I am looking for a connection between the Rhodeham/Rhoadham/Rhoadhaven G. Bryant (born circa 1799) family (or more probably his ancestors, possibly Jesse Bryant and Mary Hill Nelson Bryant married in Prince Edward County, Virginia, August 14, 1782 ) and the Gregory family presumably in Smith County, Tennessee. I believe that Rhodeham's middle name may have been Gregory. Could Bry Gregory possibly be Bryant Gregory? Here is a little background information: Rhodeham was married to Lucy Ann Stewart (died December 20, 1843), daughter of Alexander Stewart (brother of John Stewart and 8 others). Rhodeham died March 5, 1851. If anyone knows where they are buried, I would appreciate you sharing that information. Rhodeham's children, those who did not die before 1851, ended up in Monroe County, Kentucky. Rhodeham owned property in Smith County, Tennessee as early as 1827, but does not appear in any census until the 1850 census in Macon County, Tennessee. I am deducing that the property he owned in Smith County was in the part of Smith County which became Macon County and may have gone back to Sumner County. It was on Goose Creek. Any help from anyone on this family would be appreciated. Thank you.

Looking for any information about the parents or siblings of these two found in the 1850 Macon TN Census. One of his sons Ira moved to Monroe KY. Thanks. Glen Horn
In 1880, Philip Penn Carter and family were living in the Massey District 5 of Monroe County, among many other members of my husband's family who straddled the Monroe and Allen County lines. Can someone tell me the location of this district at that time, and is it the same today? Thank you. Born in 1834, "Penn" Carter was the twin brother to my husband's great great grandfather, Joseph T. "Dode" Carter.

Family History Center Guests and LDS Church Members Will Receive Free Access to More Family History Records This is a radical new offering for anyone wishing to receive free access to the world's largest commercial online genealogy databases. Earlier this week, FamilySearch.org announced plans to collaborate with several commercial family history organizations to share records, tools and other resources to allow more people to build, preserve and share their family trees online. (You can read that announcement at http://goo.gl/vL3Bj7 while the complete announcement is available at https://familysearch.org/node/2523.) Another part of the agreement has been announced at the 2014 RootsTech conference in Salt Lake City: free access will be granted to Ancestry.com, FindMyPast.com and MyHeritage.com in LDS Church family history centers worldwide. Anyone may access these commercial web sites at no charge by visiting a nearby Family History Center. You may find your nearest center at https://familysearch.org/locations/centerlocator. In addition, members of the LDS Church will be granted free subscriptions to Ancestry.com (the world edition subscription), MyHeritage.com (plus subscription) and FindMyPast.com (plus subscription), accessible from any location, including in-home access.

Rabbits Unearth Ancient Treasures at English Landmark Here is a new term: archaeobunnies. It seems that rabbits in England have dug up something that archaeologists were previously unaware of: artifacts dating back 5,000 years Land's End, the westernmost point of Great Britain. Land's End called in Big Heritage, a British nonprofit that specializes in archaeology, to further investigate the items uncovered by the "archaeobunnies." Big Heritage found that the artifacts were flint tools, hide scrapers and arrowheads that dated back at least 5,000 years. Land's End then commissioned a thorough archaeological investigation that revealed a Neolithic passage grave, burial mounds dating to the Bronze Age and a hill fort and a series of field systems dating to the Iron Age.

Peyton Manning's Ancestry NOTE: My apologies to newsletter readers outside the United States. This article probably won't much to you but please humor us Americans, OK? Greg Boyd of Arphax Publishing Co. wrote an article for the HistoryGeo Blog to give genealogists something to talk about when football takes center-stage in lots of office-talk through the rest of this week. Greg tracked the given-name-origins (and place-origins) of the Manning family (Peyton being the Denver Bronco's quarterback). Elisha Archibald Manning III was the quarterback for the New Orleans Saints---he went by the name of Archie. Archie Manning is included in any discussion of "the best player ever on one of the worst teams ever." Archie's career, amazing as it was, has been eclipsed by his two Super Bowl-winning sons, Peyton Manning and Eli Manning, who currently play for the Denver Broncos and New York Giants, respectively. Peyton is preparing to lead his Broncos into his third Super Bowl appearance, coming up on February 2, 2014. Greg Boyd examined several web sites to find a rich history for the Mannings in Copiah County, Mississippi. The given-name origins were not hard to spot. Both the names Archie (Archibald) and Eli (Elisha) stem from late-18th-century ancestors that came to Copiah County (their origins are probably even earlier than that). You might take a look at the blog entry on the Manning family for some timely Super Bowl week content at.... http://blog.historygeo.com/2014/01/25/the-copiah-county-mississippi-roots-of-the-manning-football-dynasty/.

MyHeritage Adds Another 160 million New US and UK Historical Records to SuperSearch MyHeritage has announced a major new addition: more than 160 million new US and UK historical records to SuperSearch, MyHeritage's powerful search engine for historical records. The records come from hundreds of collections, including such vital records as births, baptisms, marriages and deaths, military records, censuses and many more. NOTE: MyHeritage is the exclusive sponsor of this newsletter. Quoting from the MyHeritage Blog: For the UK, we've added more than 118 million new records. The largest UK collection - "England Births and Christenings" - dates back to 1538 and contains over 192 million names, including births and christenings from various localities. In this collection, we were able to locate William Shakespeare's christening record in Stratford-On-Avon, Warwick, England -- as well as christening records for his three children; Susanna, and twins Hamnet and Judith. We've added more than 42 million US records, including, death, burial, marriage, military, and many other types. Here's an example of a 1920 US marriage record from our Washington, County Marriages collection, which dates back to 1855.

New Feature on MyHeritage: Add Family Tree Profiles from Historical Records MyHeritage, the sponsor of this newsletter, has added a new feature that improves the method of seamlessly integrating family trees and historical records. Quoting from the MyHeritage Blog: Today, we launched an exciting new feature that allows you to add new profiles to your family tree directly from a historical record. Previously, you could view a historical record and extract information from that record into multiple profiles in your family tree. Now you can go one step further, and add new profiles to your family tree from that very record! For example, if you find a census record for your great-grandmother and you discover she had a sister previously unknown to you, you can now add the sister to your tree directly from the record, and extract the information about her from the record at the same time.

National Archives (of Great Britain) Reveals Conscription Appeals of World War I Middlesex Men Only a small number of the tribunal papers contesting World War I conscription survive. An intriguing new archive tells some of the stories involved. The new archive contains up to 11,000 case papers from the Middlesex Appeal Tribunal which, between 1916 and 1918, heard appeals from men who had previously applied to a local tribunal for exemption from compulsory military service. The reasons provided by applicants are varied, with applications made on moral grounds (conscientious objectors), on medical grounds (disability), on family grounds (looking after dependents) and on economic grounds (preserving a business). The vast majority of cases relate to the impact of war on a man's family or their business interests, and the papers reveal some fascinating and tragic stories. The series is now fully searchable and available online, following the completion of a digitisation project jointly funded by the Friends of The National Archives and Federation of Family History Societies (FFHS). You can read more about this new offering in the National Archives Blog at http://blog.nationalarchives.gov.uk/blog/commemorating-conscription/ and in an article in the Culture24 web site at http://goo.gl/RJW7Th. The records are available at http://www.nationalarchives.gov.uk/conscription-appeals.

A new web site, called the Lives of the First World War, was launched to the public this morning at https://livesofthefirstworldwar.org. It is the result of a partnership between DC Thomson Family History and Imperial War Museums (IWM). It is a permanent digital memorial to the 8 million men and women from across Britain and the Commonwealth who made a contribution during the First World War. Each person will have their own Life Story page. The aim of the project is to produce a Life Story page for each person. Members of the public can add information and historical evidence to Life Story pages, including digital images and family stories. All the Life Story pages were created by IWM, using information from official records. Initially, each page will contain only basic information: a name and a few key facts from that record. You can add more information to show your interest in a person by Remembering them. Everyone can look at the evidence for themselves. We can all help correct mistakes and make improvements. DC Thomson Family History and Imperial War Museums are asking for your help to piece together the rest of each Life Story. There are two stages to doing this: First you need to find evidence about the person and connect it to their Life Story. Next, you use that evidence to add specific facts about the person's life and wartime experiences. For example: After searching for someone and adding them to your list of Remembered Life Stories, you can then search for them in the records available on Lives of the First World War. You can also post links to records and sources of evidence from elsewhere, and you can add images and other media you may have. Finally, you will be asked what these records tell us. If you have looked someone up in the 1911 census, for example, you can connect this record to their Life Story, then add details from the census to the entry fields on their Life Story. By working in this way we can make sure that each Life Story is as accurate as possible. You can use Lives of the First World War as a Visitor, a Member, or a Friend: As a Visitor you can search for Life Stories, view all the facts people have added to Life Stories, and explore the History section. As a Member you can add to a Life Story and Remember an individual. To do this, you need to create an account and log in so we can show who has added each piece of information. Becoming a member is free. As a Friend of Lives of the First World War you can view premium content and access special features by paying a subscription. You can show your commitment to remembering an individual by clicking the Remember button on their Life Story page. Clicking the Remember button adds their Life Story to a list on your dashboard. This means you can easily find the people you are Remembering the next time you log in. You can piece together information about an individual's experiences by adding evidence to their Life Story page and listing key facts. To see who is included in Lives of the First World War, how they are identified and how to search for them, read the guide to Finding a Named Individual. To see more on how to join evidence and add facts, read the guide to Adding to a Life Story. Further FAQs, practical information about your account, how to search the records and how to use features can be found in the site's Knowledge Base at http://support.livesofthefirstworldwar.org/.
