Linda, Could you clarify that for me. I did not understand. You mean the Sierra Club is trying to reopen the area due to the panther population ? Michelle << Subj: 1830 Macon County census John Galloway Date: 98-04-10 22:09:01 EDT From: lraxter@CITCOM.NET (Linda Hoxit Raxter) Reply-to: lraxter@CITCOM.NET To: GALLOWAY-L@rootsweb.com (GALLOWAY-Lrootswebcom) Moving on up in time, I found another John Galloway in Macon County. Keep in mind that Cane Break was once in Macon County, NC. Seems odd, but at least it is in the right state. For those of you far away, get out your maps and look for Lake Jocassee on the NC/SC line in Transylvania Co. the NC side of the lake is Cane Break. (Political note - the Sierrra Club is attempting to use my ancestors buried there to justify opeing the region to 100,000 tourists a year. grrrrrrr. It's open to the public now, you just have to walk in, which keeps the human factor down to where the panthers are actually rebuilding their population down there). Anyway. The 1830 macon County census is online http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Prairie/7305 John Gallaway (may be John Colby????? - listing his possible familiy) 1 m 0-5 (Lewis P.?) 2m 5-10 (Joberry & James ?) 2 m 10-15 (Thomas H.& 1 more) 1 m 15-20 (William J.) 1 m 30-40 (John Colby) 1 f 0-5 (Sarah) 1 f 40-50 (Here is the problem - Hannah was born in 1793 - slightly too late to fall in the 40-50 category - possible error?? Possible different John????) John is living near Samuel Patterson, Ezekeil Aken, & Joseph Powell, all popular surnames for around Cane Break if this is the right section of the county. Don't suppose anyone knows exactly which part of modern day Transylvania County is in which County in 1830? I probably should have sorted out the specifics long ago, but I haven't. -- Linda Hoxit Raxter lraxter@citcom.net See Indexed Western North Carolina Cemetery Surveys http://www.geocities.com/~alextreehouse related to at least half the county - at least once ; ) ----------------------- Headers -------------------------------- Return-Path: <GALLOWAY-L-request@rootsweb.com> Received: from rly-za05.mx.aol.com (rly-za05.mail.aol.com [172.31.36.101]) by air-za01.mail.aol.com (v41.14) with SMTP; Fri, 10 Apr 1998 22:09:01 -0400 Received: from bl-30.rootsweb.com (bl-30.rootsweb.com [207.113.245.30]) by rly-za05.mx.aol.com (8.8.5/8.8.5/AOL-4.0.0) with ESMTP id WAA14066; Fri, 10 Apr 1998 22:08:46 -0400 (EDT) Received: (from slist@localhost) by bl-30.rootsweb.com (8.8.5/8.8.5) id TAA07929; Fri, 10 Apr 1998 19:03:30 -0700 (PDT) Resent-Date: Fri, 10 Apr 1998 19:03:30 -0700 (PDT) Date: Fri, 10 Apr 1998 22:02:21 -0400 From: Linda Hoxit Raxter <lraxter@CITCOM.NET> Subject: 1830 Macon County census John Galloway To: GALLOWAY-Lrootswebcom <GALLOWAY-L@rootsweb.com> Reply-to: lraxter@CITCOM.NET Message-id: <352ECF2C.D500AE19@citcom.net> Organization: http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Forum/7150 MIME-version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Mozilla 4.03 [en] (Win95; I) Content-type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-transfer-encoding: 7bit Resent-Message-ID: <"6_PdbC.A.o7B.x9sL1"@bl-30.rootsweb.com> Resent-From: GALLOWAY-L@rootsweb.com X-Mailing-List: <GALLOWAY-L@rootsweb.com> archive/latest/78 X-Loop: GALLOWAY-L@rootsweb.com Precedence: list Resent-Sender: GALLOWAY-L-request@rootsweb.com >>
