To: POARCH-L@rootsweb.com I went to my first decoration day. The Diana Cemetery was ablaze with color. The peonies were in bloom and the many colorful flowers placed on the graves were beautiful. Got to meet and talk to some new cousins, but missed many more. Next year, think I will take my lunch, cooler with cokes, and my own shade and plan to spend the day.

That Long-Marbut link is interesting. John & Ann Thomas Marbut were my 4th great-grandparents, their daughter Eodus Everline ("Oda") Marbut was my third great-grandmother. Oda married my 3rd great-grandfather, Peterson McGill, sometime around 1850. Oda, who along with Peterson are mentioned in the minutes of the Puncheon Camp Baptist Church of Christ, died around 1870, after which time Peterson married his third wife, Sarah Sherrod. Interestingly, Peterson's first wife, who we believe died in childbirth in 1849, was Mahala LONG! I don't know what connection if any exists between Mahala and the other Giles Co. LONGS. If anyone does know, please let us know. Jim Davis On Sat, 22 May 1999, Minnie HILLIS REAGOR wrote: > He is probably connected to Washington Alfred LONG & Patsy Martha > MARBUT.

Hi Folks, If you find a bad or broken link or unknown e-mail address, please let me know so I can fix/remove it. There are hundreds of these on the web page now and it is impossible for me to check them. If you have posted a query or contributed some item, and you change your e-mail address, let me know so I can make the corrections. Dave

He is probably connected to Washington Alfred LONG & Patsy Martha MARBUT. I don't have a listing of all of their children, but W.A. LONG was born in Giles Co,TN. about 1812, but died in Barry Co,MO. about 1909. Patsy was a niece of John & Ann (THOMAS) MARBUT of Giles Co,TN., and whose family had gone from SC., thru Giles Co,TN., before finally settling in Barry Co,MO. Patsy's father, Philip MARBUT, and John MARBUT were brothers - and their wives were sisters - making their descendents double cousins! _____Minnie Angel12461@aol.com wrote: > Does anyone recognize this set of LONG's ? 1870 census of Giles co. > > Long, Alfred. age 39.

I am looking for death record of ( 1 ) Ezra Long, only date 1881. Buried at Booths Chapel Cemetery. ( 2 ) Welsey Long, born 12 / 31 / 1896. (d) 8 / 21/ 1975. Buried at Maplewood New white section cemetery. Who would I need to call or write in order to see if these records even exist ? Thanks. Robbie

Does anyone recognize this set of LONG's ? 1870 census of Giles co. Long, Alfred. age 39. M. W. Farmer. Tn Mary E. age 34. F. W. James age 16. M. W. Thomas age 12. M. W. Daniel G. age 10. M. W Mary E. age 8. F. W. Samuel age 4. M W

I found these Randolph's and was wondering if anyone might have info on them. Not saying this is my line of Randolph's. A. Stephenson Randolph born abt. 1836 in Giles Co. married M. Louisa Randolph abt. 1867, Giles Co. His parents are listed as James L. Randolph and Abigail Randolph. James L Randolph, son of A. Stephenson Randolph and M. Louisa Randolph, born abt. 1868 in Giles Co. I also found an A. J. Randolph married Mary F. Tomerline on April 26, 1866 also of Giles Co. NOTE> This info came off of the lds site. Robbie

Would anyone happen to know how many sets of Long's and Randolph's there were in Giles Co. between the years of 1890 - 1920 and were these families connected at all ? As many of you already know I am researching these families, and have came across so many, was just wondering if any of them tied in with each other. Robbie

I thought I would try to post this again in hopes that maybe someone out there may have a few clues they could send my way. I am seeking info on Daniel Long who married Sarah J. Johnson on Oct. 15, 1882 in Giles Co. TN. I am also seeking info on the following Long's : Wesley, Ezra, Maggie, & Wiley. I have been told that these were also the brothers and sister of my grandfather Wilson Long who was born on April 5, 1892 ( on the genchart I had his birth as April 7, 1892 but found out from the cemetery in Marked Tree, Arkansas that his birth was recorded as April 5, 1892). Really I know right now is that Daniel Long and Sarah J. Johnson were the parents of Wilson Long. I do not know for certain about the other Long's I listed above. I can not seem to find out any info on Daniel Long. I do not know if he was born in TN. or not. I can not seem to find Wilson Long on the 1910 census of Giles Co. But I know he was there, somewhere. He married Emma Lee Randolph ( daughter of James Frank Randolph and Martha Stafford Randolph. I did find this Randolph family on the 1910 census of Giles Co. thanks to someone out there who gave me the info ). Emma L. Randolph and Wilson Long were married in Giles Co. on July 3, 1910. Emma had a sister named Ida B. another sister whom I can't make out on the 1910 census but the middle initial was a C. and she had a brother named Walter H. Anyone that may even think they have info on this family of Long's and Randolphs, and/ or any of the mentioned names, please, I am grasping for straws. Thank you in advance. Robbie

About a month ago I sent some information on Roper genealogy including sharing some of the brick walls I had encountered in my research. Are there others out there doing Roper research?
