Hello: The subscribers on one of my Ontario lists have all been reposting their interests recently, and this time a new subscriber contacted me and said he also was researching my (and his) 4xgt-grandparents Mark CHASE and Anna THOMAS. I had reported to this list last week that all I knew of Anna's birth was that it was in 1776 in Virginia. My new distant cousin says he is taking up his mother's research since her recent death, and in her notes she says Anna was born in "Selkirk Settlement (Baldoon), Virginia" . [Punctuation hers.] He has no idea where she got this placename from, and neither of us gets any result when we try it in google.ca, although "Selkirk Settlement" by itself has a lot because of the Manitoba settlement of that name. There might be something in the US version of Google, but when I type in www.google.com, it just switches me back to .ca, which is quite frustrating. Was there a settlement called that in 18th century Virginia? And what about Baldoon -- is that a town? Possibly a misreading from microfilm of a county name in either (present-day) Virginia or West Virginia? Any suggestions would be helpful, and would be received with many thanks.

Dig pushes back clock Archaeologists now seek meaning in the Hampton site that points to dwellings from the 18th century. BY MARK ST. JOHN ERICKSON 247-4783 Published February 9, 2005 HAMPTON -- Sometime back about 1690 - and maybe as early as 10 years before - the owner of a ramshackle house on the main street of what was still called Kecoughtan starting pulling the structure down. Two broken tobacco pipes fell into a root cellar as workers razed the decrepit wooden building. Another landed in the hole created when someone pulled a rotting structural post from the ground. Unearthed by archaeologists more than three centuries later, those distinctively shaped pieces of pottery have now become telltale clues in an ambitious effort to recreate the lost colonial landscape of America's oldest continuous English-speaking city. Recovered from a complex cluster of architectural features that includes three pre-Revolutionary War dwellings, the pipe bowls rank among the earliest artifacts found since the south King Street dig started last summer. They also mark a historic turning point in the transformation of the coastal outpost of Kecoughtan into the flourishing 18th-century seaport town of Hampton. But as surprised archaeologists have learned over and over again, their latest discovery represents only one more story at a site that has given up evidence of 13 buildings, five wells and numerous other features over the past five months. With several root cellars and wells still to be fully explored, moreover, they hope to turn up additional clues before the excavation ends in about two weeks. "When we started, all we knew for certain was that we had one cellar," says Hank Lutton, project archaeologist for the James River Institute for Archaeology. "But the magnitude and importance of this site is much, much greater than we originally thought. It's really extraordinary to find this kind of preservation and integrity in a place with such a long history of occupation - and it's giving us a really rare glimpse back into the past." Originally funded by a small grant from the state Department of Historic Resources' Threatened Sites Program, the King Street dig began with a series of test holes excavated around the old Kramer Tire Company building this past August. Though one relatively shallow shaft opened up to reveal a bank of brick steps leading down into an 18th-century cellar, the archaeologists confess now that the site turned out to be far richer - and more difficult to excavate - than several previous digs conducted nearby during the 1980s had predicted. Not long after uncovering what is believed to be a substantial late 18th-century dwelling, they turned up evidence of a much earlier 18th-century structure just beneath the cellar floor. A few steps away, a single posthole from an even older, possibly late 17th-century building emerged from the ground at about the same time, eventually leading to the recent discovery of the broken pipe bowls and a major wooden dwelling that could date to 1670. In quick succession, the archaeologists then found the remnants of an early 18th-century kitchen and an 18th-century shop as well as numerous wells, trash deposits and fence lines dating from before 1740 to the early 1800s. They also discovered dramatic evidence of the fire that destroyed Hampton in 1861 and a series of late 19th-century buildings that rose up from the city's ashes. "We were very fortunate to find so much - and fortunate that the city was able to step in and support what has become an extensive project," says Nick Luccketti, principle archaeologist for James River Institute. "What we've got is an extraordinary record of what was the heart of colonial Hampton and - given that it was reused and reused and reused - the degree of preservation here is remarkable." In sharp contrast, a test dig conducted at the nearby corner of King and Queens Way late last year showed that the single 18th-century feature that survives there is in dramatically worse shape than expected. Only one part of a brick foundation wall survived the subsequent building campaigns of the 19th and 20th centuries, Luccketti says. Fewer than a handful of colonial artifacts remained in the modern fill surrounding the deeply disturbed feature. "There's no guarantee that you're going to find evidence of the colonial era every time you dig - even in Hampton," the archaeologist added. "So it's a good lesson that you don't have to dig - and shouldn't dig - everywhere." Though the excavation is expected to end within two weeks, the work of conserving tens of thousands of artifacts found over the past five months is just beginning. Transferred to the Hampton History Museum, the objects will form the centerpiece of a temporary exhibit over the next six weeks, with a corps of volunteers and conservators washing, sorting, cataloging and beginning to study virtually every item that has been found. "When you stand there and see 50 or 60 artifacts that were once used every day - fragments of drinking glasses, cups, bottles and serving vessels - you can really get a sense of what those objects would have looked like in somebody's home 200 or even 300 years ago," curator Mike Cobb says. "It's part of the trail that began out there at the site - with the trowels of the archaeologists - and will eventually end up here as a new museum exhibit."

Thanks, Joy and Debra, for the advice about looking for Anna Thomas's birth and marriage in county records. I have no idea what county she was born in, I'm afraid -- in fact, I don't even know the names of the counties in Virginia or anything about the county system within states, which means a geography lesson, I guess. (We don't have counties in Western Canada, although they do in the Eastern provinces.) Looks like I approach all the ones listed in Rootsweb, one after another. As we have a household rule restricting each of us in the family to only 15 minutes a day connected to the Internet, and I'm researching all lines, all branches, on both sides of my family at once, this is going to take a while but I'll get there eventually! As for so many of the records being burned in various wars, wouldn't it be ironic if the ones I'm looking for were destroyed in the War of 1812, when Anna's husband Mark Chase was in the Canadian militia and was part of the march on Washington where they burned the Library of Congress? Maybe he destroyed his own marriage record en route -- not knowing how much that was going to annoy his great-great-great-great-granddaughter. How terribly thoughtless of him ( : D )! Thanks again. Margaret Gibbs Richmond, BC

Luckily I believe the state will keep all the records before the split in the Virginia State Archives. The state archives is usually kept in the capital of that state I believe. The counties will usually also have records but a lot of records have been lost county wise due to fires etc so don't get discouraged. Caroline Co is the worst for lost records I have been told. One lucky point is that Virginia has the best genealogical gathering of information by their Society and researchers who have written on the families of this state. If you know a specific county then you have access to their information too. It's usually not that much to join and they will help you with those hard to find people. This American dummy is down to the 1700's in researching and most arrived from Europe and I don't have a clue as to how to find anything. Good luck in your search, Debra --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Search presents - Jib Jab's 'Second Term'

Hello: I'm new to this list, and not actually sure if this is the list I needed to join. Could someone tell this ignorant Canadian where one looks for information about someone born in Virginia before it split into two states, if one doesn't know the specific town? My 4xgt-grandmother Anna THOMAS was born in 1776 in Virginia -- that's all that's recorded by her daughter Elizabeth (my 3xgt-grandmother) in the family Bible. In the mid-1790s (exact date unknown) Anna married Mark CHASE of Exeter, Rockingham, NH and their first two children were born in Exeter. They then moved to Canada. I won't clutter this with more details in case I'm on the wrong list? I've already queried the Rockingham list and no-one can find any record of the marriage in New Hampshire, so presumably it was also in Virginia somewhere. I'd like to find out, eventually, Anna's birthdate and place, her parent's names, and the date and place of her marriage to Mark Chase. Would 18th century records for the state be kept centrally in Virginia, or have they been split between Virginia and West Virginia according to their specific location? Thanks in advance to anyone who can point me in the right direction. My other ancestors were all in or from Scotland, so I'm not too familiar with researching in the USA.

DNA sought to confirm ID of bones Scientists think they've discovered the skull of Jamestown settler Bartholomew Gosnold BY MARK ST. JOHN ERICKSON February 1, 2005 Scientists began surveying two English church sites with ground-penetrating radar Monday to help Jamestown archaeologists identify a set of remains believed to be those of high-ranking English colonist Bartholomew Gosnold. Though several hurdles have yet to be resolved, the investigators hope to find the graves of two matrilineal relatives whose DNA could then be used to provide positive confirmation of this early Jamestown settler's identity. "Nothing has been completely decided yet. We still have to wait for a series of steps to be made before we know if we'll be able to get a DNA sample," said Jamestown chief archaeologist William M. Kelso. Kelso unearthed the colonist's remains in late 2002. "We may have the evidence we need to prove we've found the remains of one of the colony's most influential and important figures. It was Gosnold who brought John Smith, Christopher Newport and the others together at his home in Suffolk. He was the colony's moving force." Uncovered just outside the west wall of the fort, the unidentified settler posed a tantalizing riddle until Jamestown Rediscovery conservator Michael Lavin began examining a curious artifact buried with the remains. Using X-ray equipment at NASA Langley Research Center in Hampton, Lavin paid careful attention to the rust-encrusted tip of a wooden shaft found lying across the colonist's coffin. Inside, he discovered a cross-shaped finial that was soon identified as part of a ceremonial staff carried by a high-ranking officer. "The staff appeared on the coffin even before we got to the remains," Kelso said. "It was like the colonists who buried him left us a note - 'This was somebody important.' " Such unusual pomp and circumstance - which the archaeologists date to a time when most of the settlers were sick and struggling - led Kelso to believe that the powerful Gosnold was the most likely occupant of the grave. According to the colonists' accounts of this difficult period, no other funeral received such attention, he said. More evidence came from a forensic analysis conducted by Smithsonian Institution scientist Doug Owsley, who determined that the remains were those of a European man who died in his mid-to-late 30s. Gosnold, who commanded the ship Godspeed during the colonists' voyage from England, fell ill and died at the age of 36, Kelso said. Despite the forensic and historical support for his theory, the archaeologist has traveled to England twice since the discovery of the remains to find a way to confirm the identity through DNA. When researcher Catherine Correll-Walls was unable to trace the maternal line of the family past Gosnold's great-grandniece, the search turned to two churches in Suffolk, where the colonist's sister and niece are recorded as buried. Only the maternal line preserves the type of DNA needed to establish kinship across numerous generations, Kelso said. Working with The Church of England's Diocese of St. Edmundsbury and Ipswich late in 2004, the archaeologist won permission for the first stage of tests, which will use ground-penetrating radar to locate and define the outline of the graves. If these efforts are successful, the English investigative team may then use a fiber-optic probing device to further identify their targets, which are buried in vaults under the church floors. Only after confirming that the DNA samples can be extracted with a minimum degree of disturbance will the scientists ask the diocese - and the parishioners - for permission to carry out the delicate process. That decision should be known by the end of March. "I want to make it clear that we're not going to exhume anybody," Kelso said. "What we want is a small bone sample. We don't want to disturb anything needlessly." Funded by the National Geographic Society, the sampling procedure and the results of the DNA test may be seen as part of a television documentary on the Jamestown dig scheduled to air in November. Until then, the unidentified colonist will lie in place inside the Jamestown collections vault, where his remains have been stored out of public view since they were discovered. "We were so excited when we realized who we might have found. It was hard not to be," Kelso recalled. "We'd just found the lost fort - and then we'd found the lost hero - the prime mover behind the Jamestown settlement. Gosnold's contributions have been overlooked."

Fairfield Ledger Sept. 14, 1887 Page 3 col. 8 MARRIED SIXTY YEARS. On August 30, 1827, in Ohio, BENJAMIN PIERCE was married to MISS. RACHEL COPPOCK….Few people in our midst have done more through charitable work and more eventful histories than MR. and MRS. PEIRCE[sic]. Both were reared according to the strictest tenets of the orthodox Friends, but gradually grew into what they are pleased to term liberal ideas, relying more upon faithful works and less upon creed and form….The spirit of abolition was born in both of them. MRS. PEIRCE[sic] came from the celebrated COPPOCK family. Two of her cousins, ED. and BARCLAY COPPOCK, enlisted under JOHN BROWN’S standard in Cedar County, this state, and were with him in his famous Harper’s Ferry raid. BARCLAY escaped to the mountains after the encounter with the troops, but ED. was hung on the same scaffold with the martyr BROWN. In all these troublous times both these good people risked life and fortune for the slave. For years their home was a station on the great underground railroad, on which so many of these poor people took passage, and many is the weary refugee who has received aid at their hands. With the means at their command they not only gave succor to the fleeing slave, but the widow and the orphan have never gone from their home empty handed, and though never blessed with children of their own their roof has sheltered many a fatherless and motherless child. The works and memories of MR. and MRS. PEIRCE will live long after they have gone, and their simple lives and excellent example will long remain in the minds of those who knew their history.

He with his wife confessed Christ and united with the Christian Church in 1850.  He remained true to his faith to his death. In 1874 he came to Chariton, Iowa, and remained until March, 1904, when he removed to Kansas City, to reside with his son, CHARLES SMITH, his only living child.  In politics, he was a democrat.  In character, he was honest, true and good.  His eulogy may be summed up in few words.  He was a good husband, a kind father, a good citizen, an honest man.  Those who knew him best, loved him most. He died at his son's residence in Kansas City, Mo., January 9th, 1908.  Had he lived till April he would have been 90 years of age.  A long, uneventful, but a loyal human life. His remains were brought to Chariton and laid by the side of his wife, on the 11th of January, 1908.  "Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord, from henceforth; yea saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labors; and their works do follow them."     ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~                                  JAMES A.

I have a William & Milley Skinner in my family line. William was born 1774, Milley was born 1775 in Va. they lived in Ky. and Indiana, both died Indiana. Their son John Skinner was born 1798 in Va. but as of now I can't find any records of William's family, father, mother, siblings etc. or Milley's family maiden name etc. I am not sure when they were married but since John was born in 1798 it would be before that time frame. John Skinner was married in 1822 Cynthiana Ky. to Zilphia Northcutt. Would any one have any info. on this family or could lead me in the right direction finding any info. I am at a brick wall trying to find any info. in the 1700's for marriage bonds, birth, maiden names etc. Thanks in advance for any help. Penny
