Patrick Mattox Wilcox Sasser Hallford

Welcome to a little corner of our world dedicated to preserving the memories of our ancestors! With many a tale, testament, or hymn packed in their knapsacks, our fathers immigrated here leaving traces of their footprint primarily along the Southern trails of Alabama, Florida, the Carolinas, and Georgia. And because of their faith in God, a vision, strong work ethic, and perseverance they built homes, birthed babies, and planted fields so that we could reap their bounty--a legacy or birthright, if you will--passed down to us and our children.

And locked within the treasure chest of a past (with its key often rusty or missing),  lie jewels of undiscovered mysteries and secrets. After prying open our treasure chest, Doris and I discovered a host of family revelations along with a wealth of new and old friendships. One gem we happened upon was the opportunity to become acquainted with our mother's cousin, Jean Anderson Wiles (tied in to us by both the Mattox and Wilcox lineage--my grandfather's niece), who afforded us with nuggets of knowledge in our genealogy quest.

So without further ado, we trust you enjoy your stay and encourage you to interact with us. Please feel free to share any personal stories, family recipes, cultural findings, heritage photographs, military contributions and achievements, or public/personal records. Drop us a line from time to time and do come back often as our website is always a work in progress.

God bless from the Hallford sisters,

Daughters of Muriel Wilcox and the late Bobby Hallford
