I don't know why. What is going on???

Hi---why am I getting all of your messages? Sheryl Green

I need a look up for a James William Harshaw GADDIS, he married a Anna Bruce in 1881 and when she died he married a Sarah L. Trulove, when he died he died in Cherokee NC in 1902, Are you able and can you tell me where to go and find the census to see if he was in the state of NC in the 1880's and 1900's? He might have been just called James, His parents was born NC and moved in to Ga. James was born in 1858 according to a census in the 1860's. His parents are Lewis Hubbard Hilliard Gaddis and Sarah Anna Gladden Thanks psueg@bellsouth.net Peggy Sue O'Shields-Gaddis

According to the 1860 census data contained in Cherokee County Heritage, Vol II, the following is a list of Sweeney's: Sweney, James H., 23; Nancy, 32; Rocksanah, 1 Sweney, James, 50; Eliz, 50; Sarah, 18; Hannah, 17; Margaret 12; Jas. H. Franklin, 1

I'm researching a Connelly/Conley family that might have come from Cherokee. My Grandmother is 94 and tells the story that her Grandfather "walked over the mountain" into Fannin County, GA. The only thing I know about John M. Conley is he was born in 1850 in NC and his mother, Elizabeth was living with his family in GA in the 1880 Fannin County census. So his father must have been dead by then. He married Nancy Watkins, who was born in GA. They had 13 children. The male children's names were William Lemuel Conley, John Littleton Conley, And George Washington Conley. Thanks in advance for any and all help. Linda Atkins

I am trying to locate ancestors of Elizabeth M SWEENEY. According to the 1910 TX census, she was born about 1857 in NC. She married William H LEONARD 8/20/1876. According to the 1860 NC census index, there were only two Sweeney households in NC at the time (Elizabeth would have been 3). One of the households was James H SWEENEY in Cherokee county (page 464). Does anyone have the actual census record to see if this is the family of Elizabeth? Thanks for your help. Barry Fox Greenville, SC

Hi, I have not come across a Parker with that name, but I have only got the Parker's back to about 1827/30. Good Luck and keep looking. David Hughes Got a hobby to share or just want a personal home page ? Build your own web site for free at http://www.homestead.com

David, No help from me on your question below. Just thought I'd ask if you had run across any Parkers's with a daughter named Ferby/Feraby/Phoebe? She married Henry Dukes in 1802 in Orange Co. NC and moved to TN around 1825. Just a long shot, you know how we genealogists grasp at any straws!

Have you ever wondered what an estate sale and auction would have been like in SE TN in the 1880s? Are you curious to see the inventory of a farm and a household in neighboring Monroe County, TN in 1888? Did your ancestors attend the sale at the old farmhouse in the nearby mountains, bid on some items, and become listed as buyers? If yes to any of these questions, then this link is FOR YOU! I've just typed and uploaded a new link to my website "Kinfolks in the Knobs." It's "The Inventory and Estate Sale of David and Adeline (Caldwell) Cunningham" from Monroe CO, TN Chancery Court Records of 1888 - 1890. I transcribed it from microfilmed records in 1985. The link may be accessed from the index page by clicking on "The Old Home Places (Surnames A - L);" then from that link, click on David & Adeline (Caldwell) Cunningham. Also, you can simply copy and paste the direct address below into the go box. The URL is http://www.genweb.net/kinfolksintheknobs/cunnestate.html Also, three additional family groups have been added to "The Old Home Places" link. If you can help to decipher any of the illegible words listed, please email me. Hope you'll read with a thimbleful of imagination and enjoy it as much as I do! Sandra Ratledge

thanks for your work

I've finished typing and uploading inscriptions from another Monroe CO, TN cemetery. These are from Rural Vale Cemetery. It's available as a link from the index page on my website called, "Kinfolks in the Knobs." The URL is http://www.genweb.net/kinfolksintheknobs There are lots of connections with folks who lived in Cherokee CO, NC at one time and whose ancestors lived there. Hope you enjoy! Sandra Ratledge

Today, ten additional page links have been uploaded to my website called "Kinfolks in the Knobs." Three links include additional photos. One is the Coltharp School group of 1917 in neighboring Monroe CO, TN. If anyone can provide names of any students in the group, please email me by clicking on the mailbox at the bottom of any page. Photos are available as links from the Photograph Album on the index page. Primary emphasis of the additional family groups is on the Baker, Barnett, Cline, Cunningham, Loftis, Martin, and Roberts families of Monroe, McMinn, and Polk Counties in TN, but these families have ties to Cherokee CO, NC. A number of surnames were added to the Related Surname Index also. The URL is http://www.genweb.net/kinfolksintheknobs More links are coming soon. Hope you enjoy! Sandra

Can anyone on the list tell me where Cheoy Fields, NC is/was? I have lost my notes on this place, and can't find it in any atlas I have at hand. Thanks, Arlene

As a way of celebrating Independence Day and remembering my ancestors, Steve and I surveyed the tombstone inscriptions in Ebenezer Cemetery in Monroe CO, TN. On July 3, I alphabetized, compiled, and prepared a new link for them on my website called "Kinfolks in the Knobs." Today, July 4, I'm happy to let you know that the link is uploaded and available for your research. If anyone can identify or fill in any of the blanks, please email me. The table is available as a link from the index page. The URL is http://www.genweb.net/kinfolksintheknobs Happy Independence Day! Sandra
