Hi Jerry & thanks so much for writing to us. Since I'm not sure whether or not you have subscribed to our Poythress-List of emails, I'm sending this to your email address, too. I've just found Havelock, NC in Craven County, between New Bern & Morehead City, southeast of Raleigh & of Greenville, for those of our List not looking at a map. Not far from Ocracoke on the Outer Banks. I was quite interested to learn of your family line, since it is not one I recall us knowing of before. I've been hunting thru available resources to see if I can help on your family line, and I need a little more help, please. 1. Do you have any idea of what years your grandfather, Charlie Poythress, would have been alive, or in about what year he died? I found on the public record source, the Social Security Death Index at RootsWeb (http://ssdi.rootsweb.com/ ) the entry re your father's death, showing that he was born in September of 1914, and died in 1998 in Grifton, Pitt County, NC. From your father's birth year, I'm figuring his father, Charlie, must have been born sometime in the roughly 1870-1895 period? That's a pretty wide range, so I'm hoping you might have some idea that would trim that down some. 2. Any idea of the name of your grandmother, who your grandfather divorced after your father was born? 3. And/or if you know the names of any siblings of your father's, that could help find the right family for your grandfather in the Census records of NC. Again, thanks so much for your email & I look forward to hearing more from you. Barbara Poythress Neal (or BPN for short) 4/21/06 Jerry poythress wrote: > I am Jerry Poythress youngest son...
