Since the recorder acted on behalf of the monthly meeting, the monthly meeting records of births, deaths, marriages, etc., are the records that he or she kept. There would not be a separate set somewhere. In the case of marriages, the recorder copied the original marriage certificate into the monthly meeting marriage book and returned the original certificate to the couple. As for births and deaths, my sense is that recorders usually depended on family members to give them lists of children with birth dates. I've seen a handful of these on scraps of papers, tucked into monthly meeting birth and death records. It's not clear to me how deaths were recorded. I've seen one letter in which a Friend moving from New Garden, NC, in 1852 whose wife died on the way to Indiana asked that her death be recorded in the monthly meeting records there (and it was). It seems likely that in other cases the recorder recorded deaths as he or she learned of them.

I am very interested in proving or disproving the idea that a Daniel Dillon was born in Nantucket. I have seen that and also that he was born in Ireland. If you could find any Dillon's in Nantucket I would love to know.

Hello everyone, I am hoping someone can help me or steer me in the right direction. In 1850 I find a family in the census John and Lydia Burges in Pasquotank County NC. Later I do not find them. I believe this could possibly be the family I have been looking for. I can find them in 1860...under another name. Would this family be listed in the Cane MM? I believe they were excommunicated from the church, moved and changed their names around (using the middle as last) because of the impending war which my ancestor served in. Thanks to any help or suggestions. Debbie

This is for Linda and for the other person who wanted the Paxson's material, I did some checking on the Paxson's yesterday This doesn't have what you want unless you want the entire piece which is about 5 to 8 pages long. If I can get someone to take me to a copier place on the days that they are open. I will be glad to have it copy for you. I don't drive and have no one to do extra things for me. I am truly sorry. It would take me almost two or three days to copy it for you but I would like to wait until after New Years to do it tho. If this is all right with you you can send me your land or snail mail address.

I am seeking info from the Revolutionary War timeframe for JOHNSON and STEWART families in Guilford Co., NC. Specifically, I am lookinf for the parents of Eleanor JOHNSON, named in her grandfather's Will, dated 1789. She is named as "I leave to my grandaughter Elenor JOHNSON..." by Thomas MAJOR, of the Alamance Congregation, Guilford County, NC, 1789. He also names his "son by law George STEWART." I am told that both the STEWART and the JOHNSON families in this area of Guilford Co. were Quakers. On an early map, both of these families lived in the New Garden area of Guilford Co. I believe George STEWART married either Mary or Martha MAJOR, as they are shown in early land records. I don't know which MAJOR daughter married a Mr. JOHNSON and had Eleanor. Thank you for your help.
