There are quite a few who have downloaded the data base put together by the SC Genealogical Society containing over 190,000 names. You could ask for a look-up.

Hello everyone, Thought that I would send my in my info: Mary Irvine Kennedy living in Louisiana ... searching for any info on Walter Irvine who married Ann Fitzhugh Rose in 1790 in Amherst Co. Va., another Ann Fitzhugh Rose , first cousin to the other Ann married Samuel Irvine also in Amherst Co in 1794..Samuel is most likely the brother of this Walter.. My Walter lived in Buckingham Co. Va at least for at time as my gggrandfather Samuel was born there in 1802. I think there were some legal documents there for him. ..My Walter was, from what I can gather ,a merchant.. My gggrandfather Samuel ,who was the son of a Walter Irvine, married Catherine Greenhill Jones of Nottoway Co. Va. about 1823/24, they went to Weakley Co. Tenn. and lived there the rest of their lives. I have been told that a death for a Walter Irvine was also included in some publication in Henrico Co Va in 1812 .Not sure if this is same Walter. I would like to know which of the Irvine's in the area of Amherst /Buckingham Co were the parents of Walter and most likely the parents of the elder Samuel too. Has anyone any info on a will for Walter or perhaps a will of an Irvine naming Walter as the son /heir. Perhaps anything naming children of Walter and Ann F. Rose Irvine? My understanding now is that she remarried a Payne after Walter's death. Any help would be appreciated.. My line: Walter Irvine Samuel Irvine Benjamin Dabney Irvine James Albert Irvine James B. ME

Hi everybody, The Holidays are over, everyone has had time to recover and its time to go around and identify ourselves, with name and living location, no street addresses or phone numbers are needed. In addition it would be a good idea to identify the surnames you're searching for, an OPD resident may have moved to GA and married someone there, or just about anywhere. This will help us all, and I'll start.

Hi All you Cuz's.........Way, Way, back, we must all be related, as the Irving's/Irvin's/Erwin's and all other spellings seem to have one thing in common.....the family men seem to "walk away" at various times without much explanation and are generally never heard of again........Case in point: My Irving line: My Father, William Wilson Irving, born 1902 at Lexington, Fayette, KY died Middletown, Butler, Ohio 26 January 1986 always with his family of six children and wife, Ruth Rainwater, 1901 Casey Co KY, died Middletown, Butler, OH 25 May 1988. William Wilson was only son of Henry Irving, born at Lexington 1874 died Middletwon 1936 and Mayme Rogers, born Lexington 1876 died Middletown 1954. Henry Irving was son of Thomas Irving, born Annan Parish, Dumfriesshire, Sct 1839 and died ???. Thomas came to USA in 1859, claiming Naturalization at Cannelton, Perry, IN in 1864. He married Letitia Long of Lexington ca 1870 and had three children: Margaret 1870, Henry 1874, and William 1876. He was with family until after 1880 Census and then according to family history, left without a word ca 1883 due to family turmoil with wife. Family history indicates that the family Lawyer saw him ca 1886 in St Louis, MO at a cattle sale and stated that Thomas said that he had been raising cattle nearby and was "fed up" with America and was selling out and returning to Scotland....Never heard of again....Have never found records indicating Thomas left US..................Son, William was a witness to the marriage of Brother Henry and Mayme Rogers in September 1898 but had left Lexington by 1900 Census. Family history says that Willliam wrote to his Mother ca 1902 saying that he was living in Colorado and working in a gold mine, and was engaged to be married. His Mother is said to have written him saying that she would never welcome "a western gun moll" into her home and that if he married she never wanted to hear from him again. He was never heard from again. My research indicates a William Irvin died at Golden CO in 1905 and is buried in the Golden Cemetery. There was no response to my request for burial information.................So, while thank goodness my Grandfather stayed with his family as did my Father, two other members of the same family "walked away"................. Would appreciate any data that the maillist might have on this family......I tend to feel that Thomas remarried without a divorce from Letitia Long Irving, and continued living in US but have no proof.

I'm beginning to think that's probably the answer!

John, thank you for the reply. Your James and Elizabeth appear to be a few generations prior to mine but this is very interessting and could be my family. We have been totally "stumped" on our Erwin/Ervin family tree. My ggrandfather Robert Ervin was born in 1853 in McDowell Co. NC. His mother died at his birth, his father James died as an older man in Senior reserves in the War(or Homeguard) and he was an orphan. He was brought to Haywood County NC in 1867 by an older brother John Ervin, Civil War vet, who was born abt 1836 in SC(ref-Haywood Co Census 1870). John went on to to Tenn to locate relatives in 1883 and drops from our knowledge except he wrote, according to my grandfather, a few letters to advise he was remaining in Tenn(letters and info lost). These two brothers had an older brother, also a Civil War Vet, named also James who died in a home for Confederate veterans in Raleigh about 1905. I have never been able to determine which James Ervin/Irvin was the father of these men except for one clue: My ggrandfather Robert stated that his father re-married when he was 2 years old(1885) and had children of that marriage before the War. By the time his father and brothers went to war, he had a younger half-brother and sister in the home. This matches the record in McDowell Co where James Irvin married Elizabeth Jarrett in 1885. She is shown as Elizabeth Irvin in the 1860 Census of McDowell with children matching this description and next door to her father Killian Jarrett. Later in 1874, my ggrandfather listed his father as James Ervin and mother simply as "Elizabeth" on his marriage license to marry Nancy Cathey. Elizabeth could ahve been mother and/or step-mother. Obviously this family was in SC at some point prior to the Civil War but according to the Census records, Robert's father James was born in NC. If you see any connection to this long story, let me know and thanks--The spelling of "Erwin" came about with my grandfather and his brothers, as their father Robert never got to attend school with the war and reconstruction and was not sure how to spell his name--another branch of the family in Haywood still uses "Ervin" ---Ed Erwin, Arden, NC. -----Original Message----- From: John Ervin <jervin@evcom.net> To: IRVIN-L@rootsweb.com <IRVIN-L@rootsweb.com> Date: Sunday, February 28, 1999 3:41 PM Subject: RE: [IRVIN-L] Irvin, Ervin & Urvin >I usually check records out if they involve Ervin's from North or South >Carolina. > >I have two Robert Ervin's who have a James Ervin and Elizabeth as their >parents: > >Robert Ervin #175 (b. 1706 in Ulster Prov, County Down, Ireland > d. 1774 in St. Johns Parrish SC) >His Wife: Susannah Ervin #176 (no info) >His Father: James Ervin #177 aka James Irvine (b. abt 1685 Ireland, d. >7/31/1776 about 3 o'clock, in South Carolina) >His Mother: Elizabeth James #178 (b.

Ed Erwin, Reference your email in todays IRVIN-L@rootweb. com. I imagine your great grandfather and grandmother knew how to spell their names, however the governmental agencies didn't always. Normally they went by the sound as it was uttered and you received the new spelling as they put it on the census. My branch on the Ervin side started off in South Carolina as Irvine and ended up with Ervin. I think all families in the 1600 and 1700's encountered the same spelling problem. In doing research in the past, I always looked for all the possible spellings. When did your Robert Ervin die? Robert T.
