Simple definitions: 1. Tidewater is the coastal area. It goes as far inland as the tide can reach -- that is, to the first water falls or "rapids" which keep the tide from going higher inland. In Virginia, for instance, the first falls on the James River are at Richmond. Everything east is tidewater. The fall-line (see below) is the line drawn on the map by connecting all the first water falls. 2. Headwaters is where a river starts -- usually high in the mountains, inland. 3. Carolina Piedmont -- the piedmont (pied = foot, mont = mountains, so foot-hills) is the area between the fall-line and the mountains. There's a Carolina piedmont area, Virginia piedmont area, Georgia piedmont etc. Let me know if you have questions about this. Lynne Hundley ---------- I am unfamiliar with the following terms: > 1. Tidewaters > 2. Headwaters > 3. Carolina Piedmont > > James Wm. Wallace > [email protected]
I've been reading the "Scotch/Irish" by James G. Leyburn and "The Lexington Presbytery Heritage" by Howard McKnight Wilson and they continue to make geographical references that confuse me. I have spent my entire life living in Michigan and I am unfamiliar with the following terms: 1. Tidewaters 2. Headwaters 3. Carolina Piedmont I only need a simple explanation if possible please.

Hi, Folks, I should have mentioned in my previous message that I cannot do more than an INDEX lookup in this book. ==================== In the event you decide you are hungry for info on your surname (that's what we're here for)in the index of the subject book, may I make a suggestion? Since I have previously done quite a few lookups for the OLD FREDERICK COUNTY Mailing List, could you please check their archives first, and note that you did so in a lookup request? It would even save me a great deal of time. It surely would be appreciated. Wouldn't it make sense to not waste valuable space at Rootsweb with identical info? ==================== Thanks so much for your cooperation.

John Fairburn was reported in Augusta Co. in 1769 and raised a large family. They intermarried with the following families: Guin, Jackson,Collins, Breesland, Misner, Funk, Hook, Ramsey, Back, Hoover, Snider, Flory and Taylor. This was before 1850 and many others after. Any one have a connection? Love to hear from you. Thanks, Don Fairburn

Thanks for the information re the hotel, Rowe's and also (another post) for the museum. I was in that area last October and that hotel was just being built. Rowe's by the way...A+. This information is really nice to have since... In July of 2000, there will be a family reunion held in Augusta Co., VA. This reunion is open to those who descend from Rev. Adam Adolph Spindler (resident minister of St. John's Reformed Church, nr. Middlebrook, Augusta Co., VA - 1787 - 1800's) or any of the allied lines. A few of those surnames are: Hutchens, Sensebaugh, Palmer, Wiseman, Engleman, Ludwick, Cowman etc.. If anyone on this list is interested in attending and descends from the above named "group", please privately email me. K [email protected]
