Looking for Thomas & Sarah Hill Wheeler, and/or son Benjamin Wheeler b 1787 NC who married Patty Dutton. Thanks, Eva

Thanks to all who have contributed on this Delaney/Fields thread. I've learned some interesting things I never knew about my own close family members. Plus have solved some mysteries. First, I have a picture of the Hall Family taken in the late 1890s. There were three young children standing with Sarah Rich Hall that I couldn't positively identify. I assumed two of them were the known children of the deceased Emma Hall Delaney. But since the third one was dressed in the same fabric, I guessed there was a third child I never knew about. I now know that there was and that she and her grandmother burned to death. This story is especially horrific when you can look into the faces of these two just months before their deaths. I guess the family was so traumatized they never talked about it. And especially since my own aunt (Sarah's great-granddaughter) was badly burned as a child just a decade later. Plus I set our own house on fire when I was about three years old and tried to put a log on the fire. Long dresses, open fireplaces, dry wooden mantles and fires around wash tubs were an extreme hazard in earlier periods. According to my mother, Virginia Mae Fields Wagner (obit below) was raised by her cousin Matie Hall and Matie's husband Dewey Bagget (who never had children of their own). My mother wasn't quite certain how Virginia Mae fit into the Hall family but she knew that she did. Now I know. Does anyone know what happened to Jack Delaney?

Olivia, Would you please give me any information you have on Jesse and Epzibah/Hepzibah Moore? I have searched for a long time for her identity and had guessed that she might be Hepzibah Hayes, born 1810. But I notice you have her as a Phillips. They are my 3Xgrandparents through their son Dempsey. I would be so grateful for any help.

> So who was Anna's first husband, Mr. Lee? Anyone know? And were they > childless? Thanks, Carol M. I found Anna E. Lee in the 1900 census. She was listed as widowed with no children in the household. I have been unable to find her in 1880. The 1900 birth date of Sept 1866 matches her grave stone date of 1866-1951. 1900 Chatham Co Ga census 8th MD page 2A #20-21 Lee, Anna E. head W F Sept 1866 33 Wd Fl Ga SC Judith
