Bowden who d. 1865) MARGARET ROUNTREE'S parents were Thomas Rountree (b. about 1800 probably in Dinwiddie Co., Va.) and Sarah Unknown last name. Does that give you any clues to anything? Please do let me know if this opens up anything for you because I have been hoping to run across the Rountrees for some time.

Stephenson) To: tlillich@midusa.net ('tlillich@midusa.net') Tammy- My Burnett line went from Kentucky to Indiana in 1838. I am descended from James C. Burnett through his first child, Pryor Burnett, by J.C.'s first wife, Keziah Pulliam. It's possible that there is an Indiana connection here, but I have to do more digging to find out. If you are related to Jeremiah Burnett (Jerry?), we may have some connection to the Virginia Burnetts that the group is most heavily composed of. I am forwarding your message to Nyla and the Burnett Group to see if anyone knows anything! Keep your fingers crossed! Kevin K.

(I'm from Alta Vista, Ks.) about the Burnett family. Unfortunately I'm not much farther than I was when I wrote the first time. To refresh your memory a little I was searching for info on Jerry & Charlotte Baker Burnett, my GG Grandparents. I wrote to the Rockcastle Library in Rockcastle, Ky. and did receive the 1870 census. It lists: Jerry Burnett age 34 Blacksmith IN. Charlotte age 33 Keeping House KY. Schuyler age 12 Farms KY. Hannie age 10 Joseph age 8 Lettie age 6 Dovy age 4 Bruce age 2 (my Great Grandfather) Charlotte age 7 months All children born in Kentucky, as well as the mother.We had originally thought that Jerry was as well. Now we see from this he was from Indiana. I've read in the comps where there were Burnett families there, but know no more than just Jerry's name himself. No brothers, sisters, etc. Do any of these names sound familiar to you? And do you have any ideas on any Burnetts from Indiana? Please let me know.

Dowd) CC: wwturner@ix.netcom.com Nyla and William, I would like to offer some corrections on this line. There seems to be some confusion. These particular Turner's came out of Isle of Wight Co., VA. I checked the Southampton records for these dates and could find no mention of a Michael Turner, Isham Turner or Durham Turner. Will Books 1-5 didn't show any Whitlock families either.

Smith) Reply-to: newbet@txcyber.com Nyla and all -- I think we should have a Turner Day and declare all Turners related. These Turners are darn difficult to track. I've renamed my Turners -- There's Elusive Turner -- son of Anonymous and Unk. His Wife was also Unk and they had two children who were -- Can't Be Found and Darn Difficult to Find. Sorry -- but I'm about to give up on my Turners. Bette ====================== Bette: I think we all have at least one ancestor named Unknown (AKA Unk). Don't give up yet. New folks are joining our group all the time. Send us a reminder as to which Turner family is yours. Folks: Anyone who needs more help in locating their line can send me a query to include in the next compilation. Let's all be pro-active in finding that Unknown ancestor. I encourage everyone to look through all of the Compilations that are on Chris Gaunt's home page. They can be searched onLine, as well as downloaded. Thanks to Kevin, the files have been zipped. We are now at Compilation 191. If I haven't told you lately, let me say it now, "Thank you for sharing so much information on your family." This is a wonderful group of cousins.

Nancy Allen ================== Subj: Philpott connection Date: 97-09-02 17:17:04 EDT From: HarrisSEM To: NCreed1, jcox@jps.net Hi! I hope both of you get this ok. Sorry it took me a while to get back to you about Drucilla Philpott-I had to work all this weekend. We are not related. All of this Turner etc stuff is all on my husband's maternal side, so you are related to him and my children. I guess I could be a cousin-in-law? : ) Here is a brief outline of his Turner-Burnett-Philpott line: 1. Shadrack Turner and Ann Hill---> 2. William Turner and Jane Hunter---> 3a. Rev. John Turner and Nancy Burnett----> 4. Ruth Turner and John Lackey---> 5. William Crawford Lackey and Martha J. Sneed---> 6. George W. Lackey and Elizabeth Turner ( dau. James W. Turner & Susan A. Adams. James son of Josiah Hunter Turner , Jr. and Malinda Ruth Ingram) 7. Sarah Lou Lackey and Shade Lee Rakes---> 8. Eva Ruth Rakes and Henry Garfield Harris---> 9. Charles Harris and Sherril "Sherry" Whitaker---> 10. We have 3 children. 3b. Josiah Hunter Turner , Sr. and Drucilla Price Philpott---> 4. Josiah Hunter Turner, Jr., and Malinda Ruth Ingram ( his second wife)--> 5a. James W. Turner and Susan A. Adams---> 6. Elizabeth Ruth Turner and George W. Lackey---> 7. Sarah Lou Lackey and Shade Lee Rakes---> 8. Eva Ruth Rakes and Henry Garfield Harris---> 9. Charles Harris and Sherril Whitaker---> 10. We have 3 children. 5b. Malinda Ruth Turner and John Jefferson Rakes---> 6. Shade Lee Rakes and Sarah Lou Lackey---> 7. Eva Ruth Rakes and Henry Garfield Harris---> 8. Charles Harris and Sherril Whitaker---> 9. We have 3 children. As an aside from above, James W. Turner and Susan A. Adams had a daughter, Elizabeth Ruth Turner who married George W. Lackey . Their daughter, Sarah Lou Lackey was my huband's natural grandmother. James and Susan had another daughter, Exoney Malinda Turner who married James Lovell and their daughter, Effie Elizabeth Lovell married Shade Lee Rakes after Sarah's death and became my husband's step-grandmother! As you can see the Turners-Burnett- Philpott line is so important. The Philpotts and Turners led to my husbands grandfather, Shade Lee Rakes. The Philpotts and Turners also led to my husband's g-grandmother, Elizabeth Ruth Turner, while the Turners and Burnetts led to Elizabeth Ruth's husband, my husbands g-grandfather, George W. Lackey. So, the Philpotts (from Edward Philpott) are his 8th great grandparents ( on his grandfather's side) and his 9th great grandparents (on his grandmothers side) Drucilla was the only g-g-g-grandparent whose parents I did not have. Now I do, and more, thanks to your help! The information and help that you both gave me was so important to our family tree and I sincerely thank you! Hope this wasn't too confusing. Sherry ===================== Sherry, Thanks for sharing that success story with us. It is great that we were able to help.
