I did a book on david Rollins and the lambs. nancy Baker married david in 1809 in Randolph Co., NC His 1st wife was mother of these children. She is THOUGHT to have been Lydia Collins but there is no proof. I think her last name may have been mixed up with later generations. Do you have any more information on Enoch, Ruth or Nathaniel?

There were VERY FEW Odell's from Ireland at that time in history..the name was corrupted at the time of the Irish Potato Famine, around 1850's...with so many O'Days, O'Roarks, O'Malleys, O'Sullivans et. al., that they were told "this is how to spell your name"..and we Odell's know different..but for some reason, in the southern states, O'Dell has become commonplace, neither can presume to be RIGHT OR WRONG...and there's no right or wrong to it.

I had a Kime family and a Schultz family migrate from NC abt 1812 to Indiana and later to OR . They got land grants in OR . Linda in CA

Someone sent me a website that I wanted to share with others. It shows an activated map describing our history from 1790 to 1950. It tells when each state joined the Union and a little history of what was happening at those times. www.animatedatlas.com/movie.html

My HARDESTER / HARDISTER family were in the Randolph County area from around 1780 to 1815. The family migrated primarily to two areas: Arkansas and Missouri. Later, some continued on to California - the former seemed to settle in Southern California while the latter went on to Northern California, with some settling in Indiana and Illinois along the way. I have no idea of the reason for the migration, but I do know that my family, back to a least my g-grandfather, has preferred to live in a rural area whenever possible. So, if the area in which they were living became crowded, they probably pulled up stakes and moved on. Again, that's what my family has done. Mike - CA back to Eastern NC and looking to move again One problem in

This came to my mind ... I think it might be valid also. What about Indian displacements. Wasn't a lot of that going on even before the Civil War? I heard it was the goal of President Washington as well as others to displace the Indians to a point on the other side of the Mississippi. --- [email protected] wrote: > During ALL thde years between the end of the > Revolutionary War and the Civil > War there was movement from NC to Indiana.

Brenda, What I have seen from members of those families I am searching from Montgomery and Randolph Counties in NC had a lot to do with the Civil War,and economic conditions in the south at the time. I have people who went to the Plainfield/Indianapolis, IN area, some stayed while others made a trip or two back to NC. I remember reading about the "Hoosiers" a bit ago and the story was of a huge group of people from out of Winston-Salem( Forsyth County) who gathered a lot of the local people from NC and traveled to IN as a group. If you can check with Forsyth County Library in Winston-Salem,NC you might find more information,or check search engines for "Hoosiers." I'm sure the libraries in IN will have information about that. I don't know about those going to Arkansas though. Good luck, Richard C. Harper

During ALL thde years between the end of the Revolutionary War and the Civil War there was movement from NC to Indiana. I know because several branches of my family participated in this migration. Some of them didn't like slavery, others movedfor religious reasons (?), who knows what else? Maybe it was the lure of free land. They usually walked alongside their covered wagons and made their way through the Cumberland Gap. Cookie, a Hoosier in Florida << [email protected] >>

Brenda, My husband's Harrell family left Guilford (just above Randolph) Co between 1860 and 1870 for Bartholomew Co, Indiana. According to the little verbal info that I have gotten from the current family, the Harrell family left because of post Civil War difficulties in the area. Also, according to reading on the subject a few years ago, I learned that quite a few families left for Indiana and Arkansas at that time and that some had left ca 1820 for the same areas. I suppose that word of that move and some possible connections to the 1820 families contributed to the decision of those who left 50 years later. If I can locate the material on the moving subject, will send to you.

I am 100% sure that has to be the correct Sirona (not a very common name) since the years and other info match. It has made me so happy to have that information. Sirona died when my grandmother was only 1 yr. old and everyone in my family has always wanted to know about her. If you happen to come back across that newspaper cliping about China I would love to have it, if you wouldn't mind sending it to me, a copy of it that is. Do you by any chance have a photocopy of the 1900 Census? Sorry, for the 20 questions, it just seems like so many question are starting to be answered. Again, I can't thank you enough for posting that information. Hope to hear back from you soon. I tried to send you an email, but for some reason it kept telling me that delivery failed? Probably my hotmail acting up. Hope to hear from you soon.

I am looking for ideas to help me locate missing family. Ayny ideas are greatly appreciated. Here is my scenario: 1860 my family is in Randolph Co., NC. 1870 family is still there minus the father and oldest child which happens to be a daughter, Ann(a). 1874 Anna and husband John have a child in Wayne Co. IN. 1880 a family resembling mine minus oldest children appears in Clay Co. AR and my family disappears from NC. Between 1860 & 1870 how does one travel from NC to the west (IN and AR)? What means of transportation and route? Why would people go to IN and AR at that time? What happens if someone is traveling on census day? Thanks, Brenda in TX

The information I have about her is as follows: She was born approx. 1893. All of her family was from Ashboro, NC. Her father was called "China" - I assume this was his nickname. Supposedly China had a brother named William. Serona married Erasmus Cozart and had 2 daughters - Thelma & Evelyn. She died in 1920/21 at age 27 from tuberculosis in the tuberculosis sanitarium in Winston-Salem, NC. She is buried in an unmarked grave in Winston-Salem. She had a lot of oriental features according to descriptions of her given to my grandmother many years ago. Her name may have been Serona Edna since it is listed that way on the 1920 census so it could be listed either way on records. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
