Does anyone out there have any info on a Nich (I assume short for Nicholas) or Tarkel Tarkleson. Apparently Tarkel married Margaret Thatcher in 1797, but apparently had married Elizabeth George in 1793. My ancestor is the daughter if the secind wife, I believe, as she was born in 1806 and her name was Hannah Tarkelson. She married Thomas Williams of Spotsylvania County, Fredericksburg. Any help would be most appreciated.

Still looking for HALE. Any takers?

Hi Richard, I might have found another one of your THRIFT: Sharp THRIFT from Tucker Hill married to Jenny Tyler from Smith Island. One of their children was Ernest Talmage THRIFT married to Julia BRYANT. They are buried in Bethany Baptist Church Cemetery in Callao, VA. Let me know if anyone can connect to them. Thanks, Sue

I've updated my web page again. I have posted several new pictures of THRIFT folks from the John THRIFT & Sally WHITE line. I've added more information to that text file as well. http://www.genealogy.com/users/w/h/i/Susan-Whittington-Maryland/

Me too, I would love to see more transcriptions. I am interested in the Rice family very early and all of their descendents. I sent a rough draft of my book years ago to the society for additions and corrections but never heard a thing.

Hi Indie, I have passed this information on to a distant cousin of mine who is related to a Joseph A. Rock, born about 1825, who married Mary P. Lewis in 1847. Their son Augustus was the great grandfather of my distant cousin. Mary's date of death was in 1893 I believe, so this may not be your Joseph A. Rock. I do know that he was the son of Richard L. Rock who was the son of Alexander Rock and Mary Littrell Rock.

Valentine LEWIS was born abt 1801 in Richmond County, VA. His parents were Jeremiah LEWIS and Mary BEACHAM. He married Susan B. LAWRENCE from Somerset County, MD. in 1873. They were married in Northumberland County, VA. He was married before. She was born abt 1837 and her parents were Charles LAWRENCE and Ellen WINDSOR. Looking for information on either family.

I am transcribing an old deed and Morabro Creek is mentioned in Northumberland County. Is this the correct spelling. Does it still exist? Thanks.

Blackerby, Blackaby, Blackeley, Blackabee, Blackby, Blackerly The name seems to be unique in that everyone spells it differently, but I can spot it on a fence post 500 yards away. -----Original Message----- From: Indie & Mike Shepp <imshepp@pa.net> To: VANORTHU-L@rootsweb.com <VANORTHU-L@rootsweb.com> Date: Thursday, April 25, 2002 3:51 PM Subject: Re: [VANORTHU-L] Cemeteries and other records >Patt: What families are you searching.. marriage records, etc. ? >Indie Shepp > >----- Original Message ----- >From: "Patt Roach" <peadatt@abilene.com> >To: <VANORTHU-L@rootsweb.com> >Sent: Thursday, April 25, 2002 3:20 PM >Subject: Re: [VANORTHU-L] Cemeteries and other records > > >> Amen to that.

Hi! I know that at Smithland Baptist Church there is no listing. I hope to do that someday. They've even lost the map of the cemetery. I can't believe it either!!
