I've been stuck for 25 years on my ancestors William Forbes or Forbus and Hannah Johnson. They were married in Gloucester Co (Gallaway) in 1828. They later went to Clermont Co Ohio. I believe that they were part of a group of people who went following Rev. John Collins. This couple went later, but I think the Johnsons went with Rev. Collins. I think most of his followers were from the Egg Harbour area. I do not know what denomination they were. If anyone can tell me, that might help my research. I believe that an Anthony Forbes and Elizabeth Johnson who md in Gloucester Co in 1827 were siblings of Wm and Hannah. There were some land deals in Gloucester Co between Forbes and Joseph Johnson, and also a Blackman or Blackson family. I'm desperate for help. Judy K in Indianapolis.

I have come across the surname Lord used as middle names in two branches of my father's family: John Lord Thompson b. 29 June 1806 John Lord Fenimore b. 14 February 1812 (s/o Mary Meyers and John H. Fenimore) Charles Lord Fenimore b. 15 September 1819 I am intrigued by the use of this surname as a middle name....all in the same general time period. If anyone is researching the Lord family at about this time or earlier, would you please drop me a line. I would like to try to find out if these families connect. There may be a Reeves and/or Myers connection....but it's just a guess....and I've been known to guess incorrectly once or twice before! Thanks for any help anyone can offer. Georgia Whitson

<A HREF="http://carlisle-www.army.mil/usamhi/PhotoDB.html">Civil War Photos</A > http://carlisle-www.army.mil/usamhi/PhotoDB.html I wasn't certain if it was proper to insert a hyperlink, so I did both, insert the hyperlink (which can be ignored) and typed in the url (in case anyone wishes to pursue this interest). This is a link to Photos taken during the Civil War. You can search for any surname. If you find any photos that are of interest to you, you can order copies. I found seven Havens and over 113 Wilsons. I hope this is of interest to someone. I received this url on another mailing list and thought it was too good to keep to myself. Georgia Whitson

There are an estimated 2 million descendants of children sent io 47 states between the years 1854 and 1929. A child sent to South Carolina, adopted and given a different name, could have been an Orphan Train Rider. I rode an Orphan Train in 1917 at the age of 5.

Hi, The title "Squire" was often used in New England during the 19th century, for a man of substantial means in the neighborhood - he might be a man who had a large property, perhaps several farms, and hired a number of laborers, and he would be known as "the Squire", and deferred to and would be one of the weighty men of the town, to whom others might go for advice, or to seek a job. The address for letters would often be: John Smith, Esquire, to show that John Smith was an important or respected man. Maida in Nova Scotia
