FIELDER surname

William Fielder married at least 2 times. He had 26 or 27 children. I am confused on which child belongs to which mother. (Vashiti Martin Fielder and Elizabeth Huggins Fielder)

This William Fielder was born in Tennessee according to one of the census records and lived in Lauderdale County, Alabama.

Notes: Larry Sharp WB4DMW@aol.com Birmingham, AL (working) list of William's children, based on info copied from his bible by my aunt Etoile Young. The info from the bible list 26 off-spring. Some are listed with initals, some are listed with dates of birth and nicknames. I have also included info from your email, the 1850-1910 census and info compiled by Mable Faulkner Williams, granddaughter of Samuel Fielder and my mother, Jewel Young Sharp, granddaughter of James Buchanan Fielder

1. Sam South disappeared mysteriously and never returned.

2. One unknown female married W. A. Ridgeway and moved to Baxter Co.,

AR, near Buford (Hackett Co)

3. My mother states that "some died young", "more than one set of twins"

and 26-27 children

4. The bible did not mention Veshi

5. the bible did not list William D.,Thomas F., Robert Bruce, Norah

Stephen, Louisa, Susan, Catherine, Taylor or Mary-C.E and Ethel are

listed separately

6. Some other confusing notes about who is the oldest and halfsisters

7. The bible is currently tied up in an estate dispute

8. Francis and Harriet McCorkle are sisters

9. I have visited the Fielder Cementary on TN hiway 69, near the AL state-

line. Most of the old graves are unmarked

As stated above, this list is combination of several sources. I am sure it contains some errors. Its just my way of working on the puzzle. If you have any questions, additions or problems with it, please advise. I am open for any info regarding William's family. If you want a photocopy of my sources, please advise.
