List members, I got one of these early this morning myself except mine did not appear to have an attachment. The subject looked like any post to the Lenoir List but I can see my emails without opening them and it wasn't from the list. I deleted the post totally off my pc but think the rest of the subject was Tyndall/Noble Collection. ROOTSWEB DOES NOT ALLOW ATTACHMENTS so if you ever get one that looks like it comes from ANY list - delete it. Norton's runs a scan every Friday night and I had no virus last night but fixing to re-run it. Something about this [email protected] rings a bell from a year or so ago but can't remember the reason. Martha Any idea why I just received a message from [email protected] addressed to NCLENOIR-L? It appears to be an old announcement from you about Patty's posting of the Tyndall/Noble Collection on the Lenoir Co Archives site in Feb. 2000. I was subscribing to that mail list in 2000, but not since. It has an attachment (which mail lists don't allow) but I didn't open it. The attached file name is "My Documents.ppt.pif". The source code for the message describes this file as an audio file: Content-Type: audio/x-midi; name=My Documents.ppt.pif ??? Betsy >Â

Someone contacted me a couple of weeks ago about the Journal of William Taylor which she had inherited and is typing up. When it is finished it will be posted but thought I would pass on a few tidbits gleamed so far, Daniel Taylor (b1748) was the son of Robert and Elizabeth Stone Taylor of Dobbs Co. and he married Elizabeth Rouse (b (1760) daughter of John and Ann Rouse. This much we already knew from the Taylor Bible Records found at the DAR. This John Rouse was John II and the father of the John Rouse who has always been referred to as John Jr - people missed a generation. The author of the Journal was William Taylor the youngest child of Daniel and Elizabeth. He refers to his uncle William Taylor who remained in Dobbs Co and had 5 daughters but he did not name them nor call his aunt by name. John Rouse had a loom house and his daughter Elizabeth was well known in the neighborhood for her handwork. Daniel proposed to her in the loom house. This tells us something about John Rouse as I assume it was unusual to own a loom house at that time. William states the Rouse family was of Welsh descent. The Taylors had carriages which few people owned in Dobbs County at the time. Daniel Taylor was scheduled to go to England for his education when the Rev. War broke out but somehow he received an education and became a teacher. The most important item I have seen refers to the Tories in Dobbs Co I could mention a great many of mother's recollections of the war. She was young but remembered how feather beds were ripped open, feathers scattered to the winds, smoke houses robbed of the last piece of meat, cattle, sheep, pigs and fowls taken and destroyed with impunity. The Tories were their worst enemies, some of their neighbors were Tories. I remember one incident that occurred at her father's house. One of the Tory gang, I guess a neighbor, one of their acquaintances at least, came in and said the Rebels must hang up their fiddles, this was about the time that the British had overrun South Carolina, but enough of this, better historians have recorded the cruelties of the war! This passage appears to confirm what some of us have speculated about for years - there was not total agreement in the area as to the Rev. War and most likely neighbor turned against neighbor. That probably was the basis for the violence in Dobbs Co that was so bad it was written about in even northern papers. This passage appears to indicate the Rouse family supported the break from England. This Journal is a spectacular find especially in the early chapters. The family moved to Tenn and then on to Ms before it became a state. Stay tuned for more. Martha

In cleaning up my database have a couple of questions and speculations. Trish, you said Abner had a daughter Sarah Adelaide. That cemetery is in or near Hookerton. My Albrittons lived right outside Hookerton and that is where their cemetery is today. I have Abner's parents as Benjamin and Mary (Polly) Dawson - is that correct? James Albritton's first wife was Sarah Rouse b 1810 daughter of Henry and Penelope Rouse according to the family Bible. James and Sarah had at least one child - Mary Elizabeth but I have no clue what happened to her. Neither do I have any clue who that Henry Rouse was although there were a couple in Greene Co. When Sarah Rouse Albritton died, James Albritton md 2nd Margaret Ormond. They named their oldest daughter Sarah Adelaide Albritton and there is no Adelaide in either the Ormond of Albritton families that I know of. Sarah Adelaide Albritton Mewborn was my gg grandmother. Wonder if there is some close connection between Abner and Henry Rouse - other than being cousins of some sort. Martha

Interesting information.

Abner Rouse I (1821-1880) is buried there under a boxwood (no marker) beside his wife Harriet (Parks) Rouse, 10 Mar 1823 - 7 Feb 1910. The story is that Harriet planted the boxwood over his grave. I don't know why there is no marker. Family lore is that Abner lost his mind after losing all his money, not being able to collect on loans after the Cvil War. People had no money to repay him. I don't know the real facts, but he owned that land at one time. There are at least three generations of Abners buried there, along with their families. Also the name Peninah or "Nina" was popular in this family. However, I cannot identify the Nina Rouse or Grace Rouse that Susan was asking about. I have visited the cemetery several times and it is beautiful. I have never found out who tends it. That is something I need to do, because Abner and Harriet are my 3-gr-grandparents. Sarah Victoria Murphrey Rouse Johnson is buried there beside her 2nd husband John H. Johnson. Her marker is inscribed "Sarah Victoria, wife of J. H. Johnson, July 25 1850 - Dec. 5, 1909. Sarah Victoria Murphrey Rouse is my 2-gr-grandmother. Her first husband Joseph "Joe" Rouse died or disappeared about 1875. He may be buried there, but there is no marker now for him. 1875 is when their fourth child, Joseph, named for his father, was born. On 13 Jul 1876 Sarah Victoria Murphrey Rouse married J. H. Johnson. • Greene County, NC Marriage Register - lists July 13, 1876, marriage license issued to JNO. H. JOHNSON, age 24, and VICTORIA ROUSE, age 25. They were married by W. F. DIXON at the the home of VICTORIA ROUSE. Witnesses: LEWIS JOHNSON, J. H. MURPHREY, J. B. TILGHMAN. Sarah Victoria & Joe Rouse's daughter Lorena Rouse, b. 16 Sep 1867 (my gr-grandmother) was raised by her stepfather J. H. Johnson and was married in his home. I have a picture of Lorena when she was older, but she was still a lovely lady. She usually wore her hair in two braids which were pinned across her head. Lorena Rouse married Elisha Dennis Little. They are not buried in this cemetery, but have babies buried there and one son, Zebulon Gray Little, who died in 1912 at the age of 18 from typhoid fever while he was a student at Trinity College in Durham. That is my connection to this cemetery. When going through the listing which Mrs. Kilpatrick made for this cemetery, there were some for whom I could not relate to this family. Sarah E. Parson was one of them. Will need to figure out how she fits in here. Abner and Harriett Rouse had a daughter Sarah Adelaide, but I have that she married Lewis James Johnson and outlived him.

Any of you who have traced families back into early Va. know this book is invaluable in connecting lines. It is being republished in a series of three volumes at one year intervals which is good given the price. Vol 1 has been published and contains the Muster Rolls and 52 families, letters A-F, most with generations traced for 6 generations. The reprint is being "prepared under the auspices of the Order of First Families of Virginia, 1607 - 1624/25 in anticipation of the 400th anniversary of the founding of Jamestowne, and edited by the foremost authority on Virginia genealogy, John Frederick Dorman".
