Aloha, Everyone, from the Big Island of Hawai'i! I'm Sue Jones, a descendant of Sarah Compton of NJ. I know nothing about her, except that she m. David Baird in 1744 in Monmouth, NJ and their children were Reuben, Jacob, Mary John, David. Anybody know anything about her? Sue Jones Monk100@aol.com

I have not seen a copy of Comptonology, and would like comments from people who have. I have a sheet of paper from the late Lottie Compton McDowell that has information about John Compton. There is a notation that it is from p. 106 of Comptonology. This John Compton was in the Revolutionary War and it tells about his service and also appearing in Guilford Co, NC court in 1820. Does it tell in the book where this source of information can be located? If it is documented, would appreciate the source so I can follow it up. Thanks. Lorena in Indiana

Dear List, I have information on the descendants of Andrew Paul Compton and Loretta May (Morgan) Compton. However no information about the ancestors of Andrew Paul. Andrew was born about 1852 in IN and died 3 DEC 1929 in OK. Andrew had three siblings who settled in TX, William, Thomas, and Berniece. Anyone have information about Andrew or his siblings? Be happy to share data on Andrew's descendants. Earl

Dan, I am new to this list, and I am not familiar with who is included in your line or who you are referring to as your friend in Dallas, GA, but my G G Grandfather was the S.P. Compote you listed in the 1860 Pauling Co. GA census. He ws Simpson P. Compton and his daughter Mary Delane Compton was my G Grandmother. The J.D. you listed is Joel D. Compton, who is reported to be the possible Joel listed as a son of Hezekiah Crumpton (in his will) by The Compton Ancestry Home Page: http://members.xoom.com/desotojohn/ Click on Comptons I am researching. All the Comptons in the 1850 GA census are listed here, also. The E.M. Compton you listed is Eli Mack Compton.. (Listed as Eli M in 1850 and Mack in 1870 GA census) Tina R Achord; tag@eatel.net is a descendant of Joel D. Compton. I have not been able to make the connection to all these Comptons to determine who Simpson P Comptons parents were. If anyone can help with this information I would really appreciate hearing from you. Simpson was listed in the Van Zanat Co, TX census in 1880. I found no other Comptons in the 1880 Van Zanat Co, TX census. I have Simpson, Edwin, and Mack listed in 1870 Pauling Co GA if anyone needs this information.

i received this on another list in response to one of my DAVIS queries: a Zacchariah Davis in 1829, famnily of 6, possibly living in or near Youngs Township. There is a Chesley Davis in 1880, age 29, wife sarah 37, with Oliver Compton, 15, stepson. Chesley's location was south of Greenpond, maybe.

Mike and Dan, Thanks for sharing that lovely "Ancestors" poem. I plan to share it with some of my genealogy friends with your permission. evelyn windhaus

Dear Tammy: Do you want data on Crumpton/Compton or Ray? Please shoot me your snail mail address, and I'll send you some data. Your Ray family could be from same as Joan Cobb's Ray family that she has researched, and Joan is a subscriber to CRUMPTON list, and she will get a copy this. Her Ray family could have come from the Greenville County, SC also; same county as my Luke Crumpton, b. abt 1760. Do you know the father of my Luke? A good candidate is John Crumpton/ Compton of Laurens County.

Hi All: I'm new to this list and looking forward to exchanging data. My Great Grandpa is Louis Marshall Compton b 28 Aug 1851, Hoods Mill, Jackson Parish, LA. He d 20 Aug 1924 Hoods Mill, LA. Married to Frances Minerva Hearne b 27 Jan 1856, Atlanta, GA., d May 1932, both bured at Zoar Cemetery, Jackson Parish. Louis M. was a minister in the Methodist Church at Hoods Mill & Chatham, LA. and at Gilmer, Texas. His father was John C. Compton who marr Rachel Delia Campbell. I really need to find John C. He didn't live long, died after 2nd child was born. His widow married Rev. Asbury Fletcher Hearne and had a large family. Is there anyone who knows this family? Thanks, Shirley McCowin in Or.

I am looking for ancestors/descendants of my wife's Compton family: So far I have the following information: Allen Compton, b 1836, d. 1910 probably in near Newton, IA, m. Elizabeth Marshall 1. Nathan Compton 1. Dora Ann Compton 1. Sylvester Marshall Compton, b. 18 Nov 1866 near Kilduff, IA, d. 28 Feb 1920 Kirksville, MO, d. Luella Belle Smith 2.

Rex Raymond Reed 4. Julie Jean Reed, b. 15 Mar 1948 Ames, IA, m. Gregg Kinney-me! I have my wife's Comptons on the web at <http://www.greggkinney.com/compton.htm>. The site includes a searchable register report of all of the known descendants of Allen Compton. On the GENDEX this past week I located a Nathan Compton, b. 1800 SC, d. 1855 Henry Co, IN. Among his 11children was an Allen Compton. Although the author didn't have additional detail, I found it interesting that the Nathan Compton had a son named Allen Compton and my wife has an ancestor named Allen Compton who has a son named Nathan A. Compton. I have not had an opportunity to check out the connection further, but would certainly appreciate any help with a connection between the Henry Co, IN Compton family and my wife's family.
