Does anyone know anything about the Murray family which, I assume, Murraysville was named for. If so, I would appreciate hearing from you as I have someone from Long Bottom across the river who married William Murray in 1842 in Meigs Co. He doesn't seem to belong in Meigs Co. so may have come from Jackson. Thanks for any help you can give. Pat JOhnson Cedarville, OH

Brian, Yes this is the same Nicholas Parsons. Do you have any information on his second wife, Elizabeth Dougherty?

Jackson County researchers, I would like to warn each of you that this message that was posted on the list earlier is a SCAM. I thought that the techs at Ancestry.com/RootsWeb had found a way to block these postings but see that they have found a way around them again. If you try to email Jackson@Jackson.com you will find that it is a forged address. They are promising to sell you information that they do not have and I would strongly recommend avoiding them Les Shockey At 10:49 AM 8/8/01 -0600, Jackson@Jackson.com wrote: >I found a great Jackson County Genealogy Site: > >http://65.10.15.149/FreeGen/Home.html > >They will be adding over 1 billion names to their online database over the >next few months. > > >==== WVJACKSO Mailing List ==== >Support the people who support you.
