Carol, I have Herbert Mitchell and his wife Fanny coming to MI from MA in the early 1880's. They had 3 children: Dora (my g grandmother), Percey (Percy), and Stella. Dora was born in MA 1882, Percey in MI in 1886 and Stella in MI in 1890. Any of these helpful to you? I have more info if needed.

Does anyone have Mitchell's in Colorado or Michigan? I think I am looking for dates of Late 1800 or early 1900"s

I cannot find the message, but it seems there was someone with a Mitchell in Carroll Co., AR ???? Just trying to connect. Marlene

cheryl, If you have access to the 1880 census, which is at all the LDS Family History Librarys, you can search my state and then when you find them, you can also look to see who their neighbors were.........Jackie

It will give your James and Ida no matter which county they lived in at the time. It will also tell you where they were born (state) and their children's names and where they were born. Barbra

Well certainly, death cert. information isn't always reliable, but in my opinion, it's definately worth a try.I think MOST of the time the information on the death cert. would be correct. Doris

Social Security Application information would be good source but since the death certificate information is provided by another person there could be wrong information listed. This is the case with my 2nd great grandfather. His youngest son was the informant and listed his birthplace as Colmar, France when it was really Schwyz, Switzerland. So take caution when listing that information as fact.

I have some Mitchell and Everett connections in Chickasaw Co., MS. Do you know where they were before Blount Co., TN.? Doris

When did the great-grandfather die? I was able to get a death cert. on my great-grandfather. His parents should be listed on the cert. Happy hunting. Doris

You may be able to get a death cert. and/or Social Security application on your grandfather, that should list his parents. Doris

Richard I dont believe there any James in Lawrence Co in 1870 but I believe that there was a James born there that went to Arkansas after the war. I am writing from memory but I believe he went to around Ft Smith. Either he or his son later became the editor of a Little Rock newspaper. He married a woman from somewhere around Nashville Tenn. He was the son of a James from Monroe Co Indiana and there are still Mitchells living there from his line. I found the Robert Mitchell and wife in Hardeman Co Tenn both were born in County Down Ireland. They had children born in NY and NC before Tenn.

Conni, Maybe if you called and talked to them on the phone, that might help get them to submit a sample, sometimes just hearing the other person's voice can be an incentive. It's worth a try anyway. :) Doris

Conni, There is a test for women, but only for the mitochondrial dna which is passed from mother to daughter. I am thinking about doing that. Supposedly, one can trace back to one of 7 women who lived long long ago. Have a good day. :) Doris

Good Morning, I'm posting for the first time here. I'm taking my Daddy on some errands and will be back later today. Hope I get some emails from some cousins!

You might see if you can locate a copy of his marriage license. That's how I was able to locate my 2nd great grandfather Joseph's birthplace. It's information provided by that person and not someone else so it's more likely correct. We had my ancestor being born in Colmar, France for years and years but two separate searches of the archives in France did not find records. We found them for his father, George but not him. Then I got a copy of Joseph's marriage license and he said he was born in Switzerland not France. And a search there revealed the records I wanted to document his birth.
