I'm not sure if Samuel B. is a grandson of Joseph and Theodesia (Hooker) Covey. Will do some more checking. I found in the Woodlawn (Village) Cemetery in Newfane, Windham Co., VT the following: Covey Philetus 1831-1916 Prusha 1829-1914 John H. 1859-1936 Ida L. 1856-1932 [Philetus is a son of Joseph, Jr and Lucy (Pierce) Covey (grandson of Joseph & Theodesia Covey)]. Prussia was a Thomas from Chesterfield, NH. John H. is their son.] Enos Thomas died Dec 1 1881 ae 80 y 6 m Martha wife of Enos Thomas died Mar 16 1891 87 yrs [Enos and Martha are the parents of Prussia (Thomas) Covey] Lucius P. son of P.C. & P.W.

I think *anything* COVEY is of interest to the group, so, here's a message I just received today. Thanks, Debbi. We all work on different lines off and on. That's why I think surname mailing lists are a big plus! Even if you're not "into" that line at the time, you can save the postings and review them at another time, when all attention is on that family. As I understand it, after reviewing the COVEY material on Sam COVEY of Ontario b. c1848 - the main problem at hand is to prove without doubt, which COVEY family he fits in to, right? Can anyone shed more light on this? Pam in Orlando >Pam, > >I've just picked up working on my furstrating COVEY line after a taking a >break to work on the Sweeney's for a while.

Janelle There's a gedcom of a Samuel Covey on file in the CompuServe genealogy forum library that appears to match yours. It lists descendants of a Samuel Covey and a Elizabeth "Nap." The family settled in Franklin Co. Tennessee. I've made a tenuous connection between a John Covey, one of Samuel's grandsons and a "Sinia" Covey: The 1830 Census for John Covey of Franklin Co. Tenn. listed two girls in the 10-15 age group. John's brother James migrated to Arkansas by the time of the 1840 Census. Also, on 23 Aug 1836, an apparent double wedding occurred in Pulaski Co. AR for Sinia Covey and E.W. Guthrie and Maria Covey and Joel Sampson. (Sinia would have been 11-12 years old by 1830 Census. The name Sinia may have been a contraction of Lucinda.) My interest is the Guthrie line: E.W. Guthrie later migrated to Texas. The Covey GEDCOM was filed on the Compuserve genealogy forum 7 Mar '94 by Allen G. Schmidt, 73062,1016@compuserve.com. A GEDCOM of apparently the same Covey family was filed on the CSI genealogy forum in Jan 1996 by Melinda Pennington, 76720,312. However, neither lists any earlier information on Samuel Covey -- date or location of birth or of death. But the Elizabeth "Nap" and your Elizabeth Knapp seems a strong connection. I'd appreciate any information you have on Samuel Covey -- and especially any information confirming Sinia's relationship to John Covey. Thanks. --Gerald Moses

Seeking proof of death and burial of Samuel Covey, born 1761 Dutchess, NY. Supposedly died 15 Sept 1840, Jefferson, TN. Samuel was married to Elizabeth Knapp about 1780. Are there any records of his marriage or death? Any help appreciated. Janelle

Searching for info on COVEY family in Talbot Co. MD. Henry COVEY m. Eleanor EDMONDSON, 1805, St. Michaels Parish, Talbot Co. MD. Children included Edward, Thomas, Susan, Henry. I have some descendants of them. Does anyone know parents of Henry or other info? BJane@aol.com

Well, Larry and Karen were right! They said that all the lists should be up and running by the end of the weekend, and they are. We owe Rootsweb a huge debt of gratitude for all the work they have done getting some 2200 lists back up. Anyway --- just wanted to let you all know we are back in business. The new address to send postings to is: COVEY-L@rootsweb.com (easier to remember than Maiser's address...) Everyone on the old list is already subscribed, so you needn't do anything. In case you are wondering how to unsubscribe, I have included the standard welcome message that will go out to new people. Now get those COVEY messages out there!!! Pam --------------------------------------------------------------- (New Welcome message) Welcome to the COVEY mailing list! You are currently subscribed in "mail mode", which means that you will receive every posting made to COVEY as a separate e-mail. The directions on how to change to digest mode are given below. 1. How to unsubscribe. Send a message to COVEY-L-request@rootsweb.com that contains (in the body of the message) the command unsubscribe and no additional text. 2. How to subscribe. Whatever you just did worked, or you'd not be getting this message. But for future reference (for instance, if your subscription is cancelled for whatever reason and you want to resubscribe), just send the command "subscribe" to COVEY-L-request@rootsweb.com. 3. How to change to digest mode (several postings are combined and sent to you together as a single large message). There are two steps. First, send the command "unsubscribe" to COVEY-L-request@rootsweb.com to discontinue mail mode. Second, send the command "subscribe" to COVEY-D-request@rootsweb.com to start receiving digests. 4. How to change to NOMAIL mode. There is no formal NOMAIL mode. All you have to do is follow the directions above and unsubscribe when you want the messages to stop, and then when you want them to start again, simply subscribe again. 5. If you'd like to post a message so everyone on the mailing list receives it, just send it to COVEY-L@rootsweb.com. It will then be sent on to everyone in both mail and digest mode. You don't need to send it explicitly to both. For your verification, a transcript of the original subscription request is included below.
