Shirley Booth-Byerly has been addicted to the study of genealogy since childhood; she loves the never-ending battle of discovering subtle links, possibilities, impossibilities, and misconceptions. In God, Ghosts, and Grannies, she tells the story of her family—where they came from and how they settled in South Alabama and Northwest Florida. Telling the events as literary nonfiction and taking genealogy to a new level, her story shares insights from six generations, six unique individuals, each viewing life from slightly skewed, rose-colored glasses. Shirley melds humor, drama, and a living experience with research, resources, and revelations. Gods, Ghosts, and Grannies narrates a story of people’s lives, their hopes, their dreams, and the realities they faced while struggling, working, and tending their homes; the same homes that convey tranquil memories, laughter, sunshine, and contentment—memories forever gone when no one is left to tell the stories or no one cares to listen.

The Douthit name is spelled many different ways. John Douthit, Sr. (1709-1784) emigrated from Ireland to southern Pennsylvania in 1724. Other Douthits, spelled various ways, had already emigrated. John Douthit, Sr. settled at Monocacy, Maryland, where he married Mary Scott in 1738. He moved to Anson County, North Carolina in 1750/1751, and later became a Moravian (members of this church settled nearby in 1753).
