I do see a Lydia Shropshire who was the d/o Thomas Shropshire and Martha J. [McNeil] Womack, age 1 in 1870--but--this was not the Lydia who md. my John Duncan Ashley. This Lydia was b. 1850 but I can not find her on the 1860 census and haven't a clue to her parents. I am trying to sort the Shropshires for my Day book. Have to get it done in the next 3 days to get it printed out and over to MS before the reunion the 17th. Decided at the last moment, almost, to ad the descendants of Jonathan Day's children by his first wife. They include the descendants of John and Walter Shropshire. Also trying to find data on Mrs. Ella Shropshire who md. Thomas J. Shropshire 15 April 1897. He seems to be the son of Thomas and Martha but who is she and who was her first husband? I can not find the previous marriage. Do hope you have something on these folks and won't mind sharing. Be glad to e-mail you what I come up with on these lines, if you need it.

I am looking for information on John H. B. Morton who married Ann Fouriquet in Wilkinsom Co in 1833. Could someone tell me how I might obtain a copy of the marriage license. John was born around the turn of the century in MD and Ann, I believe in NY. Any information of these families would be welcome. Thanks Betty BB>

I am lokking for a Alexander Powell that lived in Wilkinson Co. around 1840 to 1870. Can anyone tell me about this Alexander Powell and his Family. I am try to find out if he is the one that married in Monroe Co. Miss. in 1847. India J. Wolf [email protected]

Thanks. Now the next question: Who is this Thomas Shropshire? I have found him, in various files, as the son of Walter and Tabitha Day Shropshire. I don't think so. Walter & Tabitha had a son, Thomas, age 8 in 1850. In the 1860 census he was still in their household, age 18. Thomas Shropshire md. Martha I/J? Shropshire, 23 Nov, 1859 and is 43 in the 1860 census. See below. I also have him as the s/o John and Mary Day Shropshire, a better possibility, but can't remember where I found that information. Mary and John Shropshire md. in 1816. This Thomas would have been born about 1817, so the age would fit. Since there was an older Thomas Shropshire in Amite co., could this is a brother to John and Walter THOMAS SHROPSHIRE 1850 Wilkinson county Federal census, household 650 family 654 SHROPSHIRE Thos. 33 M Planter MS HEATHERINGTON Pinckney 20 M Laborer MS 1860 Census, Wilkinson county, MS page 538 Woodville Sept 130 129 SHROPSHIRE Thomas 43 m planter $2,000 $1,000 MS Martha J. 24 f Thomas Shropshire md Martha I Womack 23 Nov 1859 ----- Original Message ----- From: "Robbie Griggs Landry" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, April 17, 2003 11:42 PM Subject: Re: [MSWILKIN] Shropshire > I show Lydia L.

I have just discovered many of the Rootsweb messages, as well as private messages, are not getting through to me. My internet server added a filter, which I knew, and is filtering out lots of messages that I would have wanted to receive, including answers to message I sent to the list. I do receive some of the messages, but not all of them. I hope I have it corrected but if you have sent me a message and I have not replied, I probably didn't get it. Virginia

Dear Researchers - I took the liberty of cutting and pasting this information from the Copiah Co. rootsweb. Many of the earlier settlers of Wilkinson Co. later went to Copiah Co. when that territory was *ceded* by the Choctaws (and probably others). Prior to coming to Wilkinson Co. and adjoining Louisiana parishes, many settlers came from South Carolina and Georgia, and may have connections to some of the males listed here. I hope Nancy Brister (and Olivia Saffold) doesn't mind. Nancy gives Olivia as her source for this information, so please use that source. But, keep in mind, mistakes do happen in transcriptions.

It is assumed that anyone that is posting to this list is refering to people who lived in Wilkinson county, we really do need a time period, and a full name, if known. I don't know about your ancestors but mine had a habit of using the same names over and over. If you have a birth date, death date, name of wife or child, tell us. Every clue helps. And if your Wilkinson county ancestor lived somewhere before he/she came to Wilkinson county, and/or somewhere after leaving Wilkinson County, we need to know that also.

Dear Researchers My understanding of the history of Wilkinson Co. is that it has been around since 1802, having been formed from Adams Co. It would be most helpful to other researchers if when you post a query, you would approximate some dates when your people were there. I personally don't know whether you are writing of 19th century people, 20th century people, or when? Queries should have three elements: Name (of course), place, which we assume is Wilkinson Co., and dates. This last element seems to be missing in many queries. I don't think you will get many answers.

I have a Lydia Shropshire who md. 1st, J. W. Enlow, md. 2nd. John Duncan Ashley & md. 3rd. John T. Anders. Anyone know who her parents where? Virginia

Dear Researcher of IGI and other mass databases, Most of us genealogists are skeptical of mass databases, including IGI and Ancestral File (the latter particularly), some of which give grossly conflicting information. Not only are many of the dates offbase, but also the places. Some of the places named for the event were not even in existence when the stated event occurred! When my Kentucky ancestor was shown on the IGI as fathering new babies at age 90, I got thoroughly disgusted. He did not even live to be 90 years old! Admittedly, he did have 19 children by two wives, but even wives *wear out*. So it was back to the films and abstracted records of the counties in which he lived. Because a genealogical statement is in black and white does NOT make it so. As professionals say, Prove it! Most of us have to go to the better sources--censuses from 1850 on are good, but the older ones should NOT be overlooked. And, of course, censuses give conflicting information, too. One of my great-grandmothers kept getting younger each census. Middle names did not occur very frequently in the early days, although some of my Williamses [not of Wilkinson Co., so don't ask!] had middle names, it seems, to distinguish them from their cousins and other relatives of the same name. For Wilkinson Co. researchers, there are some wonderful records on film, and a few newspaper abstracts have been published which are helpful in establishing dates of death, some marriages etc. To find these records, explore the LDS family history Library catalog on <A HREF="www.familysearch.org">www.familysearch.org</A> The link to the catalog is on the lower right, and just above it is a link to a list of over 3,500 family history centers around the world. Perhaps you can find one near you. I have done a fair amount of Wilkinson Co. research, as my families who were there ca 1815 intermarried with people in Feliciana (before it split) Parish, so it helps to read the records of both jurisdictions. A computerized index of the early marriages has been published long ago, but, again, do not overlook Feliciana Parish, LA and then later you have to check both East and West Feliciana parishes. Do not overlook notarial records in the Parishes. I found some goodies--which linked my families back to their South Carolina origins. I'm afraid this means more work for you--but that is what genealogy is all about. If you hate solving puzzles, this may not be the hobby for you. E.W.Wallace

I was looking for George Perry, Sr and his wife Nancy Rogers. I got these names by reading Sumter county, SC & Wilkinson county, MS wills, deeds, census, tax records, as well as the IGI entry of their son George Perry, Jr, who joined the LDS church a few years before his death. At the time of joining the church you are required to give the names of your parents. I am assuming this man knew the correct names of his parents. Don't you. On three Ancestry webpages these people are listed as George John Charley Perry and Mary Nancy Dancer Rodney. I am wondering how the names originated and what sources where used to produce them. I have tried contacting the people who did the pages but the messages where returned, email address unknown. Virginia

I just found this site and it has lots of good information about the census so I thought I would pass it on. http://www.census.gov/prod/2002pubs/pol02-ma.pdf Floreda

Hi!, I do not know about John Robert Holliday, but I do know Mrs. Davis. Mary Jones married William C. Davis, 1814 in Wilkinson Co, Mississippi. William C. Davis died in 1827. You did not state what year that John and his wife, Mrs . Davis lived in Wilkinson Co, Mississippi. Let me know. Janet
