How many wives did he have, and did all of the children belong to just one? I have two wives, two children and much confusion <G> Thanks, K.

I never lived in Union Co but all my ancestors did. I haven't even been in the county but know more about it that I know about my own hometown of 30 years! Amazing what we call "home".

Parrott Williams is the son of the Rev. Joseph Williams, b. 1737, d. 1825, m. to Martha Parrott, d. 1825, siblings: Reuben, 1754, William, 1774(?), Lemuel, 8/10/1787, Hezekiah, 1774, Newbern, ?, Rebeccah, between 1783-1806, Martha, ?, Joshua, ?, Henry, 1769. These dates seem so strung out for the children, makes me think Parrott had more than one wife. Parrott, b. 1774, d. 1840, m. Rhoda Herring. I show three children born 1794, 1794 and 1800, and Parrott Jr. born 1806. I would love to know who the second wife was. Anne

Chris, Also do you know who Parrott Williams belongs to? Is it Joseph Williams? Sandra

Hello Everyone: This is Bill Weddington. My continuing search for Surname information has a need to identify some old birthdates of relatives who were born in either Union or Mecklenburg Counties. All of the births were prior to 1910, but only back to about 1890. Can someone identify an on-line location which can identify this information. SSN data records does not work. At last resort, I would have to write to the State Bureau of Archives. Any help. Thanks, Bill W.

Don't remember who all Simon Wentz is related too, but know that his family has been there forever...so it seems, from our phone conversations. dawn

There is a book titled, The Doster Genealogy by Mrs. Ben Hill in memory of her husband and completed by Wadsworth Doster. The copyright is 1945. From that secondary record, I have the following in my file: Chloe Doster was born about 1786 in what is now Buford Township, Union County, NC. She first married Vangal (Solomon) Simons who died about 1820. She married second Tom Dillon. Chloe Doster was the sixth child of James Doster and Lydia Springer. James Doster was born 14 August 1735 near Winchester, VA and died ca 1818 in what is now Union County. Her mother was Lydia Springer who James Doster married about 1764. James Doster has a will filed in Mecklenburg County, Will Book C, page 39. James Doster was the son of Thomas Doster, emigrant, who was born about 1695 and died ca 1748. Thomas Doster came from Wurttemberg and settled in German Town, PA. He left a will which is filed in Will Book 1, Circuit Court of Frederick County, Va. In the Heritage Book prepared by CGS, there is a article about Chloe Doster marrying Thomas P. Dillon. I do not have a personal connection with DOSTERs, DILLONs or SIMONS. This is information that I had collected and thought I would pass to you. Good luck with your research. -----Original Message----- From: Marie Parks <mpjx@nbank.net> To: NCUNION-L@rootsweb.com <NCUNION-L@rootsweb.com> Date: Tuesday, May 04, 1999 3:59 AM Subject: Re: [NCUNION-L] local residents >Hello, >I just picked up your message.

Well, who all is he related to that a bone marrow or such could help? Joy

For those of you who live in Monroe and know Simon Wentz, he is fighting for his life with bone cancer. He helped me and my CO cousin find some very key parts and pieces to our very messed up KING line at the Oak Grove Baptist Church Cemetery...just a few years ago. We have never met him, but know from the "many" phone calls that he is a really nice person... Please keep him in your thoughts. Simon will know in three months whether he will make it or not... dawn in warm AZ....

I live in CA but my children's paternal PHILLIPS are from Union Co to Burke Co NC ... Charlene

I have a photo of Lon Hasty and Maud(e) Thomas. Looks to be from the early 1900's. I have a Maude Thomas who married Clyde Floyd- although the were married in 1937 and this photo looks to be much earlier. I'm looking for clues. The photo came from my grandmother who was a Floyd who married a Holmes. I also have two Maness' who married Hastys - so I believe the connection is there I just haven't figure itout. If you have any ideas and would like to see the photo I can e-mail you. Thanks Mary
