    1. [NCGUILFO] Nantucket people in NC
    2. It just occurred to me to call them Nantucketeers but it sounds like a basketball team!! We should really exchange information. I have much much info about Nantucket. I am decended from all of the original families they intermarried so much. I have only the one Mary Starbuck but there were so many children in the contingent lines, I didn't list them all actually in my FTM. Do you have ancestry.com? I have a friend who is gen inclined from New England and he sends me things about Nantucket. I do hope someone helps us with the graves. Randolph Co IN gen site [where my Macys went from NC] has extensive lists of those in each cemetery but I couldn't find anything like that. Also the cemeteries that seemed near New Garden and Center MM's had no research about them at all it seemed. On Findagrave.com there are volunteers to photo headstones. I haven't tried to get through there but I will and let you know. So good to hear from you. I am very proud of my Nantucket ance! stors.. ......to the point that my grandchildren are getting a little bored with my stories!! Oh, well,..........Until later then............Phyllis DePoy......better know as phd Message: 4 Date: Fri, 28 Dec 2007 12:07:27 -0500 From: marsha moses <mosesm@earthlink.net> Subject: Re: [NCGUILFO] MACY/MACEY To: ncguilfo@rootsweb.com Message-ID: <47752D4F.8020708@earthlink.net> Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Hello PH. The Nantucket Quakers who were in Guilford County, NC are of great interest to me as well. So please keep any discussion on your Macy's....Starbucks.....etc on the mail list. I am interested. One of my big goals this year is to prove that my 3-gr-grandfather, Silas P. Wooten, was married to Phebe Worth.....everyone seems to except this as fact....I feel sure that it is....but I would like just a bit more proof. But at this point, I am accepting it as very probably a true fact. Phebe's 2-gr-grandmother was Sarah Macy married to William Worth. I also believe that Phebe was a descendent of Mary Starbuck of an earlier generation than that of your Mary Starbuck Macy, but I can't find the proofs right this second to say it with conviction. I would also be very interested to know if there is information on grave sites for any of these Nantucket Quakers who were living in NC in the late 1700's to early 1800's.
