Marion Co., AL

Most of SULLENS/SULLINS individuals in Dee's database are from the family that settled in Marion County, AL and are descendants of Richard Sullins born about 1720 in the British Isle. Several pictures are available in these pages that may interest those familiar to the Marion County family.

Our SULLINS ancestor, James H. Sullins, moved to Marion County, Alabama from Boone County, Missouri in about 1828. The family brought their slaves and settled in an area approximately ten miles east of Hamilton. All Sullens/Sullins that appear in the three volume set "Cemetery Inscriptions of Marion County, Alabama", Stalcup and Stalcup, dated 1976 have been identified as descendants.

James H. Sullins was born in Tennessee in 1800. His parents, John Sullins and Frances Edwards, had departed from Halifax County, Virginia in the 1790s, moved to Rutherford Co., TN by 1803 and later moved to Boone County, Missouri before 1820.
