Those who are planning your 2006 microfilm transcription projects will need to note a MAJOR increase in microfilm rental costs from the LDS Family History Library on Jan. 15th. The first rental (approximately 30 days) will be around $5.75 -- depending on handling fees charged by your local library -- with extensions costing $5.50, again depending on fees charged by your local library. That means a film borrowed on indefinite loan will cost about double its current cost. Therefore -- get to your local LDS Family History Center and order up your films now!

Hello, We're looking for a male, with the Hendricks/Hendrix surname, (descendant of 1802 Larkin) to take a DNA test. 1802 Larkin and two of his sons and many grandsons and great grandsons are listed over the decades in the Dacusville, Pickens Co. SC census. (data at the bottom) The Y (male) based test for genealogy consists of swabbing the inside of the cheek and mailing the kit in. The man taking the test can remain anonymous if he wishes. The FEE for the DNA test WILL BE PROVIDED. Moses Hendricks b. 1760 of Pickens County had three sons - David b. 1779, Moses b. 1781 and Larkin b. 1802. A descendant of 1779 David and 1781 Moses (my line) have had the DNA test. We would now like to find a descendant of the 1802 Larkin line to take the test. Sons of 1802 Larkin include: Joseph Cleveland Hendricks b. 1828 Stayed in Dacusville, Pickens Co. SC David Hendricks b. 1834 Stayed in Dacusville, Pickens Co. SC James Butler Hendricks b. 1837 was in 1860 New River Co. FL Census - did not return to Pickens Co. SC Milton b. 1842/5 did not appear in the Pickens Co. Census after 1860. Hope to hear from a cousin. Gale Hendricks P.S. to the female Hendricks descendants (of whom I am one). If you are the family researcher, maybe you could find a male cousin to take the test.

You folks with the King family any of you got a George Washington King ---- thanks elaine

Harold thanks for the great information! I although do not have records of Elisha Webb moving to GA only Nancy by 1880. I do so much appreciate all the King info. I also have another King connection the wife of Jonathan Downs Brewster who was from SC and later moved to GA. Seems everyone I am related to did come through GA at one time or another. Thanks again, Mary Great granddaughter of James W Webb and Frances E Waits Great great granddaughter of Elisha Webb and Nancy King

Mary and Delores, Yes, Nancy King, married to Elisha Webb, was William King's daughter. Elisha Webb parents were Charles Webb and Catherine Stribling. Nancy, Elisha, and two sons moved to Georgia in the 1870's. William King was married to Nancy Jones, whose parents were William Jones and Polly Mudd. The property left by William King in his will was located in Fork Township, Anderson County, SC, close to Fairplay, SC. The property is now under Lake Hartwell. We do not know where William King, who died 1853-54, was buried. William King was my gggrandfather.

> Elizabeth, > Do the newspaper clippings mention any locations. You might could narrow > down your field of search that way. Sorry. I knew I forget to include some information. From what I can tell, all the newspaper clippings are from Atlanta newspapers, which doesn't necessarily mean anything, especially this close to Atlanta. One clipping is from a Sunday newspaper: it is a color Ripley's "Believe It or Not" item, which would have run in a Sunday comics section. Whoever cut these clippings out went to a lot of trouble to not include the city and newspaper name, which is pretty typical: as a student assistant in Clemson's archives, I've spent time trying to identify dates and newspaper names in clippings in the files of a major public figure of the first three-quarters of the 20th century. I'm in my forties and have spent most of my life in Georgia, the Carolinas and eastern Tennessee. In almost all this area, it was pretty routine to be able to find a newstand that sold the Sunday Atlanta newspaper -- and I grew up reading it as a Sunday ritual. Elizabeth Whitaker

Here is a link that gives an excellent sketch of some of the Whigs and Tories during the Revolutionary War. Phillip Norfleet is the person who put it together.

I am looking for a MAYFIELD/REESE connection. My husband's g-g-g grandfather was born in 1802, we think in S.C. or perhaps TN. We are unable to determine who his parents are, or if he had any siblings. His name was MAYFIELD REESE. He lived in S.C.(?), TN., AL., and Tupelo, MS. Any help will be most appreciated. Joann Perry-Reese

Is anyone working on the Mayfields? I am stuck with Samuel who came to the district and seemed to live on his brother's land, Abraham Mayfield. I have been trying long distance to learn his children's names. I may need to visit SC to look for them. Would there be school records or church records? They were Baptists. -----Original Message----- From: SC-OLD-PENDLETON-DIST-D-request@rootsweb.com Sent: Mon, 7 Nov 2005 15:00:22 -0800 To: SC-OLD-PENDLETON-DIST-D@rootsweb.com Subject: SC-OLD-PENDLETON-DIST-D Digest V05 #209

Hello all, I am searching for the place of burial for a Alfred MOORE. He probably died ca. 1840-1850. He was married to Mary. They had a son named Alfred in Anderson Co. in 1844. Can anyone help me with locating the graver of Alfred MOORE in the area of present day Anderson Co., SC? Travis
