Good Evening Everyone, My apologies for just sort of disappearing. Have had some family concerns that kept me from getting much done. While I won't bore you with all of the specifics I will give you a hint concerning just one of them. If your daughter walks in the door with a small puppy that she found on the freeway who is covered with sores be very, very concerned. You have no idea how much impact that little tiny puppy and what it is carrying is going to have on your life. If anyone wants the full story then e-mail me privately. I will be HAPPY TO EXPOUND on the topic. However...... I received the following message on another mail list. I requested permission to cross post it to all the lists I admin. First of all, this is a very nice site in its own right. But I think you will find the article very interesting as well. Hope you enjoy it. Take care - Emma ....................................... Hello Everyone: We receive hundreds of messages each month for information on early American Emigrants and a few years ago we found a very good article on the subject and thought we would share it with you. Titled.......Founders of Early American Families...Emigrants From Europe 1607-1657. This is something all genealogists and researchers should read to have a better understanding of what was happening here prior to 1657.

Edna, I met Lori about 10 years ago when we move to Lake Norman. She is a blonde beauty who is well known in the real estate business around the Lake Norman area but I can't tell you anything more . I got her to log onto the website several months ago and thought she was still on. Has she removed her address from the website?

Hi Edna, Look at the Luther Edward Springer too. It does not give his mother's maiden name but he was born in Arkansas 25 Nov 1906. Sure fits for their first child. Take care - Emma

Emma, I show two wives for John Francis Ivester. The first is Margie Carlson, and the second is Bobbie ??. I had no names of children at least Lori is a start. Thanks again.

Thanks Emma for your help. I found the California death record for Cecile. I didn't think of checking the spelling Ivestor when I printed out all of the California deaths and births a couple years ago. Luckily, there were only two that I missed on the deaths, and its too late to get the births since they were removed because of privacy laws. On the death index there was a Norman D. Springer, b. 5 May 1931 in Arkansas; d. 19 Apr 1997 in Solano County, CA whose mother was an "Ivestor" do you suppose he could be a sibling of Cecile? Ethel would have been 46/47 years old.

Sorry - hit the send button too early - back in a bit - Emma

Hi Edna, Re your messabe below. I got some of the information from this family from David Ivester and some from the 1920 census. So I had these children: Luther - abt 1907 Ray - Sept 1908 Cecile Mae - 28 Apr 1914 Sylvia - abt 1918 In a message dated 5/5/2003 1:50:14 PM Central Daylight Time, ednaicole@yahoo.com writes: > Hi All, > Since things have been quiet for such a long time, maybe it's a good time > to ask some questions. > 1.

Hi All, Since things have been quiet for such a long time, maybe it's a good time to ask some questions. 1. Ethel Ivester, d/o Matthew Isaiah and Fannie Webb Ivester, m. John Willis Springer. The 1920 Census Fulton County, AR E.D.18- 9B shows their children: Luther Son 13 S Cecil Dau 8 S Sylvia Dau 1 3/12 1930 Census Fulton County, AR E.D.7-3A shows children: Cecil Dau 15 S Cordia Dau 8 S Robert Son 6 S Since Cecil only aged 7 years between censuses is Cordia and Sylvia the same person or did Cordia die? Was there a son Roy or Ray? Were there other children? I would appreciate any info. 2. Is there anyone searching for information on the family of Joseph Wilson Ivester (s/o Anderson Hugh and Arzella Moss Ivester)? I have been in touch with his granddaughter, Eva, who's father was Joseph Clyde Ivester. Clyde and his brothers Henry Julius (Harry) and William Ray (Ray) moved to Wyoming in 1910. 3. This last question is for Lee, who is Lori Ivester Jackson? Edna

Emma, Looks like the weather is bad everywhere in the world right now. I know in South Carolina we have had power outage. Looks like the rest of the week is going to be bad. Hope it doesn't get our power again. Hope everyone is safe. Dee

Sorry no finds here. Just keep head-butting the brick wall I am against. <<< GRIN>>> You know how hard headed us Ivester's are. Regina

Hi Everyone, I have not received any mail from many of the mail lists in almost 12 hours so I thought I would send this as a test. Rootsweb is not indicating a problem so this is more a test just for me. It is also a good chance just to say Hello. We certainly have been a quiet bunch recently. I know why Edna and I have been quiet. We have all been fighting a flu, etc. I also imagine that many of you are out working in yards, etc. Anyway... when you get the chance let us know any exciting finds you might have made. Take care - Emma
