Sorry, left this detail out: facing the cemetery Virginia's house was on the right.

Virginia Gaulding Goodman Graham born: 11 Nov 1913 Hanover County died: 26 Oct 1954 buried: Oakwood Cemetery father: Andrew Lee ("John" ) Goodman mother: Sarah Rebecca ("Sallie" "Sallie Beck") Gaulding I am looking for the name of her husband, possibly starting with the letter V. She was a hairdresser in Seven Pines. For those familiar with the area, if you were facing the cemetery she lived in a white house, which has is now yellow.

Charles Terrell married Ann Lewis Phillips, widow of William Phillips. They had two children, Nicholas born in 1803, and Joseph Zachary born in 1806. He is not mentioned in her will, so apparently he predeceased her. If you're interested, I can send you the will. --Sally ----- Original Message ----- From: <kennybec@msn.com> To: <VAHENRIC-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, February 21, 2006 10:53 AM Subject: [VAHENRIC] Charles Terrell...Fanshaw? > This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. > > Surnames: Tucker, McNeil, Lowry > Classification: Query > > Message Board URL: > > http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/WBC.2ACI/2845 > > Message Board Post: > > Looking for info on a Charles Terrell who lived at Fanshaw, an estate > presumably.

To those that replied to my msg re: Tillman, Elmer & Verna B., my many Thanks. My daug (early 40's - fast growing cataracts) has had two eye operations in the last two wks and I have had gkids more than usual. The reason I am so late in 'thanking you' but I do appreciate your help and have had very good suggestions which I intend to pursue when things settle down. This is a great list and wonderful people. Again my many thanks. Gloria in MS (transplant from VA)

I searched the Richmond Times Dispatch online (1985-present) and found no listings for Tillman - Elmer, Paul, or Verna. A Lewis Tillman d. in 1996 and a Malachi Melvin Tilman in 2000. Sorry - PAM

I have a John Henry Henley born 1859 in Staffordshire, England-John immigrated to US I think in the 1870's, definately by 1877, but probably b-4. Do you know the name of your hubby's Hendley kin that came over with his brother from England? Do you know the year he was born, where he was born, and his parents and siblings names, if known? My John changed his name from Hennly to Henley, I figure John changed his name when he arrived in America. The issue is, I figure John Henry Henley came over from England with his kin, but the stories handed down never mentioned a thing bout John's immigration. I have been unable to find the data concerning who John came over to US with. Susan Please email me: shaines16@pcs.com

I am searching for the parents of Mary Elam who married Henry London/Lunnon in Mecklenburg Co., VA, in 1802. She was born in VA circa 1768 and died in Cleveland Co. (formerly Rutherford Co.), NC, in 1860. Opal London Cox, in her book, The London Family, wrote the following: (This is info she abstracts from two different books. I'll type it here exactly as she put it in her book.) >(COLONIAL WILLS OF GA. Martin Elam of Wilkes Co. Ga. 1798 wills to >Frances Barnes of Charlotte Co. Va. Wm. Elam, Martin Elam adj.

I really would like to see the reference to Henry and Mary that Mrs. Cox wrote about. It's interesting to me that Wilkes Co., GA; Charlotte Co., VA; Henrico Co., VA; and Mecklenburg Co., VA are all mentioned. I'm not sure how all these people fit together, but would like to know if Mary is related to either Martin or Wm. Elam. Thanks for any help or suggestions. Barbara Dooley Cullowhee, NC

Thank you for your reply Ben. I did ck SSDI . What I am looking for is perhaps someplace or someone related to Elmer P. Tillman or have knowledge of whether or not Verna remarried that would know of her last name. All in her family that would know that ans. are all deceased. Until recently I didn't even know she and Elmer were divorced. My cuz in VA looked in the 'military records' on Ancestry and found out that info for me. I am not a subscriber to Ancestry. Everything I try to find out always goes to Ancestry to subscribe. At this time that is not a financial option for me. The last info I have is 1930 census for Henrico County, Richmond and nothing since on Verna. That's the reason I guess is because she must have remarried and can't look anything up without a last name. I need her death date and where she is buried. I suspect she stayed in Henrico County but under what name? Thanks for trying.
