Dear David, Thank you for your notice. I suspect that I am one of hundreds, perhaps thousands who have had the pleasure of following your work, the thoroughness of which seems matched only by your competence and courteous nature. G'Day, Mate, Jack (Lost Estes)Dyer
G'day folks, The following is from Estes Trails, 1986, 6.4, p.4. Posted with permission of the Estes Trails editor. 1818 census, IL: Chisum Estes, Gallatin Co, p.347, 1M to 45, 2M to 10, 1f/m to 45, 1 f/m to 10 Absalom Estes, Franklin Co, p.112, 1M 21 & up, 9 other whites Joseph Estes, Franklin Co, p.111, town of Muddy, 1M 25 & up, 9 other whites George Estes, Monroe Co, p.124 (no further details) Jehu Estes, Monroe Co, p.76 (no further details) Mary Estes, White Co, p.328 (no further details) 1810 census: N.

Hey! I have a relative (make that "WE have a relative") who wants to subscribe to the Estes list. . .I can't remember how I got here. Will someone remind me how to subscribe so I can pass the info along? (My Estes genes are not forgetful - it must be from my mother's side. . .)
Kaskaskia is a small town near the Illinois/Missouri border. The closest "large" town is Chester, Illinois, which lies approximately 5 miles east of Kaskaskia. There's also a Fort Kaskaskia, an historical site about 5 miles north of Kaskaskia proper. As for the rest? No idea. Just thanking my lucky stars no additional Elishas were thrown in to boot. Warm regards from a chilly southern Virginia! - Mike Estes Marayong wrote: > G'day folks, > > The following is from Estes Trails, 1986, 6.4, p.4.

Can someone recommend a site that will explain to me exactly what I need to do to open GED files? I must need a plug-in or something I cannot get them to open. I have the Generations Deluxe genealogy program but their instructions don't work so I think my computer is missing what I need to open the files. Thanks so much, Diane Miller
G'day folks, The following has nothing to do with genealogy, it's a legal requirement which needs to be posted here (and subsequently archived on the rootsweb mail-list archives). Over the past month or two I've been occasionally posting material I've extracted from "Estes Trails", the snail equivalent of this mail-list. I was recently notified that this contravenes rootsweb policy. After consultation with the list-owner, I've been informed that if I could get permission from the editor of "Estes Trails" and post that permission to this list then I can continue to post extracts from that magazine here. The same would, presumably, apply to anyone else who wishes to post anything apart from queries to this list (or any other rootsweb list) - tho' you'll have to get permission yourself. I have been in touch with Larry Duke, the editor of "Estes Trails", and he has happily given permission. I am attaching an extract from his email below. Hopefully this'll legally cover both myself and the list-owner. Contact details for Larry Duke are available upon request, I've withheld his snail/phone/fax details, which were included in the "permission note" that he sent to me. regards, Dr. David Powell. ******************************************* David: You certainly have my permission to use the material out of Estes Trails for posting to the rootsweb. Number one, Estes Trails is not copyrighted. We only do this as a hobby, not a business. Anyone is welcome to anything I have. Number two, it would be nearly impossible to determine who was using original source material and who was using secondary source and I think it would be splitting hairs. I am sorry you have encountered this trouble. Please use Estes Trails material as you wish. We have nothing to hid nor protect. We all gain by sharing information! Larry D.

Hi Marie I will give you what I have found in my files on John Wesley Estes. There may well be more than one in the Arkansas/Missouri area of those years. A John W. Estes was one of three witnesses to a will of Allen PRIER, will was written on 30 Aug 1871, and those mentioned were all from Galena, Stone Co., Mo. This info came from: http://www.rootsweb.com/~mostone/wills/wills/_pgten.htm In a 1900 Stone County Missouri census index I found a John W. Estes listed to be on page 145 of that census: http://www.rootsweb.com/~mostone/census/1900ef.html I copied a list posted by jodie4@Juno.com - on 9/16/98, listing Estes's in Missouri with the years they were there. She has a John Wesley Estes mentioned two times, one with a b. 1821 after his name and the other with b. 1824 after the others name. She said she had alot of Estes names, it might be worth while to email her for information on John Wesley Estes. In a book on the History of Missouri by Loues Houck, I don't remember who sent it to me - something I had requested I think. It states the following: Patrick Estes came to Missouri with a Murphy in 1802 from Tennessee, and settle on the St. Francois river. Prior to settling there Murphy had to get permission from the Spanish rules and ordinances. The settlement was called the "Murphy Settlement" and was located where the city of Farmington is now. I hope this helps. Pat

G'day folks, I've been in touch with a lady who claims that the Moses Estes of Pendleton Co, SC was in Bedford Co, VA, which is where nathaniel was born. I've seen that claim floating around before, but at least now there's a source, of sorts, to stick with it, even if it's just a person. I admit I have questions about some of the stuff below, but I'm forwarding it to the list so other's can judge for themselves. I did ask Mary's permission to forward it, BTW. Cheers, David. Hello David Sorry to be so long getting back to you. Had to dig out my info. I didn't write down my sources on a lot of info I worked up, big mistake, so had to hunt it. Found some work sheets someone sent me. Don't know who. Know it wasn't Perry McCrary, I corrosponded with him a good bit, but also with a Tommie G Estes at Pleasant Grove, AL. Think these work sheets came from him. That is the only place I have found Moses Estes married to Elizabeth and that Nathaniel was born in Bedford Co. VA. Bedford Co, VA is on Moses' work sheet where Nathaniel is listed as a child and on Nathaniel's work sheet. His birth date is 5-17-1777 on one and 5-15-1777 on the other. I only know of the three children of Moses but in an ESTES TRAILS it does mention the possibility of more children. Note at top of the worksheet says Moses came to Pendleton District, SC from England in the late (looks to be 1700's) and he was (this work looks to be married) when he came to America with a large family. These work sheets were hand made and hand written and are hard to read, also has 1790 SC census Pendleton Co written at top. If you would like for me to send you a copy of these work sheets send me your mailing address. Don't know much about the two bro's. Will be glad to share what I have.

G'day Esteser's! Here's some more grist for the mills out there, so to speak. >From Estes Trails, 1987, 7.1, p.2. "Clay Co, MO Marriages, 1825-1839". The marriages were extracted by the editor (Mary Estes Beckham) from the book of that title. Sorry, I don't know who wrote the book or who published it - MB didn't give those details. Most of these are prolly covered in "Estes of Old Clay Co, MO" by McAllister & McAllister, but no harm in having them again, eh? To save typing, all dates are in english format, dd/mm/yyyy, with the month as 1-12, rather than spelt out as in my previous post. My typing speed is not exactly lightning fast. :) The list has only the "Estes" spelling, so I suspect it's been "sanitised" a bit, however I've spelt all other names as they appear in ET, even when I've seen different spellings elsewhere (ie Stallings vs Stollings). The ones marked with a "*" before the Estes are ones I don't have linked. If anyone knows who they are, please let me know! Estes, Anderson & Mary A. Swader, 8/9/1836 Estes, Archibald & Lovey Stallings, 10/11/1828 (note- Archibald was actually a Benton. He and his siblings were raised by their grandfather, an Estes) Estes, Bird & Mary Watson, 28/3/1833 Estes, Caswell & Dorah Skaggs, 16/5/1839 Estes, Elisha & Alemeda Soper, 10/12/1835 Estes, Jackson & Susan W.

Hi all: As most of you already know, the 1810 census for Tennessee was destroyed, but a partial list survived. I found this in the McClug Library in Knoxville, TN in "TENNESSEE ANCESTORS" Vol. 6 (2) August 1990. The only Estes shown was Revolution Vet. John Estes. John Estis, Males: one under 10, two 10-16, one over 45; Females: three under 10, one 10-16, one over 45; Slaves: one. I believe the males could have been George W., John Jr., and William. I do not know who the females could have been as the only daughter offered by other researchers to date is Sarah, who married John Carson in 1801. John Estes Sr. would have been 59 years old at this census. Assuming all these children were his and Mary's, he was fathering children in his fifties and she in her forties. Anyone have an opinion? Does anyone have copies of Mary Estes in later census to learn her age? Leo ________________________________________ Funny, I don't remember being absent minded.

Judy-- Since I mentioned it was under copyright, why do you copy it. These are MY words, not yours to do with. This posting you did to the Estes list does NOT make me happy. If you had asked, I perhaps could have done something similiar, but that is MY choice & not yours. Anyone seeing this post, is hereby advised, that I do not want this copied without my express permission. Please note the last sentence of what I copies from the post down below. End of Story!!!
