As I understood it, she's talking about the way you have to puzzle over the genealogy of your family when you're searching for information.

Hello Pat, Here are my Gilmore details. I haven't pursued this line much because I am descended from Calvin Wayne McKinney through his marriage to Roena (Rowena) Gilmore.

They had twelve children: Caswell, John, James, Narcissus, Mary M., Amelia "Milly", Sarah, Serena, Elijah, Fountain L., William or Wilburn, and Frances Rosa. I have a lot of info on this family.

Hello Kara (and the rest), My earliest McKinney on record is Henry, born around 1764 probably in North Carolina, but we have been unable to find much about his early life. He died in Cole County, Missouri in 1836. His children were mostly born in Campbell County, Tennessee, and the family settled in Cole County and then moved on to Texas County, MO. I am descended from his son James William, then Calvin Wayne, then James Wayne, whose daughter Leone Almira was my maternal grandmother. James Wayne and wife Sarah Elizabeth J. Cook (caughter of Daniel Cook and Clarinda Elmira Pratt) are both buried in the old Eminence Cemetery in Shannon County. Do we have a connection? All the best, Ron > I have McKinney's in my line. Where do yours come from?? > Kara

Hello everone, I'm here in Australia .... a long way from the scene of Katrina's destructive forces. We are getting a great deal of news coverage about the tragedy here, both in the newspapers and on all TV channels, and of course those of us with a closer connections to the area or country are spending a good deal of time on the internet. Its appalling! Ron Burnett in Melbourne, Australia (who calls Shannon County home). Burnett/Wilson/Shoemate, Holland/Swafford/Bates/McKinney/Cook/Gilmore
