Terry .... Please excuse my posting here...... I wouldn't want to detract from any effort on Elizabeths' long standing brick wall. When, & if your time permits I am looking (but have never found) the parents of Lydia Goslee, my maternal GG Grandmother. She was b. c1781-2 somewhere in Delmarva, possibly Ssx, DE; she married James Hopkins (who was b. c. 1782 in Ssx, DE) & c1800-1805 and they soon moved to Ohio. About 10 years later they moved to Vermillion Co. IN, where she d. c1846 leaving a large family. I've checked the Goslee's which I could find, mostly in Ssx, DE, and found no clues re her parents. If you should have anything her Goslees I'd be interested in enough info so that I could find them. Thank you. Joseph Lake Elizabeth- Tell me what you know about your relatives in the area. I am no expert, but I have intensively looked at the families I named in that area and, of course, I would be happy to share anything I know/have. In addition, I know others still living in the area who share an interest in family history and whose families extend beyond my sphere of knowledge. Other families in the "triangle" that are tangential to those I claim are Owens, Lowe, Kinney, Kinniken, Bradley, Wright, Twilley, Rider, Ralph, Freeny, Truitt, Wheatley, Goslee, Bounds, Culver, Hastings, Walker, Beach, Messick, Jones, Mills, Robinson and Calloway. Needless to say, there are quite a few others, including folks who I know and, hopefully, can speak with, but most in this have some relevance to my own family history. Curiously, in Sharptown (pop. 600 - 700) there are two groups of Bennetts, who share no apparent link. At least other, more experienced researchers haven't found one so far. Terry
Joseph- Sure, I'd be glad to. I personally have only a little info on Goslees. They simply haven't come up in my family. However, there certainly are Goslees in Sharptown. Two good friends who are Goslees aren't particularly interested in genealogy, but another, whose mother was a Goslee, is very active. I'll check with her when I get back (after the 6th). My email address is tbphillips@verizon.net, so if you haven't heard from me by the 10th, or so, just drop me a note, prodding me.
