Is there anyone researching the Owens and Mitchels of The berryhill area and used to be the Steel Creek Area? What cemeteries in that area and have they been printed into book form or CD? My gr.grandmother was Jane Minerva Owens, that married William Glover. I am working on both lines. and am stumped on the Owens. Jane's mother was Sarah who died in 1869, and her son was William AL. both children born in Mecklenburg Co. Do not know who Jane's father was? thanks Betty [email protected]

Olena, If you are available to do exchange research where you live, take a look at the websites listed in my signature. Both have people in many areas who will do look ups for you. You need to be able to tell them what to look up and you have to be willing to wait for them to do the search at their convenience, but I haven't found it to be a hardship. I've done lookups mostly in our libraries obituary collection. I have had look ups done for marriage licenses and cemetery headstone photographs. I've been very pleased.

I am requesting info from anyone who might know of an inexpensive contact for copies of marriage certificates, land records, census records etc. I have contacted the county offices and they let me know, that because of there back load, they do not do research. Help, Olena Peninger Lively [email protected]

Hello Deborah.... In another branch of our Reed family (other than my direct line) , and much later in time....we have a Mary Elizabeth Dixon who married Jesse Jenkins Reed ( b. 11 Mar 1840 ; s/o Cumberland Presbyterian minister Rev. Carson Pate Reed)...this line of Reeds had removed from Mecklenburg Co by then and gone to Giles Co TN ca. 1809/10. If these are your Dixons , then some of them migrated right along with them . I'm copying some descendants of this line who would know much more than I do (just told you everything I know) happy hunting...........Malinda Jones ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, September 26, 1999 10:13 AM Subject: [NCMECKLE] Dixon/Dickson Family - Reedy Creek/Back Creek/Mallard Creek > Looking for any information about Elizabeth Dixon died ca. 1815 in Cabarrus > County on Reedy Creek.

Dick The records I checked were from Providence Presbyterian...not New Providence. I don't have New Providence records. However, I check Providence for you and none of those you listed are buried there. Linda ---------- > From: Richard B.

There is a listing for Providence Presbterian Church in Matthews ( Metropolitan Charlotte) that has one listing for Brown (John Brown - died 4-2-1782) and several McCullah/McCulloch - none for an Margaret, wife of Isaac - but there is one for Elizabeth McCullan, wife of Isaac (died 9-9-1819). If this seems to be the persons you are interested in let me know and I will send you all pertinent info in the book PROVIDENCE PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH 1767 - 1967.

Linda: Saw your message on the New Providence Presbyterian cemetery - by any chance are there any Alexanders buried there? Looking specifically for: [Rebecca} Adeline [Gilmer] Alexander and Dan [Daniel] Alexander died 1863 more or less, [don'thave the file at hand right now]. Thanks, Dick Alexander Tucson E-Mail: [email protected] is the usual e-mail address I use

Kay, If this is the Providence Presby (now New) there are many McCullogh buried there but didn't see and Isaac. There is only one Brown buried there: John Brown, d. apr 2, 1782 age 13 yrs. This Providence Presby is in Mecklenburg Co. however, so I guess it is not the same Providence as New Providence. There are about 20 McCulloughs but they all died in the early 1800s. None are there that died prior to 1800.

I am interested in knowing the location of the New Providence Presbyterian Church which is suppose to be located in this county.

I'm researching the family of William and Nancy Hammond. Both were born in Mecklenburg County in the 1790's. I know of two children: Wilson and Bryant (my ggg grandfather). Both were born in Rowan County, which is now Davie County, in the 1830's. Anybody else doing research on this family.
