Price, born most probably in Russell Co. ca. 1827 married 1848 in Scott Co, to Frances (Fanny) O. Aldridge. We believe John's parents were Drury Price, Sr. born ca. 1788 in VA and wife Margaret (?). In 1850, Drury and Margaret were living in Scott Co. with their children. In 1860, Drury and Margaret were living with John M. Price and family in Scott Co. In 1870, Margaret was living in Washington Co. with her daughter Priscilla and husband William H. Townsend. We further speculate that Drury Price, Sr. was the son of Daniel Price born 12 July 1764 in S. Carolina and his wife Judith Puckett from Russell Co. We would appreciate learning beyond speculation: that John M. Price was the son of Drury Price, Sr.; the date that Drury passed away between 1860 and 1870; the maiden name of Drury's wife Margaret, and the date that Margaret passed away between 1870 and 1880. Further we would also like to be able to link Drury Price Sr. to Daniel Price. Thank you. Anne Fowler; E-mail <sambob@erols.com>

Russell Co. The source for this info is Lisa Ertl, but the listed email address doesn’t work. Since Thomas’ sister, Mary McCoy, married Robert Alfred Holbrook, one might assume that Elizabeth was a Holbrook as well. However, I’m having trouble confirming it, and there are indicators she may not be. Does anyone have any further info on Elizabeth?

Hi, I'm looking for information on the Herndon and Pennington families in Russell County, specifically the families of Martin Pierce Herndon (1788-1850) & Elizabeth T. Hurt (b. 1802-?, m. 1819), and their son Larkin Herndon (1832-1905) & Mary Pennington (1835-1924, m. 1853). Specifically, I'm interested in finding where they're buried, as well as general information (where they lived, etc. -- much to my delight, I've found the will of M.P. on Rootsweb already).

Robert Cress, the only Cress in Grayson 1850, was 19, born North Carolina, a laborer in the home of Rhoda Wells, age 62, born VA. He was listed as Jacob R. in the 1860 census Grayson, and there was a child you didn't name, Curtis, a male age 4, maybe Winlow as he wasn't on the census. I am not related to this family, hope this helps.

Can't find it on the Russell County list of cemeteries. I am looking for the grave of Randolph Hubbard. I recently acquired a copy of a land grant Randolph received in Ashe County NC in 1808 and located the property. Happy to share a scanned copy and a photo of the land if anyone wants it. The document doesn't say much. I also have a copy of the land survey. Apparently Randolph moved to Russell County in 1841 and sold the property in NC. I would also like to know where he lived in Elk Garden.
