I am seeking ancesotors of a REBECKAH SNOW b. Oct. 1, 1793 possibly Providence, RI. Marr. May 30, 1815 at Broadalbin, NY to Thomas F. Palmer. She died LaSalle Co. IL 1854. We believe that she had a brother Samuel Snow, as she & Thomas are listed living next to him in 1820 Warsaw, Wyoming Co., NY census. Rebeckah named her children, all born NY 1816-1828, rather unusual names: Margaret McCoon Palmer, Lydia Hubbard Palmer, Chloe Allen Palmer, Joseph Snow Palmer. These were not names on her husband's side . . . so we think the names given to her children may relate to her parents or grandparents. Please keep this note and if your meanderings find anything, I would appreciate hearing. Thank you very much. Peter Burrows, Annapolis, MD

Anyone out there working on WOOLFOLKI? I am looking for information on Charles T. WOOLFOLK. He was born in St Louis, Missouri, although the death certificate of his son lists father as being born in Kentucky. I do not have a birth date. He married Ida America CHUNN on November 20, 1878 in Carrolton, Carroll County, Missouri. The marriage ended or they were separated and she took up with (don't know if they ever married) a Mark Isador DRAPER, which is my mom's maiden name, but the name should have been WOOLFOLK as it was never legally changed to DRAPER and DRAPER was not kin. I find a marriage record for Charles T. WOOLFOLK to Ida CHUNN, and I find a web sight of donners to University of Missouri in the late 1800s that lists Charles T. WOOLFOLK, but that is it. Anyway, if anyone has info on any of these names, please let me know. This is all a big mystery to my family. I have been told by my great aunt that WOOLFOLKS had something to do with the founding of Montana, but who knows? Thank you, Christina

Does anyone out there have info that may pertain to my PRATTS? I have posted like crazy, been to the Enoch PRATT Free Library in Baltimore, done a bit of research in Sharon, PA, and find nothing new. I take that back, I did find a 1860 MD census record of James Pratt and Ann Pratt and family. It confirmed a few things, and added new mystery. The handwriting is difficult but a woman named Margaret Ford (?) aged 70 was living in the house. It may be a clue to Ann's maiden name. Any help would be greatly appreciated! My great-grandfather was Thomas Vincent PRATT, born September 10, 1893. Other siblings were; James, Mary Regina, William Peter, Joseph, Edward, Eugine, and Aloysius. Their parents were James E. PRATT born (probably) in Mt Savage, Maryland in 1859, and Bridget PHILLIPS? born 1861 in Maryland. They were married in 1882. James died in 1928 and Bridget in 1916. James E. PRATT's parents were James and Ann Pratt. James was born in England and Ann in Ireland Bridget PHILLIPS parents were Peter PHILLIPS and Christina WOOD or WOODS, both born in Scotland. They were married around 1845. Thank you, Christina

Just so some of you know: Unless I bring down my headers, I don't see a long subject line - and I'm not into reading my headers. It makes a lot more reading than is necessary. Of the subject line listed above, all I was able to see was "Re: Surnames: I am working". It is good to put the main info on the subject line, but if you put really long subject lines, I don't see it all, and neither do a lot of other users. Just trying to help out. Renee' in Okla.

Hi there, Was wondering if you could do a look up for me on these volumes. My g-grandfather's brother was George H. Pierson. I found hits on these volumes for this name. He would have been born abt. 1841 in IN. If you find something you think matches I would like the Gedcom file too. Thanks for any help. Cheryl (Pierson) Dau

My ggfather was Hans Paulson. His wife was Ingeborg Eliza Christiansen. Their sons were John Frederick Christian Paulson (May 13, 1887), Alfred Meeker Paulson (March 25, 1891), and Arthur Lawrence Paulson (September 27, 1893). All three sons were born in Carnes, Sioux, Iowa. My gfather was Alfred Meeker Paulson. My aunt, Elinor (Paulson) George has worked on that branch of the family. The family of one or both of the other two brothers now is in the Oklahoma area. I have attended one or two get-togethers down there a number of years ago, although I can't remember which family line it was. Is there anybody from either or both of those families who has been working on their family lines? Hubert O. Paulson, Jr. Lincoln, NE [email protected] [email protected]

You know I have seen Sgt. George by very nice, he has stepped out of his way to help with a few things I needed help with, I have found him very intelligent, and have called him my friend, He was a bit hard to understand at first, but when I got that through my head, I also learned when I needed a little help, who to ask.

Unfortunately, I have no Canadian Cave families. Thank you for the suggestion. I didn't realize I could put that many names on the subject line. Chris

A friendly suggestion. Using the name "CAVE" in the subject line may increase your responses.

I can't help directly. But you'll get more responses posting the subject as "DEPRAD, anytime, anyplace" Hope this helps.
