I have been trying to follow my genealogy and have not been able to get back past the information that follows:  Russell McBride was born about 1795 in Western, NC, and died in Webster County, Mississippi.  Wife unknown.  Russell McBride fought in the war of 1812 with General Jackson at the Battle of New Orleans.  In 1815 the army went down the Natchez trace on the way to New Orleans.  Russell liked what he saw and came back with his family after the war to homestead on Big Black Creek and Natchez trace in Webster County, MS.  The homestead sold in the 1930's during the great depression.  The timber on the homestead was sold by the new owners for more money than the family received for the land.  Children of Russell McBride are:  i.

He left in 1912 before my dad was born. (Dale Duckworth) All we know is that he married again in Alabama, had a son.

Weatherbee, Piak--I need to find someone who could check your cemetery books/lists for a baby twin girl who was born and died on 12 August 1943. Parents were Charles W. Weatherbee & Janie Sue (Piak) Weatherbee.  Child was named Winnie Ray Weatherbee.  Her twin sister is looking to see if she was ever 'buried'.  At the time of this home birth, the parents lived in Lodi.  I have contacted the state department, but there is no record of a birth/death for this baby.  Hopefully someone could check the cemetery lists you have for Webster County, MS.  I have also contacted the Webster Public Library in Euporia regarding old newspapers on microfilm now, but they said the Webster County Courthouse had them in the Chancery Clerks Office.  I have contacted them, have not heard from them yet.  Please let me hear from you/someone soon.  Thank you ...  Debbie Edwards  foxeye@flash.net  ^10-01
