Can anyone give me the location or locations of any Dalton Family Cemeteries in Carroll Co, Va? I am interested in any, but especially the ones in Hillsville. If detailed directions could be provided also, it would be greatly appreciated. We are planning a trip to the area in April. Thanks.

Ms Craiger, I have not run across this name in my Carroll research. He is not reflected in the county death records, nor did I find him in the list of Civil War casualties from Carroll. I did not find his wife's name in the pension records of the county. I also checked the marriage records and did not find that any of their children married in the county. He is listed in the regimental rolls as having served in Company A and enlisting 2/29/1862. Sorry I can't help you with any information on Liberty Hill. best regards, Ron Hall "Lori Craiger" <uni62corn@hotm To: VACARROL-L@rootsweb.com ail.com> cc: (bcc: Ronald W. Hall/US-Corporate/3M/US) Subject: [VACARROL] Liberty Hill, VA-Civil War 03/18/2002 11:37 PM Hello, I am new to this list. I am searching for information on my husband's great-grandfather, Andrew Miller. He served in the Civil War with the 29th VA Infantry. His wife, Catharine, filled out an application for a pension as his widow in 1888. The reason I am posting to this list is that she stated he died at Liberty Hill, VA of Typhoid Fever. She failed to put the date though. I think Liberty Hill was/is in Carroll County. I was hoping someone on this list could tell me if it is and if there is any information about this Civil War regiment being there. Was there a battle at Liberty Hill? I don't know if Andrew was with his regiment when he died or not. I just know that I have no record of he and Catharine living there so I am assuming it was while he was in the war. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hi List, I am researching the line of John Stewart born ca 1724-1730, died Surry Co NC March 1807, married Rachel.

Joseph Stuart born ca 1772 in VA. married Margaret Dean, supposed sister of Howell Harrison Dean and Henry Harrison Dean by 1795. Joseph's sons and daughters married into the Rotten, Payne, Hawks, Francis families of that area. Joel Stuart, son of Joseph and Margaret Stuart married Millia Rotten/Roddan in Grayson Co Va. April 1821, sons and dau! ghters of this couple married into the Patton, Scott, Daughtery, Payne, Hawks families.

Our Stuarts were in Surry Co since 1774, Nathaniel Steward, oldest son of John and Rachel was found on the 1774 Surry Co Nc tax list for "Humphries District", this area was almost on the VA. border. Any information appreciated. Kind regards, Teresa Stuart de Rios doriss@telesal.net

I would like to know if anyone knows of, or has the "Hillsville Virginian" newspaper in hardcopy or microfilm for Nov 1891. I am looking for articles about the suicide death of my great grandfather Philip T. Beamer and other articles surrounding the controversy. He had been the Treasurer for Carroll County and had been accused of mishandling and/or embezzling money. I have two other newspaper articles, one from the "Wytheville Dispatch" and one from "The Times" Richmond paper. Both reference articles from the "Hillsville Virginian". The Library of VA has the newspaper on microfilm, but not the dates I need. The Antiquarian Society has a hardcopy of it, but much earlier than I need. Philip T. Beamer died 16 Nov 1891. Thanks, Susan Beamer, sbeamer@mail.ewu.edu

Hi! In your sources, do you see anything concerning Sarah BEDSAUL, b. around 1807, daughter of Daniel BEDSAUL and Catherine EDWARDS? She was placed by court order (Jan 26, 1808) in the home of the John GREEN family (along with her older brother, John Lowry b. 1802), when Daniel was arrested for stealing a horse. I am told that the GREEN family moved away from Grayson County, and I would like to verify what happened to Sarah. Also, if anyone has a clue, I would like to know WHY the John GREEN family would have been chosen to take in the BEDSAUL children? Were they related, somehow? Thanks!

Hi Ron, A John Vachel Mabe married Alice Emeline Lawson Aug 7, 1889 in Carroll co., Va. Alice was a sister to my g grandfather Charles Johnson Lawson. Alice is listed as a widow in the 1920 Carroll Co., N. C. census for sulphur Springs. She is living with her mother Sarah Lawson. I think he was the son of William and Prudence Mabe. Carol

Ron, The information I've found shows that they were both sons of William Mabe and Prudence King.??? I haven't researched this family myself, but have found several sites that list both John Henry and John Vachel as their sons. For the best site I've found on the Mabe family, check out James Edward Mabe's web site Descendants of William Mabe at: http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/m/a/b/James-E-Mabe/index.html This page has info on the William Mabe you're asking about: http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/m/a/b/James-E-Mabe/BOOK-0001/0002 -0021.html#IND8474REF15 darlene ----- Original Message ----- From: <rwhall@mmm.com> To: <VACARROL-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, January 04, 2002 10:18 AM Subject: [VACARROL] William Mabe > Can anyone help me out with the children of William Mabe and Prudence King? > > I'm confused primarily about his son, John.

Also, would be interested if you could tell me how to go about two things; 1. find my father's police and court records in Carroll County 2. How to find out what his father left in trust for him. I know Dad was arrested and jailed sometime in 1931(when I was up to six months old) and got out sometime in late 1931 or early 1932. I don't know what he was jailed for. Also, I believe he was arrested when he was between 16 and 18 for shooting across a county road and perhaps more. A couple of family members say Dad didn't tell the whole story about this incident and claim that in addition to shooting across a county road, he shot the sheriff's horse with him on it and then went to Cosely Goad's, borrowed his horse and rode back to West Virginia where he was working. Per those relatives, he finally hired a lawyer and paid a substantial fine so as to come back to Carroll county to visit his sisters. ???????? Tom

Sometime ago, I started collecting data for a book on the numerous murders in Carroll with the intention of donating it to the Historical Society. I haven't yet put all the data into a book, but thought perhaps some on the list might enjoy reading about them. Also, hopefully some descendants out there might have further information on the events or people involved. I tried sending out one the other day, but it would not go because (as Freddie Spradlin wrote me back) the file was too large. Anyone interested in the killing of Andrew Collier by Floyd Sutphin (son of Isabelle) for stalking his sister can email me and I'll send it as an attachment to an email. This particular one happened in 1865 just after the end of the war when Floyd came home from the army. best regards, Ron Hall
