(Hello ladies! Sorry for the delay!) I'm always trying to save some time--I have a three-year-old who keeps me very busy. YES, I am 99% sure that is the very same Sarah Allison/Ellison. The Roane County, WV death records book lists her dob as 1798 in "Ashland" County, NC (I figured it was Ashe but I checked to make sure and there is no Ashland County NC), her date of death as 6-19-1858 in Roane County, VA (later WV) and her parents as William and Peggy Ellison. Sarah Allison/Ellison and John Ferrell had at least 10 children, 3 of which were the Belinda, Mary and Nancy you mentioned. I am descended from Belinda Ferrell, who married William Hamon. The Ferrell family did live in Russell County, VA--most if not all of their children were born there. The Ferrell line seems to be a little complicated--I know there are several John Ferrells of the right age in the right area, and someone mentioned that at least 2 of them had wives named Sarah/Sallie! I have not done any serious work on that line, so I can't say if Sarah/Sallie Ferrell is a sister to John, but I would think it likely if they married siblings. I will share anything I have, and would love to have the list of 12 children for William & Margaret/Peggy Allison/Ellison. I have seen her surname as Blackwood--is this unproven? I did find a marriage record for William Allison & Margaret Blackwood in Augusta County, VA, in an appropriate year but I have no firm proof that this is the same pair. Also, where did the nickname "Master" come from? I have the Ashe County census book containing the years 1800-1840, so if anyone needs Allison information from those years just let me know. Hope to hear from you all again--maybe we should join an Allison mailing list (I'm sure Rootsweb has one, or we could request one for descendants of William & Margaret) and converse there??

Can Someone Tell me! During a visit to W.V I found several relatives buried at both Glovers Gap Cemetery and The Youst Cemetery in Glovers Gap. Are they the same cemetary? If not, where are they? Thanks Mary

John born in Ireland, William married Jane Baird born in Pa. Robert married Mary Winters born in Pa. Henry and Charles also born in Pa. Nancy, Cathrine and Lavinia are for sure William Henrys aunts who never married, born in WV They are in the census with William and Nancy untill they die and then together for years.W.H. sent things to Aunt Nancy when he was in the Civil War. These people all lived in Sand Hill, WV All I have to do is find out which family W. H. fits into. Someone surely knows! Thanks, Adda

Hello; In an obituary for my 2nd great grandmother it states she died in Sinclairsville, WVa. I have been unsuccessful in finding where this is. Can anyone help? Susan Sorge Mailto:petsus@erols.com

I am asking again! Can someone out there tell me who William Henry Daugherty parents are? There are several possibilities. John,Henry,Robert,or who knows?? We find him at age 17 with his grandfather William who came from Ireland, sometime before 1800. W. H. grandmother was Nancy, also born in Ireland. W. H. married Anna (Catherine-Hannah) Lewis. He had a sister Martha, who married John Roney. They were all living in Sand Hill. These are my grandmother's family. She was Alice(Ally) Belle Daugherty wife of Harry L. Thornburg. Thanks for any clue. Adda Belle Thornburg Thornton

I thought some of you might enjoy reading this newscast from ABCNEWS on April 21st. Here's the gist: April 21 — It may be the world’s largest known family tree. Researchers from Oxford University in Oxford, England, have identified seven ancestral matriarchal groups from which all Europeans appear to be descended. These maternal clans form the root of a family tree that has sprouted millions of individuals. Every European, according to the study, can trace his or her evolutionary history back to the seven ancestral mother groups, also referred to as the Seven Daughters of Eve. The researchers, who both discovered and formulated the genetic groupings, say these women would have lived between 8,000 to 45,000 years ago. The URL for the web site is: http://abcnews.go.com/sections/science/DailyNews/daughters000420.html It's fascinating reading!

Hello Can someone tell me where Higginbotham Cemetery is in Boone Co. W.Va. Thanks Emma Vealey vevealey@aol.com

Speaking of Lamberts, does anyone have record of an Anna R. (Rogers perhaps) Lambert, b. May 30, 1810 in VA/WV? She married John Jesse Knifong (Neufang) in 1831 in Russell Co., VA, and then they moved to Sullivan Co., MO. I can't seem to find any trace of her background. A grandchild has Rogers for a middle name, and I thought perhaps that's what the R. stands for, as there are no Rogers anywhere at all on either side of the family. Thanks for any suggestions.
