FIELDS, Samuel – Looking for more information on the parents of Samuel (ca 1790-1869) and Mary/Polly Johnston/e (ca 1792-1860) Fields. Both Samuel and Mary J. Fields are buried at Samuel Fields Cemetery near Brookside, Jefferson County, Alabama. Samuel Fields’ parents were said to be Moses and Betsy Ann Fields as mentioned in Alabama Records by Jones & Gandrud. The will of Betsy Ann Fields is included in ‘Alabama Records’ and names her children as Moses (wife Jane Sharp); Isaac; Lettie (husband Edward G. Sharp); Anna (husband Thomas Huchingson/Hutchinson); Mary/Polly (husband George Matthews). Samuel and Issac Fields along with George Matthews are named as some of the first settlers of what was to become Jefferson County, Alabama. For some reason these genealogists/Jones and Gandrud were convinced that Moses was the name of the father and husband of this group. I am looking for any form of document or reference other than legend that names or refers to Moses and Betsy Ann Fields (it would be prior to 1829). Will glady share information. Please contact Claudia Fields Kraemer 2213 Lariat Trail, Frisco, Texas 75034 or [email protected] [posted December 8, 2004]

FORD, Pettus – Need information about Pettus Ford and his children, who are believed to have settled in Birmingham. I have traced the Ford family origins to Perryville (Perry County) and parts of Dallas County, Alabama. I have traced the beginning of the Ford family to Caroline Ford (b. 1825) who had 15-18 children born in slavery. One of Caroline’s children is Paul Ford (b. 1853). Paul Ford married a Laura RADFORD on Feb. 8, 1878. When Laura died, Paul married a woman named Lucretia (b. 1857). There were 10 children born between both of these marriages. The children are: Allie D, Arthur, Bettie, Columbus, Genie, Willie, Joe, Jesse, Millie and Johnie D. Paul Ford died in 1920. Willie and Genie moved to the Birmingham area. Other Fords of this line may be Hal, Bubba and Sylvester (female). I believe Johnie Ford moved to Dallas County. This is where it gets confusing. In Dallas County (Selma, Summerfield, Valley Creek) the Ford family marries into both the MARTIN and GREEN(E) families. The Martins and the Green(e)s are cousins to each other. The Green(e)brothers (Sol, Nathan, Herman) may have resided in Jefferson County in the 1920’s but returned to Dallas County. From this lineage, I am researching a PETTUS Ford. The only mention I have of Pettus Ford is the social security application of my grandfather and his marriage license, other than that I can find no records. My grandfather, Robert, is also known as Spicey and Bud was born between 1900-1910 in Dallas County, AL. As a child, Robert went by the last name of Martin, his mother’s maiden name then later changed his last name to Ford. PETTUS Ford was a farm laborer who had other children named Herman, Annie and possibly children residing in the Birmingham area. Another possible link is Callie MARTIN(mulatto)of Selma, Alabama. In a 1910 census of Selma, Callie Martin is listed as a widow. Her birth year is 1874. Her children are Mary Ella, Herman, Robert, and Hubbard. A man named Earnest (b. 1867) is also residing in her home. Mary Ella is the name of my great-grandmother, whose son is Robert, my grandfather. Herman is known to be the brother of Robert. They are said to share the same father–the mysterious Pettus Ford. Any help would be much appreciated. Please contact Lynn Mari at [email protected] [posted May 16, 2008]
