This Richmond Ramsey is a good possibility for a relative/community group of Jacob Ramsey, looking at Richmond's date of birth and where he is born. MS death certificates are available until about 1912 or so; I will order…"
Kate Steere replied to Jonnie Ramsey Brown's discussion Jacob & Leanna Ramsey of Hurricane Creek (Toomsuba), Lauderdale County, MS in the group Most Wanted! Ancestors Lost and Found"good morning Jonnie-
I found Richmond Ramsey in 1900, born in 1833, in NC, married to Hanna for 45 years, they had 13 children, 8 were still living in 1900. They lived in Daleville, Lauderdale County, MS."

Sonia L. Walker said… Hi Jonnie,
Nice to meet you. I published that back in '96 or '97 when we were still cranking the microfilm readers. What I did was pull up all the names of the slave holders from the 1860 Slave Schedule and then cross-referenced them to their location on the general population schedule. So, now that both schedules are available on ancestry, you can cross-reference them their. I should put it somewhere online since it's no longer available in print. Are there particular slave holders you're looking for? Check out my page at www.sankofa.tribalpages.com - Maybe we have common cousins. Most of my folks were in Calhoun Falls
