ClaudineP: Greetings! Would you have any information on a Charlton H. Ragan - probably from South Carolina (he served in the 25th South Carolina Infantry during the Civil War). On March 9, 1863, he transferred from the 25th SC to Company K, 37th North Carolina Infantry, as a 2nd Lieutenant. Company K was made up of men from the Ashe - Allegheny County area so I though he might have had relations there. Lt. Ragan was killed at Chancellorsville. I am also looking for information on the Ragan's from Gaston County that served in Company H of the 37th: Jasper Ragan and Robert F. Ragan. Thanks! Your servant, Michael C. Hardy Researching 37th North Carolina Troops http://www.geocities.com/nc37th/ Watauga County, NC http://www.geocities.com/cw_watauga/ ----Original Message Follows---- From: ClaudineP@aol.com Reply-To: NCASHE-L@rootsweb.com To: NCASHE-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [NCASHE] Early Ashe History - RAGON Date: Sat, 16 Sep 2000 17:19:03 EDT Hello List, I am looking specifically for information on Eli RAGON, b. abt 1766 - d. abt 1808 in Ashe Co., NC.

Hello Allene, Good to hear from you again. I don't have anything new on the Ragons but when I saw the book being discussed on this list I thought it might help to put out some feelers. So far, no results. Keep in touch. Claudine

Hi, Claudine, I'm sure you have all the info. I have, already. Hope you get some good info. Let me know if you get anything I don't already have. Thanks. Allene Petree Kernier@aol.com

In case anyone is interested, AncientFaces ( http://www.ancientfaces.com ) has just added a "mystery photos" section. You can submit those pictures of kin that have remained unidentified in your family for years-and maybe someone will recognize them and email you! Pretty cool. I'm adding several! Pam Marks

Dear Folks: I've been reading your messages and replies and hoping that maybe someone would come up with some Grubb information.... My ggrandfather William Grubb b. 1804, married Rosannah West in Ashe County, Jan. 8, 1934... I am searching for Wm's parents and wondered if any older Grubbs may have been mentioned. Thank You.
