Hi Jill and the rest, Sorry, I had a typo for the Indian Census sites, it should have been /~maillist/. Try this URL for the long way: http://www.rootsweb.com/ then click on MAIL LISTS, then ETHNIC LISTS. After all of that, you should be at this URL or the short cut: http://www.rootsweb.com/~maillist/ethnic/index.html You can then subscribe to the list of your choice, or click on the the URL that is under your list or copy it for later use, and then go directly to the site you seek. Good luck, Bill Knotts, wknotts@cleveland.dfas.mil
Here is the URL: http://www.rootsweb.com/~mailist/ethnic/index.html That will get you to the Ethnic Group Lists on rootsweb. Look for Cherokee and Creek lists. With them you will find URL addresses for those groups. You can click them on and go directly to their sites.

I wish to correspond with anyone related or who knows about the John Milton Truitt & Delilah Victoria Walls Truitt of Newsite, Tallapoosa Co., AL. We are descendants, but I cannot find out who their parents were. John was born 1840 in Georgia and died in 1921 and buried in Bethel Cemetery in that county. Delilah was born 1843, died 1928 and also buried there. Their son, John Milton Truitt, II, was born 1875 and went to Texas, married and purchased property in Gotebo, OK where they raised 7 children, my husband being one of them. He, also, is John Truitt, b. 1928. Please write if you have any knowledge of this family. Nell in Florida
See information about Free Credit Application Below! My Multi-Million Dollar Publishing Company ONLY $149 Free Pre-Approved Merchant Account Application with Order!! To Start Your Business Out Right!! If you ever wanted "the easy way out" to make a lot of money with a business of your own....Here is the EASIEST WAY TO START! I'm writing this letter to let you in on something that'll blow you away. What I'm about to present is something I've never done before...something that I'llnever do again.... So PAY ATTENTION! For the past few years...I've have been running ads in newspapers & magazines, by direct mail, and throughout the internet. These ads were always small and very cheap... On these ads, we have been selling little manuals. These manuals have sold for anywhere between $10 to $99 each. We always ran different ads for each manual we were selling. I like selling information because NOBODY can put a price on it... ESPECIALLY when it is your own...The Sky is the Limit! Plus it is very cheap to reproduce How-To manuals. It costs between 40 cents and $3 to print the entire print manuals and around 35 cents to copy the manuals on disk. AND you can sell them for up to $99 each. That is one hell of a markup! These manuals tell you how to get a car with no money down and no credit...another one tells you how to avoid taxes by depositing income offshore...now you may not be interested in saving money by going offshore...but believe me....there are MILLIONS OF PEOPLE WHO DO...and they are willing to pay me to teach them!!! Well this is where the unbelievable offer comes in...I hope you are sitting down for this one...because this is a once in a lifetime chance for you. I do not know of an easier way to become financially independent...In fact THERE IS NO EASIER WAY!!! The next few paragraphs will reveal everything to you. I am willing to sell you my entire informational product line with FULL REPRINT RIGHTS and complete step-by-step instructions on how to start your mail order information business with very little money. Remember, these are PROVEN WINNERS. If you are stumped on something to sell or if you are having trouble writing a good ad,I have also included an entire book on disk to help you produce KILLER ads! This entire package which I call a Publishing Company in a Box will come on 1 CD containing over 2000 'Hot-Selling' Books, Reports, And Manuals ready to print and sell, Sell, SELL! It also will come with a signed letter giving YOU FULL REPRINT RIGHTS allowing you to sell them for as much as you want and however you want. You Can even sell the entire kit to someone else to resale on their own! You also receive copies of KILLER ads which can fill your mailbox with cash! I am not even going to ask you for any of the money either...What you make is yours to keep . In fact...you get to make a ton of money on these manuals for as long asyou wish...and you will never have to pay me another red cent in royalties! I am even going to print out and prepare our #1 selling report which contains the secrets of obtaining credit without a credit check and producing an offshore income without taxes so that you will be able to take it down to your local copy shop and be ready to sell it the same day you have received it. Watch out though - one individual is making $70,000 a month on this report alone! (Why - Because you can include a FREE offshore credit application for those with bad or no credit with this report and explode your mailbox with orders) Note:THIS APPLICATION IS INCLUDED! All I ask for is...$149 and I will include FREE Priority Mail Shipping! Yes, I said $149. There are no zeros missing. Plus if you order before Dec. 14th I will include 4 extra special bonuses... Bonus #1 - "Search Engine Magic" on disk. This report will shoot your web site up to the top of the search engine listings. Other web advertisers are sellingthis manual for $99 by itself - But I will give it to you for FREE with this package. Bonus #2 - The report "How to Make at least $1,600 a week online... Starting Now!" which is taking the internet by storm will be included absolutely FREE! Bonus #3 - I will include special details about a secret source for direct mail leads that can produce cash orders along with out KILLER ads. And another source will be given which allows you to advertise nationwide through newspapers to 70,000,000 readers for as low as 7 cents per word. Bonus #4 - I also will include a pre-approved application for a merchant account for your business benefit. Taking credit cards will increase your business up to 100%. The normal $195 application fee will be waved with this pre-approved application. But there is one drawback... I am sending this ad to 10,000 other people...and I will only allow 50 kits to be sold. It wouldn't make much sense if I sold this kit to 1,000 or 2,000 people...The market would be saturated with these same manuals...and I don't want to do that. To make sure that the people in this offer get the same results I have...ONLY 50 people can have it for $149.00! Chances are, I will get all 50 within a week's time. So if this is something you are interested in...RUSH me a check or money order for $149.00 TODAY to insure your future business. But, even if you decide to pass this up...Don't sweat it.

For only $149.00, I am going to let you have the easiest money you will ever make.

Mary: The state lines did not move. Go to Dollarhide and Thorndale's Census Map Guide. Check the maps for each census year. If your guy was born in GA in 1800, you'll find him in extreme East GA. I would guess in the upper portion. Use the Georgia Land Lottery Books, particularly the 1805 one. Use the list of Beards to see where people of that name lived in Georgia. THEN start using the county records of those counties. What you ALSO need to do is use the county records in the counties in ALABAMA where your people were. I am assuming the Montgomery, Macon, Lowndes Counties you refer to in your email were the Al counties, not the GA counties of the same name. No matter where you live, you SHOULD have a Mormon Family History Center somewhere nearby. You can borrow microfilm on both GA and AL from them and use them in your area. You don't need to go to AL or GA or even Salt Lake. Good Luck.

(Alternate spellings of this surname include:AMESON, AMISON, AMOSON, AMESSON, AMISSON, AMMERSON, AMBERSON, etc.) A group of family historians from all over the U.S.A., who have traced their AMASON/AMERSON family roots to the Edgecombe and Wilson County areas of North Carolina, are planning an AMASON/AMERSON Homecoming! The AMASON/AMERSON Family Homecoming and Heritage Quest will involve a research and information exchange, work session, and area orientation. The event will also provide a chance for local descendants of AMASON/AMERSON families from the Wilson County area to become acquainted with descendants of those AMASONs and AMERSONs who moved away. The goal of this work session and information exchange is to identify present day descendants of all AMASON and AMERSON families throughout the country, in preparation for a possible nationwide AMASON/AMERSON reunion in the near future. The AMASON/AMERSON Homecoming and Heritage Quest is scheduled from Friday evening, April 30 to the afternoon of May 2, 1999, to be held at the Pinetops, North Carolina Community Center. The cost per attendee will be reasonable and some meals will be included. Everyone is welcome!! All persons wishing to attend this event must return their registration before March 30, 1999.

Hello, I am looking for information on Jemima EVANS / EVINS born 1821 GA ( some say Elbert Co., GA) died after 1900 Tallapoosa Co., AL. She married 1836 Richard M. FAULK in Columbus, Muscogee Co., GA and they moved to Tallapoosa Co., AL in 1837. Family lore says she was Creek Indian. She may have been related to an EVANS family living near her on the 1850 Tallapoosa county, AL census. They are Walter R. EVANS and his wife Barbara REDDIN. Richard and Jemima Evans FAULK named one of their sons Walter R. FAULK. Is this EVANS family familiar to anyone? Thanks, Nancy Pressley
