To: Daryl Bruner: I have a GGGrandfather Franklin Anderson, lived in Owsley County, Kentucky (about 30 miles from Laurel County) from at least 1848 until 1898 except for a year around 1866 in Laurel County. Census says he was born Virginia in 1827. Family anecdotes say his father was James. Do you have children of James or anything further about Laurel Andersons. John W. Anderson jwanderson-97@worldnet.att.net

Re-post. Looking for siblings and parents of Nancy Anderson m. George Livesay about or after REv. War Ft. Bedford. Later to Grayson County, Virginia, then Hancock County, Tenn. Possible brother Peter Anderson same time same places. 1776 - 1825 Thanks Peggy

I am searching for anyone who may be researching ANDERSON/NESBITT connections in Kentucky in the late 1700's and early 1800's. Any direction or information would be greatly appeciated. Sincerely, David dandersn@c-zone.net

Hi Judy Sorry your Martha is another line. My Martha married William J. Johnson Born: 1867? Married: July 3, 1890 clay Co., In. Good Luck Eileen

Hi, Do You have any more info on who Amanda Melvina Rayborn's family was? My Lewis K. Anderson m. Sophia Curle and their daughter Nancy Elvira(?) Elvine(?) Anderson m. Henry C. Rayborn. Lewis Anderson was from Pulaski Co. My Mother always said there were two unrelated sets of Andersons in Casey Co. She died in 1964 and I can't remember much of what she told me. Thank You for your help. Jenny Oldham jloldham@vvm.com

Hello, I believe my Andersons may have been from Grayson Co., VA. I have a James Anderson b. 1786, moved to TN (county unknown) and then to Laurel Co., KY, then to Greene Co., IN where he died in 1860. He was married to Elizabeth Jones. Could there be a connection here? Daryl Bruner

I mistakenly did a reply without noticing it was going to the list. That was not my intent, but as a result, I have been offered the marriage documents for my Anderson ancestors whose wedding was in 1783 in Lincoln Co., KY. I am sorry for the mistake but very proud of the outcome. Jim Bryant E-Mail Address: jbryant1@elp.rr.com Web page: http://www.James.Bryant.net/

Ray, My Anderson ancestors were Col. William and Elizabeth Hinkson Anderson. They married in Lincoln Co., KY, 27 May, 1783. My info. says that there are court records that say William and his brothers were living at Ruddles Fort, Harrison Co., then Fayette Co., VA, Have you run across this line and, if so, where can I find info. on them, especially who his brothers were?

Ruth Sharp's query about William, Riley, and Asbury Anderson has me curious. I have listed this several times with no success but this time it seems to make more sense - to me anyway! My great grandmother was Martha J. Anderson b.ca 1834-1837 KY. She married George W. CRANE in 1853 in Greene Co., IN. Prior to this marriage, Martha is nowhere to be found. Martha and George named one son, John Asbury CRANE - George's father's name was John but where did they get Asbury? They are also believed to have had a son named William E. CRANE who died in 1866. I was told that a woman who researched this Anderson line many years ago said that Martha's father's name was Nelson Anderson. As I found an Ezekiel Anderson who came to Greene Co., IN from KY about the same time she showed up, I have always felt he was her father. This Ezekiel had a son named Nelson so I assumed that she had somehow made an error as this Nelson was born ca 1832. Ezekiel's parents were James Anderson and Elizabeth E. JONES. They also had a son named Riley Franklin Anderson. Both the names Riley and Franklin were common in the descendants of James Anderson and Elizabeth JONES. My grandfather's name was Thomas Franklin CRANE. I have always felt that he is somehow tied into this Anderson family. Between 1872 and 1875, my ggrandparents, Martha ANDERSON and George Crane moved their family to IL. Son, Horace Edgar CRANE was born in Windsor, IL August 25, 1875. The family was back in Greene Co., IN by the 1880 census. Why did they move to IL? Another son's name that I feel was unusual was George Hannigan CRANE. I have even looked at the possibility of Martha's mother being a HANNIGAN but have not been able to locate anything. Something else that has always seemed to mean something to me. Martha begged my grandfather (her son) not to join up for the war as she said she would not live to see him return so he did not join. Unfortunately, my history's not too good so I'm not sure which war it was but she died in 1898 before the war ended. Please let me know if any of this rings a bell. I've been looking off and on for over 20 years and this brick wall seems impossible to break through. Thanks for your help! Judy Hill

Hi cousins, The question has come up again about the "reply to" settings for the list, as it does periodically. I manage several smaller lists and there is no doubt that the preferred setting is to have replies go to the list. With a large list like this one, message traffic goes up considerably with replies to the list, and frequently the replies are "thank yous" and of other extraneous content, which drives membership down. However, as even I agree that replies to the list is preferrable, I am going to try it again. Please remember, that if traffic volume becomes troublesome to you, that you can always switch your subscription to the digest mode by unsubscribing from Anderson-l-request@rootsweb.com and subscribing to anderson-d-request@rootsweb.com. Also, please try to keep responses directed at the list such that they contain ANDERSON genealogical content, and direct any personal messages at your correspondent. Patrick J. Anderson http://members.aol.com/patander73/home.html 9654 Baltimore Avenue, Laurel, Maryland 20723

Dear friends, I have received 3 messages sent to me personally because I responded ON THE LIST to someone who posted information about William (Bloody Bill) Anderson. Dear moderator, I see this as a problem. Unless you just want people to post questions only and not help each other with the ANSWERS, the set up of this list means that the answers go ONLY to the poster unless the person replying sends his message to "ALL" instead of just replying. So people are sending me messages about Bloody Bill when they should be sending them to the person who wrote the original message OR to the list where we can all see them, speculate together and/or correct each other. I'm sorry I can't help those who have replied to me about Bloody Bill but I've only been researching the Andersons for a short time and know relatively little about them (so far). You probably know much more than I do. Please, just be aware of who wrote the part of the message that you want to respond to. It may NOT be the person who gets the message. I feel bad when someone sends something personally to me because of something I posted in reply to another person and I can't help them. Cynthia

In :"Lincoln Co.,Ky. Records" Vol. 1 lots of Andersons are mentioned. Does anyone know if they were related, and if so are they related to the Jonathan b. @1800 Ky. that married Elizabeth Pettyjohn 1822 in Pulaski Co.,Ky.?

The two families were pretty close related. All of them but to of the Anderson brothers moved to Mo. and Il. >> Where in MO were yours? I have an Anderson who left TN (after marriage to a Jackson) in September 1855. They were from Anderson Co, TN (near Knoxville).
