During the past several weeks there was an article on one of the many lists I receive that mentioned the above named book. It was written by Renee Oeschlaeger, is a spiral bound book, with questions to respond to for each day of the year. These answers would go a long way in writing your life story. However, I have checked all the large bookstores in the Portland/Salem, Oregon areas and nobody can find it. Did any of you get the same message and were you able to locate the book? If you can tell me where the message originated, maybe I can contact the sender and find out where the book can be located. Thanks. Twila

Hi, Don - I'd love to clear up your Jesse Jennings as well, especially if he had roots in Henrico, Va. Here are the Jesse Jennings I've discovered: Obediah Jennings and Eliabeth Dodson Jennings (who lived in Claiborne Co. at one point) had a son named Jesse Dodson, who was born Dec. 23, 1802 - but there's no mention of his going to Missouri, and his wife's name was Lucinda - so that's probably not your Jesse. Obediah and his family moved to Warren Co. TN around 1810. There was a Jesse Jennings of Henrico, Va b. 1750, who had a son Jesse, born 1783 (could have had another Jesse by 1800?). This Jesse had a son named Hezekiah (1772) as well, and I am trying to link them to Claiborne Co. but haven't so far. The older Jesse did marry a Mary, but the younger married Sallie Gordon. Other offspring of the older Jesse were: David (1777-79), Thomas (1782) Mary (1784) and Samuel (1774). It is interesting to note that in a 1799 Grainger Co. petition, one of the signers was a Jesse Jennings (of course, too old for your Jesse, but maybe his father?). He is listed with Noah, Royal (my line, I think), Thomas and William. I would love to know more about who these Jennings were. There were a couple of Jesse Jennings that left this part of Tennessee (Grainger/Claiborne) and headed for Kentucky as well. Finally, the only other Jesse in TN I've come across is also too old for yours: This is Jesse, the son of Robert Jennings and Catherine Sallee, b. 176 in Virginia and died in 1828 in Wilson Co., TN. I do know that at least one member of this family spent some time in Claiborne - Rial Cason Jennings. Hope this helps a little. Ann P.S. to Andrew: Your Robert Cross Jennings was the son of William Jennings (1763), who was the son of another Robert Jennings, born in 1736. This is the one I'm curious about serving in the Revolutionary war. Figured they might have come to Tennessee on land grants. PPS - I accidentally deleted an interesting email with the subject Am Revolionary Soldiers from someone named Mountain - was it from anyone in this group? Thanks. >>>>>original messages<<<<<

Jackie, I find this so interesting. One of my greats and some of her children were in KY. and were taken captive to Canada. I know this is not the one you are looking for, but it is interesting reading.

Looking for book or excerpt from book, New ENgland Captives Carried to Canada. This book is supposed to have information pertaining to Captivity JENNINGS, whose mother and siblings were captured. SHe was later born while in Captivity. J.B.

Hi, Garius - Thanks for the information on your ancestor in the Revolution!! What line of Jennings did he come from? One thing I find of great interest is how mobile all these families were during the settling of our country. Most of the families I'm tracing are from Virginia, but at least two of them have a mention of Maryland in their early roots. There is a strong Jennings lines from Connecticut. Does anyone know how/if this family moved across the country? What routes did other Jennings families take?

Dear Jennings List Cousins, I need your help to find my real great-grandfather, George W. Jennings, husband of Elizabeth C. Stevens. Elizabeth was born in AR in 1874. Their children were Henry b1864, George, Georganna, Abner, Margaret, Edmond, John Carroll, James, Lidy, Loualey, Rostus, Tina and Manson b 1889. George W. #1. Born Claiborne Co. TN 1839. Parents were Wm. H. born about 1804 and Sallie Gray. Grandson of Edward b VA and Sarah b NC. George W. #2. Born Wilson Co. TN 1839. Parents were Abner and Chloe Farris Lester Jennings. Grandson of Wm. and ? Cross Jennings. Great Grandson of Robert Jennings, Sr. George is found as an 11 year old boy on the 1850 Census of Benton Co. AR. I believe that George #2 is the correct one, but I need the proof that can eliminate George #1. Your help will certainly be appreciated. Pat Lefors Dawson, Granddaughter of Margaret Jennings Lefors

Dear Fellow Jennings Researchers - Which libraries and research centers have been most fruitful to you in your Jennings family research, espescially in Virginia and neighboring states?? I've hit a brick wall with my line and ask for your help. You may have seen my past postings regarding Lawrence Jennings whom I first found in New Jersey, a private in the Rev. War from Essex. He apparently had a change of heart because he then went to Ontario as a Loyalist. He married Hannah Slaght. Extensive research in New Jersey has been fruitless. Since so many of you have ancestors from Virginia and the neighboring areas, I'm thinking I should be looking in that area next. I will be doing business travel along the Atlantic coast within the next few months and am wondering if you can suggest any libraries or other sources where there are particularly strong collections in Jennings history. I'd love to take this line "across the pond" and there may be a bit of information in a library corner that would be just what I need. Many thanks, Donna Jennings Watkins [email protected]

Was wondering if their is anything on the Clairborne pioneering register on Jesse Jennings born around 1800 in Va was wondering who and when he married. His oldest child Mary was born in 1824 I believe. He resided in Tenn prior to coming to Mo before 1832.Have been unable to determine which of the many many jennings he belonged too.The Census records listed his wife given name as Mary. also,.Thanks Don Wilt

Does anyone have a Joanne Jennings in their line? She was born abt. 1870-1880 in Joplin Missouri. Thanks, Brenda S., Napa, CA

TO: Ann Crawford Brackett Here is a long-shot theory regarding the name Royal, which runs through out Jennings family as early as the 1700s. The Jennings are supposed to have come from Virginia, possibly Henrico, so I did some research in that area. Turns out I also found many families there named Royall, as well as Isham, another one of our recurrent family name. The Royalls and Ishams intermarried - and supposedly married into the Jennings line on at least one occasion (which would make Thomas Jefferson a cousin of sorts). For example: I found this Henry (Capt.) ISHAM (Sr.) ABT 1634 - ABT 1670 * TITLE: Sr. * BIRTH: ABT 1634, London,Northampshire,,England * DEATH: ABT 1670, Bermuda Hundred,,VA,USA * REFERENCE: 2242 Father: William ISHAM Mother: Mary BRETT Family 1 : Catherine BANKS * MARRIAGE: AFT 1660 +Mary ISHAM Henry ISHAM +Anne ISHAM Catherine BANKS ABT 1638 - BEF 1 Dec 1686 * BIRTH: ABT 1638, Canterbury,Kent,Canterbury Prov.,England * DEATH: BEF 1 Dec 1686, Bermuda Hundred,Henrico Co.,VA,USA * REFERENCE: 2243 Family 1 : Henry (Capt.) ISHAM * MARRIAGE: AFT 1660 +Mary ISHAM Henry ISHAM +Anne ISHAM Family 2 : Joseph ROYALL NOTE BOTH ROYALL AND ISHAM ON THE ABOVE - she married twice. ALSO, THESE WERE BIG NAMES IN HENRICO. I am now trying to figure out where the name STERLING came from, having both a Royal STERLING Jennings and a John STERLING Jennings in the family. Any ideas? Does anyone have any other ideas? I know that some of the Jennings researchers are studying the Bermuda 100 - I haven't seen any links to them, except for these name coincidences. If there is a Hezekiah or Obediah among those 100, let me know. Thanks. Ann Hill

Hi, all - For Janie: Regarding Lacy Jennings, child of Hezekiah Jennings, all I have is what is on the Claiborne Pioneers Family Report - that he/she married an UNKNOWN HARPER. No birth year given, but Anderson (brother) was born around 1796. That doesn't answer your question, does it - unless your ancestor was a Harper. If he was, let's compare other notes. :) Also - for the other cousins: I would like to know which Jennings served in the Revolutionary War. If you had an ancestor who did, please let me know. I already have Royal Jennings of Grainger County. Did Robert Jennings of Wilson County serve? In the East, there's a Simeon Jennings and Jonathan Jennings. If anyone knows who they served under, that would be great as well. Finally, I have found a Uriah Jennings, b. 1762 in Mass., son of Joseph Jennings (b. 1727) and Rachel Drury b. (1729). His siblings were: Martha, Susannah, Joseph, Rachel, Daniel and Hannah. Does anyone have information on who he married or where he lived during his life? Thanks again. Love reading about all those Jennings families!! Ann

Hi, Does anyone have information on John Jennings, born 1725? This John married Temperance Thompson. With so many John Jennings I am trying to sort them out. Maybe my John born 1720-24 was married twice. Hope to hear from anyone with any information on any John Jennings. Regards, Ruth
