In 1896, young Edward Cloid Fagan was killed in a freak accident. Children were playing beneath bleachers that were being torn down and one accidentally pushed out a support. The bleachers collapsed and killed Edward. The event occurred on 25 Nov 1896. I'm hoping that someone would look up the event in the newspaper so I can get a true account. I'll be happy to reimburse you. Let me know! Sue Strick <sue@strick1.com> Lorain County, Ohio -- Sue Strick, Moderator for the Lorain County Genealogy Mailing List at Rootsweb.com/

Hi there...   I'm not researching the Burgess line, but I know there are quite a few of you who do and I couldn't remember which list my Burgess surname friends are on, but I came across a 1830 census listing in St. Louis Tonwship, St. Louis County, Missouri for a George Burgess 3m<5, 1m 5-10, 1m 50-60, 1f 5-10, 1f 20-30. The image is on: Series: M19  Roll: 72  Page: 334   I know one branch of my own family migrated from KY down the Ohio river to the Mississippi River and eventually ended up in Texas, so thought this may tie into someone's WV Burgess family lineage....thought I would pass it back to ya'll...   If someone would like the image and doesn't have access to it, e-mail me and I'll look it up again and send it to you.   Hope this helps someone.

_Click here: FamilySearch Labs_ (http://www.labs.familysearch.org/) Link above. I agree with Joyce that there have been some things available that I haven't found through ancestry such as death records for many family members in Ohio. Lots to look over so take a few minutes and check out the site. In a message dated 7/28/2008 2:07:01 P.M. Pacific Daylight Time, jarmscoop@aol.com writes: ??? Dick Eastman had some good news for family history researchers. "For several years, the only places to find online U.S. Census records was Ancestry.com (rather expensive), Genealogy.com (also expensive), or at HeritageQuest Online (free to users but only available through subscribing libraries). These were the only sites to carry the images of the original records for entire states. It seems interesting that in the past few months, other web sites have started offering access to the same census record images and indexes. "The new pilot project of FamilySearch, owned by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, has the 1850, 1870, and 1900 U.S. Census records available free of charge. Some of the records are not yet complete. For instance, only 15 states' records are available today on the site. Details may be found at http://pilot.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html#p=0?.? Massachusetts and Wisconsin state census records are also available at the same location.? "Footnote.com now has the 1860 U.S. Census records online as part of its Civil War Collection. This copy of the U.S. census is completely indexed. While not free, the access is cheap at $7.95 a month for unlimited access. Details may be found at http://www.footnote.com?xid=46." I'm particularly impressed with the pilot project at Family Search. ? I have already found a Michigan birth listing that is not available on Ancestry, and a Washington death certificate that is more complete than the listing on Ancestry.

Sorry I didn't answer this sooner. The information I have is that Eugene Spurlock was the son of Henry Hampton Spurlock and Stella Beckner as you said.

HI Cathy... first off, this family is listed in KANAWHA Co, WV in 1880...not Putnam co. - -you had me going there for a bit ! hahah! and in the Kanawha County Family Tree Project at Rootsweb, it says that Melinda Adkins, wife of Hamilton Adkins, was born: MALINDA A. PEARSON circa 1836 in VA...and was the d/o Simon Pearson...bc 1782....you will find more on the Pearson family at that site also, but no entry for Malinda's mother. at other places it says that Simon Pearson married an Elizabeth Ellis on 26 July 1806 in Loudon Co. VA...but in the 1850 Cabell VA census it shows him as a widower: PERSON [mis-spelled!], Simon 68 MALINDA 14 Lewis 12 then in the 1860 CABELL Co. VA census: Adkins, Hamilton 26 MALINDA 24 William 8 Simon 6/12 PEARSON, SIMON 70 [listed as day labor!] Pearson, Sarah 17 so i think this gives more proof to Malinda's father being Simon Pearson, eh? Malinda Pearson married Hamilton Adkins in Cabell Co VA/ WV on Aug. 16, 1851, but her name was mis-recorded as BELINDA PIERSON!!! i did see that on the WV death certs that James Hamilton Adkins' death record listed "Racer" as his mother's last name, but i feel this was given by someone who didn't know ??? or the person recording it didn't hear the name correctly? Hope this helps a bit !

I recently came across death record for James Adkins. He died 15 November 1935 while residing on Coal Mountain in Putnam County. The record indicates that he was 72 years old at time of death, giving him a birth year of about 1863. He was buried in the Roberts cemetery. His parents are listed as HAMILTON ADKINS and MALINDA RACER. The information was provided by Howard Adkins (relationship to James not given).
