Hi, I am searching for Bessie Ribelin Honbarrier's family. She married Calvin Honbarrier and they had one child that I am aware of and that would be Charlie Jason Honbarrier that married Bessie Mae Sowers. Any Sowers info would be great also. These people are buried at Dunns Mountain Baptist Church Cemetery, Rowan County, NC. Does anyone know if the Dunns Mountain Cemetery is listed on line...and also the small Riblelin Family Cemetery. Any help will be greatly appreciated... Respectfully yours! Thelma Waddell Wisecarver hhthelma@bellsouth.net Cleveland, North Carolina

I have just finished reading John Hart's second novel set in Salisbury, Rowan Co., NC. It is entitled "Down River," and I think it is even better than his first novel ("King of Lies"). Both are murder mysteries but do reference local landmarks, though not real people. It is set in the modern day. In this new book he talks about a "knob" on the outskirts of Salisbury. He says it is "a massive upheaval of granite that could pass for a small mountain. Most of it was wooded slope, but the peak was barren, the soil too thin for much to grow. It commanded a view of the river's northern approach, and was the most inaccessible part of the property." He recounts an old Sapona "legend" or history. When the white man came, the Indians did not want to give up their land. At the top of the knob was a large fissure or chasm, and all the Indian fled there, planning to fight. Apparently the Indians were massacred and all the bodies (men, women, children), even the living, were thrown down into the fissure. The living women and children were thrown in first and the dead bodies were thrown down on top of them. He goes on to say that "the legend is that so much blood soaked into the water table that the springs ran red for days after." This may be fiction or fact and I wonder which. Does anyone know? My John Pool family lived near the Granite Quarry after 1810. I wonder if this "knob" is actually a real place and if it still exists today. I understand that Chestnut Hill Cemetery is now located at or near the Quarry. Betty Pace

Someone is asking about a couple who reportedly got married in Jefferson Co. TN about 1780. According to a PLACE search in the Family History Library Catalog, Jefferson Co., Tennessee was not in existence at that time. Furthermore, Tennessee belonged to North Carolina until about 1796, if I have my dates correct. Here is a statement from FHLC: Jefferson County was established 11 June 1792 from parts of Greene and Hawkins counties. Early records may be found under Greene and Hawkins counties. County seat: Dandridge. Here is another statement from FHLC concerning Tennessee: Prior to statehood most of what is now Tennessee was known as the Western District of North Carolina. Tennessee became a state in 1796. The popular name for the territory south of the Ohio River was the Southwest Territory which was created in May of 1790. What I am trying to get across is that records of the family the researcher is seeking may NOT be cataloged under the jurisdiction which she thinks is the PLACE. Again, it may be--but if I were searching early Tennessee, I think I would study some of its history because I may be looking in the wrong PLACE!!! (And, thanks to state legislatures, some counties not only have their boundaries changed but also their names changed!!! Such is the life for a family historian.)

Does anyone have a handle or even a small clue as to the family of Evan Ellis of the Jersey Settlement and, if so, was he Welsh? I'm particularly looking for predecessor information for James Ellis b. 8 May 1758, maybe in Rowan County, married Sarah Riggs about 1780 in Jefferson Co TN, died Oct 1818 and left a will dated 17 Sep 1817 in Lincoln/Moore Co TN. I'd also like to determine who were Sarah Riggs' parents/family for I believe they were in company, among others, to the migrations of this Ellis family from New Jersey to North Carolina to Tennessee to, eventually, Shelby County, Illinois. Other related families -- Crockett, Elliot, Curry, Langston, Boone et al... Thanks for any and all assistance! Myrna Madigan Tuscola, IL

That naming pattern you did not find in the German families IS prevalent in the Scotch-Irish. In them, where it looks like a girl is named for an aunt, it usually is the aunt was named for a grandmother, ( the baby in question's great grandmother) so keep looking UP the family tree, and most of the time, there will be a person who was a namesake. Then there are all the kids named for famous ministers of the day, Lorenzo Dow for one; and politicians.Sometimes the politicians are also kin, but most of the time, not.

Hi List Members, For those of you who have PA German ancestors, I thought that I would share something new that I learned yesterday about German naming patterns. I found a couple of posts made by a couple of professional genealogy researchers who said that they have never found any consistent pattern in naming their children like you usually see among other ethnic groups, i.e., first son after the father's father, first daughter after the mother's mother, and so on. They did mention that these PA German people named their children after one of the baptism sponsors. I checked this theory out with both my Adams and Schmidt families of Lancaster County, PA and they were right, they named each child after the man or woman, depending on whether it was a boy or girl, after the baptism sponsor. So much for trying to find out what your oldest ancestor's father's name was by what he named his first son with these German ancestors. Joan Lowrey, who is 3/4 German, said, "As far as naming the first son after the husband's father, etc., I have never found a German family who followed any such pattern. (Maybe there was such a pattern, but being Germans, they weren't about to follow it. <g>)" (From APG-L at Rootsweb) Linda Monticelli ************************************** See what's new at http://www.aol.com

37.    Thomas2 Gowen (John1, William2, Thomas1, Michael1), born say 1732, was taxable in the 1751 Lunenburg County household of (his father?) John2 Gowen in the list of Richard Witton [Tax List 1748-52]. On 30 May 1752 he purchased 150 acres in Granville County on both sides of Taylors Creek at the mouth of Spring Branch [DB B:53]. He was in the Granville County list of Osborn Jeffreys, adjoining Michael and Edward Going, taxable on one white and one black poll in 1753 and one black poll in 1754. He was called a "Mulatto" in Captain Osborne Jeffreys' Company in the 8 October 1754 Muster Roll of the Granville County Regiment of Colonel William Eaton [Clark, Colonial Soldiers of the South, 718]. In the 1761 list of John Pope he had Moses Gowen in his household with the notation "Refuses to List his wife," and in 1764 he and Moses were taxed in John Pope's list for St. John's Parish as two white polls. In 1768 he was tithable on three persons: himself, John Gowin, and Alston Hopkins who was white. In 1780, called Thomas Gowen Sr., he was taxed on an assessment of 997 pounds, and he was taxed on 150 acres in 1785. He was head of a Granville County household of 4 free males and 5 free females in the 1786 state census in Dutch District. On 25 January 1788 he sold his land in Granville [DB O:555], and he may have moved to Montgomery County where Thomas Gain was counted in the 1790 census with 3 white males and 5 white females in his household [NC:164]. His 7 February 1797 Montgomery County will named only his five youngest children. His children werei. Moses4, born circa 1749 since he was taxable in 1761 in the list of John Pope. He may have been the Moses Jewil, alias Gowin, who purchased 100 acres on the south side of the Tarr River on both sides of Middle Creek in Granville County on 2 February 1768 [DB H:481].ii. John5, born circa 1756, not identified as Thomas' son but taxed in his 1768 household.iii. Vini, married ____ Hardister.iv. Burgess, born 1780/4, died in Montgomery County in 1849.v.
