Hi Stacy, In which county in WI did he die? Doris

There was a Pleasant Mitchell in Monroe Co Indiana in the early to mid 1800s. I believe he was well known in Bloomington and maybe a doctor.

Thanks for the suggestion Doris. I think they are going to search Rockingham, Rockbridge and Bedford as well as another county that I can't remember. (I'm rather worried about them being in the Virginia area with the sniper though!) This cousin is determined that she is going to learn something about our family during this trip or else! If nothing she is meeting several of the very distant cousins during the three weeks. Conni Mitchell Braun

Hi guys: I was wondering if anyone has the following names in their family of Mitchell's Freeman deloss Harvey or Oliver Edward Mary Stella Clara Bell Maggie Delavin I have run across the names of Freeman Deloss and Harvey in the southern states.. Just can't make a connection yet? Anyone searching the southern Mitchell's have any ideas? Charles F. Mitchell is my earliest Mitchell decendant b. 1834 NY. died in Wisconsin 1888. Anyone? Stacy :)

Hi Max I don't know if the Pleasant Mitchell I have was a Dr, nor do I have a location or date. I have no spouse, I have no children for Pleasant. What I do have is a Pleasant Mitchell, s/o Mark Mitchell. Mark Mitchell was the s/o Joab Mitchell (1721 - 1780) who "was an early settler of Grindal Shoals, SC.; Joab and family left SC for TN before the 'War of the Revolution' "; this from the book "History of Grindal Shoals" by Rev. J.D.Bailey. No date or location for Mark or Pleasant; other children of Mark Mitchell -- siblings of Pleasant Mitchell; Thomas Mitchell B: 1794 Elizabeth Mitchell B: 1796 Louisa Mitchell B: 1798 Mark Mitchell, (Jr) B: 1800 Wm Mitchell James Conway Mitchell Pleasant Mitchell May I ask what information you have on Mark Mitchell?

Does someone have a list of the family of Dr. Pleasant Mitchell of Gibson County TN? I have some new info about Mark Mitchell, who I think was Dr. Mitchell's father. Max Crocker Lexington KY

You know there was a William Self who bought some land with an Aquilla Mitchell in Fayette co., AL. I think that's right anyway. I wonder if William Self is any relation to your family? Doris Mitchell

Greetings: I decided to try this query again in the hope that someone will note a connection of some sort. No response thus far; but we continue to hope. JSH --------- Forwarded message ---------- From: john p hammett <joycejohnhmmt@juno.com> To: Mitchell-L@rootsweb.com Date: Wed, 21 Aug 2002 12:42:36 -0700 Subject: various Searching for several persons with name MITCHELL. Would appreciate any information that might be helpful. 1. Eliza Jane Self m. Levi Mitchell [son of Dempsey Mitchell] in January 1861 in Sevier Co.,AR. In 1870 they were living in Franklin Co., AR. with 3 sons. One more son was born, then Levi apparently died sometime after the mid-1870s. Searching for a later marriage for Jane Self Mitchell. 2. Robert B. Mitchell m. Tabitha Ann [Bitha] Self on 20 January 1889 in Polk Co., AR. Bitha died in October 1895, leaving 4 children. In July 1897, R. B. Mitchell m. Miss Nannie Ward in Polk Co., AR. At the October term of 1904 of Polk County Probate Court, a J. H. Mitchell [believed to be a brother] was named administrator of the estate of R. B. Mitchell. Final settlement was reached in October 1905. In July 1905, Bitha's brother, I. E. Self, was named Guardian and Curator of the minor heirs of Robt. and Tabitha Mitchell. His purpose was to sell real estate for the benefit of the children, whose names were Lula Bell, Kittie, Robert, and Ode Mitchell. Searching for any information re: these children or their descendants. 3. R. A. [Dick} Mitchell m. Rebecca Harris in December 1859 in Calhoun Co., AR.

Conni, you may have already read this, but it contains much information on the formation of early Rockingham co. in VA. http://www.rootsweb.com/~varockin/wayland/Chap4.htm Doris Mitchell

Did you try sending for the death cert.? Doris Mitchell

Conni, I just thought of something else, have her check neighboring counties to Rockingham, and the county which Rockingham was formed from. Doris Mitchell

Thanks David. Hopefully she will call again today. We missed her call yesterday and I have misplaced her cell phone number. She is pretty determined to find some good information about our Mitchell ancestors. Conni Mitchell Braun

Thanks Jennifer. Our problem is that we know where our Old William Mitchell was born (from Revolutionary War pension application) and where he died (from his will in Madison County, Missouri). What we don't know are the names of his parents or his wife. We believe he was married in Virginia as the first 2-3 children were born there and we think the wife died in Grainger County, Tennessee where the family settled after leaving Virginia. Unfortunately we haven't found any records yet to provide names for these individuals. Thank you for your suggestions. Conni Mitchell Braun

Hi Jean, Just found out that my Grandfather's sister Jane Mitchell married a Hepburn and recided in Lester St. Coorparoo Brisbane in 1930 aged 37. Love to know if she had any children. Fran

Hi Fran Thats good news. What you need now is a copy of the death certificate. That will have all the children on it. I can ask my friend here in Victoria to check on that for you if you like. Diggers deaths and marriages and births are all on a CD but not cheap. She has them as she is a Genealogy tutor. You might also get access to them at your local library or Genealogy Group. Are you near Brisbane - Local Council might help seeing as you have an address. Or just post a letter to that address - people are very helpful. I'll see what I can do. Fran do you know of "family search.org" site. click on to ancestors and then on to International Genealogy Index and fill-in details. I have a lot of fun with that site.

Connie: If she has time, in addition to poking around Rockingham County itself, she should go to the Virginia State Library in Richmond and the Virginia Historical Society on Boulevard. They have the best collection of ancient Va. records, especially Will and estate records and other records dating back into the early 18th Century. Go to the genealogical library section of the VSL and ask for help. They are most accommodating. You will have to join the VSL to get into some of the material, but it is worth the minor cost. The microfilm collection of ancient wills is mind-boggling. I spent a week there a few years ago and collected all my ancestral wills to about 1724. Tell her to bring lots of change for the copiers and microfiche machines. -David B. Mitchell
