I recently posted a query on William and Pernina Buce. I want to thank everyone who responded. It was just great! We did establish that Elizabeth Standridge was indeed Elizabeth Buce, but in Haywood County where they were before Cherokee County, the name was evidently spelled Buice. Also Pernina's name was Hall instead of Samson, so I'm looking for info on her family. She was born 1798/1800 in Sampson County. And also any info on Mahaly Burns, (William & Pernina's daughter). She was living with them on the 1860 census and looks like she has a 1 year old, Henry and she was still with them on the 1870 census with Henry, 11 and Andy, 8. And last, William & Pernina's son William R. Buce (which is the link this family goes back to).Looking for info on his spouse, Nancy Newton. She was born in NC in 1842 and her parents were Samuel, born in 1814 in NC and Sarah, born in 1813 in NC. William R & Nancy had 10 children born in NC. I know the oldest, Charles Marion Buce was born in Cherokee County in 1863. Again thanks to everyone. This is a great site. Lillian
