    Notes:

    Julius Alford is the son of Jacob Alford and Frankie Seaborn. Jacob Alford is believed to be related to the Alford family of early North Carolina and Virginia. Going back in time, the parent of Jacob Alford is believed to be Lodwick Alford, John Alford, Sr, and then to William Alford born ca 1674. There is a Jacob Alford that received a land grant in Georgia for 450 acres in 1802. Sometime circa 1806 they moved to Louisiana and settled near Washington Parish in 1807. He is found in the 1812 in St. Tammany Parish on the tax list. Kathy Casagranda writes that he is a half brother to Needham Judge Alford. Also living in his household in 1850 is 22 year old Jasper Norris, a laborer born in Georgia. (1850 Census, page 27).

After some reorganization of counties, he lived in Franklin County and later moved to Cumberland County, where he was enumerated in 1790. Before 1795 he moved to Montgomery County, Georgia, where tax and land records show he lived until about 1806. By 1807 he was in Louisiana where his twin sons were born. Louisiana land records prove that he had settled on land in what was to become Washington Parish by December 1807. He was given headrights on 641.32 acres in what was to become Sec. 54 with the north boundary on what was to become the state line and the eastern boundary on the Bogue Chitto River. His father willed to him "the land and plantation whereon I now live lying on both sides Tarr River together with six cows and calves, six sows and pigs and one Breading (sic) mare to him and his heirs forever."
