If who ever wants this story of the Clinch River Pearls , let me read the 5 or 6 pages to see what's there & it might not be that much as I glanced over the pages and I didn't see anything about them. It has in index, on page 106 clinch river pearls but I didn't see anything. Give me tonight to read it and I'll put it on line unless there is to to much for me to type. The book is a wonderful thing to own however. I've learned much from it. I think I bought mine in 1990 and it was about $40.00 then Back later, Phyllis

Some while back I recall some postings about the Clinch River pearl trade. Can anyone bring me up to date on that - articles, books, etc. David Kesterson

In the book of Anderson Co., Historical Sketches by Katherine Baker Hoskins.there are about 4 pages on the Clinch River, floods & pearls. When I was there in the 1990's I wanted to buy one as my great grandfather & his brother ran a ferry across the river. None were to be found & I don't think they are in the river any more but not sure about that. Can you get the book ??? Phyllis

Hi, Sorry but my Packham line does not come to Anderson Co., but England to Ky. Not only that I don't have a scanner. Had one & never could learn to use it & now it's out dated. Did you know Bonnie Phillips ( if I remember right) comes into the Prosise line via the Peters or Benjamin Franklin Prosise. Are you in my line with the the Prosise's or just want the information??? Here is the address of the Blandford Cemetery in Va. 319 Charter Rd. Petersburg, Va. 23803 phone (804) 733-2379. Happy Hunting, Phyllis

Took my gg granpa 2 years to die from it. I have the war papers stating that fact. His son John W. Packham was the youngest civil war vet age 12 & I have that story in Harper's Newspaper dated 1865. Last year I was blessed with a picture of them both in uniform which my G Aunt hand tinted in color. They were on tin & years later had them restored. GOD BLESS AMERICA. Phyllis

Hi, Before I hit the sack I should tell you the Prosise's were in Va. late 1600's & lots' of luck on researching in Dinwiddie, most census are missing so ck land grands & wills and also the Blandford Cemetery in Petersburg. Lots of Prosise's buried there. They don't have anything on a computer but will answer your letter. I have the address if you want it. Mom # 2 Phyllis

Hello, John, I promise you I won't forget you & the Prosise's. Both my husband & myself have been down under with a cold that landed right in our lungs. I've done very little. The lady that's doing my book is on a cruse and I wanted to be ahead of her with information but have lost 4 day's & now have to make it up so my work is cut out for me. If there is anyone else I've promised something to please remind me. Is there anyone out there researching Starnes & Packham, Peckham of Ky & Ohio, Missouri ? Blessing, Phyllis

They appear in the 1860 census in Campbell Co.: 1860 Campbell County TN Note: William Riley Summers may be a brother to Johnson Summers as they both are in the Anderson Co.

I found Lorenzo in the household of Johnson Summers in Anderson Co. in 1850 . Hope this helps the confusion. Bonnie
