My father was born 1927 in Hazelhurst. His parents were Frederick Wroten WEEMS (1896 - 1978 from Pike Co)and Jessie McCullar (McCullough? 1906- 1989
from Okolona, Ark). I'm trying to find info on his grandparents (Leroy WEEMS and Mary M. HAYMAN). All I know is that these two were married in 1891.Thanks, Steven

I am looking for information on a Maude Helen BYRD. I do not know her maiden name. She had 5 children that were born in Hazelhurst, Mississippi. She moved
to California with her husband and children in the late 1960's - early 1970's. She passed away in Stockton, California in 1994 or 1995.
