Lassiter family came to county in early 1830s
There appears to be more than one Lassiter family line that settled in Covington County. James Benjamin Lassiter and his family will be the one featured in today’s column.
A John Lassiter moved into the Conecuh River settlement during the early 1830s. He acquired from the government 40.13 acres of land in the Conecuh River Township of Covington County in 1836. John was born circa 1797 in North Carolina and was a veteran of the War of 1812. He was married to Nancy Ann Prescott who was born circa 1805 in South Carolina. After migrating to Conecuh County, they later resided in Covington County. At his death, John was buried in Florala.
John Jackson and Nancy Ann Lassiter reared the following children: James Benjamin, b. 1828, d. 1900, m. 1850 Mary Elizabeth White; Rebecca Ann, b. 1829; Wiley Berry, b. 1832; Ephraim P., b. 1834; Mary Ann, b. 1835; William D., b. 1837; Nancy Elizabeth, b. 1838; Priscilla Sarah, b. 1840; John Riley, b. 1841; Joseph M., b. 1843; Martha Ann, b. 1845; Julia Ann, b. 1847; Christian Angeline, b. 1849; and twins, Jesse and John Jackson Jr., b. 1851.
The oldest son, James Benjamin Lassiter, was born in 1828 in Autauga County, and he was in Covington County as early as 1850 when he married Mary Elizabeth White, who was born in 1832 in Opp, Alabama.
In 1855, James B. purchased from the government two tracts of land, 78.25 and 39.13 acres, in the Chapel Hill Township, which is in the southeast area of Covington County.
Two of his younger brothers bought government land in the county during the 1850s.
Ephraim P. Lassiter purchased 117.22 acres in 1855 in the Chapel Hill Township, and he homesteaded 159.56 acres in the same area in 1892. Wiley B. Lassiter acquired 119.95 acres also in 1855 in the Chapel Hill Township. Later in 1892, another brother, Joseph M. Lassiter homesteaded 159.24 acres in the same general area.
In the 1860 census, James B. Lassiter’s household was enumerated in the following manner. He was a farmer at 32 years of age, and his wife, Mary E., was 28. They had the following children at the time: Eliza, 8; Mary Ann, 4; Nancy Ann, 2 months; and a laborer, John Irvin, 16. Living near this family was that of John H. Lassiter, a farmer at 25 years of age and wife, Elfard A., 20, with children, James T., 3; and Lucinda A., 9 months. In 1867, James was listed as a registered voter in Covington County.
In the 1870 census for Covington, James B. Lassiter was listed as being 40 years old, and Mary E. at 38. Their children were Ezery, 18; Nancey, 10; Martha, 7; Sarah E., 5; Martha or Rachel, 4; and Susan, 6 months. James’s father, John Laseter, and family were enumerated near by. He was 73, and his wife, Nancy, 65. With them were Juley, 20; Angeline, 18; and John Jr., 16. There was also an M. Laseter, 39; and M. Johnson, 36; and Catherine, 6; recorded in this census.
