Does anyone know the dates on Daniel Boone Pyles (1868 - ?) and Francis Burgess his wife? Also on their son James Alford Pyles and his wife Lida W. ? ........ Any information will help..... Thanks Bobi bobette@mail.prostar.com Puyallup WA

I know very little about my great grandfather, Enoch (Sank) H. Pyle (1886-1987). Mother told me he was a fine man who had a very happy marriage with Mary Carlotta (Fanny) Cole (1887-1946). They had four children Zefria (my grandmother)1889-1984, Emma L. (1899- ?) Theodore (?) and Francie Pyle (?) I remember Aunt Francie very well as a child, as I used to call her...she had flaming red hair, which she dyed of course...like Lucille Ball and thin penciled in eyebrows, always dressed with fashion. Most of the pictures that I ever saw of Enoch and Fanny, they were hugging and smiling...and mother said when she was a child she always loved seeing grandfather Sank and grandmother Fanny, life was happy in Arkansas, even though they were very poor. Great grandfather Enoch died at his home in Elk Ranch AR, Mary Carlotta, I am not sure.... I would really like to know how far back I can go with Enoch H. Pyles ,,,,and find out if his family always lived in such a poor state economically.... bob Puyallup, WA

First of all I would like to thank Sara for starting a list. This may be what I need to finish a project that I started many years ago. What a joke! Research is never finished as "Genealogists never die, they just find another line." For those that are just starting and need help, I have much data on the Pyle and associated families in my notes and have a copy of Howard and Jane Pyle's book, "The Pyle-Pile Family in America, 1642-1980," I would love to do look-ups. My search concerns the parents of William Pyle, born 1775 in PA. who married Mary Jones or Janes of Virginia in the latter years of 1790. They had many children but the most notable were Zachariah, Robert and Thomas Pyle. They were born in VA, the others born after William and Mary settled in Ross County, Ohio ca 1808. My g-grandmother said my gg-grandfather Robert Pyle was born in 1800 in PA., rather than VA. Gg-grandfather Robert married Martha Malone in 1822 and my g-grandfather William Pyle was born in Ross county Ohio. The family then moved to Eugene, Vermillion County IN. G-grandfather William came overland to California in the early 1850's, followed by g-grandmother Mary Mack Pyle, son Darius and dau. Laura Eliza in 1854 by way of the Isthmus of Panama. The family settled in Solano County Ca. Sorry for making my first posting on the new Pyle list so long, but the more information we have the more we can help each other! Associated names are BRATTON, DOODY, JONES, MACK, MALONE, REA, ROCHE, Ron Pyle Angels Camp, Ca.

First message...test

I was contacted by a new Pyle cousin. I can't prove that we are cousins but we are bound to be somewhere along the line. I am at a wall so maybe we can help this person. Her name is Ellen Pyle and she lives in Iowa. She is looking for Sylvester Pyle born in Iowa, Aug 17 1846. His parents are John Pyle and Lavina or Elvina Morris. The only place that Ellen is able to find Sylvester and family is on the Indiana 1850 Census. Ellen does not have internet access or email so I'll give her snail mail address. Ellen Pyle Rt 3 Box 49 A Albia IA 52531 I hope someone can help her get over or under her WALL.

Seibert Pyles is my paternal grandfather, his grandfather was possibly Henry Pyles also of Monroe Co.
