Gail: Thank you for the clairification on the Jane Mayes. I appeared to have everyone in order and printed out your email to re-verify. Now, another query: Jane Howell Ivey is in no way related to the Jane Howell who married James Mayes, then Reuben Groves, Jr, or at least that's what I have determined. The surname Howell happens to be merely coincidential, right? Sheri Gail Roorda <[email protected]> wrote:Dear Sheri, I really enjoyed reading your letter about your own research. I always love hearing what other researchers are doing! HOWEVER please RECHECK the message I sent to the list last evening. In your reply to this message you said: "..assigned the wrong father to Nancy. If you hadn't mentioned Henry was the Jane's father, not Sherrod, who knows what terribly mixed up things I would have done.." I said Henry IVEY (IVY) was Jane MAYES IVY's FATHER-IN-LAW and that Jane HOWELL IVY was Jane MAYES IVY's MOTHER-IN-LAW (don't mean to "shout" just trying to get the point across.) which could have caused your Frederick MAYES descendent's confusion regarding DODs (I KNOW all the Jane's, Henrys and Nancys are terribly confusing. ) My third great grandmother, Jane MAYES IVY, WAS Shrerrod MAYES and Elizabeth SMITH MAYES's daughter. Jane MAYES IVY was born in 1792 and died sometime after 1870 most likely in Hamblen County, Tennessee. Her husband, Benjamin IVY, died in 1853 in Grainger County. Benjamin was the son of Henry IVY or IVEY (1754-16 July 1836) and his wife, Jane HOWELL (1759-circa July 1848).

Edith Whitley's son told me some years ago that the family donated all of her family information to a library in TN. I don't remember all the particulars, and I'm sure I no longer have the letter.

I have no authority to ask her to answer? I have also not accused her or anyone else of theft of original records. I have only confirmed that I think the actual taking of original records was illegal. Her original posting is not clear on the subject, only saying: "a researcher got (114 records) out of the old school in 97. Only she knows what happened. I am not interested in being prosecutorial or accusing anyone of anything, but I am interested in those who actually took records having a reason to return them, no questions asked. By the way, because of the time difference and the quick response on the Grainger list, it may seem like I am pushing, but I live in Norway where it is now evening, while it is morning in the US.

Of course it is theft, but that was my point actually. If anyone knows of someone who took originals, they should be contacted to get these records back and no questions asked. (amnesty, if you like) This may or may not be the case here but it has happened before.

Does anyone have anything about the HOLTS in Grainger Co. Marriages, deaths, places they lived etc. Some names might be Seth, Preston, Sherman,David , Bassie, John, William, Ben, Porter, Sterling, Pleasant. Any and all info appreciated. Thanks, Pat

Hey there, 1910 Grainger Co.TN John W. Roach 39 -married 16 yrs.

They never listed her as a seperate Roach,like they did in the other census,so if they have the same surname as the head of the household,you just have to look at them,until you find it......I hadn't thought about that.............

You might try McClung Historical Collection, Knox Co., Knoxville, Tenn. There are volumes there from all counties, especially east Tennessee. The phone number is 865 215-8801. I have been through Grainger Co. books but don't remember what is there. However, there are usually marriage record transcriptions from most counties.

This list has been in existence since 1996, and numerous conversations regarding the records at the school have taken place. A couple of individuals mentioned earlier were going through the records & compiling the information & selling it at a reasonable price (considering their work), and there was a problem -which I don't recall at the moment, so they stopped. Let's get a grip folks! IF records have been taken, of course, it is theft.............however, when there has been no monitoring, as there would be at the courthouse, that sort of thing happens. Additionally, who knows how many of the records were actually destroyed by the flooding of the courthouse basement, and how many have just been taken? Anyhow -let's all just calm down here, please.

Conni, This is only partly true. My understanding is that most of these records were supposed to have been (microfilmed?) or at least transcribed by the WPA and these were sent to TSLA. The records themselves remained at the county level. I long knew when my ggggfather married in Grainger Co. but thanks to Mickey Morris and Debbie (do not remember last name) who used to research the records and even made a set of mg. books, I got a copy of the original to match against the transcript. It was both wonderful and productive to see the original mg. liscense and bond because it clearly showed he was literate and could sign his name. I wish I lived near Grainger Co. as I would gladly volunteer to help.

I agree that Grainger seems to be one big happy family. My families in Grainger are Chesher and Yates. I see names my Dad (born and raised in Grainger Co.) talked about endlessly. Some I'm sure are related by mg - Roach, Michell and vineyard. If anyone sees A Chesher or Yates in their trees, would they please contact me?

Mother 77 WD 10 4 TN William brother 46 D TN I hope this helps you although this is not my family. All the other censuses they lived in Dist 5 and so it was easy to find them in the 1910 census on ancestry.com .

Connie, Tennessee, Grainger County, Marriage Bonds and Licenses, 1796-1837, Book No. 1, was compiled by Billie Wyrick Kennerly, not Edith Rucker Whitley. Mrs. Whitley did publish a lot of books on Tennessee records, but I do not believe that she published any Grainger County Marriage Records. If she did, I would like to have information on the book and would be grateful for the correction. Billie Wyrick Kennerly also published Tennessee, Grainger County, Marriage Bonds and Licenses, 1838-1866, Book No. 2. However, she died some years ago and I do not know if her heirs/estate still has copies for sale or not, whether they would allow this data to be put on the internet, nor how to contact them. Ross Cameron >>> [email protected] 03/07/03 01:07PM >>> Bobby: Is this book available for purchase? I'm sure there are some of us newbies who might want to add this book to our collection. If not, could you please provide name of publisher to see if we can obtain a copy? Does anyone know Edythe Rucker? Would she give permission to transcribe this book and put on internet for others? ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Friday, March 07, 2003 11:48 AM Subject: [TNGRAING-L] MITCHELL: Grainger County Marriages 1796--1837 > MITCHELL Marriages in Grainger Co, TN 1796--1837: > (33) Example page number in Grainger County Marriage Book by Edythe Rucker > WHITLEY > > Please note that when several pages numbers are listed by one name it does > not necessarily mean they were married that many times; some are when they > were bondsman or Minister of Gospel who performed wedding........ > > MITCHEL, Anny (1) > Aquilla (33) > Brick (27) > Greenberry (16) > John (75) > Jubel (67) > Matilda (86) > Polly (16) > Robert (59), (84) > > MITCHELL, Amy (62) > Andrew J.
