We don't know where the death certificate is, but I think Will in Phoenix probably has the answer. Thanks to all who helped. Next question, is anybody researching Seymours in N.C., especially Elizabeth City? Mother is law's maiden name was Seymour, Erma Marguerite, and had a brother, Phillip Seymour, both born late 1800's. Regards, Pat Sherwood

Does anyone have access to the North Carolina treemaker cd's? If possible, would you check to see if there was a marriage for James Jordan and Catherine (unknown)? between the years l8l9 and l823 in North Carolina? Her surname is not available but the rest of her name may have been Sarah Catherine. Her birthplace was North Carolina according to the federal census. Thanks. Bonnie BJo3791845@aol.com

My mother-in-law was supposed to have been born in Sligo, N.C. Does anyone have any idea where this is? We're stumped. Someone said it might have been annexed into Va. Regards, Pat Sherwood

Richard... Try the NRA and COLT Mfg...It seems to me that many years ago there was a major piece written on the rangers in connectionwith the famous WALKER Colt revolver... Hope I have my facts straight... ed...

I am searching for the Weathers/Withers family out of NC and am at a loss to find my particular line. I would like to find information on a Samuel WEATHERS who apparently was living in NC around 1770, then moved to Laurens Co., SC in 1772 where he purchased land. Samuel was the husband of Martha DURHAM/DURRAM and they had a daughter Isabel who was apparently born in NC (according to baptismal records). I know of a few Samuel WEATHERS's that were in VA around the 1720's but cannot connect any of them to a specific family. Right now I have no clues as to their location in NC so any hints would be helpful. Thanks, Paul __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

I am looking for any information on Fatima C. Newman and Susannah Jane White who I believe were born in Guilford County, NC. They traveled to Hendricks County, Indiana where they married Tilman McFarland. Fatima on June 30, 1871, and Susannah Jane on October 11, 1878. I do not know what happened to Fatima - did she die or were they divorced prior to Tilman's marriage to Susannah. Any information on Fatima or Susannah is appreciated. Conni in Ohio

I am searching for the connection between my ancestor William A. Faison who lived and died in Wake Co. and his ancestors. His daughters death certificate states her father was born in Sampson Co. In 1800 census there is a Henry Faison who was previously in Duplin Co. I think he may be W. A.'s father but have no proof. I would appreciate any help on this. Margaret - Orlando

Hi Richard; I don't know if this will help, but the book "Eight Edition of the Handy Book for Genealogists" by The Everton Publishers, Inc. , PO Box 368, Logan, Utah, 84321, published 1991 (No ISBN that I can find) Way back on page M-55, there are several maps showing Territorial growth 1775 - 1820. The "Territory south of Ohio" was formed in 1790 and included the now states of Tennessee, the north portion of both MIss and Ala. In 1804, the area minus Tenn became "the Mississippi Territory. Tenn became a state in 1796, and in 1817, Miss became a state; Ala became a state in 1819. The Territory Northwest of Ohio was formed in 1787 and included Michigan, Indiana, Ohio, Illinois and Wisconsin.

Does anyone know who or what The Davidson County Rangers were. Does anyone know who and what Lieut Walkers Rangers were. Both are shown as for The territory South of The Ohio, so Iassume they were a band of Peace keepers or Indian Fighters due the time period. I am seeking information on a George NUTTERFIELD who signed on as a private in 1792. Where were they formed? Where did they recruit. I do know that George settled in Shelby Co, Ky as early as 1790. I am seeking any information. George is shown on FTM records as Revolutionary War 1780-1789, but, the only record I have, so far is with the 2 above units. I asume that the Davidson County referred is Davidson County Tn, as I dont know of another at that time. Or, it could have been the home of Lt Walker. I have tried Ky archives and Nashville archives, But, my experience is very Limited on records like these, so I probably didnt do it right.I have been seeking info on George for about 30 years, so, naturally, I would be thrilled and appreciative for any info.George is also shown as George NUTTERFEE/NUTTER, on various records, and married Nancy Stepp McWilliams June 1804 in Shelby Co Ky.

Is anyone familiar with this mill or know anything about a Battle of Whetzel's Mill during the Rev. War? Many Thanks, Connie

Elizabeth & all-- Re the missing messages, I haven't noticed that on my Digest. I sometimes find that one message is put near the top & the first message query is near middle or bottom. What I have been noticing, however, is double & triple original messages & the answers. In 2 days, I will see all the messages 2-3 times as original posts--not copies of (there are many of the forwarding copys too). Yesterday, one message was on a list twice & one the previous digest one time. At this rate, the Archives will be packed with something that is not new information. This is happening on all & only on RootsWeb lists. Must be a problem of theirs. Elizabeth, have you heard anything about others having this problem. Would it be appropriate for you to check with RW to see what's up?? Donna in CA

Is there a list for Old Mt.Airy or some county near there? Is there a place to check out the history of Mt.Airy? Thanks, Connie
