Diana, I couldn't agree more and I recommend that folks obtain a personal email name and address from some vendor like iMail or the like. Then, if you want to change your ISP you don't have to change your address because you own it. As an example, my address is dick@therapist.net and I chose it because I am a psychotherapist. I have changed ISP's twice since I got the address. You can follow an individual address back to the vendor by simply typing www.therapist.net where anyone can obtain an address. Regards, Dick Hudson

I have been driven crazy by returned mail from GenForum. These researchers have put their queries in with their email addresses, then they change servers--some just three or four months ago! The US Mail is fairily easy to change addresses, but on the internet there isn't a way to follow these people. PLEASE think twice (or three times) before changing your email address. Mine is all over the the internet and I will go to my grave before I change it! ----- Original Message ----- From: Mail Delivery Subsystem <MAILER-DAEMON@aol.com> To: <ddavis@logicsouth.com> Sent: Wednesday, March 31, 1999 6:07 PM Subject: Returned mail: User unknown > The original message was received at Wed, 31 Mar 1999 18:07:22 -0500 (EST) > from mx.logicsouth.com [206.153.8.10] > > > *** ATTENTION *** > > Your e-mail is being returned to you because there was a problem with its > delivery.

Greetings from beautiful Austin, TX. The DONNELLs went to the Guilford Co area around 1750-1760 from the York, PA area where they had lived for a time after coming from northern Ireland. The first to come were Thomas Donnell, his brother Robert and their nephew Robert II (Robin). They came with the help of the Nottingham Society, a Presbyterian Church organization (suggested that it was the Nottinghan congregation, but I don't know where). The lands they acquired were part of the grants to Lord Granville. It helps if you can access either of two books by the Rev. Samuel Rankin. One is a history of the Buffalo Creek Presbyterian Church, the other a genealogy of the Rankin and Donnell families. I have seen the latter book at the St. Louis Public Lib'y genealogy room. I have never seen a copy of the former. perhaps you will have better luck than I!! Also, try reaching the Guilford Co Genealogical Society. There is a Raymond Donnell who has a great deal of info plus other researcher on that time period. I have some info on the Robin Donnell branch, through his son Daniel, Sr. and grandson, Daniel, Jr. Best wishes, Louise Donnell _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

I found the following in The Guilford Genealogist, Vol. 26, No. 1 Winter 1999 Issue No. 84 in an article titled Pennsylvania Records of Some Early Guilford Settlers by Donald R. Simpson, page 39, "The 1768 Thomas Donnell tax list for that part of Rowan County that later was Guilford County includes Henry Work, James Work, John Work, Francis McBride, Samuel Maxwell and Francis Maxwell." The article doesn't include any more information about Thomas Donnell but I believe I've seen that name associated with the Buffalo Church Community in Guilford County. -Nona nona@rof.com <mailto:nona@rof.com>   http://www.rof.com/gene <http://www.rof.com/gene> (web site) Nona Williams PO Box 3793 Santa Cruz, CA 95063 >-----Original Message----- >From: John R Vermeer [mailto:johnve@juno.com] >Sent: Tuesday, March 30, 1999 10:04 AM >To: NCROCKHA-L@rootsweb.com >Subject: [NCROCKHA-L] DONNEL In NC > > >Hello, > >It appears that there may have been a few DONNEL families in NC during >the timeframe 1760-1830.

Hello, It appears that there may have been a few DONNEL families in NC during the timeframe 1760-1830. I've see a reference to a John DONNEL of Guilford Co as a soldier in the War Of 1812. I am searching for the parents of a John Mabry DONNEL who was born around 1801. We believe that he was born in Tennessee, but we also know that his family came there from the East, NC being a strong possibility. Does anyone know anything about the North Carolina DONNELs? How about the origin of the DONNEL surname? My wife is a DONNEL from the John Mabry DONNEL line.

Edward, James/John and Jeremiah Poer arrived in Guildford County, NC in 1790 and supposedly began to raise their families in this locale. I am seeking information regarding this family and especially Benjamin Poer born in 1799.

Somewhere I saw people from different areas putting obituaries online. Would anyone have seen this same thing? I sure would be grateful to hear from all my friends. Thanks, windy

To All Whom It May Concern: Search the “DESCRIPTIVE & HISTORICAL REGISTER of Enlisted Soldiers in the U.S. Army,” who served “At Buffalo,” between 1835 and 1846. This is a free service on: The Buffalo Barracks Historical Web Site [ http://www.buffalonet.org/army ] Every pre-Civil War state was well represented at this short lived federal military post. Many having served in the Florida Indian Wars, the War with Mexico, and then the Civil War. Perhaps you have an ancestor who was at the Buffalo Barracks? Cliff Williams 104740.372@compuserve.com

Is anyone researching the line of Isaac Armfield who married Polly Hendrix in 1834? Or Jane Armfield who married Wilson Hendris in 1833? Both married in Guilford Co., NC. Thanks. Susan

I just wanted to add to the posting of the Armfield marriage bonds as published by the GCGS. The posting did not state that the comments in parenthesis are NOT part of the original marriage bond. These are annotations added by the GCGS. Just as a warning, I have sound some of these annotations on my own lines to be incorrect. It appears that many of the annotation errors I have seen were taken from "Buffalo Church and and Her People" by Rev. S. M. Rankin. Rick Saunders Salt Lake City, UT
