Hello Cousins, I was looking for information on Anne Larchevasque on various sites. I used L'Archevasque, Larchevesque, and other variations. As I was looking in Rouen, Normadie, France, I found a Guillaume "William" Larchevé(s)que married to Jeanne Alère. For a time, they lived in Dieppe, Rouen, France, which if memory serves me correctly is supposed to be a possible birth place for our Anne. They had a son named Claude Larchevé(s)que born about 1620 in St. Avoye de Grugny, Rouen, Normandie, France and died 5 May 1659 in Quebec, Canada. This Claude married 6 Feb 1645 Marie Simon, daughter of François Simon and Louise Lemoine. I was wondering if this Larchevé(s)que line could be any relation to our Anne Larchevasque, since both families were in Normandie. This is just me being curious. Thanks. Your cousin, Bradley C.

FROM ME TO YOU............... My Christmas Card List There is a list of of folks I know All written in a book And every year at Christmas time I go and take a look. And that is when I realize Those names are all a part Not of the book they're written in But deep within my heart. For each name stands for someone Who has touched my life sometime, And in that meeting they've become A special friend of mine. I really feel that I'm composed Of each remembered name, And my life is so much better Than it was before they came. Once you've known that someone All the years cannot erase The memories of a pleasant word Or of a friendly face. So never think my Christmas cards Are just a mere routine Of names upon a list that are Forgotten in between. For when I send a Christmas card That is addressed to you, It is because you're on the list Of folks I'm indebted to. And whether I have known you For many years or few, The greatest gift that God can give Is having friends like you! Happy Holidays, Carolyn Farmer

Hi Carolyn, That was wonderful! Did you compose it? I'd like to wish all my cousins a Merry Xmas and a safe and joyous holiday.

Mary: Thanks for passing the book information on! Cuz Sandi

There is a new book hot off the press about Port Republic VA. It's title is "Port Republic", The History of a Shenandoah Valley River Town. It was actually written during the late 20s or early 30s, but has just been published. The following Maupin's are mentioned: Daniel James A. Josephine Laura V. Mary A. T.L. tyre Col. W.A. William Allen William Henry Harrison William J. Maupin/Lamb house There is a picture of the above house and also a picture of William Henry Harrison Maupin taken about 1867/68. Haven't had a chance to read it yet. It's available thru: History Book Society of Port Republic Preservationists, Inc. P.O. Box 82 Port Republic VA 24471. It's $25.00 plus $4.00 postage. Mine was a Xmas present from a Maupin cousin, Tom Aycock, who actually lives in Port Republic now. Thought you all might be interested. Mary

Hello William, Thank you for this information. Looks like the Maupins, Hollingsworth and Reeds all stayed prety close to each other.

Good Morning Bill, and Cousins, Happy to hear you are still working on the Maupin, Crosthwaite and Hollingsworth lines. When I have "spare time", the Albemarle Co. Johnson/Via and the Hollingsworth/Reed/Reid are the lines I am concentrating on currently. I also have the J. Maupin estate settlement - and know the Hollingsworth, Reed (Reid), Hensley, Hubbards all intermarried. I need to travel to TN and KY (probably next July). I am also working on theory that Rhoda Reed (dtr of Stephen) was of the Cherokee nation. That may be hard to actually prove as we have been attending powwows and have spoken to many N.A. and have been told that if she "left the reservation willingly" and became "white" (or sometime black on the census) that she was "disowned" by the tribe. Isn't this fun - but that is what keeps us going - "that hidden piece of the puzzle".

Good Morning, Group!!! Just reviewing some of the original documents on John and Sally Maupin and I thought I would tell everyone that Sally signed her name in two ways on John's estate receipts. She signed "Sally" and "Sallie", so either apparently is correct according to her own hand. It is very, very probable that there is another daughter Sarah (Sally) Maupin who was marriet to Isaac Hollingsworth, then Edward Applegate and last to Elijah Griffin. The is probably going to be one other missing daughter, Margaret. Still working on her. The marriage records for these two daughters are yet to be found, but the early work of a descendant says there were eleven children. Three of the Hollingsworth's were involved with John Maupin's estate settlement in 1824, John and William were apprasiers with Howard Maupin. Beasley Hollingsworth purchased items and the sale of John's belongings. These three Hollingsworth were brother to Isaac Hollingsworth the (by 1824) deceased husband of Sarah Maupin. These Hollingsworth's father was Vincent Hollingsworth and their mother was Mary Beasley. Other children of this family married names you will recognize as married to other John Maupin descendants. Martha Hollingsworth married Lemuel Lunsford and Winny Hollingworth! married Stephen Reed. I am still working on this Vincent Hollingsworth family and linking the many descendants to the Maupin descendants of Clay County, Kentucky. William Albertson [email protected]

[Civil War Christmas] http://www.bitsofblueandgray.com/december_2002.htm CHRISTMAS. The 1914 Christmas Truce. On Christmas Day 1914, the first Christmas of The Great War, an amazing cessation of hostilities took place in some sections of the British front line. This is an account of the truce in the Sailly – Armentiers sector manned by George ANDERSON, George GORDON, William MILNE, Alexander PINE and their comrades of 6th Batallion, The Gordon Highlanders. The account is taken from The Sixth Gordons in France and Flanders, published 1921. http://www.kinnethmont.co.uk/1914-1918_files/xmas-truce.htm Previously published in MISSING LINKS, Vol. 7, No. 50, 16 December 2002 http://www.petuniapress.com

Hello Everyone: I just returned from the funeral of one of my favorite uncles. I thought some of you would be interested in his obituary. This is as it was printed on the memorial service folder (although I did correct one inaccuracy and added a few more details for your edification). Also, following is his direct Maupin line. The Maupin Ancestry Line for Paul Holt Harmon Gabriel Maupin - Marie Hersent Daniel Maupin - Margaret Via Jesse Maupin - Lucy Jones Mosias Maupin, Sr. - Leah Downey William Maupin - Sarah Perkins Mosias Maupin, Jr. - Nancy Patton John Maupin - Mary Virginia (Polly) Maupin Malinda Elizabeth Maupin - William Edward Holt Ollie Ethel Holt - Rollie Addison Harmon (Paul Holt Harmon is one of the sons of this union) Paul Holt Harmon Paul, 73, was called home on November 29, 2002, in Tacoma, WA. He was born to Rollie Addison Harmon and Ollie E. (Holt) Harmon in St. Louise, MO, on December 19, 1928. He was preceded in death by his parents, two brothers (Glenn Calvin Harmon and Robert Edward Harmon) two brothers-in-law (Jerry Rowe and William McGreevy) and three nieces/nephews (Barbara Jean [Harmon] Stanley, Charles Harold Carson, Jr. and William Edward Harmon). Paul's greatest love was that for his family, and he is survived by his loving wife, June Maurine (Kennedy) Harmon, of 53 years, and: Son: James Holt Harmon - Wanda Jean ?? (no issue) Grandchildren: Heather & Coral (from first wife) Daughter: Susan Maurine Harmon - Randall Oyster Grandchild: Kristen Daughter: Margaret Ellen Harmon - Jeffrey Tyrone Nelson Grandchildren: Matthew Tyrone & Marla Maurine Daughter: Linda June Harmon - Patrick Swiger Grandchildren: Megan Nicole, Jason Daniel, Michael James Also surviving him are one brother, John Rex and his wife Lucille Mae (Mangers), four sisters, Myra Louise (Harmon) McGreevy, Myrtle Eudora (Harmon) & Henry Frank Poston, Margaret Ellen (Harmon) Rowe and Frances Eilene (Harmon) Davidson; fifty nieces and nephews and numerous great nieces & nephews. He will be missed by many as we say so long for now. His family moved to Tacoma in 1948 when his father became the minister at the First Christian Church in Roosevelt Heights. Paul completed his high school education at Puyallup High School and attended Pacific Lutheran University for one year before commencing his working career, which would culminate with the position of Chief Executive Officer for Cascade Trailways. Additionally, Paul served on the Board of Directors with Tacoma Industrial Trust and was a past President of the Washington Motorcoach Association. Besides several affiliations with business organizations, Paul was a member of the Tacoma Elks Lodge. One of Paul's passions was the buying and selling of antiques and collectibles, which he aggressively pursued into his retirement years. ### from Ruth Townsend (Harmon) PS: If you want to read more about him, you can log onto www.mountainviewtacoma.com That is the website of the funeral home, and it has quite a bit more about his life on it.

In a message dated 12/5/02 3:23:23 PM, [email protected] writes: << In 1849 Garrett, Howard and There families left Missouri for Oregon at some point shortly after leaving all the Maupins and there friends turned back to Missouri. >> Hi Michael: I'm sure you know that Howard Maupin was a first cousin of my GG granddaddy, John Maupin, who married Mary Jane Williams. John & Mary Jane stayed in Kentucky until 1874 when they went to Indian Territory by wagon train, now Grady CO, Oklahoma. So, the Oregon Maupinites are of a great deal of interest to me. Of course, all Maupinite relations are of interest. Thanks for sharing that information. Cuz Sandi Your 5th cousin
