Hi Folks, I am curious about Gutheridge Lyons who was in either Montgomery Co. or Dickson Co. somewhere around 1820-1825. The name "Lyon/Lyons" is very prevalent throughout my Rook line dating as far back as 1735 in Northampton Co., NC down through late 1880's in Marshall Co., MS. There are several references to a Nancy Lyon(s) who married John Rook supposedly in TN around 1800 or perhaps a little earlier than that in Northampton Co., NC and then went to Montgomery Co. with her husband John. Can anyone give me some ideas about this Lyon(s) line? Jean Hancock in TX

Hi Folks, Does anyone have an Ambrose Martin md. to a Mary Trotter in either Montgomery or Dickson Co. in your family? I am interested in Mary and wonder if you have this person do you have anything which shows who her parents were? Also am interested in George Trotter, John Trotter, and a John Trotter in connection with Mary. Thanks, Jean Hancock in TX

I was sent this by a friend and it sure makes sense to me. I did it so you won't see them in my forwarded mail! I am so glad I have such computer smart friends because I would never have figured this one out! This should help us so much when we get info from others and want to pass it along on our lists. Now, if we can just find a solution for eliminating all those "forwarded addresses"!<G> Jean EVERYONE....go to your Tools, Options, Send, Mail Sending Format...click the settings ( either HTML and/or Plain Text ) and take that "indent message on reply" or "indent original text with > when replying or forwarding" OUTTTTTT!!!!!! >G< Lets stop this >>>>>>>> monster!

In the 1850c index for Smith, there is a Rufus Smith listed in Montgomery Co. Fielding Smith 28 Caroline 23 Andrew J 3 Rufus 5/12 T T, MT-658-358 My Ggrandfather Rufas A Smith, stated in the 1880c for Boone Co. Ar. that he was born in 1846 in TN. Is any one searching this family, and if so do you have anything on this Rufus listed as a child. I would like to know if they were still there in 1860. Thanks, Kathleen

Jeff Are you also a Welker? See I am not a Swift but as you can tell Evan T married a Welker. She is probably a sister to William M Welker, my g-g-g-grandfather. He was born in MD, his parents in PA. His parents names are uncertain. Matilda was born in MD. Probable sister, Anna was born 1821, KY. I think I saw a John Welker in the 1820 KY census. John Welker must not have been in KY long. As Matilda was born in 1819 MD and another probable child, John William was born in 1822, an alternate child Phoebe was born in 1822. That would only leave a two or three year gap between Matilda and John William. This is another line that I wish I had more info for. A cousin of mine, who does not have proof, thinks William M, 1810, Thomas, 1813, Matilda, 1819, Anna, 1821 KY, John William, 1822 TN, and Jacob G, 1829, TN were siblings. Further, that Phoebe Ann, 1822 TN, George W, 1824 TN, Joseph A, 1826, and Sarah Jane, 1827 TN were siblings. Remember, no proof that I am aware of. Anyway, if she is right, one set of these is the children of Jacob and the other set are the children of John. William
