I am looking for a copy of the Normans or Mississippi. I don't know who wrote, or the publisher. I have seen it as a source for Norman Names. Has anyone seen a copy, or know where I can view this book. Any library, or online? Thanks John

Hello: I'm new to this list. Looking forward to reading and posting messages... In terms of my War of 1812 heritage, I have family that served from PA and NC. I'm hoping that someone might be able to answer a question about my PA ancestor: John Flatt (b. 1786), Muncy, Northumberland (Lycoming) County. Served in the Muncy Light Infantry Militia, 1814-15. Does anyone have any records on him? Did he ever apply for a pension, either from the federal government or the Commonwealth of PA?

In a personal record, a distant relative of mine remembered when she was a little girl in Mississippi that her two brothers, by the name of Overaker or Overacre, "marched off to the War of 1812". I should appreciate a lookup by Bill Allen in his "War of 1812, Historic Records, Generations Grande Suite CD" for any service people from Mississippi, by that name, in the War of 1812. If anyone else has info on these men, I should appreciate hearing from you. Sincerely, Doug Burke doug.burke3@verizon.net.

I am hoping somebody can do a lookup for me. I'm looking for a Jacob GOOD or GUTH in PA. I've read in some documentation that he is a veteran of the War of 1812. Any help is greatfully apprectiated. Sharon (GOOD) Jones

I found a reference to Volume 18, page 20 which supposedly states that Lucy Heath filed for a pension". I am hoping this would be for David P Heath. Does anyone have access to a Volume 18 of Pension records that could look up this info. Thank you, Dot

I am praying somebody can do a lookup. Lucinda Hensley received a land grant in Tishomingo Co Ms. in l840. I think she was a war widow, possibly War of 1812. Is she listed? Is there a G W Hensley or Michael Hensley? How many veterans in North Carolina and Tn.? She was in Lawrence Co.Tn. in l830. dale johnson

Hi Dale, My CD has only 1 HENSLEY who's name began with G -- George. He served in the 16 Reg't (Porter's) Kentucky Milita. The CD didn't list any HENSLEY who's name began with M.

Roma, I do not have Fergusons as one of my lines, but I checked Ancestry.com. Here is what they had (below) for the name David Ferguson. Neither is in PA, but one is in OH. I do not know if one of these is yours. You may know. If one of these is not yours, check Ancestry.com occasionally, as they add records all the time. Also, it couldn't hurt to check if City Hall, the cemetery maintainer, or a local monument works was in business or passed down to another owner or family member.
