Jack, I could say thank you for reminding us the Carr family is such a mess in our notes but think I would just as soon not have been reminded. Most of these notes were done before computers and certainly before softwear and many of my notes are still in notebooks and so are Ruth's notes. I can't find anything and know there is Holloway information buried in the many files. Ruth, how about a spring project? I need to finish up the Taylors first. Is anyone else working the Carrs other than Ruth and new member Jack? Jack, you almost need to wait until we wade through all this information and see what shakes out. Ruth has the Titus line and mine is his brother Matthew but I can only PROVE back to Lawrence assumed son of Matthew. Both Titus and Matthew had children and grandchildren with the same names which is such great fun trying to sort them. Martha
This is in violation of my own rules but every rule has an exception. I did eliminate the paragraph on the survivors. We have permission from the Daily Reflector to use anything genealogical in nature and I consider this genealogical in nature. The obit did not appear in the online Free Press today. Daily Reflector Ima Mewborn FARMVILLE - Ima Eula Mewborn, 89, passed away on the 5th day of February, 2002, after a period of declining health. A memorial service will be held Friday at 11 a.m. from the Farmville Presbyterian Church. The family will receive friends at the church after The memorial service. A private interment will be held prior to the memorial service at Forest Hills Cemetery in Farmville. She was born May 30, 1912, at Nehucky Farm, Bullhead Township, in Greene County, the second child of George Lemuel Mewborn and Eula Virginia Mewborn. She was preceded in death by her brother, Dr. John Moses Mewborn and wife Margaret McNeill Mewborn; brother-in-law, Varner Rayford Garner; brothers, Henry Drew Mewborn, Quentin Alexander Mewborn and Marvin Bruce Mewborn; and sister, Manora Mewborn Nunn and husband Malcolm Dee Nunn. After graduation from Snow Hill High School in 1929, Miss Mewborn attended East Carolina Teachers College, today East Carolina University, and graduated in 1933. She enjoyed a long career as a nurse associated with the family practice of her brother, Dr. John Mewborn, taking particular pride in helping Dr. Mewborn to deliver many healthy babies in the Farmville community and surrounding area. Miss Mewborn was also a talented needle artist, sharing examples of her beautiful needlepoint and crochet work with her relatives and friends. Miss Mewborn enjoyed a lifetime interest in genealogy and local history. In her retirement, she and her sister, Ailine Mewborn, traveled widely researching family lines, relished a lively correspondence with genealogists throughout the nation, and often welcomed friends to their Farmville home to share the fruits of their research. Miss Mewborn was an active member of a number of genealogical and historical societies, including Daughters of the American Revolution, Daughters of American Colonists, Colonial Dames of Seventeenth Century, Jamestown Society, Magna Carta Dames, Eastern North Carolina Genealogical Society, Old Dobbs Society and many others. She served many years as registrar for her chapters of DAR and DAC. Ima and Ailine Mewborn were also early benefactors of Heritage Place at the Learning Resources Center of Lenoir Community College, contributing time, print resources and funds to the establishment of the premier genealogical collection in eastern North Carolina. In 1999, she donated her collection of personal papers and research, "These Are My People," to Heritage Place. In lieu of flowers, contributions may be made to Heritage Place, Learning Resources Center, Lenoir Community College, Kinston, N.C. 28501 or to Farmville Presbyterian Church, 310 Grimmersburg St., Farmville, N.C. 27828.
Ruth, Regarding the identity of Priscilla Carr's first husband, a Holliday, I might throw in one clue. The 1841 Lowndes County MS deed from Allen Carr to Priscilla Cart Holliday Jordan that referred to the 1835 Greene County legal instrument by Priscilla's father Titus Carr was for a parcel of land in Section 14, Township 17, Range 6 East. Looking at a map of land ownership in the area for 1840 indicates that a Thomas Holliday owned Section 11, to the north of and contiguous to the parcel in Section 14. I certainly couldn't say for sure that Thomas Holliday was Priscilla's first husband, but the proximity is suggestive.

Guy just fussed at me. For our new members - the Old Dobbers link is http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~paday/dobbers/index.htm Pictures are on Industrial Issue of the Free Press. Martha
Guy has posted some new Free Press Industrial Issue pictures on Old Dobbers. Mailed him the last group today but not sure what he is missing. This was his first project and many thanks to Tracy for her help. Thanks, Guy. Martha

I just received this message from Heritage Place as well as from Tracy who was there when Aileen called. Tracy thinks she passed away this morning. Most of you know of Ima, some of you don't. She was considered one of the finest genealogists in Eastern NC and my mentor. She had 72 2 inch notebooks on just the Mewborn family and many more on the Hardy, Sugg, Dixon, and so many other families. Eventually all of her notebooks will be placed at Heritage Place. We are all richer for knowing her and certainly more knowledgeable about our families. I don't know what the family will designate for memorials, but a book for Hertiage Place would certainly be in order. Our thoughts and prayers are with her family, but Ima has been ready for two years since her mind started to go so she is finally at peace. Would someone please notify the Wayne County List. Martha Martha, Ailine just called to let us know about Ima. The graveside service will be Friday at 10:00 and then visitation at the Presbyterian Church in Farmville. That's all we know. Ailine wasn't sure what she died of, she said she was running a fever and was in the hospital again. We never heard her speak of Ima being in the hospital before but then we didn't ask so we wouldn't upset Ailine. Let us know if there is anything we can do. Ranita
Hi I apologize in advance if you receive duplicates of this as I am posting this on the Lenoir, Greene and Pitt County lists. I am researching the following surnames in Lenoir, Greene, and Pitt Counties: Baker, Parker, Powell/Hill Abe Baker married Susan Catherine Powell in Greene County, NC 1879 I have not been able to find out much about Abe except that his name was unique and may have be spelt Abidalli, Abadiah, Abdolie, Abeball. He however always went by Abe. Abe and Susan Baker children include: Grover "Cleveland", Joseph "Joe", Florence, Estella M.(adopted) Elijah Parker married 1st to Allie Cobb in Pitt Co. their children: Sue Parker Addie Parker Elijah Parker "was a Pastor" married 2nd Mary Jane Evans in Pitt Co., NC but later moved to Lenoir County as my grandmother Loty Parker was born there other children include: Frank, Lucy, Lunicy Ann, Della "Nannie", Fanny S., John Eddie, then my grandmother Loty Anna (she was the youngest of the family b. August 26, 1897) I believe that Susan Catherine Powell birth father may have been Benajah Hill, however he died when she was young. She and her mother and young sisters were found later with William Powell (I believe the mother married William Powell) her brothers were with other families. Susan than carried the Powell name thereafter she may be either listed with Hill's or Powell's. Do any of these names look familiar? Rose Thomas
Does anyone know if Burwell Pope, son of Henry Pope was Pitt, Greene or maybe Edgecombe. He was born 1752 and married Priscilla Wooten in 1772. Think they died in Oglethorpe Co, Ga. Martha
I did one Westbrook Bible Record for Greene Co. a couple years ago and although connected may not include all Jack has. What I did was just on the Burwell Westbrook family and the ones who went to MS. Jack I do have some other Westbook material. My Uzzell family intermarried with them in several places.

If you would type it up in text format would appreciate it - including the later generations. We will post on one and link to the other county. THere are also Westbrooks in Jones Co connected to the Stanley family. As I recall the Westbrooks lived right on the Greene/Lenoir Border. Seems like there is one tombstone on one of the cemetery records posted but don't remember which county - it was right on the line. Thanks.

Guy is new on both lists. > > A special welcome to cousin Jack - I know who he is and he is on both > lists. He has numerous Greene and Lenoir families Thanks Martha (who is apparently related to me along multiple lines) Briefly, I live in Clay County, MS (located in the NE part of the state, county seat West Point), which was organized in 1872 from components taken from Chickasaw, Lowndes, Monroe, and Oktibbeha Counties. My family on both sides, including multiple lines has resided here since the 1830s and '40s, when the area was first opened to settlement. Several of my lines that settled here about this time came from the Greene and Lenoir County areas. They appear to have been rather intermarried before they came to Mississippi and continued to intermarry after they arrived. Although I've been able to establish their interconnectedness fairly well after they arrive in MS, yet the connectedness before they arrive is not always so clear. It's somewhat like seeing the branches of the top of a tree, knowing that they connect beneath, yet being unable to see below where they converge at the trunk. I will provide a brief summary of these families in the hopes that someone came help illuminate the early pre-Mississippi connections. The names concerned here are primarily Carr, Exum, Hardy, Jordan, and Westbrook. I might note that the Hardys are much better researched than the others (at least to the degree that they relate to my direct lines). Benjamin H. EXUM (1811-1892) b. in NC, probably Greene County the son of Jesse Exum and Amy JORDAN Exum. It was apparently this Amy Exum, who being widowed was listed in the 1817 tax roll of Greene County in Henry Westbrook's district. Benjamin Exum married Sara Ann "Sallie" WESTBROOK (ca. 1815-1890), who might have been the daughter of Henry Westbrook. Among the children of Benjamin and Sarah Exum were: (1) TITUS CARR Exum (ca. 1842 - 1905) whose name suggests a relationship to the Carrs of Greene County, Titus Carr being a very commonly used name in those descended from that family. (2) Priscilla Exum, my g-g-grandmother, who married in 1871 in MS to William HARDY, a grandson of Sutton Hardy of the part of Dobbs County NC that became Greene County There were also a number of Westbrooks and Jordans that settled in the Clay County area around West Point (this portion of Clay was originally Lowndes County). This included a very large groups of Westbrooks, including Charles Westbrook of Lenoir County NC who died in 1843 in Lowndes County, MS. near West Point. Among his several children was apparently a Henry who might have been the Henry listed above in the 1816 Greene County tax roll. Among Charles's children that came to the West Point area were: (1) Lemuel (2) Julia, married Moses Charles Westbrook, presumably a cousin (3) Moses, married Sidney Ann CARR, one of their sons was named TITUS CARR WESTBROOK. After Moses died in 1854, his widow Sidney Ann who was a Carr by birth, remarried to Lewis Whitfield Carr (4) Eliza, married in 1843 to Moses JORDAN, bringing in yet another interconnectedness, between Jordans and Westbrooks. Moses Jordan perhaps more than anyone can be considered to be the founder of West Point by virtue of having his land subdivided into the blocks and streets that formed the original nucleus of the town. Moses Jordan was one of three brothers who settled in the West Point, MS area. The others are William and Charles R. William married Priscilla Carr, a daughter of Titus Carr of Greene County, NC. Her first marriage was to a Holliday. (In reference to this see the addition to the Greene County website under "deeds.") William and Priscilla Carr had several children among whom was Elizabeth "Bettie" Jordan who initially married Charles Y. Westbrook, the son of Lemuel Westbrook. After Charles's death in 1861, she married Titus Carr Exum (see above) who was probably her cousin through both the Jordan and Carr lines. One of their sons, Clarence Exum, married his multiply related cousin Miss Claude Jordan, the daughter of his mother's first cousin William J. Jordan who was the son of Charles R. Jordan.

Got to hit forward otherwise I am the only one to get the information. I don't know if Ima's Mooring information has made it to LCC yet but she has an entire notebook on the Mooring family. There is a Carraway Collection at LCC. Only took a quick look at it before it was catelogued. Looked well researched. Several Baker researchers on the list as well as PCFR. I am interested in the Grizzard family because they intermarried into my Kilpatrick family. Alexander Kilpatrick appears to have had a daughter to marry a Grizzard and I have not been able to find out anything on them. Betty, your research abilities preceed you. Several people have told me about you - a special WELCOME.

He has numerous Greene and Lenoir families and sent us a great file for Greene Co from Mississippi that refers back to Greene. He found list member Ruth F and we went from there and are still going. Would our new members post to the respective lists the families they are researching? Know of the Dunns, Potts, Hardys, Carrs, Exum, Holliday, Jordan, etc. Welcome to all of you. The Greene list has been especially active lately with new posts. Martha
