    2. Delores Tousinau
    3. I am researching Henry McCullough and Helen Houston. I think that Henry was first in NC about 1736. I show Helen Houston's parents as William Houston and Ann Jones and I am trying to verify that this information is correct. Any help would be appreciated. Delores

    1. [NCGen] A Gen Poem for Mothers Day
    2. sarah rose
    3. This is my gift to all of you for Mothers Day. My poetry has been published in 44 states (so far) and in the UK and Canada. This is one of my favorites. I hope you enjoy it. Sarah MY ANCESTOR GRAND MOTHER I search for you yet do not even know your name I press on praying my efforts will prove fruitful the records do not list you or the other women who have lived and loved and laughed, gave birth, and died, the records perpetrate the myth that you were never here but I stand whole and bare my soul and vow to find you as I live I search for you in old records, in churches, at the Embassy, in small dimly lit rooms in the back of obscure libraries and archives and pour over barely readable handwritten ledgers with magnifying glass and flashlight I live on mainly toast these days there isn't time for meals or much sleep feeling as I always do, on the very brink of discovery Perhaps THIS will be the day I find the one seemingly insignificant clue, which will lead me to you although I did not find you listed in the Census Records I am not deterred, you may turn up yet, on an Immigration or Naturalization list somewhere perhaps, or maybe tucked away inside some bank of vital statistics, long forgotten like so many others, your name having become lost over the long years Your name could be lying even now amidst the millions of documents stored and locked away safeguarded in the bowels of a giant warehouse all stopped up from apathetic crowds who have long ceased their visits your precious name, lying just inside a myriad of records packed in tight, packed in to stay never guessing I would come @Sarah Elizabeth Rose

    1. [NCGen] USGenWeb Project bylaws proposals
    2. The State of Nevada is sponsoring the 26 BYLAWS changes discussed and developed by the USGW membership on USGenWeb-ALL -L. These changes are NOT the same as the ones being discussd by the bylaws committee. I have coordinated this grass-roots effort to improve the structure of the USGenWeb Project. I and the those who have contributed have worked over a month in fine tuning these proposals. In order for the MEMBERS to have a chance to look these over and decide if these are what they want, ie: VOTE, we need the support of several other states to co-sponsor the submitted proposals. Visit the proposed USGW Project bylaws at: http://www.rootsweb.com/~nvchurch/proposedbylawschanges.htm Thank you for your time and consideration. Jeffery G.

    3. Dear Debbie, I have a "North Carolina Gazetteer" a dictionary of Tarheel places. We are the Tarheel State. I'm sorry to say that I don't find Turbush Creek in the book. If you are reading the writing in cursive style it is very easy to make an error. If you want me to look up a different spelling, I will be glad to do so. Do you have any idea what part of the State Turbush Creek is in ? Joan Johnson Debbie Pentecost-McNabb wrote: > I am new to the list and am wondering if anyone has a very old map of North > Carolina.
