We have had some members leave and new ones come on board.

I, too, am searching Murray and Wrenn as well as Cook, Kernodle, Barber, McIntyre, Summers among many others, but those are the ones I'm working on right now. These families are around the upper part of Alamance County and eastern Guilford County.

I am searching the surname Gibson, mid-to-late 1700s in Orange and Rockingham Counties.

Last but not least, my elusive WALKER family! They lived in the part of Orange Co NC that in 1777 became Caswell Co NC, and their home was on Moon's Creek. Looking for a James WALKER who had a wife named Ann and who died intestate in 1802 in Caswell Co NC, whilst in the middle of a lawsuit to eject one Lewis PIKE from some land that straddled the border between Caswell Co NC and Rockingham Co NC. This James WALKER may have been a brother of a Samuel WALKER who had a wife named Eleanor and who died testate in 1798 in Caswell Co NC. James WALKER owned this Moon's Creek land before 1777, when it was in Orange Co NC. He is probably the father of the Revolutionary War pensioner James WALKER (1755-c1837), a nomad who ended up in Adams Co OH. Would love to "place" this patriarch James WALKER! Lin London, England

Kirksey and Dixon are in Orange Co., NC. They are found there in the Register of Orange Co., NC Deeds. They were there as early as 1757. Michael Dixon/Dickson came from Lunenburg Co., VA originally. I have not established an origin for Edward Kirksey. Angie agwilderman@comcast.net

John Russell and wife, Elizabeth Webb were married in Orange County in 1804. They were founding members of Center Methodist Church which is now in Alamance or Chatham, right on the border as I recall. Elizabeth was the daughter of Johnson Webb and Gracy McCarver. Elizabeth died in 1850 and is buried at the Center Methodist Church Cemetery. John Russell was born in Ireland and was a weaver by trade, but I do not know his parents. He died between 1830 and 1840, but I do not know his burial site. John and Elizabeth had 10 children: Johnson Mary Ann Nancy James Rebecca William Alexander Alfred David John William married Jane Thompson, daughter of John Thompson and Jane Alexander. She was the widow of George Johnston. William and Jane migrated to Arkansas in 1848. Some of her Johnston children went with them, but stopped in west Tennessee. Alfred Russell also migrated to Arkansas. There was another John Russell family in Orange County at the same time and the two families have often been confused. They had similar names for their children (God bless those Scots-Irish naming patterns!) and both intermarried with the Thompsons. I would love to find the parents of my original immigrant, John Russell. Sue Russell
