Description: This is the first book in a collection of works I have called “Albert Paris Missey Compendium”. In 1893 Albert studied to become a doctor and practiced medicine his entire life. However, in 1908 he heeded the calling of the ministry and was ordained in the Methodist Episcopal Church South. In 1913 he began keeping a journal covering various dates from September 1913 to November 25, 1942. 

I have scanned the actual original journal entries in Albert’s handwriting and after Albert's original entries I have italicized the readable transcription. In each italicized transcription are numbers in brackets [ ] indicating each local named individual in Albert's journal has been assigned a [number] in brackets. 

After each transcription, my name in bold letters indicating my comments and elucidations are to follow. This was done to keep track of the people he mentions. These numerical [ ] brackets correspond to the same numbered individual in his previous entries. As always, birth surnames for females are in caps, (BOLD) and in parenthesis. 

Some basic research, which I have been able to compile over the last 40 years, is included in these numerical reports. Though only the basic information is included here, extensive details about each individual’s family can be obtained from the author, Floyd Thomas Pratt at floydpratt59@gmail.com or floydpratt59@yagoo.com or by writing to the address is below.  

I hope you enjoy my efforts and all those before me who have sacrificed their time, money and energy in pursuit of ancestral truth and knowledge with the hope of preserving these treasures for future generations.
