Hello: I originally posted this information on the Hillsborough (NH) County Genforum, and thought to re-post it to a number of lists that I subscribe to, in the hope that it may be of use to others. 1.

I realize that this is probably a wild goose chase, but I'm getting desperate. My husband's grandmother was Lizzie Page,1882-1917.(possibly Elizabeth ?) She died when my father -in-law was a small child. He was told that she was born in Huntsville,Alabama before moving to Texas. We know that she married in Texas in 1908, but not just when she got here. The only information we have on her is the name of a sister and two possible brothers. No parents. sister was Pattie Mae Page bro-Walter Page bro.-Sam Page. We know all three are buried in Lamar County,TX so we assume the family came from AL to TX together. I know this is not much to go on, but it is all we have . I have tried to locate a 1890 or1900 Madison County Census to try to locate the family, but have not been able to find either census. I have also written the court house a few months ago in Huntsville, but recieved no answer. Does anyone have these names floating around in their tree ? Or a hint of what do to next to find info in my Lizzie ? Appreciate any help ! MaryMagnuson Lamar County,TX [email protected]

Not to sound racist, but this weekend I went to the Census Bureau to find Page's in Dillon County, SC in 1920. I find that there are a number of African-American Pages but there were no more then 3 White families with the surname Page. What happened to the White Page's? Did they migrate to another part of SC or out of the South altogether?

Hi....just a reminder. I'm STILL looking for any info on Joshua Page m. Bersheba Phelps October 5, 1837 in Early County, Ga. I believe he was from the Carolinas or Virginia. Ring a bell for anyone? Thanks. Pat

Pioneers of Callaway County, Missouri: John SCOTT, of Campbell Co., VA., married the widow of LITTLE PAGE, whose maiden name was ELIZABETH MATTHEWS. They had 2 children, Matthias and Martha. The latter died in VA. and the former was married in 1804 to ELIZABETH WAYNE, of VA. They settled in Montgomery Co., KY., where they lived 25 years, and then, in 1829, they came to MO., and settled in Callaway Co. They had 13 children. After the death of his 1st wife, Mr. Scott married ELIZABETH BARNES, by whom he had 1 child. He died in 1852, but his widow still survives.

Hello, Does anyone have any information on the family of Mary PAGE, died 1865 I believe about the age of 25, in Tamworth, NH. She was married to David J. SANBORN. They had a son George. Thanks so much, Denise

Yes, I have Pages in Indiana. Can trace back to 1763 with sources. Would be glad to share. Don't have any Hirum that I've come across, but I don't always have all the siblings for each generation, and have not traced them, ( except for one brother of my line's Nathaniel Page: David Page of Mass., Haverhill, NH and Lancaster, NH. Found a 4 generation booklet about his line which I have not examined closely yet.) Nathaniel's son, Moses, left Lancaster, NH in 1815 with his family and moved to Chautauqua Co., NY, He is in the census there of 1820 and 1830. Then his son, Michael (Micah) Bradford Page moved on to Coshocton Co., Ohio (1840 and 50 census). Michaels's third child, Moses, married in 1853 in Spencer, Owen, IN. Moses settled in Paris, Edgar, Il., but Moses' son, Josiah settled in Terre Haute. His son, Clifford, went to Martinsville, Il. Four of Clifford's children settled in Indiana, my father being one of them, so there are lots of relatives here in IN. Think there could be a connection? I can go back from Nathaniel three generations earlier to 1580, but I have not positively linked them yet: Samuel (SC and MA), his father John of MA, and then John Sr. of MA who came to Watertown, MA. from Denham, England in 1610.

Listmembers / Cousins, As you were notified a couple of days ago, RootsWeb is now a part of MyFamily.com.

I think I've mentioned before on the maillist that there were many of that name from Sweden who settled in the midwest. e.g. My aunt Henrietta md Ray Bloomquist, whose father was Raymond Axel Blomquist. However clerks managed to spell those names as Axcel, Eccsel, etc. One of his earlier relatives was Axel Leonard Blomquist born Lsarueda, Sweden. At 11:49 AM 06/23/2000 -0700, Dolores C.

Does anyone have Pages in Indiana? I am back to Hirum Page and was curious if I had any cousins out there. Would love to share info. Dorene

For what it is worth....to those of you who have Axelheath/Exolheath PAGE of Goochland Co., VA as your ancestor. I was going through some of the brochures that we've collected in our trips across this great country and found the following in a booklet about Pella, Iowa....a community founded by Dutch people in the mid-1800's. This may not have any bearing on our Axelheath/Exolheath's name, but for what it might be worth I'm sending it on. Some time ago, I reported that Axel was reported as being "Nordic"....from the book "First Names First" by Leslie Alan Dunkling, Universe Books, New York. The following is not from this book....it is from the booklet mentioned in the previous paragraph. Following are the first two paragraphs in an article in it. "Dress From the 'Land of Axel'" "One of the most unusual Dutch costumes seen during our Tulip Time Festival is that of the 'Land of Axel'. Former resident Emily Dieleman is the owner of one of the oldest and most authentic in the sea of costumes seen during the festival. Her costume was given to her by a relative in The Netherlands and dates from over a century ago. The 'Land of Axel' as it was known is in southern Zeeland. It was once an island village. The area was settled by French Huguenot refugees who were farmers and craftsmen as well as groups from neighboring villages of Walchem and Zuid-Beveland who brought Protestantism to a predominately Catholic region." NOTE by DCR: This is not to even intimate that our Axelheath/Exolheath PAGE was from this area, but I thought the above was interesting and worth sharing. Have any of the rest of you seen any references to Axel or Axelheath as a first name....the origin or whatever???? Dolores

What part of NC are your Page's and Brown's from? My Page's and Brown's are from Robeson County, NC.

Found in newspaper clipping from The Troy Banner, Bradford County, Pennsylvania, Year 1846 "Thurs. 3 Septermber 1846--Married--in this borough, on the 28th of August, by N. M. Carnochan, Esq., Rev. John T. Page and Miss Rozena Dickinson, both of Whitesville, Alleghany County, N. Y." Hope this helps one of my cousins out there.

Without boring everyone with too much info, perhaps some cousins out there will recognize some names and we can share info. Some of the names are not my direct line, so I don't have complete info on all, but I'm listing them to make the connections to share as much family info as possible with my cousins. These families were in the Polk/Pasco/Hernando/Sumter Counties by about 1865. Many limbs of this tree remain in these areas. They were in Georgia from about 1800 before that and prior to Georgia they were in NC and SC (getting a little fuzzy here). If any of the names/lines seem familiar, please drop me a line. I do have additional info/dates, just too much to list here. Thanks. Bill Brown BROWN : Pearson (born abt 1800) & Elizabeth ? Brown (children) Pearson D., Sarah, Green M, Thomas & Mary Green M.

For all of you who think you are descended from Col John Page, you might get help in proving such by contacting the Page-Nelson Society. They are presently creating a database of known ancestors and might make a connection for you. I suggest you contact their editor of the Society Bulletin. He can give you info on how to proceed.
