The only reason I know he does it is the fact that we lie within the same lineage. I did just receive more updated information on our lineage from Col. Jimmy Armstrong that I have not had the pleasure of reading over as it's 28 pages long. I will be looking over it this weekend while visiting my brother. I know there was some information in there I hadn't seen yet on John Armstrong and Eleanor Gilchrist. I will see what he has turned up and let you know when I get back on Sunday. I had taken a break from research the past few months just from burnout, but have to get the brain in gear to start up again. Let me see what I can find out and if the new stuff Jim has sent over doesn't turn up anything new I will contact William and see what he has. Have a good weekend!! Dan

He has a brother by the name of John Armstrong who was married to an Eleanor Gilchrist. The information I have come across regarding him is as follows: John Armstrong - born: March 8, 1724 in Lanercost, Cumberland Co., England marriage 1: Eleanor Gilchrist - about 1740 in Fannett, Cumberland Co., PA marriage 2: Eleanor Wallace - 1750 in Tuscarora Valley, Cumberland Co., PA. died: June 10, 1772 in Tuscarora Valley, Cumberland Co., PA. Outside of this information I know nothing of any descendants from there. As for his brothers and sisters, it goes as such: William Armstrong - born: abt. 1705 in Kirkandrews Parish, Cumberland Co., England. marriage: Sarah ???? abt. 1719 in England. died: 1769 in Cumberland Co., PA. Margaret Armstrong - born: October 6, 1706 in Kirkandrews Parish, Cumberland Co., England. marriage: unknown died: unknown Robert Armstrong - born: November 9, 1712 in Kirkandrews Parish, Cumberland Co., England. marriage: Elizabeth Bryers on June 14, 1736 in Kirkandrews Parish, Cumberland Co., England. died: unknown Adam Abraham Armstrong - born: February 7, 1715 in Kirkandrews Parish, Cumberland Co., England. marriage 1: Margaret Nixon on Dec. 3, 1731 in Bewcastle, Cumberland Co., England. marriage 2: Elizabeth Olifer on Dec. 9, 1741 (place is being disputed based upon marriage dates). died: May 20, 1779 in Peters, Franklin Co., PA. Their parents are Adam Armstrong and Mary Foster. Adam was born 1685 in Cumbria, England, and Mary was born 1685, also, in Cumberland Co., England. They were married on November 20, 1705 in Kirkandrews Parish, Cumberland Co., England. Adam died 1749 in Canonbie, Cumberland Co., England, and Mary's death date is unknown. Let me know if their is any information you may be able to provide on John and Eleanor, as I can go back further on this Armstrong line. For your knowledge, this information has come via these sources: William Armstrong, Col. Jimmy Dee Armstrong, myself, as well as numerous hours of census and document research. William is an Armstrong Family Researcher who spends much time looking for any and or all information pertaining to the Armstrong heritage. I hope to hear from you soon!! Dan Armstrong

If you're not familiar with the work of Steven Wright, he's the guy who once said: "I woke up one morning and all of my stuff had been stolen...and replaced by exact duplicates." Here are some of his gems: - I'd kill for a Nobel Peace Prize. - Borrow money from pessimists - they don't expect it back. - Half the people you know are below average. - 99% of lawyers give the rest a bad name. - 42.7% of all statistics are made up on the spot. - A conscience is what hurts when all your other parts feel so good. - A clear conscience is usually the sign of a bad memory. - If you want the rainbow, you gotta put up with the rain. - All those who believe in psychokinesis, raise my hand. - The early bird may get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese. (Think about it some more.) - I almost had a psychic girlfriend but she left me before we met. - OK, so what's the speed of dark? - How do you tell when you're out of invisible ink? - If everything seems to be going well, you have obviously overlooked something. - Depression is merely anger without enthusiasm. - When everything is coming your way, you're in the wrong lane. - Ambition is a poor excuse for not having enough sense to be lazy. - Hard work pays off in the future, laziness pays off now. - I intend to live forever - so far, so good. - If Barbie is so popular, why do you have to buy her friends? - Eagles may soar, but weasels don't get sucked into jet engines. - What happens if you get scared half to death twice? - My mechanic told me, "I couldn't repair your brakes, so I made your horn louder." - Why do psychics have to ask you for your name? - If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence that you tried. - A conclusion is the place where you got tired of thinking. - Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it. - The hardness of the butter is proportional to the softness of the bread. - To steal ideas from one person is plagiarism; to steal from many is research. - The problem with the gene pool is that there is no lifeguard. - The sooner you fall behind, the more time you'll have to catch up. - The colder the x-ray table, the more of your body is required to be on it. - Everyone has a photographic memory, some just don't have film.

Unfortunately, Mom died before we wrote down all her family lore, and I am slowly piecing things together. You say you have info on the family. I have 2 major lines of inquiry: 1) The lineage of James, who came here from Ireland; and 2) The lineage of the Youngs (my gggm is Mary Young)--my mother married a Young from Virginia of the Michael Cadet Young line out of Isle of Wight County. He had 2 brothers who came to America, but went to North Carolina (I think--I have been trying to locate a copy of the Bristol Youngs in Virginia. Somehow, my grandfather Young and my mother's Young relatives established that we were related, and I would like to trace this. By the way, thanks for spelling out the family tree.

The US Genweb is engaged in an outstanding online census project, including the transcription of County Census records. These offer the additional advantage of listing members of a given household, regardless of surname. You will find that these are also indexed by Surname. Select the state of interest at the US Genweb Census project at: http://www.us-census.org/states/ Even if you don't find the name for which you are looking, you will find it worthwhile to have a look, and perhaps volunteer for transcriptions.

Hello again For those of you who really want to obtain copies of Military Records, either Pension or Service records as they are both valuable sources of information, actual copies of the census sheets, DAR, SAR, passenger ship records and other information, here is a site that is well worth checking out. I have used this person many times to get copies of the records, but there is a charge. He will look for the information and tell you if he finds it, then he will make the copies and send them to you after receiving payment. I know it costs, but there is no charge if he does not find the records. I do not personally know this person and have never met him except through e-mails but have never been disappointed in the service. I have also been able to get copies of the complete files for Revolutionary War and Civil War files, PLUS copies of DAR applications and files of my ancestors. His E-mail address is: DC Rsearch@aol.com The site is: <A HREF="http://www.impactvr.com/DCresearch/">DC Research National Archives Genealogy and Civil War Research Service</A> Happy searching. Jan

It appears the Fremont Library now requires one to have a library card in order to access the site. This is such a disappointment as it was a great research tool to be able to access the census and I always thought libraries provided free access to the public. Fremont is not one of those. Maybe it would only take applying for a library card to be able to use their database. <A HREF="http://www.netlibrary.com/SIGNUP.ASP">netLibrary - Create An Account</A> However, I have found another site for a library that appears to be even better as it has several links to other sites as well. <A HREF="http://www.newberry.org/nl/genealogy/L3gpublications.html">The Newberry Library</A> . Please do not hold me responsible if it does not work. I only try to pass along what I find. Good luck. Jan
