Alli, I did a quick search on your names and found something that suggested Delphia's birth name was Willson or Wilson, then found North Carolina marriages to 1800: GROOM: Thomas Thompson BRIDE: Philadelphia Willson MARRIAGE: 29 Jan 1789 COUNTY: Rutherford Might be a clue in the North Carolina archives....

Thanks Kathie........ Not sure if that's them or not (there were a lot of them) but it could be......I will keep ahold of this. And look into it more ;) Thanks Alli :) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Forbes, Kathie" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Tuesday, December 04, 2012 6:21 AM Subject: [CherokeeGene] Delphia Thompson > Alli, I did a quick search on your names and found something that > suggested Delphia's birth name was Willson or Wilson, then found North > Carolina marriages to 1800: > GROOM: Thomas Thompson > BRIDE: Philadelphia Willson > MARRIAGE: 29 Jan 1789 > COUNTY: Rutherford > > Might be a clue in the North Carolina archives.... > > Kathie Forbes > > *********** > > =====*NOTICE THIS*===== > this is a generic list; and not topic specific because certain chatting is > required to do genealogy; and sort fact from fiction. > > Rude people will be moderated asap! > List archive > http://archiver.rootsweb.ancestry.com/th/index?list=cherokeegene > Dual admin. > Dan and Joyce > ------------------------------- > To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to > [email protected] with the word 'unsubscribe' without the > quotes in the subject and the body of the message

Wow! I hadn't thought of Philadelphia. Alli, this one really has some potential. I have a study guide to do for my final next week and after that, I think I shall have to play with your ancestors awhile. I do hope they'll have some fun stories to tell! Susan
