Hi Everyone -- I know that this couple lived and died in Hertford County. Sarah was born in Hertford in 1793 while Marmaduke is the son of Charles Matthews SMITH who d. 19 Sep 1823 in Gates County. Marmaduke and Sarah's son, James 'Jake' Washington SMITH, was born 27 Nov 1831 in Hertford County. Does anyone have any info on these people?

I saw this site several months ago on one of my Mailing Lists and have found it very useful. I thought I'd recommend it because for one, it is FREE, and because it has some really great info to help people understand some of the things they come across while researching. it is Southeastern Genealogy Online at http://www.segenealogy.com/ Among some of the best things this site has are Links to OLD MAPS MILITARY LINKS, that take you right to pages with descriptions of the various wars, and military campaigns. OLD ILLNESSES, a complete indexed database that describes exactly what those funny diseases our ancestors may have died from. This one alone is worth a visit, I use it all of the time. GENEALOGICAL ABBREVIATIONS, if you've ever wondered what some of those old abbreviations meant in documents, this is the place to check. It is indexed. GENERAL DESCRIPTIONS, tells you what is meant by some of those words or old terms used in old documents. I'll bet you all want to know what ADMINSTRATION CUM TESTAMENTO ANNEXO or even a REVERSE INDEX means. All of this is indexed also. There are other things there that others may find useful, and I recommend especially for those having difficulty understanding some of the things they come across while researching to take a look at this site. I think it's great. By the way, I have nothing to do with the owners of the site, and I don't even know who does own it, I'm recommending this site because I think it will help someone in their researches.

Claudia Harrell Williams has just finished transcribing the Hertford County Southern District of the 1850 Census which details the 441 families enumerated. Guy Potts has posted the information to the Hertford County GenWeb site at: http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/nc/hertford.htm Claudia this is fantastic of you and very appreciated by everyone! An enormous job well done ~ thank you so much! Marianne ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----

Hi Everyone, Guy manages the Archives for about 30 county sites and is currently working on the monumental job of overhauling them with a new format and search tools. Apparently, keeping up with the files using the traditional TOC method has become overwhelming task for those responsible, and they are working on a better all round system for managing the information. Guy just told me that he has changed the format of the Hertford site to the new system and has implemented the duel search methods for the Digital Library searches. Please check it out at: http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/nc/hertford.htm Test out the two search methods if you will, and let Guy know your thoughts about them. There is an explanation there on the page but basically there are two search methods one is the traditional TOC [County Table of Contents] and the other utilizes search engines. The first/last name search finds all the names used side by side. The next search finds all the first names and all the last names found anywhere in a file [not together]. You may want to look at this link if you haven't already, check out all the links on this page to get a good idea of what information is acceptable for submission to the Archives to avoid copyright issues or other problems. Some of the photos are very interesting. http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/nc/ncarch.htm Marianne

Hi Everyone, FYI: Noticed that the 1860 Hertford County census at Ancestry.com was missing the first 8 pages which covered 67 1/2 families and wrote to them to ask what was up? The online Tec named Kevin said that: Kevin:I have verified that those are not on our site currently; however, according to the National Archives, Hertford is not a partial county, but complete, in the year 1860. I will pass this along to our programmers, who will correct this issue as soon as they are able. ? - How long should everyone plan for this to take - can you guesstimate? Kevin: We post fixes to errors in the order of those affecting the greatest number of users first, and thereafter in the order in which they are received. Kevin: As soon as possible, however, we will have those fixed. ? - Okay then... well, what would be a good time to check back with you if they are not made available in a short while??? Kevin: I would say check back on our site every couple of weeks, and contact us again in three months if you haven't seen a fix. I'm not saying it will take that long, as I don't know how long it will be. However, I would say give it that long to contact us if the fixes still haven't been posted. ? -Thank you so much for your help with this matter. Would you please bump the request up the food chain ladder if at all possible ... please? :o) Kevin: I'll do what I can!

Does anyone know the directions to Maneys Cemetery Riddicksville, Hertford County, North Carolina ? I saw at the Political Graveyard site that the politician Thomas Wynns (1764 - 1825) is buried there so there must be a number of other people interned there as well ~ might be a good one to list on the site. Here are some links that you may find interesting: http://potifos.com/cemeteries.html http://politicalgraveyard.com/geo/NC/HR.html#R9T1F4F8O http://www.totentanz.de/usa.htm#northcarolina http://usgenmap.rootsweb.com/usnc.htm

Wanted to let you know that Guy has given the Hertford Archives a new look that is not only attractive it is functional. The search engines have been updated and many of the people on our List have been chipping in info to "fill out" the information available for research. Please check it out and donate something about the lines that you are working on while your there if you have a minute. Here are a couple of interesting newspaper articles that you may enjoy reading before they are stored in the Archives: The Landmark Newspaper Statesville, NC February 23, 1893 There is a movement for the formation of the county of Roanoke out of parts of Bertie, Hertford and Northampton. It is alleged by its opponents that it will make three counties, now Democratic and Republican. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ January 13, 1903 The second trial of Jim Wilcox, charged with the murder of Ella Maude Cropsey, begins at Hertford this week. Wilcox was taken from Elizabeth City jail to Hertford this Friday. His removal was guarded with the utmost caution. The authorities carried him in a closed carriage to the outskirts of the city and by prearrangement with the railroad spirited him away from the city. The movement was guarded and several hours elapsed before his removal became known. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ ++++++++++ January 20, 1903 The second trial of Jim Wilcox for the alleged murder of Ella Maude Cropsey, which began at Hertford last Thursday, is expected to end today. The State finished its evidence Saturday; the defendant offered no evidence and argument was at once begun. The State proved by physicians that the girl was not drowned but was killed by a blow and showed that Wilcox had the opportunity to commit the deed. Of course it could not be shown that Wilcox actually committed the deed but the but the circumstances are against him. It seems to be generally believed by those who have heard the trial that the defendant will again be convicted. There is some doubt about this, however. he may be acquitted. But the feeling against him has not modified. It is as bitter as ever. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Hi, I got a returned mail when I tried to send something to John Godwin. Does anybody have a recent email for him? Thanks, Susan Lassiter Graham

Hi Marianne, You're welcome for the links...and about the quote...my Grandmother wrote it in her bible underneath her birth/family info and I thought it would make a good signature line...and I remember her every time I see it : ) I had never seen it before..but it must have been a saying in those times. How interesting! I have also added the quote to my own family info bible page. Thanks for the photos......What a great house!! Is it still standing? I have just recently joined your Hertford list...and am enjoying all of the new activity on it. I hope that I will be able to contribute to the list. and I am looking forward to learning more about my ancestors and the county they came from.

The quote that you use with your address was just wonderful to read! That is the note that my Grandfather wrote across the page of a book next to the plans for the house that he built in Aulander in 1908. I will attach a photo of that page with the drawing of the house, and a photo of the finished home for you to see.

Wanted to let you all know that a number of researchers have volunteered to begin transcribing the 1850 Hertford Co., NC census for all of us. A couple of them don't even have an ancestor from Hertford County - talk about random acts of generosity! If any of you have a favorite census that you would like to transcribe a portion of for the sake of everyone who may not otherwise have access - please let me know okay? With enough of us pitching in the task isn't so daunting and we'll have them all transcribed and on line for Hertford County with remarkable timing. Thanks for considering ~ Marianne

This is wonderful information Skip! Thank you so much for telling us and we'll see about adding a Son's of Hertford Residents Soldiers List to the Archives - how about that? This could be very interesting you know? Will send this info to Guy Potts today ~ Marianne ----- Original Message ----- From: "skip warren" <swarren77@msn.com> To: <NCHERTFO-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Sunday, April 13, 2003 9:28 AM Subject: [NCHERTFO-L] Civil War list > I too can add two more soldiers to the list if any are interested.
