Seeking information on Albert Leland PURCELL who was born c 1836 in North Carolina and died c 1900 in Little Rock, Arkansas. In the 1860 census he was listed as an overseerer and was living in McKinley, Marengo County, Alabama. He probably married in late 1860 as he had a son who was born in 1861 in Selma, Dallas County, Alabama. That son was named John McLeod PURCELL (1861-1946) and he had a son named Malcolm Lee PURCELL (1893-1978). After Albert Leland PURCELL died some family members moved to the Austin, Texas area. John McLeod PURCELL and his son Malcolm PURCELL were very active in the Presbyterian Church in Texas. Who were the parents of Albert Leland PURCELL? He should show up in the 1850 North Carolina census as a 14 year old boy. I have no idea what county he or his parents may have lived in. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

You probably know this already but Harnett Co was cut entirely from Cumberland Co NC around 1855. So you might find something in Cumberland Co but the records that late in history have not been abstracted, indexed, or published. Lots of records survive, but you must dig them out of the NC Archives. Very tedious. I am a knowledgeable Avery or Avera researcher. Who and where do you have your Avery line? A Richard Avera died about 1844 in Cumberland Co NC who was married to a Civil Ann Godwin. Does that fit your line?

Hello Everyone, Who I believe to be my ancestor, Samuel PAVEY (sometimes spelled Pevey, Pevy, etc), was a chain bearer on a couple of surveys in Pasquotank Co on the 26th and 27th of November, 1756. This is according to (Margaret M. Hofmann?) The Granville Dist. of NC, 1748-1763 ... Abstract of Land Grants, Vol. III:7, patent book 6:11 and 31. Is there anyone who might have this book and be able to do a lookup for me? I would like to know who he was the chain bearer for, and also the area in Pasquotank (if possible.) Thank you. Marsha

A "mustee" was someone of Black and Indian heritage. It comes from the word mustizo. I have a lady at the library checking further on this definition for me. Cindy in NC

Mustifee is a person who is one sixteenth black or the child of a mustifee and a white. This is found in A to Zak, Genealogy Dictionary. Lynda W.

HELP !!!! I signed up for Cabarrus Co last week. It took about 3 tries but I finally got it. Now it seems I have been dropped and cannot get back on the list. Can someone help me with this? I am missing all the messages. Thank you, Joy

I am overwhelmed by the wonderful response to my question about the Subject and all of the helpful information. I can't thank everyone enough! I have received 20 responses so far out of 4 lists that I posted on, and I'm sure with all of the wonderful tips I will be able to accomplish the job myself. Out of the 20 responses about 5 were requests to share the info that I receive. I am putting all of them into one file so it will be easier to fill the requests - if anyone else would like a copy when I have it finished, e-mail me privately and I will be happy to send you one. Please accept my sincere thanks and gratitude for the help - genealogists are the best! Betty Norem (Panama City, FL) bnorem@aol.com

It has been awhile but since I am unable to get out and do library searches, etc., I am posting again to all the sites I can. I am trying to find the father of Bryant DOUGLAS b. 1811 in Tennessee. Abt 1834, he married Mary STARNES b abt 1812. Bryant DOUGLAS was last found on the 1880 Census Rutherford County. So, I am assuming he died between 1880 and 1890. His death could be registered in either Rutherford or Coffee County, TN. Bryant DOUGLAS is the son of one of the two below listed gentlemen. 1) Thomas DOUGLAS (son of John DOUGLAS) b 1780, in Northumberland County, VA who, after migrating through Richmond and and Northumberland counties in Virginia, to either Orange or Caswell County, NC, married Edith Thompson on Feb 29, 1804 in Johnston County, NC. Then they came to Tennessee. He was first found in TN on the 1830 Census of Rutherford County. He lived close to Bryant and Bryant had bought some land from him. There are other things to lead me to believe this could be the father of Bryant Douglas. or Berryman DOUGLAS (son of Joseph) b. Abt 1785 in Fauquier Co., VA. Joseph DOUGLAS was born in Charles Co, MD and has been found in Botetout, Stratford and Westmoreland Counties in Virginia. Berryman DOUGLAS married Susannah Bailes on October 19, 1808 in Grainger Co., TN. They moved then to Rutheford County where she died and he then married (2) Polly Maxwell. Berryman was first found on the Rutherford County Census in 1820 with two male children. one 0-10 yrs old. one 10-16. We are assuming the one 10-16 could be Bryant who was born in 1810-11. There are other things to lead me to believe he could also be the father. These pages reflect my search: http://home.att.net/~gene2/douglas/index.htm Berryman as the father of Bryant http://home.att.net/~gene2/thomas/index.htm Thoams as the father of Bryant. I would appreciate any help anyone has to offer. -- ****** Pat aka Jeeter [Patricia Douglas Vance] Email: VancePat@att.net Jeeter's Joint: http://home.att.net/~VancePat/ Genealogy Page: http://home.att.net/~genology/genelogy.htm Surnames: Douglas, Henry, Martin, Parnell, Raney, Ray, Summers, Tolliver, Vance
