Samuel Humes, son of John Humes and Elizabeth Stout was born in 1851, Hamilton Co., TN. He was rasied in Livingston Co., KY and by sometime after 1880 he migrated to Randolph Co., AR. I am assuming this date of 1880 due to the fact he is not found in the 1880 U.S. Census of Randolph Co. He married a Ella R. Mallady, and they had a son, Lynn b. 1881. I am not sure if there were any additional children. Samuel died 6th of July 1925 in Pocahontas, Randolph Co., AR and is buried in the Clearview Cemetery there. I would like to connect with descendants of Samuel Humes or anyone who has this family in their database. Kathleen Burnett

NELSON /EVANS REUNION-JULY 14TH All you Nelsons, related families and friends, don't forget the fourth annual Nelson Reunion for the descendants of Jave and Ellen Evans Nelson who were married in Anderson County in 1877. Although records list Jave as J. M. Nelson in Anderson County (and Jabers in one census record), a son's death certificate lists him as Thomas. Jave died in 1926, probably in Illinois, and is buried in Liberty Cemetary in Anderson County. Jave and Ellen's children included David, Henry, Catherine (Tadlock), Frank, Tom, Cynthia (Wilson), Page, Taylor, Sam, and Clara (Yerkes). Ellen's parents were Thomas and Permelia York Evans who came to Tennessee from Knox County, Kentucky. We would be thrilled to hear from any of their descendants. Their children included Hugh, Silas, Ellen, Mary (Phelps), Sintha, Thomas Milton, John, and Mary Ann. They were in Union County, TN, in 1880. Thomas Evans died in Anderson County in 1907 and is buried in Sunset Cemetary. The Nelson Reunion will be at the Farmers Grove Baptist Church Fellowship Hall on Saturday July 14, 2001, beginning about 11:00 A. M. in Clinton, Tennessee. There will be lots of fun and games for the kids to enjoy, and hopefully lots of pictures and genealogical material to be enjoyed by the older folks. And there's always lots of good food. For more information, contact Carolyn at <mamawcarolyn@ntown.com>. Hope to see you at the reunion. Carolyn Nelson Johnson

The East Tennessee Historical Society is unveiling a new family heritage program, Civil War Families of Tennessee. Civil War Families of Tennessee (CWFT) seeks to identify and honor the sacrifices of the valiant soldiers on both sides of the conflict. This lineage program will link current descendants with their Civil War ancestors, encourage new research, and combine the experiences of thousands of individuals and families to tell more fully the story of the Civil War in Tennessee. If you are a direct or collateral descendant of any individual who served in Tennessee during the Civil War-Union or Confederate-you are eligible for membership in CWFT. Service may have been in either a Tennessee unit or any non-Tennessee unit which was active in the state. Membership is also open through an ancestor who served elsewhere but lived in Tennessee either before, during, or after the war. In order to recognize the service of the many young men who died unwed and without children, CWFT offers membership through collateral descent also. Like its sister program, First Families of Tennessee, CWFT applications and membership files will be housed in the Calvin M. McClung Historical Collection (Knoxville, Tennessee) of the Knox County Public Library System where together the two projects will provide an unparalleled resource for family and historical research in the Volunteer State. CWFT members will receive a handsome certificate with the names of the applicant and the ancestor, along with the name of the ancestor's company and regiment. A roster of the members and their ancestors will eventually be published in book form. CWFT members will also be recognized at a grand reunion to be hosted by the East Tennessee Historical Society. For additional information about the Civil War Families of Tennessee project, including a downloadable application form, please visit the ETHS web site at www.east-tennessee-history.org. Anyone unable to download a form may request an application form by sending a stamped, self-addressed envelope to: Civil War Families of Tennessee c/o ETHS PO Box 1629 Knoxville, TN 37901-1629 Additional questions about the new CWFT project may also be addressed to civilwar@east-tennessee-history.org (Please note that ETHS does not provide email-based research assistance at this time.) The East Tennessee Historical Society, founded in 1834, is one of the oldest cultural institutions in the state of Tennessee. ETHS, a non-profit organization headquartered in Knoxville, is dedicated to preserving, interpreting, and promoting the history of East Tennessee. The society's programs and activities are made possible through the support of its membership. The society's First Families of Tennessee family heritage program was founded in 1992 and now includes more than 13,000 members in 50 states and eight foreign nations.

There will be a reunion for the descendants of John Johnson and wife Eliza Hensley Johnson at the Farmers Grove Baptist Church fellowship hall on Saturday, June 23rd. in Clinton, Tennessee Rev. John Johnson, son of John and Eliza, was the first pastor at Farmers Grove in 1897. Related family names include Farmer, Henderson, Clardy, and many others. For more information you may contact me at <mamawcarolyn@ntown.com>. Last year's reunion was a great success. There many family items displayed, including a Civil War sword, a quilt made by Eliza herself, minutes of the first Johnson Reunions in the 20's and 30's, and lots of photos. All friends and relatives are welcome. Carolyn Johnson mamawcarolyn@ntown.com

Kids Can Send Grandma To Camp This Summer This year, summer camp comes with a twist. Kids are invited to bring along an adult family member to participate in the East Tennessee Historical Society's summer genealogy camp. The camp will be held July 9-12 at the ETHS headquarters in the East Tennessee History Center in downtown Knoxville. The camp is designed for children age 9 to 13. Cost is $25 per child and $5 for each adult family member. At the camp, kids will enjoy learning methods to research their family tree, such as talking to relatives, using original records, visiting cemeteries and libraries, and meeting historical reenactors. Each participant (or sibling group) is invited to bring a family member with them to help as they "dig their roots." The week will include tours of the East Tennessee Historical Society and Museum, and participants will receive one-on-one instruction in using the Knox County Archives and the McClung Historical Collection. "We hope that parents or grandparents will help us develop an interest in preserving their family and community history," said Lisa Oakley, ETHS curator of education. "This camp will plant the seeds of interest in history in today's children." The camp is sponsored in part by Knoxville area Chick-Fil-A restaurants. The ETHS genealogy camp will be held at the East Tennessee History Center, 600 Market Street, Knoxville, from 9 a.m. to noon, July 9-12. Space is limited in the camp and pre-registration is required. To register, contact Lisa Oakley at oakley@east-tennessee-history.org or 865-215-8828. The East Tennessee Historical Society, founded in 1834, is one of the oldest cultural institutions in the state of Tennessee.

Hi. I am looking for information regarding my Condray ancestors. I have pretty much found my Pendergrass family, but if anyone has more to add, I would be delighted to hear from you. I am look for a Sterlin(g) Condray/Condry (spelled many ways), married to a Martha Unknown that are listed on the 1830 HC Census. Sterlin(g) is head of household and was born in 1811 in VA. Martha b. 1818 in TN. The children are: Jane, b. 1840; Diane, b. 1834 and Israel Alonzo, b. 1833. From what I understand the resided around the Soddy area. This Sterlin(g) family would be my gggrandparents. Alonzo married Amanda Jane Pendergrass (dau. of Hiram Pendergrass and Mary Hanna) in Soddy. Alonzo and Amanda had eight children, one of whom is my grandfather, Stephen Sterling Condray, b. 1856, HC. Stephen Sterling married Susan Frances Pendergrass (dau. of John Houston Pendergrass and Delphia Luvicie Riddle). John Houston is the brother to Amanda Jane Pendergrass. Delphia Luvicie Riddle was the dau. of Terry Riddle and Mary "Polly" Patterson. I would love to hear from any and all who might shed some light on my Condray family and also my Riddle family. They too are elusive. Thank you.
