While we're on the "Clyde Kilgores," I had an AUNT named Johnnie Clyde Kilgore, daughter of John Bryant Kilgore, son of James A. G. Kilgore, son of Elijah Kilgore. One of these days I'll climb over my "brick wall---Elijah Kilgore--- and find out WHO his brothers/sisters/PARENTS might have been. Have worked on it several years without success, but I keep trying. Elijah was born in 1815-16 in TN of VA-born parents (according to census). On the Kilgore list are MANY, MANY names that are the same as ELIJAH'S children and grandchildren, and I'm positive there MUST BE some relationships that exist between my Elijah and some of the TN Kilgores. I just can't document that fact yet. Ora Jane

Gail, My great uncle was Clyde Kilgore, son of Erasmus, son of James Armstrong Kilgore, son of Matthew Lassley Kilgore.

Doris, I got the newsletter today and would not have thought to try and search "voter records" or "bank records". Where would info be available to find old bank records? Also noticed on the back page the first entry is Jno. O. Kilgore and I think that is Kim Tyson's line. The Massie D. Kilgore looks familiar and they were from OH and I think they lived in KS. Strange how I can pick these out as if there were only a handful of Kilgore's. Also, what is interesting is the Clide or Clyde Kilgore son of George from OH as we have a Clyde Kilgore in our line and that is not a common name in our line and we wondered where it came from, not saying that this line is connected but interesting to read it. Hope you are having a good day and that you are doing better. Keep me posted!! Gail Meÿer Kilgore Casa Grande, AZ

Crave S Killgore 1909 Rosa KILLGORE 1908 SEQUATICLIE CO or City?? I have a CRAVEN S KILLGORE in my file but his wife's name is not ROSA. Can anyone pin this down for me. Roy M Killgore in Snowee Twin Falls ID

RANDY; You did it again----------------You forgot Handsome,Adorable,Loveable and the best of the KILGORE CLAN. The Kilgore Clan could not continue without you. Now, the newbies have the whole story concerning your contributions to the Kilgore name! Donna (Kilgore for real).

Dear newest members of this board, First of all, welcome! We're always delighted to have new victims, er, I mean, new cousins joining us on this journey of ancestral recovery. I should alert you to the fact, however, that some of our cousins on the board are, (how shall I say it?), a bit daffy. You'll hear them introduce all sorts of odd things like purple boxer shorts, kazoo bands, tin foil on your fingers and the like. Rest assured that I'm present, ready, willing and able to guide you through the tangled tapestry of the Kilgore board to a keener understanding of what it means to be a Kilgore today. Therefore, to help you, please follow these simple rules: 1. Trust only what you read from me. I'm a somber, solid citizen of the Kilgore board who can be counted on to steer you in directions guaranteed to make people notice you. 2. From time to time you'll hear from Allen Atkinson, a wonderful gentleman but a bit creaky in the bones. It is NOT accurate to say that Allen dated Ulysses S. Grant's sister, but he did study in the library with her by candle light. 3. Dd, Donna, Nell, Ora Jane and Hope are not the real names of Kilgore cousins. Each of them are high-stakes bond traders on Wall Street, but they didn't feel like they'd fit into our genealogy world like that, so they've created whole other Internet lives for themselves. We DO believe they are really Kilgores, but the DAR has yet to accept our paperwork acknowledging that. 4. Gail and Jerry, our board patrons, can be semi-trusted. That means everything they say about everything but me is true. There are plenty of other bits of advice I could offer you, but the archives contain much of it, and I invite you to uncover the vast treasures buried there. In addition to a whole lot of genealogy, there's the human side of us as well. Bar none, this is the best place to be on the Internet; the best people, the best info, the best board hosts, and the warmest family unit you'll run across anywhere. Welcome! Mischievously yours, Randy Kilgore www.dashingcharmingintelligentincrediblehunk.com

Helen, feel sure you have already received information as to what the rootsweb has on Robert Killgore, if not be glad to share, e-mail me at FBKillgore@aol.com Welcome, Frank Killgore

In case someone is looking for him, there is an EDWARD TO. KILGORE near the bottom of the article. Jenna ----- Original Message ----- From: Schumaker4@aol.com To: OHMEIGS-L@rootsweb.com Sent: Tuesday, December 04, 2001 7:21 PM Subject: [OHMEIGS] Meigs Co. Republican - Feb. 1, 1893 - Part 3 Meigs Co. Republican - Feb. 1, 1893 - Part 3 ============================================ LOCAL SIFTINGS We call attention to the real-estate card of Mr. R. D. RIGHTMIRE, of Springfield, Missouri. He was formerly a citizen of Meigs county, and known as an honest, upright business man. If you are inclined to invent in the West, write to Mr. RIGHTMIRE. The river bank was lined with sight-seers Sunday. But the frozen river refused to move until after dark, and the disappointment was great. Eggs are 40 cents a dozen; potatoes $1 per bushel; butter 25 cents per pound; hams 18 cents per pound. Did any one see a deep snow go off so gradually? Last Saturday morning Mr. Chap. BAKER found a garter snake which some one had just killed on the Rutland road near his house. - His snakeship perhaps came out to take a sleighride. Chas. A. LODER, is a great favorite here and brings a grand company with him, and one of the greatest novelties touring this county this season. Don't miss the "Delusion Dance." The Antiquity Mill Co. has been missing money from their safe for some time. They set a watch, and one day last week caught Henry BENTZ in the act of robbing the safe. Mr. BENTZ is an old citizen there, a church members, a leading Democratic Politician, and applicant for the Antiquity post office. The Mill Company compromised with the culprit, and let him go; but the grand jury may have something to say. Are you going to any point in the United States, or any other place? If so buy your railroad tickets at the K. & M. office, in Middleport. War rates to all points west, and best accommodations, and low rates to all points. Call on or write J. W. MARTIN, agent, Middleport, O. Don't forget the Concert by Jas. T. LEWIS Orchestra, Thursday evening, February 9th. Admission only 25 cents. The following persons united by letter with the Methodist Episcopal Church on last Sunday morning: Mr. C. W. HINDS, Mrs. C. W. HINDS and Mrs. L. C. TALBOTT. During the special services, thirteen person have united with the church. The meetings continue this week with increasing interest. We hear that the Juhler Works at Hartford City lost five barges by being cut down by the ice Sunday nights. It is only a rumor, and we cannot vouch for it. Will. C. RUSSELL, proprietor of the Epitome Coal Works, below town, lost one barge of coal Sunday night, cut down by the ice and sunk. Another barge, empty, was forced out on the shore by the ice, but will probably be saved. The New York supreme court decided against the Columbus, Hocking Valley and Toledo in their suit to recover $8,000.00 from ex-President BURKE and others. The union meetings of the Free Baptist and Presbyterian Churches of Middleport and continued this week at the Baptish church. The meetings have been largely at tended, and a good number have taken a stand for Christ. The "Delusion Dance" of the English twins, the sister Leigh, is one of the wonders of the age and must be seen to be appreciated. - They come here soon with "Oh! What a Night" and are worth the price of admission alone. Died, in Middleport, on Friday, January 27, 1893, Lucy, daughter of James GUTHRIE, aged about 16 years. She was a well respected young colored lady. She was a member of the A.M.E. Church. - Funeral services at the Methodist church, Sunday. Born, in Middleport, Saturday, January 28, 1893, a daughter to Dudley MCGRAW and wife. Mr. Edward T. KILGORE, a former well known and well liked passenger conductor on the Hocking Valley road, died some days since at his late home in Columbus. The steamer Louise, one of the BAY Bros. boats, was destroyed by fire Friday near Ironton. The Chevalier, Georgia and ferry boat had a narrow escape. Remember the 4th Grand Concert given by the James T. LEWIS Orchestra of 14 pieces, Thursday evening, February 8th. Admission only 25 cents. No extra charge for reserved seats. A dispatch states that ice 40 inches think is coming out of the Allegheny River. So boats would better keep close to shore for some time yet. continued in Part 4 I transcribed the above without changing the spelling, grammar or punctuation.

Hi Therese and all my cousins, Welcome to our renowned Kilgore board Therese!! I have signed Therese up on our board and hope someone can help her with her "brickwall." Here is a post I got from Therese: Hi Jerry, I found references to you all over the many Kilgore websites. Got your email address from the home page of the Kilgore Family in Georgia. I would like to be put on the Kilgore genealogy mailing list. I've been searching and searching and have found nothing that closely resembles my ancestors...there's a missing link somewhere I have yet to find. Here's some info on me...if you know anything about these folks, could you pass it on to me. I would be most grateful. Here's what I have on the Kilgore side: My name is Therese Kilgore, Phoenix, AZ My Father is Ronald Louie Kilgore, born in Anniston, AL on March 31, 1932, died September 28, 1988 His Father was Alvin Mann Kilgore of Anniston, AL (I think that was where he was born) born on July 8, 1901. (I have no further info on Alvin...who is parents were, etc...this is where the missing link comes in) Alvin Mann Kilgore married Ruth Louise Knighton of Anniston, AL on March 13, 1920 in Atlanta Georgia. Ruth was born March 28, 1904 in Anniston, AL Alvin & Ruth had 2 other children: Mary Catherine Kilgore born on April 14, 1921 in Anniston, AL, died May 2, 1963 Alvin Mann Kilgore Jr. born on February 14, 1928, died January 21, 1981 Alvin Mann Kilgore died August 19, 1959 Ruth Kilgore was born to Robert James Knighton and Clyde Elizabeth Morton. I inherited an old 1880's bible that has these names, birth and death dates listed (it's an old salesman's dummy bible). If you have any links or info, could you please pass them on. I have over 30 photos (the old metal kind) of people I know nothing about. The photos are from the 19th century (mid to late 1800's). Since my immediate family have all passed on, I have no clue who these people are. Let me know if we are related. Thanks for your time and patience.
