Looking for anyone with information on Jesse W. and Sarah "Sally" Bolton Keys. They were married by the Reverend Landon Duncan in Giles County on April 6, 1826. Dillis Bolton

Thank you! Genealogists are a nice bunch of people. Someone already answered and did the lookup for me...to no avail. I am looking for information on the family of William and Nancy McPherson. William b. 1/11/1823. Their children were Thomas, John, Elizabeth, Elcaner, Sarah Delilah, Mary Minerva, Polly and Martha. I believe William and, at least, Thomas were born in Giles Co. Some of the younger children were born in Lee Co. Any information on this family would be greatly appreciated. -----Original Message----- From: barbara duncan [SMTP:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, June 22, 1999 2:48 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: 1850 Census Carol, Put the names out there and someone that has the list will help.

I am trying to find parents or siblings of Delila Hale b. 1825, m. Henry Fleming Meadows Sept 23,1845. Nancy in FL

Debbie, I guess I had better start reading a little better. I can fill in some of the blanks below: This info came from the Giles county Courthouse on Thomas Hale and Mary Agnes Lucas. There is Lucas on my mothers side. But the rest came from the Giles County History bk.2.

I was out snooping and found the SHRADER CEMETERY out Wolf Creek. Have made a list. If will help anyone let me know. Also while snooping found a small cemetery in the church yard of HALE'S Chapel Church. The site was small. The stone had two names on on each side of stone. Can anyone out there give information on these two people.

I remember seeing on the list someone looking for BLANKINSHIP. In looking at the 1850 census of Giles, VA. for WEBB, KARR, TAYLOR, I saw this: pg. 821, dwelling 627, family 620, Mary Ann BLANKINSHIP 36, f, VA. Patsy 6, f, VA. and I can't make out the name, 1, m, VA. pg. 816 dwelling 597 family 541, Francis HARMAN 60, m, black, PA. Phebe 55, f, black, PA. Eliza 13, f, w, PA. Nancy BLANKINSHIP 24, f, PA. Rebecca A. BLANKINSHIP 6/12, f, PA. There was one or two other BLANKINSHIP's on this census that I saw. I thought this might help someone. It is very hard for me to make out the spelling so I could be off.

Marriages-1846; William Stuart and Katharine Blankenship; by Stephen Blankenship (father); and Eleanor Blankenship (mother) Wit; James McClaughety, Jr., Blankenship. [email protected]

Hi Rooters, I have been searching for over a year for the parents of my ancestor, William Stuart of Pulaski, Giles and Bland Counties in Virginia. I don't believe he moved from place to place, I think the counties kept changing their borders. He owned and operated a large grist mill in Mechanicsburg, Virginia. It is said that he was a cousin to General J. E. B. Stuart. I have now found a few more clues that I am hoping will help some of you recognize William as one of your relatives. I have found a second marriage where he stated his birthplace was Shenandoah, Virginia and his parents were S. Stuart and A. Stuart, both born VA. Can anyone tell me who S. and A. Stuart of Shenandoah were? William Stuart/Stewart/Steward was born 9/4/1818 in Shenandoah, VA. He married 1st on 1/5/1843 in Pulaski, VA. Margaret Ross Moyers/Meyers b. 8/3/1823. Their children were Frances Mary, Margaret Ana, Elizabeth Leslie, Samuel Morrison Burnside, John Alexander, Catherine Hermin, William Buchanan, Russell Dilman, Virginia Houston, Luther Leonidas, Peachie Harrison and James Isaac Stuart. Margaret died 8/13/1873 and William married 2nd in 1879 in Pulaski, VA., Amanda C. Hurst b. 12/1/1847. They had one son Bramblette, b. 1880. It has been said that William Stuart died 10/17/1881, but I have found no evidence of his death. Bland County has NO records for the year 1881. I have searched Bland, Pulaski and Giles records and found NO death. Amanda C. Stuart was listed as a widow and remarried in 1895. I would appreciate any information that you can share about William and his family. Thank you! Anne H. Bays (Richmond, Virginia)

It is true, they just kept marriage in the family...ha! Isn't that really an old tradition? Years ago, wasn't it because... they married their cousins to keep the land with-in the family unit? I know this was the case in France. Jackie
