Hi. I'm hoping to make contact with someone interested in the
Roderick B. (Odie/Ottie)
McCoy family. I have detailed and documented information about R. B.'s siblings and ancestors and look forward sharing and exchanging info.
R. B. married twice. He and 2nd wife Mary J. (Thomas)
McCoy are in
Jackson Co, by 1878 and appear on the 1880 census. His children who seem to remain in the area include:
1) James H. McCoy, who married Sarah A. Bryant and had children John
Luther (married
Fay S.), Frazier
Anderson (married Mamie
Baker), Claude G., and Vera Berith (married John A. Snodgrass)
McCoy2) Jesse Franklin (Frank)
McCoy, who married 1st
Fannie J. York (d. young) and 2nd Mary Etta
Webb. Frank and Mary Etta had children Charlie (married Ina C. Clator),
Ola Mae (married J. H. Wininger), Claude Sr. (married
Flora Jewel Norris), Ethel L., Fred M., Willie Mae (married Jeffie Matthews?), Jesse Franklin, Jr., Lawrence N. (married 1st Mary
Kirby, 2nd Janie
York), and Ernest P. (married Ruby
Roberts)
McCoy.
3) Lucy
McCoy who married J. L. Winter.
I have a court record that indicates other descendant siblings of R. B. (Odie/Ottie)
McCoy were with this family until at least 1890, but can find little or nothing about them after that date. He apparently died about 1886, and is definitely deceased by the date of the 1890 court record.
Another of R. B.'s daughters, Betty
McCoy, married J. M. Jolly. This family left
Jackson Co., AL, and was in
Cobert Co., AL by 1910.
After his death, R. B.'s 2nd wife, Mary J. (Thomas)
McCoy married David
Hayes 3 May, 1896 in
Jackson Co., AL. She and her
Hayes children, Mary Ella and Charles, are in Hunstville,
Madison Co., AL by the 1900 and 1910 census records, though she is again widowed by the 1900 record.
