We have the book by Gert Lawrie and are Chart #23. I suspect you are from an earlier portion of the 'connection'. He was looking for ~descendants~ of the Henry / Miller clan. He is interested in keeping contact with someone in the Northern area in case we come up with any new information. He has visited the farms and found a man who worked on one of them. He sent us older pictures and wrote what he remembered from working for the last of the family to own the land. Thank you for your reply and if interested in any of this please e-mail me Denise

His father was either W. Newton or Newton Caddell Sparks. I understand there is dispute about which is correct. "He" was married to Theodora "Dora" Perrylee Mc Carty. My GreatGrandma was Laura May Clements, b May 12, 1890. Her father was James (Jim) Thomas Clements, her mother was Anne (Annie) Caroline Tennille. A cousin of hers was, John Wesley Hardin; a gunfighter (?) of the time. Lauras Grandfathers were Emanuel Clements, Sr. and George Culver Tennille. Her Grandmothers were Martha Balch Hardin and Amanda Jane Billings. Her husband was William (Jake) Jacob Sparks. They had four children; Lela V., Beulah W., Newton J., and Ora Lee. Ora Lee married John Cornelius Rotge, whos parents are Peter "Pete" Rotge and Lillie Mae Surber. John and Ora Lees, daughter, is my mom; Bettie Louise. My mom married Joseph Wright Henry and the had Johnnie L. (myself) and Allan R. In June 1949, Joseph was working for the Illi! noisCentral Ry. After he and my mom, divorced; he returned to the Fulton, TN/KY area. There, he re-married and had a family. So thats the spotter version of my tree. There are marriages, re-marriages, etc. But this is the basics and I am expanding as is possible. TNX John

>From Chapter 1 of Alexander Lecky's 1905 book, "The Laggan and its Presbyterianism we find the following description of the district know as the LAGGAN: "On looking at a map of the County Donegal, it will be seen that the north-eastern part of the county, which is the most northerly part of Ireland, is a peninsula washed on the eastern side by the waters of Lough Foyle and on the western by Lough Swilly. This is Inishowen, a mountainous and, to a large extent, a barren country. Immediately to the south of it is a fertile and comparatively flat country, lying between the river Foyle and the upper reaches of Lough Swilly, and extending in one direction from the City of Derry to Stranorlar, and in another from Lifford to Letterkenny. This is the district which in by-gone times was known under the name of THE LAGGAN, and formed the most productive and desireable portion of the ancient territory of Tyrconnell..." This is also where many of my ancestors and yours came from; Defenders of Derry during the great siege, the defining moment in Ulster Protestant history. To an Ulsterman the Siege of Londonderry is what the War Between the States is to an American. Shortly after this event great waves of Derrymen left for America, first settling in Pennsylvania and then moving down the Valley of Virginia and into the Carolinas. This genealogical connection between the families of those who fought at Derry and those who settled in Augusta/Rockbridge counties Virgina and the Settlement of the Northwest Carolina Frontier (Carolina Cradle by Ramsey) eventually reaches a climax on a little mountain in North Carolina on October 7, 1780. This is the area of history that myself and fellow researcher John Giocoletti from Florida have always wanted to explore in detail. This June we will be travelling to Derry and Belfast for some extended research into the family histories of those names that appear both in the records of the Laggan and at King's Mountain. Lecky's two books, "The Laggan and its Presbyterianism," and "In the Days of the Laggan Presbytery," published in 1905 and 1908 Belfast, Davidson & McCormack, North Gate Works, are a must for anyone wanting to discover their Ulster roots. The books real value for the genealogist is in the Appendix which is divided into several parts, the most important being the following: "The following are the names of men who attended the meetings of the Laggan Presbytery between the years 1672 and 1700, as ruling elders or as commissioners, together with the names of the congregations which they represented. They were doubtless the leading men in the districts in which they lived..." These lists are by Parish and I will give a couple of examples: Taboyn: Matthew Lindsay, John Aikine, Alexander Houston, Robert Cowan, Archibald Alexander, Robert Scott, Wm. Mackie, Wm. Bell, Robert M'Clellan, Richard Armstrong, Richard Moore, John Kilgore, Wm. Inglis, John Gay, John Harvey, David Paterson, George Brown, Robert Moore, James Marshall, John Graham Raphoe: Joseph Henderson, Edward Hervies, William Mills, Michael Henderson, Robert Anderson, Patrick Bell, Robert Dick, Alexander Stuart, William Ramsay, James Laird, Robert Walker, John M'Clure, Robert Gray, John Sproul Londonderry: John Craig, William Cunningham, John Campsie, William Rodger, James Fisher, Horace Kennedy, James Wilson, William Macky, James Lennox, William Smith, John Cowan, Alexander Lecky, William Davidsson, James Wallace, George Henderson, others In addition to the ruling elders there is a list of people from the Hearth Money rolls of 1665 by Parish and TOWNLAND which places a person in an area sometimes as small as a few acres. These lists are important when comparing names with the early landowners of Augusta county or the Baptismal records of the the Rev. Craig at Tinkling Spring Presbyterian Church or the early settlers of the Yadkin settlement in Rowan county, North Carolina. I will be willing to furnish copies of these two books for a limited time to researchers who want to explore their Ulster genealogy. Many of you purchased copies of Professor Hagy's thesis, "Castle's Woods; Frontier Virginia Settlement" and I have received numerous e-mails about the quality of that document. I believe these two books by Lecky are superior in the information contained and if you would like a copy please contact me privately at [email protected] for the details. Any information John and I discover specific to your surname will be posted on the appropriate list after our return from Ireland. I will provide a list of surnames that have "made the cut" so far, the requirements being that the family is found in Derry and also found at King's Mountain. Any suggestions for additional names will be considered as long as the request is substantiated with a reasonable amount of documentation. Regards, Robert Cowan 525 Harrogate Rd. Matthews, North Carolina 28105 Names on the list so far: Alexander, Anderson, Bell, Black, Blair, Brown, Buchanan, Campbell, Cowan, Craig, Cunningham, Denniston, Edmondson, Finley, Fleming, Gillespie, Graham, Hamilton, Houston, Irvin, Kilgore, King, Knox, Lindsay, McClure, Maxwell, Moffatt, Montgomery, Moore, Ramsay, Robinson, Russell, Scott, Steele, Stewart/Stuart, Thompson, Walker, Weir, Young spellings may vary John and I will stay in touch with the various lists as best we can. It will not be possible to remain of all the surname lists all the time for obvious reasons. Feel free to contact me at [email protected] if you have any suggestions or questions. This may make a nice book one day.

Edrena Henry JACKSONVILLE-Edrena Henry, 87, of Jacksonville died Saturday, March 9, 2002, at Shands at Jacksonville following an extended illness. Born in Youngstown, Mrs. Henry moved to Jacksonville from High Springs. She was a retired beautician and member of Friendship Baptist Church of Jacksonville where she served on the Usher Board. Mrs. Henry is survived by: a daughter Linda Daniels of Jacksonville, step-children Charles Henry of Gainesville, Elanie Haile of Starke; a brother, Earl Davis of Orlando; six grandchildren and four great-grandchildren. Graveside services for Mrs. Henry will be held at 11 a.m. on Thursday, March 14, 2002, at Moncrief Cemetery in Jacksonville with the Rev. Isaac Roberts conducting the services. Haile Funeral Home of Starke is in charge of arrangements. Visitation will be at Haile Memorial Chapel on Wednesday, March 13, 2002, from 4-8 p.m. Note: I am of no relation, but my sympathies go out to those of you who are.

Regarding the inquiry about Samuel Henry, b. abt 1838 in Port Hope there may be a connection to the Dr. Walter Henry b1791 Donegal Ireland who lived in Belleville after retiring as Surgeon in the British Army having served in Spain, India, St. Helenas. Halifax and Kingston. Dr. Henry was married to Leah Allan Geddes and they had 3 sons and two daughters. I know of one son Walter James practiced medicine in Bellville and then Ottawa. He died 1860. My Gr. Grandfather was Dr. Thomas Henry also from Ireland and we believe is a first cousin to Walter. They both graduated from Trinity College Dublin and University of Edinburgh. They were affiliated with the Church of England. Thomas lived near Toronto. Samuel and John (Jack) are family names on our side i.e. Thomas had a son Samuel who lived in Harriston Ontario. Are their any physicians or writers in your Henry line? I have been anxious to connect with the Eastern Ontario Henry's. There is also a connection to New York and to Patrick Henry "the great reformer" but I have not been able to make the link.

I am looking for information on the Henry families in and around Saint George, New Brunswick. some names I have (but no other info) are William John Henry wife Clara W (would like her maiden name) Mary Jane Henry married a MacDougal Frederick Henry Guy & Gilbert Henry(both drowned in 1903-ages 19 & 20) Can anyone help with this family? Also. Is there a Etta Henry who married Aulden Greason? They might be listed under Caithness, near Saint George. Thanks so much, Marilyn Bennett
