatives married in 1886 to Joanna Stephens. She was the daughter of Joseph Stephens. Joseph

Hi folks! I know it's been a while since I posted, but with my Mom dying last month and my grandchildren moving out of my house and back to their Mother's, it has been very hectic around here! I have started on the 1857 volume of the Darden Diary. It is one tragedy after another that year. There was a small pox epidemic AND a Scarlet fever outbreak at the same time along with one of the coldest winters on record! They had a heavy snowfall in Fayette on April 12! Worst winter in years!

A duel occured in 1810 between Daniel Beasley, the sheriff of Jefferson County, and Samuel Frye, a lawyer. According to a letter from Samuel's brother, the duel occurred "opposite the mouth of Coles Creek a great distance from Port Gibson." Beasley lived in old Greenville. I know that men often fought across the river on the Vidalia sandbar. Can anyone tell me where "opposite mouth of Coles Creek" is? Thanks, Sue Moore
