Good Morning, I guess I should know better than to read these emails at work. Yesterday when Gail mentioned Owens, I thought Yes!! I remember that name from one of my lines. when I got home last night, I was disappointed and feeling a little stupid.... Owen is a first name. So if anyone has Owen P Rhoads or Mary Hall Rhoads in your research, I would appreciate some help with them. Thank You, Theresa "Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work." --Thomas A.

Did you see my posting to Regan re Edward Mayes ancestry. I think that we Mayes researchers need some probate information on Liggen. The information I had was that Liggen died in Claiborne County. And that since the records in Claiborne County only go back to about 1859 that it was impossible to identify all Easter and Liggen's children. I am pretty convinced the the Easter "May" aged 74 listed in Anna (Mayes) Solomon's household is Easter (Daniel) Mayes. Anyway I don't think Easter died in Claiborne County and I am wondering whether Liggen died in Claiborne county either. Maybe he died in Grainger County and there is some confusion with the younger Liggen of Claiborne County. I guess Esther (Easter) could have moved back to Grainger to live with a daughter...??? But I am JUST wondering Gail ----- Original Message ----- From: "William Owens" <wjowens60@msn.com> To: <TNGRAING-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Monday, January 23, 2006 17:45 Subject: Re: [TNGRAING-L] Owens and Mayes > Hi Gail > > Yes, I am still on the list just changed my email address a few years ago > when I went DSL. > > Robert and Nancy Mayes Owens are my great great grand parents.
