I am searching for a William Weaver b. ca 1835 if either NY or NJ. He was possibly the son of William Weaver b. ca 1805. Both of these men were Steamboat pilots on the Mississippi River in later years. William b. ca 1835 had a family in LA and MS. Nancy Weaver Knight
I am looking for the maiden name of Henry Weaver's wife, Sarah. Henry was born about 1755; married about 1775 and died before 1800 in Mason, KY. I do not know anything about Sarah and looking for her maiden name and her ancestors. Does any Weaver researcher out there working on this branch of the Weaver family? My gr gr grandmother was a Weaver. Thanks for help. Perry Adams

I'm new to the list and was really glad to finally find out about the Phipps list. My "line" is somewhat limited. I have been trying to get started by gathering as much information as I could for 2 years now. I am on several lists and found a 3rd? cousin in my mother's paternal side, the Tyler side. I'm not having much success so I am thinking about taking a genealogy class at our local college after the first of the new year. Here is what I have for my Phipps line, my maternal great-grandmother: William Franklin Arnold m. Jeanette Phipps Their children: Mertie Jeanette b. 2/17/1901 d. 12/23/1960 in Sulphur, Murray Co., OK She married Charles Alexander Tyler b. 4/27/1897 Heavener, OK and he died 8/15/1967 in Sulphur, Murray Co., OK. Benjamin Walter Robert Mary Etta (she married Charles' brother - Fred Tyler) Mamie The children of Charles & Mertie are: Lorene, Charles Omar, Ruby, Helen, Laura (Lou/LouCeil)Weaver (my mother), Darlene, and Jack. Laura (my mom) married Burris(Buck) D. Weaver 5/25/1947. Most of the people listed were born in Texas and Oklahoma. I understand that some of the family came from Missouri and Arkansas also. As I said earlier, I don't have much information and I am rather "green". I have Charles and Mertie's children, grandchildren, and some great- grandchildren and maybe some gg-grand children. If something is familiar to anyone, I would appreciate it if you would contact me. Thank you to Stephanie for all the info you have posted. I have saved it to disk and would like to know more. But, I guess - all in good time. Linda K. Weaver Long. The lines I have been trying to find information on are: Long, Weaver, Johnson, Tyler, Arnold, Phipps, Wells, Carter, Cain/etal., and any others that may "pop" up.
Hi, I'm a newbie to the list. i am looking for information on one of my husband's great grandmothers, Harriet Weaver, who married George H. Fellows of Scranton Pa. He was the son of John Fellows and Cynthia Jeanette Pierce. George and Harriet haad 5 daughters, Harriet m. William D. Griffith Gertrude m. Louis Senker, had 2 children Effie m. John D. Keator, had 1 child Bertha m. Philip Gress, had 1 child Ruth m. Charles J. Cassese, had 1 child. I heard that there is a book on some of the Weavers in Pennsylvania, known as the "Weaver History"? Is it possible that she is there? Any help would be appreciated.

As an FYI, online auction houses like eBay can be a good resource for buying genealogy items - in case you are not familiar with e-Bay, you must register to use their services - registration is free. There is no charge from eBay for you to bid on any active auction. e-Bay does charge the sellers a listing fee & a small percentage based on the final auction price. Use keywords like "family history" or "gene*logy" (you'd be amazed at how often this word is spelled as geneology) to search for genealogy items. To search, go to http://pages.ebay.com/aw/search.html Before bidding on an item, review the seller's feedback - this is the number in parentheses next to their userid - generally if the userid has feedback over 100, I no longer check it (but until you feel comfortable, check the feedback) - that means at least 100 different users have made positive comments about that user. To seewhat a feeback file looks like, you can look at mine as an example: http://cgi2.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewFeedback&userid=leanne If a seller has no/low feedback & requires payment by MO, avoid bidding on that auction. If an auction is no graphic & the description is hazy, ask questions of the seller - if they do not answer or do not answer to your satisfaction, avoid bidding on that auction. I have found a few treasures on eBay, mostly non-genealogy - I am a packrat - er - collector of various themes - old dolls, Ford Mustang, chihuahua, Nancy Drew/Cherry Ames/Judy Bolton...But, I recently got a cool old book about Alsace-Lorraine which is the region my LUTHER ancestors occupied before they moved to the colonies circa 1750. If you plan to sell on auctions, take a look at my auction tips page at http://www.geocities.com/~fannincounty/auction-tips.html Happy bidding & selling....Warning: eBay is ADDICTIVE!!!!

I am most interested in you WEAVER/HARDWICK marriage. I have searched many years for George P. WEAVER and Joanna HARDWICK. George was b. @1810, KY?, married Joanna Hardwick, b. 1813, KY, d. 1899, IN. (d/o of Henry Hardwick and Joanna Hall). I have never found a marriage for them. They had 8 children according to the Federal census records. They were in Nicholas Co., KY in 1850. Also there is a Reuben Weaver, b. 1813, KY, who married Cinthia Hardwick, b. 1810 KY, (also d/o Henry Hardwick and Joanna Hall). Reuben and Cinthia married @1835, KY. I suspect Reuben is the brother of George but have no proof yet. Both families are listed in the 1860 IN census. George in Jackson Co. IN and Reuben in Shelby Co. IN. I have no parents or siblings for these two WEAVER men. I do have a lot of Hardwick information. Any help appreciated.
I am searching for any information at all regarding James WEAVER and Nancy HARDWICK. I know they had a daughter Winnie WEAVER that married Jason W BOSHERS in 1849/50 Maury Co., TN. They had 11 children. Does any of this sound familiar to anyone? Any help at all will be appreciated. Thank you. Charlotte

A branch of these families were in Monroe County, TN before 1860.>>> The come from Frederick Weaver, b. 1759/60 VA and Lewis Click ( Johann Gluck>>was spelled Lewis Click by 1780). David Adam WEAVER was born Oct. 7, 1809, in Tennessee. He married. Emily (Emely?) Ann VICKERS in Troup Co., GA Jan. 15, 1837. D. A. WEAVER was in Troup Co., GA because of service in the Creek Indian War. The couple were in Sevier Co., ARK. ca 1860 and that is where the first documented contact I know of occured between the WEAVER's and CLICK's. That was a marriage between Marcellus C. CLICK and Nancy Jane Weaver ca 1860 in Savier Co..Ark. Also at the BLM/GLO web site for Ark. the record for Nancy Jane Weaver's brother, John, also contained the name of Marcellus CLICK in the area marked NOTES. I don't know the reason for that name being there.. I've never seen another record on that site with a name in the NOTES box. However, the brother, John "Bud" Vickers Weaver, died in a POW camp in Chicago, IL. after capture by Union Army. Maybe M. C. CLICK inherited it from his brother-in- law. For the purpose of answering you question, John V. WEAVERs place of birth and not his death is of interest. He was born March 16, 1838 in Tenn. If we look at that time-line it shows David and Emily in GA 1837, Tenn 1838. However, another of their children was born in AL ca 1844. I believe they checked in for the 1850 census in Coosa Co., AL. Another child was born in AL ca 1851 but the next was born in Bossier Parish, LA in 1854. We think Marcellus C. Click was born in Dec. 1832 in Ala.. He shows up in 1850 US Census, Lafayette County, Arkansas, Moss Township, p. 173: Matthias B. Click 59 M Farmer Va Nancy " 55 F Tenn John M. " 27 M Farmer Ala James " 23 M " Ala Rufus " 19 M " Ala Marcellus " 17 M " Tenn If this census is accurate re: the children's birthplaces, then Matthias B. Click would have left Tuscaloosa County, Alabama ca. 1831 and moved somewhere in Tennessee. He would have left Tennessee for Arkansas after ca.1833. Matthias B. Click's wife, Nancy Moss Click was from Wilson County, Tennessee. In Deed Book K, 1793 - 1829., Division of the lands of Thomas Moss deceased. Heirs: Nancy Click, Minerva Britton, Silas Chapman, James Moss, Elizabeth Moss, Zelpha Moss' heirs, Sally Johnson, Thomas Moss, and Lucy's heirs. December 1824 (pp. 419-420) As Matthias B. Click and Nancy Moss were also married in Wilson County, Tennessee, it appears that the Moss family roots are in that area. This would be the Middle Tennessee area around the present Lebanon, Tennessee near the Cumberland River, about 30 miles east of Nashville. Then there is Wilson WEAVER. He may be D. A. WEAVER's uncle but he is just barely old enough to be his father. Wilson WEAVER married Mary Jane MUNN, 11 Feb. 1813 in eastern TN or NC. Wilson WEAVER enlisted 9-1-1814, discharged 2-1-1815 at Elizabeth, Carter Co., TN. He served as a Private in Jessie Cole's Company, Tennessee Militia,. 1820 CENSUS Lawrence Co., TN 1830 CENSUS CarrolL Co., TN 1840 CENSUS DeSoto Co., MS 1850 CENSUS Hempstead Co., AR Mary Jane MUNN died ca 1866-67 Nevada Co., AR Wilson WEAVER died 02-Aug. 1881 Nevada Co., AR. By that time the WEAVER - CLICK relationship was well established and they were making a name in TEXAS. I guess I didn't answer your question very well. However, if this provides you with any clue please let me know. WEAVERTRK

Bandera, Texas THOMAS CLICK KILLED In the fall of 1866 Thomas Click was killed by Indians near what is known as Ranger Crossing on the Medina River, three miles from Bandera. He had started from Bandera one night to visit a man named Huffman, who lived six miles west of town and was preparing to move away. At the forks of the road the Indians came upon him; he was unarmed and could put up no defense, so was easily killed by lance thrusts. He fell by the roadside and the Indians stripped him and dragged him into the high grass a short distance away. The next day his brother, M. C. Click, and D. A. Weaver came along and noticed a pool of blood by the road, and upon investigation they found a small butcher knife which they recognized as belonging to Tom Click. After further search the body was found. Officers in town were notified and an inquest was held, after which Click's body was brought to Bandera and buried. A hastily organized party took the trail of the Indians, but they were not overtaken. Click was riding a mule at the time, which the Indians secured and carried away with them. end of article M. C. CLICK was Marcellus Collin "Marsh" CLICK. D. A. WEAVER was his father-in-law, David Adam WEAVER. Yes, this is an interesting family. Grant
