    1. Re: [NCLINCOLN] need some help please!!!!
    2. Lynn Wesson
    3. According to the Ancestry database "NC deaths 1993-1996", Sue Beatrice Vermillion Dellinger died 6/13/1993. The info in that database is taken off the actual death certificates. Her father's last name was listed as Vermillion. Birthdate was listed as 10/18/1951 in TN. Place of death was in Lincoln County, NC, at home, and the case was listed as a medical examiner case, which means the circumstances of the death were suspicious or warranted investigation. I would suggest that you try to contact a newspaper in Lincolnton Gastonia, or Shelby, NC, and ask if they can look for articles on or after June 13, 1993 pertaining to this lady. They can also look up the obituary for you. I would suspect there might be a charge for this. The Shelby Paper is the Star [website http://www.shelbystar.com/]. The Lincolnton paper is the Lincoln Times-News[website http://www.lincolntimesnews.com/]. The Gastonia paper is the Gaston Gazette [website http://www.gastongazette.com/]. Good luck to you on finding out more about your aunt.

    3. Sorry but you cannot assume that The spelling of a name in a census is a typo, since they were hand written. You can assume that the census taker spelled the name they way he presumed it to be, which was often the case, you take what you get and hope for the best. You can never presume that the way you spell a name is the way your ancestor spelled it, Sometimes it depended upon the ability of that ancestor to even write. A surprising number of our ancestors signed everything with an X. If you find the will of your James you will know if he could write, since he will have signed it. You might follow his land to see where he got it, he may well have inherited from his parents or an uncle and this will give you a lead. Or after his father died he may have sold what he inherited taken the money and moved to another county, Since Grassy Creek is in Ashe county I am not sure why you are looking in Lincoln. Mitchell is in the north west part of NC and a bit removed from Lincoln it was not created until 1861 so I am surprised you were able to find him there in 1860 since there was no Mitchell then. What census were you looking at when you found the family in 1860? There could be some wills you could look at, a will index usually has a list of those who were named in the will, so an examination of Lincoln Co. will indexes could lead you in the right direction. He might even be mentioned in the will of his wife's parents You might also try to determine what religion he was and look for church records of baptisms, if you have a birth place Census records are only a beginning, there are many more records for you to examine. Of course you may already know all of this in any case good luck. Agnes C.

    1. RE: [NCLINCOLN] 1830 census
    2. Lynn E. Wesson
    3. Cindy, Only heads of households were listed in censuses until 1850 when all household occupants were enumerated. However, if you know your James Andrew Johnson was born ~1819, you can look in censuses in 1820, 1830, and 1840 for males in the household of the correct age.

    1. Ursula Poundland and Barnett Putnam
    2. Jeff Martin
    3. Joseph's email no longer works so I am posting this here: ------------------------ From: Joseph F. Gantt [SMTP:[email protected]] Sent: Sunday, June 13, 1999 5:41 PM Jeff, I suspect (without sufficient foundation at this point) that the Ursula "Poundland" (b. 1805) who married Barnett Putman/Putnam (a son of Keziah Robert's sister, Nancy) may have actually been a daughter of John B. Fondren who lived in the same neighborhood in Rutherford Co. (now Cleveland Co.), NC during the early 1800's. This suspicion is based upon the fact that the name "Poundland" was originally given by Betty Jo Carpenter of Rutherfordton, NC (the principle researcher on Barnett & Ursula) who now cannot recall exactly where she got the name and says that it should be considered as a weak source. Since I can find no information on the name Poundland anywhere, I suspect that Ursula probably came from a nearby family with a similar sounding name. John B. Fondren (Fondlen, Fondlin, etc.) is the only one in the region that fits this description and it turns out he lived in very close proximity to Putnam, Roberts, and several other related families (like the Sanders, Weavers, Spurlings, Barnetts, Bridges and Loves). According to my notes from 1830 Census of Rutherford County, North Carolina, abstracted by Miles S. Philbeck, Jr., published by the Genealogical Society of Old Tryon County, Inc., PO Box 938, Forest City, NC 28043, 1982, the household of John Fondlen (presumably John B. Fondren) is shown as follows: 2 males (5-9 yrs): probably Morris R. and Nimrod L. 1 male (10-14 yrs): probably John R. 2 males (15-19 yrs): probably William Butler and Whitmon C. H. 1 male (50-59 yrs): John B. Fondren (Fondlin) 1 female (5-9 yrs): probably Miranda 1 female (10-14): probably Amaretta 4 females (15-19): probably Unity, Jane and two unknown daughters (or girls) 1 female (40-49): Keziah (Roberts) This shows John B. & Keziah with a total 11 children in 1830. Since John B. was probably in his early 50's and Keziah was in her late 40's, it is conceivable that they may have had at least one child not shown in the 1830 census because the child may have already married and left home (Barnett & Ursula were married about 1826). Unfortunately, I don't know what the 1820 and earlier censuses show for this family. Have you exhaustively researched the extant public records for this family in Rutherford Co. (later Cleveland Co.)? Do you know of any other researchers who may be able to shed some light on this subject? Thank you very much for your consideration. Joseph Gantt Asheville, NC ------------------------- Hello Joe... Yes, I am a habitual pack rat. Consider this a five and a half year delayed follow-up. I wanted to let you know I may have an answer to this riddle. Or worst case scenario, present you with another riddle within a riddle. Check 1830 Lincoln census page 159 (neighbor of Willis Putnam) an interesting head of household by the name of Creade Beauland: 1 male 10-15; 1 male 15-20; 1 female 40-50. This portion of the Lincoln census listed all of the inhabitants of the SW corner of Lincoln where Township 3 and 4 of Cleveland County is located today. Now for some voluntary speculation. I believe Creade was a widow and I believe she was a widow of a Mr. Bolin/Bollin/Bowland. I tend to group these names together and I am now prepared to include Bowling and even your Poundland. If you look a little deeper there is an Enoch Bowling also on the 1830 LCC and he was a newlywed. I believe Enoch was Creade's son. I also don't believe her name was Creade. Perhaps Creese or even short for Lucretia which I have seen spelled several ways. No need to speculate on this further and I'll continue to call her Creade for now. Anyway I am now prepared to speculate that Barnett Putnam was married to Ursula Bolin, sister of Enoch and daughter of the head-of-household listed as neighbor to Willis Putnam who was Barnett's brother.
