My Response to the Roll Call: CARTERs and WHITMERs of Kingston, Caldwell Co. MO Thanks for the Roll Call. Charles Hall
Jerry, Thanks for your info. I have added into my database and have given you credit. I appreciate your offer for pics, I'm researching the McBRAYERs however, so don't think I'd be interested. Thomas Jefferson WHITT, son of Joseph O and Margaret, mar. Nettie McBRAYER. My connections to WHITTs are through the McBRAYERS. Nettie's great grandfather was brother to my direct line. THanks anyway! I am curious about REID I know that Orville Augustus Miller, married Sara Jane REID... How far back to you go for REID? I have a Joseph REID b. 1760... I found him in 1790 in Stokes Co., NC, neighbor of my William ARNOLD. William's son, Ralph, mar. Jane REID ca 1805 in NC or possibly Lincoln Co. TN... Any connections? Lanita
Happy to give you my sources on this family. I too have Wm M McCrary's death record. I read it as 1917. The handwriting is a mite on the bad side tho. His Civil War pension card says his wife is Nancy E and gives his death date as 1917 so that she could collect her widow's pension. I have the 1870 census that tells me they had two children at that time named Lorinda J and Sarah. The 1880 census was also in Sheridan Twp and tells me that they then had a daughter named Elizabeth, In the 1910 census they were still in Sheridan Twp. and were married 45 years. It also says they had 4 children and 2 were still living. I have two obit's on William Merrill McCrary that tells me his wife was Nancy Ellen and that they had 4 children. Two of them died as infants and 2 were still living. One of them was "Rina" Bristow and the other one was "Betty" Pendleton of St. Joseph, MO. I have never found the name of their 4th child. I have a death record for Betty Pendleton that says her husband's name was Ambrose Pendleton and she was a widow at that time. I also have two books that are full of information on the McCrary family, Wm. Merrill McCray is included in these books. These books are: "The Whitaker Family of Buncombe, North Carolina" by Bruce Whitaker. The other book is written by Brenda Givens and has a long title.about several families of northern MO. You can probably find them in both of the libraries of Gallatin and Hamilton. For the most part they are very well researched, but not on my line which is Silas Benjamin McCrary. This line leaves a lot to be desired. It is very incomplete and some of their information is just plain wrong. How else can I be of help?

I taught at UMKC for a number of years, part-time and tried to find ways of not making my students look like idiots even when they sounded like they might be -- guess it stuck. And I've seen so many misunderstandings online that I tend to walk on eggs when questioning other people's info. Life's too short to make it any messier than it has to be. A couple of us were working with a researcher a few years back on a mutual Roberts line. The one guy was doing some serious digging back east; courthouses, cemeteries, and such but he was SO obnoxious we were glad when he finally sent what he entitled "Rocky's Final Assessment." So far as he was concerned he had put everyone in their proper places and that was the end of it. He even got a little testy because we were looking at HIS particular branch's collaterals -- like why should we care about them, they weren't OUR families! Almost as if he were hiding something. He was a case. Said he was a former private detective. If I ever run across another one I'll be on guard, let me tell ya. By the way, I liked your tagline about sharing your ignorance. Don't we all?

Yep, of course you're right, it is 1917... thanks for the heads up and correction.. .I also appreciate your way of telling me that I was incorrect... have not been corrected in such a nice way in such a long time... Lanita
Okay, will double check... good chance my eyes were bad that day!! Lanita

I believe it should be 1917. I just looked at the image and I'm sure it's a 7, not a two. It gives his age as 75 which would be correct for 1917 -- b. in 1842.
