Hello! I just got this off of one of my genealogy mailing lists, and thought I should pass it on to others who may be doing genealogy. I can't prove it, but it is something to think about, especially a certain someone of you who works in a stationary store....(envy envy) Ha!

Anyone who is interested in this program can purchase it (I believe) through the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (Mormons). Also, many of the Mormon church buildings have "Family History Centers" which are open to the public. Millions of names & info, from all over the world, available right there on CD ROM, or microfiche, and they will send out microfilms of more items available for a nominal rental fee. All this info is free, with the exception of the microfilm "rental". Go check it out! In about 90 minutes, I went back to the early 1600's on one family "branch" into the Netherlands!

Not sure if you got a response to your email about "Ancestors" but maybe this will help.

Anderson County Deed Book A-1 page 188 21 May 1821 William Scarbrough to Tobias Peters, John Scarbrough, Caleb Low, Robert Scarbrough, Spencer Keith, James Richmond, and Henry Peters, trustees of bethel meeting house for the Methodist Church of Anderson and Knox Counties, for the good will and feeling I have for the cause of religion, 1 acre and 26 poles in Anderson Co., on north side of Clinch River, passing through the head of a spring, to a stake near the road, to the beginning. Reg. 11 Apr 1821 Wit: Thomas Peters William Scarbrough Robert Scarbrough (Tobias is Tobias Peters who married Elizabeth Rachel Scarborough, daughter of James Scarborough and Rachel Wood. Tobias Peters, Jr. would be too young. Henry Peters is probably Henry Peters, Sr., although Henry Peters, Jr. would be old enough. Thomas Peters is the son of Henry Peters, Sr.) Jerry Bryan ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com

Anderson County Deed Book A-1 page 84 1 Jan 1803 James Scarbrough of Anderson County to Tobias Peters of Anderson County, for $1.50, 120 acres in Anderson Co., west side of Clinch River, near the river bank, running up the river, including the meanders, near top of ridge. 120 acres part of 600 acre tract that James Scarbrough now lives on. James Scarbrough does not warrant should an older and better title take said land. 7 Dec 1803 wit: Daniel White James Scarbrough (James Scarbrough was the father of Elizabeth Rachel Scarborough, and hence the father-in-law of Tobias Peters.)

The following census entry appears in the 1850 Anderson County census. HN 183 PG 25 Scarbrough, William 56 m farmer VA Margaret 56 f VA Tobias 26 m farmer TN Francis M. 17 m farmer TN Manervy J. 16 f TN I have long suspected that Margaret age 56 is Margaret Peters. I can't prove it (still can't), but I did find Margaret listed on David Scarbrough's web site http://users.ticnet.com/scarbrough/ as Margaret Peters. (This is a fine site, by the way. It focuses on the Scarbroughs, but there are many Peters from Anderson County who are listed.) I wrote to David Scarbrough to ask for sources. He reported that he had had a computer crash a few months back, and lost much reference material. So I was just wondering if anybody out there had a reference for this Margaret to prove that she is a Peters. My suspicions that she is a Peters are based on the following. 1. The Peters and the Scarbroughs moved together from Greenbrier County, VA (now WV) to Anderson County, TN in about 1797. Margaret is married to a Scarbrough and was born in VA. 2. Margaret had a son named Tobias. It seems reasonable to suspect that Tobias Scarbrough might have been named for Tobias Peters, who was part of the Peters-Scarbrough migration in 1797. 3. There are three England families living in HN 180, HN 181, and HN 182, with Margaret maybe-Peters and William Scarbrough living in HN 183. HN 180 is John England and Jane Peters. This argument is a little weak, however, because I think that Jane Peters is not a Greenbrier County Peters. I doubt that Margaret would be the daughter of Tobias Peters. He married Elizabeth Scarborough in 1797 and Margaret was born in 1794. I am not aware of a previous wife for Tobias. However, he was 27 years old when he married Elizabeth Scarborough, so a previous wife would be at least possible. Margaret could be the daughter of Henry Peters, Sr. mathematically. Henry Peters, Sr. married Mary Wiatt in 1788. But I have never seen a Margaret listed as a daughter of Henry. I have suspected that Henry and Tobias are related -- brothers or cousins or something. If Margaret were to be Henry's daughter and if Margaret named a son after Tobias, then it would strengthen the argument that Tobias and Henry were related. Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated.

I've came of the Orphan Train Migration in the The Seattle Time on April 30, 2000. I've was wondering if somebody ever heard of it from 1850-1929 from N.Y. to the west. Stop I'd do not know or have the passagener list of the adopted kid's. If their is a how do some one go about in looking for one or such a list.

I am the grand-daughter of "J." Sylvester Peters, or "Jay" Sylvester Peters (or perhaps something like "James" or John") who is from ? England, and married Anna Victoria Olander in or around (perhaps) Poughkeepsie, N.Y. in or about 1909. Does this mean anything to you?
