Surnames: Featheringill, Ramsey Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/Wg.2ADE/65.363.1.1 Message Board Post: Yes, I do have a link to Emaline, married to George Ramsey in Adams, Co., IL. She is the older sister to my ggg-grandmother, Eliza Jane Featheringill. Emaline was born in 1820, probably in Jefferson County, KY. (Also spelled Emiline?) There were three other younger sisters and two younger brothers. The best information I can find says that Emaline and Eliza Jane's father was Elias Featheringill, b. Dec., 1789 in Frederick County, VA, and mother was Sarah Stonestreet, b. Aug. 19, 1799, also in Jefferson County, KY (youngest of eight children). They were married August 27, 1818, in Jefferson County, KY. At one point, they owned land in Oldham, Ky. The Featheringill family can be traced back to the mid 1700s in Shenandoah Co, Va. Before that, there is no proof of where they came from. Either England, or part native, I suspect. The Stonestreet ancestors were a somewhat well to do English family, owning land in the 1600s in Prince Georges County, Md. I know very little about the Ramsey's except that there are also links to another family line of mine that also ended up in Adams County, IL. Let me know if this helps or if you would like more information. I would be glad to share.

Do you have any information on a Ruth Featheringill-Inman-Turner? Ruth Featheringill married an Inman. Then she married a Charles Turner. They lived in the Quincy, Adams County, IL area. Ruth then moved to Dearborn, MO, where she died. That is all I know about this family. Thanks. kdaniel828@aol.com wrote: This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list.
