Hi All, It's been awhile since I sent an encouragement message. Our list has become rather quiet. Although there are a few who have been actively posting lately and I certainly do appreciate them immensly. I have put a new message on the Rootsweb Queen message board to encourage new folks to join. I know we oldies (not in age, but those who have been on the list a long time) sometimes feel like we have exhausted all our resources. But I am convinced that out there somewhere are Queen kin who are just sitting on some tantalizing bit of information. So, I will try to get the word out, through other sources, that our wonderful mailing list is a great place to share Queen info. How about doing a Roll Call for the month of July? I will start the ball rolling and please feel free to post your outline, query or (hallelujah) new info. Carol

Hi all, My name is Laura Queen. My father was Clyde Bevington Queen. His parents were John Avery Queen and Laura Jane Phillips. I believe from what I have found on the message boards, that Avery Butler Queen and Sara (unknown) were John Avery's parents. That is as much as I know, I would really like to find out a bit more about my grand mother Laura as she is the reason I am Laura. I do know who my dads brothers and sisters were. Pearl, Anna, Sharon, Leroy, John"Jack", Charles,Doug, and Dean(sister). I am just getting started, but I welcome contact from anyone who can help, or if they are related, I'm just having fun.!!

Hello group! While I don't research the WV Queens (My Queens are the Rutherford County bunch) I have run across some Queens in Cleveland, Ohio while researching Minches. A second cousin of mine ( a Minch) married a Queen. Out of curiosity I looked for Queens in Cleveland and found a lot of them. I previously posted the Queen marriages and deaths I found in Cleveland and I hope it helped someone. Now for my own curiosity again; did these Cleveland Queens come out of the Gnatty Creek line. There's a fair probability that the Rosemary Queen who married James Minch was Catholic (he is) but I don't know for sure. --Phil Minch--

Unfortunately, I don't have the Queen surname. I had a 37 panel test done for my surname but I don't think that will help. I know the Washington Co, MO Queens are from the Cornelius Queen line which originated with the Gnatty Creek Queens. If someone can give me the names of the Iredell Co Queens I will look through my research to see if I can find a connection. I have not seen any line from the Gnatty Creek group migrating to NC, but that does not mean it didn't happen. Once I get the names I will do my best to see if there is a connection. I would very much like to see the DNA results for the Gnatty Creek group. Can anyone help me with this? Thanks, Billy ------- Original Message ------- >From : Rolla Queen[mailto:rolla.queen@charter.net] Sent : 6/25/2007 6:18:11 PM To : papanohair@mac.com; billycurtisjr@tnni.net; QUEEN-L@rootsweb.com Cc : Subject : RE: [QUEEN] Queens in Missouri OK.

Our Queen families were and are Catholic. They migrated from Md to KY to Indiana.

Just thought I would post this website in case there are new folks who are not aware of it. It is the Missouri Birth and Death Records online searchable database. http://www.sos.mo.gov/archives/resources/deathcertificates/#search and the Kentucky Vital Records database http://ukcc.uky.edu/~vitalrec/ Carol

I am really glad to see several members who can help to expound on this family. Although the DNA testing done, so far, does not indicate a relationship between my James Campbell Queen and the VA/WV Queens I have never ruled them out as the ancestors of JCQ. James' son William eventually moved to Cardwell, MO. And several of the others moved to MO, ARK and OK. CarolQ

OK. Based on the responses, perhaps it is time to revisit the Queens who don't match Group 1. Clearly, the Group 4 Queens (tracing back to Charles of Maryland, and also known as the Gnatty Creek Queens out of West Virginia, right?) are the second largest group we have DNA for. And clearly, Cornelius of Meigs Co., Ohio, who ends up in Missouri traces back to this group. I am still struck by the fact that most of the rest of the people in the congregation that move to "Bellevue" Missouri originate from Iredell County, NC, where all my Queens are at. And we know that Francis Queen does not match that group closely. But even if we rule out a DNA male heritage, that does not mean that these families are related documentarily. Perhaps Francis was an adopted child and that explains why I hit the brick wall with him - Queen in name only? So the question is for the Gnatty Creek Queens - is there any documentary evidence for any connection to Iredell County, and the Presbyterian migration from Iredell County to Missouri? Any thread of evidence that any one from your group, perhaps named Francis, is unaccounted for? Can you explain the convergence of Queens from Gnatty Creek with the settlement of Iredell County folks in Missouri other than chance? Let's forget the DNA for now. What does the record say. For Carol, I have always thought that her James Campbell and our family were connected. The Queens and Campbells are thick as thieves and long interconnected in the Brushy Mountain to this day. Even if the DNA does not match, we might find other explanations that connect this family, which might eventually explain an adoption or other extramarital event explaining the lack of male lineal connections. So let's scratch out heads and look at all the straggler samples that don't match with anyone else, and see if we can realistically rule out any documentary connection with any of these groups. And are there samples fro which we expected a match with a documented group, and things did not turn out that way? Tell me where I am wrong on any assumptions. To repeat my earlier questions: 1) Is there anyone from this line represented in the DNA study? Kit numbers please 2) I am trying to deal with coincidence. With so many people mentioned in this migration from 4th Creek in Iredell County, NC, to Missouri, along with a whole bunch of Queens, it seems to stretch belief that these Queens had no connection with my Queens in the Brushy Mountains of NC, in the NW corner of Iredell County. So what does the DNA tell us about this group of Queens that went to Missouri - and if there are no Queens represented in the DNA study from this group, and you guys are related to them, then what does your DNA say in our current study. thanks Rolla

I am totally baffled - cannot figure it out. I (like you I think) do not believe the story about accepting a commission in the British Army, etc, etc. Having said that - how the heck did Charles come up with the money to purchase that many acres in WV??? I was hoping for a DNA connection to one of the other branches but thus far it has not occurred. ============== On Jun 25, 2007, at 7:18 PM, Rolla Queen wrote: > OK.
