Several years ago, the Drum-Wilkinson Clan based in Catawba County authorized the publishing and distribution of a 2-volume family history entitled, "The Drum-Wilkinson Families." A supplement to that publication has recently been published which contains additional information as well as corrections to the 2-volume set. Should anyone be interested in either of these genealogy resources, please contact me direct for more information. Betty

PRESS RELEASE We would like to remind you of this upcoming event. Conover Memorial Service Date: Saturday, 23 October 2004 Time: 2PM <http://www.rootsweb.com/~nccatawm/WmSDeal.htm>http://www.rootsweb.com/~nccatawm/WmSDeal.htm Confederate soldier William Silas Deal, a native of Catawba County, will be remembered with a memorial marker and ceremony at the St. John's Lutheran Church cemetery in Conover NC. Nearly 140 years ago, Deal, who was a member of St. John's, enlisted with the NC troops during the War for Southern Independence. He was 40 years old, well past the age of required military service. Deal fought for the Confederacy and was captured at the Battle of Hatcher's Run in Virginia. He died of disease at Point Lookout (MD) prison, seven weeks after the war ended. According to local historian and genealogist Derick Hartshorn, Deal's body is buried in an unmarked grave at Point Lookout. Attending the ceremony will be the color guard of C.F. Connor Camp #849 of the Sons of Confederate Veterans, as well as re-enactors from neighboring camps. Members of the United Daughters of the Confederacy and the Order of the Confederate Rose will attend in period costumes. The Rev. Scott Johnson of St. Johns will give the invocation, and the color guard will present a rifle salute. Descendants of William Silas Deal, as well as special guests, are expected from across the country. The public is invited. The church is located at 2126 St Johns Chrch Road NE, off NC Highway 16 north of Conover. For further details or directions, please call the church at (828) 464-4071 Tell a friend about NCSouth.

Debbie - many of the Deal's from Newton NC also settled into what's known as the 'Great Copper Basin'... They were closely intertwined with my Hyde's - one of them even dwelled with one of my ancestors in order to work in the copper mines. The cemeteries in Polk Co TN, Fannin/Rabun/Gilmer Co. GA, and Western NC's all have Deal's in them... From Catawba Co NC, I descend from the Sherrill's. My Susannah Sherrill married James Barnes and they're buried in Cherokee Co NC in the community of Bear Paw. Their descendants settled in Polk Co TN (Grassy Creek community) where many Deal's were.

Surnames: Corpening, Yoder Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/SSB.2ACE/2163.1.2.1.1 Message Board Post: Kris, I received the 2 obits that you sent me regarding my great-grandparents, Homer B. Corpening and Hattie Yoder Corpening. It was so very helpful:) Is there any way that you could look up obits for Eugenia Miller Corpening and Albert M. Corpening? They were my great-grandfather's parents. I do not have any information, and my searches have proven fruitless..how do you obtain your information? I thank you so much for your time and effort.

Folks, I'm delighted to provide an article on the Rev. Jacob C. Clapp, D.D. His beautiful eulogy is presented by the Reformed Church Standard, Newton, NC July 15, 1910; Vol. XVIII, No 9; pg. 1-4 A special thanks to Vivian Abernathy who did all the leg work (but none of the belfry climbing). I might add, this is being presented on the Conover Web Page since this was Rev. Clapp's last home. http://www.rootsweb.com/~nccconov/RevJCClapp.htm Regards, --Derick
