Rachel Rebecca Lammon Thompson told Elmer Burns Lammon that her "daddy used to get mad at someone's putting an "s" to the name Lammon. She said that Duncan McColskey Lammons and his descendants use the "s" because Mamie wanted to use it. There were some people in Hartford named Sammons, and Mamie liked the sound of it and thought Lammon sounded better with an "s" on it."

"The historical record roll of Co. E, 15th Alabama Infantry Regiment shows James Lammon, Private, enlisted in the Confederate Army August 3, 1862 at Newton (formerly Westville) Alabama. He was honorably discharged from the service on the 13th day of April 1865. The James Lammon family moved from the Barnes X Roads in 1893 to settle in Geneva County. They spent the first year in what was known as the Kinsaul Community and in 1894 they bought land and moved to Hartford, where they cleared land and farmed. Later they organized a milling company and operated sawmills, planer mills, a variety shop, gristmill and a cotton gin. They were a busy family and attended church about two miles from their home, the Pondtown Methodist, until the town grew enough to build and support one, which was only a few years."

"The first time real tragedy struck in the family was in 1902 when their 20-year-old son, James Olin, died suddenly. He is buried in the Pondtown Methodist Church Cemetery. In 1906 a beautiful two-story home was built of choice timbers saved over the years for this purpose. The outstanding feature of the home was the wide veranda all around the house with decorative woodwork and banisters. Another tragedy of the family was when the home and practically all of the furnishings were completely destroyed by fire March 31, 1911."

The following note from Elmer Burns Lammon:

In corresponding with Wanda Gale Stafford, a descendant of Frances Caroline Lammon, she showed James Lammon as having the middle name Daniel. I wrote and told her that I had never known that he had a middle name and asked her for the source. She replied, "I received a handwritten copy of Snell and Lammons family information. The Snell outline was of my gg gf Wilburn and his wives (2) and children and the Lammons family Info page reads like this:

Smith side of family - From Lammons family records. Grandmother Mary Ann Rebecca Smith. (then lists the family info)

Mary Ann "Mollie" was the second wife (my gg gm) of Wilburn Snell. Mollie's mother was Francis Caroline Lammons that married James F. Smith. Your ancestor's name was listed with both names that I gave you.

I was told it was taken from a family bible. The bible was held by one of my gg aunt's, but I do not know who got it when she died. The document was very yellow and old looking. I made a copy and mailed the original back to its
owner."

As this source is as good or better than most of my sources, I will use it.

James married Mary Jane Barnes on 29 Dec 1870 in Barnes Cross Roads, Dale, Alabama. Mary (daughter of Edward Barnes and Sarah Francis Dean) was born on 28 Nov 1850. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
