Hi! I'm a Gilmer too. I don't know how we fit into your line but I have a grandmother named Anne or Mary Jane Gilmer. She would have been born c. 1840 and married William Ferguson (who came from outer space.) Their son was named John Gilmer Ferguson. He married Anna Lashley who was the daughter of Job Lashley and Sara J. GILMER. This would have taken place in Northwest Ohio...Allen, Hardin and Marion Counties. William Ferguson is buried in LaRue, OH. I have dates, but not with me. I just joined this list and am thrilled to hear from Gilmers so soon.

I hope I'm a descendant of James but as far back as I've been able to trace is to my paternal gggrandfather, William Daniel Gilmore. My notes show the following: 1850 Census of Pike County Alabama: page 769 Wm. Gilmer 45 b. Ga. Matilda Gilmer 44 b. S.C. Jasper 2 b. Ala. Martha Posey 75 b. S.C. Wm. 17 b. Ala. Elizabeth 14 b. Ala.

Ala. Matthew Jasper Gilmore, Willis Glenn Gilmore and Ralph Wilkerson Gilmore are buried beside their wives in a row of marked graves near the street at the Brundidge, AL Cemetery located on South Main Street. To the west in unmarked graves lie William Daniel, Matilda and granddaughter inside a circumscribed plot marked Gilmore. Mother told me that Martha Posey, William's mother-in-law, was a French Huguenot and hellion who was shoveled between Matilda and another daughter near Union Springs for six months when she grew old. Apparently, six months was all anyone could stand.

Hi everyone, I am new to this list. Are there any Gilmers out there? Would like to correspond with any descendants of James Gilmer, Sr., b. 1728, who left Northern Ireland in 1789 and came to Ninety-Six District, Abbeville Co, SC.

Ruth, I think that I sent you this same reply once before. You may have replied to me then but I have so record of your reply. Therefore, I shall reply to you a second time. Unfortunately, I must post this to the entire Gilmore-L because I have no personal E-mail address for you. Thanks, Franklin f_w_i@email.msn.com Ruth, I am very interested in the Gilmore's from Washington Co GA. However, I have been unable to find out very much about them. My gg grandmother, Sarah Jane Gilmore was born in Washington Co GA in 1816. She married Emanual Ritch. She died in 1891 in Muscogee Co GA. She and her husband and 9 of their 10 known children are all buried in the Ritch Cemetery on the Ft Benning Reservation in Muscogee Co GA. Sarah Jane Gilmore had a maiden sister named Clara, I believe. I have no idea who her parents or who her siblings were. She named one son, Edward Gilmore Ritch. Previously, I posted the names and particulars of all those buried in the Ritch Cemetery. I hope you are someone can help me out with this or that we can compare notes. Franklin Ingram

Would all of you Gilmore cousins that are related to me, send me your short relationship. I am starting a little group of the Warren Co Ky cousins, so we can put some of our common info together. I started this with another family name and it is amazing how much we forget to put down about our family. We can go all the way back to Patrick Gilmore born in 1753, in VA, if need be. Let me know and when I get some info, I will forward it to the whole group. It will spare the rest of the Gilmore list from having too much detail on the list. barb

List members: This is a strange request. My 90 year old father-in-law recalls a Gilmore relative (female) who he says was an heir to Ivory Soap business early 1900's. Does anyone know of a Gilmore who was in any way connected with Ivory Soap? Thanks for your assistance. Jean Gilmore

Looking for info on the Kilmer/Gilmer/Gillmer/Gillmore/Gilmore from the Erwinna, Pa. area. John G. Gilmore (1848-1929) married Mary Alice Shatto and had 12 children. John's parents were Lydia Gray and Peter Gilmer who had 7 children (Jerry, Henry, John, Jane, Molly, Lydia and Martha). Jerry lost a leg in the Civil War and was married to Mary Alice Shatto's mother. Peter's parents were the Kilmer's from Ottsville, Pa. I have some additional information on this line. If you can provide additional information let me know. Thanks. Rich Fisher

I would like to locate someone with knowledge of Dorothy GRAY and her husband Robert GILMORE. Who were her parents? Where was she born? Where were they married? When were their daughters born? The following is a will abstract, probably for brother of above mentioned Dorothy GRAY: "I, William Gray, of Cambridge Township, in Albany County, husbandman, being very sick." I make James Cowden, of Cambridge, sole executor and he is to pay all debts. Of the rest, I leave to my sister, Dorothy Gilmore, 5 lbs. To my sister Esther, 4 lbs. I leave all the rest "to my indulgent father," and to my brothers, Hugh, Matthew, Jacob, and David, and to my sisters, Dorothy, Phebe, and Esther. Dated December 25, 1773. Witnesses, Robert Gilmore, Hugh Gray, John McClung. Proved, February 10, 1774. Possibly Dorothy was the "Dolley" Gray who married Robert Gilmore, 1754 in Roadtown, MA. Their children were: 1. Esther m. Alexander Andre/Andrew 12 Jul 1792, Cambridge, Washington Co., NY; ch: Mary, James, William, Robert Gilmore, Joseph Nelson, Matthew Gray, Martha Ann. 2. Martha m. John Donohow April 8, 1799, Cambridge, NY Any help will be appreciated. Jean Gilmore

Sarah GILMORE, b. between 1768-1786, Cambridge, Washington Co., NY, dau. of George GILMORE and Elizabeth BLAIR GILMORE, m.??? Watson. According to a Washington County History, they moved to Western New York after their marriage. I don't know if this means the name of a town, the area of western New York, or possibly the area which is now known as Yates and Steuben counties, New York. I would like to know more about this couple and any descendants. Thanks for your help. Jean Gilmore

Wilma I have used the General Land Office search to find federal land transactions by my family. I then download the tif file of the land pattent document. On those documents it usually gives the residence of the person obtaining the land. For example, for one of my ancestors in Indiana who was buying land in Jackson Co., the earliest document showed he was from Clark Co. IN and a later transaction showed he was from Jackson Co. Then your MO Gilmores might be like my John Gilmore who moved to Porter Township in Greene (later Christian) Co. in the 1840s. There were no federal land patents listed for him. Try the local land records too and see if they give anything about residence. Ted On Tue, 2 Feb 1999 S1VEDETTE@aol.com wrote: > I have just found some information that troubles me.

Ted, thanks for the information. I guess I will have to do a lot of looking on this one. I will try General Land Office search. Thanks again, Wilma << I have used the General Land Office search to find federal land transactions by my family. I then download the tif file of the land pattent document.
