I am seeking any additional information that you can provide about the parents/siblings of Pleasant Webb. Thanks a million. ================================================================ Pleasant (Plesent) WEBB was born about ca 1760-1765. His son, Elias, said that his father, Pleasant was born in Ireland (not substantiated). He died between 1830 and 1840 in Ohio, USA. Around 1800 Pleasant and family came in to the Ohio valley from Rutherford County, North Carolina. In 1803 (reported to be 45 years old) he was in Scioto County, Ohio and was said to be a notorious character. Supposedly, he tried to break up a fight between James Bradley and the wife and children of James Quire (Squires). He ended up shooting Mr. Quire (Squires). After this incident at the Licks, he was driven out of that area. He is also said to have been a Tory during the Revolutionary War. Pleasant was in GreenupCounty, Kentucky in 1820 and in Lawrence County, Ohio in 1830, he did not appear in the 1840 census, so it is believed he died between 1830-1840. Pleasant (Plesent) WEBB and Unknown (Margaret BLACKWELL?) had the following children: James WEBB (1786), Elias WEBB (1788), Thomas Hanley! WEBB (1795), Aden WEBB (1797), Temperance WEBB (1799), William WEBB (1801), Margaret WEBB (1806), Sarah (Sally) WEBB (1809), and Baker WEBB (1811). Larry D.

Bill, Thank you for saying it so well. You have done so much and I appreciate it tremendously. Thank you for helping me out in so many ways you don't even know to get my family lines understood.

First, our genealogy societies all across the country are pretty much operated by unpaid volunteers so rather than talk negatively about their people or the operation thereof just thank them for their time and effort for being there just for us. Also concerning societies, they are on "bad times" most all of the time. If we would buy the materials, that we could use, that they have for sale it would help tremendously. Maintaining records for all to use. I have been in many libraries, societies and courthouses and always see abuse of the records. The Rutherford County Register of Deeds Office has a large room with the oldest records stored there. You are free to do research in the room unsupervised as you see fit. I have never been in that room when all the books were in order on their shelves unless I took the time to put them up, which I have many times. There are deed records just ripped out of the books and I have been in the roo! m when researchers, just like you and me, have walked out and left the room in a total mess. So we wonder why some places have such stringent rules. We also get perturbed when we are looking for records and the courthouse personel tells us that all those records are at the Archives. I have never been to the NC Archives but I would bet that they have rules to protect the records they have. We should treat every record that we touch like it was the very last copy in existance and in many cases it is. As most of you know I have did a little record gathering and making it available to everyone completely free. I am not the only one that has done this.Many, many people donate a considerable amount time and expense gathering and abstracting material for all to use. Then we have those that ask, why isn't such and such cemetery online. I won't this one online, why not index a year of newspapers and on and on we go. We are not paid, it only cost us time, work and expense to have what we have. All could contribute most don't. The digital camera can be a big bonus in preserving and making available to the public. The problem is the files take up extreme amounts of server space and therefore they just cannot be made available online and they are slow to upload and download on telephone modems. My suggestion is that we use at least a 3 megapixel camera and photograph the records that we have available and let our local societies sell them at a fair price on CD's. They are very readable as they are taken and anyone with the CD can enhance as they see fit. Check my webpage at http://www.rfci.net/wdfloyd and go to the Old Tryon Society page to see what we are doing. I have just completed the year 1928 of a Rutherfordton, NC weekly newspaper that I am sure the society will offer it at $10 to $20 per CD. I know this was a little long winded and a little commercial but I also thought it needed saying. We also have some people that are taken for granted and that is our mail list owners. They get paid all those big bucks just like all the other volunteers for all their work in maintaining a smooth running list. They scold people, like me, for creating controversy so I am asking anyone that has derrogatory remarks to send them directly to me at wdfloyd@rfci.net and anyone that has anything to add to all the noise from me can do it on the list.

FYI for all who are interested in the NC State Archives in Raleigh: I go there weekly to do my family research. Been going for several years now. Most of what you say about it is true. You can take in only paper and pencils and laptops, basically. Copies are 10 cents each for the items which are able to be photocopied. Copies from microfilm are 25 cents each. There are certain hours they are willing to pull items and make copies. Staff there is great but has decreased in numbers with the budget crunch. Please call or check their website to make sure that you know their hours and if they are open when you plan to visit---and that you become familiar with the rules---will save yourself a lot of time and trouble! The Genealogy library on the Mezzanine level of the same building has (on microfilm)all of the states' censuses up to 1920 (only NC soundex), and they have loads of printed resources.

Hi Bill: Thanks very much for what you do for all of us. He has read many cemeteries and put them on line in North Carolina, and copied different marriage, birth records etc., for many of these counties. I do have a five foot thirty inch bookcase with books for everywhere, as well as anything that is published on each family. Some cannot understand why I would purchase so much. I also have 80 CD, of Census records, and well as 100 others that I have purchased to help myself. Ths is quite true.  I started the society here inVallejo, Ca., in 1993, and taught a class every Friday to get things going for two hours.  I therefore could not get my genealogy done.   I am again the Vice President this year, with booking all of the speakers, organizing the three field trips to the archives, LDS and our State Library.  It takes tremendious time, and this past Saturday from 10A to 4P, at Heritage day, passed out fliers about the park and the 1906 earthquake, and about our Society. Many of our people have never been in a courthouse, or the State Archives. I tried to teach them to take along their notebook with full pedigree sheets so those of us trying to help them learn, would see at a glance what we needed to find for them.  They ould come with scraps of paper and thought we should be able to do the job.  I would do the driving and take three at a time, to teach them where these facilities were, and ask $4.00 each for gas and bridge toll.  It is 55 miles each way for us to go to each of these places and two bridges with a toll of $2.00 each, so $12.00 barley covers the epense.  Some would come along with $1.00 and think that this did it. As for the Archives at Raleigh,  You are only allowed to take paper and pen or group sheets there, or at least the last time I was there in 1995, before becomming terribly ill.   You are allowed to look in each box that they bring you, and put in a piece of cadboard and tell them what you want photocopied, after so many copies,  you pay for them and they send it in the mail.  They watch everything, and see what you have when you leave the archives.  Your things are placed in a locker and you have a key for it. The LDS n Salt Lake City is the same.  this might be good to put on the internet as well.  Many of us old timers know what to expect, but the newbies or those that do not attend the Genealogical Societies do not know rules. I get postcards from people wanting all the information that I have on a famly or someone.  They need to be taught that when you write, that you need to send a self addressed stamped envelope and at least say thank you for ever someone is willing to share. If I sent one of my files, there are aprox. 5,000 people on it. at age 71, and not kthe greatest of health some do not understand when I say I will try and photocopy at our local place some of what they are looking for.  I have three ruptured ddisc in my spine and undergo epidurals three times a year in order to walk or sit for whatever little time that I dare.   Betty Heryford Vallejo, Ca. ==== NCRUTHER Mailing List ==== Subscribing: Clicking on one of the shortcut links below should work, but if your browser doesn't understand them, try these manual instructions: to join NCRUTHER-L, send mail to NCRUTHER-L-request@rootsweb.com with the single word subscribe in the message subject and body.

Hi Lynn, I don`t know if we have talked before or not.But I noticed where you live and it is not too far from me!!I live in Durham..And I use to go to state archives on Saturdays.I guess you know Grace Turner?She is such a lovely,caring person.She is probably the oldest researcher there and is there every Saturday.And I love to go to her Christmas parties down in the basement.She has helped me out so much.I use to go into the chat room and her and George Thomas would be there also.They changed the chat room so much,and I wasn`t having any luck with my surnames,I just quit. Anyway,I thought I would tell you that we are practically neighbors. Vicki Scearce __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? LAUNCH - Your Yahoo!

Hi Bill, I couldn't agree with you more. Having visited less than one tenth of the number of courthouses, etc that you have (at a guess), you are right on target! The amount of "destruction" done in the name of research is appalling. One of the reasons I haven't had to go to as many sites as you for my research is because you and others have already done it for me. And, I am eternally grateful! If the genealogical societies can keep afloat by selling CD's of information that was given to them by volunteer researchers, I'm all for it! Many of us find it difficult to travel to where the records are archived. Even if we can do so, having a CD that we can pop into our computers in the middle of the night is very appealing. Thanks for all you do and please, don't ever be shy about "telling it like it is". The truth never hurts anyone. Iris Iris F. Reily ifreily@member.isa.org ~YELTON~List and Message Board Admin.

Yes, I would be interested. And I plan to purchase a copy for my local library and donate it in memory of my sister. I have done this with many books and CD's that I've bought - they really appreciate the donation, it's tax deductible, plus it just feels good! Thank you Bill, you are a wonderful man!

Hello Listers, I wonder if anyone could tell me if the Isaac Holman listed on the 1790 census could have been 'confused' by state boundaries, that is, did Rutherford Co. join the boundary to S.C.? In that time period an Isaac Holman was thought to be in the 96th district in S.C., and wasn't on their 1790 census, but I did see Isaac Holman listed in the Morgan Dist. of Rutherford Co. I know, I'm confused too! :-)) Thank you.
