Subj: RE: [GERMANNA] LEFFLER OR MYERS who had migrated from Germany prior to 1790  Date: 1/7/2003 11:09:33 AM Eastern Standard Time From: <A HREF="mailto:GWilhite@abbeypress.com">GWilhite@abbeypress.com</A> Reply-to: <A HREF="mailto:GERMANNA_COLONIES-L@rootsweb.com">GERMANNA_COLONIES-L@rootsweb.com</A> To: <A HREF="mailto:GERMANNA_COLONIES-L@rootsweb.com">GERMANNA_COLONIES-L@rootsweb.com</A> Sent from the Internet (Details) I don't have much about Myers in the various spellings, and nothing about Leffler.  But I have spent some time looking into early migration routes to the Ohio Valley. I think you will find that the earliest settlers (around Revolutionary War time, and for many years later) traveled Southwest to the western tip of Virginia and crossed the Cumberland Gap into Kentucky and east Tennessee. If they didn't settle there, they traveled the Wilderness Road (do some reading on Wilderness Road and Cumberland Gap and you will find the whole story) to central and northern Kentucky.  There must have been some early river traffic from Pennesylvania, but Indiana, Kentucky and Ohio history textbooks don't mention much about early settlers traveling down the Ohio River from Pittsburgh, the primary line of settlement was from the south. Louisville was a natural crossroads for travel in all directions.  There was, and still is, a rock formation across the Ohio River at Louisville, this was a natural crossing point.  Visit Falls of the Ohio State Park on the Indiana side of the Ohio across from Louisville to get an idea of what the original falls were like.  For thousands of years the buffalo crossed at this point, the buffalo left broad clear trails that had been stomped into the ground for centuries.  The Buffalo Trace across Indiana and Kentucky was the nearest thing to a superhighway in 1800.  After the War of 1812 the traffic picked up considerably. I think the answer to your question is that the early settlers traveled by foot, horse and wagon across the Cumberland Gap and over the Wilderness Trail. (On a modern map, look at I-75 from Tennessee north to Lexington Kentucky to get a sense of the location) They may have taken the Buffalo Trace to the falls of the Ohio, across Indiana and beyond.  (Again on a modern map, look at I-64 from Lexington to Louisville and across Indiana to get a general sense of the location).  Some of them made their way to the Ohio River upriver from the falls where they build rafts and pirogues.  Others traveled overland to the falls and got on the river from there.  They didn't confine their river travels to just the Ohio River either.  Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana and Illinois are dotted with early settlements at the confluence of smaller rivers into the Ohio.  Early settlers were farmers who knew that there was good river valley land (that was less flood prone) to be found miles up the smaller rivers. It is a comfortable day's drive on the interstates, it took a couple generations for the area to become sparsely settled. Gerald Wilhite

I also looking for family in Elmswood Cemetery. My great grandparents are Judge Horace M. HASKINS (1843-1904) and his wife, Linda Elizabeth YEWELL (1844-1940). Linda is the daughter of Major Harrison YEWELL and Sarah Elizabeth LEWIS (I believe they may be buried there also. If anyone has information on either the HASKINS, YEWELL or LEWIS families...I would appreciate any information you may be willing to share. Thank you, Joleen Haskins Patrick

I am looking for information on the parents and siblings of John William THOMPSON, b.1823,KY. Married Sarah (Johnson) Williams in Daviess Co. KY, 1844, moved to TX ca. 1856.

That's a good possibility, but a scary thought. I cross my dates up more often than I like to admit. and our ancestors didn't have all the calendars etc to keep them straight.

That brings up an interesting question... with things the way they were back then (in a backwods area, no technology, etc.), how many of the dates that we have are actually accurate???

Does anyone know whether or not there still is a Civil War Roundtable of Vanderburgh Courthouse? When I left Evansville many years ago it was a thriving and hustling organization. I was a member and we had such speakers as Bell I. Wiley, Bruce Catton, and Gen. U. S. Grant, III. If it is no longer functioning would you know the name of any former members who I might contact?  Any help would be most gratefully appreciated.

Seems I didn't clarify myself. Hope this does. USGenNet is what is having problems. They provide the FREE USGenWeb sites that you use for states and counties. I was requesting help for them only. The site I furnished IS a temporary site for USGenNet update information which was provided. http://www.californios.us/usgn/ Rootsweb has no problem at all.

Let me clarify - Rootsweb was NOT asking in the email - it was totally me as a supporter of the genealogy world. I beg to differ with you though - Anyone who has tried to reach most of the USGenWeb sites that are housed on the server are aware of the problem and we - as County Coordinators have been getting regular updates. Please everyone - I just wanted to make you aware of the problems. As I said in my first sentence of the email. Delete if you are not interested. I will make no further statements on this - research it if you are interested in giving. If you are not interested in supporting all the genealogy sites then please delete this email and disregard statements sent by ANYONE regarding this.

I hope no one is offended by this request - if so please delete. This has to do with Rootsweb lists, free genealogy web sites, surname lists, county lists, etc. I'm sure you are all aware of the server breakdown which has most of the state and county websites down. They simply outgrew the server and - before money could be found to purchase a new server it crashed. The email lists were down too but are running on a patched server until the new server can be built and delivered and set up. To explain it better I will borrow from some of the email updates I have received: Update: The USGenNet server crashed the weekend just after Thanksgiving. USGenNet’s Board of Directors has voted unanimously to purchase a new server. The server has been ordered on Monday morning, 2 December, and will be delivered on or before December 9th. More specific information will be added here as it becomes available. This is the temporary USGenNet info site: http://www.californios.us/usgn/ USGenNet’s financial need is an ongoing one. Even after money is raised to pay for the server, there is the ongoing expense of Bandwidth. USGenNet currently spends $600.00 every month to keep the hosted sites online, and by January, 2003 we will be spending even more. We need your continuing support! Donations may be made by mail and sent to our Treasurer: Rhoda Fone 999 Bridgeport Way Rio Vista, California 94571 [Please make checks payable to USGenNet] Donations may also be made through PayPal. Paypal payments should be made to: usgtreas@aol.com USGenNet is grateful for every donation received, in any amount. Every dollar donated helps us keep genealogical and historical data freely available to all. Every penny donated is spent on operating expenses and equipment. USGenNet is staffed by volunteers and pays no salaries. Folks we have depended on USGenNet to provide us all with FREE genealogy information, it's time we pitched in a bit to help all we can in this time of need. Please consider donating.
