I am curious about the indexes to North Carolina's Death Certificates. I have found the indexes for 1968-1996 at Ancestry.com but nothing earlier. I am sure there is a reason why this is so but I have never heard it. Would some kind soul tell me why these really useful indexes are not available? Thanks Don Lail __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Read only the mail you want - Yahoo! Mail SpamGuard. http://promotions.yahoo.com/new_mail

If anyone is working on the Seabolt line of Lincoln County, N.C. and also the ones that moved to Georgia, I have quite a lot of info on them. Abraham Seabolt married Christiana Rinck and most of Abraham's family moved to Georgia also. Would like to share info with you. Thanks

Polly Williams was probably not born in NC. Thomas Williams died 1826 recieved land (250 Acres) in Caldwell Co KY for service in Delaware Line. Polly Williams married Wm D Christopher in Caldwell Co Ky 14 SEP 1820. Wm D died in St Francios Co MO in 1863. Buried on family farm on Big River. Probate records in St. Francios County Courthouse.

Does anyone know the names and locations of the textile mills in Lincolnton In the 1920s and 1930s. There is confusion and disagreement between my Mother and her sister, both in their 80's about the mills.

Diane, you may already have this info. On Bill Floyd's site there is a Dovia L. Wright listed as follows, buried in Friendship Methodist cemetery [ http://ns1.rfci.net/wdfloyd/FShip1.html ]: Wright, George T. c1871 c1926 Wright, Dovia L. c1874 ----- It is unclear why her death date isn't on the stone. I have had a similar situation with relatives where when one spouse died, the other's name was listed on the stone, but they moved or remarried and are not actually buried there. In other cases they just didn't ever have the death date engraved. It would be good to check the marriages for surrounding area to see if she remarried, and to check the NC deaths after 1926 to see if you can locate a death certificate for her. This would perhaps list her parents and also place of burial. I did find a listing in the 1930 census for 2 Dovie Wrights in Cleveland Co. 1]Listed as and aunt in the household of Daisy Wright, widow, age 42, and her 9 children, in the Double Shoals township, is Dovie Wright, 56, listed as divorced. 2]Listed in township 6 {Shelby/surrounds}, is Dovie Wright, 54, widow, head of household, with the following children: Grady 21, Hattie 19, Paul 17, Bonnie (son) 13, Essie L. 11, and Plez (son) 9. Hope this may be of some help... Good luck!

Hi, Buried in St. Peter's Lutheran Church (MO Synod) Cemetery north of Newton-Conover, Catawba County according to Catawba County Cemeteries, Book 2, page 148, is the following name person - CONROD HAENER 25 Mar 1810 31 Jul 1852 42y 4m 6d Of all the variations of the spelling of the Hefner surname - Heffner, Heavener, Heavner, Hafer, Hafner, Haver, Havner, Heafner, this is a new one to me if this is a variation of the Hefner surname. Does this person with these dates appear familiar to anyone? I have looked in the 1840 Census - Upper Regt. Militia, Lincoln Co. and 1850 Catawba Co., NC and am unable to find this person under any listing. Also checked 1810 NC Census index for anything close to this spelling as well as the NC Wills: A Testator Index 1665-1900 & "Lifting High the Cross for 200 Years - St. John's Lutheran Church MO Synod," Conover, NC by Mark Smith - none found.

His father was William Sidney Hedrick born 1833 in Lincoln County and died 16 March 1924 in Catawba County. According to William Jr's death certificate his mother's name was Eliza Matherson. I found a family tree on Ancestry.com that said her name was possibly Leisa Jane Matherson born about 1845 in North Carolina. Leisa could be Eliza (Elizabeth). However, Matherson can be changed to Matheson, Mathison or even Masterson. The tree I found also said they were probably married in Burke County, NC about 1865. I have no other information on her. I would appreciate any tidbits you can give me on her. I'm willing to share any information I have on my Hedrick Line. Also this could be helpful, William Jr's grandson who is still living said that William Jr said he, William, was part Native American. I haven't found any Native American link in this line yet, but Eliza is still unresearched and is possibly the link. Thank you, Dusty Holman

This grant entitles this non-profit organization to schedule two outstanding speakers at Cleveland County Memorial Library. On Saturday, April 23, 2005, at 10:00 a.m., William (Bill) Anderson will be presenting a program entitled "Cherokee Removal". The removal of the Cherokee Nation from its homeland in the Southeast to a new territory beyond the Mississippi remains a compelling and controversial event in United States history. The Cherokee, more than any other Native American people, tried to adopt Anglo-American culture. In a remarkably short time, they transformed their society and modified their traditional culture in order to conform to United States policy, to fulfill the expectations of white politicians and philanthropists, and most importantly, to preserve tribal integrity. On the eve of Cherokee removal, many white Americans considered them to be the most "civilized" of all native peoples. Why then were the Cherokees removed? Dr. Anderson is a History Professor at Western Carolina University where he specializes in Native American history, in particular the Cherokee culture. He i! s a graduate of the University of Alabama. Dr. Anderson continued his research through post-doctoral work at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville. He is also the editor of "The Journal of Cherokee Studies". Dr. Anderson received the Gustavus Myers Award for the Study of Human Rights in the U.S. for his book, "Cherokee Removal: Before and After." Also speaking on Saturday, April 23, 2005 is Anne Rogers. She will be presenting a program at 12:30 p.m. entitled, "Cherokee Ceremonial Practices in the 1800's". The Cherokee ceremonial practices were first recorded in the 1830s by John Howard Payne and later in that century by James Mooney. This presentation describes the ceremonies that were practiced during this time, and discusses various aspects of Cherokee life at that time that are still evident in their lives and culture. Included is a discussion of various dances that are still performed today as well as the tales that continue to be told in story telling sessions. Ms. Rogers is an Anthropology Professor from Western Carolina University where she specializes in archaeology and Native American studies. She has conducted archaeological research for more than 20 years in the Southern Appalachian region, including North Carolina, Tennessee, Georgia and Virginia. Her research in Native American studies has focused ! on the Cherokee, both past and present. Both presentations will be held in the large conference room of Cleveland County Memorial Library.
