    2. Shirley Holland via
    3. I may have answered this, however, if I did not - I am not related to this Yarbrough family. My people were in Carroll County and then moved to Mitchell County, GA.My grandfather Hampton Yarbrough was already married and did not go with the family when they moved. He died 1926 and is buried at Tyrone.

    2. Martha Brown via
    3. - This mail is in HTML. Some elements may be ommited in plain text. - Hello This message is coming to you with great depression due to my state of discomfort. I came down here to (North Cyprus) with my family for a short vacation but unfortunately, we were mugged and robbed at the park of the hotel where we stayed. All cash, credit cards and cell phones were stolen off us but we still have our lives and passports. We've been to the embassy and the police here and they have done the best they can. Our flight leaves in less than 12hrs from now but we are having problems settling the hotel bills and the hotel manager won't let us leave until we settle the bills. I am contacting you to ask for a short loan which I will refund immediately I get my family back home safely. Let me know if you can help. Looking forward to positive response. Martha

MORGAN, UTAH - FamilySearch and My Ancestors Found (MAF) announce the 4th annual Family History EXPO in St. George, Utah, February 8-9, 2008.

It appears your family history expositions continue to grow and succeed. We're happy to be involved and look forward to participating as a sponsor in 2008.” “Working with FamilySearch is a natural, since our organizations share similar goals. FamilySearch works to preserve access to the world’s important record collections and MyAncestorsFound.com serves to teach researchers how to evaluate the surviving source documents that mention ancestors,” says Holly Hansen, MAF President. “The proliferation of indexes and scanned images on the web means genealogists must learn to sift through the information overload. Based on the 100+ course materials compiled for the syllabus, attendees of the Family History EXPO can expect to come away with increased knowledge, enthusiasm, and products designed to catapult them forward in their search for answers to family history questions.” Holly continues “The large exhibit hall will feature thousands of family history items demonstrated by experts from as far away as Hawaii, Connecticut, California, Illinois, Arizona, Utah, Washington, Maryland, New Jersey, Florida, Idaho, and England. Additional sponsors include WorldVitalRecords.com, Ancestry.com, Family Tree Magazine, Footnote.com, DearMYRTLE.com, GenerationMaps.com, and Godfrey Memorial Library.” About FamilySearch The Genealogical Society of Utah (GSU), doing business as FamilySearch, is a nonprofit organization sponsored by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.

    1. Formation of counties
    2. S D Holland
    3. Hello: In searching for other family members I find that the mistake is made over and over again about Fulton County While researching please keep in mind Fulton County was form 1854 from DeKalb county. Even today the Fulton and DeKalb county lines are so close that it might be a good idea not discount if it says your ancestors lived in DeKalb County 1858. If you drive down Moreland Ave. in EAst Atlanta, the west side is Fulton County, and the East Side is DeKalb County. Clayton County was formed in 1860, Fayette and Henry counties. Also prior to 1932 anyone thinking their ancestors lived in Fulton County the might search Campbell County if it is thought to be S Fulton County. 1 Jan 1932 Campbell County became Fulton County on the East of the Chattahoochee and on the West Side it became Douglas County. Milton County became Fulton County 1932 in the North part of Fulton County. I try to keep these dates of counties formations so I can refer to them Just thought it would help Shirley sdholland@mindspring.com
