Hi Marge, There really isn't a Stokes County Library, instead there are three libraries that belong to a regional library system for rural communities in the northwest counties and receive operation funds from state, county and municipal sources. The three public libraries in Stokes, all three are relatively new facilities: Danbury King Walnut Cove Walnut Cove has some WC items but King is very weak in local history. The best library for local genealogists is the library in Danbury which has a small but growing local history collection (family histories, heritage books from the region, newsletters, cemetery and wills books, etc plus microfilm from the State Archives) in the Hollingsworth Room which the Stokes County Historical Society helped found. The Hollingsworth Room also has museum cases that are of interest. Danbury is a 45 minutes to an hour from Wake Forest Univ.. Danbury Library's phone number is: 336-593-2419. Many small libraries change hours in the summer, Danbury is open for sure M-F during business hours.

Thanks for the offer Catherine. I would like to find the marriage or marriage bond date for my ggg-grandparents. Benjamin Pollard Majors, youngest son of John Samuel, SR and Rebecca Pollard Majors married Eliabeth (?) around 1798, probably in Stokes County. Their first child, Alexander Wilson, was born in 1798 At the time of their marriage, Benjamin Pollard was living on and working the farm of John Samuel Majors, SR. BP inherited most of the farm upon the death of John Samuel in 1802 and got the rest when Rebecca died in 1810. Please see if you have anything on this marriage and also anything on Elizabeth's maiden name and family. James Majors

Her dates are 12 May 1768 - 28 Apr 1832, and she is buried at Bethania Moravian God's Acre. Her death is mentioned in the Records of the Moravians in North Carolina Records 8:4052, where she is identified as "Sr. Catharina Hauser (Peter's wife)". Additional genealogical clues in this entry are the following: "In the afternoon at 2 o'clock was the burial of the late Sr. Hauser (maiden name Boeckel). She was born May 12, 1768, at Reedy Creek, Rowan County [footnote, now Davidson Co.]. With her parents she moved to Friedberg and joined that congregation in 1786. She was married April 10, 1791 to the widower Br. Petrus Hauser and moved to Bethania." I suspect she is the daughter of Johann Nicholaus Boeckel (1741-1822) and Maria Barbara Moll (1744-1825), but there is a possible problem with this in another entry in the Moravian Records, 5:2243. Dec. 17, 1788. "Br. Volk, Sr., has reported that his son Andreas intends to marry Catharina Boeckel, daughter of Johann Nicholas Boeckel of Friedberg, to which there is no objection." Did this latter marriage ever take place? >Daniel Hauser, b. May 17, 1775, d. February 18, 1814, He married Elisabeth >Boeckle, for whom I have no further information. I am reasonably certain that this one is the daughter of Johann Nicholaus Boeckel and Maria Barbara Moll. Her dates are 27 Dec 1773 - 13 Aug 1854, also buried at Bethania. Her second husband was Johannes Schor, whom she married in 1818. Elizabeth Harris state coordinator, NCGenWeb http://www.rootsweb.com/~ncgenweb/

Catherine, Caleb Primm, b. 1790 in Stokes married Mary "Polly" Arney July 15, 1814 in Surry Co, where she was born in 1792. She died in 1877 after having 4 children that I know of. I don't know if Caleb took her back to Stokes or where they lived after they married. Does the Heritage of Stokes County have any further information on Caleb Primm, like parentage or birth and death dates? I'm not really sure I have the right Mary Arney that married him.

Can anyone tell me if the family of JOSEPH MILLER appeared in the 1860 Forsyth Co., NC census. He might have been married to a LUCY or to an ELIZABETH. His children (in the 1850 Forsyth Co. census with Lucy) were: Jonathan, Edwin Thomas, Joseph B., Louisa 7, Calvin C., and Sarah K. Jonathan, Edwin Thomas, Joseph B., or Louisa Miller might be married and/or in separate households by 1860. Anyone researching these families? Sincerely, Mary

Hi, I'm looking for information on Delia Hall born 1832 in Stokes Co. NC. In 1870 she was living in Lee Co. VA with her husband Alson Smith born in 1835 in Guilford Co. NC. They had several children; Mary Angelina (1856-1929 born in Guilford Co.) Avery W. (1858- Guilford Co.)Adiran (1860- Guilford Co.) Alfus (1862- Guilford Co.) and Alma (1864- Guilford Co.) Mary Angelina married John Henry Seymour (1851-?); they had James Alson (1887-1954) born in Forsythe Co. NC, Charlie, Jess, Delia, Nann and Maggie. James Alson married Velma Estelle Windsor (1895-1951) born in Yadkin Co. NC. Would anyone have anything about these people? I found Delia mentioned in the 1870 Lee Co. VA. Census because an aunt said she thought Delia was born in Scott Co. VA and I started working my way westward and foreward and there they were in VA in 1870 having left NC at some point. I need help. Thanks for any input. Clara _______________________________________________________________ Get Free Email and Do More On The Web. Visit http://www.msn.com

Thanks to Catherine Leinbach for offering to do look-ups in Stokes County. My grandfather, ISAAC S. BOYLES, has a home town listing of Pilot Mountain, NC on the 1895 commencement program of Wake Forest College. He was a student from 1890 to 1895, according to WF alumni records. I'm wondering if his family could be listed in your book. I would especially like to get the names of his father and mother. My primary mission is trying to find what happened to my grandfather, ISAAC, in his later years. However, I am also interested in his early years. There is no trace of him after he left Waco, Texas in 1918.
