Walker Tandy H 30 North Carolina Infantry. Private Private Confederate There are several Tandy Walker's but this is the only one from NC. This is on ancestry but am sure it is listed in NC records. You and order his records from the archives. Wanda Blair Ruby

Hi, I have a picture of my great great grandfathers grave in the Maplewood Cemetery in Durham, NC . On the headstone it simply states TANDY WALKER FAITHFUL CONFEDERATE SOLDIER No dates, nothing else to go by. I have the dates of 08/07/1837 for his birth and 04/22/1907 for his death. Is there any online information that I may find out how he served and where? Christine

Hi, My name is Conniesue and I am new to the Macon County, North Carolina List I am trying to search my Oneal line of which I know virtually nothing of. I do know that my father's patrnal grandmother was LAURA MORGAN ONEAL. She was born in Cowee Township, Macon County, North Carolina in 1860. She lived with her step-father Gilbert Hughes until 1874. She married DAVID ONEAL in 1974 in Loudon County, Tennessee. They had these children: Laura L. Minnie and/or Lizzie William Price or William E.P.(My grandfaher) There is a possibility that they had these children, but it was under the spelling ONEILL that they were found: Maggie James W. David F. David dropped offf the fact of the earth after the marriage. Laura is on the Guion-Miller Roll under Laura Oneal ( which is strange because if a woman is Native Americnan sheusually goes by her maiden name. There is defintely Cherokee in my heritage just not sure what side. I guess she may have used David's name for the children. She is on the 1910 census with PRICE only at the age of 18. --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).

I am interested in Warren County and Halifax Counties, NC Mary Wolfe

Also interested in the Stanly County info. Thanks in advance. Pat Kramer

Thanks so much for asking about Stanly County, Lea. We'll take this opportunity to update all our projects; Granville, Robeson, Stanly, Tyrrell and Warren Counties, North Carolina. All committees are busy proofreading the family articles, and polishing the topics (communities, churches, etc.) and we are shooting for a late fall, or December (worst case) 2002 delivery (subject to unforeseen problems). Please pass the word along. The Granville, Robeson, Stanly, Tyrrell and Warren County books are a reality, but (just like wine) "will not be delivered before their time". We can assure you the books will be worth the wait! Meantime, if you have roots in Mecklenburg or Scotland Counties, NC, you'll be happy to know we are working on those projects! Shoot us an e-mail and we'll get you in touch with these local committees! Be sure and identify which County you want.

ON SALE NOW! A New Book Out On Sampson County, N. C. NINTEENTH CENTURY VITAL STATISTICS OF SAMPSON COUNTY AND DUPLIN COUNTY, N. C., {1796 - 1870}, VOL. 1. This book consists of articles on births, marriages, family reunions, biographies, and deaths out of Fayetteville and Wilmington newspapers. I have researched through many a newspapers for information on Sampson County. I did Duplin County out of respect for it being the parent county of Sampson County. There is so much quailty information in these articles. I typed the articles as they appeared. There is no article abstraction here. It has 244 pages with an index. The price is $30.00. About The Book Newspapers -Name of newspaper, place, date, and volume number. The newspapers had no page numbers. Births - No birth events located. Marriages - Titles are listed in bold print. Articles tells of the bride and groom, giving information on residence, relatives, name of the pastor who performed the ceremony, date and place of wedding. Also there are poems mentioned, as well as some short stories. Some articles, in volume 2, marriages become more detailed in describing weddings and whom the attendants were, along with poems and short stories. Family Reunions - For whom the re-union was for, age, birthdate, and the children if listed. Biographies - For whom the article speaks of, describing the person's life, family, and occupation. Deaths - Titles are listed in bold print. Articles tells of the deceased, where he passed away, of relatives, of what the deceased died from, religious affiliations, and memorials given as a tribute of respect. Some mentions the pastor who attends the funeral. There are many poems and elaborate descriptions of the deceased as giving by family and friends, along with some articles. Titles and Headings - On all articles if there were titles or headings I placed them in bold print. If there were special titles used such as in the Butler Murder, I tried to match the exact fonts or letters as were used to give the exact excitement when it first appeared. Duplicate Entries - There are a few occasions where some entries were similar. In these cases one entry may give more information on people than the other entry, but both entries are given. Unless both are identical and only one entry was entered. Author's Note: These articles I have researched through many a newspapers for information on Sampson County. I did Duplin County out of respect for it being the parent county of Sampson County. I copied the articles as they appeared. There is no abstraction here. There are a few occasions where something was wrong with the paper and a word might not be legible or the paper is too wrinkled to read. I feel like there is too much quality of information in these articles to be abstracted and abstracting them takes the meaning away as they were intended by the various author's who wrote them.
