Pauline, Do you have Dicy Middleton's maiden name and did she have a second marriage? Thanks. Tony

Pauline, After all the trips to SLC and Natchez one would think you are the one who should be telling the rest of us who all the Middletons hiding under rocks happen to be! I think your holding out on us.<g> John Middleton was b. Abt 1764. He married Elizabeth (surname unknown). One of their children was Mary Middleton, b. 9 Nov 1790 (probably in SC). She m. Abt 1809 presumably in what became Franklin County, John Porter. John Porter was b. 1785 in NC and d. 1834 in Franklin Co.,MS. Tony Miller in Calabasas, CA

Stephen Middleton was listed on Franklin Co. MS 1810 census with the following: 2 M ov 21 (1 is Stephen); 3 M un 21(James George, Levi Evans & Stephen Nicholas); 1 F ov 21 (Leodicia aka Dicy); 3 F un 21. Priscilla Josphine wasn't b. till 1812 so is not included in this census. Stephen was an early settler 1802-3, need to find who was the other M ov 21 a son or who? Who were the 3 F un 21, are they his daughters or who? Could they be family members or some relatives? All Help appreciate, thanks. Pauline Hallett pollywog@laughlin.net

Samuel Middleton is listed in the 1810 MS Franklin Co. census with the following: 1 M ov 21 (Samuel); 1 M un 21; 1 F ov 21 (wife). Samuel was an early settler problably ca 1803, what is his wifes name and the name of the 1 M un 21. Pauline Hallett pollywog@laughlin.net

In the 1810 Franklin Co. MS census it has Mary Middleton, widow of Willis Middleton, with following; 1 M un 21; 1 F ov 21 (Mary); 5 F un 21. Martha Patsy m. 1808 so is not included in this census. Would like to have names of the 5 F un 21 and the 1 M un 21. Pauline Hallett pollywog@laughlin.net

In the 1810 Franklin Co. MS census it lists John Middleton with 1 M ov 21; 2 M un 21; 2 F ov 21; 4 F un 21. John is the M ov 21, can anybody give me his wifes name, the 2 males un 21 and the 2 F ov 21 and the 4 F un 21. He is one of the early settlers coming to MS probably ca 1803. Pauline Hallett pollywog@laughlin.net

Anna E. McCoy who m. Ellis Monroe Byrd is connected to my family. She was the dau. of John William McCoy and Mary Ann Flowers. John William was son of Elizabeth Lee and James M. McCoy. Elizabeth was the dau. of Thomas Lee, Sr. and Milly Gennette Barefoot, my ggg-grandparents. Elizabeth was sister to my gg-grandfather John Lee.

one of the Meredith children married John David Hollinger in Franklin County. They had a large family and moved to Ark. I have data on the family if you areinterested. Who was Harriet's first husband and what was her maiden name? After she died, Henry Meredith married a Curtin-Graves-Gilbert woman with one Gilbert child. Mary and Henry had one child, I believe.
