Mornin' Cuzzies, Well, you Little League fans.....do yourself a favor and watch Pearland, called the Texans, when they next come up to play on CNN. They are a beautiful, fiesty club that just roared thru a little team last night to win their second game. The fans and parents following them have really put on the dawg and are Texan-ed max in the grandstands.....read the story in the HoustonChronicle.com this morning. Da Kid and his area struggle every year to be "the" team outta Houston to go.....which is almost more competitive than the World Series is. Pearland is a suburb of Houston. Off to do many thingees.....Monday you know. Y'all have a good one! ( : Buckette

Greg, Thank you! I knew someone on here would be able to help me.  The worst part about this is that the family that is posting only live a few miles from me!!

Unfortunately, this is the way things are in these days of internet genealogy.  What you need to do is make sure of your own data and sources, and make sure that anything you post is properly sourced.  This way you can cover *your* butt if someone comes after you  :-) Now, as to what to do with this misinformation on Ancestry... When you go to an individual in one of the public family trees on their site, there are the following tabs: Overview, Facts and Sources, Media Gallery, Comments, and Member Connect You can click on the "Comments" tab and post a comment for others to look at.  You might say that you believe this information to be in error, and leave your email address (or your Ancerstry login name) as a contact.  It probably defaults to the latter anyway.  If you do this enough, then maybe some of those posting the wrong information might finally get mad enough to contact you and start a dialog.  I have done something similar on some of the Rootsweb WorldConnect trees, and have never gotten in trouble with anyone over it.

I am currently working on my Mothers family tree (Goodrich & Fleckenstein) and I was just in Ancestry.com. There are 3 people who are posting incorrect information on several of them!  I have written them numerous emails asking to compare notes and figure out what is the correct information but have received no replies. They just keep posting the wrong stuff! They are misspelling names, posting incorrect dates and children attached to the wrong parents.  Anyone have a suggestion of what to do?????

Mornin' Cuzzies, It's a definite "careful what you wish for" time. When Dallas is due to be 105 and Houston is due to be 101, and this is for today and the whole week ahead, we are talking *hot* in the state of Texas, a place where the residents normally expect some pretty good heat. People are looking longingly at the tropical depression far out there, hoping for not a direct hit certainly, but a little relief. Ah'll say! People in town very excited abt. our little league team winning their first game in Williamsport. Nothing like a little kids' baseball team to stir things up. Cute stories abt. what's going on drifting back into the Houston papers, radio, etc. In the meantime the Super Bowl champions, New Orleans, ran over the top of our Texans team last night......who's surprised?! I'll tell you who is not one bit concerned w/ the heat.....the cat crew! They just get out and stretch l-o-n-g out on the deck and snooze all afternoon as if they had good sense. Y'all have a good one! ( : Buckette

My daughter is an RN working for CPS. I mentioned the case (da kid's) to her today. She said she wouldn't be surprised at anything anymore. We have a childhood diabetic in our family. Families do get "immunized" when the kid knows they shouldn't eat something or SHOULD eat something. That is certainly no excuse for the parent's behavior though. Jane

The worst incident that I ever encountered was the college professors who had been invited to a big wig cocktail party. Unfortunately, their eight year old son broke his leg earlier in the afternoon. They went to the hospital to get him and brought him home. He was sleepy from the ordeal, so they put him to bed. AND THEN WENT OUT TO THE COCKTAIL PARTY!! Incredible. When asked why they went out and left him there, they assumed he'd sleep for a few hours. Did they not think about him waking up or what would happen if there was a fire or other emergency. Some people just don't have a clue. Phyllis of the northern mountains

Mornin' Cuzzies, Gotta tell you of a really scary situation that happened to Da Kid and his squeeze. They rented a place over in Central Texas on Lake Travis for her children, friends for the last hoorah before school starts on Monday. Children took friends, cuzzie came, brought a friend. One of the friends was a diabetic.....I don't know whether that was known actually or not, but the child had really serious probs and had to be taken to the hospital..... where she stayed for 3 days that I know of.....but, the really awful thing was that her parents didn't rush over from Houston like normal folks, thus leaving the brunt of the responsibility on Da Kid and Squeeze. Somehow the hospital interceded and called in Child Protective Services, and Da Kid packed his brood up and drove them home yesterday where they could calm down and get some rest before school starts day after tomorrow. Now is that scary or what! Da Kid did the right thing because Squeeze and dau. spent the night at the hospital w/ the sick chile and were completely wiped out. But, can you imagine being in a situation like that!!.... o : Also, I don't think anyone ever taught Squeeze that she has to be more careful than most because she is an oilanaire heiress and can be sued for ever more by people who don't bother to rescue a sick chile. Anyhoo, very scary.....and disheartening. Y'all have a good one! ( : Buckette

Buckette, You are sooooo right about the whole situation. I had a similar thing happened to me when my son was a teenager. He took a friend of his with him to karate class one evening (was not given permission to do this) and as luck would have it he wrecked my car on the way home. Police called us to come get him. Wreck was determined to have been caused by road conditions not his driving...whew!!. Both boys were walking around when we got there. My car was upside down in a ditch. I offered to take the other boy to the hospital..just to be sure he was okay..he refused to go. So I called his mom and dad who told me to "let him hitch-hike home". They refused to come and get him. We took him home. Sure enough about a month later my insurance company notified me that they had filed claim for injuries. He was claiming a severe back injury among other things, AND, my insurance company was just going to pay it. I told them they better not as that boy had quit school and was living in Georgia with a sister and working in a gravel yard. He had called my son a couple of times. So, I had my son call him and get the name of his employer, the address of his sister, etc. I turned it over to my insurance company who then investigated and found out the kid had gone right from here to GA. and to work. No gap of time for recouperating from any injuries. That wasn't the end. The father went to just about every attorney in town trying to find one who would sue me for injuries. Of course when they investigated they didn't take the case. People are evil and that makes it hard on people with legitimate claims. And by the way the father was later convicted of incest and sent to prison for several years. cuzzin' Mary in WV ----- Original Message ----- From: <spice3@juno.com> To: <lovelace@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, August 21, 2010 9:50 AM Subject: Re: [LL] Sat Aug. 21, 2010 > Mornin' Cuzzies, > > Gotta tell you of a really scary situation that happened to Da Kid and his > squeeze.

Thanks Jack, Now I can compare your Hills to the ones I found. Lou Ann

Lou Ann, My grandfather, Samuel Linzy Lovelace, married Dovie Mae Hill, daughter of William Walter Hill and Mary Josephine Avants. William Walter and Mary Josephine lived across the road from George Talbert and Julia Frances. In 1900, William Walter Hill also lived in Canadian Township. In 1910, he was in Canadian Township No. 07 North, Range No.01 East. In 1920 and 1930, he was reported to be in Canadian Township. Once he settled on the place, he never moved. I suspect that William Walter and Mary Josephine also participated in the 1891 run, as they had a daughter born in 1889 in Texas and Dovie was born in 1891 in Needmore. Julia Frances Hartless married George Talbert Lovelace on 22 Jan 1880 in Cooke County, Texas. This was her second marriage. She was married previously to John T. Billingsley on 11 Feb 1876 in Cooke County, Texas. Julia was born in Greene County, Illinois on 26 Nov 1856. I suspect that Julia's family moved to Montague County, Texas, between 1861 and 1866. William Walter Hill and Mary Josephine Avants had fourteen children. They were: 01) John Edward Hill b: 21 Jul 1887, Texas. 02) Nora Eva Hill b: 28 Feb 1889, Texas. 03) Dovie Mae Hill b: 15 Feb 1891, Needmore. 04) Dora Ella Hill b: 17 Jul 1893, Needmore. 05) Gracie Ellen Hill b: 01 Oct 1895, Needmore. 06) James Roy Hill b: 29 Dec 1897, Needmore. 07) Rommie Alford Hill b: 15 Jan 1900, Needmore. 08) Joseph Henry Hill b: 10 Nov 1902, Needmore. 09) Frank Lenard Hill b: 06 Aug 1904, Needmore. 10) Tennie Lola Hill b: 08 Aug 1906, Needmore. 11) Ora Elizabeth Hill b: cApr 1909, Needmore. 12) Emmitt Luther Hill b: 03 Oct 1910, Needmore. 13) Everett Elmer Hill b: 17 Feb 1904, Needmore. 14) Vonille Hill b: 24 Dec 1920, Needmore, d: 24 Dec 1920, Needmore. -- Jack D.

Canadian Township is about 11 miles south of where they homesteaded. There were four or five Hill families living down in that area - possibly your grandmother's relatives. I have her father's name and didn't find him among those Hills, but I don't have any of her siblings or other relatives. If you know anything about the Hills and can send me that, I'll check those families and see if they relate. 1910 is the only census list I have for Canadian Township, so I can't check 1900. I didn't find any Hartlesses though or Leaches mentioned in that community at all, so I wonder why Julia would have gone there, unless maybe there was work opportunity. That area was thriving at that time - from about 1893 until through the 1920's it was quite a community. But then I show your grandpa Samuel marrying back up in Needmore in 1908 and that's where the homestead was, so maybe they still had it then. Wow! They did do some moving around, didn't they? It absolutely amazes me how people did that back when travel would not have exactly been easy. And it amazes me that they continued to come back to Oklahoma, especially that 1922 trip. I don't guess you know why they did that? Do you have any educated guesses about it? That was the time period when people started leaving here. I guess it was actually before the dust bowl and before the great depression, but WWI had happened and people were finding jobs elsewhere. I need to go check my notes, but I think that was also when drought was starting here. Down in Canadian Township they had had some thriving orchards and thriving lots of stuff, but drought killed most of it in the 1920's and by 1930 it had pretty much died as a thriving place. My grandpa Loveless's brother moved to CA around that same time period also. I've got to find some specific dates for that and I think I have them from one of his granddaughters. Lou Ann

I'm involved in writing a book for the historical society here and we're doing a section on the early families, ie the ones who came for one of the land runs or shortly thereafter. Jack's family got their land in a run and Jesse Barton came about five years after that. They lived only about four miles apart and apparently never knew one another. However, I was talking to another cousin today. His grandmother was one of the children of Jesse Barton as was my grandfather. His grandmother married a guy whose family was also in the area where Jack's Lovelaces had their land and he remembered hearing them talk about the Lovelaces there getting their land in the run. He didn't realize until today when I told him, that they didn't mean our family. His grandfather's side of the family knew Jack's family before he married into our family. Lou Ann

Many thanks Jack, This really helps piece together the time lines. Lou Ann
