From http://www.autreyheritage.com/autrybook/page0028.jsp:
II. Cornelius Autrey, son of Absalom Autrey and Lucy, was born in 1770 in North Carolina and d. 1842 in Perry County, AL. H to, on 69-1801 in Rutherford County, NC. to Nancy Eaves. Others say he married a Powers. They had 16 children.
He and his family migrated to the Mississippi Territory with his father in the early 1800's. By the early 1820s Cornelius Autrey was living in Perry County, Alabama. According to one source, his youngest son, James Henry Autrey, was born in Perry County in 1820. On 23 February 1824 Cornelius Autrey gave his daughter, Alsira, permission to marry Bird Griffin in that county. On 1 December 1826 Cornelius, along with Jesse Green, Ezekial Pricert and John Wiley were appointed by the Court to inventory and appraise the property of Thomas Norris. Thomas Norris was the father-in-law of Cornelius son, Absalom. Cornelius Autrey and his family had moved back to Benton County, Alabama in 1832. Charity, one of his daughters, married Thomas Jefferson Downing on 8 November 1832 in Benton County. On 2 August 1833 Cornelius Autrey bought 152.36 acres of land in St. Clair County from his brother for $300.00. This land was in Section 13, Township 14, Ranges West, the property that Enoch, James and George Autrey had inherited from their father in 1824. He sold 80 acres of land in Section 25, Township 14, Range 5 East to Thomas J. McGehee for $250.00 on 25 May 1846. This land was in St. Clam County. In 1847 Cornelius Autrey went to Perry County, Alabama to see his children. While on the visit he died. It is not known whether he was buried in Perry County or St. Clair County, Alabama. There are conflicting stories.2

Alvira [AUTRY] GRIFFIN - siblings?
bobbyjay (View posts) Posted: 1 Dec 1998 12:00PM GMT
Classification: Query
Surnames: AUTRY, AUTREY, EAVES, PRICE
I am trying to connect my Alsista AUTREY (b. c1804 NC) to the family of Cornelius AUTRY/AUTREY and Nancy EAVES. Alsista does not appear on any published genealogy that I have seen, but I suspect she was a sister to your Alvira (a.k.a. Alsira, Elvira) AUTRY.
From about 1799-1807, the PRICE's (as well as the AUTREY's) lived in Rutherford Co., NC. The PRICE's then apparently lived in Georgia before moving to Alabama in the early 1820s. *Alsistis ORTREE* (sic) md. Starling Ruffin PRICE, 1 Feb 1823 in Bibb Co., AL. By 1830, they had settled in neighboring Perry County.
What information do you have on Alvira's parents and possible siblings? Thanks!
