Early Settlers OF GREENE CO. AL (A-B)
Who were the first families of Greene County, Alabama
who were there before 1832? One could own land in a county
without ever living there. The existence of a Will being probated
suggests that the deceased owned property there, but may have
never resided there. A marriage record suggests the home County
of the bride, but the groom may never have lived there. Some
marriages were never recorded. A resident in 1850 with children
b. AL may have been an early family, or just moved from a nearby
County. Snedecor's 1855-1856 County Directory indicated the year for every
citizen in Greene County "who settled in the county previous to 1824." This is
the beginning of a list of those who MAY have lived in this County before
December 31, 1830.
