**********************

These are my cousins, I am working on a family tree for this line of Fords, who came from Perry County (Oak Grove, Perryville and Felix).

Census records list the parents of Ms. Renona as John and Ola Ford, of Oak Grove (Perry County). The Fords also farmed the Morgan Place in Valley Creek alongside my cousins, the
Green(es). Census records also show Ms. Renona was born between 1913-1915, and record siblings: Jessie, Annie, Mary and Fred.

I was told John Ford later married Roberta Green(e), daughter of Sol and Lucy Callens Green(e).

Some of these Fords moved to Birmingham (Jefferson County).

I will be posting more on the family of John Ford soon, please contact me if you would like to add to this entry or have any more information.

Blessings, Lynn
