Dear folks lets us keep all the mail concerning the CD off the list and also lets try to "keep our Cool" and not say bad things to one another. Let me set the record straight right now: My cemetery website will remain online as far as I can see in the future and will always be free. The USGenWeb Archives still has permission to upload to the Archives anything that is on my site. I messed up and didn't request everyone to give the feedback to my personal E-mail and I can see that I have clogged up the list too much. Sorry, Bill

Hello, Green and Rutherford Co. researchers! I'm just wondering if anyone on either list has a really good grasp on the Green family in Rutherford Co., NC. My Lovelace family is tied to the Greens, and I have found them to be a really tough family to work on, there being so many different branches. I would love to correspond with someone who has a good working knowledge of the family. At this point in time, I am particularly interested in the family of Lewis Green who, in the 1850 census, was living with his family next door to Nancy Lovelace, whose household contained several Lovelace teenagers along with an Elizabeth Green age 26, a Louisa Green age 18, and a Mary Green age 5. It has been proposed that this Elizabeth Green is Elizabeth Lovelace Green, wife of Lewis Green who took out a marriage bond 12 Oct 1842 for his marriage to Elizabeth Lovelace (bondsman was Thomas Green). This younger Lewis Green has also been offered as a son of the elder Lewis Green and his wife Lucy. Lucy Green, wife of the elder Lewis Green, has been offered as a possible daughter of Nancy Lovelace, whose husband may have been Benjamin Lovelace, brother of Asa and Nathan Lovelace, who are known to have been the original Lovelaces to settle in Rutherford Co. in the early 1800s. As you can see by all the "possible"s thrown out above, there is much to be learned in the relationships of this Green family and the Lovelace family. Is there anyone out there in cyberspace who could shed any light on this Lewis Green family???? Thanks in advance for any help! Peace, Part of the Tree, Greg Lovelace

Your material has helped me so much. And yes... I would by the CD. Also... keep in mind... there are lots of genealogists out there who do not have access to a computer (as hard as that is for us to believe). So there would be a market there as well. Not to mention libraries. Take care and thank you so very much for all that you do. Emma

Sounds good! I'd buy the CD. W. D. Floyd wrote: > This is just a little off base but you are the ones that can give me the feed back.

Thanks a lot for any information you can give me. Still looking for my BABER`s here and down in South Carolina. Vicki Baber Scearce __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Ronald or anyone who owns this book, My great great granfather's William G. BROWN, tombstone says he was born in Rutherford County, NC in 1816. Is there a reference to a BROWN family in the county at that time in your book? Yvonne Calvin Boone County, MO

Articles from CONFEDERATE VETERAN mag's., dated 1916-1917. These are not directly from Rutherfordton but they are North Carolina soldiers and I hope you fine interesting. ONLY LIVING CONFEDERATE TWINS A.M. and EDWARD CURRIE were born at Lumber Bridge, N.C., Sept.6, 1840 and both now live on a plantation where they were born. EDWARD CURRIE enlisted in June, 1861, in Co. F., 24th North Carolina, RANSOM'S Brigade, was wounded at Sharpsburg and surrendered at Appomattox. He has always been greatly interested in military affairs and was presented a gold-headed cane by the Lumber Bridge Light Infantry a few years ago. One of his twin sons is a Spanish War veteran. A.M. CURRIE was first stationed at Fort Moultrie, Charleston, S.C. and was then transferred to Co. D, 51st North Carolina, CLINGMAN'S Brigade and won a name for fearlessness under fire. He takes great interest in the social and political interests of his town. He is unmarried. I hear commercial interests are mutual and their home life beautiful. --- DAVID GREEN TILLY was born in Stokes County, N.C. Nov. 16, 1834 and departed this life on July 9, 1916. At the age of 8 years he went to Mountain City, Tenn. In 1860 he was married to MISS ELIZABETH BARBARA DUFF. He served in the 6th NC Cavalry during the war. In Sept. 1865m he removed to Illnois. He was a member of the Methodist Episcopal Church, and for several years served as Sunday school superintendent in Clay City, Ill. Having no children of his own, he took an orphan boy and girl and reared them to manhood and womanhood. Comrade TILLY was of generous and sympathetic nature and worthy to be classed with the upright. He is survived by his wife, three brothers and one sister. --- NORTH CAROLINA U.D.C. by MRS. JOHN D. LEAK, Wadesboro, N.C. I am happy to tell the readers of the VETERAN that the U.D.C.'s in the Old North State are ever doing a fine work and fully alive in the interests of the order. In Feb., MRS. R.E. LITTLE, our State President since last Oct., visited High Point, where she was beautifully entertained and made an address on LEE- JACKSON Day. From there she went to Raleigh to appear with a committee before the legislature in the interest of pending measures. She is now on a visit to the historic town of Fayetteville, where an Old Ladies Home , in which the Daughters are interested, is to be located. We are trying heartily to cooperate with schools and teachers in the use of proper textbooks and in stimulating interest in Southern history and research. { WOW!} The Children of the Confederacy in Charlotte, under the able leadership of MRS. H.D. BURKHEIMER, are doing a splendid work. Pitt County came to the front several months ago with the dedication of a handsome Confederate monument at Greenville, which stands as a lasting memorial to the bravery, the heroisms , the sacrifices and sorrow of the South's gigantic struggle of 1861-65. I hope to be able to give to you some interesting information in regard to this wonderful order of noble women in oue State, whose very name, the Daughters of the Confederacy, is dear to our beloved Southland. --- [ What is the U.D.C.doing today in Rutherfordton ?

I have been reviewing a Lincoln County estate case from 1871 and one of the papers is signed by G.W. Logan--looks like either J.P. or C.C. of 9th district.

To the person looking for Permilia Padgett: I looked at the State Archives in the Pre-1914 WPA cemetery survey for her namye and didn't find it, but I did notice that in the transcription of the Racepath Cemeter, there is a blank or Unknown stone beside Milton. Perhaps this is her grave.

Please inform me if the book by Grifin covers the period prior and to about 1785. I am trying to find information about the Joel Vaughn/Vaughan family who lived there during that period. Info is quite illusive except for the Rev Pension file which details his service while in residence there and details one move within Rutherford Co itself. That move, still in the Co, to a place on Greene River. Mentions a campaign against the Indians prior to other Battles and he appears on the 1782 Tax Roll. Mary sedlacek@nwol.net

The guys name is Tom Smith. I don't recall the phone # to call..I lost the # but Glenna Kinnard has it...

Thanks! Sincerely, Pamela L. Oester
