    3. Hello, Pleasant is a name found frequently in Henrico and Albemarle County, both as a first name and as a surname. They may have named the child for the place, but Bill was most likely right about the origin of the name Pleasant.......mosbycat -----Original Message----- From: James Watson <jdwatson@erols.com> To: MAUPIN-L@rootsweb.com <MAUPIN-L@rootsweb.com> Date: Sunday, November 05, 2000 8:10 PM Subject: [MAUPIN-L] An interesting tidbit from the reunion >I was just looking through Dorothy's book and saw the name Pleasant >Maupin.

    3. ______________________________________________ This has nothing to do with lineage. I'm Bettye, wife of Max Gail Maupin, in Rolla MO. At one time I went to school in a little town called Davenport, Oklahoma. I had a classmate named Pleasant Kimball - and it was a boy!!! Wonder if he is related to the Maupins? Something to check. Ha. _____________________________________________________ >Hello, > Pleasant is a name found frequently in Henrico and Albemarle County, both >as a first name and as a surname.

    2. MAUPIN REUNION 2000
    3. Good Morning Group!!! Back home, back online!!! Now I can correct and adjust all those errors I made at the Reunion on booklets, directories, reservations, pictures, etc. If you have or need corrections or adjustments please e-mail me privately. Now back the the name "Pleasant". For about ten years I searched for the "Pleasant" family connection, found none!! Then while working in the White Hall area was informed that the large plantation of the Wyant/Wiant family was named "Pleasant Retreat". The Wyants did not use this name in their family, but several of the families owning land with a two mile radius did. The Maupins, Ewells, Jarmans, and Ballards. The Ewell parcel adjoined this plantation. Shelton Key is on this Ewell line. I have it almost complete, then I found that someone had given me so information that was not accurate. Maxey Ewells wife was Ann Mullins, but she was not Matthews daughter, she was John Mullin's daughter. So now I have over three thousand people who are not Maupins. Well I plan to share them with Shelton Keys, so all my work was not go unused.
