Dear Cheryl, I've been away for a little while, in catching up on my email, I noticed your post. I have a mystery Savage and I am curious to know who he is. My Hill line has a small family cemetery in Campbell Co. In this cemetery there is a Paris Savage laid to rest there. (I have to dig in my paperbound desk to give you the dates.) You wouldn't happen to have info on any Paris that has showed up in your research would you? I haven't been able to find out his connection with our Hill line or how he came to be buried in our cemetery. Oh by the way "YES! I would be most appreciative if you would check your census book for a few of my family's names if you wouldn't mind. I would like to get in touch with you later with a couple of names. My gg-grandfather is supposed to have had a twin brother who was sent to live with relatives for awhile after his father was killed. His mother tried to locate him later to reunite the boys but was unsuccessful for some reason. Family lore says he went to live with a Weaver family, but we aren't really sure of that. If I remember right it all took place very close around 1850 but I will double check dates before I have you check. Smiles to you, :) Wanda On Sat, 16 Jan 1999 10:01:51 you wrote: Hello: First, I hope I'm sending this to the right list address... :-/ My name is Cheryl McGonegal and I'm researching the Savage family of Union County. The census info available on the net shows the following Savages in Union County between 1860 and 1880. 1860 - A. (Andrew Jackson?); Elisha; Jeremiah, Rhoddy H. (Rodney Hanna Savage); William 1870 - A.J. (Andrew Jackson?); Arvel; Elisha; Jemiah; John; Mardlous (Marcillis Moss?); R.H. (Rodney Hanna); William 1880 - Andrew (Andrew Jackson?); Daniel; Elisha; Jerry; John; Martha; Moss (Marcillis Moss); Pheby; Roda; Thomas; William I have been told that the book by Dr. Wilson shows that Jeremiah Savage, b. 1771 in Maryland, m. Margaret Hanna, b. 1773 in N.C. Their son, Rodney Hanna Savage, m. Margaret Hundley around 1829 and they had a daughter, Mary Polly Savage, b. 12/20/1831. Have ordered this book but haven't received it yet. A distant relative told me that Rodney & Margaret also had a son, Andrew Jackson Savage, b. 1829, but the Wilson book only mentions the one daughter. Andrew Jackson Savage is my gg-grandfather. His son, Marcillis Moss, my g-grandfather, and his son, Daniel, my grandfather. I got this info from a gedcom on the internet. The Sistler 1850 cross-index census of TN shows that Andrew Jackson Savage, age 20, was living with the Daniel Heath family in Campbell County in 1850. Am trying to find any info I can on any of these folks, especially how they are related to each other. Also, if this 1850 TN Census book will help anyone in their searches, let me know. It only covers surnames H-Z of folks who were living with TN families with different surnames than theirs in 1850, but it was on sale so I bought the one volume. Thanks. Cheryl
