THOMAS BOLING WAS MY GREAT-GREAT GRANDFATHER.HE WAS BORN IN NC. IN 1803.MARRIED SARAH ? BORN INNC. IN 1801. I AM TRYING TO FIND WHO HIS FATHER WAS AND ANY INFORMATION ON HIS LINE PRIOR TO THAT. THOMAS AND SARAH HAD (6) CHILDREN. THEY WERE BURGESS (BURGIS), 1829; CONELIUS W., 1831 ; CHARITY,1833; MARY J., 1836; HYRAM G., 1839(MY GREAT GRANDFATHER) AND SARAH A., 1846.. I HAVE READ SOMEWHERE THAT THEY HAD A CHILD NAMED JOHN,BUT JOHN WAS BURGESS AND MARY'S SON BORN IN 1854. I HAVE QUITE A LOT ON THE LATER DECENDENTSO OF THOMAS. IF ANY ONE IS INTERESTED THEY CAN CONTACT ME AT kenb@grnco.net I WOULD APPRECIATE ANY HELP ANYONE CAN GIVE ME. KEN BOLING

Can anyone tell me if there is any Bolling Family Reunions coming up this year, if so, where & when?

Can anyone tell me if there is a Bolling Family Book that is printed and that it may be purchased, if anyone know of a Bolling book can you please let me know, I am interested in purchasing one, I know that the Bolling name is spelled different ways, which is okay.

Once again all, In light of Ernie's posting, I thought I'd throw my James Bowlin out there again. From the Patrick Co, VA death records, I have JAMES BOWLIN, b ca 1770, d 21 Jul 1861. His parents are listed as JAMES & SARAH BOWLIN. His birthplace is listed as Patrick Co, VA also, although at the time of his birth, the area would have been part of Henry Co, VA. He married ELIZABETH MORRISON in 1801 in Patrick Co, VA (her middle name may have been FRANCES). James and Elizabeth had several children, all of whose names I don't know. Two of the daughters were MARY and LUCY. Mary married an Atkins. Lucy never married, although she had two daughters. Two of his sons, I suspect, were WILLIAM GREEN and JAMES LUKE BOWLING. If anyone out there descends from this family, or has BOWLINGS with Patrick/Henry Co, VA connections, please contact me. Thanks!

Thanks, Leslie

Help! I am searching for Elizabeth Bowlin/Bolin, b. abt. 1810 in Patrick Co., VA, she was still living in 1880 in Patrick Co., VA but disappears after that date. She married in Smythe Co., VA to Paul Howell, b. abt. 1810 in Patrick Co., VA, s/o of Samuel and Lucy Witt Howell. On the "Consent to Marry" form...listed as Suretee is a William Bowlin/Bolin. Is this her father or brother? Elizabeth Bowlin/Bolin and Paul Howell had the following children: 1. Sarah A. Howell, b. 1842, m. Bluford McPeak 2. Louisa J. Howell, b. 1846, m. Henry Fain 3. Mary Ann Howell, b. 1847, m. George Robert Rogers 4. Emberzetta Howell, b. 1849, m. Samuel Light 5. Texas Howell, b. 1856, m. Peter R. Cruise 6. Permelia Howell, b. 1858 7.

Any help will be most appreciated. Rhonda Robertson rsr@mounet.com

I would like to get in touch with some descendants of Gabriel & Marcus/Marvel Bowling both of whom lived in Patrick Co, VA in the early to mid 1800's. I know some of the descendants went into WV (and probably further West). Please e-mail me at spuckett@bgsm.edu. Thanks! Shelby

I'm looking for information about JAMES BOWLIN, b. ca 1770, probably in VA. He married ELIZABETH MORRISON in Patrick Co, VA in 1801.

Lucy never married. Does anyone know anything about siblins for James b ca 1770? Does anyone have any information on Jame & Sarah? Any/all info welcome. Thanks! Shelby

I found a website while surfying... http://www.sunnydaze.com and I found it a wonderful resource tool.... Here is what some of it says: This gentleman spend 35 years researching and tracking his family. While tracking his family, he got side tracked and wrote 10 volumes of tombstone inscriptions in the Shenandoah Valley of VA and two large volumes of marriages in the Valley. Additionally, he collected a monumental amount of informatin on almost everyone sho's path he crossed. He became ill with Alzheimers and confined to a care facility, but, his daughter found and brought all his research to her house. There were over 100 boxes of research. She has placed her father's work on the internet: http://www.sunnydaze.com I have not personal interest in this website; however, I found it and thought it would be a great resource for all of us researchers and am sharing this information with you.... Thanks!!! kaite...

Hi, I need help,help & more help. I have been trying to find information on my Bolling line. My g g grandfather' name was William Lemuel Bolling. he was born in 1810 in N.Carolina.He married Jane Grissell(Grizzell) Oct.16,1838 in Greene County,Alabama. The name on the marriage license is spelled Lemuel Booling. They had at least two sons.One named Thomas & William Greene Bolling. I have no information on Thomas.William is my g grandfather.I know he was born July 23.1839 in Greene County Alabama. He married Margaret Manahan on July 9,1867 in Monroe County, Miss. I will greatly appericated any information. Thanks, JoAnn

I just happened to stumble upon Bowling information that may benefit many people. The internet address is: http://ourworld.compuserve.com/homepages/virginiafamilyresearch/bowling.htm Nadine

Some time back I wrote: I have D. Bettie Ann BOWLING b June 20, 1866 in TN d January 1, 1939, buried Sumner Co., TN, marrying John Peter SHIRRELL January 8, 1890 also in Sumner Co. Her date of death is new information to me, so I've not obtained her death certificate yet. Would this name be familiar to anyone else researching this line? Now I'm adding: ... Bettie Ann's death certificate lists her mother as Rosa Ann BOWLING (b in VA) - father unknown. Would anyone have a BOWLING marrying a Rosa Ann (Unknown) in TN in the 1800's? Thanks for any help!

Mike and JoAnn, You have confused the names. My husbands ancestor was Lemuel Wilkerson, who married Nancy Bowling (found spelled various ways). She was the daughter of Manning Bowling and Mary Mangham/Mangrum. Nancy was born about 1799 in GA. Her known siblings don't include a Lemuel, but could be a cousin. Are you aware of the Bolling Family Association? That should be a big help in researching this family. I have just become aware of it. They have a web site, if you are interested. Maybe we will make a connection at a later date.
