Hello everyone, My name is Mary Alice Brown and I've been doing genealogy for 10 years, since I took a course through the community education class here in College Station, TX. Since then, I've been researching my line and my husband's line at the same time!!! I have recently been working on the surname of GARTIN/GARTEN's. My husband's line begins with his greatgrandmother, Eliza Milinda GARTIN, b. 22 Jul 1874 MO. Her father was Parkinson GARTIN, b. in Decatur Co, IN. His father was Allen GARTIN, b. Nov 1822/1823 in Monroe County. I have found out who Allen's parents/siblings were by looking at other websites and homepages. But as yet, I haven't found exact proof of Parkinson-Allen-or Parkinson's mother/siblings. Family lore suggests that Allen was 1st cousin to Davy Crockett, but you know how that goes!!! (GRIN, GRIN) Any leads would be most appreciative!! Sincerely, Mary Alice

Hello everyone, I want to thank everyone who has contacted me regarding my web site ( http://www.rkauser.com/Kauser_Genealogy_Homepage.htm ).

Looking for information on John Canterbury, b c 1788 the son of John and Nancy Lowe Canterbury. On September 15, 1808 he married Polly Locket as documentd in the Monroe County Marriage Records. This family ended up in Giles County, Virgina where John was a minister. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Willing to share information on John's siblings. Thanks, Cathy

Looking for information/descendents of Mary Canterbury, b 1787 in Monroe County or Greenbriar County VA, the daughter of John and Nancy Lowe Canterbury. She died October 14, 1858 in New River, WV. She married George Stephenson, Jr. June 13, 1805 in Monroe County, Va. Their marriage is documented in the Monroe County Marriage Records. Both Mary and George are buried at the Keaton Cemetery near Greenville in Monroe County. This is all the information that I have on either of these people. Thanks for any help that any of you may give me. Cathy

Hi Everyone, I am trying to locate information/descendents of Zadock Canterbury, born c 1797, son of John and Nancy Lowe Canterbury. Information that I have indicates that Zadock married Marcina Snow about 1840 and moved from Monroe County to Roane County where he died November 15, 1886. The 1860 Roane County census indicates that Zadock and Marcina had 7 children with at least 3 born prior to the marriage date of 1840. I am questioning this marriage date. Also believe that Zadock had a son named Zadock who married Mariah Jane Campbell January 10, 1848. The 1870 West Virginia Index indicates that there was a Z. Canterbury, age 69, male, white, living in Walton Township, Roane County, WV. There is also a Zadock Canterbury, age 45, male, white living in Forest Hill Township, Monroe County WV. I believe that Zadock was the son of Z Canterbury. Are there any researchers/descendents of Zadock Sr. or Jr. on this list. If so, I would be most interested in talking to you. Thanks, Cathy

Did any of your Packs live in Giles County in 1870? I'm searching for my Johnston ancestors and noticed in 1870 census that there was a Pack family on either side of them. I'm grasping at straws here, but thought there might be a Pack connection.

Teresa; Don't be sorry. ELECTRONICS have a mind of their own! Glad we found each other again. I will need your regular mail address in the next few days, to send print out of Pack stuff. Send me anything you want, will put it all together and send copies to each of those who shared, so we can compare notes. Joyce Y, Whiting IN Joyce, I am here and don't know why you my mail bounced. Sorry for the trouble. I do want any info you can offer.

Hello all, Please let me introduce myself. My name is Rock S. Kauser, and I have been researching my Monroe Co. and Greenbrier Co. connections for the past fifteen years. The main Monroe/Greenbrier lines that I descend from include CAMPBELL, HONAKER, NICELY, QUICK, TAPP, WAID, WISEMAN, and YATES just to name a few. I subscribed to this list several months ago, but work commitments kept me from my research so I dropped off of most the lists that I had subscribed to. In early February of this year I finally got serious about a Web site where I could share some of the information that I have collected on over 12,000 individuals. You can access my site at: http://www.rkauser.com or you can go directly to the good stuff (the genealogy data!) by pointing to http://www.rkauser.com/Kauser_Genealogy_Homepage.htm As of yesterday I had over 15 meg of genealogy data on my site and I am adding more as I get the chance. Today I added the following new information of interest to researchers of Greenbrier Co. and Monroe Co., WV: CAMPBELL, Alexander: Marriage bonds (1823) [to HONAKER, Margaret] CAMPBELL, Balis Thomas: Photo of tombstone (1867 – 1943) CAMPBELL, Balis Thomas: Obituaries (1943) CAMPBELL, Balis Thomas: Death Certificate (1943) CAMPBELL, Balis Thomas: Certificate of Marriage (1897) DAVIS, Elizabeth: Photo of grave marker (1738 – 1807) FRIER, Jamima (YATES): Last Will and Testament HONAKER, Frederick: Photo of plaque @ Rehoboth Church HONAKER, Jacob: Photo of plaque @ Rehoboth Church HONAKER, Margaret: Marriage bonds (1823) [to CAMPBELL, Alexander] WAID, Lewis C.: Death Certificate (1930 WAID, Lewis C.: Photo of tombstone (1852 – 1930) WAID, Willie Cass (CAMPBELL): Photo of tombstone (1878 – 1908) WAID, Willie Cass: Certificate of Marriage (1897) WISEMAN, Isaac: Photo of grave marker (1738 – 1818) WISEMAN, Joseph: Photo of grave marker These items and much more can be accessed at: http://www.rkauser.com/Kauser_Genealogy_Homepage.htm Best regards, Rock Kauser Rock S.
