My William Jennings was born in Grainger County abt. 1865. He was the father of my gmother and after the 1880 census I have not been able to trace him. I do not think he was married to my gmother's mother. She told the family William was known for being away for days or weeks trying to find work. I dont know if your William is a connection. I need more information. Janice Tsweetjal@aol.com

Hello, I've hesitated to even get into the Jennings line because I have so little information. I'm trying to find out about a George Butler Jennings born in South Carolina? around 1853 -1855, married Vesta Ellen Wolfe, lived in Iowa, died in Washington state or California between 1935-1940. The only distinguishing thing about him would be that middle name, Butler. Thank you. Dee

My grandfather was the son of a William Jennings in TN. He was born in 1889 in Nashville. Do we have a connection. ELAINE

My William Jennings was born in TN and I think his father was James Jennings. This was told to us by my gmother because William was her father. I dont think your family is part of this family. I could be wrong thought. Janice Tsweetjal@aol.com

Looking for information on Mary Elizabeth Jennings b. abt 1840 in Illinois. She married James Whisnand 1860 in Piper City, Warren Co. Illinois.

Dear Diane, Hello. The William JENNINGS, Sr., born: abt. 1668 in Rappahannock, Co., VA, (who married Mary WILLOUGHBY we believe,) was the son of John JENNINGS, Sr., immigrant, who was born on May 22, 1640 in St. Martin's Parish, Birmingham, Worcester County, Virginia, and married Margaret PAYNE, believed to be the daughter of John PAYNE, immigrant, born: abt. 1615 in Yorkshire, England, who immigrated to Rappahannock County, Virginia, and married Margrett/Margaret ? whom some of us believe was Margrett/Margaret ROBINSON, daughter of Richard ROBINSON, immigrant in the early 1600's to the Tidewater area of Virignia, who was the uncle/great uncle of Christopher ROBINSON, immigrant.

Please bear in mind that there may be pieces of incorrect information that could be in the following. If you find something that you know to be incorrect or missing information that fills the gaps, please let me know. Just noticed the name of PEEBLES in the WATTS information that was sent to the group list for the WATTS newsletter and wanted to see if anyone has any information on this family below. At this time, and thanks to recent JORDAN, PEEBLES, HERRINGTON information that was so kindly sent to me by JORDAN researcher, Lonnie KNIGHT, I have connected with some new information and I am writing most specifically regarding the information at the bottom of this email regarding the possible JORDAN connections that there might be for Rachel JORDAN, (my pat. 4th gr. grmthr.,) born: abt. 1750 in ?, prob. Virginia, and prob. in Richmond Co., Virginia, and I believe that she is related somehow to the William JORDAN that was in Richmond Co., Virginia in abt. 1734/35 and is mentioned in conjunction with the will of Mrs. Ann KELLY JENNINGS/Mrs. William JENNINGS, Jr., born: abt. 1696 in VA, poss. Richmond Co., (daughter of (Captain) John KELLY, born: abt. 1660 in ?/VA?, (son of Penelope ? and Matthew (1) KELLY, born: abt. 1640 in ?, (parents: ??, ) and Amy DONIPHAN, born: abt. 1662 in VA, (daughter of (Captain) Alexander DONIPHAN, born: abt. 1640 in Plymouth, Devonshire, England, (parents: ??,) and his 1st wife, Amie/Amy PARTRIDGE, (sister of Samuel PARTRIDGE, Sarah PARTRIDGE, Mary PARTRIDGE, and Elizabeth PARTRIDGE,) ((Capt.) Alexander "Alex" DONIPHAN married as his 2nd wife: Margaret MOTT, and as his 3rd wife, Susannah ?)) It is possible that Rachel JORDAN may possibly have had descendancy from a BAILEY/BAILY/ aka BAILLIE line, and there were several that married into the JORDAN lineage from 1600's VA through into the 1700's,) but this is speculation based on the name of her son whom is my paternal 3rd great grandfather, Bailey JENNINGS, born: abt. 1789 in VA, prob. Richmond Co., who married as his 1st wife, my pat. 3rd great grandmother, Kitty EARLE, born: abt. 1795 in VA, (daughter of Tabitha WILLIAMS, born: 1766 in North Farnham Parish, Richmond Co., VA, and my paternal 4th great grandfather, Samuel EARLE, IV, (RS/Sgt.,) (2nd son of his name, Samuel, IV,) born: January 20, 1760 at "Town Run" Plantation, Fauquier Co., VA,) (appears to have settled Christian Co., KY with Moses McWATERS/WATERS, and Daniel BOONE and family,) and Rachel JORDAN's husband was John JENNINGS, Sr., (RS,) born: abt. 1748 in Richmond Co., Virginia, (in South Carolina during Revolutionary War and then relocated to Christian Co., KY,) son of Sarah MOORE/MORE? and Edward Salley JENNINGS, Sr., born: 1720 in Richmond Co., Virginia, (son of the aforementioned Ann KELLY and William JENNINGS, Jr..) And the aforementioned Mrs. Amy DONIPHAN KELLY married as her 2nd husband, Edward RANSDELL. William JENNINGS, Jr., born: abt. 1695 in Richmond Co., VA, died in 1733 in Richmond Co., VA, (son of Mary WILLOUGHBY and William JENNINGS, Sr., (son of Margaret PAYNE, (believed to be daughter of John PAYNE, Sr., immigrant, born: abt. 1615 in Yorkshire, England, immigrated to Rappahannock Co., VA,) and wife, Margaret/Margrett, believed to Margaret ROBINSON, daughter of Richard ROBINSON, early 1600's immigrant to Tidewater area of Virginia.) And Mrs. Margaret PAYNE JENNINGS married 2nd husband: Christopher EDRINGTON, Sr.. Upon the death of Mrs. Ann KELLY JENNINGS, only abt. a year after the death of her husband, William JENNINGS, Jr., (both dying in their mid-30's,) their children were placed under the guardianship of their uncles, Augustine JENNINGS, Matthew (2) KELLY, and Alexander Doniphan KELLY. And William JORDAN was mentioned at one point regarding the placement process of the children but I don't have know he relates to Rachel JORDAN yet. The aforementioned Augustine JENNINGS was married to Hannah WILLIAMS and Alexander Doniphan KELLY was a witness to her will so there may also be further connections between her family and the JORDAN family and her WILLIAMS family is somehow connected to the WILLIAMS - BALL - WASHINGTON family and any of those may or may not be connected to either/or my WILLIAMS families of the 1600's England > New England > Virginia, BILLINGTON - WILLIAMS lineage, or the 1600's England > New England > Virginia, PEMBERTON - WILLIAMS lineage. I am sending this over to the LOTTCircle list as well since the WATTS and so many others that connect to this lineage including my MYRICK, GRANTHAM, HERRINGTON/HARRINGTON, GRAVES, DICKENS, aka DICKINS, DICKSON, DICKERSON, PIERCE, HATTEN/HATTON, LIGHTFOOT and connecting BARLOW, etc. lines come into play here as well. (Not mentioning all of these names below at this time, however, to keep it as short as possible but there are numerous connections.) Some of the questions that we all have may not be answered until we start taking a much broader look at some of these 'missing pieces' due to the extreme amounts of intermarrying since before these families came to these shores mostly in the early to mid-1600's into Virginia, primarily, but with some coming into New England first and then into Virginia. The Phebe Jordan HERRINGTON, (see information at the bottom of this email for short family tree info,) who married Mark Columbus "Lum" JORDAN, (son of Peebles Columbus JORDAN and Charlotte WELDON,) was the daughter of Martha Jane BARLOW and James Madison "Matt" HERRINGTON, (son of Samuel HERRINGTON, (son of William HERRINGTON, Sr., born: bef. 1755 in Craven Co., North Carolina, who 2 X my 4th great grandfather, as the father of two of the brothers of Samuel HERRINGTON who are my paternal 3rd great grandfathers: (1.) William HERRINGTON, Jr., born: abt. 1794 in New Hanover Co., North Carolina, who married Cynthia "Sina" GRANTHAM, born: abt. 1800 in SC?/NC?, on the Robeson County, North Carolina and South Carolina border, (believed now to be the daughter of Elizabeth AMMONS, (daughter of Elizabeth PARKER, (trying to find out if she is related to my Jeremiah "Jerry" PARKER, born: 1795, and the PARKERs that married into the HERRINGTON lineage,) and John (2) AMMONS , of 1700's Robeson Co., NC,) and Richard GRANTHAM, Jr., son of Richard GRANTHAM, Sr.,) and Wm., Sr.'s 2nd son, (2.) Enoch HERRINGTON, born: abt. 1800 in New Hanover Co., NC, who married Harriet STUCKEY, born: abt. 1802 in AL, (whose sister, Jane STUCKEY, married a man named Jeremiah PIERCE whom I believe is a brother or cousin/nephew of my Elizabeth PIERCE, born: 1790 in 96th District, South Carolina, who married William MYRICK, parents of my 2nd great grandfather, William H. "Billy" MYRICK, born: 1827 in Jones County, (later Jasper Co.,) who married Phoebe Catherine HERRINGTON, born: April 1834 in MS, (daughter of the Cynthia "Sina" GRANTHAM and William HERRINGTON, Jr. shown above,) and their son, Calvin Pierce "Callie" MYRICK, born: 1858 in Jasper County, MS, married his 3rd cousin, Harriet Katherine "Hattie" HERRINGTON, aka HARRINGTON, born: 1868 in MS, Covington Co. prob., (daughter of my paternal 2nd great grandfather, Isham Daniel HERRINGTON, aka Isom Daniel HARRINGTON, born: Dec 1828 in Covington Co., MS, (son of Enoch HERRINGTON and Harriet STUCKEY above,) and 1st wife: Jane/Rebecca Jane DICKENS, aka DICKINS, (usually seen as Rebecca Jane DICKSON/DICKERSON,) born: 1828 in MS, (daughter of Catherine GRAVES, born: 1800/abt. 1800 in Georgia, (daughter of William W.

GRAVES, and her daughter, Jane DICKINS, born: 1828 in MS, (aka DICKENS, aka Rebecca Jane DICKENS, aka DICKSON/DICKERSON, who married Isham Daniel HERRINGTON, aka Isom Daniel HARRINGTON, who is found at the age of 19 years old in that same 1850 Covington Co., MS census just about 3 or 4 lines away in the household of John McCRANEY, aka McRANEY, whose McCRANEY/McRANEY family is married into the GRAVES-DICKENS, aka DICKINS family at least once with the Nancy Ann GRAVES, born: April 18, 1821, (daughter of John GRAVES and Marian(m)/Miriam(n) F.

Marzenia HARRINGTON, etc., who was the daughter of Enoch HERRINGTON and Harriet STUCKEY and Marcena was the sister of my aforementioned paternal 2nd great grandfather, Isham Daniel HERRINGTON, aka Isom Daniel HARRINGTON, who married as his 1st wife: Jane/Rebecca Jane DICKENS, aka DICKINS, aka Rebecca Jane DICKSON/DICKERSON, born: 1828 in MS, (daughter of the aforementioned Mrs. Catherine GRAVES DICKENS/DICKINS, (sister of John GRAVES,) (children of Nancy ? and William W.

THE WORM'S EYE VIEW: EASY DUZ IT by Beth Maltbie Uyehara BUYE@aol.com Hi. My name is Beth M. U., and I'm a geneaholic. My story's not a pretty one. I am sharing it here in the hope that it may help others avoid my pitiful fate. If you, too, are addicted to genealogy, I want you to know that you are not alone. There are thousands of us worldwide struggling in the daily battle against this cunning, baffling and powerful addiction. There was something "different" about me from the get-go. Looking back, the signs were there for all to see. Even as a child, when relatives threw old Daguerreotypes in the trash, I would fish around among the coffee grounds and egg shells and pull them out. When old letters or diaries were discovered in musty trunks, I stayed up all night reading them. Obits, report cards, discharge papers, photos of unknown people: I hoarded them all. I didn't care what kind of document it was, or who it concerned -- if it was remotely connected to "family," I had to have it. I'm making no excuses. I had a good upbringing. Genealogy certainly doesn't run in my family -- I come from a long line of people who could take their ancestors or leave them alone. Yes, there were rumors of an aunt on my father's side who "did a little research on weekends," but she covered her tracks well, and I have never been able to prove for certain that she was a geneaholic. Aside from that one suspect, my relatives were all what we call "social genealogists." For them, a colorful forebear or two were good for party conversations, to be chuckled over at family gatherings, and that was it. Not me. Right from the beginning, I was out of control. I could never stop with just one or two ancestors. Every ancestor I found triggered an insatiable craving in me for two more, and four more after that, and eight more after that. I could not stop once I got started. Eventually, genealogy took over my life. Bouts of compulsive research would leave me babbling incoherently, slumped exhausted, sometimes barely conscious, at a microfilm reader in some darkened room, surrounded by other addicts satisfying their own shameful cravings for genealogical kicks. Many are the times I've been thrown out of a library at closing time, kicking and screaming, begging for just five minutes more, just "one more ancestor for the road." It was humiliating. As the years went by, things went from bad to worse. It was an endless downward spiral. I found myself sneaking from library to library in distant parts of town, even in other cities and states, searching for the ultimate high -- that mysterious immigrant ancestor, whose identity would make everything fall into place. I hit bottom one hot August day in a cemetery in a far-off state. How I got there doesn't matter. Let's just say that after much research, I had located the grave of an ancestor who -- according to family legend -- had died in some kind of accident. As I stared at the weathered, old tombstone, wondering how I could find out how he had died, the thought occurred to me: "I could dig him up and see." Immediately, I recoiled, aghast. "Eeeeeuuuuuuu," I cried, "yuk! That's gross." That's when I knew I needed help. Since that moment of clarity, I've joined numerous genealogy support groups where we offer each other strength and hope, along with research tips and potluck dinners. And I have finally admitted, to myself and to other human beings, that I am powerless over genealogy and my research has become unmanageable. It may be too late for me. But, science has found that young family historians -- those who are, as yet, only potential geneaholics -- can sometimes stop in time. Answer these questions to see if you are in the early stages of addiction. * Home: Has genealogical paperwork taken over any room in your house? * Friends: Is genealogy interfering with your social life? Do people edge away from you at parties when you burst into tears over the 1890 U. S. census? * Family: Do your relatives' eyes glaze over when you explain your latest research? Do you find dead people more fun than live ones? * Work: Is genealogy interfering with your job? How many hours of each workday do you spend on the Internet, or checking your RootsWeb e-mails? * Marriage: Has your spouse ever asked you, "Aren't you done yet? How far back are you planning to go?" * Health: Are you starting to show the physical and mental signs of geneaholic deterioration, such as red-rimmed eyes, a loss of interest in current events, a shortened attention span for non-ancestral topics, excessive viewing of the History Channel? If you answered yes to even one of these questions, you are on the road to genealogical addiction. You must not research even one more ancestor! You must stop NOW, before it's too late! When you feel an overwhelming urge to research, repeat the following until the urge goes away: "My mother found me in a cabbage patch. My mother found me in a cabbage patch. My mother found me in a cabbage patch." Good luck and God help you.

Is anyone researching a Daniel Jennings and a Teresa Ann Shoemaker married 6-6-1833 in Fayette Co. Ga. Sandy

In correction of the posting earlier on Elijah and Rachel. They both WERE born in 1834. However, the marriage date should read July 23, 1853 not 1823 Wishing you ancestral searching success, Debbie Jennings Please check websites below: Sweet Owen County IN <A HREF="http://www.angelfire.com/in4/sweetowen/">http://www.angelfire.com/in4/sweetowen/</A> Franklin CountyVermont Genweb <A HREF="http://www.rootsweb.com/~vtfrankl/Franklin.html">Franklincounty VT </A> Kentuckiana Home <A HREF="http://www.angelfire.com/ky3/kentuckianahome/">http://www.angelfire.com/ky3/kentuckianahome/</A>
