Misty, Carolyn, Mary Lou, Thanks for your quick responses. Am very glad to hear that he is ok.!! Wish we could find " that remote island". It does sound great. My kids are all gone from home, but would like to send my dogs to someone else for a few days now and then. Perhaps if Ron has found it and is hiding out there, maybe we can convince him to share the location. Have a great day.

I am organizing my documents and other papers; and I found the news clipping about J.A. Eden death. The funeral was held in the Meyhodist church in Dahlgren. He was 84 yrs. On 3/7/ Rev Edward Minor officiated. There was mention of his daughter, Virginia Ripley from Shelbyville. The burial was in Pleasant Grove cem near Dahlgren. Do you have any info on the rest of the family? My Gpparents were Alonzo and Willa (Edens) Fann. His parents were Hiram and Delya Fann; hers were William Delbert and Eliza Alice (Midkiff) Edens.

Betty, The dates are close enough that I would follow up on them. I don't know about the war record. A mistake could have been made or, perhaps, it is a different Willilam. Shirls

Link to our website: http://www.carthage.lib.il.us/community/churches/primbap/FamHist.html As of this morning, I have now completed updating the surnames of members of Primitive Baptist churches which are presently available to us for Hamilton and Saline counties. I apologize, but had to make some corrections even since yesterday, as well as adding the names for about four or five more churches. We have not been able to obtain, yet at least, the records of several churches which we think still exist, from which we could make these lists much more complete. Hopefully, we will be able to update our pages for those sometime. Sincerely, Robert Webb ________________________________________________________________ GET INTERNET ACCESS FROM JUNO!

I've added some additional surnames for Hamilton, Crawford, and Morgan counties, the names of people who were members of Primitive Baptist churches in those counties. Still have more to add. http://www.carthage.lib.il.us/community/churches/primbap/FamHist.html then click on the link for the particular county.

Theresa, If no one is going to the courthouse in Hamilton County, you could probably write to them and identify the records you need and they could send them to you. I don't think any staff members will do our research, but usually they will pull records if they are identified. Darlene Shawn

Hello Listers, I was wondering if anyone would be going to the court house in Hamilton County anytime soon? I am looking for a record of divorce there. I have all the information that would be needed to locate the record. I just need someone to find it, and make a copy of it for me. I'll reimburse copying and postage charges. LMK and I'll send the information needed through email. Thanks Theresa Kingsley Lancaster, CA

Since so many Hamiltonians are descedned from this man I was working on a biogrphy for him. These are the notes that I have so far and I was wondering if all you relations would read this and send me anything you know about him that is not included. After I finish it I will give it to carol to post on Yesterdays. Patrick _______________________ Ambrose Maulding was likely born in western Orange County, Virginia. Becasue we have not traced his father accurately though it is possible that the was born in the regions that belonged to later counties formed farther west in colonial Virginia. Nothing is known currently of his childhood. He married his first wife in Virginia. Her name is Peggy as is found in the deeds of Logan County, Kentucky. Some believe that her last name was Westley but I have not seen substantiation for this of yet. His tombstone credits him with Revolutionary War service in the Virginia Continental Line. I am seeking proof of this as well. I think it is much more likely that he saw militia service in the campaigns against the overhill Cherokee rather than continetal Line service. The first record attributable to him is the Washington Co, Tenn (NC) List of Taxables, 1778, Assest by James Maulden, Josiah Hoskins & John Higgans. Retd to Benjn Willson, Esqr. (Alderman, "The Overmountain Men," p. 58.) The names Ambrose Maulden and James Maulden were on the same list. In 1780 he is a signer of the Cumberland Compact. In the early 1780's Ambrose planted a crop of corn in Hawkins County, Tennesee on land occupied the previous year by Thomas Gibbons and Anne Eppes (Anne was the 2nd cousin once removed of John Anderson who married Ambrose's daughter Morning). In 1783 he is recorded as being a Lt. in the militia. On 01/09/1786 Ambrose purchased Revolutionary Land Warrant no. 3500 from Thomas Hickman 640 acres and on 08/ /1786 Ambrose purchased Rev. Land Warrant 3375 from Joseph Roberts 228 acres which sold to Edwin Hickman in 1790. An early deed of Ambrose Maulding from Michael Cavitt is recorded in Sumner County, Tenn. as well as a deed from Ambrose Maulding to Alexander Witherspoon, recorded in Sumner County, Tenn. By 1792 Ambrose Maulding is appointed Judge for Logan County Kentucky . The Logan County deed books contain deeds as follows: Logan Co. Ky Deeds Vol A-1 1792-1796 Page 3 June 20, 1793 >From William Roberts of Shelby Co., Ky. To James Dramgoole of Logan Co. for 100 acres in County of Logan between Red River and Mauldings fork. Wittness: Thomas Morlley, West Maulding, John Gilbert & John Sutten. Page 40 Nov.17, 1794 >From Abram Buford, Scotland Co. Ky. To Morton Maulding of Logan Co. Ky. For 395 acres on the Whipperwill and Spring Creeks Wittness: Robert Ewing, Thomas Gorham, Justinsean Cartwright & Reason Bowie. Page. 52 Date June 23, 1795 >From Ambrose Mauldin & Peggy his wife to John Ewing for 372 acres on the Whipperwill Creek nearby land owner-Ephraim McLain the Name Mauldin is also spelled in this instrument as Moldren, & Mauldings From the book OLD KENTUCKY GRANTS 1793-1856 we know that Ambrose had grants south of Green River as follows: Ambrose Maulding 200 1-193 9-24-1796 Logan Muddy R. Ambrose Maulding 200 1-428 10-10-1797 Logan Muddy R. In 1797 Ambrose purchased Rev. Land Warrant 4428 from James Roney, sold to Joshua Cate in. Ambrose paid taxes as follows: Logan County, Kentucky Tax Lists 1792-1815 from U. S. film SL# 8122 1792 MAULDIN, Ambrose 1 male white over 21, 0 males 16-21, 1 black, 12 horses, 12 cattle, 372 acres. 1793 MAULDIN, Ambrose 1 male white over 21, 1 black, 15 horses, 372 acres. 1794 MAULDIN, Ambrose 1 male white over 21, 1 black, 12 horses, 16 cattle, 371 acres. 1795-6 dim film 1800 MAULDIN, Ambrose 200 acres 1801 MAULDIN, Ambrose 200 acres 1807 MAULDIN, Ambrose 200 acres Before 1801 Peggy Ambrose Maulding's first wife died and Ambrose remarried to Mary Purdy February 19, 1801 as is recorded in Loban County records. About 1803 Ambrose moved northwestward toward Hnederson County Kentucky in the area now Union County but by 1815, he was settling on Hogg Prairie in section 13, west of present McLeansboro, and north of Ten Mile Church. After coming to Illinois he was a justice of the peace in White County, and helped to select the seat of justice for Jefferson County. He died in 1833, and is buried in the Ten Mile Church cemetery, where a Memorial was erected by his descendants. From Illinois public land sales for Hamilton County, Illinois we know that Ambrose acquired as follows: MAULDING AMBROSE FD NE 13 05S 05E 3 160.00 2.00 320.00 MALE 08/11/1817 087 233 HAMILTON MAULDING AMBROSE FD SE 13 05S 05E 3 160.00 2.00 320.00 MALE 05/04/1819 088 713 HAMILTON Ambrose Mauldings will In the Name of God Amen, I Ambrose Maulding of Hamilton County in the State of Illinois considering the uncertainty of this mortal life and being of sound mind thanks be to God for the same do make and publish this my last will and testament in manner and form as follows (to wit) First I give to my three daughters Isabella Maulding, Sary Maulding & Rashil Maulding one horse saddle bridle cow and calf and one bed and furniture each so soon as they become of age or marry.
