I can't recall who had the Ashby surname.... I found this and wonder if anyone can shed any light on any QUIGLEY people in KY around 1800. >Was listed as an appraiser in the will of QUIGLY, JAMES; of Mercer County KY; Appraisement: March 25, 1793: Apprs: John Thomas, Stephen Ashby, Daniel Ashby. Book 1 Page 102 [Mercer Co. KY Wills 1786-1826,] There were a lot of other wills listed where Ashbys were involved at this site. Thanks for your time.

this is a test to make sure I am still on the list. Thanks to bad advice on software upgrade, lost a lot of data. Ken

Who will do a look-up for Isaac Maggart and Mary Maggart in the 1830 Shenandoah census for me? Thanks for your time and help. Ken Maggard Marietta, GA

Is anyone on this list researching the BURKS line? John was born 23 July 1760 in Rockbridge, Va. Married Mary ?. They migrated to Washington and Mercer Counties in Kentucky and John died there after 1813. Always wondered if Mary's last name was "HARPER" because their Granddaughter was named Mary Harper BURKS. Supposedly John's Father was Richard BURKS who married an Elizabeth Minns/Mimms? Have no proof for Richard. Would appreciate any little tidbit of information .... no matter how "small"! Thanks, Jan Lund

I might add a note of caution, if I may. The Handley Library Archives (lower level) at Winchester, Virginia, will be closed sometime this summer for upgrading.

I have been trying to research Annie C Bane (b:1871, Rockbridge Co; d:1924.04) that wed Andrew Tolley Knick, but have been quite unsuccessful locating her parents until a clue I received recently. A friend indicated that she was actually born Annie C Irvine and wed ??? Bane, having two children (Will and Mary), after which she wed Andy Knick and had two children (Emma Rachel and Vernie Lee). Can anyone confirm this and/or have any further information on Annie's parents. Thanks very much in advance to anyone that can help with this. -- John

Wendy, I was also going to suggest Page/Shenandoah Counties. Be aware that some of the Longs migrated to Holt County, Missouri. Vicky Drake [email protected] >Good luck in finding the Longs and Reubushes. Have you considered Page County >for the Longs? >--Wendy >

Researchers, My husband and I will be making a trip to Virginia later this month to try to collect data on the LONG family and the RUEBUSH family. ADAM LONG and MARGARET RUEBUSH were married 1788 in Rockingham Co. In 1792 they moved to Augusta Co. Margaret died in 1843; Adam in 1854. Both are buried in Frieden's cemetery in Rockingham Co. Their son ELI LONG died abt. 1881. He and two of his sons (killed in the Civil War) are buried in Melanchton Cemetery. I have never been able to find out who ADAM LONG's parents were. Here's the question: If you were going to make the trip to Virginia, where would you look for information about these "befogged" and "beclouded" ancestoral records? I know to go to the Frieden's Church, but where from there? Thanks, Virginia Hutson vhutson

Hi, Hi, Is there a good possibility that I can find a death certificate for ADAM LONG, who died 1854 in Augusta Co. VA? If so, where would I look? Also, would it likely have his father's name on it? Thanks, Virginia Hutson [email protected]

Everyone, I must say, genealogists are some of the nicest people in the world. In answer to my query, I got the phone number to the Friedens Church, found out information about which I had known nothing, and got much encouragement from list members. OXOXOX Thanks, Virginia
