Just checking in & holding up my hand for the Roll Call - tho' I'm new to this list, I'm not new to genealogy & being on-line. I have 2 main lines in this county: HOWELL: My great grandfather, (according to info from aunt & genealogist Folks Huxford) came from Wake Co, NC down into GA. JOHN CASWELL HOWELL b ca 1820 NC, supposedly Wake Co. d 1883 Milltown, Berrien Co, GA CASWELL HOWELL mar PERNEICE WOMACK -in my aunt's info!! mar ARRENA WOMACK - in Huxford's info ; PERNEICE MORING according to info in at the LDS. Some of the Census gave her birth place in NC & some in GA. I'm beginning to be more comfortable thinking of wife as PERNEICE MORING, as CASWELL HOWELL had a bro, BARNEY B. HOWELL who also came down into GA w/him - & the bro's wife was SMITHY JANE MORING. (Also I tracked down every WOMACK I could & the only PERNEICE WOMACK was married to someone else!) CASWELL & PERNEICE (MORING) HOWELL settled first in Thomas Co, GA....were there for the 1850 Census w/4 children: SARAH; BURRELL; PIETY; PEYTON They were in the househole of MARY ALLEN who had 2 daus, FRANCES & ELIZABETH....I've not found if there is a connection yet, but believe that there is. When my grandfather, HAMPTON ANDERSON HOWELL, b 1851 was a toddler, the family moved into Berrien Co & CASWELL HOWELL became an ordained Baptist minister, serving several churches in the area. If anyone has any connection at all to these HOWELLs or has heard anything that might connect my CASWELL HOWELL back to Wake Co., possibly to his parents & siblings, I would be so grateful to hear about it! BRUCE - PETER BRUCE (Sr); PETER BRUCE (Jr); PETER ELI BRUCE; [ALLEN BRUCE; ROBERT M. BRUCE; JOSEPH B. BRUCE; WILLIAM ARTHUR BRUCE (my grandfather - all these in the brackets were moved on into Iredell/Alexander Co, NC. --- (Hi to Sally & Sharon.) Thanks for your time in reading this! <g> Sarah Howell Studstill

Brenda, do you have any information on JAMES K. ADAMS (married Margaret Laxon) and/or his son CLAUDE COLUMBUS ADAMS b 1884 Weakley County, Tennessee married MYRTLE HOOD c 1914? She was the daughter of CHARLES H HOOD, Jr whose father CHARLES HENDERSON HOOD is thought to have been born c 1815 in WAKE COUNTY, NC. He migrated to Weakley County, Tn and thence to Dyer Co, Tn (c1830). I am trying to learn more about the family of CLAUDE ADAMS. Thanks so much Darlene and (Ben Herron, thanks for e-mailing Brenda's e-mail to the list which I accidentally erased)!

There are a lot of clues to where and when these people lived etc. I guess, but that's not what I would call Genealogies. To bad they don't have all of these peoples ancestors and descendants listed. Of course if all the books did that we wouldn't have anything to dig for would we? Mary Knight --------------847B6BB496A68DE6C61CC3E5--

Hello everyone. I just wanted to warn everyone about a virus that is running around a lot. It comes as an email attachment. The email say's check this out and it has a vbs.freelink attachment. When you click on it it will place pornography on your desktop. That's not the worst part. It will send itself to everyone in your email contact list. So not only will you have it on your computer. Everyone in your contact list will think that you are sending them porn. I was able to avoid it because I had the latest virus definition update on my Norton Antivirus and it caught it. If you do get it, go to http://www.symantec.com/ns-search/avcenter/venc/data/vbs.freelink.html?NS-se arch-set=/389da/aaaz_g8G_9dac97&NS-doc-offset=0& It will tell you how to remove it from your system. Then send out letters to your friends and business associates explaining that you are not a pervert and are not sending them porn on purpose. Good luck, Roy Edward Brown, Jr., D.C.

I am researching the family of Zadok Daniel, born July 8, 1768 in Virginia, died after September 7, 1805 in Wake County. Zadok was the son of John Williams Daniel. Zadok Daniel married Elizabeth Lewis, daughter of James Lewis and Susannah Anderson, on July 26, 1792 in Granville County. Their daughter, Susan L. Daniel, married Thomas Cottrell on June 14, 1815 in Wake County. I am interested in any connections to this family. Christa Pitcock [email protected]

Vol. 4, Minutes. There are several more entries involving the building and repair of the Goal and Courthouse which Reuben SEARCY was involved in. The last entry with Reuben SEARCY's name involved is May 7, 1783 so it looks like these entries were of a period of more than ten years. Under Districts. May 5, 1768.

There is one particularly long Petition that Reuben SEARCY drafted to the Court of Granville County March 23, 1759.

I have already covered some of the other SEARCY'S listed, but since this is getting so long I will look for any other information and make another post later on the remaining names I have not mentioned.

Hi list, I am one of your new people. I know that I am researching the following: Adams, Philip Sr. came to Wake Co. from Halifax Co. Brassfield Ward Hockaday All b. before 1800. My Philip Adams Jr. left Wake Co. and landed in Weakley Co. TN. around 1835 and died bet. 1840-1850. One of Philip, Jr. brothers went to Tn and some of the Ward children. Rest stayed in Wake Co. I have been a member of the Society for about two years but just signed up for the list. Thanks for being there. Also did the flooding this past summer do very much damage to the records in Raligh? I hope to come, meet and do some research with new found "cousin" this year. I am a full time RVer so you might hear and then nothing for a few days. We plan to leave our present spot on the coast of Miss. on the 21st and I do not know when I will have access to a phone. I do get back when possible, so be patient.
