Hi Thomas, What their ad, and their Web page, doesn't say is how many markers will be provided for the $50 fee. So, it remains to be seen if it is a bargain. When your DNA results are (finally) posted on the SMGF site, I will extract the values and post the result on our DeLoach DNA Project page. The number of markers that are posted by SMGF varies from person to person, as you can see from out Projects results page: http://homepages.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~javan/desloges/dna/results/results.htm I believe that the number of markers that I will be able to extract from the SMGF results will be sufficient to confirm your match with one of the branches of the DeLoach family. Your results will be especially interesting, as you are the first non-South Carolina descendent of Michel DesLoges who has submitted a DNA sample. On the other hand, it would really throw a wrench in the gears if your sample does not match either of the two branches we have now identified. I am sending a cc of this reply to the DeLoach list in case others may have the same question. Take care.

Thank you Mike. Angel saw my post on the internet somwhere searching for DeLoach. It was very thoughful of her to write me and send the picture to me. I hope William B.DeLoach, Sen. family can soon be found. Wanda

Wanda Harbert has forwarded to me a picture of a grave stone with the following inscription: WILLIAM B. DELOACH, Sen Born Beaufort District, SC Nov 25, 1801 Died Nov 7, 1859 "Here lies a husband and father Who to a wife and children were most dear He has left a world of trouble such as this And gone to enjoy a happier world of bliss Mourn not for he sleepeth The soft slumbers of the dead Resting in his Savior's arms The just but fit pillow for the head" The grave stone is located in the CARNAHAN / DELOACH CEMETERY - Rapides Parish, Louisiana. In the 1860 Rapides Parish, LA census, there are two Deloach males listed who are apparently sons of William B. DeLoach, Senior: Household 1131 W. F. Deloach 26 SC William B. Deloach 34 SC Can anyone identify the ancestry of William B. DeLoach, Senior, or provide information about his wife and family? Mike

I have started working on North Carolina. This is a state that has numerous DeLoach families, including one of the major variant spellings - DeLoatch. From what I have found, Francis DeLoach began spelling his name DeLoatch in about 1740. His descendants, and the slaves in his family, used a mix of DeLoach and DeLoatch for quite a few years. In the 1860 census of Northampton County, all names were spelled DeLoach. In 1870, it was a mix. In 1880, all of the names in the Northampton County census were spelled DeLoatch. These variations were mostly likely due to the census taker, as well as families deciding how they would spell their surname. http://homepages.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~javan/desloges/records/census/1755-1870nc.htm http://homepages.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~javan/desloges/records/census/1880nc.htm Next project will be 1900, 1910 and 1920 North Carolina.

Dianne, Sorry to be so long in getting back to you. I thought I had more information than I do. But for what it is worth: My Great Grandfather: Andrew Jackson DeLoach March 1818 - March 1896 - Born in South Carolina My Great Grandmother: Nancy Smith DeLoach Dec. 1828 - July 1911 - Born in South Carolina They migrated to Alabama via living in Georgia for a while. They settled in Coosa County Alabama and are listed in the Coosa County 1880 census. Since my grandfather, James Henry DeLoach, was born in Coosa County, Alabama in 1866, I assume that they left South Carolina pretty early on. Sorry I don't have any more information than this. Good luck with your research.

OK, here was an easy one, Kentucky: http://homepages.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~javan/desloges/records/census/1810-1920ky.htm William DeLoach and his son Thomas are shown in the 1810 Logan County census. William's sons Ruffin and William, Jr. floated down the Tennessee and Mississippi Rivers with their families to settle in Mississippi. Hopefully, we will be able to pick up their census records in Wikinson and Yazoo Counties, Mississippi. Mike
