Hello Yvonne I've been hoping to spit some of my Mitchell ancestors through the list too - The Mitchells from Alpheton and the surrounding area in Suffolk regards Tony

I am looking for information on William Thomas Mitchell Sr. I believe he was born about 1827 in possibly Ireland. He married Martha Jane Williams about 1847 possibly in New Columbia, Massac Co., Illinois. I know of possibly 4 children that they had: William Thomas Mitchell Jr (my ggreat grandfather, b. 12/28/1848 in New Columbia, Massac Co., Illinois; m. Nancy Francena Jones - Dec. 1869; d. 3/27/1883 in Johnson Co., Illinois), Wesley Mitchell (b. abt 1850 in possibly Union Co., Illinois), Rebecca T. Mitchell (b. abt 1852 in Union Co., Illinois; m. William Henry Johnson abt 1875; d. 2/14/1887 in Johnson Co., Illinois), and Sarah Mitchell (b. abt 1854 in Union Co., Illinois). Any information would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Ruth, It is amazing, isn't it? My relatives moved around a lot too... :-) One of the reasons that I asked is because I found an entry in a cemetery in Nevada Co. Ar. that mentions a Bascom Mitchell. I was told that it wasn't my Bascom. Maybe the Bascom mentioned is yours? Here's the web site: http://www.rootsweb.com/~arnevada/ephesus.txt If we're related, I don't see the connection...yet... :-) Good luck in your research, Janine

Tom, Have you considered dna testing? Most of our 20+ Mitchells already tested trace our ancestors back to Virginia or North Carolina in the 1700's. Some of us have found a relative and some have not, but we keep hoping. ============================ Aneita Mitchell Allen - aneitaa@hotmail.com Mitchell DNA project http://users.sisna.com/jimmitch/Mitchell%20Chart%20w%20text.htm ============================ >From: "Tom Mitchell" <tom-m@tyler.net> >Reply-To: MITCHELL-L@rootsweb.com >To: MITCHELL-L@rootsweb.com >Subject: [MITCHELL] William >Date: Mon, 24 Feb 2003 18:38:47 -0600 > >Cousins >I have been searching for 20 years for the parents or siblings of a William >Mitchell born around 1797-1800 somewhere in Virginia. >He was married in Mercer Co Kentucky in 1821 and moved to Lawrence Co >Indiana for the rest of his long life. >I am still looking. >cheers > > >==== MITCHELL Mailing List ==== >To contact the list administrator, please send a message to: >Mitchell-admin@rootsweb.com. _________________________________________________________________ The new MSN 8: advanced junk mail protection and 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail

Yvonne and others searching for English Mitchell ancestors. Yes, there are other people on this list who are searching for English Mitchell's. I've seen their e-mails. My ancestors don't connect with Mitchell's until the 1600s, when Jane Mitchell/Minshall, b. 1651 in Virginia and d. aft. 1678 in Somerset Co., MD. married in Somerset Co., MD on May 18, 1650 to Samuel Long b. 1640 in VA and d. Bef. 1695 in Somerset Co., MD. Her father as Jeffrey Mitchell/Minshall, b. Bet. 1621 and 1625 in Wistaston, County Chester, England and d. 1675 in Morumsco Section, Somerset Co., MD. He married Frances Caursley/Carsley on May 18, 1650 in Northhampton Co., VA. Jeffrey's father was Richard Minshull/Mitchell. That's all I have on my English Mitchell's. I do have siblings of Jane and Jeffrey. Joyce Delver

I haven't heard from the Mitchell list in ages and today I received a message with over 500 attachments! There is no way I can find the time to weed through all of those, even if I had the patience! If this is the way this list is going to operate, I'll be unsubscribing soon. Shirley

Yvonne: Go ahead and post your query. I've seen some for Mitchells in England and Australia. It's just that so many of us in the US are searching for our elusive Mitchells.

Attn: Yvonne Have Mary Ann Mitchell b in Greasbrough [Rotherham] YKS abt 1841, father John - near any of yours? Best Regards, Virginia, St George, UT

I finally had some luck tracing my Mitchells from Wisborough Green, Sussex. England. Jacob and wife Rhoda Mitchell came to New York aboard the ship Columbia in 1833 with children, John, Thomas, Mary, Ann James and Catherine. Also, was Jacob's mother, Elizabeth Mitchell age 75. Jacob born August 6, 1794 in Wisborough Green died July 12, 1873 Rhoda born April 14, 1797 in England died 1840 I also have dates for the children if anyone is interested.

Yes and I believe that is my next step. It seems that is the way of the future. It might take all the "fun" out of genealogy though. ----- Original Message ----- From: Aneita Allen To: MITCHELL-L@rootsweb.com Sent: Monday, February 24, 2003 6:50 PM Subject: Re: [MITCHELL] William Tom, Have you considered dna testing?

I finally managed to restore an old mail archive of mine, and found this while sorting things out. Does anyone have information on Willie C. Mitchell, daughter of John and Seine Mitchell of Coweta Co GA (see below for what little info I have)? I'm hoping this might be a reference on my elusive John Jay & Asenath Jones Mitchell from Coweta, parents of my gg-fa Henry Thomas Mitchell.

Hi Tom, My William Pennington Mitchell was also born somewhere in Virginia about the same time as yours. He came to Franklin County, Tn. & from there I don't know. My Great Grand Dad, his son born around 1830, came to Tx. in 1851 with his inlaws , John & Lucy Day. My William P. married Lucinda Banks. If in your looking, have you come across this William ? I will look for you in our research as we go. We, 3 of us cousins, have looked for years with no results. Our problem seems to be no names for sibs to tie in to a family. I guess that I wrote to let you know that we all seem to have trouble with some elusive William Mitchell. Ha ! Good Luck to you ! Billy G.

Likewise, Conni...and why is it that the unfindable Mitchell always seems to be "William" (or John, in my case...although his father is probably William.)
