There is a possibility that she was buried at a cemetery associated with the Andrews Presbyterian Church. Charlotte Unmarked graves are not included in the listings. She could be in and unmarked grave in the cemetery. Unmarked graves are not listed as no ones knows who is in them. I have the same problem with some of my people. I know which cemeteries they are buried in But they are buried in unmarked graves. Bob

I there anyone who lives near the Cherokee Co. county seat who would be willing to look up some census information for me? The two families I need are: 1) John Barker 2) Clinton Hudson According to GenealogyLibrary.com they are listed this way: 1870 NC Census Index Barker, John NC CHEROKEE CO. CHEOAH TWP 260 1870 Hudson, Clinton NC CHEROKEE CO. CHEOAH TWP 268 1870 Thanks so much... Charlotte in Michigan

I need to find the burial site of Martha Ann Hudson BARKER (born 1834 - died 31 Mar 1925). There is a possibility that she was buried at a cemetery associated with the Andrews Presbyterian Church. Martha's husband, John BARKER (1824-1884), is buried in the Barker Cemetery in Graham Co., NC. Martha is not among those listed at that site. I have checked all the cemetery listings at the Cherokee Co. USGenWeb site and could not find Martha A. Barker in any of those cemeteries. Does anyone have a reference book of cemetery listings in Cherokee Co. who could check for me ... or does anyone know the name of a cemetery with an association with the Andrews Presbyterian Church? Charlotte in Michigan

Hello, Anyone know which Cherokee Co. Shields family Theodore "Ted" Shields was from? He married Leila Arp b. 14 Feb 1896. They moved to Akron, Ohio after they were married. Thanks, Brian Lord

Hi All -- With many thanks to Kathy Ellis, I'm able to announce that the Cherokee County site now has the 1890 Veterans Census listing on it. http://www.goldenbranches.com/nc-state/cherokee Thanks Diane

Hi, Forget if I wrote this list to let you know that I found out from pension records that Wiley and Catherine Ramsey SHEARER moved to McMinn County in 1868, so they would not be in the 1870 or 1880 Cherokee Co Census records. Thanks. Mitzi

Does a transcription of the 1870 census of Cherokee Co., NC exist? According to GenealogyLibrary.com, my ancestors are listed in Cheoah Twp. I need to find the family information listed with these men: 1870 NC Census Index Barker, John NC CHEROKEE CO. CHEOAH TWP 260 1870 Hudson, Clinton NC CHEROKEE CO. CHEOAH TWP 268 1870 Thanks so much... Charlotte

Yes Patty, there is a Liberty Baptist Church and I do know that there are minutes because I heard that someone looked thru them. Wish there was a printed copy or at least someone to do lookups. But that would be so hard in something that is not indexed. Perhaps there is a researcher around that would be willing to do that for you. There is a page there I would like to have too.

Does anyone know if there is/was a Liberty Baptist Church in Cherokee co. NC? If there is a Liberty Baptist Church, does anyone have the church minutes? Thanks, Patty Brock

Light Impressions has an 800 no. - 1-800-828-6216. You can have a catalog sent to you. I order my photo pages from them. Their materials are professional quality. Not very fast shippers though. Lynda

Hi again, everyone -- I've had so many requests for the Exposures catalog info, I'm going to check with the listowners and see if it's okay to post it. Listowners, if you read this, please let me know if it's okay. If not, ya'll be patient -- I'll get back to you with the information. Meanwhile, Barbara Armstrong from the TN Hawkins mail list forwarded an on-line source for ordering archival quality scrapbook materials. The URL is: www.lightimpressionsdirect.com. I checked it out briefly, and it looks pretty good, although the acid-free pens seem a little pricey. However, you can't order them through the catalog I mentioned, and if your local art supply can't order them for you, then this is probably your best option. Judy

Hi all -- The subject of "genealogy scrapbooks" has come up on another list that I'm on. It occured to me that my two cents worth to the Macon Co. list might also prove helpful to others starting genealogy scrapbooks. I'm sure some of you will get this several times, and apologies for that -- I'm just doing my best to protect old photos, letters, clippings, etc. I started a genealogy scrapbook about six months ago, and did a good bit of research, to be sure that the photos, documents, etc. would be protected, and actually last for more generations. My brother-in-law, who is a museum curator, was a big help! I'd like to pass along what I learned, so that anyone else doing a genealogy scrapbook has something that will truly last through the generations. 1) Identifying the pictures. Photos should be identified on the back, and on the pages of the scrapbook. Reason: If the photo for some reason becomes "detached", the ancestors can still be identified. If the wrong type of ink is used, you could have problems. Many inks will fade, smear, or bleed over time. Worst-case scenario, is that the ink bleeds through from the back of the photograph onto the front of the photograph, thereby ruining your picture.The solution is to use a waterproof, acid-free, fade-proof and non-bleeding ink. It should conform to ASTM D-4236 standards. (It should say this on the pen). I found one called a Zig Writer, that cost about $2.50. There are other, more expensive types, and others about the same price, but look for the keywords mentioned above. 2) What if you already have old photos with questionable ink on the back, or old letters, newspaper clippings, etc. that are fading, in bad shape, and likely to get worse? There's a product called Archival Mist -- it's expensive, but worth it to protect your old memorabilia. Essentially, it neutralizes the non-acid free papers and stops the deterioration process. It won't restore them, but it will keep them from getting worse!! There might be other such products, but this is the only one that I'm aware of. 3) Be sure that the pages in your scrapbook are acid-free. Storage in any sort of a non-acid free "medium", (eg., box, plastic bags, scrapbook, etc.) not only will NOT protect old photos, clippings, etc. (or new ones!!), but will speed their deterioration. 4) Attach the photos with acid-free corners and archival quality (meaning acid-free) glue. Use a glue that will allow for easy removal in the future. (E.g., what if great-grandaughter Susie Creamcheese wants to make copies of great-grandma's photo for her children?) This way, you don't have to destroy the scrapbook to remove an item for copying, etc. 5) What if there is evidence of "bug damage", mold, mildew, etc? This is simple -- you freeze the item!! Yep, put it in your freezer for 24 hours, then remove it for 24 hours. Then, put it back in again for 24 hours -- this gets rid of any eggs, etc. that might have been missed the first time around. I'd threaten murder and mayhem to any family member opening the freezer, for any purpose, while the item is there -- all you need is for someone to spill an ice tray full of water all over grandpa's love letters to grandma. I've typically put items in plastic bags for freezing -- I'm not sure that my brother-in-law would approve, but it DOES protect the item immediately, and it's not long-term. Use your own judgement. Word of warning-- once frozen, many old papers will be extremely fragile -- they can actually shatter, if dropped. You want to remove them carefully, take them out of the plastic bag (you don't want 'em getting soggy!) and place them in a safe, out-of-the way place until "thawed". This usually doesn't take too long. 6) Where can you get these products? The pens and archival glue are available from any good art supply store. I've only seen the archival mist available through a catalog that I get. And, the acid-free scrapbooks, etc. proved problematic. The best source that I found is a catalog called Exposures. Lest it be considered advertising, I won't give the particulars here. If anyone is interested, email me and I'll tell you how to contact them. You might also check with your local museum, to see what suggestions they have. As I mentioned, my brother-in-law was a gold mine!!! Hope you all have wonderful scrapbooks!! Judy

Hi, Does anyone have information on Polly McEntire [Cherokee name unknown] who married Josiah Prince. Josiah and wife lived in McMinn/Monroe Co in 1830 and Polk County in 1840 according to those census records. [Josiah & Polly were my grandfather's mother's grandparents.] According to an application I have, Polly McEntire's mother's maiden name was Linch/Lynch and she married a McEntire. According to this application the McEntires and Linches were removed during the Cherokee removal. The application lists Polly's Indian name or tribe, but the xeroxed copy is so dark that I cannot read it. I'd appreciate any help or direction on how to find out more information on the Polly, her parents or grandparents. Thank you! Mitzi

A good place for looking at census records would be http://www.census-online.com (or www.online-census.com , i get it mixed up everytime, but it is one of the two). It takes a while for the pages to load, but they have census records, some tax lists and rent lists. Might be a good place to start, for looking at census records. I have found it evry useful.

Dear List, I have a place to start and that is a name. My GGGrandmother's name was Angeline Tudor she was born in October 1854. She married a Phillip Malone and they had 10 children together. I was wondering if anyone out there has the census records for 1860 listing Angeline Tudor and her family. Interested in her Parents and any siblings. All I have on her is her name and that she lived in McMinn County, Tennessee with my GGGrandfather Phillip Malone. She is buried in Malone Family Cemetery in Athens, Tennessee. Someone out there knows her. I hope we can chat. I have lots to share, and would love to here from you. Need some clue's Angela Davis Cifaldi Cifaldi@mediaone.net

Correction. That should have been GILREATH ' and not GILBRETH. Sorry JERRY

1850 census for Cherokee Co has GILBRETH (1)Lorenzo 34 (2)Nancy, 29. They did not reappear in the 1860 census. JERRY
