I am looking for a Daniel Masters born in New Jersey about 1760. His dad is suppose to be from Paris France. Does that ring any bells at all. I have looked for this guy for about a year. I found him listed in the military(revolutionary war) for Ny. He married Rebecca Love from Pa. and they raised their 4 or 5 children in New York. Daniel died in 1807 in Stoney Island. No one can tell me where that is. Can you please help one Master to another. Thanks, Trese Masters Judd

I'll be more than happy to send the photos to you. There are 28 pictures from Oolenoy Baptist Church, with some Trotter gravestone photos; and, there are 28 pictures from Saluda Hills Baptist. The photos are large, so I'll have to send them all in separate e-mails. The Masters that are buried at both cemeteries, stem from a man named Thomas Masters, born 1754 in Rockbridge Co., VA. His wife was Margaret Shields, born 1783 in Rockbridge Co., VA. Rockbridge at the time was known as Botetourt Co., VA. I'm not sure when they migrated to SC, nor where they were from before they lived in VA. From there, my direct line begins with their son, Richard Masters, then his son Thomas, then his daughter Susan, then her son Abraham Lincoln Masters, who was my gr-gr-grandfather. Anyway - the pics will be coming shortly! -Dana

I hoping that someone on this message board knows Thomas and can pass the following information on to him and ask him to contact me. Some of the information that I have matches his while other information is quite similar.

On 12 July 1880, she married Nels L. Nelson in Lake Mills, IA. Nels was born on 29 April 1853 in Leikanger?, Norway. Oline passed away on 18 March 1945. Oline and Nels had 11 children who were apparently all born in Emmet, IA. Their children are as follows: Lewis B. Nelson - b. 29 May 1881, d. 5 May 1971, m.
