    3. I have just discovered that Elder John C. HALL was a brother of my great-grandmother Sarah A.M.F. Hall. I found his burial listed at Little Creek Primitive Baptist Church Cemetery. ... Are there any researchers of this HALL line out there? Regards, Freddie S.

    1. [VAFRANKL] Heritage Book Update
    2. Barb S.
    3. Here is the latest on the Franklin County Heritage Book from the FCHS. The Heritage book price is $75 per single copy plus $3 shipping. If two or more or ordered and paid for at the same time the price is $65 each plus $3 shipping for each book ordered. The covers look great and we are working frantically to get the books out for Xmas gifts. I am at the printer's about every day completing last minute work. I'll just send them out without a notice as soon as we get them. Those who are picking up here will get a postcard plus I'll put a notice in the newspaper in Rocky Mount. The price is good through Dec. 31 or until we run out of copies. Not sure how many extra we'll have. I'm hoping for at least 250 to sell after printing but orders are coming in almost daily and I haven't tallied recently other than to know we are still within our ballpark of 1,000 pre-ordered copies. Mail payment to: Franklin County Historical Society P.O. Box 905 Rocky Mount, VA 24151

    1. [VAFRANKL] Thos. Cooper, Henry Co VA>Greene Co GA
    2. Hello Everyone, I recently posted the will and estate settlement of my ancestor Thomas Cooper, who was b. 1733 or so, maybe Frederick Co VA, bought land in Albermarle Co 1755, later moved to Henry Co VA (part formerly Pittsylvania). CA. 1791 he and most of his children and their families moved to Hancok/Greene Co GA, where he died bef. Feb 1796. In response to my post I received three emails (which I can't locate) from other descendants asking if I had any proof of the information "out there" that he was a member of the Virginia House of Burgesses and participated in the Virginia Convention of 1788, which was convened to ratify the Constitution, that troublesome document under much scrutiny now. I hope this email gets to all of you. Since checking this out seemed like a good idea, I found a book, which does confirm these facts, but House of Delegates, not House of Burgesses, I didn't find him there before the Rev.: "The General Assembly of Virginia, July 30, 1619-January 11, 1978: A Bicentennial Register of Members" Compiled by the Library of Virginia. Specifically: VIRGINIA CONVENTION OF 1788. Thomas Cooper represented Henry Co with John MARR. FYI, Franklin Co was represented by John EARLY and Thomas ARTHUR. Pittsylvania was represented by Robert WILLIAMS and John WILSON (names I don't recognize). Bedford was represented by John TRIGG and Charles CLAY. Campbell by Robert ALEXANDER and Edmund WINSTON. Thomas Cooper was a member of the House of Delegates from Oct. 15, 1787 until 1790, about the time he went to GA. The particulars for the VA House of Delegates: SESSION, OCT 13-1787 - JAN 1788, Henry Co: John MARR, Thomas COOPER (Abraham PENN is mentioned as well, but a footnote says "Abraham Penn was declared unduly elected, and Thomas Cooper was declared elected"...Wonder what the story behind that is, maybe undervotes?) Bedford Co: John TRIGG, James TURNER Campbell Co: John CLARKE, Charles Moil TALBOT Franklin Co: John EARLY, Thomas ARTHUR Pittsylvania Co: William LYNCH, Benjamin LANKFORD (the above five counties rep'd in the VA Senate by Charles LYNCH) SESSION JUNE 1788 and OCT 20-DECEMBER 19, 1788: Henry Co: Thomas COOPER, Abraham PENN Bedford Co: Thomas LEFTWICH, John TRIGG Campbell Co: John HUNTER, John CLARKE Franklin Co: John EARLY, Joshua RENTFRO Pittsylvania Co: Benjamin LANKFORD, Constant PERKINS (The above rep'd in the Senate by Charles LYNCH) SESSION Oct 19 - DEC 19, 1789 Henry Co: Thomas COOPER, Abraham PENN Bedford Co: John J. TRIGG, Thomas LEFTWICH Campbell Co: John HUNTER, John CLARKE Franklin Co: Joshua RENTFRO, Samuel HAIRSTON Pittsylvania Co: William DIX, Benjamin LANKFORD (These rep'd in VA Senate by Charles LYNCH) SESSION OCT 18-DEC 1790 Henry Co: Joseph MARTIN (more on him below), Thomas COOPER Bedford Co: John TRIGG, Christopher H. CLARKE Campbell Co: John CLARK, David G. TALBOT Franklin Co: Joshua RENTFRO, John EARLY Pittsylvania Co: Matthew CLAY, Benjamin Lankford (Robert CLARKE represented the above five counties in the Senate..Anybody know who all these Clarks are?) I have copied all of the pages for the above, plus the next two General Assembly sessions. Now I was most interested that in his last term Thomas Cooper served with Joseph MARTIN (who served several more terms), one of THE most interesting personas of early Eastern Tennessee History ("married" the daughter of the revered Cherokee Nancy WARD, while also having two successive marriages inHenry Co, everybody knew about). For an interesting sketch on him check out this site at the New River Notes: http://www.ls.net/~newriver/swva/hssv-2.htm#martin Best Regards, Janet Hunter

    1. [VAFRANKL] genealogy online
    2. bonnie moore
    3. In our paper here in Savannah, Georgia today there was quite a big article on searching for family trees and it included some genealogy online sites that I thought might be useful to some that don't have them. I was surprised that I didn't have quite a few of them. I am passing this on hoping it will help some of you. Have a great Holiday, Sincerely, Bonnie www.tilenet.com www.deja.com www.delphi.com www.genforum.com www.dogpile.com www.google.com www.northernlight.com www.www.freeforums.com www.iwannatalk.com www.insidetheweb.com www.parentsplace.com The www.genforum.com is a site where just about every surname has its own message board and many people find the site and post queries about an individuall, locality and date range. They fail to check back regularly for replies and it may be months before someone who has any relevant information reads your post. that is why it is very important to include your email address for others to reach you personally.

    1. Re: [VAFRANKL] genealogy online
    2. The www.genforum site does have your email address you just have to click on the person who submitted the query and there is their email address. And genforum now notifies you when someone has posted a response to your query. At familyhistory.com they do not have the email addresses available when you read the query you must post it with your query. But they too notify you when someone responds to your query. Hope this helps someone. Happy holidays. Regina Gray
