ALFORD. My Grandandmother
was Mammie ALFORD b. 1886 in Washington Co., GA. Moved to Baldwin Co.
after 1900. She married George Washington LINDSEY in 1912 in Dooly
Co. She died in 1914. She had two children Louise b. 1906 d. 1990 in Dooly
Co. and Bonnonie Jefferson b.10 Aug. 1909 d. 4 Nov. 1982. (my grandfather) from

knows anything about the REAL father. I'm looking for any info on this
family (marriages, death, census, etc.) Thank You.
