When pioneers moved to new locations, they often traveled in groups and intermarried with those they traveled with on their journey. This was the case with early settlers in Shelby County, Alabama and created many intertwining relationships.
Shelby County Alabama Pioneers Volume I reveals the connections between the ACTONS, BAILEYS, CLOWER, CROWSON, LEES, NABORS, NELSON, ROBERTSON, and WILSON families of early Shelby County, AL.
