Researching MAMMIE LEE (STRICKLAND)... LEE Family - of Johnston County, NC in 1900; Sampson County, NC 1880. Several members of this family later settled in Cumberland County, NC after 1900. Anyone out there know of this LEE family or have access to the NC1880 Sampson County NC Census for Westbrook Twp? I have reviewed all of the US Census and WW1 documentation images that are transcribed below, but have no access to the NC census info. I have pasted my research results below... Our family history is that MAMMIE LEE (listed living in household of Sallie A. Lee in US1900 - age 15,) was at LEAST 1/2 Cherokee. Descendants of JESSE LEE, Mammies brother, state that Jesse & Mammies grandparents (maternal???) came from the mountains / reservation. As with many Native American wives / mixed families at the time - they are all listed as "white" in the Census. MAMMIE LEE, listed below, was my Ggrandmother and died in 1903 at 18 yrs of age. I cannot locate her place of burial, and this is all of the research I have on her, after a decade of searching. Her brothers IRA WHITFIELD LEE and JAMES CLAUDE LEE are buried here in Cumberland County at the Old BAREFOOT private cemetary in Western Cumberland County. I located and visited it about a year ago. Her closest brother - JESSE LEE is buried here in West Cumberland County, in the family Cemetary across from the Church he built with his own hands. MAMMIE LEE married GEORGE WILLIAM STRICKLAND, and died after the birth of her only child - my grandfather, WILLIAM BRASCO STRICKLAND.

Looking for the parents of Willard F. Williams born 17 Dec. 1877 and died Dec. 17 1921. He was married to a Westbrook, and they are both buried in the Tart Cem. where 50 and 55 met in Johnston Co. NC. Can anyone help with this line, I have lost all my info on this line. Thanks, Donna

Hi Nina, I have started doing research on the Home Guards and Senior Reserves of the Cape Fear Region. Since he was born as early as 1812 he was probably a member of those companies. I found the Senior Reserve record for my gggg grandfather, which actually gave a physical desciption, and his actual birth date. That was a wonderful find. As to the program, I have a policy of not releasing copies until the night of the program. If you are a member of the Cumberland County Genealogical Society you could probably ask Joyce, the President, to send copies of the handouts to the general membership. As to your Robert, he was not on this list.

Dear Cumberland County Genealogical Society Members: After calling Joyce Adams to make sure I would be going to the correct site Thursday evening, I found out that I was not to be there that night, but rather I was to be with your group this past Tuesday evening. First to everyone, please accept my humble apologies. I did not miss the meeting on purpose. I guess I need to check into Dix Hill for a sabatical, as when I put the Cumberland County meeting down on my appointment calendar, I actually wrote down in my calendar that I would be speaking to your society on Thursday, May 12, 2005. Please - please, except my most humble apologies for this mess up! After talking with Joyce, I have now rescheduled with her to speak to your society on Tuesday, September 13, 2005 at 7:00pm at the museum. I have even put it in my Duke system to send me three notices before that meeting so I will get there on the correct day and time. The title of this program is : CUMBERLAND COUNTY SOLDIERS BURIED ON CONFEDERATE HILL. I already have my programs together, with photos of the tombstones of the Cumberland County Confederate Soldiers that were buried on Confederate Hill. I also have my handouts already made and ready for the September meeting. Of those Cumberland County family names that I have identified in my program are: Arnett, Baker, Beard, Brewer, Elmore, Fowler, Guy, Johnson, King, Marsh, McMillen, Page, Parker, Sanford, Strickland, Wade, and also other men who were identified as being connected to Cumberland County. Thanks you all so much, and again please except my apologies for the missed May Meeting. With kindest regards, Sam West Lumberton, NC

This is to apologize for a e-mail sent last Wednesday to this and other lists sent by my niece but written by me and I never intended it to be sent. Once written, my anger was released and I thought better. However, my niece can go from Lady to the word use for female dog in 4.2 seconds. I did not realize she had sent the message until the next morning. That being say, some good things came form the e-mail. 1. After a discussion with AOL, I now get it for $7.00 less. 2. Many e mails were sent in agreement. 3. The lady who ripped me off has now listed my research as hers on her web site, with the a Mulatto slave as the great grandfather of her husband. She said she did the research herself. 4. She sent to me updated information about her family with birthdays and maiden names of living people. Smart enough to ripped me off, dumb enough to send that information to a total stranger. On the downside after doing genealogical research for thirty-three years and having two articles published in The American Genealogist, I will now quit genealogy. I will leave it to the new breed of Internet Genealogists that have no sense of right or wrong. So no need to unsubscribe me for an apology, I will do that soon myself. Thank You Tonto Bernstein

Thanks to all who emailed me suggestions. It appears I will have to continue using Select, Copy and Pasting to MSWord to make the text wrap to the next line. I was hoping there might be an easier solution, since that is a pain just to read something you don't intend to keep as a permanent download. To those who asked about AOL, I think it used to have a "text wrap" feature under Edit, but it has been some time ago since I used it so I'm not sure. Thanks again to all, and again I apologize for using this forum for a technical problem. Appreciate your patience! Evelyn

Hi List, Can someone give me some tips on re-sizing documents that are too wide for my screen? For instance, the last couple of posts that Myrtle made are wider than my screen and I can't figure out how to get them to wrap or something so that I don't have to arrow over on each line to read the last few words. When I was using AOL this was no problem but now I am on Bellsouth and I can't figure out how to do it. Sorry to use this forum for this type question, but I was hoping someone could help that has the same problem. Thanks in advance, Evelyn

Dear Researchers, The Nevin Ray Letters - A Historical Sketch, 1819-1872 has been contributed by Darryl Black and posted to http://www.rootsweb.com/~nccumber/nevinray.html This collection of family letters does not center around any particular individual, but in so far as they reveal, Nevin Ray was the head of the family. He was a surveyor whose post office was Carthage in Moore County, N.C. Some of the earlier letters give his activities as a surveyor, and some are from relatives who had moved to Georgia, Louisiana and Texas. Nevin Ray had at least four children: Hugh, Malcolm, Flora and Christian. Both Hugh and Malcolm served in the Confederate army. At the beginning of the war, Hugh Ray was stationed at Carolina City, three miles west of Morehead City, N.C. For a time, Malcolm Ray was encamped at Wake County, N.C. Evidently Hugh Ray belonged to the 26th N.C. Regiment in Company H. During the Civil War, these MSS. consist of the correspondence of these four children and their cousins. The war letters are rather good, though they are confined to the first two years of the war. Please visit when you can Myrtle Bridges

Hello Researchers, I have posted the very interesting Darroch, McLean and Clark Family Papers to http://www.rootsweb.com/~ncharnet/darroch.html Visit when you can! Myrtle Bridges

To Cumberland and Robeson Co Researchers: There is a national genealogical society for Black Americans whose national headquarters is located in Washington, D.C. There are also county chapters. Afro-American Historical & Genealogical Society, Inc. Washington, D.C. 20001 202-234-5350 I have no idea what types of information they have, but I'm hoping contact with them will help someone further their research. Elaine in DE

Looking for any information on the Joesph Bird family who moved to Cumberland Co. before 1860 census. Family members were Henry W., Holly Ann, Joab M., Electa, Elizabeth, Francis, and Nancy Bird. They moved from Mont. Co. N.C. where Joesph was listed as a miner in the 1850 census. His father was possibly Benjamin Bird who migrated to Mont. Co. from Wake County in the 1790's. Thanks, Phillip Furr

Looking for any info on Benajah Williams who was born ca. 1803 in NC and married first Elizabeth last name unknown, he married second Sarah Lewis on July 24 1853 in Johnston Co NC. Benajah and Elizabeth had Thomas, Emily, Benjamin B., Narcissa, Augustus, Phineas, Arutus, James, Pinkney p., and William. Most of the children were married in Wayne Co. Would love to exchange what little info I have on this family. Thanks, Donna

Anyone have Emmett Kinlaw in their tree? Bob Butler

There were definitely Scots-Irish immigrants/settlers in these counties, as there were in all the piedmont counties of North Carolina. But there were most definitely large contingents of pure old unadulterated Scots directly from Scotland.
