Timmons Cemetery, 89-1 Summary Report, page 63
In addition to managing his extensive land holdings, John Timmons served in various public capacities. The page image below from Pauline Jones Gandrud's ALABAMA RECORDS extract of the Madison County Chancery Court files shows that John Timmons and his neighbor Hughey Smith were appointed as Election Supervisors for the Ditto's Landing precinct in 1823. That same page shows a Robert Finch / Fench as being licensed to sell “spirituous liquor” in July of 1823. It is not known whether this Robert Finch was related to John Timmons' wife, Catharine Quay Finch.
