My Great great grandfather was John B. Southerland m. Mary Blount. Their children were: Vivonce b. 1854 d. 18 July 1883 Betty b. 1846 Emma b. 1856 John b. 1859 Wallace b. 1863 Mary L. Robert George D. Vivonce was my great grandmother who married Luther R. Millard. He was a teacher at the Kenansville Acadamy. Their daughter, Sallie Osborn Millard Smith was my grandmother. She was born in Turkey, NC, but think that they resided in Kenansville. I only recently discovered my father's family in the Mt. Olive, NC area. Before that I had never met anyone in his family. If you are from Mt. Olive, you might know the Williams and Smith families, who are also my relatives. My Smith family were from Indian Springs and they lived on a plantation their called the Peele House. I also have Pipkin, Peele, Smith in our family, but know the least about the Southerland family. I would appreciate any information you could give me. Thank you so much, Ruth. Sue

Dear List Mom, I'm not complaining; I'm laughing. It's world wide. Look how quickly we'd become the owners of foreign coinage. What would the bank say when we turned up with thousands of dollars in one dollar bills for deposit? Would we be investigated for counterfienting? Pay for a couple or three baskets of groceries at the grocery store? What would their reaction be? Their cash drawers aren't made to hold that many one dollar bills. What about the IRS? They always want more than their fair share of everything and I'm sure they'd want a cut out of this. If we have only $6 and six stamps invested, what are we going to have to write off as business expenses when it comes 15th of April. After all, we're in a legitimate business and as such we will be expected to pay taxes on our profits. Oh, and if I wanted to go down to one of the fancy car dealers, wanted to pay cash for the most expensive vehicle on the lot......how long would it take to count out the one dollar bills to pay for my purchase? Personally, I don't want my name circulated in such a fashion; neither do I want the people to know where I live. What if someone I personally know ran across the speal, called me, laughed in my face about falling for the scam. Don't worry, List Mom. I won't complain. All I want is information about Richard Martin who died in your county in 1786. He left a wife Franky and seven children from two marriages. Well documented to a point. Did he or did he not serve during the Rev. War? Will furnish additional details for anyone who is interested in doing a little research for me in Wayne Co. Worth an investment of $6 and 6 stamps? You bet but the guy forgot to include the cost of the envelopes, the sheetz of paper be they white or dark, plus the awful taste for having licked the envelops to seal them. mbm

Dear List Members, The how to turn bucks.... message slipped through the open gateway between the list and the board..... Please do not post your unhappiness on the list regarding he message. This will continue the problem. Just delete it and go on with what we love doing...genealogical research in Wayne Co., NC. Kathleen Burnett List Mom

Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/wUB.2ACE/775 Message Board Post: HOW TO TURN 6 BUCKS INTO 6 THOUSAND! (WORLD WIDE) 1. WARNING: READING THIS WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE! I found this on a Bulletin board and decided to try it. A little while back, I was browsing through newsgroups, just like you are now, and came across an article similar to this that said you could make thousands of dollars within weeks with only an initial investment of $6.00! So I thought, "Yeah right, this must be a scam", but like most of us, I was curious, so I kept reading. Anyway, it said that you send $1.00 to each of the 6 names and addresses stated in the article. You then place your own name and address in the bottom of the list at #6, and post the article in at least 200 newsgroups. (There are thousands) No catch, that was it. So after thinking it over, and talking to a few people first, I thought about trying it. I figured: "what have I got to lose except 6 stamps and $6.00, right?" Then I invested the measly $6.00. Well GUESS WHAT!! Within 7 days, I started getting money in the mail! I was shocked! I figured it would end soon, but the money just kept coming in. In my first week, I made about $25.00. By the end of the second week I had made a total of over $1,000.00! In the third week I had over $10,000.00 and it's still growing. This is now my fourth week and I have made a total of just over $42,000.00 and it's still coming in rapidly. It's certainly worth $6.00, and 6 stamps, I have spent more than that on the lottery!! Let me tell you how this works and most importantly, why it works. Also, make sure you print a copy of this article NOW, so you can get the information off of it, as you need it. I promise you that if you follow the directions exactly, that you will start making more money than you thought possible by doing something so easy! Suggestion: Read this entire message carefully! (Print it out or download it.) Follow the simple directions and watch the money come in! It's easy. It's legal, and your investment is only $6.00 (Plus postage) IMPORTANT: This is not a rip-off; it is not indecent; it is not illegal; and it is virtually no risk because it really works!!! If all of the following instructions are adhered to exactly, you will receive extraordinary dividends. PLEASE NOTE: Please follow these directions EXACTLY, and $50,000 or more can be yours in 20 to 60 days. This program remains successful because of the honesty and integrity of the participants. Please continue its success by carefully adhering to the instructions. You will now become part of the Mail Order business. In this business your product is not solid and tangible, it's a service. You are in the business of developing Mailing Lists. Many large corporations are happy to pay big bucks for quality lists. However, the money made from the mailing lists is secondary to the income which is made from people like you and me asking to be included in that list. Here are the 4 easy steps to success: STEP 1: Get 6 separate pieces of paper and write the following on each piece of paper "PLEASE PUT ME ON YOUR MAILING LIST!" Now get 6 US $1.00 bills and place ONE inside EACH of the 6 pieces of paper so the bill will not be seen through the envelope (to prevent thievery). Next, place one paper in each of the 6 envelopes and seal them. You should now have 6 sealed envelopes, each with a piece of paper stating the above phrase, your name and address, and a $1.00 bill. What you are doing is creating a service. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY LEGAL! You are requesting a legitimate service and you are paying for it! Like most of us I was a little skeptical and a little worried about the legal aspects of it all. So I checked it out with the U.S. Post Office (1-800-725-2161) and they confirmed that it is indeed legal. Mail the 6 envelopes to the following addresses: Note: Make sure you put the correct amount of postage stamps on your envelopes. Other countries may need more stamps so be correct on how many you put. And remember your business will be running throughout the world so when you start posting messages or emails to people this will bring in thousands of dollars from all over the world. So now, you have money flowing \ in from countries! That's how I became so successful in this business. Mail the 6 envelopes to the following addresses: #1)Allan Franklin III, 417 Holly Hill Court, Tallahassee, Florida 32312 #2) Greg Park 507 Battle Bend Blvd. Austin, Texas 78745 #3) Chris Spillas Jr. 409 Faith Dr. Mississauga, Ontario L5R-3Y7 Canada #4) Ritchie Allen. 332 Portsmouth Road, Flaxmere, Hastings, New Zealand #5)#2)Bischof 753 City view dr. Las Cruces, New Mexico 88011 #6)Baltensperger 1576 Eagleville rd. Tiverton, Rhode Island 02878 STEP 2:Now take the #1 name off the list that you see above, move the other names up (6 becomes 5, 5 becomes 4, etc...) and add YOUR NAME as number 6 on the list. STEP 3: Change anything you need to, but try to keep this article as close to original as possible. Now, post your amended article to at least 200 newsgroups. (I think there are close to 24,000 groups) All you need is 200, but remember, the more that you post, the more money you make! This is perfectly legal! If you have any doubts, refer to Title 18 Sec. 1302 & 1341 of the Postal lottery laws. Keep a copy of these steps for yourself and, whenever you need money, you can use it again, and again. PLEASE REMEMBER that this program remains successful because of the honesty and integrity of the participants and by their carefully adhering to the directions. Look at it this way, if you are a person of integrity, the program will continue and the money that so many others have received will come your way. NOTE: You may want to retain every name and address sent to you, either on a computer or hard copy and keep the notes people send you. This VERIFIES that you are truly providing a service. (Also, it might be a good idea to wrap the $1 bill in dark paper to reduce the risk of mail theft.) So, as each post is downloaded and the directions carefully followed, six members will be reimbursed for their participation as a List Developer with one dollar each. Your name will move up the list geometrically so that when your name reaches the #1 position you will be receiving thousands of dollars in CASH!!! What an opportunity for only $6.00 ($1.00 for each of the first six people listed above) Send it now, add your own name to the list and you're in business!!! DIRECTIONS FOR HOW TO POST TO NEWSGROUPS: STEP 1: You do not need to re-type this entire letter to do your own posting. Simply put your cursor at the beginning of this letter and drag your cursor to the bottom of this document, and select ''copy'' from the edit menu. This will copy the entire letter into the computer's memory. STEP 2: Open a blank ''notepad'' file and place your cursor at the top of the blank page. From the ''edit'' menu select ''paste''.

1820 Wayne Co. US Census Index Film M33_83 David tornton page 485 Thomas tornton page 485 I found a Thomas on the 1820 US Census Index, Wayne CO. census. Did not a Thomas Thornton/Tornton for 1800 Wayne Co.find Sometimes I get upset with the census. My 2 great grandfather was listed as a Porker instead of Parker on a NC census. First names are spelt wrong and then when you find them, they look perfectly clear and can't understand why they were not reported right. Sometimes it is the census taker and other times it is the translator. June June
