Does anyone know who James Siler, (born 1862 in Whitley County, s/o William A. & Nancy (Lawson) Siler) maried? All we have is that her name was Allie. James died at age 21 with no children that we know of. We don't know where he was buried either. Mary S.

I am looking for male Walker surnamed descendants of Renelder Walker and Mary Wilcoxon of Wilkes and Burke Co., NC; Claiborne Co., TN; Knox and Whitley Co., KY.

The old ancestor was really Nathan Benjamin Phillips, but find he went by the name of Ben.....was b. 18 feb 1836 Athens Ohio, married Sarah Eliz.Henderson in Wartburg,Morgan,TN 02-Jul-1882...resided in Williamsburg,Whitley,KY.... Ben died 05 Sep 1905 in Williamsburg. Can anyone find me an obiturary or death certificate of this old gent ? Grove Schoolcraft groves@coldreams.com

FYI..... The FHL library has a film 0009678 of a newspaper microfilm WILLIAMSBURG KY TIMES.. (can't remember but think its 1891 to 1903) lots of issues missing, but I got 12 pages with an ancestor mentioned..... The editor mentioned in one of the issues there was 5 publications in circulation at the time....He never named them, but might be interesting if someone could come up with the other 4 that was in print at the time. "HEW TO THE LINE--LET THE CHIPS FALL WHERE THEY MAY" "WILLIAMSBURGH TIMES, KY"

Carol I have no other information on Elizabeth S. Wilson Holt Taylor. Wish I did! What do you have on Stephens/Lovit line in Whitley & McCreary counties. Joyce Holt Taylor

Lois, Thanks for trying. Julie Researching: Canada, Rose, Ridener, Fore

Julie Sorry to say I didn't find your Nancy Rose, nor her parents. I have some John Rose with no family listed. I do have some more to enter in the data base. When I get more posted I'll write the list and you can remind me at that time to search again. Right now that's the best I can do....Lois > Lois, > I'm try to find some info on Nancy Rose her parents were John &Abigail Rose > > she was born in 1834.

Does anyone have parents and siblings of Elige, Elijah ,E.lige Morgan in the 1900's married to Sarah Abbott . D.Perry

Hi Joyce, Do you know who the parents and siblings of this Elizabeth S. Wilson were? The reason I am asking is because we have Wilson connected to our Stephens/ Lovitt line in Whitley and McCreary counties.
