Looking at the 1900 U.S. Federal Census for Cusseta, I found Joana listed as Head of a Household and in this household was Ida 16 born May, 1884 (daughter) and Seabon (Son) 13 born July 1886.  Joana’s year of birth was Dec 1840 She is 59 years old and now widowed.

Based on this info, Joana came from Georgia.   She reported that she was the mother of 13 and 9 were living

Seabon appears to be the last sibling. born around July, 1886, and born two years after his older sister, Ida.  At this point, and so far, my record search has shown me no information on Seabon.  I do not know if he married; had children; died sometime after age 13, or anything.  All searches on Seabon Peters (other than the 1900 Census, have returned void)

UPDATE:   Evidence found in an 1922 Anniston City Directory shows Seabon at age 36 years old, working as a laborer and residing at  212 South Leighton Avenue, Anniston, Alabama;  and at last I was able to locate evidence that Seabon Peters did marry.  This was based on a death record of Cora Peters.  This record shows her spouse as Seabon Peters.   So, Seabon’s wife’s name was Cora.   Cora died April 18, 1924 in Anniston, Calhoun County, Alabama and she was born the same year as Seabon.

Around the same time Seabon was employed and living in Anniston, Alabama, his nephew Doyle was also there too, working as a Porter.

Beyond Seabon’s residence in Anniston, Alabama, I have found nothing further, except for many many listings in Florida for a Seabon Peters, who could have been a descendant — perhaps a grandson.   It has been very difficult to ascertain what actually happened to Seabon after Ophelia’s death.  But, I will note here, that there are numerous listings for “Seabon Peters” in the Florida area.  Perhaps those remaining members of his family, migrated from Anniston to Florida where they remained.

We know that Seabon, Jr. died very young, which would almost end Seabon’s lineage.   But, perhaps the key will lie with Hallie, who may have had a son with Seabon, Jr. before his death and named him after his father.  Or perhaps Rachel had a child and named him after her father.

Charlotte “Lottie” Benford Peters parents were Gabriel Benford and Narciss (Benford?).    She was Preston Peters’ Wife.  On October 27, 1878, she married Preston Peters in Opelika, Lee County, Alabama.

[Based on Information in someone else’s family tree (the Gray family tree), Lottie and Preston had the following children:   Lottie Peters, Moses S. Peters  (1885-August 11, 1956), and Cora Peters (1895-September 20, 1953).

In the 1910 Census, I found “Lottie” (50)  living in Opelika, Alabama with her father, Gabriel (74) and mother Narcis (62).  There were also two (2) grandsons in this home, Wilbert and Chester.  I am not certain if they were children of hers or not.  At this time, Lottie stated on the Census report that she was widowed, which means that Preston probably died.

At the age of 79, Lottie died around August 8, 1939 in Opelika, Lee County, Alabama].
