We had all gotten to this one in one way or the other. In fact, I have been stuck there for a long time. Janice has done a really nice job of pulling all this together and hopefully we will hear from her soon and she can join us on the list.Hugh Ivester (Isbister).b. abt 1755 - Orkney Islandscame to America in 1775settled first in Rowan Co. NC and then Rutherford Co., NC.married Barbara - who and where we do not know...will written in 1791 - mentions wife Barbary; sons George & Jacob; daughters Elizabeth & Polly; and "the child my wife goes with now".will probated Jan. 1792.And here is where one of the concerns start. Simply different interpretations of same data....In 1800 Barbara is listed in the Rutherford Co., North Carolina census with the following:2 males under 10 1 male 10-16 (son Jacob)1 male 16-26 (son George)1 female 16-26 (daug. Elizabeth or Polly)1 female 26-45 (Barbara)Dorothy and I believe that the 2 males under 10 are Hugh and John and that the "child my wife goes with now" turned out to be twins. Janice isn't sure about that theory. However, we both agree that one of those under 10 males was Hugh. Fran is descended from both sons George and Hugh.Now... we have had no luck finding these folks in the 1810 census - Wouldn't you know that they would miss our group. Has anyone had any luck here....Now... the 1810 census - Rutherford Co., NC - Dorothy sent this census record..This one is a bit strange...George Ivester (Hugh and Barbara's son)1 male under 10 (George's son Isaac)1 male 26-45 (George, son of Hugh & Barbara)James Ivester ( unknown)1 male 16-261 female under 101 female 16-261 female 45 and upBarbara Icler1 male under 102 males 16-261 female 16-26 1 female 45 and upJanice read the film as only listing a George and a James. And then an index that I found on line lists the following:George Ivester, Adam Iscler, and a Barbara Icler. Although I have not read it - guess I need to rent it -- apparently it is difficult to read. Have any of you seen this film and do any of you have different information from it....Ok -- see next message -- Emma
