She has been dead since Oct. 1864. Absalom was my uncle. I have heard my father and my aunt Mrs. ALLEN, say they had sold their interest to Absolom for the benefit of Kezia.... I reckon Mrs. ALLEN has been a widow some 7 or 8 years. Her husband died just before the war commenced, I think her husband was living in July 1855 the date of the deed purporting to be from Elizabeth ALLEN to Absolom LASSATER. I do not think Fanny BARKER was a married woman in 1853. She is not married now... A man by the name of BUTLER, a preacher of the gospel, did rent the land. He is dead now...." /S/ Wm. M.

I am looking for information about the children of Charles David Ivie and his wife, Judith Wood. They were married 11 Aug 1834 in Rutherford County. Judith Wood was the daughter of Edmund and Elizabeth Johns Wood. Charles David Ivie and Judith Wood appear to have had at least 12 children, including Thomas Glover Ivie, Henry J. Ivie (married Roxanna Jackson), Charles D. Ivie and Benjamin Ivie. Judith Wood Ivie died prior to 1860 and Charles David Ivie married Jennie Warren sometime after 1860. It does not appear that there were children born to this marriage. If anyone has information about the Charles David Ivie family, please let me know. Bob Newsome

Tom. I believe we have communicated before and know definitely from your interest that we are kin. I would be glad to share any information that you need that I have with you. I have information on all these lines. I was raised in Wilson County and now live in Rutherford County. I can check out any information that you need as I have access to the libraries and archives in both counties. Sarah J.

My Christian line begins with the Thomas Christian, I, the "immigrant ancestor." If this is your line, please let me know and I will be glad to share the information I have. It goes like: The earliest ancestor, Thomas Christian (ca 1636-after 1894), patented land in Charles City County, Virginia in 1687. He had four sons: Thomas (b. ca 1684); Charles; James (b ca 1692-bef 1752); and John. Samuel Preston Christian (b.ca 1844) son of abner Early Christian and his wife, who also was his cousin, Martha Early Preston was born in Wilson County, Tennessee. He married 1865 Mary E. Estes, daughter of Mathew Estes and Fanny Lasater. He inherited the Preston estate from his mother and managed it until his death in 1918. He had six children born in Wilson County, Tennessee. Sarah J.

Just a quick note. My ggg-grand-uncle was the first white man to marry in Wilson County. That seems like such a long time ago! His name was (can't recall the name)someone Harpole. His brother was Martin Harpole. That line was mine...Martin, etc. Mari Harpole Byers At 07:10 PM 10/15/2006, you wrote: >Tom. >I believe we have communicated before and know definitely from your interest >that we are kin. > >I would be glad to share any information that you need that I have with you. > I have information on all these lines.

The big deal is that it will allow rootsweb to run the system for a few more years. I would imagine that it is cheaper than the older system and newer. For some reason it doesn't like HTML in signature lines. The problem is the posts don't bounce back to me where I can allow them through like other posts do so I have no way of knowing who is having a problem, unless like Pat, they write and say, "what the heck is going on." Once the migration is done, it will hopefully work right. Notice now that all our emails are bouncing and then the server is sending them on. Once the transition is complete, that won't be on the messages any more.

I also have Watts and Ball lines. The Ball line is from George's Mom. Of course, George had no children so there goes that. My Watts and Cannon lines came from Laurens County, SC. We finally decided that buying more than one very nice gift for Christmas and/or birthday is just silly and too expensive! We find really good stuff so it's fine. Not that it has anything to do with anything :) Mari At 03:12 PM 10/15/2006, you wrote: >Ball , Jordan , Crouse , Watts > >Carolyn Manker Lawrence > > >------------------------------- > >To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to > TNRUTHER-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the > quotes in the subject and the body of the message > > > > > > > > > > >------------------------------- >To unsubscribe from the list, please send an email to >TNRUTHER-request@rootsweb.com with the word 'unsubscribe' without the >quotes in the subject and the body of the message > > > >-- >No virus found in this incoming message. >Checked by AVG Free Edition. >Version: 7.1.408 / Virus Database: 268.13.4/476 - Release Date: 10/14/2006 No virus found in this outgoing message.

I was wondering about the name Spotswood. Then it hit me! The gov. of Va. was Gov. Spotswood. This was wayyyyyyy back in the 1600s or early 1700s. I'll have to find my Burwell book. I wonder if they used that name from the Gov. Mari At 10:17 AM 10/15/2006, you wrote: >Hello Nancy > >Delilah Davis and Elizabeth Davis both married Jones men - as you probably >know.

Mary Richardson who I believe was Mary Talley Richardson, sister of her next door neighbor, Pleasant Talley. They were mentioned in their father's will, Happy Talley of Franklin Co VA. Mary's household in 1820 was: 2 males under 10 1 female under 10 1 female 16 to 25 (Mary) Do you know if this Talley/Richardson connection was related to your Richardsons at all?

Ginger, I am looking for a Steel/Steele, first name unknown, that Elizabeth Jetton White married probably about 1828. This was a second marriage for her and she would have been in her mid-fifties in 1828. Elizabeth's first marriage was to Thomas White abt. 1799 in NC. and they migrated to Rutherford Co., TN. around 1805. Thomas White died in 1811. Linda Linda, Who is in your Steel line? I have Steele in my line. Nancy STEELE married to Charles M. HALLl. Her brother Samuel STEELE was the father of James STEELE who married Judidah H. WOOD and Rebecca STEELE who married Thomas J. WOOD - both of these are my WOOD line. I've found the name in records as "Steele" and "Steel" among other variations. Ginger

Check to see if you signature line has any HTML in it. The new server apparently is having trouble with HTML in signature lines. One thing you can do is like me is delete the HTML altogether, or you can make it text only without a hyper link. That is very hard to do with Outlook. If you have tried to post and haven't seen your message, you can reach me at TNRUTHER-admin@rootsweb.com or privately at cheasa@bellsouth.net. I am working with Pat Vance to try and get her posts working and I want everyone to be able to post to the list without troubles. Teresa Ghee Elliott
