Hi Paul. Just a note to let you know I have group sheets for all the family except my grandparents and will probably have to go to court house and look for them in state records.
Since my father had one daughter and most of my brothers had girls do you want me to sent you sheets from their families.
As a side note my Father always told us that Mary Surratt of the Lincoln Assination Conspiracy was one of our kinfolks.
Well that's it for now and will start putting all this in the computer when I find all I can on my grandparents.

Hi Paul:
I talked with you once before about my Sarrett line. I find a few things that we don't agree on and I wanted to get them straightend out.
On William Harmon/Harper Sarrett's family [FG 461 I have a different list of children and places of burial. I have both William and Eugenia buried at the James Lee/John Kelly Family Cemetery with several of their children. I notice that you have a later date of burial than death on a couple of these and wondered if you had found where they had been moved. If so I would like to make the correction in my book.
I base my information on a cemetery book my sister located for me in Carthage Texas on the James Lee/John Kelly Family Cemetery [Old Brown - Lee Cem] in Uticia], Hinds Co. Mississippi. It has the following Sarretts listed:
Sarrett, William H. b. 05 Aug 1849 d. 02 Nov. 1892
Sarrett, Eugenia Folkes, w/o W. H. b. 3 Dec. 1852 d. 13 Jul 1930
Sarrett, Bennie Terrell, d/o W. H. & E. F. b. 06 Jan 1885 d. 13 Feb 1885
Sarrett, Harmon Folkes, s/o W. H. & E. F. b. 15 Feb 1878 d. 23 Mar 1879
Sarrett, Pattie E., d/o W. H. & E. F. b. 27 May 1892 d. 25 Jun 1893
Sarrett, H. J. b. not given d. 6 Oct 1908
Sarrett, Frances Brown, w/o H. J., d/o W. & M. Brown b. 20 dec. 1829 d. 15 Dec. 1891
Whitaker, Susan Theresa (Sarrett), w/o A.N., d/o H. J. and F. Sarrett b. 26 Oct 1851 d. 14 Feb. 1891
Sarrett, Salena Elizabeth, d/o H. J. & Frances b. 30 Jan 1854 d. 23 Jun 1855
Sarrett, Johnnie B., s/o H. J. & Frances b. 9 Feb. 1867 D. 17 Sept 1881
You have John B. bur. 20 Feb.1892 Utica Cem.? and Susannah Teresa bur. 18 Feb. 1892 were they moved?
     Ans: Nope!, just slip of finger 1891 not 1892
You have Selena Elizabeth bur. 25 Jun 1855 Utica Cem., was she moved? You have William Harmon/Harper bur. 2 Nov. 1892 Utica Cem., was he moved?
     Ans: See Above!
And you did not show Bennie Terrell, Harmon Folkes and Pattie E. If the others were moved why were these 3 not moved?
     Ans: Did't show, because they were never in a Census! See my Notes with this family!
I still don't know whether William was really William Harmon or William Harper. He had a son Harmon and he had a son William Harper who went by Harper. I have a copy of a letter by Harper Sarrett that mentions some additional siblings. It is as follows:
Jackson, Miss. July 23, 1930
Dear Henry:
I got your address from Harmon Benton when I saw him last, which was about the middle of July, 1928. Have been thinking of writing you ever since, but just kept putting it off from time to time. It has been a long, long time since I saw ou and I have often thought of and wondered what you were doing. I have been telegraphing for the last thirty years. Have been working for the people I am no employed by since 1918--12 years--Am married and have one child, a girl who will be 16 years old on September 6. Her name is Ruth and she's a moon-fixer.
Sister Adria is now Mrs. C.W. Hazlip and lives near Natchez. Ethel is Mrs. C.K. Leighton and Mable is Mrs. D. S. Nason and lives at Utica with Ethel. Fannie is Mrs. F.S. Eastburn and lives just outside of Memphis, Tenn. Orren lives here in Jackson. Vaughan died on July 26, 1928. Mama died on July 13 this year. Auntie and Uncle Tom Lee are living at the same old place in Utica. Aunt Mary and Uncle Ed Ford were at Winnfield, La., the last I heard from them............................... Your cousin,
W.H. Sarrett,
Harper Sarrett (signed)
Home address 209 Rose Street
Uncle Charlie lives in Vicksburg.

I haven't really had time to research since I last emailed you, but had located this information and thought I would send in on so we could straighten out the burial sites and William's family.

Paul,
I was just wanting to make some corrections on your website. My mother is Janice Elizabeth (Sarrett) PITTS,
daughter of Jessie Harris Burt Sarret, Sr. and Viola Carilla Hand. The parents of Jessie Harris Burt Sarrett are James Edgar Sarrett and Johnny Falkner Howard. The parents of James Edgar Sarrett are Harmon Jackson Sarrett and Frances Brown.
I am just giving you this information to guide you to how I am related. My mother and I were looking over the SFA website and noticed that there were mistakes that she remembers as a child. We just wanted to make some corrections.
These would be listed under the children of Jessie Harris Burt Sarrett.
Debra L. PITTS, E-Mail: dphonea@yahoo.com
Debbie,
Your late Uncle J. "Harris" B., Jr. SARRETT, Jr. (1933-2007 a74yrs) (your Mothers Brother) was one of our First Researcher/Submitter to the SFA Profile back in 1996.
I still have several of his E-Mail's in our Archives, and is the Major contrubutor on this Family.
Your Grandfather: Jessie Harris Burt Sarrett, Sr. can be seen at:
http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~prsjr/families/ms/hinds/fg0464.htm#8.5
We still have a lot of "Unknown, Not traced!" items. We would love any corrections/additions you may have on these families. Please send any corrections by E-Mail and after our review we will up-load said corrections.
None of this is written in "Concrete", we will change things that in the absence of absolute proof, circumstantial evidence, both legally and genealogically, has been allowed and the conclusion will be conceded when no other proof of the opposite is provided, which is both logical and reasonable and not opposed by any other evidence.
Do you know where your Grandparents were living in the 1930 Census, we can NOT seem to find them? See URL:

2nd E-Mail: Dated: Wednesday, March 11, 2009 5:14:38 AM
LOL...I know. My Uncle Harris was extremely close to us. Harris was in a nursing home up until the day of his death and my mother went every week, sometimes twice a week to make sure he had everything he needed and to wash his clothes. Harris was a huge part of my life for as far back as I can remember. I will share with you what I know.
Jessie Harris Burt Sarrett, Sr. was in Germany during the 1920 census and below is who I believe is Jessie and Viola in the 1930 census. If you look at the census record itself, you will see that Jena is actually Jessie. This was a mistake by the person who transcribed the record. Also, my mother said that her mother Viola was called "Olla" by Jessie and other members of the family. Andrey on this record is Audrey and James is also listed.
I believe that Uncle Johnny being born in December 1929 prevented him from being mentioned in the census because he was not born at the actual time of the census taking. Let me know what you think here.
1930 United States Federal Census Home in 1930: Jackson, Madison, Tennessee Jena Sarrett 26 Ola Sarrett 26 Andrey Sarrett 3 4/12 James Sarrett 1 4/12
Debra L. PITTS, E-Mail: dphonea@yahoo.com


Debbie,
I agree, when you look ant the 1930 Census, pg3a, Family Visit: 61 it's clear that Jena is actualy "Jesse" and Ola is actualy "Vola" I made the "correction" on Ancestrey.com Census search engine.
The reason Johnny Monroe SARRETT is not listed, is because he was not born until Dec 29, 1930 the Enumberator took this info. on Apr 3rd, 1930. This also why Andrey Louise SARRETT, was still listed in this census she died on her 4th Birthday May 1st 1930, 27 days after this Census. Which brings up another correction, why isn't Audrey death location in Jackson City, Madison Co., TN. NOT Jackson, Hinds Co., MS? and was her body taken back to Cedar Lawn Cemetery, Hinds Co., MS.? What was the "Cause of Death" for this 4 year little Girl?
You mentioned that the reason your Grandfater Jesse, is NOT listed in the US 1920 Census, was because he was in Germany, was he in the Army?, I can't find him in the First World War I, Registration Cards of 1917 & 1918, he would have only been 15 & 16yrs old, but would have been age 18yrs in the 1920 Census, what Branch, Unit was he in? WWI War was declared on Apr 2, 1917 and the Peace Treaty of Versailles, Paris, concluded in Jun 1919
If you have photos of Gravesite Lakewood Cemetery, we work with FAGrace.com, and would like to place Memorial & Headstone photos and this site.
If you have any Photos of these early SARRETT, we woud like to place on our Profile. ...prs
