See below. More cousins have resonded to our poll. From the responses, we certainly have a lot of variety among our group. Although we may be very different in many ways, we all have at least one thing in common--learning about our ancestors. ======================== Subj: GEDCOMs Date: 97-11-19 02:55:33 EST From: cgaunt@umich.edu (Christine E. Gaunt) To: NCreed1@AOL.COM (Nyla Creed DePauk) Nyla, and All, If folks want to share their GEDCOMs, I can store them either on my server space at www-personal.umich.edu/~cgaunt (I keep increasing my storage space there as needed), or on Genealogy Online (www.genealogy.org/~gaunt/) One neat thing about GEDCOMs is that they can be converted to html and uploaded to a web page. I've done this for another surname (Gant/Gaunt), and the results are pretty neat. You can see the intro page at: http://www-personal.umich.edu/~cgaunt/Gaunt/gant/index.htm I think it would be neat to list names and email addresses of folks researching that family at the bottom of each family group sheet page. Anyway, if folks have a file they want made available, they can send it to me (but if it's really large, give me a warning so I can clean out my mailbox! ) Chris Christine Gaunt, cgaunt@umich.edu Campbell-L listowner Co-compiler of Genealogy Resources on the Internet Web: http://www-personal.umich.edu/~cgaunt/gen_int1.html File (1.8M): via autoreply from gresinet.txt@genealogy.emcee.com ============================ Subj: Re: Comp 237 - Burnett-Turner-Ross-Via-Etc/Etc Date: 97-11-17 21:22:35 EST From: CaseyGenea To: NCreed1 I had fun watching the information coming in.

I ended up replacing the system board in my computer to stop the problems I've been having. Will be converting the compilation zipfiles to self-extracting mode this week. Jonathan says he can unzip them just fine. Tammy- I don't recognize any of the names you mention, but it's possible they tie into my line somewhere. My ancestors were in Owen and Putnam counties in Indiana, and Shelby County, Kentucky...I haven't looked at a map...are these even close?? When I get caught back up again, I'll research this more thoroughly! Kevin K.

According to Pioneer Families of Franklin Co.,VA, Mechach Sr. and Rebecca (Robertson) Turner had sons James and John, daughter Rebecca. I've just been told by a Byrd cousin that John, s/o Meshach & Rebecca may be the father of "my" Rebecca. However, according to an email I rec'd, info believed to be from WFT, "my" Rebecca is the daughter of Meshach S. Turner and Sally Farmer. Does anyone have anything that might help me here?

Right now I'm working on the National Genealogical Society course and since I live in upstate NY and none of my ancestors are from around here, I have accomplished much on my own lines lately. I descend from John Turner and Elizabeth Dillard(?) through their son George. I'm interested in many surnames. My Rosses are from IL via NJ and MA. Good luck with your survey.

Needless to say, I have a lot of E-mail to respond to! I know this is late, but Iwanted to let you know that I am reading your mailings and hope to find a connection! my stats: I inherited 75+year of Gen. material from my husband's gr Aunt who was a professional Genealogist. I'm over-whelmed, but hooked none-the-less! Thanks! Debra Burnett ===================== Subj: Re: Comp #238 - Burnett-Turner-Ross-Via-Etc/Etc Date: 97-11-18 14:02:27 EST From: RTact I am responding to your poll. I hope it's not to late as I have been off of AOL for a couple of weeks, having updates made to our system. Feel free to use any of my information. I live in Maryland ( near Frederick), although I am a Virginian at heart, as I was born and raised there. I have four children ranging from first grade to a freshman in college. I have been involved with genealogy for about 6 years, trying to tie my VA/NC Turner's to the MANN surname. I paint beautiful glasswear in my spare time. (I will be online with my crafts within a month.) I am researching the surnames: TURNER, MANN AND, BUFFIN, all of Virginia. Thanks to the wonderful information I have recv'd from your newsletter, I have now put my Turners in Patrick and Henry Counties of Virginia. Cynthia ================= Cynthia: It's not too late. Old news is the best news for genealogy fans.

Unfortunately, with names like Clark, John, Sarah, Susanna, it makes things extrememly difficult. I'm getting very frustrated with the whole thing!!! I've ordered 111 original Patrick Co. Deeds as a last resort. Thank goodness for my cousin going in with me financially on the project! I figure if the deeds don't help, I'll be out of a lot of money for nothing, but I've got to try it. If nothing else, maybe I can find some other way to do something good with these original records. BTW, no one has replied to my earlier question about land records and my Susannah Reynolds possibly being a widow. If anyone has any ideas on this, PLEASE share them with me! Thanks again!

Sarah Stephens born circa 1790, in Amherst or Patrick Co., VA, daughter of Mary Unknown Burnett (first married to John Burnett that died in the Rev. War from Amherst Co., VA) and Philip Stephens, married a Mr. Clark. I think she is in 1830 Monroe County, Tennessee, census as a widow, along with several of her brothers. I don't know Mr. Clark's first name. In his 1830 Roane County, Tennessee, probate, Philip Stephens names her as Sarah or Sally Clark.

I took the time to go through all of it looking for Burnett researchers. A lot of them I didn't recognise the names or addresses so I wrote to them. And guess what? I found a brand new cuzin! What I have done is create a Burnett/e (and various spellings) guest book on my Burnett page. Not everyone knows about Nyla'a compilation pages yet but they can find mine and your Burnett web site. I hope they all will do as I did and look at and sign the book. If you would, please sign the guest book and leave your surnames you research there. IT WORKS! Could be a "not yet found" cuzin has the ancestors you are looking for. If you have a Burnett web site or a web site with Burnett information PLEASE let me know so I may create a link to it. My web site is at, http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/3348 Thanks all, Cuzin Waddie ======================= Subj: BURNETT Date: 97-11-21 09:07:07 EST From: burnett@bright.net (J.R.Burnett) To: NCreed1@AOL.COM File: Re BURNETT.eml (2628 bytes) DL Time (14400 bps): < 1 minute From: J.R.Burnett To: NCreed1@aol.com Subject: BURNETT Date: Thursday, November 20, 1997 2:23 PM Here is my Burnetts for the group.
