Good Morning to all Appling County Researchers Request your help in the following family: I am researching Isham Leggett who was born December 18, 1851 in Appling County GA and died December 1927. He married Hettie Millikin, born February 18, 1863 and died in February 1931. They had 8 children one of which was named Elzie Leggett who married Lillian Lourine Stewart, my mothers sister. Anyone having information on this family, please contact ASAP, e-mail or at William C. Reeves, 504 Eagles Nest Rd, Dudley, NC 28333, 919-736-3974. Thank you. God Bless to all. Bill Reeves

Please excuse the multiple post. I have just found that my GREEN family was in Walker Co., Georgia in the 1850 and 1860 census. They were found in 1870 Whitfield Co., Georgia, Tunnel Hill Distr. I don't think they moved, I think the county line moved. They are, as listed in the 1870 census: George W.-- 64 attending a ___ mill b. S.C. Lucinda -- 60 keeping house b. S.C. Margaret -- 38 at home b. S.C. Malissa -- 36 at home b. S.C. Harriett -- 34 at home b. S.C. Melinda -- 32 at home b. S.C. Elizabeth -- 30 at home b. GA. In the 1850 Walker Co. Census there were listed in addition to the above (with exception of Elizabeth) a son and 3 additional daughters. George was listed as a mechanic. Garland S. -- 23 b. S.C. Eliza A. -- 21 b. S.C. Mary -- 12 b. S.C. Sarah A. -- 3 b. S.C. Does any of this look familiar to anyone, if so please e-mail me. Thanks, Billy Shepherd sheps@hom.net

Hello, I'm new to the list and wanted to state the names I am working on. I have John Hamilton, born 1780 in SC and died 1837 Bartow Co., GA. He married Mary Posey Hearn, born 1792, Hancock Co., GA and died 1853 in Chattooga Co., GA. Also I have Wesley Pledger, born 1801, Elbert Co., GA and died 1866 in Hill Co., TX. He married Eliza Abagail Hamilton who was born 1814 in GA. Wesley's father was Thomas Pledger, Sr. He was born 1765 in NC and died 1846 in Elbert Co., GA. The daughter of Wesley and Eliza was Eliza Jane Pledger, born 1855 in Chattooga Co., GA. She was my grandmother. I would appreciate hearing from anyone working on these names. Sincerely, Dortha McElroy Greenlee

Hi all, My father, now deceased, told me many years ago that his relative (? Uncle) was involved in the ownership of a horse which won, I think, the Kentucky Derby. There is a triple crown of big races so it might be one of the others. Story goes that after they paid the Trainer, Jockey, etc etc there was just enough money left to pay the entry fee for the next BIG race, and the horse didn't win that one and all the money was gone. Nothing's changed eh! Anyway, is there a gene out there who is also a racehourse lover who might be able to look up results of the BIG races for me and see if there was a Kitchen/s involved and pass on the details?

Hiya, folks! I'm going on a bicycle trip for 6 days, and so am unsubscribing until I return. Have fun and take care! Brenda Hébert

Mick, This address has a list of the winners of the Kentucky Derbys, but only the horse's name - which would not help you unless you happened to recognize it from something your father said: http://sports.excite.com/rah/info/derbywin This page will give you the trainers and jockeys for the Belmont Stakes: http://sports.excite.com/rah/news/000526/sl-sports-rah-2412024 This one lists the horses' names only, for the Preakness: http://sports.excite.com/rah/info/preakwin I don't know of any that list the owners. Sorry. Joe Jones Orangeburg South Carolina www.joejones.com
