1. BRASFIELD, Sarah was born about 1786 (daughter of BRASFIELD, Reuben and UNKNOWN, Margaret); died after 1810. Notes:
In a desperate attempt to find my Benjamin Parker family in St. Helena Par,
LA in the early 1800 I have been running down any remote clues I can pursue.
Have looked for forty years with little success. I recently came across
your website and I must complement you on a great job. So far I have not
gotten up the courage to post my many lines but I admire people who do.
One question about the William Parker listed on your site. You show that
"Lenny Brasfield" married William F. Parker sometime before 1810 and that
Sarah Brasfield, her older sister, married Prestwood Smith 3 Mar 1806 in
Wilkinson Co., MS. Just yesterday I looked again at the Parker marriage I
have and in my Wilkinson Co., MS Marriages records folder I have "William
Parker to Sarah Brasfield September 24, 1809" The marriage of Julian Parker
and Malinda Day (Aug 28, 1837 is listed here also as well as the marriages of
three of their sons.
I know this is a minor detail in your large database but I don't want to go
off on a wild goose chase if my records are wrong. Could you, when you have
time, look at this and let me know if I have made a mistake?
Sincerely,

1805 State Census
Wilkinson County, Mississippi
Transcribed and Submitted by Virginia Ewing
Transcriber Notes:
At the time this census was taken, Wilkinson county was much larger than it is
today, taking in what is now Amite Co., and parts of other counties as well. Amite County was formed in 1809, four years after this particular census.
Parts of the paper missing and some names smeared. I have put .. for parts
that I can not read or am unsure of. I know some names are wrong. Some of them make no sense at all, but I tried to decipher them letter by letter.
The microfilm is available for rental through any LDS Family History Center for $3.25 cents plus tax for the first month.
