Loretta, what is your Shackleford line, please? Thanks! Norma

I have a NICHOLAS PUGH who married ELIZABETH MARCUM Nov.26, 1856 in Lee county, Va. Some researchers think that she was the daughter of DANIEL MARCUM and GLORINA ACKLIN. But so far, I have no real proof of that. Jenny in Michigan

Don, I don't know who your Sarah was, but Swimpfield Roberts was the son of Jesse Roberts and Nancy Anderson Roberts of Lee Co, Va and Clay co, Ky. Your Sarah has the time frame to be in the same generation as Jesse Roberts. Maybe a sister. I also have a Celia Anderson married to a Frost in Hawkins/Hancock co, Tn. These Anderson's migrated through Lee co, Va from Grayson co, Va. Sorry that I couldn't help more.

I concur with Carol that genealogy is our topic -- as you recall I had some trouble over a political statement & was badly criticized. In my humble opinion religion & politics should be avoided in our messages unless it has to do with a specific ancestor or genealogy issue. Brenda Reed

Hi, Saw your correspondance regarding Roberts and wanted to see if any of you know anything on my Sarah Roberts b. ca1775 and married Robert Frost of Hawkins Co., TN. She was somehow related to Swimfield "Uncle Penny" Roberts from Clay Co, KY Thanks in advance for any help. Don Warf

Phil -- The information that I have is that Lavina Jane Burgin was the daughter of James Burgin and Nancy Ledington. This is not the result of original research on my part that proves it for a fact, but there is strong circumstantial evidence to support it. In the 1850 census for Lee County, the family of Arthur Blankenship and his wife Lavina are listed. In the same dwelling and next visit are enumerated the family of Chapman and Mary Roberts and their daughter Rebecca (Rebecca J. Roberts was my wife's second great grandmother -- she would become the first wife of James Knox Bays in 1867). Mary Roberts was the proven daughter of James Burgin and Nancy Ledington, and was a younger sister of Lavina Jane. Mary Burgin Roberts and her husband Chapman separated in the mid 1850s and formally divorced following the Civil War. I have personally researched Chapman Robert's Civil War extensive pension files (he served for the Union in the 173rd and 181st Regiments of the Ohio Volunteer Infantry), and the family dirty laundry is spelled out there in intimate detail, but that is, as the saying goes, another story. In the 1860 census, Mary was living with her parents, along with two of her 3 living children. A fourth child apparently died as an infant, but we have no other information on this child. Rebecca, her oldest living child, was living with Peter Washington Bays and his wife Rebecca Burgin Bays (another of Lavina's and Mary's sisters). In the 1870 census, Mary and Chapman's son Jeremiah Brownlow Roberts was still living with his grandparents. His sisters had married by then. I have not done a detailed analysis of where each of these families lived in relationship to each other during the 1850 - 1880 census enumerations, but I suspect it would reinforce their close family ties. I hope this helps.

As soon you think of the Creator, you immediately connect with Him. Think of Him often. Feel a sense of awe for the Creator by frequently contemplating the size and complexity of the universe. Realize that you are created in the image of the Creator and you are His child. When looking in a mirror, say to yourself, "You are a child of the Creator." Everything you have in life, you have because it is a gift from the Creator. Be constantly grateful. This gratitude creates love. The Almighty loves us more than we love ourselves. Frequently say to yourself, "The Almighty loves me even more than I love myself." Realize that everything that the Almighty causes to happen in your life, He causes to happen for a positive purpose. Some you will recognize, some you won't. Frequently repeat, "This, too, is for the good." Respect each human being because each human being is created in the Almighty's image. When you do an act of kindness, you are emulating the Almighty. Do so frequently. Every prayer you say, whether formal or in your own words, is an expression of connecting with the Creator. Make a blessing to thank the Creator before and after eating. This adds a spiritual dimension to the food you eat. Thank your Father, your King, for each and every breath. Since you are constantly breathing you are always connecting with the Creator. Let your trust in the Almighty's love for you give you an inner sense of serene Trust. Every life situation has been sent to you as a test and challenge from the Creator to help you grow and develop your character. Don't speak against or harm the Almighty's children. Thinking of this and acting accordingly connects you with the Creator. Realize that you are never alone. Wherever you are, the Almighty is always with you. Speak to Him in your own way and ask for your wants and needs.

Dear Listers, While spiritual life is very important and many religions share common messages, I would like to suggest that folks on the list resist the temptation to submit religious catechism and suggestions for others to follow. If one person is permitted then all must be allowed to submit their particular religious point of view. When posting points of view about religion, political philosophy and candidates and sex someone is likely to be offended. The topic of the list is genealogy and the subjects that support this research. Carol

Deborah and Brenda, Does either one of you know how Jesse Roberts of Lee co, Va and KY fits in to this Roberts line? He married Nancy Anderson who was supposedly a daughter of 'old' Peter Anderson of Bedford co, Va. Jesse and Nancy lived in Lee co until sometime after the 1860 census and moved to Ky.

Marriage Records, is my 3rd-great-grandmother. She was born 8 May 1833 and died 29 Nov 1914 in Lee Co., VA. She married James Bradley Ward. Also census record indicate that Mima, wife of Aaron K. Roberts was not living in 1900, meaning she died sometime between 1880 and 1900 -- unless of course, someone out there has a documented death date & place for her. Anything further from anyone???
