Bob, You are quite right about everything you wrote. Jacob and his family went to St. Claire Co., MO. They are buried at the Freeman/Holsapple Cemetery there. I visited it a few years ago and noted their tombstones, as well as those of some of their family and in-laws. Pat McCann -- Patrick J. McCann, Jr. Dallas, TX CRESCIT SUB PONDERE VIRTUS

Gary et al.: William M. Holsapple was married to Nancy Bristow March 29, 1829 at Poplar Mountain, Clinton Co.n To the best of my knowledge, they had five children: Louisa A., Martha Ann., Lucrecia Katherine, Virginia Melissa, and Crawford Louis. I can account for their children and grandchildren, but not for their great-grandchildren. Certainly some of them are the unaccounted for Holsapples throughout Kentucky, but I have been unable to make any connections, especially with the Kentucky Holsapples to the west of Clinton Co. Help anyone. -- Patrick J. McCann, Jr. Dallas, TX CRESCIT SUB PONDERE VIRTUS

Who do you need in your search? I put them into a data base for a book I did on Fentress County. I may have some of the Clinton County names included, but I don't promise. I just know the Tennessee and Kentucky folks in Whitewright use to write back to the Fentress County newspaper and have articles in there about 2-3 times monthly. The migrant families and individual were mentioned and the reader got an idea of how much the individuals were homesick for their old homes. Also, the read gained an idea as to the daily life in Texas. Gary D.

My line : John Parmley - Rebecca Parmley m: Lewis Foust sr. : Lewis Foust jr. m: Telitha Phipps : Henderson Foust m. Avey Smith - Dorah Ellen Foust m. Marion Kidd . My Mom was Fronie Ellen Kidd m. Willie Guffey Dobbs . (Edna Dobbs) In 1778, John enlisted as a substitute for his father, Giles. At that time, he was living at home with his parents and was still there in 1781. In 1784 he was on the tax list in Wilkes county, NC. After the Revolutionary War, he marched to Georgia, where he remained for a year. Next, he moved to Hawkins Co., TN, where he resided for 8 years. Then it was on to Claiborne Co., TN for a year and from there into Cumberland Co., KY, for four or five years. Finally, he came to Wayne Co., KY, where he lived at Parmleysville in the eastern part of Wayne, and later about 1815 he moved on to the western part of Wayne, near the Clinton Co. border. John was a great hunter and hunted bear on the Clinch Mountain, coming to KY from the Clinch River. In the 1810 census of Wayne, was in Missouri for 1 year, but returned to Russell Co., KY, where he was in 1830 and 1838. John and Rebecca were amoung the founders of the Bethel Baptist Church on the Little South Fork, near Parmleysvill ! on the 3rd. Saturday in July 1810. He had bought land on the Little South Fork 19 December 1809 and was granted a letter of dismission from the Bethel Church in Steptember 1828. John sold land in Hawkins Co., TN, 18 September 1797. He was one of the men in the Counties of Washington and Sullivan in arrears of pay for services in the Revolutionary War. He had a Revolutionary War pension. (Edna Dobbs) The circumstances of his burial are interesting. None of his kids attended, as they were estranged because they didn't think he should have taken a child bride at age 80. The account goes on to tell how his body was taken to the grave on a sled - and that he was buried on the Pittman Farm, (his father-in-law by wife #2). (Lorna Gheen)

FYI . . . for all you good folks out there in Clinton County Land. Ancestry has completed indexing and digitizing nearly 24 million World War One Draft Registration Cards (1917-1918). To celebrate they are offering free access to this database with registration (your name and email address) from November 12th thru 25th, 2005. Just go to the webpage below and click on the WWI Draft Cards link near the top . . . http://www.militaryindexes.com/worldwarone/index.html In 1917 and 1918, approximately 24 million men living in the United States completed a World War I draft registration card. These registration cards represent approximately 98% of the men under the age of 46. The total U.S. population in 1917-1918 was about 100 million individuals. In other words, close to 25% of the total population is represented in these records. The WWI draft registration cards database can be an extremely useful resource because it covers a significant portion of the U.S. male population in the early twentieth-century. If you had family in the United States during WWI, you are likely to find at least one relative’s information within this large collection. In addition, these cards contain more than just names and dates; they contain significant genealogical information such as birthplace, citizenship status, and information on the individual’s nearest relative.
