This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Tweed Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/iQTBAIB/122 Message Board Post: My grandfather was George Herman Tweed in Spartanburg, SC. He was born in 1913. His father was William Allen Tweed, from Jonesville township in Union county, SC. His mother was Rhoda Rebecca Mabry, born 1870. I can find nothing on William Tweed. Any one out there know when/where he may have come from? Thanks so much, Russell ([email protected])

Dear All: The message below is from Sue on the TSL list and she states the situation quite clearly. The difficulty is that the attachment may not show or there is a false extension. It appears to have xxx.doc or xx.txt but the real extension ( .scr.or .exe) is 59 spaces to the right. So even if you get a email from a trusted source ( me or others) and there is no message etc, be very careful. It will also show about 29 or 30k as the size of the message. So that is a dead giveaway in that there is 30 k of message and it doesn't show up anyway . I have also received a mumber of these and have advised some of you of the problem. We will correspond to make sure your computer is clean before resubscribing. If anyone receives one of these virus transmissions from a member: A: advise the list of the name B: send me the name and email address and mail list. Best Regards John A Hansen [email protected] List Admin Forwarded message Many of you will remember the "badtrans" virus last August. People seemed to wise-up about that one, but now there is another _strain_ of the badtrans virus called [email protected] and I have received quite a few of them ... some from current list members. I am Bcc'ing those list members whose computers are infected, so if you receive a copy of this message without the [TSL] prepend, please quickly go to the link below to learn how to clean the virus out of your computer. You will NEVER receive a virus through the list, but if listmembers get infected, their computer may send you the virus, which _may_ have a list subject line. My Norton "anti-virus" program is doing a very good job of detecting, but Norton doesn't seem to have a complete write-up about this one. They do mention the file extensions etc., but they don't mention how the email will appear or whether there is a message or not. My experience has been that only one has arrived with a subject line from a list post, the others simply have a "Re:" in the subject line. I have seen no message (but maybe Norton is deleting that too) Most of those I have received have come from Australian or New Zealand email addresses, so they must have gotten it first. Also, I don't know whether my Norton is doing this (the write-up doesn't say) but the email addresses of the sending computers is altered by having an underline character preceeding the address, such as <[email protected]> PLEASE remember to make sure you have up-to-date Anti Virus software, AND remember to update the Virus definitions regularly. There are a lot of good Anti Virus programs out there (I use Norton) but they aren't any good unless you update them. You can read about this virus and how to remove it from your system on the Norton Symantec site ... http://www.symantec.com/avcenter/ http://www.symantec.com/avcenter/venc/data/[email protected] Sue --

Dear All: Some volunteers from the society of the Daughters of the American Revolution ( DAR) have established a wonderful new program for users of Rootsweb. These volunteers will do lookups in their database and records if you think one of your ancestors served in some capacity during the American Revolution. These volunteers have more databases that are available to them than the ones commonly used by the search engines. The process is fairly simple : Go to the DAR message board: There are two ways to do that: > www.rootsweb.com > message boards > topics > organizations and societies > DAR Or if you want the easy way :-) http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec?htx=board&r=rw&p=topics.organizations.dar Address your message as follows: subject : DAR Lookup > surname> location > dates In the body of the message put the information regarding the person, Be sure to fill out the surnames box at the bottom since the new search engine will be keying on that item. Leave the email response box checked and you will be notified when the DAR volunteers respond . Give them a week or so to get to your request. We really appreciate their efforts. This info can be key for: a: joining these prestigious organizations ( DAR & SAR) b: sending a request for the copies of the files that were submitted and the information they have available. Many thanks to: Glenda Thompson DAR VIS Volunteer Vice Chrm. Patriot Lookup for organizing this effort and all the many volunteers that are donating their time and effort to us instead of pursuing their own ancestors, Best Regards John A Hansen DAR board admin. BTW: Please forward this message to other lists and boards that each of you are involved in. A word of thanks to each volunteer that does this work and especially the one that responds to your post would probably be highly appreciated.

I'm a descendant of Hannah Onor GUNTER thru her daughter, Lucinda. Lucinda had Polly, Polly married Winfield Scott CHANDLER and had Sophronia (Fronie) who married Mitchell GOSNELL. Fronie and Mitch had Lucretia (Creasy) who married Isaac "Ike" PAYNE and had Evelyn. Evelyn married James Freeman TWEED and had me, Sally.

Thanks to everyone who responded to my inquiry abought A.W.H. Tweedell. I came across a LIST of surnames studies. A ‘One Name Study' was done for Tweddle/Tweed/Tweedie/Tweedle/Tweedy/Twiddy information from 1300 to now. The date of this entry was 5 Feb 1995. The name tag for the study was ‘atweedie'. I sent an inquiry to [email protected] who was listed as the contact person for the list information and received a responce that the ‘atweedie' name tag was no longer an active address. I would like to know if anyone is familiar with this name study and can help me locate the information. Thanks Hank Tweedell

My family name is TWEEDELL, some older papers spelled TWEEDLE. My oldest direct ancestor is Alexander Washington Holbert TWEEDELL b. 16 Aug 1812 d. 26 Jul 1901 GA, wife Sara Moore b. 1813 d. 3 Aug 1877 GA. In most documents his name was found as A. W. H. Tweedell. According to family information he was born in the Athens, GA area, per census information lived in Butts Co GA and died in Gordon Co GA. He was a Methodist preacher and teacher. I have information on all of his descendants but I can not trace his root any further back, any information on this line would be greatly appreciated. Hank Tweedell

Hi, For the longest time I thought I was the only subscriber to this list. Just curious - how many others are there? Should we have a roll call or something? I am researching the Tweed line - 1700's in Pennsylvania. (John Tweed married Sarah Wilson). (John Tweed born 1748 (?) died 1806. Buried Warrior Run Cemetery). (Rev. War - Cumberland county). Kindly, Susan Houston

Hi Listers! I am a subscriber to this mail list, and I wanted to let all of the list know that it is an "adoptable" mail list. In other words, it needs an Administrator. I would do so, but I already administer 5 other lists. If someone would like to volunteer, you need to be a financial contributor to rootsweb and agree to their policies. I can point you to the site to volunteer. Send me an e-mail if interested. Thanks for listening! Richard Kearns

Greetings Tweed list subscribers, I am a new subscriber today. I have traced my husband's line to the wife of Mitchell Alexander Chandley b.1845. He and Ruth Tweed were married 31 Oct 1867. Ruth Tweed b.1844, dau. of Thomas Tweed b.1820, son of James "Jimmy" Tweed of Ireland, son of William "Billy" Tweed also of Ireland. I found these details online at the LDS Family Search site yesterday and have not yet assembled any documentation. Are any of you subscribers familiar with this Western NC group of Tweeds? Does anyone have additional information on William and son James prior to their migration? Thank you for your thoughts on this matter, Lisa Rose Binkley Chandley
