One of William Warren Randles and Elizabeth Hart Randles descendants sent me photographs of her aunts and uncles. Despite not knowing anything about them. Social Media had provided a venue for the families to meet each other.
For thousands of families in the East Florida Parishes have no knowledge of their family history in the 1800s. They have no idea where to begin and how to start researching their long lost family members and ancestors.
What little information you have about your ancestors or family can be vital to making the family history connections. When we see study local history and family history, we can learn so much about our own history. My mother often talked about our family being related to the Hart family, but she didn't know how we were related to them. The fact that she knew we were related to them was enough for me to get started conducting genealogy research on the Hart family of St. Helena.
Lynette Randles shared the photographs in this blog with me. During and after Reconstructions many family migrated to other parts of the United States. Green Hart moved to Texas and soon some of his descendants made their way to Phoenix, Arizona. George was born in 1834. In the United States Federal Census he was living in Ward 2, St. Helena, Louisiana. He was married to Celia Dudley, and they had thirteen. The images on the flyer are the children of William Warren Randles and Elizabeth Hart Randles.
