I'll send one to you via E-mail with my current Taylor chart attached. Maybe after I do that you can successfully reply. I think I've tried sending you a note as well, or we HAVE corresponded before. I already had your E-mail address in my mailer. Yours was the first note that indicated kinship to Richard Ivey other than the line of William Thomas. It's great to know that people DO know their line, but getting enough of our relatives to log on and declare their heritage is sometimes just a waiting game. I understand your comment about arrogance. I don't consider anything I do for me - it's for the family. So I would never consider charging for anything, nor would I withold anything from any member of the family. It's ours, not mine. Besides, I didn't come by any of it through my own digging, other than what I did on-line. That doesn't count. It's the people who dig through courthouse records that are the real researchers.

And, in answer to your query, YES, they certainly are! JOSEPH PERRIN of TN. was a Virginian, just as his spouse SARAH VADEN was. I have never been able to find the VADEN connection, but there are many instances of mentions in the PERRIN families in VA. JOSEPH and SARAH'S children were also born in VA. Two of his children, I think, also started their families in VA. CATHERINE, who died before they reached TN. was married to JOHN DAVIS, of VA. Her first child may have been JOHN PERRIN, who did go to TN. also. There is a lot of info out there to confirm some of the maybes. I did find a lady in Texas who is a descendant of CATHERINE PERRIN, whose daughter was an ancestor of PETER HAMILTON. I would be happy to give you her name if you would like to e-mail me.

I am always happy to share with other conscientious researchers. Arrogant ones sometimes are more difficult to work with, and we have a few in our gene pool. I am a bit rushed right now, but will look up the sources for the things I have that differ from your data, if you are interested. I will give you Harriett’s data to the extent that I have it, also. There are photos of Harriet and her husband taken when they were old, but they are in really poor condition and do not reproduce well. I look to hearing from you. I tried to email directly to you but it bounces whether I use lower case or the mix of cases as displayed in your address. Can you contact me directly?

I haven't been able to find out anything on her. If you don't mind, please send me what you hold on who she married, and her children. I don't plot entire distaff lineages, but do list marriages, children and the marriages of the children, whenever I can get them. Thanks! You made my day. Note below that there are a few discrepancies in data. I don't claim to be right, but just to note that the children listed on the 1850 census indicate that the last three of Richard Ivey's children had to be born after that census. I think the 1860 census bears that out. Below is the information I hold on Richard Ivey and Thomas. I do have more on Thomas' children, but do not add it here. I have quite a lot of information on the line upstream of Richard Ivey, if you want it. I don't recall if I already sent it to you or not. Thanks for answering.

Hi Sonia Thank you. After getting your response, I looked at the 1930 census on Ancestry.com, and it lists the following enumeration districts: District 21-Calhoun Falls Town; District 22--Magnolia Twp (North Part); District 23--Magnolia Twp (South Part) except Calhoun Falls Town. Based on the highway names listed in the 1930 census pages for Long Canes Township, it appears to run north (not south) of Abbeville, from the Anderson-Abbeville Highway to the Greenwood-Abbeville Highway (including the Abbeville-Due West Highway, State Route 20, Abbeville-Hodges Road and the Due West-Hodges Road). Smithville Township lies south of Long Canes and east of Abbeville (State Highway 7, 5 Notch Road, Verdery to Abbeville Road) and Cedar Springs Township is South east of Abbeville (Abbeville Verdery Road, Abbeville-mcCormick Road, Old Charleston Road, Cedar Springs Road). No roads or streets are listed in the two Diamond Hill Township enumeration districts, but about the only area of the county left is to the west of Abbeville towards Antreville and Lowndesville, so that's my current guess for the location of Diamond Hill Township. The location of Long Canes Township is surprising, since I think most would think of Long Canes as south of Abbeville, not north. I am curious if any of these old township names are still used in Abbeville County. Bob

By his first wife - only have her first name "Ann" from where they joined a church in Montgomery County, AL - I only know the names of three. There possibly could have been others. 1) William Thomas Taylor b. ca 1820 is, as far as I know, his oldest son and is likely the one through whom you descend. He was known as Thomas, and married Martha Cason probably about 1836, probably in Montgomery Co. AL although I have not tried to locate any possible records of this. 2) Harriett Taylor (this is my ancestress) 12 Jan 1832 from Bible 3) Daniel Taylor ca 1841 By second wife Kesiah B.

I'm reposting this because it has not appeared in the digest yet: Each of the 1870 through 1930 censuses lists the following towns or townships for Abbeville County: Abbeville, Cedar Springs, Diamond Hill, Donalds, Due West, Long Cane, Lowndesville, Magnolia and Smithville. I can find Abbeville, Cedar Springs, Donalds, Due West, and Lowndesville on a modern map. Does anyone know the general boundaries of Diamond Hill Township, Long Cane Township, Magnolia Township or Smithville Township in Abbeville County? The UGIS service locates Long Cane (historical) at latitude 34-08-54N and longitude 82-19-57W which looks like it is about 5 miles southeast of downtown Abbeville near where Norris Creek runs into Long Cane Creek. This is close to where the town is located on the SCIway county map online (http://www.sciway.net/maps/cnty/abbeville.html). Is this where Long Cane Township would be? Bob Thompson
