Carroll Kinnon McCroan inter­viewed Fannie Davis McCroan (1882 — 1969) some­time about 1968 and recorded the con­versa­tion on tape. About 2005 or 2006, Ken McCroan, Jr., con­verted the taped conversation to MP3 format. (This is a rather large file; so, be patient.)

Fannie’s Southern accent comes from south­west Georgia. Carroll’s comes from the pan­handle of Florida.

Later this page may have more informa­tion on the follow­ing families:

The informa­tion will include PDF files, like those above, and scanned images of things that seem interest­ing, such as Barney Laster’s family Bible or the Con­federate military records of Barney Laster and Joseph E. Morris.* Eventually there may be a search­able data­base, but don’t hold your breath.

Apologies

  1. Keith first became inter­ested in genealogy while he was still in high school in 1977 (before the mini­series “Roots”), when he got pos­ses­sion of Barney’s family Bible. For a few years after that, he had time to spend research­ing the family history, but eventually other duties began to inter­fere. So, the informa­tion hasn’t been up-to-date for a number of years now.
  2. We deliberately omit data about the most recent genera­tions, because we think it may be a bad idea to pub­lish too much informa­tion about people on the web — even some­thing as seem­ingly innocu­ous as a person’s mother’s maiden name. Also, some people feel that it infringes on their privacy.
 *  Barney Laster and Joseph E. Morris were Keith’s great-great-grandfathers. It is said that Henry J.J. McCroan and Amos Thigpen (also G-G grandfathers) were Con­federate veterans, but Keith has no records to prove it.
