I appreciate for those with no connections it will not be all that relevant but for those with British ancestry, the Yesterdays site contains thousands of names of folks many of whom were strays or strangers, away from their recognised abode or expected parish. The Settlement Certificates and particularly the Settlement Examinations give a good account of what can be found in Record Offices and if you have any such overseas connections with the UK they are well worth the effort in trying to see if such a document(s) survives for your ancestors, particularly if they have "moved". It may be they are even within this list, but if not, it still gives a good idea of what can be found in their respective parishes and County Record Offices. Bastardy records may names the father, Apprenticeships let you know who the young lads and lasses went to serve, some as young as seven years. There may be instances of Apprentices running away becaus of cruelty on behalf of the Master. Removal documents record those folks who fell on hard times and were removed back to their last legal Settlement. Thousands were moved all over the Country. mike http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~spire/Yesterday/index.htm

Justice John and Esther Waugh Gaston are interred in Fishing Creek area near Chester/Richland South Carolina. I understand there's are lone graves covered with a concrete slab in the middle of a privately owned field. I'm going to try to go over there this fall to get pictures of it. I'm told I'll need to get permission to visit the grave sites. Does anyone have more information, a picture or anything? Joyce Gaston Reece

Do you mean Lancaster SC. Patsy

She married Thomas Wood 1838 in Calloway Co, KY. Her children were Nancy J., Hugh W., Henry, William C., Susan, Thomas Levy, John Wesley, Rebecca Ann, and Mary E. Wood. They had one daughter that I don't have a name for. She was the oldest born about 1839 or 1840 in the 1840 census with them. Some were born in KY, some in IL, and some in MO. LuAna

Do you have the names of her children? There is a lot of similarities, although your grandmother was in Kentucky. The Rachael Roberds who married a William Nichols in S.C. was part of that migration from S.C., Tn., Ky, then Al. They were in Ky. about 1808-1810. I don't know how many Nichols may have been with them, so it's possible a Nichols stayed in Ky. Thanks again, Helen

My Nichols line is so frustrating because I only have one, my GG-Grandmother, and can't find any other siblings or her parents. She was born in TN 1822 and her father in SC and her mother in TN according to census'. My GG-Grandmother was in KY by 1838 where she was married. I have her downline children but nothing upline. That's it!

Orange Walker, descendant of Francis Walker and Charity Bush, lived with his family in Upshur Co TX about 1900. Among his descendants was Dr. Henry Dauch Walker of Glenwood TX. (see database bartlett1944 at rootsweb worldconnect and also http://cnr2.kent.edu/~manley/genealogy/JohnWALKER.html ) Has this line of Walkers had dna analysis? It doesn't appear that it has. Our group of Walker researchers on the line of Samuel Walker of Revolutionary times in Edgefield, SC, would be interested in being the sponsor for a dna test on this line. Please forward this email to anyone who might be a descendant of this line -- we need a male Walker of the line for the test, but please send to males and females...anyone who might be able to find a prospect!

They had a son James Nichols born 1815 in Tn. Then they migrated to Marengo Co., Al., the first record I find on them in Al. is 1831. Sarah Washburn, daughter of Gaberial Washburn, married James Law in S.C., they are also in Marengo Co., Al. by 1835. Thanks, Helen
