Re the Ships List, the numbers in bold print at the end of the name listing are book reference and page no. Give these to me and I will send the name of the book. There are too many pages to put on mail. Denver, John

Hi List, I wasn't aware of the list not accepting drag ons or attachments. Anyone needing the list of ships, please let me know, with E-Mail and it will be sent. Denver, John

Hi Debbie, I have placed the url for this book in my "favorite" list. I don't really have any relatives in Texas that I know of; but some folks did come to Texas back awhile ago and the family lost contact. Maybe I can find relatives. The copying must have been one heck of a chore. I really appreciate your efforts in doing this and making it available to all. Thanks a heap, Gordon Reid Hale Grand Prairie, Texas

>From another list, if you have family in Texas? Just letting yall know that I loaded the Biographical Souvenir of Texas to my site and a volunteer made an full name index ! I was astonished at all the work she did. This book is familiar probably to most of you, I don't think there is very much from far far south Texas or far west but east/north and much of central Texas people are included. It was published in 1889.and is some 944 pages of biographical info. There are about 15 pages with a blacked out no. but they will be up in just a couple of days. The scans on them were scrambled so I will go redo them tomorrow. http://www.rootsweb.com/~txfannin/s.html Susan Hawkins, Fannin County CC http://www.rootsweb.com/~txfannin/ Debbie :)

I am new to the list and this is my first post. My 3rd g-grandfather was Burton Reid who was born abt. 1810 in Alexander Co, NC and married Nancy Oxford abt 1830. They had children: Margaret, James Samuel, William J. (my line) and Andrew Newton. William J. died October 1902 in Montague Co, TX. I have hit a brickwall in finding the parents of Burton. There were so many Reids in northwestern NC and I have no clues to go on, other than his Mother might have been named Margaret. Any help is appreciated. Thank you, Carol Ansley

MARY HOOPER was the daughter of ELIZABETH CHAMBERS HOOPER and JAMES HOOPER. They were originally from VA and moved to DeKalb County, GA. The mother died in 1840 and in her will she lists her daughter as MARY REID, "now of the state of Mississippi." We would be grateful for any information. Dover2

>From another List, Question: Does anyone know what it means on the 1891 census under column 4 for "Houses Inhabited" when it says "W1/2" or W 1 1/2 over 5? ------------------------------------------ Houses And Institutions. 83. The term "house" is defined in Instruction No. 41. The material of which it is constructed, whether wood, brick, stone or composite, will he indicated by the initial letter, "w" for wood, "is" for brick, "s" for stone and "c" for composite, which latter may be rough castor constructed of two or more materials. 84. The number of houses erected on the lot or place of habitation, whether in construction, vacant or inhabited, should be entered in each case along with the material of the structure, by placing the number over the initial letter. Thus: 1/b denotes that there is one house and that brick is the material used in its construction. If there be a vacant house on the lot which is not fit for habitation, no record of it should be made. Care must be taken to make the entries for the three classes of houses in their proper columns. 85. Institutions are as described in Instruction No. 42, but will also include buildings in which there are no households, occupants or oven caretakers, such as churches and schools. The special or legal name of each must be given in column 7, and the number of buildings which compose it in column 8. 86. Each house or institution may be occupied by one or more families or households, as these terms are used in Instruction No. 42, and if occupied the number of families will be entered in column 9. 87. In column 10 an entry will be made of the number of rooms in every occupied house or institution for each family. If there be two families in a house of six rooms the number of rooms for each family will be entered as 6/2, or maybe 4/1, 2/1; and if there be only one room for two families the number for each will he entered as 1/2. In every such case the upper figure will denote the number of rooms, and the lower figure the number of families. 87a. Column 11 refers to occupied institutions only, and in it will be entered the number of inmates of whatever class they may be, but not including the persons of families, officers and employees. If the institution is a college, a hospital, an asylum, a prison or any like place, the entry for it will show the number of persons for whom it furnishes accommodation -- for education, for treatment, for detention or for any other object.
