List Admin here. It seems that we have time for lots of post to Russell list before Rootsweb starts implementing their changes. It will not have an effect on our list until after September 1st. I will not call a "rollcall " because when you post to the list I do not want those words used as the subject line. Please write to the list if you will and put a name into the subject line as I have done with my husband's first known ancestor. James Russell was born 1772 in PA. He married Margaret Unknown last name and all their children were born in South Carolina. James and Margaret died in Pickens Co. AL. Their children were : 1. Elizabeth born 1793 who married John Oxford. She died in Choctaw County Mississippi 2. Matthew C. born 1801 died after 1880 I have 8 children for him but no wife's name. 3. Savilla Russell born 1805 died Limestone Co. TX 1884 she married David J. Tidwell 4. Daniel Rufus Russell born 1812 married Temperance Ruth Franks they died in Neshoba Co. MS. 5. John Russell 1814 SC. I have no wife or childlren for him . One problem with this family that I have run into. My husband had a 37 marker YDNA test and he matches men named GREER and GRIER close enough that FTDNA said within the last 100 to 300 years this line of Russell descended from a Grier common ancestor. This is why we are so interested in finding a Male Russell from any of the above Children of James and Margaret Russell We need to try and pinpoint a time .
