In my request yesterday for information I neglected to say that Evan Camp and Haly Huff were married by William Summers. I do not know if he is a minister or not. Their surety was posted by George Raw. Again thanks so much. Glynice

I am searching for a birth record of some kind for Nancy Kemp born 12 July 1828 in Wayne County. She was the daughter of Evan Kemp/Camp and Mahala/Haly Huff/Hupp. Evan and Mahala were married in Wayne County 19 Aug 1824. They moved to Indiana before 1830. They had three daughters born in KY.

Blacks, Mulattos, Indians, Melungeons. Of interest in the following material is mention of families from the 1782-85 Pittsylvania and Patrick County, VA tax lists which indicates some of the inhabitants were Occaneechi-Saponi. It could just be that some had mothers or wives that were part or full blooded Indians. The book does not say that all branches with the names mentioned were Black or Indian. June Bork of Apple Valley, CA ---------------- TITLE: Occaneechi Saponi and Tutelo of the Saponi Nation: aka Monacan and Piedmont Catawba; Includes The Eastern Band of the Cherokee and Lumbee Nation and Southeastern Indian Nations, etc. Written and compiled by Richard L. Haithcock, Vicki L. Haithcock [Excerpts from] VOLUME ONE, TWO, THREE Greetings Relatives, Friends and Librarians : Allow me to introduce my wife and co-author Vicki L. Haithock and I am Richard L. Haithcock. We are Occaneechi Saponi Indians. We have compiled the most complete Cultural, Genealogical and Chronological histories of the Occaneechi, Saponi and Tuteo of the Occaneechi, Saponi and Tutelo of the Saponi Nation aka Monacan and Piedmont Catawba and Southeastern Indians in the Virginias and Carolinas. The Saponi Indians were an extension or the Greater Catawba Nation/Southeastern Siouan Confederacy; also included with this three volume set are tribal histories and biographies of various southeastern Nations; biographies and photos of the contemporary chiefs of today, and Indian Censuses. The Piedmont Catawba occupied and controlled the Virginia and Carolina Piedmont, due to disease, warfare and white encroachment, they re-occupied land in the Ohio River Valley, and ranged into Indiana and Michigan. Some families removed from Virginia into Pennsylvania and New York. This book resolves around Southeastern Indian Tribes in the area of Occupance of the Saponi Nation and the censuses of Indian people recorded nearby. It includes mergers with the Cherokee, Creeks, Delawares, Choctaw, Utes, Mowa, Haliwa and Cayuga's of the Six Nation Confederacy, including migrations into Ohio, Indiana, Michigan, Pennsylvania, New York and Ontario, Canada. The new additions to this Three Volume set includes the photos and a contemporary roll call of Southeastern Chiefs/Principle peoples: photos of Southeastern Indians from VA, the Carolinas, Alabama and Blackforks, Ohio Siouan Community. This book answers questions like why was I told, I was Blackfoot/Cherokee, Shashoni and who is Indian? OCCANEECHI, SAPONI, AND TUTELO of the SAPONI NATION: THE PIEDMONT CATAWBA Written and Complied by Richard Haithcock and Vicky Haithcock 1 Identifying todays Occaneechi, Saponi and Tutelo of the Saponi Nation and Piedmont-Catawba Core family names: example, Haithcock may have evolved in 1673 from Indian John Hasecoll / Hasecott to Hayscock / Hesscott in 1728 to Haithcock, Hethcock to Haith, Hathcock arid Heathcock to present. THE Saponi Nation consist primarily of the Saponi arid the Piedmont-Catawba, Tutelo and the surviving Occaneechi from Bacon's Rebellion, Fort Christianna arid Junntapurse. Their ancestoral names are Jeffries Stewart Scott Chavis Buck Teteli Hays Corn Guy Watkins Day Branham Jones Haith Haithcock Burnett Griffen Oakey Goings Collins Gibson Bunch Poythress Whitmore Mayo Bullen Harris Coker Parker Pettiford Liggins. They can be found in Greensville, Brunswick, Halifax and Mecklenburg Counties, Virginia; Caswell, Orange, Alamance, Cabarrus, Stanly, Person, Granville, Halifax, Randolph and Northampton Counties, North Carolina and in Ross, Lawrence, Gallia, Highland, Jackson, Fayette, Greene and Pike Counties, Ohio and Hamilton, Vigo, Randolph Co.'s, Indiana and in Cass Co., Michigan. Eno-Occaneechi Indians are part of the Sapooi flation. They are the descendents of the Occaneechi who survived Bacons rebellion of 1676, and those who settled in Fort Christianna in Virginia along with the Tutelo and Saponi Indians forming the Saponi Nation in 1713. The core family names are Jefferies Haith Goings Collins Bunch Gibson Haithcock Liggons Stewart Harris Jones Guy Corn Whitmore Watkins Hays Pettiford Scott Burnett Parker Chavis Tribal Chief of the Occaneechi Indian Tribe is Chief Joel Bass/Chief Early Eagle, they have family in Virginia, North Carolina, Ohio, Indiana and Michigan. 2 Indians with Saponi origins have the surnames Chavis Braveboy Ransome Burnett Gibson Austin Hammons Mayo Coins Collins Revells Scott Guy Sweat Taborn Payne Green Bullen Brewer Simmons. They shared Occaneechi-Saponi origins, before amalgamating with other tribes forming the Lumbee Nation. See Material on Saponi-Powhatans/aka Meulungines. Collins Gibson Coings Coins Coens Bunch. The Moncans also known historically as the Saponi, Tutelo, Occaneechi and Monacan by Capt. John Smith at Jamestown, Virginia. The Monacans shared the same ancestoral past as the Saponi. Monacan Core family names are: Hicks Redcross Johns Beverly Branham. 61 1705 - Virginia Explicit legal (statutory) definitions of the term "Mulatto" are surprisingly few in the colonial period. General usage will be examined below, but first it is necessary to review those explicit references which do exist. We shall begin with Virginia, because that colony is thought to have exercised considerable influence on other areas. In 1705 Virginia prohibited any "negro, mulatto, or Indian" from holding any public office. The act further stated: and for clearing all manner of doubts which hereafter may happen to arise upon the construction of this act, or any other act, who shall be accounted a mulatto: be it (etc.), that the child of an Indian, and the child, grandchild, or great grandchild or a negro shall be deemed, accounted, held, and taken to be a mulatto. In other words, an American-European mixed-blood was defined as a mulatto, along with all part-Africans to the one-eighth degree. This statute apparently remained unmodified until 1785 when it was enacted that all persons with "one-fourth or more Negro blood shall...be deemed a mulatto". This remained the legal definition until 1866 when it was modified: "Every person having one-fourth or more Negro blood shall be deemed a colored person, and every person not a colored person having one-fourth or more Indian blood shall be deemed an Indian." This use of "colored person" must be considered in relation to an 1860 statute using "mulatto" for persons of one-fourth African descent and making "negro" and "mulatto" equivalent in all statutes. It would appear, then, that from 1705 until 1866 the only legal definition applying to mixed native Americans (excepting those having one-fourth or more African ancestry) was that of 1705. Thus we might at first glance construe that a mixed American-European was legally a mulatto if of one-half or more American blood until that statute of 1866 making such persons "Indians". All American-African mixed bloods remained mulattoes throughout the period, unless having less than one-eighth African ancestry (1705-85) or less than one-quarter African ancestry (1785-1910). After 1910 Virginia reclassified large numbers of persons by extending the "colored" category to include people with minute amounts of African ancestry. 93 1753 -Various tax list for Orange Co., N.C. include several families - surnames of mulattoes such as: Bunch Gibson Collins Goings approximately 30 Saponi lived in Granville Co., N.C. in 1755. I Refer to the surname list of Grainger and Hawkins Co's., Tennessee. 113 OCCANEECHI-SAPONI and others recorded on the Pittsyvania Co,VA. Tax List of 1782-1785; many of these moved into the Carolinas, Tennessee, Kentucky, Indiana, Illinois, Ohio, Missouri Territory, etc. David Harris Henry Mitchell Joseph Harris John Bird Charles Oakes Thomas Payne Isaiah Watkins William Payne William Oakes James George James Oakes John George Ellinor Norton Thos.

(The "B" should be placed in context, since early Virginia tax-rolls (such as those of the 1780s) divided all tithable persons between "white souls" and "black souls". The term "black" or "B" is, therefore, open to various interpretations.) In the same year there is testimony from the Robeson County attorney before a Congressional committee in which he says that "the Mulattoes" of Robeson, as he termed the Lumbees, "were a mixture of Cherokee and Portuguese" The situation historically in North Carolina tax records and other document is summarized by Robert K. Thomas as follows (for the Lumbee people): Most individuals are listed most commonly as Mulattoes. In that time in North Carolina the legal category Mulatto meant having one white parent and one non-white parent. The non-white parents could be either Indian or Negro. Some individuals in these families are listed as white, a few are listed as black, and occasionally an individual is listed as an Indian.... this meant full-blood Indian... .by definition, a mixed-blood Indian would be a Mulatto. 1830 - Tennessee A similar situation existed in Tennessee where the so-called Melungeon people (probably Saponi-Powhatan) of Hawkins, Grainger and nearby counties were often classed as 'free colored" and mulatto, but occasionally also as white. 124 Saponi, Tutelo, Catawba and others in Montgomery County, New York, 1790 Jno Sweet Ezekel Scott James Hadlock Win.

These are the "mestizos," "racial isolates," or "little races" that occur in part of the Southeast. Because these people are said to be racially mixed, Southern whites have traditionally refused to accept them as white and the people themselves have refused to be categorized as black. Often the whites gave them pejorative names, such as Brass Ankles, Red Bones, Dominickers, and so on. Some of these people, such as the Haliwas of eastern North Carolina, are in the process of establishing for themselves an Indian identity. For various social and economic reasons some of these racial isolates are now beginning to lose their distinctive identity altogether. After the Southeast was invaded by whites from Europe who also brought in blacks from Africa, genetic admixture with Indians began, and it continues today. According to one study, present-day Cherokees show a substantial genetic mixture with whites; and present-day Catawbas show about 50 percent white admixture. In contrast, the Seminoles of Florida are predominantly Indian, with some individuals having small amounts of white and black admixture. Indian genes also show up in many of the unusual "racial isolates" or "little races" of the Southeast; groups like the Brass Ankles, the Haliwas, and the Melungeons. _________________________________________________________________ STOP MORE SPAM with the new MSN 8 and get 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail

If, you have not already heard the news, the Kentucky Historical Society is again looking for a new director. As a member of the historical society, and a patron who spends several hours at the facility each week, I'm concerned with the direction the society seems to be taking. A couple of years ago the historical society moved into a new facility which ranks at the top or very near the top of the finest research facilities in the country. Unfortunately, since the move to the new building it appears as though our membership has dropped! In the time that I have been using the library, never once have I seen any mention of the Kentucky Historical Society, its library, or the many services that are provided in ANY of the genealogical magazines that I have and do continue to subscribe too. I have attended conferences, and seminars outside the state in which we should at the very least be represented by a speaker! It seems for whatever reason we are a very well kept secret! Interest in our society needs to be revived! It seems as though the time has come for a director who wants the society to grow and expand. I for one would like to see not only the first floor of the library stack area filled with books, but also the addition of a second floor! The last director was brought in from out of state, which to me doesn't make a lot of sense. It is time that the director of the historical society is a Kentuckian, with knowledge of the history of the state, a vast knowledge of the genealogical holdings within the state, the ability to understand the needs of genealogical, and historical researchers, and the ability to work with our state legislature for the benefit of the society. I wish to nominate Mr. Ron D. Bryant as the new director of the Kentucky Historical Society. Ron D. Bryant not only has seventeen years of experience with the library, is a ninth generation Kentuckian, but is also extremely knowledgeable of the history and genealogical holdings in Kentucky. He is a noted librarian and lecturer on Kentucky, having written over eighty articles, and is the author of Kentucky History - An Annotated Bibliography published in 2000. If Ron D. Bryant becomes director of the historical society, he has stated that he will continue to help patrons with their research in the library. He believes that the director needs to be aware of the patrons needs, and that we must increase our membership. As I mentioned above, I wish to nominate Ron D. Bryant for this position, but I can't do so with your help. If, you agree with me, please send letters to the following gentlemen advising them to name Ron D. Bryant Director of the Kentucky Historical Society: Selection Committee c/o Mr. Walter Baker 917 S. Green Street Glasgow, KY 42141-2086 Selection Committee c/o Mr. Richard L. Taylor 335 Holt Lane Frankfort, KY 40601 Selection Committee c/o Mr. Thomas D. Clark 175 Kentucky Ave. Lexington, KY 40502 Many thanks for your help. Shelby A. Williams

Hello, Could some do a look up in Wayne County Cemetery Book for General Sexton.? And could you also tell me if the book is still available to buy? Thanks Patti

Hello List -- Would anyone happen to have access to death or cemetery records in Wayne County for about 1862? Would someone help me out with a look up on Mary Thomas, wife of Shelby Thomas? That is the year their fist child was born and believe she died then or shortly there after. Believe they were married in 1860 if anyone has a marriage record. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

For those of you who may not have discovered the 1880 census on the FamilySearch website, here is one way to get to it and use it: Go to www.familysearch.org Look at the menu under "Information" at the lefthand side of the the Welcome page. Look for the 2nd item: <US 1880, British and Canadian 1881 Censuses are now available online> and click on that link. Next to the "Census" block, select "1880 United States Census" When that loads, choose your Census State at the bottom--For example, "Kentucky." When that loads, you can then choose a county. I chose "Wayne." My family is mainly in the Mullentown or Slick Ford area, so I narrowed it down to "Mullentown." (You can be as specific or general as you want to be. It is not necessary to choose a county and/or town if you don't know where in Kentucky your family should be. You don't even have to enter a name if, for example, you want to bring up everyone living in Monticello.) In my case, for example, I chose to enter the surname "Clark." The database then brings up everyone with the surname "Clark" living in Mullentown, Wayne Co, KY. I recognized the very first person listed, Jesse Clark, as one of my family members and clicked on his name. What comes up will be his Individual Record, but I also want to see everyone living in his household, so I click on <Household> in the upper righthand side of the web page. That will then bring up the Household record, which I can either copy and paste to my word processor or download as a gedcom file to merge into my database. If you will notice, you can also click on <Previous Household> or <Next Household>, and in that way see who the neighbors are. In the case of my Thomas A. Clark b. 1832, I entered his name as Head of Household, specified 1832 as his year of birth, United States as his country of birth and began looking in Kentucky, then got lucky when I looked at Tennessee. Individual Records can also be downloaded in a gedcom file--50 individuals at a time, max.
