I am researching the Ancestors of Robert Fogle (b: April 15, 1875). According to Robert Fogle's Death Certificate, his parents were Roman Fogle Dunn and Carrie Fogle. It seems that Roman Dunn was born in Germany around 1845, but living with a William Dnnn on the 1850 U.S. Census for Holidaysburg, Blair County, Pa. William's wife was Leanna (1850) and Magdalena (1860). It is assumed that The two wives are the same person for Lena or Leanna could be a shortening of the name Magdalena. William and Leanna had the follow children: Joseph, Susan, James, Rhuman (Romain in 1860), Robert (Robert Fogle in 1860), Lucretia, William, John, Thomas, Andrew, Martha, Mary, Ellen, Bertha. In 1870 William had a domestic named Mary Novelar (age 19) living with him. The 1870 Census for Reedsville, Mifflin County, Pa. showed a Roman B. Dunn, age 23, with wife Carrie I. (age 26). Roman was listed as "Ax Factory" (employee). They had 1 child living with them: Emily C. (age 1). Reedsville is where our Robert Fogle claimed to have been born. Roman Dunn was found in Altoona, Pa. in the 1880 Census. He had a wife named Carrie and the following children: Emma (age 11), William (age 9), John (age 7), Robert (age 5), Jacob (age 3) and Carrie (age 2 months). Another Dunn? Upon searching the Allegheny County Marriage Records (up to 1926), the only Roseila Hoffman listed is one who married a Leo G. Dunn. If memory serves, there was a question as to whether the Middle Initial of this man was a G. or a J. According to an Obituary from a 1932 Newspaper, it cited that our Mary Hoffman had a daugher who married a Gilbert Dunn. It is suspected that Leo G. Dunn may have been Gilbert. Rose and "Joe" Dunn had two daughters, both older than Dad. It is unknown if there were any other children. The Estimated birth of the daughters was ca. 1920, plus or minus.

I did not see the beginning of this conversation re/cystic fibrosis. My Dunns had a daughter who was only 16 when she died and it said she was an invalid. And this was the only one I knew of. Was there a lot of this in the line? Roslyn ----- Original

I think anyone looking in Tn. should also look in In. Now that they use two letters for states instead of spelling Tenn and Ind. it might be those were translated incorrectly. If you hve a brick wall there, it might pay off to check. Roslyn ----- Original

Geraldine: I don't know why they moved to White Co.Tenn. They only appear on the 1830 census. The librarian there in White Co. found an entry in a book where it tells about John Dunn being court,apparently he had owed a large amount of money. I know they were in Pendleton Dist SC on 1810 census. I can't find them at all in 1820..not in SC or TN. I didn't look in Ky;but maybe i should check out Wayne Co.I see it's right on the Ky/Tn line. Anything is possible. Your Allen would have been in the same age bracket as the Children of my John Dunn. We figure the first son,James,was b.abt 1804-06.by averaging the ages he gave in subsequent census'. I've seen your group before;but haven't figured it out yet. I know that our John must have had siblings. I do think John's father was the immigrant.(no proof,of course).And the deal about "John Riley" ...James named his 2nd son James Riley. He also had a William S.;Mary E.;Ellen;George; Armisted C.(prob.Clarence);;Thomas J.;and Marion H. got a few of your names,don't we?? Maybe i should check out the Ky.census for 1820. Keep in touch here.I'll post anything i find,of course. I wondered if John's wife,Mary was named Riley. just a thought. I found a ton of Riley's on microfisch records in Pendleton Co.SC and guess what??? They were all living in the Cherokee lands,because they were Cherokee. Some even had real Cherokee first names.

Gail & List, Seems like most of us have a brick wall on the Dunn family. Your letter really peaked my curiosity as your Dunn's ended up in White Co., TN for awhile before moving to KY. My Dunn's ended up in White Co., TN. My g-g-g-grandfather, Allen Dunn, born abt. 1802 VA, married Catherine Lafever, born abt. 1805 Wayne Co., KY. They ended up in White Co., TN. Allen's first name is either John or James. Allen & Catherine named a son, John Riley. I descend thru their dau., Mary Dunn. According to the census, Mary says she is born in KY. She was born about 1826/1827. Allen & Catherine moved to White Co., TN after Catherine's parents, Andrew Lafever & Nancy Ard moved to White Co., TN from KY. Allen & Catherine's children: Dunn, Allen b. 1802 VA Catherine b. 1804 KY Mary b. 1826/27 KY John Riley b. 1828 Probably KY Susan b. 1833 TN Zilpha (Elizabeth) b. 1835 TN George A. b. 1838 TN Patience b. 1841 TN James W. b. 1843 TN Catherine b. 1845 TN William b. 1849/1850 TN I do not know who Allen's parents are.

Hello Everyone, I have been sitting here reading about all these Dunn's from Kentucky. Thomas Dunn being a portion of the topic too. I have such a brick wall with my Dunn's. This is all I know of my Dunn's, my father's side: Me: Myrna Dunn f: Norman LeRoy Dunn, b. 09 Jan 1926 MO; 17 Feb 1978 NJ gf: Jesse Austin Dunn, b. Feb 1903 Carrollton, MO, d. July 1936, Los Angeles, CA gm: Alice Rachel Tracy, b. May 1903 Iowa; d. 1985 Mesa, AZ ggrndf: Thomas Dunn, b. Winchester, KY ggrndm: May Laster, b. Brunswick, MO Does anybody have any of these people in their line? I have sent away for my grandfather's death certificate and birth certificate. Hopefully they find these records and it will give me some info.

Fellow Dunn Researchers: To those researching John Dunn of Monroe Co., (W)V who came there abt. 1782 from Va, who served in the RevWar, we all know what has to be done. Original research in Rockingham & Albemarle Counties, Virginia where he was previous to coming to Monroe Co. If all of us did a little digging into extant records I think that we could solve the mysteries. I personally think that his father is John Dunn of Albemarle who married Anna Martin and probably two other women Barbara Newbill (5 children) and Ann Cauthorn (4 children) according to Jess Dunn. John Dunn of Albemarle descends from Thomas Dunn born in England 1606. Why, do I think so. Because his abstracted RevWar records say he was living with his father in Albemarle Co., VA at time of serving in RevWar. I have just sent off for BL Bounty Land Records at the Library of Virginia for Thomas Dunn son of the above John Dunn who died in the RW. Some BL land was given to his oldest brother William Dunn then deceased (1831), to William's son Edmund (in 1831). From the Abstracts of said Bounty Land Records in Virginia Soldiers of 1776. If this proves to be what I think it is, it will prove that John of Monroe Co. is the son of John Dunn of Albemarle. Lets' all get to work instead of waiting for someone to do the work for us. If anyone finds a piece of the puzzle please post it. Kate Ross __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!

I think most of our Dunns were fair, lots of blue eyes,long narrow jaw line, large ears- on the lanky side. This conversation is getting very interesting. Roslyn ----- Original
