Ane- Do you have a sense of where these Wallers & LeCates lived? Both families, Wallers in particular, were involved with the Ellis family west of Delmar in Little Creek Hundred, as well as a little south towards Salisbury. I also am interested in anythng you know about Mary Nichols. My gr gr grandmother was a Theresa (Trecia?) Nichols, but I know nothing more and there are not a lot of the Nichols family around the area.

The genealogist who did some Waller research for us in the early 1990's had totally misspelled the LeCates name, and as I researched it years later, I figured the name was LeCates. The way I piece it together is that Rosa's mother was Mary A. Nichols m. Minos Gordy, had Rosa b. 11/12/1869 & a younger sister. Minos passed, Mary remarried to John W. Lecates and they had a son, then Mary died. The story handed down in our family was that Rosa was an orphan; I wonder whether she stayed with the LeCates family til her marriage to George Alfred Waller? Should I look for any Orphan's Court records? I thought Mary was buried in the Nichols cemetary as were Rosa and the first 2 children of George Alfred Waller & Rosa E., but the Mary A.E. Nichols on the cemetary list done by by Mike Hitch does not match her dates. I think I can find the Census records, but if you have that or other records documenting this situation, I would love to have a copy (eg. Mary m. John Lecates).

Anne, I have information on the LeCates family. She was living with John W Lecates in 1880 as a step daughter. It appears that Rosa's mother is Mary A. who was married to Minos Gordy per the 1870 Census. Minos must have died and she married John W Lecates on 2/5/1875. Before the 1880 Census she is either dead or gone.

There's a Nehemiah Davis who died testate in Worcester County in 1797 who had daughters Ann and Rhoda Davis, among several children.  The reference is Worcester Wills JW18:292.  My Levin Miller was a witness to the will.  You should be able to get a copy of the will from familysearch.org rather than driving to Annapolis.  Worcester County Courthouse will not have the wills--quite some years ago they shipped mostly everything they had (except deeds) to Annapolis. ________________________________ From: "tarantulac@aol.com" <tarantulac@aol.com> To: lower-delmarva-roots@rootsweb.com Sent: Friday, November 30, 2012 8:53 PM Subject: Re: [LDR] Those elusive Chandlers Ok Listers, I've got a huge question to ask: Does anyone have a Nehemiah Davis from Worcester County, MD who would have had two daughters that were his heirs in their lineage?  The daughters were Roddy (Rhoada?) and Nancy.  He would have died sometime between 1793 and 1800.

*Mike and Barbara, I have seen the STREET cemetery listing and "suspected" that that may have been what I saw. But since the year I saw it was 1983 I have a foggy memory of it and, frankly, I only remember the two tombstones in the immediate front yard and not a bigger cemetery. I wish that I could get up there ... I would love to see that plot again ! Thanks to Mike and Barbara for your help. Roy C Pollitt *

Roy, There is a "Street" family plot in Mt. Vernon, Somerset County, MD. According to Handley's Eastern Shore MD Genealogy website, there are 11 "Street" family members and two "Websters" in the plot. It's located in someone's front yard, very close to Mt. Vernon Road, across from Steamboat Wharf Rd. It's listed as "Mt. Vernon Cemetery"/ Mt. Vernon, Hungary Neck District #5. I have seen it and it's well taken care of. My husband's ancestors were from the Mt. Vernon area.

Anne, you mentioned Waller. Are you only researching Waller in the delmarva area? Is there a family message board or family site for Waller? I have a Benjamin Waller who married Stacey Fletcher, 6 Nov 1831, Copiah county MS. Stacey was probably a sister of my Sarah Fletcher who married Wm R. Gresham, 1824, Copiah co MS, their dau was Martha Gresham b 1825 who was the second wife of David Malone, in 1841, Copiah co MS. David and Martha are my gr gr grandparents. Am anxious to learn about the Fletchers, maybe someone in the Waller line knows something.

Teresa, As you have been working on our Waller line, did you realize that George Alfred Waller and Rosa E. Gordy - m. 12/11/1889 was a link we also had been documenting, trying to find more out about Rosa--all my father had ever known of his Gmother was that she was an 'orphan' at one time. We found that her father died, mother remarried a LeCates?, possibly had another son, then Mary, Rosa's mother died. We think Rosa, her sister and stepbrother, might have ended up living with either Mary's sister, or a LeCates relative? Amazing that we found Rosa's grave back in the 1990's--apparently near where you live(d) or on the same farm? And that there are Gordy sisters in the Oklahoma area who have put together an entire Gordy lineage book (ironically they lived about 30 minutes north of where my sisters & I grew up in the 1960's in OK)?
