On doing a search for the name Costine or Corstine MILLS comes up on rootsweb. Nothing in the data bases, but one item for other record. When you click on it, comes up a census listing of Surry Co. NC, but the interpreted the James MILLS as James R MILLS, with Costine isted farther down the page age 76, etc. with Feby. Not sure who this familymight be. Had not heard of this name prior, even though, not all that familiar with too many NC MILLS families. Only one most listed the John MILLS HARROLD BEALS BATES BOWATER< etc. one. Pat cw again, not my MILLS line, but possibly it intersects with many others. Same general area though. Oh, my gosh, what a surprise just now. Just a real drenching down pour of rain here, this minute. Portland, Oregon on the south west side of town, near Beaverton. Hope not like the deluge Chicago got Friday, they had 7 inches very short time span. Flooded the city and most of the basements. The sewer system could not handle it, and the waste water management people had to open the gates to let the water flow in the Lake Michigan. Is that another fall out, I wonder from Hurricane IKE? storm came up from the Gulf of Mexico. In a message dated 9/21/2008 10:19:12 A.M.

Mills, listed as 38, are in Dobson Township, Surry County, NC In listing 9 of their children, their second child is R. F. Mills. Could this be Rebecca? She is listed just before James K. Mills. (We have already discussed the fact that no president had the last name starting with K. I think this was a mistake on the part of the census taker.) The ages seem to match what I have listed for this family. Also, this is another spelling of the first name. I now have 5. If Austine Mills is him, that makes 6. No wonder we are having problems tracking him down. Also, 1880 census lists Corstine Mills of Eldora, Surry, North Carolina as being 76 and his wife is listed as Feby (could be another census taker mistake and is a phonetic spelling.) Do you suppose they moved back to Virginia? I am still looking for a death in NC. Virginia (James Polk Mills great granddaughter) PS I just want to say thanks to one and all, you have each added so much info to my Family Tree file. ____________________________________ Looking for simple solutions to your real-life financial challenges? _Check out WalletPop for the latest news and information, tips and calculators_ (http://pr.atwola.com/promoclk/100000075x1209382257x1200540686/aol?redir=http://www .walletpop.com/?NCID=emlcntuswall00000001) . **************Looking for simple solutions to your real-life financial challenges?

Pat, none of the Mills' names ever coincide with my family. However, it has been pouring for two days north of you. I am already very tired of winter. Did this storm really come from the Gulf? I hope that these folks link up somehow to the Mills' family to which they belong.
