Hi everyone, Thanks Patty, IF you do find the email addy for the lady in Oregon, will you please send to me. Let me explain [hopeful you, or someone, can help]: Felix Barney Kornegay [brother of my ancestor Miller] in Bibb Co AL had a g-daughter Martha C Murray 1856-1930 m: John Strickland [I have no other info for him]; Martha is d.o. Margaret M Kornegay & James Turner Murphy; Margaret is d.o. Felix Barney Kornegay. Bottom line: I'm trying to find more info and who the parents/ancestors are of John Strickland. Why is this important to me, since it's not my direct lineage? First, my mother descended from Strickland 's and my father from Kornegay's. Years ago when I was reviewing my FTM kinship report I noticed, beside showing the different degrees of kinship [for all descendants of Miller Kornegay & Nancy Ward], that it was now showing for the first time [never showed up before] that my father and mother were also some very distant kin!? And it blew me away. At first I thought how in the heck can this be possible ......it must be some type of erroneous calculation of the kinship report. However, when I set about analyzing my data base I found it must be from the above said Kornegay/Strickland marriage. I must add that when I updated my FTM program last year, I soon discovered they changed the kinship report...to one that does NOT give multiple types of kin due to 2 the two consecutive generations of 1st cousins marriages [that I have in my Kornegay lineage] that the old report did give. Needless to say I have gone round and round with FTM reps and the programmer's, voicing my disapproval that they would have the audacity to change the kinship report to a supposed updated newer version that is definitely far inferior/inaccurate to the older version...did it do any good? NO! LOL! ...so I remain angry about it. My argument was: it seems to it me it would be evident to anyone that someone who has 1st cousin marriage in their line would certainly have more degrees of kinship than one who doesn't. Patty, hope it's okay with you that I'm sending this to others. Kathlynn In a message dated 1/27/2015 2:03:39 P.M.

She was working on a KORNEGAY who married Mary Ann RAINES or RAINS . As you may remember James Martin KORNEGAY's brother John married the sister of my ancestor who was dau of Wyatt Y. KORNEGAY.

This was Hazel Anthony's line so I was able to help her a little. I think this is also the Bibb Co Al KORNEGAYs, that is Kathlyn and Matt's. Nice to hear from the KORNEGAY descendants again.
