Just some info on Roots-L. This problem is most with folks that use Internet Explorer 4.0. MS, in their infinite wisdom, made Outlook Express, the mail program, default to HTML.

I would invite them > to send to the list their oldest Sapp family ancestor, or brick-wall, Laney T. Sapp b. 1830 possibly Tattnall County md. 1849 William Anderson (b. 1823 Tattnall County) I suspect that she is duaghter of one of the Sapps of Tattnall County as found in the 1840 census. Possibly Luke? I have not had access to marriage lookups. Laney may be a nickname. She is listed in Huxford's Pioneers in vol 7. But other than than that I have no other evidence that she existed. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi guys, we have a few new Sapp seekers on the list, and I would invite them to send to the list their oldest Sapp family ancestor, or brick-wall, as it may be. I have been in a monitor mode myself lately, I have three other lists and two webpages, so it isn't hard to find things to do. Welcome to all the new members, and much success to you.-Bill William Boulineau Antigo, WI wbouline@newnorth.net

Hello again, Sapp cousins, George Sapp[SMTP:gsapp@pacbell.net], who sent me some great information, suggested that I post the my information about the Daniel Sapp family of Fleming Co., KY to the Sapp list. Hope that someone finds it useful and, if not, it will be archived for the future. Following is a census summary for Daniel. 16 Aug 1800 - appears on the Kentucky "Reconstructed Census" (from tax lists). Daniel Sapp 1810 - appears on the Fleming Co., KY Federal Census. 3 males under the age of 10; 1 male of 10 & under 16; 1 male of 45 & up (Daniel); 2 females under the age of 10; 1 female of 10 & under 16; 1 female of 26 & under 45 (wife-Barbary). 1820 - appears on the Fleming Co., KY Federal Census. 2 males, age 0 to 10; 1 male, 10 to 16; 1 male, 45 & up (Daniel); 2 females, age 0 to 10; 1 female, 10 to 16; 1 female, 45 & up (wife-Barbary). 1830 - appears on the Bath Co., KY Federal Census. 1 male, 5-10; 2 males, 15-20; 1 male, 60-70 (Daniel); 1 female under 5; 1 female, 5-10; 1 female, 10-15; 1 female, 20-30; 1 female, 30-40; 1 female, 50-60 (wife-Barbary). School will be out in 2 weeks (yea!) and I plan on spending summer vacation haunting courthouses, etc. I hope to find more on Daniel. As far as I can tell, he did not purchase any land in Fleming Co. (I haven't checked Mason Co., from which Fleming was formed in 1798.) His son, Isaac built quite a large estate. At one time, the area near where he lived was named Sapp, KY (now Battle Run). It even had its own post office. A Fleming Co. Bank published a calendar this year with a photo of the flour mill in Sapp, KY. I'll send what information I have about Daniel's descendants in another email. Elizabeth Smith esmith@montgomery.k12.ky.us

Dear Sapp Cousins, According "A History of the Sapp Family," compiled and published by J. Gooden Sapp and H. W. Stanley, 1910, A Line, pg. 12: Daniel, son of Henry Sapp settled in Kentucky, but of his descendants we have no record." I believe that this may be my Daniel SAPP who settled in Fleming Co., in Northeastern KY around 1800. It is probable that his wife's name was Barbary. Their known children included: Daniel Peter Jacob Isaac Elizabeth Jonathan Joseph Isaac is my 3rd great-grandfather. He was born August 1806 in KY. Does anyone have any further info that would prove (or disprove) the connection between my Daniel and this Henry SAPP, "ancestor of the Ravenna, Ohio, line". By the way, I recently saw a posting from someone researching an Isaac SAPP related to this line. There is an 1808 Fleming Co., KY deed from a FOWLER to an Isaac SAPP. My Isaac would be too young at this time to purchase land, and the deed is straight-forward--no guardianships, etc. I guess its possible that this Isaac SAPP is the Isaac SAPP listed as brother to the Daniel SAPP and son of Henry SAPP. Any information will be appreciated and I'll share what I have. Much thanks, Elizabeth Page Smith in Central Kentucky esmith@montgomery.k12.ky.us "There was a young fellow of excellent pith, Fate tried to obscure him by naming him Smith." --Oliver Wendell Holmes
