Ron, Unfortunately from your email I cannot tell who the Lorraine Mills is that is your cousin. Is she the Lorraine Mills Belden who lives in Iowa? Thanks. Ken Mills

My PAF program does not have a spell checker. It had a name checker. The new version, seems to have dropped that exercise.

40 years of Mills research, never saw a Hurry. I suspect suggestion of spellchecker is valid. ----- Original Message ----- From: <MILLS-D-request@rootsweb.com> To: <MILLS-D@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, March 18, 2006 2:00 PM Subject: MILLS-D Digest V06 #52

Dave Thanks for the quick reply. My only interest in Charity is as a possible mother to my William, but since I do not know who his father was for sure, I'm shooting in the dark. Every census has that William was born in NC so the marriage of John & Charity 18 Jan 1774 is the most likely but early since William was born around 1802 the birth record I found in the Family Data Collection Database at Ancestry has a William born to John and Charity on 5 Oct 1798. It is entirely possible that William came from another Mills line all together, but so far the only births of a William I have found in NC are to John & Charity, Aaron E & Charity, Mordicai & Charity, Aaron & Charity and William & Lydia Perkins Mills. The surname of the above mentioned Charity's is Mendenhall. What I need is to find something that links William to a Mills line in NC and so far I have had very little success. Trudy Let me know if there is a specific Charity that you have an interest in - There are three Charity Mendenhall's In the John Mills Sr. b. ca 1688 line and two married into the Mills family, They marriages are; Marriage on 18 Jan 1774 New Garden MM, Guilford Co., NC H I p562. Aaron Mills and Charity Mendenhall. They had a son named Mordecai b. 31 Jan 1775, but he died in his 20th year. Marriage on 19 Dec 1795 Lost Creek MM, Jefferson Co., TN H I p1109 John Mills and Charity Mendenhall Marriage on 25 Jan 1792 Springfield, NC William Stanfield and Charity Mendenhall, This couple moved to Clinton Co. OH in their later years. This may be the right Mills line and maybe not. let me know if any further information will help.

If your research proves out with church records or marriage records that Abigail MILLS was a dau of an Amos MILLS, Sr. very good. That family seems to be documented by many that it goes back to George MILLS of Jamaica, LI NY. You previously posted that you did not know what the last names were of Phoebe CLARK's parents. I read it June 19 2005, and made a note on my MISC MILLS file. When I read it, you had Phoebe's parents as Amos and Abigail, but no last names. Did you find in the meantime, a record that showed that Amos was CLARK, and that Abigail was a MILLS? Or that Amos was a MILLS and Abigail was a CLARK? pat cw

Esrom Mills was the son of Peter Mills and Lucinda Doughtery who lived in Timber Twp., Peoria Co. I do not have an obit or death certificate for Esrom, but he is mentioned in the obits of his sisters. Peter Mills, b. 1857 is probably Peter E. Mills, b. Aug 1856, a brother to Esrom. This information comes from Joyce Hagerty. This is not my own Mills family, but this Mills family lived in the same county as my own Mills family, that of Gideon Mills b. 1798 NY and his son William H. Mills b. 1827 NY. Esrum Mills b. 1850 IN, married 12-24-1874 to Mary Purchase in Fulton Co IL, and they are shown on the 1880 census living at Orion Twsp, Fulton Co IL, kids are: Christin A.; Elizabeth L. Peter Mills b. 1857 IL is listed separately in Fulton Co IL 1880 census. Best regards, Lilly Martin

Fellow Mills researchers Let me throw another William in the mix. My William showed up in Alabama Pike Co on the 1850 census. pg 135 age 48 born in NC with: Ellender. (48) and Isaac (19), Andrew(17), James(12), Francis(10) and Henry(8) also listed with this family is a Helen Rhodes age 20. In 1860 he is in the Pike Co AL census pg 148 age 57 with Eleanor age 60 and Henry(18) and Sarah(12) next door to John Mills age 36 born in NC. The 1870 census of Pike Co. AL (beat 21 Troy) has a William age 69 born in NC with a Joseph,(20) Sally(22) and Matthew(14) next door to a Henry age 26 born in AL and another William age 68 born in NC (beat 21 Orion)with Susan E(21), Joel(20), George W(16) and Martha(13) all born in AL. I haven't sorted out which is the William who was married to Ellender/Eleanor yet. In 1840 there were several Mills' in Pike Co AL Solomon age 30-40 on pg. 371, Andrew age 40-50 on pg 378, James age 20-30 pg. 380, Moses age 60-70 and John age 30 to 40 on pg. 394. Most of these had large families and there are plenty of Mills' in subsequent census, but none of the above can be found in Pike in 1850 except for the John living next to William in 1850. There were no other males in Moses' household. I have no idea who Williams parents were. I found a few Williams born in NC. 1. born 2 Feb 1792 in Guilford Co to William Mills and Lydia Perkins this one is a about 10 years too early if my William was indeed 48 in 1850, 2. 20 Feb 1794 in Deep River, Guilford Co. to Aaron Mills and Charity Mendenhall, still a little early, 3. 20 Feb 1794 to Mordecai Mills and Charity Mendenhall, 4. 28 Feb 1794 Roan, NC to Aaron Mills and Charity E Mendenhall, 5. October 1798 to John Mills and Charity Mendenhall this one is a little closer in age, but now the question arises who was Charity really married to Aaron John or Mordecai. Folks I love a good puzzle but this is getting ridicules. I hope there is someone out there who can help me I would love to find Williams's parents and siblings if he had any. Any hints where I can find the info will be greatly appreciated. I have some info on his descendants and am willing to share.

Pat, It was sent to you, I was not asking about Hurry, I'm pointing out the error in that line of thought if it relates to John Mills Sr. b ca 1688 and his descendants named Hur. Hurry Mills may very well exist, just not in John Mills Sr. line. If I saw Hurry used instead of Hur for this family I would know that the proper research and conformation had not been completed. I expect and require more than a phone conversation or a WEB site reference. Just as a side note, we know that John Mills Sr. most likely was born is England, but there is also a chance he was born in PA or VA. Hur is a name that was used in Wales that has been translated as Hugh. Your note Pat- >He is mostly known by Hurry MILLS rather than Hur or Hurr. > >Pat >cw >At least that is how I have seen it listed.

I am not sure who were you asking about Hurry MILLS, but in my source file attached to that download it shows: Aka Hurry MILLS on all of the Hur or Hurr listed. Also on some of the Hurry MILLS it lists my source as from the "Don de Jose Ortega" DAR records listed from Mildred Jones. Mildred's information came from her direct through our telephone conversations from back before 1990. I am still trying to find her daughters telephone number to find where they donated all of her research, documents her acceptance into the DAR. Also on Hur Hurr or Hurry MILLS one source lists from White.FTW and Graves.FTW. Within that download also is listed "White Family Bible: And again "White Family Bible" owned by daughter, Anna E Hunt White. You might check on either rootsweb.com or gencircles.com or genealogy.com and maybe get a reference that way to where those names listed might have come. Some of the them may be also just repeated copying? DO NOT KNOW. As does happen. Pat cw

Hello, Recently I posted all my MILLS families of Fulton Co IL and among them was mentioned Amos Mills married to Catherine Gullick. This is NOT my own family, but I remember the names, and now you mention these names again. The researcher who is working on the Mills-Gullick family in Fulton Co IL is Joyce hag@winco.net I hope that you 2 can share some data together.

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Mills, Pullum Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/jE1.2ACEB/3523 Message Board Post: I would like to add another John Mills to the list. My John Washington Mills is my GGGrandfather and is first found listed in the census in Smith County, Tennessee in 1850 living with his parents (John and Martha) and siblings. Parents John and Martha are listed as being born in Virginia. John Washington Mills married Sarah Gorden (Salley) Pullum and they moved from Tennesse to Illinois, finally settling in Malden, Missouri, where they both are buried. They had seven sons. One son, Jennings Bates Mills, is my GGrandfather, his son Alonzo Calvin Mills is my grandfather, his son Alonzo Jackson Mills is my father. Jennings Bates Mills moved his family to Texas in 1900. Does anyone recognize this John Mills or this line of Mills?

Hurry! Do you have a will for a Hurry Mills? Do you have land transfer for a Hurry Mills? Do you have a reference for a Hurry Mills in the Encyclopedia of Quaker Genealogy by William Hinshaw? I have seen Hur or Hurr Mills in all three of the above sources, but never Hurry Mills. Also, Hinshaw has 5 volumes and not one Hurry Mills listed, and its records stop in 1930. Maybe your reference source used an automatic spell checker. Hurl, Hurt & Hurry are three of the replacements that can be found for using spell check on Hur.
