How would you know if your ancestors traveled with Wagon Trains? My ancestors came from North and South Carolina , in the early 1800s,traveling thru Georgia, crossing over to Alabama, one ancestor having a passport leaving Georgia into Alabama. They settled in Mississippi and some went on to Texas. In all my researching I have never heard mention of a Wagon Train. I really don't know how they traveled. I do know that some of the families that was with them in Georgia settled with them in Mississippi. My gr gr grandpapa J. W. Baxter and my gr gr grandmother Charity Elizabeth Williford were born 1808 in Georgia while traveling and settling in lower Alabama. My Woulards were from North Carolina and were one of the few white settlers that settled in Wayne County, Mississippi. (Eret and State Line) Benjamin F. Woulard born in 1804 and was on his way to Mississippi by1810. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks for your help. Sandra maiden name Waldrop Georgia

My mom always told me that the Baxters were English. However, our earliest Baxter, so far is James Marshall Baxter. He was born 1822 in Kentucky. Do you have names of siblings? ----- Original Message ----- From: <Ken.Clarke2@btinternet.com> To: <BAXTER-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Thursday, June 26, 2003 3:01 PM Subject: [BAXTER~] James Baxter Valet in London England 1843 > This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. > > Surnames: Baxter > Classification: Query > > Message Board URL: > > http://boards.ancestry.co.uk/mbexec/msg/5538/CkC.2ACIB/1360 > > Message Board Post: > > James William Baxter, a Valet, appears on the marriage certificate of his son James William Baxter who married Eliza Ann Winder in 1843 in St.Johns Waterloo, Surrey England.

Thank you for your kind email. I do not know her name. I assume she is on the Baxter list. Her email address was on the correction message I sent saying I was sorry. She wasn't pleased with me at all. Thank you again for your message. Sandra

Excuse me! I was the one who asked about the message. I did not complain. I merely asked what the message had to do with Baxters as the message did not contain the name Baxter anywhere. I am not in the habit of keeping emails after I have read them if they aren't in my particular line. Sandra took this as a personal affront to herself. That was not my intension. Lois in Auburn, CA

This is the message I sent and I made a mistake and I was called on the carpet for it. So I apologized. It has a lot to do with the Baxters. ljfjf@psyber.com thought I had confused the Baxter list.

HUH?   Date: 6/20/2003 1:15:12 AM Eastern Standard Time From: <A HREF="mailto:Jre31292">Jre31292</A> To: <A HREF="mailto:Scalawag1867">Scalawag1867</A> Scalawag1867: My great grandmother Mary Elizabeth Woulard ( daughter of Benjamin F.(Sr.)and Unity Williford Woulard of Eret and State Line Mississippi) ., was William Young Moss before he married Sabrina Should have been,Mary Elizabeth Woulard was William Young Moss's first wife before he married Sabrina. ( Sorry) Email from JRE31292-I have already apologized to her. How can anyone be expected to have input to a statement such as this?   I totally fail to understand what it can possibly be saying:  As written it appears you are stating that your great grandMOTHER Mary Elizabeth Woulard was aka William Young Moss before HE married Sabrina? Sorry Folks, I make a mistake , I left out married. Sorry, I know this had to be a shock to the Moss family, Not to mention the Woulard family. I should have typed in first wife or married. My mistake,one you only catch after you have clicked the key and it's on it's way. The Moss family had written down about William Young Moss's first marriage to my gr grandmother, but didn't know what happen to my her. As far as they knew she had died in child birth and I was trying to let them know she went on and entered into two more marriages and had four children. Also I was sending out names for others to connect with. I've had several emails from others on the lists trying to connect with names they were researching. Sorry if I blew your minds. William Young Moss was all man, he had two marriages and I think ten children who are scattered all over Washington County, Alabama. Sandra maiden name Waldrop Georgia Waldrops, Woulards, Baxters, Willifords, Masters, Lopers, Dearmans, Deas, Coopers, Longs, McGuires, Buckalews and more.
