Note*Benjamin Franklin Roberts, better known as 'Doc', was the seventh child born to John Iverson and Crissa Barnett Roberts. Doc was born in Benton County, Alabama on December 28, 1949. At the age of three, he moved with his parents to Attala County, Mississippi. He married Mary Ann Furr on June 22, 1873. Mary Ann was born October 20, 1849, and was the daughter of Daniel and Lizzie Brandon Furr of Layfayette County, Mississippi. Doc and Mary Ann had nine children. Doc moved with two of his brothers in covered wagons to Hollandale, Mississippi. On the way to Hollandale, they had to pass through Panther Creek Swamp, North of Yazoo City. They tried to cross during the time that the water was up, and they were stranded there for several weeks when one of the brothers became sick with malaria. After farming in the Hollandale area for a while, the three brothers moved their families to the Satartia area of Yazoo County. Although a farmer most of his life, Doc was elected as Justice of the Peace of Beat 1, Yazoo County (1905-1916). In 1916 he was elected to the State Legislature, where he was to serve two terms. He served on the following committees: Appropriations; Mississippi Levees; Public Printing; Penitentiary and Pensions. Doc was known for his fairness and justice. He was a member of the Primitive Baptist Church, Woodmen of the World, and the Columbian Woodmen. Benjamin Franklin Roberts died on May 1, 1928, and Mary Ann Furr Roberts died on July 11, 1936. They are buried in the Mt. Olive Cemetery.

Note*Uriah Stepp Roberts was the second child born to John Iverson and Crissa Barnett Roberts. He was born September 15, 1841, in Benton County, Alabama. He spent most of early life in Attala County, Mississippi. On March 15, 1861, at the age of 19, he enlisted in Captain L. D. Fletcher's Company (Minutemen of Attala). This company became Company I, 18th Regiment Mississippi Infantry. According to Company records, Private Roberts was a teamster and spent much time on detached service. The records show that he was in the CSA General Hospital from July 23, 1861, til September 2, 1861, with measles and flu. He was also hospitalized in Winchester Hopsital from September 10, 1862 til November 1862. No reason is given for this hospital stay. On July 2, 1863, at the Battle of Gettysburg, Private Roberts was taken prisoner and spent the remainder of the war in the Federal Prison at Fort Delaware. On June 11, 1865, he gave his Oath of Allegiance and was released from prison. When he was released, like all prisoners, he was released with no money and had to get hom the best way he could. Uriah made his way back to Mississippi and, on October 19, 1865, in Winston County, he married Aura Mahala Dodson, born July 28, 1848, the daughter of Dr. William Riley and Aurelia Kelly Dodson. Uriah and Aura were to have nine children. Uriah was very active in the politics of his home community and was elected to three terms as the representative from Leake County. He was also elected to the Constitutional Convention of 1890 and served for many years as the Doorkeeper of the House. Uriah Stepp died May 12, 1926, and Aura died August 4, 1911. They are both buried at Big Springs Baptist Church Cemetery in Leake County. This was their home church, and this family had donated the property for the church.
