Lavinia BUCE

Lavinia Buce was born about 1810 in Georgia, the daughter of John Buce and Rutha Smith. She married Drury Mote on 1829 in Meriwether County, Georgia. Drury was born about 1804 in Georgia, possibly the son of Ripley Mote. They lived in Russell County, Alabama in 1840 and by 1850 they were in Tallapoosa County. It is here that Drury must have died before 1860, as Lavinia is found living in Elmore County without him. It is not known when Lavinia died or where she's buried.
