Re this post: Posting information on a Givens Will

Will of Maggie Chance Givens: Notes


Please find this information (posted in 2011, originally) at this alternate web site:   https://pegmarie.wordpress.com/2011/05/08/will-of-maggie-chance-givens-notes/

 Who was Maggie Chance?
She was married in about 1890 to John Hezekiah "Bud" Givens.  John Hezekiah was the son of John Witherspoon Givens, and the grandson of Robert Givens and Sarah "Sally" Stewart.
Maggie was, to the best of my knowledge the mother of Lila Mae Givens, Daisy Givens, Val Wright Givens, Gladys Givens, Johnie Givens and Jamems Monroe Givens.  This family lived in Laurel Hill in what is now Okaloosa County.
Some of Maggie's grandchildren includes: the Weatherly kids, Frances and Florence Givens, George Williamson, and maybe some more children that I haven't found yet!
Her siblings were Charles and Annie Chance.  Her father was James M. Chance who died in 1919 in Florala, Alabama.  Her mother, Mary Elizabeth Barrow, is buried in Okaloosa County.
