Hi List: I'm new to the lisst, but have ben VERY impressed with the activity. I haven't benefitted yet, but hopefully, that will change. I am looking for information on the family of Emanuel Forkner. He was born 20 Sept 1760 in Bute Co., NC, married Elizabeth Mangum 20 Dec 1783 in Wilkes Co., NC. He died 13 Aug 1839 and is buried in the Faulkner Cemetery, which is on the county lines of Owen and Monroe counties. I am looking for his children. When he migrated from North Carolina to Indiana, he spent some time in Jacson county before moving to Monroe, then Owen county. Knowing my luck, his family is spread out between North Carolina and Owen county, but I can always hope for the best. I have identified one son, Emanuel Ford Forkner (b. 1804 d. 1870, also buried in the Faulkner Cemetery), and one daughter, Elizabeth (b. c 1798, d 12 Mar 1846, buried in the Faulkner Cemetery). It has been suggested by Don Matson of Ellettsville, that other daughters might be Ava R. (or Avar! ylla) who married Thomas Allen, and Mary who married William H. Coffey. According to the 1790 census of Dobbs Co., NC, there should be at least three more sons and one more daughter. Any help with this family would be appreciated. Debbie Harris in Norman, Oklahoma
