Lois, Thank you for your reply. Jacob's DOB I have is 11-1-1798 and DOD as 12-11-1865. I obtained these dates from the cemetery list of Beulah Methodist Church Waco, Cleveland County, NC. I have Polly's birthdate as the 11-13-1785 and I'm not sure from where I obtained these dates. I doubt that Polly was 9 and gave birth at that young age. I would think 12 or 13 would be more believable. How would I get a copy of the Pension papers? I would be tickled to death. Do you have any proof that Polly was married to the Mr. Wolf? I haven't been able to find anything. I do have the Dedmon info from Leroy Dedmon that Polly was married to Horbert Proctor and had another son Mark Dedmon Proctor about 1806. I have written everybody I can find to find Jacob's father. Polly and her parents were living in Rowan County at the time that she had Jacob, and there was another Jacob Wolf and a Michael Wolf on the census of 1790 of Rowan County. This Jacob Wolf moved to Ky by 1799 as there is some info another lady gave me about land patents of that date. So you see this peeked my curiosity as to maybe this other Jacob Wolf was the Father. Do you know of any stories as to who the father could have been or if there was a marriage to a Wolf? I would love to have the info you have. Are you related to any of my ancestors? Thank you and take Care, Melanie Malone

Looking for info about Philip Logan, b. in 1760 in Rowan (now Iredell) County. He was a fife major in the 4th Continental Line during the Rev. War. Believe he may also have been in Capt. James Houston's North Carolina Rangers in 1780. Trying to find out who his parents were and whether he had any siblings plus anything else that might be helpful. Thank you very much. Arnold Logan dslogan@home.com

Looking for JOHN REED born 1746 m. LAVINIA WILLIAMS in Rowan Co. also a SHADRACK WILLIAMS possibly connected to a WILLIAM WILLIAMS same time frame. There could be a connection to COLEs , JOHNSONS, LOCKS, or RUTHERFORDS. Any info would be appreciated. HPitt46@aol.com

Whitewolf, I have found a very long list on the web of Dedmons and Deadman the name was changed from time to time. The Dedmon in my family was married to a Pickelsimer in Tenn. and north Ga., At this time I do not have my program working but I do know it was on a Pickelsimer web list... may be Dennis Pickelsimer. if you can not find it e-mail me, and i will try to find it for you Sandra ROWANROOTS-D-request@rootsweb.com wrote: > Subject: > > ROWANROOTS-D Digest Volume 00 : Issue 40 > > Today's Topics: > #1 Re: [RowanRoots] Barger/Bolch-Boli ["BARGERHAUS" <bargerhaus@msn.com>] > #2 [RowanRoots] Fwd: Wolf and Dedmon [Whitewolfe0510@aol.com] > > Administrivia: > To unsubscribe from ROWANROOTS-D, send a message to > > ROWANROOTS-D-request@rootsweb.com > > that contains in the body of the message the command > > unsubscribe > > and no other text.

Melanie, I'm sorry, I don't have much information on your Wolf. The father in my data is simply referred to as Mr. Wolf. The son, Jacob, has a birth date of Dec. 26, 1784, different from yours, which would have made his mother, Polly, about nine when she had him. This birth date for Jacob comes from pension papers filed by his grandmother, Hannah. She gave the birthdate of Polly as Nov. 13, 1786 and Jacob as December 26, 1794. I doubt that Polly was nine when Jacob was born. Perhapes someone has transcribed something incorrectly. I do have a lot of information on Polly Dedmon Wolf and her ancestry, if you are interested.

Sandy, I have a questions about your Abel Alfred Barger who married Sarah Alice Workman. I have been trying to locate an Alfred Barger who was born in NC, or that part of NC which is now TN in the late 1700's. The earliest information I have on him is that he moved from Knox Co., TN to Gibson Co. around 1830. He had been married twice, but I don't have the name of either wife. I know that I am grasping at straws, but I suspect he was one of the German Bargers of Rowan County. He, and several generations of his family lived near my own Bargers in TN who were descendants of George Henry Berger/Barger of Rowan County. If you or your brother-in-law could shed some light on this Abel Alfred Barger, I would be very grateful. Ray, One of the descendants of the Alfred Barger I am trying to track down in western TN married a Yount. I don't know if there is any connection, but I will take a look and see what I can find out about her.

Stephanie, I don't know if your dates is necessarily "wrong." I'm of the impression the Neptune made several crossings. Here's *some* information online (though granted, not a huge amount). http://genealogy.org/~palam/ships.htm I've not yet located full passenger lists, though possibly there are some online. Here's another url that lists records submitted by people concerning specific surnames...though subject to the usual errors. Perhaps it will be of some help as well: http://palam.org/ia_index.htm Hope this helps, Sandy teylu@home.com ========== Conquest Music wrote: > > Hi Ray > Sorry, me again.

What are you trying to do? Preserve the photo by laminating it or keeping the water based ink from running should it become wet? I would recommend the second if you want to mat and frame the image to display. I started using a photographic lacquer on film prints to protect the surface of the print from small scratches and fingerprints. It works just as well on inkjet prints and does protect the ink from running or smearing. You should be able to find this at moderate to larger camera stores especially if they also deal in darkroom equipment and supplies. I have also found it in some art supply stores. Scanning ahead I see questions about color retention of images. I asked a printer rep at one of the computer stores in town about inkjet color longevity and he explained that the ink generally does not show appreciable fading for approximately 20 yrs. Also some of the lacquers contain UV inhibitors slowing down the fading process some and come in glossy and matte finishes. I hope this might help some. Jim

Thanks, Ray, I have Abel Alfred Barger who married Sarah Alice Workman. I don't know anything about them, though. Pretty sure my brother in law has the Barger info.

Dear Sandy, I think the given name for Casper Bolch most likely came from the old German practice of giving children a saint's name, usually as a first name followed by the name, sometimes also a saints name, by which the child was actually called. His full name was Johan Caspar Bolch. According to tradition, Caspar/Gaspar was one of the Three Magi (the others being Melchior and Balthasar, which also were used as given names in German families). The name also gets transmuted to Jasper. The Bolch family came from the Vosges Mountains region in Alsace-Loraine according to a notation in an old family Bible. The Barger family in Lincoln County, NC was not related to the Berrier/Berger/Barger family in Davidson County. The Lincoln (now Catawba) County family descends from Simeon Barger, of English extraction. He was a Quaker and came to Lincoln County from Berks County, PA. Most of his descendants, though, did marry Germans! Best regards, Ray Yount ________________________________________________________________ YOU'RE PAYING TOO MUCH FOR THE INTERNET!

Dear Stephanie, I have not been able to determine if there is a connection between the two Miller families you mention. It is interesting, though, that both use the name Frederick. According to family tradition, John Miller who married Christina Bolick in Lincoln County, was the son of Frederick Miller. Many family accounts say this Frederick Miller was the son of Wendell Muller (Miller) in Rowan County, but this is just wrong. The descendants of Frederick, son of Wendel, are well accounted for. The Frederick Miller, father of John who married Christina, has also been said to have been the one who was in the NC Assembly in 1778 from Surry County. I can neither prove nor disprove this. John Miller and Christina Bolick did have a son, Frederick, though. Best Regards, Ray Yount ________________________________________________________________ YOU'RE PAYING TOO MUCH FOR THE INTERNET!

Hello, I'm new to the list and a descendant of Rev Samuel Powell Smith of the Fishing Creek Baptist Church. He Amelia Martain (d/o Dr Robert Martain and Amelia Wright) in 1825. Any connections out there ? Malinda Jones

Hi Ray Sorry, me again. I see that the Bolich's came over on the Neptune. The Barrier/Berrier folklore is that we came over on the Neptune in 1727 (yr must be wrong) and Capt Wilkinson steered the ship. I finally decided that this information came down to us (verbally) from the Valentine Leonard side of the family as this info was true for this family only I believe the year was 1746. But just in case,you wouldn't happen to have a list for the passengers of the Neptune which brought the Bolch family would you?

Hi Ray I have Frederick with land located on headwaters of Farmers Creek (Abbotts Cr) adj to Adam Grimes. This land deeded to Frederick's (Grimes) grandchildren. I also have Frederick with land on Bushey Fk situated and "adj to Moravian line" and sometimes described as "Surry line". I believe this to be the same Frederick but have no proof. ( I do see Daniel Waggoner has land also on Farmers Cr and Bushey Fk). Then I have a John Miller located on Muddy Creek which I believe to be close to the Moravian property. Do you think this Frederick (close the to the Moravian line) & John Miller on Muddy Creek are part of the Wendell Muller line???

Hmmm....this is interesting. I have Bargers connected to Bolicks (aka: Bolch) -- one of whom is a CASPER Bolch. ;-) These are all defunct Tryon Co/ later Lincoln County lines, with migrations/spillovers into surrounding Catawba, Caldwell, Alexander...think some may be down in Cleveland counties, etc. The line came down from PA, having come to PA from Germany. Wonder if use of the first name "Casper" comes from the surname? Casper isn't in my direct line, but I show him as: Casper Bolch, born: 26 Dec 1756, Exeter Twnshp, Berks, PA died: 27 Jul 1834, Lincoln Co, NC married: Maria Magdalene DEAL; 28 Dec 1779 (sorry, I don't show where) NOTES: shown as "Gasper" in 1790 Lincoln Co Census; household indicates himself plus one male under 16 and 4 females which would include a wife, if living... I show Casper Bolch as son of Johnann Adam Bolch and Anna Christina notes: believe Johann Adam is shown as "Adam Bolick" on the 1790 Lincoln Co. census....household shows: one male OVER 16 (includes head of household....so this one is presumed to be Johann Adam)....also four females, one of whom, presumably is wife Anna Christina; I have children of Johann Adam and Anna Christina as: Jacob (m Maria Salome GRIMES) Sebastian (m Hanna Margaret HEFNER) Johann Adam (m Christina HUFFMAN) Casper (m Maria Magdalene DEAL) Godfrey (m Catherine TREFFENSTATT) Christina (m Frederick TREFFENSTATT) Elizabeth (m Joel MILLER) Don't know if any of this fits in or helps you, but if you're interested in more about the BOLCH/Bolick line, here are some web resources: Bolch Genealogy: http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Plains/2953/ (that's probably the best site) my Bolick info is found here: http://members.home.net/teylu/bolick/ I don't have the names of descendants of Casper/Caspar Bolch myself, but I do have email addresses of researchers who descend from that line. If you'd like those, just drop me a note. -Sandy teylu@home.com/ ------- Conquest Music wrote: > > Hi Ann > I have a little on Casper thru research on the Berger/Barger/Barrier family. > Catherine ____ Casper b 1752 d 25 Oct 1822 married 23 Mar 1785 George > Henry Berger.
