Could some one please tell me is "Copper Hill" in parts of Tennessee or in North Carolina? I have heard of both. If it is in NC where do you go for the census look up.? Thanks Peggy psueg@bellsouth.net

Could any one do a look up for these Gaddis. Any cemetery's, census, or death or birth records. We do not live in the state of Tennessee and need some help. We can not find any thing on this people. Thanks. Doc Gaddis Joe Gaddis Ellis Gaddis William Lucallen Gaddis Eva, or Annie Gaddis married a Wm. W. Dockery in Gilmer Co. Ga. Their parents were Jake and Nancy Gaddis, have been reported born in Ga. and Ireland. But the children we think might have been born in Ga. or Tennessee. Their birthdays should be around 1860's to 1870's. Can any one help. We also are hunting a Hubert and Annie Gaddis. Thanks http://hometown.aol.com/suepegsue/myhomepage/heritage.html psueg@bellsouth.net Peggy Sue O'Shields-Gaddis

Thanks, Connie, for mentioning our new publication on the list - they're selling well and anyone who is interested may contact me at <presswood@wingnet.net> We will also be happy to do an errata sheet if anyone finds errors they would like corrected. The only ones we know of so far are minor ones such as pages 115 and 117 that have a mixed-up header/footer. It should be a continuation of district 11. Also, John Yates is on page 83 instead of 85. Marian Bailey Presswood Polk County Historian & Pres. PCHGS

FYI...For all of you who ordered these books, they should be in your mailbox any day now. Thanks go to all the volunteers & the Polk County Historical & Genealogical Society for getting this info in book form. We can finally find a lot of the people we lost between 1880 & 1920. I am amazed at the number of relatives I have located!! GREAT WORK PCHGS!! Sincerely, Connie Baumann Asst.

Good morning, Everyone! Just wanted to pass on that the Polk County, TN 1900 census is now printed and available for shipping. The PCH&GS has done a great job (once again!) of making printed material available on Polk County. And, just a reminder, they have the 1840-1910 census available for sale. Contact Marian presswood@wingnet.net The index can be viewed at http://www.tngennet.org/polk/p_1900.htm The information contained on the 1900 census includes head of household, all people living in the household, age, their relationship to the head of house, month and year of birth, number of years married, state of birth of self, father and mother.

Ancestry's 1890 Census Substitute Perhaps you have heard about Ancestry's effort to string together a number of sources of basic information which could bridge the gap left by the destruction of the 1890 US Census. As the various bits are put online (mostly city directories, but also tax lists, voter registration lists, etc), they will be searchable for free for a few weeks. So it might be worthwhile to visit this url weekly. 1890 Federal Census Substitute (First Installment) http://www.ancestry.com/search/rectype/census/1890sub/main.htm Sincerely, Connie Baumann Asst.

I forward this for those of us who have families that ventured over county lines <g>.... > Hello Listers, > I am slowly converting my book, Gourds Don't Rust, to HTML and placing it on the web for any one to read and use. It contains old family letters and items from the 1870s on. There are also some family narratives given to me, for the book, by family members. I don't know when I'll finish, but you can bookmark the core page and check back occaisionally. You will find a number of things concerning Fannin County history there as well as what happened to many Fannin residents who moved away. CAT, can you add this URL to the Fannin Page?

East Tennessee Historical Society Hosts Genealogy Conference and Family Reunion Celebration The sons and daughters of Tennessee's pioneer founders are heading home this Memorial Day weekend. The East Tennessee Historical Society (ETHS) is hosting a weekend-long genealogy conference and family history fair, May 26-28, in Knoxville, Tennessee. A highlight of the conference will be a "family reunion" of members of the society's family heritage project, First Families of Tennessee (FFT)the debut of a new First Families of Tennessee book. Guests attending the conference will face a wide variety of options and activities, including a two-day genealogy conference featuring national and regional experts, a family history fair and street party in downtown Knoxville, motorcoach tours of historic East Tennessee sites, and a "family reunion" dinner at the home of Tennessee's first governor, John Sevier. The genealogy conference, held at Knoxville's Hilton Hotel, May 26-27, will examine Southeastern "roots and routes" - focusing on our ancestors and their migrations into and out of East Tennessee. Guest speakers will discuss a variety of topics including Scots-Irish research, Cherokee genealogy, Tennessee land records, Tennesseans in the California gold rush, frontier religion, and more. Experts will also discuss research topics in states associated with Tennessee's earliest residents, including Alabama, Georgia, Kentucky, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, and Virginia. Descendants of Tennessee's first families will celebrate the publication of the East Tennessee Historical Society's newest book, First Families of Tennessee: A Register of Early Settlers and Their Descendants. The book, a tribute to the ancestors enrolled in the FFT project, will include names and vital stats of the more than 2,000 ancestors enrolled in the project, along with a registry of FFT members. The book will be unveiled in a special ceremony and will be available for purchase at the history conference. Guest speakers will include Dr. George K. Schweitzer, Charles Sherrill of the Tennessee State Library and Archives, Russell Baker, Robert Davis, historian Walter Durham, and other experts on a variety of genealogical and historical topics. In addition to the multi-track genealogy conference, ETHS will host a genealogy and family history fair featuring mini-workshops for beginners, vendor displays, tours of local historic sites, carriage and trolley rides in downtown Knoxville, and living history demonstrations. The fair will also include a downtown street party outside the historical society's headquarters with live music, dramatic performances, historic reenactments, children's activities and more. While the theme of the weekend will be built around a family reunion of First Families of Tennessee members, attendance at all the events is open to anyone with an interest in history and genealogy. The First Families of Tennessee was founded by the East Tennessee Historical Society in 1993 to honor the state's early residents and to recognize their descendants. The program is open to those who can prove descent from a person living in any part of Tennessee by 1796. Housed in Knoxville's Calvin M. McClung Historical Collection, the First Families of Tennessee files provide a one-of-a-kind resource for historical and genealogical research.
