Hello, my name is Jim Chumney.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm descended from Pre-1830 Henry County Pioneers John A. Chumney, Milly Watts, Constantine Newton, Humphrey H. Pelham (Pellum), and possibly others.

I've been beating my head against a brick wall with John A. Chumney and Milly Watts for over ten years. I hope that learning more about their early Henry County neighbors and associates will lead to John's and Milly's origins. Along the way, I fell in love with early Henry County history and inhabitants during my three years researching the early pioneers (Steve Elliott's passion was contagious). Many of the pioneers are now old friends. I enjoy learning and discovering more about them.

My hope is that the Henry County Pioneers website will acquire a life of its own -- growing, improving, evolving, and delighting forever.

I found my great grandmother in the 1880 census in Gordon, Henry, Alabama along with her parents, James T Keys and Rebecca M Keys. It also list an older sister Frances. My great grandmother was Florence C Keys and mentioned her sister Francis often. It is believed Florence was kidnapped from an orphanage by Robert Lee Jenkins who forced her to marry him. Any info or advice woud be appreciated. I am a member of ancesty.com but can't seem to access the 1890 census for that area.

Thanks
Teresa
