Surnames: FULCHER Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/yAC.2ACE/864.3 Message Board Post: Hi, Melissa! We've talked before, but to refresh your memory, my husband is the g-g-grandson of Madison Fulcher (son of Hardin Fulcher and "Missouri.") I am really interested in the information you found concerning a neighbor harassing Missouri! Where did you find this and what specifically does it say? Who was the neighbor? I am also convinced that Missouri was, at the very least, part or full blooded Native American. It might be worth doing for several family members (known descendents of Madison, Lucinda, Penelope, etc.) to get together and consider participating in a DNA study to determine if this is true.

Smith, born 1800 in Montgomery Co., married Elizabeth Croy. His father was David, and mother was Elizabeth Jones Smith. William and brother Wilson, and William's son Charles Black Smith (and Charles Black's wife Lucinda Withrow Campbell, of the Archibald Campbell family.) moved to Fayette County, W. Va., then to Pike County, Ohio in 1851. William had two sisters Susan and Elizabeth who married Andrew and Adam Croy in Blacksburg, Va.. Charles Black Smith's obit says that he was named after his family who settled Blacksburg. I have been unable to find a Smith-Black marriage, though the Croys were very active in the settlement of Blacksburg. Can anyone help with siblings of William other than Wilson, Elizabeth, and Susan? Or with a marriage of someone in the Blacksburg originating Black family, with someone in this Smith family. Thank you so much.

This is a site for KY death record images. Some of the index does not have the actual image yet, but they are working on it. I did find an image for one of my Great Aunts that I had no idea when she died. It was a great find, one that I could not have made without these volunteers who are working on this site. christine http://www.rootsweb.com/~kygenweb/kvrp/

I happened to mention a site for Illinois when I was recommending the WV site. The url for the Illinois marriages is: http://www.sos.state.il.us/departments/archives/marriage.html I think that is correct. -----Original Message----- From: Berry Spradley <berrys@hal-pc.org> Sent: Nov 17, 2005 1:18 PM To: Bonnie <bekaycee@earthlink.net> Subject: Re: [VAMONTGO] researching in West Virginia What is the address for the Illinois marriage info website?

I wanted to let people know that this is a very good site. Easy to use. I have found William Turner Breeding's Death Certificate, his second wife's info and c. o. d., which I did not know of her. I have found a bunch of transplanted Pulaskians: Breedings and Ransoms. I also found a copy of Wm. T.'s son in law's death certificate, A J Nunn. Also some cousins that were infants when they died, My uncle was a coal miner in WV. It has been a very productive site for me, not all counties have info, not everything is completely covered, but it makes me wish Virginia and other states would make this info available. That will never happen, they would loose to much money on their copies of these. Illinois has a website to find marriage info. But not the actual certificates/licenses. You can view and copy THE actual certificate of death.

Does someone on the list have an index to Montgomery Co. tax lists pre-1791? If so, please tell me which ones Eleazer Cole is on. Lee Anne

Some one on the list was kind enough to post a tax list a few days ago for Montgomery county, it had a number of Hensleys on it. I sent it to a friend and then deleted it. "Stupid" I should have checked to make sure she got it first. She couldn't open it and now I don't have it. Could you please send it to me again. You were also willing to do look ups. It was was in the 1700. Thanks so much for your trouble. Bobbie

January 2005 I viewed film #1870170 in my local Latter Day Saints Family History Library. It is the Personal Property Tax list of 1792 for Montgomery County, Va. I had ordered the film because I believe that my Jacob Elliott may have moved his family to Montgomery County, Virginia temporarily because of a close call during the Revolutionary War events in NC. Jacob was a Quaker and it is my belief that he was almost shot for refusing to join the battles on the Tory side. My research has shown that his family did not want to be a part of the Revolution at all--their Quaker beliefs discouraged or even forbid their taking part in the war. He and his family are found on several lists in Randolph County, NC refusing to take oaths and refusing to pay taxes to support a war that they did not believe in. I made very sketchy notes....mainly just listing the names of people that I recognized or surnames that I was interested in. As background, Montgomery had been an enormous county in 1780 reaching from the NC border up into what is now WV. But in 1790, Wythe had been carved out of Montgomery making it much smaller, but still much larger than it is today. While it did not touch the NC border any more, it still reached up into what I would now call the WV coalfields. It was bordered by Greenbrier County, Kanawha, Botetourt, Wythe and Henry and Franklin. And by the tax of 1792 it was still the same size as in 1790, but the other counties touching it had broken into more counties...Giles County is formed in 1806 out of three counties....one of them is Montgomery. So Many of the stories that have things happening in Giles County could have been families who were already living on the land in 1792 in Montgomery who would call their county Giles 14 years later. I would like to see how many of the people that I jotted down we can identify. If you have buddies on other mail lists, feel free to include them. I'll add what I know about any of them as well....and if you find errors in my assumptions, I consider it a favor to be corrected. William Webb Adam Clendenning Lots of Davies: Robert, James, James, Jr, Samuel, William Elizabeth Dobbins Faulkner Elliott Samuel Elliott George Elmore Lots of Ewings Israel Elliott My Jacob Elliott had a son named Israel who married Welmet Lamb. Jacob Elliott I would like to think that this is my Jacob Elliott who lived much of his adult life in Rowen and then later Randolph County, NC (he was born in either Penn or New Jersey) William Hensley, Sr. George Hensley Moses Justice Moredock McKinsey--my notes tell me that Moredock and his family had come from Culpeper with John and Richard Chapman and had settled in 1778 at the mouth of Wolfe Creek on New River. His family had suffered from an attack in 1778. His daughters Elizabeth and Margaret were taken into captivity. Christian Martin--at the time I believed these men to have been my husband's relations...but I find his Martin family to still be in Bedford County, Virginia in this time period. Philip Martin Joseph Martin Alexander Neely William Patterson Robert Poague Thomas Poague James Rowland Taylors and Tollivers together--this sounds like Orange County, Virginia to me..... Michael Thomas William Thomas Frederick Miller Henry Webb Benjamin Hensley (no titheable) Charles Hensley Robert Hensley George Martin John Martin Isaac Elliott--I don't have an Isaac Elliott in my data base, but other researchers say that my Jacob and his brother Abraham had a brother named Isaac who died young. Perhaps Abraham had a son that he named Isaac....perhaps none of these Elliott's belong to me... Moses Justice Chrisley Hansley Patrick Morrison--could easily have been father-in-law of Soloman Hensley (Soloman is said to have married Elizabeth Hensley daughter of Patrick Henry Morrison b. circa 1750)-- Any ideas to help me with this tax list?
