Hello, Paul - Jesse Anderson is a family name on my mother's side and I would like to know if you have any information on the descendents of the children listed in your message below (Lawrence, James, George, William James and Jesse). My great-great grandfather, Jesse Anderson, was born about 1856 in NC to John L and Mary Anderson. I realize this is a lot later than your Jesse, but thought the name might have carried down.

No one in the family knew their names, only that they lived in VA. Then we found his parents names on his death record.

I am researching the family of James Anderson, b. 4 August 1765 in Glasgow. Father was John Anderson who married Margaret McLellan/McLelland. Other children of John and Margaret were: Janet m. John Farquhar, William, Martha, John, Thomas, Jean and Margaret. James Anderson married Janet McGrigor/McGregor, likely Aug 1796. Banns posted both in Paisley (ABBEY) and Kilmaronock. Possible parents of Janet are Charles McGrigor and Margaret Millar. If anyone has a connection, please contact me so we can exchange information. Erin (Anderson) Courtney

Hi, I have a Lydia Rankin b 1895 Va, married my gggrandfather Samuel Jacob Anderson b 1776 Va. Was wondering if they could be sisters? Mine came from Grayson Co. Va.ended in Hancock Co. Tn. That is who I would like to invite to dinner, Zada

Where were your Anderson's from originally. My Samuel Anderson was from PA as per census and he married Phoebe/Phoeba Clutts, she was kin folk to the Sailor's in Pike County Ohio. Samuel b: 1842 and died while living in Scioto Twp, Pike County prior to 1900 Census. Phoeba was livingin Scioto Twp in 1900 and widowed. Their children were, Jededia aka Jeddie, Jed J.C. Clarence J.) and Irving, Floyd, William, Eliza Dora who married a Brushart of Pike County. Do you think they could have been related to your Anderson's. I found a James and Nancy Anderson with a Son Samuel living in Marion Twp. the age would of been the same as my Samuel. But can't confirm this is his parents.

I would ask my gggrandfather, JOHN ANDERSON & wife ELIZABETH (RANKIN) to come visit and tell me about themselves, and their life in Pike Co, Ohio. Their dau, MARY C. married JAMES K.POLK GROOMS as his first wife, & they are my gr-grandparents. MARY d. at age 31 in 1879. POLK re-mar & moved to Christian & neighboring counties in Ill Shirley

My Thanksgiving guest would be either (or both) my grandfather Douglas Anderson. He always wanted to know about the family history and was skeptical anytime someone contacted him to say they were related. He died in 1994 and never knew that most of the people trying to contact him were truly part of the family. "Grandpa we have made contact with five other branches and are still growing. Oh and Grandpa please pass the mashed potatoes". The other would be my g-g-g-g-g-g-g grandfather John Anderson he is the farthest we have gone back to. I would to ask truly how many children he had. We know of ten but seem to be finding more. Who was is father and mother. Did he have any brothers or sisters? Grandparents? We just need to know about a 40-50 yrs gap then we could go back from 1741 back to 1649. Help us out. Also More turkey and please pass the green bean casserole. Check out my Anderson web site at _www.scottishandersons.com_ (http://www.scottishandersons.com) Happy thanksgiving to all Charles Anderson

My Anderson Thanksgiving guest would be my wife's GG-grandfather, Jacob Anderson. My questions would be where was he born, who were his parents, and was he the only one of the family to move from Scioto Co., Ohio, to Randolph Co., Illinois. Family records list Jacob's birth as 4 NOV 1785 in up-state New York while the 1850 census lists 1883/84 in Deleware. Jim

I would love to have my Grandfather Anderew J. Anderson put his feet under my table. I would love to know who his parents were and what happen to them. Family story has it that he was orphan and that his name was Andrew Jackson Columbus Anderson, would love to know how that came about. Would also like to know more about my grandmother Ellen Hibbert. Both died in Atlanta,Fulton Co., Ga. Gladys Edwards Pelosi Edwards,Giles,Howell,Sewell,Wagner,Webb, Whitaker,Tingle & many more families __________________________________ Yahoo!

Judy Anderson, I have a sister born Judith Anderson in Ohio. But I had to reply to your Thanks giving message. Our Anderson family was the same way. My great grandfather had brothers in the same town and never talked and never knew each others family. This must be an Anderson thing.

I would invite John Anderson : Pike and Franklin County Ohio 1905 to 1999 and his dad Jedediah (Jed) (J.C) Anderson:Pike and Franklin County Ohio 1867 to 1934 and his dad Samuel Anderson: Pike County Ohio 1842 to before 1900 I would ask Sam where in the world he and his son William Anderson are buried in Pike County. I would ask Same who his father and mother were and and where they came from: I would as Jed many questions about his life and I would tell my Grandpa John that I love and miss him so much.

Greetings - I am a new List member and a descendent of Jesse and Mary Ann Anderson. She was my great-great-grandmother. I would like to find out where she and her family moved to in GA after they left NC. And, any information on her parents. Also looking for burial sites of Mary Ann, Jesse and their parents. I will be glad to provide the information I have on her descendents (mainly through her daughter Lula - my great-grandmother). Best regards, Blanche Wallace

Thanksgiving dinner. I would like to invite my husband's grandfather, Grant Anderson, to Thanksgiving dinner so that I could ask him what happened in this family that would alienate everybody so. I have never known brothers that could live in the same town and their children never know that they had cousins, aunts and uncles that lived not far away!!! What happened? They all lived in Beaver County, PA. Anybody else researching Andersons in Beaver County? Thanks Judy Anderson

Hi all, Hoping to find some information on a Mary Lillian Anderson b 1917, Lexington, Missouri to a Emma Anderson, father unknown. Lillian married a Albert Avery Reagan, c 1933 in AZ, they moved to CA, then on to ID where Lillian died. Thanks, Marilyn Wilson in WA state. __________________________________ Yahoo!

I can't imagine that all the Andersons are from the South! Archaelaus Anderson was in Chester, Mass. active in the pre-Revolutionary War fighting. He moved there in 1761, had child or children and wife died. He remarried Sara, had more children and died in 1782 of smallpox at West Point. I am hoping my gggrandfather was a son, Samuel, who bought land from the Holland Land Company in Erie County, New York about 1808. Samuel was married to Jane Maurice/Morris and had children. Anybody out there with these names in their ancestry? Alice

Hi Kerry... The LDS records show that my GGrandfather, Martin, was the son of Garrison Anderson. I have a ton of info on Garrison. He married Shara Elizabeth Cates 13, Sept 1918, in Caldwell County KY. Harrison died May 1844 in Center TX. I have a copy of his will. I have my doubts about Garrison being my GGrandfather. It is one of those things, I can not prove it or disprove it. he indeed have a son Martin, but I am not sure it is the same one. There was MV Anderson(Martin Vanburen) that was a Texas Ranger and died in Vanzant Co. TX. I think that was Garrison's Martin. I noticed you do not have a Martin in your list of Andersons.
