In a message dated 8/30/2006 11:51:32 A.M. Eastern Standard Time, kim.clark@adelphia.net writes: Death Certificate #12560 County of Buckingham District of Maysville Name: Sara Alice Waller (could be Walker but I think its Waller) Female, White, Widower Date of Birth: October 1848 80 years, 7 months Occupation: Housewife Father: Washington Fitzgerald (born Buckingham) Mother: Judith Chenault (born Buckingham) Date of Death: May 6, 1929 Burial: Buckingham on 5/8/1929 J.E.Rush of Toga, informant. Yes, Sarah Alice FITZGERALD did marry a WALLER. Don't know first name, but they had a daughter named Eva E. WALLER who married Joseph Edward RUSH who was the s/o George Thomas RUSH & Mildred Remley FITZGERALD. Joseph Edward RUSH was the informant of his mother-in-law's death. Now the question is whether Washington FITZGERALD's wife was a CHENAULT or a WARINNER. Does anyone know? Ruby Talley Smith

This may be of interest but it differs from your info Ruby. I sent another certificate earlier on Bolivia Ranson, however, I have not seen it come through the list. Sometimes that get caught up in cyberspace for several hours tho. Death Certificate #12560 County of Buckingham District of Maysville Name: Sara Alice Waller (could be Walker but I think its Waller) Female, White, Widower Date of Birth: October 1848 80 years, 7 months Occupation: Housewife Father: Washington Fitzgerald (born Buckingham) Mother: Judith Chenault (born Buckingham) Date of Death: May 6, 1929 Burial: Buckingham on 5/8/1929 J.E.Rush of Toga, informant.

This is the only other certificate I have that pertains to this particular line that I can find right now. County of Buckingham Town of Dillwyn Name: Bolivia Alfonso Ranson Male, White, Married Date of Birth: February 13, 1853 59 years, 5 months, 10 days Occupation: Jeweler/Merchant Father: H.T. Ranson (born Buckingham County) Mother: Mattie Virginia Anderson (born Buckingham County) Date of Death: July 23, 1912 F.Lee Ranson of Dillwyn (Informant) No burial information is provided

Elizabeth "Bettie" Alice RANSON was born 22 Jul 1856. She married Emmett Washington FITZGERALD on 23 Dec 1871. He was a son of Washington FITZGERALD and Judith Ann WARINNER. "Bettie"'s parents were Rev Henry Trent RANSON and Caroline Virginia ANDERSON. Her daughter, who was the informant of her death was Nora Estelle FITZGERALD who married Radford Bennett RANSON Sr. He was the son of Ballevia Alfonzo RANSON and Martha E. DUNEVANT. Ruby Talley Smith

Any information about the Fitzgerald/Ranson/Anderson line would be greatly appreciated. Estelle Ranson (informant) was my paternal grandmother. Mrs. E. W. Fitzgerald (Elizabeth or Bettie) is her mother. Her birthplace is listed as Withville, West Virginia, which I don't see on the map. Could this be Wytheville, Virginia? Other ideas? Thank you Kim!

Sheila, Rootsweb will delete any post that has, what it considers to be, advertising. I guess the correct way you should post a bible or envelope that is on ebay is to say something to the affect: "I have found a bible that might be connected to such a surname, please email me privately for more information." Never say anything about it being on ebay in a post or else the post will be deleted by Rootsweb staff. Bob Sanders list administrator

Thank you for your helpful suggestion. My goal is to help when I can and I believe your phrasing should work well.

Hello Gregg- I'm not sure how you ended up with part of a message I sent only to Ruby, but thank you for your response regardless. I checked several times to find my posted message (even under my name as author) and couldn't find it. But I'm glad they decided to let it in - I was rather excited to see the name on the envelope and at second glance I wasn't sure I had read it correctly. Rootsweb pulled a posting of mine once when I pointed out a family bible for sale on ebay that I knew would be of great interest to several people belonging to another county group. Thank you also for the name history. Where does one go to learn such things? I will save what you wrote.

Envelope found Sheila, Thanks for pointing out the Apperson envelope for sale at ebay. I hope someone can make some use of it. I can only say that it does appear to me to read "Apperson". However, your suggestion that your message regarding it not being posted is false. Your message appears both on the APPERSON message board (http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/ZGB.2ACEB/110), and in the archives of APPERSON-L (http://archiver.rootsweb.com/th/read/APPERSON/2006-08/1156664183), the latter being posted some 36 hours prior to your message (see below) regarding same to VABUCKIN-L. The names Epperson and Apperson are both derivatives of the Danish patronymic name for the relatively common Danish given name of Jesper...i.e., JESPERSEN (note that the "J" is pronounced like a "Y"). Names like "Jesper Jespersen" can be found in Denmark at least as early as the 1550s. The early American records for this family will mostly be written as Apperson, Aperson, Epperson, Eppeson, Eperson, and Epecen. The same name has been derivatized to the more Germanic form JASPERSEN in places like Schleswig-Holstein (now part of Germany, but once part of Denmark). Best, Gregg Bonner Bethany, Oklahoma, USA Sheila Spencer Lein wrote: I later received an email saying that my email was being held for review because I wasn't a member of that group - now I see they did not post it at all.

Hi Ruby- I see your name quite often and always appreciate your input - the Spencer line is my pursuit, with interest in the Epperson family too. Last week I placed an inquiry into the Apperson group on Rootsweb asking for help with the name on an envelope being auctioned on Ebay. The name looked like Apperson to me, but the old writing style is difficult to decipher sometimes. The envelope was early 1800's. I later received an email saying that my email was being held for review because I wasn't a member of that group - now I see they did not post it at all.

Thanks, Larry! The question I have concerning Stephen's wife, Sarah, is whether or not her maiden name was "Brown." That is what I have in my records as well, but now that has come into question until I can find a record or further clues that her name was indeed Brown. Do you know where that information came from? Look forward to hearing from you and others on this matter. Dave --- Larry Hallstrom <uva64lgh@msn.com> wrote: > Dave, > I have the wife of Stephen A.
