I recently discovered what a Melungeon is, and that I possibly am one. Anyway, I am trying to find info on Lula Goins who had a daughter named Ellen M. Spears. I found the birth record. Ellen was born August 1926 in Lechter county, KY. I am guestimating that Lula would be around 20 something, so she was probably born around early 1900's. I think maybe if Lula is a nickname, her real name may be Talulla. Ellen evertually married my grandfather. Please any help would be Greatly appreciated. Clarknrigsby@hotmail.com Thanks

Surnames: Rigsby Spears Neon KY Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/FBB.2ACE/666.1.1.1 Message Board Post: Deb: Thanks - I have recently discovered more info about Neon KY and the link. Some of my prior info was off. I have traced my grandfathers line back a few generations, but its grandma who's giving me trouble. Since you have been doing this a while it seems, maybe you could give me a few pointers. It seems her name has some discrepancies. My mother says her name was Eleanor Marie Spears. My cousin says she went by Marie. Also I understand from my research that Spears and Sparks are sometimes confused. She may or may not have had a brother named William. It also happens to be my Grandfather's name (her husband). My Great Grandfather was a coal miner. They were from Charmco WV area. Stands to reason with the coal industry in Neon KY , Lechter co. thats how they got to this area. The NEON KY is a definete. The rest is making me bonkers. Any help would be great. __THANKS

Can anyone give me a definitive list of the children of William Martin and Maryland Hall? William is s/o Emily Ritter Sergent and Allen Martin, b. July 18, 1884, d. October 31, 1934. Maryland was born c. 1895; I have no death date.

Lute Martin, November 13, 1919 Delia Martin, April 24, 1920 (There may be a mistake on these last two because the dates are so close, it's physically impossible for Maryland Hall to have given birth to both of them unless one died prematurely and was named.) >From Letcher County Births, 1921-1930, I have the following children: Evo (Eva?)
