    1. Re: [PRUITT-L] Larania?
    2. The nearest we might make connection is thru the Pruitts because, Soloman who was Rev war soldier came to Cumberland Co Ky. (Burkesville) early 1800's he had a son named Ephruim/Ephraim born abt 1780's who married Laraina who said she was born in Georgia she states this on a 1850 census but some say could be VA or Ga or Pa on census. I believe by the Pruitt travels that they married or if she was Indian as some believe, then her beautiful name could have been something like la rain ee I think it was Georgie and I have pictures of 2 of her daughters (can you receive email attachments, ?? let me send you the daughters pictures and see if you can see a resembleance. Larainia married by 1810 prob. Also on the Bond side, do you know any of the male Bond line of the Bond sisters. please give me the names. My Bonds were James C. b/1830/32 John B. b/1834 Elzie/Elgia Bond b/1837/39. claimed to be born in Cumberland Co. Ky.or Clinton Co. no known parents, James d/ OK, 1811, John D/ Christian Co /Hopkins Co Ky 1918 Elzie d/ 1921 Logan Co. Ky. on the Keen side James Bond m/ Kessiah/Kizzie Keen daug of John and Sally Keen John was son of Nickolos Keen who came to Cumbeland Co from NC. they had male Frances naming patern in this Keen family. On the Riddle side my Elzie Bond m/ Laraine Jane Riddle who was dau of James Madison Riddle and sarah Pruitt (dau of Ephraim/Larainia) J.M. Riddle was son of Joseph and Rhoda Monk Riddle, Joseph was son of william the tory and Happy Rodgers Roberts Riddle. The other connection to Pruitts is that John B. Bond m/ caroline Pruitt youngest daugter of ephruim/Larainia. So Elzie was m/ to their grandaughter and his brother John was m/ to the youngest daughter of Pruitts. Of course everybody kept naming Larania/ Rhoda/ and Hilpa/ Happy. so easy Riddle and Pruitt family to follow. Hope to hear on pictures. Lois
