You have the "genealogies" of Guilford and Randolph counties correct. Roughly, the eastern third of the two was part of Orange County before 1770, and the western 2/3 was part of Rowan. What was known as the "Trading Path" ran basically east to west across the northern part of Randolph County.

Does any one have information on Paul B. Lindley b. about 1877 in Indiana, wife Mary R. (surname unknown) b. 1877 IL? The censuses list him as a Friends Minister. He served in Raisin, MI, East Goshen MM, OH, Hughesville MM, PA, Gray MM, IN and Urbana or Urband MM. I suspect he is Paul Bertram Lindley son of George M. Lindley and Sarah Winters Woody. Can anyone help me prove this? Joy Roos Wisconsin

I have just received a journal compiled by my G Grandfather Thomas Kirk Bufkin from about 1913 to 1920. It appears it was typed later and some of the dates may have been misread. If you have any records that would help I would be very grateful. Here are some quotes from the journal. "Thomas Kirk, my mother's gr father, was born the 26th day of the 9th Mo. 1744. Hannah Cadwallader was born the 16th of the 12th Mo. 1747, and the said Thomas Kirk and Hannah Cadwallader was married agreeable to the order among Friends on the 21st day of the 10th Mo., 1773" He then lists their children and the dates they were born. Among them is listed "Thomas Kirk b. 21st day of the 3rd Mo. 1781, d. 26th of the 7th Mo. 1815" He then says "Thos. Kirk (Mother's father) was born in York Co., Penn.,21st day of the 6th M0. 1787 and was married to Sarah Taylor,23rd of the 11th Mo. 1809. Moved to Henry Co., Ind in 1831, from Clearfield Co., Penn." He then lists their children including his Mother Mary Ann Kirk b 8th Mo. 26th, 1817. She married Warner Mifflin Bufkin. My dilemma is was Thos Kirk born March 21 1781 or June 21 1787.

I am going through some of the land transactions that I looked at while visiting NC two weeks ago. The following is from a book called: Randolph County North Carolina Deed Abstracts Books 1 thru 5 1779-1794 Volume I by Barbara Newsom Grigg Rt. 2 Box 458 Ashboro, NC 27203 I have made a note to myself that Abraham Elliott, Jr. seems to have lived on Polecat Creek--also Joseph Elliot and Abraham Sr. and John Elliott Here is the entry that I am hoping someone can interpret for me: 5;19, 11 Sept. 1792---James Alexander to Daniel Dawson, both of Guilford County, for 150 pds. 150 a. in Randolph Co. being 1/2 the tract whereon his father, George Alexander formerly lived on Polecat waters and both sides the Trading Road adj. Benjamin Beeson & Jacob Elliot, crossing the Old Orange Co. line. Signed James Alexander, Wit: John Coe, Isaac Causey It is Jacob Elliott that I am interested in....and this seems to narrow down just exactly where he lived better than any of the land transactions that I have looked at. Is there a place that I can look at a map to see where the Trading Road and the Old Orange County line would be? I have a map that shows me the area where Polecat Creek is located. It seems to be just west of Ashboro. Was Ashboro on the Trading Road? I have looked at the animap images of the creation of Guilford and Randolph and it is somewhat confusing. It looks to me as if Guilford was formed from part of Rowan and part of Orange with both giving up some of their territory and then Randoph was created from Guilford. Is my interpretation correct? It is my gut feeling that my Jacob Elliott bought land in 1764 in Rowan County....then lived in Guilford and finally Randolph without ever moving off of his original property on Polecat Creek. Is my thinking valid?

I have old letters dating 1785 written from Philadelphia by Abraham Tuckniss. In them, he mentions Aunt Betsey and Old Mr. Morris who is in failing health. He also mentions a "Lydia". Well, when I started researching my roots, I found that Ann Tuckniss was my g g g grandma. ( I do not know Abraham's relationship to her.) Well, I saw in the Quaker records that Ann was the daughter of Robert Tuckniss. Well, I saw a Robert Tuckniss married a Mary Dawes who was the daughter of Abraham Dawes and Mary Harry Dawes of Whitpain. They had seven daughters of which one was a Lydia and one was an Elizabeth who married a MORRIS. Interestingly, George Washington and Lafayette stayed at the home of Dawes "Dawesfield" after the Battle of Germantown. What interested me was that my grandma said she had some ancestor who danced with Lafayette and my grandma gave me the birdcage earrings she wore when she danced with him. Now, I am wondering if I am related to these Dawes. Abraham Tuckniss worte to his sister Mary. The time period is such that Abraham Tuckniss could be the son of Robert Tuckniss and Mary Dawes. But, when I wrote for the book on Dawesfield , they had in it that Mary married a James Egan, I think. Do you have information on the Morris clan and on the Dawes connection? Have you ever heard the name TUCKNISS? Ann Tuckniss and William Hopkins married contrary to discipline in 1795. I do not know the details ; this is just what was recorded in the Philadelphia Monthly Meeting Record. I appreciate an info you can give me.

Hi list; Searching for info on Letitia M. Heston, b. 1791, most probably in Baltimore. An exquisite example of her needlework, dated 1821, Baltimore, exists in Ohio. She was also known to be a needlework instructress and her name is embroidered on at least 3 or 4 young girls' samplers as their teacher. She moved with some family members to Centre MM in Clinton County, OH and then to Springboro, OH where she married late in life to Zachariah Lounes (Loundes). They are buried in the Quaker cemetery there. Hoping to find more info about her life in the east, possibly as a needlework teacher, as part of an ongoing documentation project about Ohio samplers, their makers and teachers. Sincerely, Jan Thomas Textile Specialist & Independent Researcher Colorado Springs

I have old letters dating 1785 written from Philadelphia by Abraham Tuckniss. In them, he mentions Aunt Betsey and Old Mr. Morris who is in failing health. He also mentions a "Lydia".

Well, I saw in the Quaker records that Ann was the daughter of Robert Tuckniss. Well, I saw a Robert Tuckniss married a Mary Dawes who was the daughter of Abraham Dawes and Mary Harry Dawes of Whitpain. They had seven daughters of which one was a Lydia and one was an Elizabeth who married a MORRIS. Interestingly, George Washington and Lafayette stayed at the home of Dawes "Dawesfield" after the Battle of Germantown. What interested me was that my grandma said she had some ancestor who danced with Lafayette and my grandma gave me the birdcage earrings she wore when she danced with him. Now, I am wondering if I am related to these Dawes. Abraham Tuckniss worte to his sister Mary. The time period is such that Abraham Tuckniss could be the son of Robert Tuckniss and Mary Dawes. But, when I wrote for the book on Dawesfield , they had in it that Mary married a James Egan, I think. Do you have information on the Morris clan and on the Dawes connection? Have you ever heard the name TUCKNISS? Ann Tuckniss and William Hopkins married contrary to discipline in 1795. I do not know the details ; this is just what was recorded in the Philadelphia Monthly Meeting Record. I appreciate an info you can give me.

Subject Class: 974.961 K2 Film Notes: No film notes for this title. This means that it is not available on microfilm I have found that many of the New Jersey meeting records were not included in Hinshaw's books, but have found that the FHLC does have a great many of the original records available on microfilm. Finding them can be a little difficult as they are often to be found by looking under the different towns in the county. On the FHLC, under Burlington County, Church Records is the following: Topic: New Jersey, Burlington - Church records Titles Church records, 1693-1871 / Society of Friends. Upper Evesham Monthly Meeting (Burlington County, New Jersey : Orthodox) Early church records of Burlington County, New Jersey / Meldrum, Charlotte D Monthly meeting records, 1678-1942 / Society of Friends. Mount Holly Monthly Meeting (Burlington County, New Jersey : Hicksite) Monthly meeting records, 1804-1915 / Society of Friends. Chester Monthly Meeting (Burlington County, New Jersey : Orthodox) But when you bring up the topics for Burlington County, in the upper right hand corner is a box "View Related Places". By clicking on it, you will get a listing of towns/localities in Burlington County that the FHLC has records on. Look under each town to see what church records are available! My ancestors seem to have had itchy feet and moved around Burlington Co, NJ & Bucks Co, PA a lot. Thank goodness for certificates of removal!! Pat B

Thanks for the overwhelming response for information on Jacob Lamb. Instead of replying to all I'll just say a big THANK YOU to all for your help. Thanks everyone Judi _msjudi756@aol.com_ (mailto:msjudi756@aol.com)

I have used the CD, I bought it 4 or 5 years ago. The CD contains scanned images of Hinshaw's books, and has an every name index as well. I don't regret parting with the $$ for this CD.

Genealogy.com = GPC (it's their online site, along with Clearfield Co. and Genealogy Warehouse). I agree that the CD is a great way to go. I've really benefited from having it, myself.
