    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: CREECH Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/3AB.2ACI/6858.1.1.1.1.2.2.1 Message Board Post: Hello, If you have not been at this very long and you don't have some sort of genealogy software such as FamilyTreeMaker, you really need to run out and get one. It really is the only way you can keep track of all of the information you will be gathering over the years. And, it will provide you places to add in your documentation of things as they come to you. Here is some more census information on your family. I can now see that the children, Georgie B., Dwight E. (your father); James S. and Forshea that I have already given to you were the children of Violet DOCKERY. The census records only go up through 1930 so all these births are way past that cut off. You have stated that your g-grandfather, Hascue DOCKERY went to kill your g-grandmother BUT I STILL DON"T HAVE HER NAME FROM YOU!!!! From the story, this UNK. wife was pregnant with Violet Jewell DOCKERY. Violet's father was executed for the killing of Joe JENKINS and his wife and another person. On the 1930 Harlan Co. Fed. Census, there are these two listings which are both your family: Dwelling 34-36 - Dist. #2 DIXON, Dewey, head, 31, mar. at 20, b. KY; parents b. KY - coal miner . .Hannah, wife, 28, mar. at 17, b. KY; parents b. KY (she was a CREECH!!!) . .Clifford, son, 9, b. KY . .Elmer, son, 7,b. KY (per KBI b. 11-26-1921 in HC) . .Charline, dau, 6, b. KY (per KBI Charlsia b. 4-21-1924 in HC) . . Vicey, dau, 4 yrs 3 months, b. KY (per KBI Vina M. b. 1-7-1926 in HC) . .Mary, "sister", 15, single, b. KY CREECH, Mary Alice, niece, 9, single, b. KY; parents b. KY Regarding this Hannah CREECH, she was abt. 1903 and mar. 21 Mar 1916 to Dewey DIXON. She had many others brothers and sisters. Her parents were; Joseph CREECH b. Mar 21, 1878 in Harlan Co.; died Mar 8, 1948 ; mar. 1899 in Harlan Co. to Nancy CLOUD who was b. Dec. 1883 and was the dauther of James and Jane CLOUD. Getting you back yet another generation on Hannah CREECH's side, she was one of many children of: Martin CREECH b. Dec. 6, 1857 in Harlan Co.; d. Jul 19, 1936; mar. May 7, 1875 in Harlan Co. tp Patience WYNN, b. Sep 1, 1860; d. March 21, 1923. This is all very interesting because another person just today was looking for this same line. Hannah CREECH's father was Martin CREECH and Martin CREECH b. 1857 was a s/o the Rev. John H. CREECH, civil war vet b. Oct 9, 1833 in Harlan Co.; d. Jun 18, 1905; mar. June 4, 1854 to Mary Ann KILBURNE b. Jul 24, 1836; d. Aug 8, 1903. John H. was a s/o Elijah Lee CREECH and Sarah DAY. Next generation back is: Jonathan CREECH mar. to Polly ANGLIN. Back to the 1930 Harlan Co. Fed. census where living next dwelling is: Dwelling 33-35 CREECH, Joe, head, 52, mar. at 21, b. KY; parents b. KY - log woods timberman . .Nancy, wife, 44, mar. at 14, b. KY; parents b. KY (nee CLOUD) . .Roy, son, 18, single, b. KY . .Ray, son, 15, b. KY (per KBI b. 3-14-1916) . .Lawrence, 11, son, KY . .Sarah, 9, (per KBI : Sarah E. b. 7-26-1921) . .Nettie, dau, 7, b. KY (per KBI b. 3-22-1924 - Nettie M.) . .Janinta?, 3 yrs, 3 months, dau, b. KY not on census: per KBI: Miradda b. 3-21-1927 to Nancy CLOUD in Harlan Co. Hope this helps. Joyce Taylor Collins La Palma, CA
