AUSTIN I am trying to find out who my maternal great-greatgrandparents were. Their last name was AUSTIN and I think that they lived somewhere near Syracuse, NewYork around 1895. They had at least three daughters: Anna, Elizabeth and Estelle. Estelle was my greatgrandmother, she married Camille Sharrow (from Canada) and they had one child: ArisLEAH Estelle Sharrow. Arisleah�s mother died following childbirth and Arisleah was raised by her grandmother Austin but I am having trouble trying to find her in NY census reports. Arisleah was born in Syracuse in Feb. 1895. I would greatly appreciate it if anyone can help me with my Austin family. Thank you - Joyce

John Austin born England or Ireland. First appeared Adams Co. Oh. !800-1802 signing petition, A Thomas Austin also signs. John built first mill on Eagle Creek, Brown Co. Oh. Wife named Elizabeth. They may be connected to the O'Dell and Prather-Prater families of Maryland. John's son Joseph born in Md. My ancestor Nelson, born Va circa 1790. Nelson can not be found in Ohio after 1850. I believe he may have moved west with one of his younger daughters. Children of Nelson Austin and Mary (Polly) Grinnard John born 1824 My ancestor) Joseph born 1827 Elizabeth born 1817 Female-1819 Martha S. born 1835 Louisa born 1837 Mary born 1841 Nelson served in War of 1812 Would like to exchange info with anyone searching this family.

Just "dug" this site up! <A HREF="http://www.mnopltd.com/jean/">Jean's Maine Genealogy Page</A> (http://www.mnopltd.com/jean/) This might pertain to you if you are searching for someone who either married or died (what a combination) in parts of Maine around Ellsworth between the dates of October 24, 1851 through December 29, 1865. Some spelling is a little off but found most dates to be fairly accurate. Great for a "Eureka" or two and for fun. Make sure you read the forward and explanations first! Krissy [email protected]

Hello Don, noted your name popped up again..talked to you from IL..now back in TX...TXJEAN

Don, I have recieved NO responses. They were from Rockingham Co. VA. At some point they moved to Page Co. VA. In 1900 I found them living in Allenghany Co. VA while I was looking for my husband's family. The 1st John H. Austin Sr. I found in 1860 in Rockingham Co. with wife Haldah Garner and children: John H., James, Mary, Richard, and Betty. Then I found the 2nd John H. Austin in Allenghany Co. VA in 1900 with wife Mary Jane Pence and children: John H., George Harry, Arthur David, Richard Otis, Chelaus, Tollie Edward, and Teresa. Severeral are buried in Page Co. so I believe they didn't move to far away. From the Obit. for Mary Jane and John H. Sr. Tollie Edward lived in Portsmouth VA. in 1947. The only one I know for sure is Arthur David this is my grandfather he moved to Illinois he married Iola Fink in Alton IL. They moved to Harrisburg IL where Arthur died in a coal mine cave in in 1931. Any help would be greatly welcomed. Debbie >Debbie, > >Have you gotten any response to your post on Rootsweb?

Hello, My great great grand father was John Wesley Austin 9/1825-1900 mar Eliza Fant 7/5/1820-4/8/1910 she mar 1st John Stevens. All of these were living in Union District, SC. John and Eliza had Harriet 5/10/1854-3/19/1930 mar William B Lawson, John Wesley 3/6/1856-8/22/1926 mar. Victoria Tucker, Julia 2/7/1860-5/20/1930 mar. Ralston Loranzo Prince, Dolly 1/2/1862-2/20/1917 mar. John Riley O'Shields, Joseph abt. 1866-? , Willie abt. 1868-?. I know that John was living with a Fant family in 1850 at the age of 25. The only Austin estate paper listed in Union is of a Samuel Austin, but it did not list names of heirs. If anyone could lead me in some direction I would greatly appreciate it. I live here in Laurens, SC so I have access to a lot of old records. I just can't seem to be able to place John with any of them. Thank You Raymond Leslie Prince [email protected]

Can anyone help me in my search for information on Morris Austin. Any information on him, his descendents and/or anscestors would be appreciated. Here is what I know specifically about him: He married Letitia McClenachan on October 7, 1797 in Augusta County, Virginia. I know that he was in Virginia in 1795, because I've found a letter that he wrote disputing a court-martial. Thanks, Paul Huffman [email protected]

Debbie, Have you gotten any response to your post on Rootsweb? I have no record of this family that I can locate. What state are these people from? If you could give me a little more info I will check my records again. Thanks Don Challis

Hi, John had a son named John Jr. and he also had a daughter named Mary who was born in New Kent Co VA before they moved to Lunenburg Co VA. Mary married Jacob Webb. Rachel [email protected]

I am also curious about AUSTIN, William, John, George. I have a William, John, George AUSTIN located in Washington Co, NY earlier Charlotte Co. in the early 1800's. Would this family be the same? William Austin married Jane Quackenbush in 1835 Salem, NY. Is this family any relation to the AUSTIN family from Sheffield, CT? Anthony AUSTIN the first generation in America (1700).

Austin, John born c. 1690-1790 England (?) who married Hannah Love. (Note Love families resided in Lunenburg Co., VA early and are associated with the Dillard families and Laniers). Later the Dillards (Thomas Dillard lines) marry and wind up in Lauderdale Co., AL (florence) marrying into the De La Hunte/Delahunty/Dillahunty (French Huguenot line)...The Dillahunty married Viziers in TN (Davidson Co.) and moved to Lauderdale/Lawrence Co., AL ....if anyone connects to these let me know. John had sons, Stephen, Richardson, Valentine, Joseph and possibly some daus.(names unknown). Resided in Brunswick Co., VA in 1744 and 1745 (tax rolls). Then in Lunenburg Co., VA and part became Halifax and Pittsylvania Co, VA later by 1767 (the latter) I believe. Thanks TXJEAN Richardson Austin may have married an Ann Heard (???) in VA...this line may have gone to GA. Joseph managed the estate and inherited the land in VA from his father, John Austin who died by 1759 Lunenburg Co., VA. Peron Alday is associated with the Richard/son Austin and Isaac Vernon probably sons-in-law. Majer Washington is also mentioned in one report. Thanks TXJEAN

YOU NEED TO GET IN TOUCH WITH DAVID AUSTIN 2607 WEST kENNTUCKY AVE MIDLAND , TX 79701 HE IS ALSO WORKING ON THE AUSTIN LINE THAT COMES FROM GREENVILLE SC AREA IN PARTICULAR CHISOM AND VINCENT AUSTIN

To TX Jean and other AUSTINs John Calhoun Austin b 1831 TN, had relatives by marriage: LOTT, EDWARDS, SIMMONS, HENDERSON, FRANCIS, STEPHENS. etc. His family was originally from SC upcountry, (?Fairfield, Greenville, Laurens) Not found yet. But looking in 1800 and before. His parents were in TN in 1831 and perhaps in 1862. We are near to the TN line here so there were many crossing across the TN River and up to TN. I have searched the AUSTIN families all around. I have not proved out all the other No. AL AUSTINS yet, but have tons of notes. I need to get them all online and get some help. I just have not been working on AUSTINS lately. I had great breakthroughs on the HENDERSONS this week and expect to find them in Laurens Co, SC before 1800. Thanks for your interest. Helen

Rebecca m 2nd William Clarke. Biddeford, ME, removed to Eastport, ME. In Genealogical Dictionary of Maine and New Hampshire--Sarah Moore had a son, Ichabod, b 12 Aug. 1712, his father was Ichabod Austin who later married Susanna Young of York. Ichabod may have been the one who drowned at Gloucester 17 Mar. 1734/35. Many years ago I received from researchers in Maine, a handwritten and hard to read account with a note at the beginning, saying that it was copied from "Old Records of Biddeford, Maine". That handwritten account listed 2 daughters: Rebecca and Susanna and a possible son,Ichabod born to Ichabod Austin and Elizabeth Billings. Also recorded were the marriages of both girls--to Rumery and Maddocks. I have had professional researchers trying to find those "OLD' records. They say it is likely legitimate, so I include Rebecca in those Maine Austins. Does anyone have an opinion or a clue as to the "OLD" records and where they could be found? Thank you Ruth Curtis
