Does anyone know anything about a William Costello Mills married to a lady named Charlotte. I don't know when or where they were married. Maybe about 1833 in Ohio. They had a son named Sylvester Mills, b. abt. 1834 in Ohio m. Peredine Roop, d/o James W. Roop and Elizabeth Earl, married Aug. 30, 1855 in Floyd Co. Sylvester was born in Ohio Other children were: Sarah m. Noah Sink - 1858 - Franklin Co. Mary James m. Sally Maxey - 1874 - Franklin Co. John Joseph Emily Costello Mills was surety for marriage of Miles Gibson and Minerva Bocock, Sept. 03, 1833 in Franklin Co. William Costello Mills probably died between 1852 (last child born) and 1860. (not on the census - his wife Charlotte Mills listed as HOH) Charlotte moved to Floyd Co. *Next Door* to Anderson Mills. In 1860 Census, living with her were her children, Joseph, Mary and Sarah. When Sylvester Mills married he listed his parents as Costello and Charlotte Mills. When Sarah Mills married she listed her parents as Charlotte Mills - Father Unknown. When James was married he listed his parents as Cosley and Charlotte Mills Thanks for any help. Barb S.
I am developing a website for Virginia Counties and need someone that is familiar with this counties information to take a look and see if anything needs to be corrected or added. I especially need the website and physical addresses of the Local Genealogical and Historical Societies. Its located at http://www.segenealogy.com/virginia/vacnty07htm I also have a map of the available censuses by state on a US map for all census years through 1920 at http://www.segenealogy.com/sgo03.htm If you have a website feel free to link to anything we have. Thanks in advance. Becky Southeastern Genealogy Online www.segenealogy.com

Does anyone know if membership records (or other records) still exist for this church back as far as the 1780's? Thanks Edna Clack
Regarding the questions on Pigg River Primitive Baptist Church: Yes, it still exists (founded in 1773); holds monthly services; and has a well-maintained cemetery. Some of the grave markers in the old section of the cemetery date back to the early 1800s. Others (field stones) are illegible. The church is located on State Route 750, if my memory serves correctly, about 2-3 miles off SR 602 (Ferrum-Callaway Road). Lane

Am a bit late, but had shut down for three days. A map of Franklin Co. by a man named Bucholtz as it was in 1859 is in the VA State Library. Reproductions appear in several books, but I have it from the 1787 Personal Property Tax List publication by Yantis and Love. Snow Creek is in the southeast corner of the county and it flows southwest nearly all the way to the Henry line. It has many branches coming off from each side. The origin of the creek itself seems to be out of the Pig River (with one g) over in Pittsylvania County. Before reaching Franklin there is a big branch which flows south on the east side of a small mountain and that branch was named Turkey Cock Branch. There aren't any towns or settlements on Snow Creek with names, but there are three black dots along the creek just a mile or two apart, which I just suppose represented small communities in 1859. Hope this helps or at least adds to the big picture. Bill
Don't know any Belchers from Snow Creek, doesn't mean their aren't any! Ever hear of Belcher's Mountain going toward Stewart? Maybe kin in that area.

Just visited the Historical Society this weekend, I believe they still have the Settlement Maps. They can be reached at fchs@neocom.net or at 540-4839211 or 540-483-1890.

Listers, Since we are on old homes in Snow Creek, the Franklin Co. Historical map shows the Thomas Dunn Home location. Does anyone out there know anything about this? Is this just the site, or is his actual house still there? Is anyone out there descended from him? I am from the Belchers, Whites, Hurds and Davises of the area. Thanks, Charles Davis in Roanoke
Charles, I don't have any Dunns or Whites in my line, but do have the other names you mentioned. My main line is through the Brodies who married into your lines. Some of my names are: Myrtle Swansen Belcher Virginia Ossie Belcher Benjamin G. Hurd Benjamin Justus Hurd Charles Clay Hurd Martha Hurd Elizabeth Davis b. abt 1757 Hattie L. Davis James W. Davis (married to Sarah Ann Craig) Some of these names have come to me from other subscribers to this list. Shirley >Listers, >Since we are on old homes in Snow Creek, the Franklin Co.

Dear Listers, Many thanks for the helpful information including great website with maps. You were very helpful to me. Does anyone know whether or not Franklin Co Historical Society still has Settlement Maps showing early settlers? How can they be contacted? Nancy Hillyard Wilmington, DE
As long as we're talking about Snow Creek....does anyone know where the old Pearson place is there? George Pearson Glen Allen, VA.
Hey all, Another good place to go that has a map of Virginia in 1895 is at the following address. <http://fermi.jhuapl.edu/states/1895/va_1895.jpg> A slow loading map but worth the wait. Franklin Co., is near the bottom in green and includes the Pig River and Snow Creek areas along with many other places that you will recognize.
