This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Obituary Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/YZ5.2ACIB/961 Message Board Post: Albuquerque Journal - December 28, 2003 Hugh C. Paxton passed away in Albuquerque on December 25, 2003. Born on April 29, 1909 in Los Angeles, California to Charles and Grace Dorn Paxton, Hugh enjoyed a life filled with many diverse experiences. His interests ranged from his work with colleagues in the field of nuclear physics to bird watching excursions with friends, observing wildlife, writing, photography, and treasured reunions with his brothers and sister and their extended families. Growing up in California, Hugh graduated from Inglewood High School in 1924, was awarded an A.B. degree from UCLA in 1930, and in 1937 earned his doctorate at UC Berkeley under Professor E.O. Lawrence. He married his sweetheart, Jean Nellis Thomson, soon after. Hugh's early work in nuclear physics included cyclotron technology at the College of France in Paris and Columbia University. Following were jobs involving wartime support in New York, Oak Ridge and Philadelphia. In 1948 he accepted a position as leader of the critical ass! emblies group at Los Alamos Scientific Laboratory, where he worked until his retirement in 1976. His responsibilities involved development of peaceful uses of nuclear energy and nuclear reactor safety standards. Hugh is survived by his wife of 66 years, Jean; son Alan and wife Merideth; daughter, Susan and husband Joseph Gomez; granddaughter Jennifer and husband Gustav Verhulsdonck; granddaughter Carrie; brother Donald D. and wife Pat; brother Norman L.; sister Grace and husband Alfred L.(Les) Whear; many nieces and nephews and other relatives and friends. Hugh was preceded in death by his brother Charles N. and by sisters-in-law Anna and Dorothy. A memorial service has been held by the immediate family, and cremation has taken place. Memorial contributions may be made to the Academic Scholarship Program; American Nuclear Society; 555 North Kensington Ave.; LeGrande Park, IL 60526.

Hi Wanda Thanks for the welcome. There are about twelve or so of us researching the PAXTON tree on the SA list - Jesse Paxton who came to South Africa with the 1820 Settlers was the main ancestor ...........We have accomplished quite a mammoth task with each of us contributing a bit here and there. Friends from New Zealand, SA, England etc. who have put time and effort into it. The head of the team is Karen Bullen in NZ ....... E-mail Address(es): bullen@xtra.co.nz However...........there is always a BUT. This family fills in my maternal grandmother's PAXTON family but I have a huge gap regarding my grandfather's mother (I have pics too) who was a lady called Minnie Anderson PAXTON. (She married Captain Alfred Julius SMITH in Kimberley, SA). Her father was a James PAXTON from Berwickshire in Scotland - I somehow think from around Dunbar Haddington yet I know that my grandfather was taken back to Scotland and stayed some of the time in Berwickshire and also near Stirling Castle in about 1906 when his mother was very ill with something like consumption. Any clues anyone? So now compliments of the season to all and may 2004 dig up tonnes of skellies and rellies Thank you Regards Paxie Paxie Kelsey (Mrs) 23 Defiant Avenue, Airfield, Benoni, 1501, Gauteng, South Africa Cell +27 82 956 3354 Home + 27 11 849 9962 email: paxie@global.co.za Fax +27 11 849 6705 Work +27 11 267 2511 email: adriennek@branch.co.za Fax +27 11 388 0701 Researching SMITH, BEST, PAXTON, THECK, LINCK, HENWICK, HILL, KELSEY, DEMPSTER, GREGORY, BROSNAN, BROUGH, GREENER.

Dear Paxton/Paxson/Paxon searchers to this@ line; I was able to spend 3 days at the Tampa/Hillsboro library here in Florida. I found ref: to Edward Paxton/Paxson 3 times; refs to follow with excerpts; I don't know if any of these are the Edward/Edmond/ we are searching for. This as a first name is NOT common in these surname lines.... So the following needs to be followed upon. And I will, but it will, take time. I have looked on the common internet sites and cannot find any data on this LAWRENCE; so will go to the local Mormon library when it opens after 1st of Jan 2004.. THERE MAYBE something in the Microfisch Surname Index, which isnot!! on line.... We need to find a Lawrence with a William; it is my belief after this trip; that Reuben & Nancy Paxtons line is of the English lines; and perhaps out of CT or New Jersey; I cannot find any ref in Maryland records; and have written and e-mailed Dr Kerns<it came back as <demon mailer>@@@ Dr Wilmer L. Kerns Ph.D., author o! f <FREDERICK COUNTY FEE BOOK>. I wrote in 24 Oct, 2003; no answer, sent SASE; maybe hes ill or dead... he's one listing the book for sale......no copys to be found. Which lists Reuben Paxton on the earlist records I can find. 1744..with Nathaniel Thomas, Morgan ap Morgan and Morgan Bryan....so you can see the wish of finding or obtaining a copy of this book..

Greetings fellow researchers,   For many years I have shared my genealogical research with the folks on the COWAN, WIGTON-WALKER, and SCOTCH-IRISH rootsweb lists.    The trail leads from Sterling, in Scotland, to Londonderry-Donegal in Ulster, to    Pennsylvania, the valley of Virginia, east Tennessee and points west.    If your ancestors followed a similar path then some of these documents might be of interest.    I have searched for rare, out of print source materials as both a hobby and an obsession and have offered to make copies for people from time to time.    Because of a busy schedule I will only be able to do so once a year. I have added two new items since last time and they are described with the others below beginning with the most recent history first:   Castle's Woods:    Frontier Virginia Settlement, 1769-1799, a thesis presented to the Faculty of the Department    of History, East Tennessee State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts, by James W. Hagy, 1966, 150 pages.          This covers the families who settled in Russell and Scott counties, Virginia when it was considered the frontier.    Contains information on specific families as well as the farmers, speculators, artisans, and preachers who resided there.    Lots on the Indian battles that were a daily feature of life on the frontier.   Tthe Tinkling Spring:    Headwater of Freedom, A Study of the Church and Her People, 1732-1952, by Howard McKnight Wilson, 1954, Fisherville, Virginia, 542 pages.           The BEST source of information on the Scotch-Irish of Augusta/Rockbridge Counties in Virginia.    Includes the Baptismal Records of the Rev. Craig.    In-depth study of the early families of the Shenandoah Valley.   Rockbridge County, Virginia Notebook, Compiled from articles by Dr. George W.

Printed by M. Kiefer & Co. 1856, 171 pages.           From the preface the following:    "The writer of the Tribute contained in this work, had long desired to see from the Historical publications in Pennsylvania, a vindication of the character and principles of the Irish and Scotch early settlers of this great state and their descendants against reproach, as well as aspersion, cast upon them in some modern publications having pretensions to Historical accuracy...

Shannon, age 90, who assisted in the 1975 reprinting of this book.    He is the last living person who had anything to do with these books and he says they are still the BEST source for Ulster Presbyterian research.    From Lecky the following:    "The lists of names of former generations of Lagganeers, and their places of abode, that are given in the Appendixes, and which NEVER before appeared in print, whilst they may of necessity prove dull reading to those who have no acquaintance with the locality, will not, I hope, be altogether uninteresting to those who bear the same name, or live in the same places....   A History of the Siege of Londonderry and Defense of Enniskellen in 1688 and 1689, with Historical Poetry and Biographical notes, by the Rev.

There is a Joseph Paxton listed in Lurgan Township 860 and 1870 Census Franklin County which is next to the Cumberland County Line? They are attached. I am researching David and John Paxton in Lurgan Township and I am told that Joseph was a cousin by my Great Aunt. I have not been able to confirm anything though. Chris
