HI RUTH. HOPE YOU GET BETTER SOON---LOVE BARBARA

Hi Ruth, Sorry to hear about your accident with the lawn mower. I bet it is a hard to write left handed when you have done it right handed for 74 years. Take care of yourself now. Sue in CA

Hello KORNEGAY researchers: Recently I joined GENMA in search of my MOZINGO surname. I noticed a post concering the surname PREFONTAINE. I know from reading post one of the KORNEGAY ancestors married a FONTAINE. I find it fascinating the changes names undergo. Also, I would like to share this with all. From my POINTERS magazine (Italian genealogy) There was a ship named SS Albert KONIG...Many of the Italian immigrants reached America via Hamburg, Germany and other ports. I had noted from past post someone mentioned the name KONIG as possibly our original name for KORNEGAY. Many interesting possibilities. Gayle W. Licari

E.T. - In a conversation long ago, I think I remember Aunt Mildred mentioning to me that you had several very old family photos that she'd given you. She remembered them as being large and bulky and more impressive for the frames than anything else. Any chance you still have them? If so, could we perhaps arrange a meeting so that I could obtain a copy in digital format?

Sue and Ruth - In updating information on the family lines, I'm caught in the uncertainties of a birth date for Jacob Kornegay. The actual year doesn't much matter as we can get around that with the caveat "Abt", but what does matter (at least to page layout) is the order in which Old George's sons were born. Was it John, Jacob, George, and then William or John, George, Jacob, and William? Or maybe even John, George, Paul, and Ringo? I will bow to your considered opinion and will update the page accordingly. However, I'd like to avoid the cardinal sin of genealogists of actually writing history acording to what I think it ought to be. Jerry ******************************************* Jerry Quinn 12 El Paso Court Hampton, VA 23669 USA (757) 851-0027

Dear Cousins - I have spent most of today adding data to our family web site. Please look it over at your convenience and let me have some feedback. I'm very reluctant to add names and data of people still living, but will go right up that generation. Take a look, Sandra, and see what you think about YOUR line. I have data on two family reunions and would like to add more to that page. If you have any data on reunions and would like to have it posted, please let me know. I apologize if you've sent me stuff already and I haven't included it, but you know how it goes. I have developed a system that should make things easier to shoehorn stuff in.

Sue, Thank you for the information on my line of the KORNEGAY family. Unfortunately, I do not have my more immediate family information with me in Switzerland, so there are some dates that I will not be able to fill in until I'm back in the States next year. Here are a few that I could remember: 5 Margaret KORNEGAY b: Abt. 1917 5 Ralph Lee KORNEGAY b: 21 Mar 1919 in Mount Olive, North Carolina d: 22 Dec 1993 in Mount Olive, North Carolina +Janet Winslow RUTLEDGE b: 09 Dec 1921 in Goldsboro, North Carolina d: Abt. 1982 in Mount Olive, North Carolina 6 Juanita Claire b: 28 Aug 1942 in Goldsboro, North Carolina +James PARKS b: 02 Aug 194? 6 Irene Kelly b: 24 Jul 1945 in Goldsboro, North Carolina +Al GAUDETTE b: ? 6 Robert Lee b: 10 Aug 1948 in Goldsboro, North Carolina +Josie Kay BOURGEOIS b: 17 Sep 1945 in Portsmouth, Virginia All the best, Robert -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Robert L.

Sorry for not getting back to you sooner. Yes, Aunt Lib was doing research for years on the eligibility of her daughters for the DAR. She died about 5 years ago and about 2 summers ago I was able to go through her papers being safeguarded by my cousin Libba Ann Kornegay Pate, presently living in Fayetteville, NC. Aunt Lib had collected some fascinating stories about the eastern NC branches of the Kornegay tree. I am not familiar with the history of John Kornegay and I hope to reexamine her files when I'm back in NC next year. Thank you so much for the information on my side of the family.

Dear Cousins - Okay, let's examine this "flame" situation that's burning out of control for what it really is. Did I "flame" somebody as has been alledged? Truthfully, why would I even bother or be so childish to begin with? Quite obviously, Eddie and now Donna (with quite a vengeance, I might add) have taken it upon themselves to be the arbiters of conduct on the listserv. Let me share with you the message traffic that generated my involvment in this fracas. The following snippet (posted June 14th) is the message thread that caused Eddie and then Donna to become so defensive: ************************* Eddie - Whoa! Sweetie, you're taking this much too seriously. If I inadvertently slighted you, then I apologize profusely. If I had INTENDED to slight you, your ears would STILL be buzzing. Please understand that to most of us; the people on the list are total strangers, faceless and anonymous. With the volume of email traffic we're generating these days, it's very hard to keep up with who's zooming who. I'll publically give you credit for the genforum.

(Yes, more Latin.) I was going through some of the old posts (isn't the traffic lately enormous?) and I realized that Eddie was the one who pointed out the GenForum link and I mistakenly gave the credit to Sheila. Sorry. Jerry ******************************************** And now more public diatribes from Donna and Eddie! I ask you? Who's flaming who? So, Donna (yeah, I still have your address) what do you have to say about this? Are you going to swell up in righteous anger and huff and puff some more and condemn us all to perdition? Go ahead. It's people like you that burned the Salem witches. Jerry Jerry Quinn 12 El Paso Court Hampton, VA 23669 USA (757) 851-0027

I feel I owe everyone an apology for my reaction to EDDIE's post to me. I didn't count to 10, but in this case I would have had to count to 100 not to respond. I don't feel I have flamed a soul on this list serv or any other list serv I belong too. Adults should not behave this way, but when I have done nothing wrong I must defend myself as I did in this case. I must explain I forwarded a plea of help for a 6 year old child dying from cancer if this offended anyone I am sorry use the delete button and go about your business. It is hard for me to conceive or preceive anyone being so SELFISH or PETTY about this type of situation. My friend Nancy and I both buried our daughters in 1991. Dee Dee and Donna passed away from Fanconi Aplastic Anemia, a genetic killer. So we are both committed to helping others when we can, as in this case, again, if this offended anyone, I can't help it. I felt the need to explain this situation because I recall a few weeks ago Eddie's sister, Donna jumped all over Sheila. I don't know what the problem is but don't come knocking at my door when I have done nothing wrong. I will defend myself. It is my right to do so. Gayle W. Licari

E.T.K: Thank you very much for confirming this Heritage Book information. Sue: Glad it was helpful to you. Pat Hoffman

Hi Pat, Thanks for the expansion on Nichodemus Kornegay and Alice Goodson. Sure helps to get a bit more to input and sometimes to get dates with places too. Sue in CA

Sue: There is also an item in the Heritage Book that I have a few pages from on an Edd and Gladys HERRING KORNEGAY, written by Nelda Kornegay Smith, she says," Edd b. 19 Jun 1891 near the banks of the Northeast River at what is now Albertson, NC; his father was Nichodemus KORNEGAY and his mother was Alice (GOODSON) KORNEGAY. His mother died in childbirth with her 13th child, leaving my father and his spinster sister to care for this large family.

Hey Pat, Thanks for confirming what I had in my database on Caleb Kornegay. Sure is nice to know that once in a while, I get something right, afterall. Yeah! Sue in CA
