  BD-The Lammon Tree by Avis, Irene & Sadie Lammon. 1840 Dale Co. Alabama Census 1850 Dale Co. Alabama Census 1860 Dale Co. Alabama census. B&D-SLC #0924918 Dale Co. Alabama Cemeteries, p.4 BP-from Jewett Lammon Moore, via James Edward Moore, 6145 Old Bethel Road, Crestview, FL 32536 (1996) M -Jewett Lammon Moore, ibid. The Duncan Lammon family joined a great number of families in their area of North Carolina in the early 1830's forming a wagon train to seek new territory for themselves. They spent many days and nights on the rugged trails marked only by former travelers who had blazed the way. They spent about two years in what was known as the "Cherokee Nation," the northern section of Georgia and Alabama, and while enroute in this area in 1833, one eventful night they saw the stars fall, which was a phenomenon of that year. They met many friendly Indians, and once while spending a night in an Indian Camp a large pot of hominy was prepared for the travelers. The chief dipped a ladle full and ate first, then served others including the Lammon family. At many of the places where they camped were human bones, so they especially felt thankful for their safety and good treatment. At a junction on the westward route was a trail blazed south, so the Lammon Clan asked their 6-year-old daughter, Annie, to choose the trail for them to follow. She pointed south and after many days of hard travel they settled at a place which became Barnes X Roads, near Ozark, Alabama. Duncan and Ann Lammon are buried in Post Oak Methodist Cemetery between Ozark, Alabama, and Barnes X Roads." --Sadie, Irene, & Avis Lammon.
