Narrado por: Virtual Voice

The Ebook Edition of the Peppers Legacy II takes the family from 1815 with grandparent Henry Nelson Peppers. Peppers and Dranes families were seen in the Mississippi Censuses immediately after slavery was abolished. Peppers plantations, sharecropping, and land ownership were explored. Additionally, Jim Crow laws, Northern Migration, and the Civil Rights Era were explored.

Relatives were found and interviewed throughout the country. Searches revealed relatives from all branches of the family tree. African American Mississippi school record findings were discovered for Peppers and Dranes in 1892. Findings were made from Bible records, obituaries, pictures, stories that were passed down from generation-to-generation, cemeteries, Ancestry, and Family Search.

Many of these findings were made because of the hints that were generated from family interviews. Neighborhoods were combed via the Census to find relatives during the 1870 through 1940. Names were searched with odd spellings to find relatives. World War I and II records were searched to get a glimpse of what some relatives looked like. Life during today’s times were reveled through stories reminiscing of past experiences.

Pictures of “Then and Now Photo Gallery” depicts the farm community during depression years as compared to now. To cap it off, Garrett Grove Community family and friends were explored because Parlee lived there most of her life. The family and friends were viewed via obituaries, headstones, and pictures that were found. Paperback and Hardcover editions are available.
