Donna: Do you have any information on David Lenoir's brother, Ervin Carpenter. He is my husband's direct ancestor and had two children that I know of: Mary Jane and Todd. I have not been able to find a word about him after 1860 so I have no idea who he married. I believe she could have been Native American. He just drops off the face of the earth - perhaps in the Civil War. Audrey
I just had a message returned after 4 days saying the address must be wrong. Audrey

Hi Everyone, While I was at the Avery County Heritage Fest, I bought the Chamber of Commerce Map of Avery County. I contacted them and obtained permission to use the map on our Web page: http://www.rootsweb.com/~ncavery/averymap.htm This is a large file (269 KB). I tried making it smaller, but detail was lost at the smaller resolution. The search engines for Avery County information have been updated: http://www.rootsweb.com/~ncavery/websearch.html Keep well. Mike
Hi Everyone, You may have seen that the former GenConnect Boards have been combined with the FamilyHistory.com Message Boards. This reduces the number of boards for Avery County from eight to one. By having just one Message Board, it should be easier to find queries, and to post your own genealogical question related to Avery County. The URL for the new Message Board is: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec?htx=admin.board&r=rw&p=localities.united-20-states.states.north-20-carolina.counties.avery The change has been posted on the Avery County NCGenWeb Page: http://www.rootsweb.com/~ncavery/ Mike County Coordinator, Avery County NCGenWeb
Hi Everyone, We just got back from our trip down to North Carolina and Tennessee, and were able to take in the Heritage Fest. Newland was blessed with a beautiful sunny day on the day of the Fest, although the wind was a little fresh on occasions. Some of the exhibitors might think "fresh" is an inappropriate description of the wind, as they frequently had to chase down their pictures and papers. The atmosphere among those attending was most cordial, and lots of information was being swapped at all of the tents. It was good to see my Tolley and Trivett cousins again, and make new acquaintances. There were not many new things to photograph, so only four pictures to show for the visit: http://www.rootsweb.com/~ncavery/photos/heritagefest/heritage3.htm If you have not been able to attend one of the Heritage Fests, try real hard to be there next year. Mike

For awhile, I was afraid that prior commitments were going to keep me away from this year's Heritage Fest. Things have worked out so that I can attend. Sure would hated to have missed this. Anyone else going? If so, hope to see you there. See info at: http://www.geocities.com/averyheritagefest/upcoming.html If you do get by Newland this year, be sure to stop and visit the Museum. The display on local singer/movie star/politician Lulu Belle and her husband Scotty Stoneman continues this year. This is a very well researched and well done display. Plus, the museum has all of their genealogical publications there for browsing and purchasing. Mike
