More wonderful eMails to share. Be sure to check out all our compilations on Chris Gaunt's home page (address below). Just a reminder that the VIA mailing list is up and running. See Comp #258 for details. Nyla CREED DePauk San Diego CA =================== Subj: Info Date: 97-11-16 09:32:09 EST From: MDTQW I've not responded to your survey before because it seems all the really interesting info is snipped. Would like to feel I know some of these folks better. Anyway, don't remember exactly what was asked for but, heregoes: Name: Diane Turner Warren Age: Born Meriwether County, GA where five generations of my Turners have lived, and my parents are still there. Live now Atlanta, GA Occupation: and lot of temping and five years of self-employment. Now I work at various things on an irregular basis. My current project is writing letters to children, adults, pets, whatever, from Santa Claus or a Christmas Angel. So until after the season, will have little time for genealogical activity. My status: My lines: Simonton, Skelton, Lee (not VA), Turner, McCrary, Pope, Keith, Posey ===================== Diane: Survey results start with compilation #252. A few responses are in later issues. I snipped the survey questions from the eMails, but the answers to the four questions have been published. Didn't want to make all our personal information along with our names and screen names available to the whole world. I often think about where this type of personal information might show up again. Nyla ===================== Subj: RE: Comp 258 - Burnett-Turner-Ross-Via-Etc/Etc Date: 97-11-16 02:45:38 EST From: chickflet@aristotle.net (chickflet) This is in reply to Jeannie or MadamX. 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. That is all I know about her. Chick Burnett Fletcher ===================== Subj: To Waddie Salmon and group Date: 97-11-16 10:32:26 EST From: madamx@trellis.net (Jeannie) Waddie, Won't you help support the GenWeb project by contributing your newly finished index to the Bedford County Archives? What I do on my web page is I submit all of my original transcriptions to the archives (that way they don't even take up any of my allowed server space), link to them from my page just as if they were on my own site, and encourage my visitors to support the archives in the same way. As the brand new coordinator of Bedford County archives (and many others), I think that would make a wonderful contribution! I am at this very moment revamping the Bedford County Archives Table of Contents Web page and it's my last one of 12...whew!!! It will hopefully be ready today for everyone to see. If you are agreeable, you can either email me or reply on the list. We need everyone's help to make these archives grow!!! Thanks, Jeannie _____ Jeannie (aka Madam X) http://www.trellis.net/users/madamx ***The truth is out there...can you help me find it?*** PLEASE SUPPORT THE GENWEB PROJECT!!! Archive Coordinator for the following VA Counties: Patrick, Henry, Franklin, Tazewell, Floyd, Pittsylvania, Halifax, Carroll, Pulaski, Montgomery, Bedford, and Campbell. Start here for more info: http://www.rootsweb.com/~usgenweb/va/vafiles.htm ========================== Subj: Philpott in Henry Co, VA Date: 97-11-16 10:34:10 EST From: Chochojay To: NCreed1, herrenk@email.uah.edu In the last week or so I have received e-mail telling me that both of you have information on pages on the internet. I have tried to look at your pages but for some reason AOL will not allow me to do this. They keep telling me they cannot access that info at this time or that all lines or tied up. So I thought I would try a direct e-mail and see what happens. The internet addresses I have tried are: http://www-personal.umich.edu/`cgaunt and http://www.public.usit./net/herfam. Needless to say that I am not a compter know it all so I may be doing something wrong. [Chris' homepage is actually: http://www-personal.umich.edu/~cgaunt = = = Nyla] I have a data base of over 29,000 names and a lot of them are from Henry, Franklin, Patrick, Pittsylvania and Floyd Counties, Virginia. I take my Phipott ancestors back to 1387 in England and from Charles Co., Maryland to Henry Co., Virginia and then all over the U.S.A. There are over 6000 descendants of the Lord Mayor of London, John Philpot in this data base. I have family histories on the Turner, Stultz, Cahill, Dyer, Minter and other families from these same counties. I have at least six marriages between the Turner and Philpott families, some of which I cannot connect to parents and/or ancestors on both the Turner and Philpott side. I would like to share this information with both of you in hopes that I can clear up some of the problems I have with these families. I can send and receive GEDCOM files. I use the computer family history program called Family Origins put out by Parsons. If you are interested in sharing information on Henry County families please let me know by e-mail. I make two trips a year back to Henry County and try to gather as much information as I can from the courthouse of Henry, Franklin and Patarick Counties on these trips. I have a computer index on marriages after 1853 from these counties. The ones prior to 1853 have already been printed in books. I understand there is a new book our on the Franklin Co., marriages after 1853 but do not have a copy of it. Have either one of you contacted Pat Ross of the Bassett Public Library in Bassett, Virginia? I have been told that she has the second best genalogical reserach library in Virginia. I visit her and the library on each of my trips back to Henry County. She has assisted me greatly in my research. If either of you is interested in comparing notes on Henry County, Virginia families please let me know. Lets see just howmuch we agree on three different researches of families from this county. Who, knows. We may end up being long lost cousins. Pete Philpott ===================== Pete: I have a mailing list called Burnett-Turner-Ross-Via-Etc/Etc. The Etc/Etc takes covers any family that ties into these families. The original interest was Southwestern Virginia counties, but a lot of interest is being shown in other families living elsewhere with these names. And of course, we have some Philpott interest. I added you to our mailing list. Just let me know if you want to be removed. All our compilations are on Chris Gaunt's home page: http://www-personal.umich.edu/~cgaunt They can be searched on line and downloaded. Any information you care to share with the group will be greatly appreciated. Would prefer an outline, family group sheet, narrative, etc. GED files are wonderful, but they don't work too well for me when I'm trying to cut and paste information for the compilations. Nyla ===================== Subj: Burnetts Date: 97-11-16 14:30:43 EST From: tlillich@midusa.net Hello Nyla and all; Thought I'd write again with just a few added tidbits" I am slowly picking up in hopes someone might see something they might be able to help me with! I have been searching for information on my gggrandfather Jeremiah Burnett. Now I have seen and read about ALL the Jeremiahs in the comps, but haven't been able to place mine with the right family!! I've not been able to place mine PERIOD!! My Jeremiah was born appx. 1836-37. I believe he was probably born in Kentucky or Indiana. I know that his mother's name was definitely Elizabeth, "Betsy", and that he had also had a sister named Elizabeth, as I have found their names tying in with him in the Madison Co. Ky. Marriage Books. It states: Jeremiah Burnett, of Bartholomew Co., IN., 20, mar. Jan 27,1857 to; Charlotty Baker, 19, Bnd; William F. Hoskins, Consent; Betsy Hoskins-MG, Letty Baker-MB Coleman L. Hoskins, mar. Jan 28, 1852 to Elizabeth Burnett, Bnd; Fielding Golden, Consent; Betsy Hoskins-MB (There we have proof of at least one sibling to Jeremiah, same mother)!! I've also found this: John Hoskins, mar. 3 Oct 1850 to Mrs. Elizabeth Burnett, Bnd; Thomas Franklin Moore, Return; 10 Oct 1850 This leads me to believe that Jeremiah's mother, Elizabeth, "Betsy" either was divorced from his father or his father died and she remarried this Hoskins fellow. Somehow I think this Fielding Golden ties in somewhere with the family, as it shows him paying bond for Coleman Hoskins and Elizabeth Burnett and I also found where a Mollie Burnett married Elisha A. Robinson Feb 22, 1894, Bnd; J.L. Ambrose, Consent; Sarah E. Moore-MG, Fielding Golden-CUB, relationship unknown. Could this CUB mean cousin of the bride? I found this marriage; James Loman, 2nd marriage, born in Scott Co. 62, mar. Apr 27 1865 to; Nancy Jane Hoskins, 29, Bnd; James Burnett, Consent; John Hoskins-FB, born in Va. I presume this was a half sister to my Jeremiah and his sister Elizabeth as she would have been born in 1836 if she was 29 in 1865. I am wondering if my Jeremiah Burnett decends from William Burnett Sr. from Amherst Co. Va. It is my understanding that William Burnett Sr. migrated to Bartholomew Co. In. from Amherst Co. Va. Probably late 1700', early 1800's. Wife's name?? Children: William Jr., Sally, Bond, Fanny (Tooley), Lucy (Pearson), Ibby (Witt), and Milly (Witt). William Sr. was born appx 1770 and died 1835. William Jr. married first Nancy Davis, Children: Bond, Isabel, Matilda (Perry), Jeremiah, Sarah (Cox), Millie Francis (Elkston. Isabel married about 1841 in Bartholomew Co IN. I have found where Bond Burnett married 30 Dec 1814 to Elizabeth Campbell, Bnd; Wilson Gillispie, Consent; Audley Campbell-FB Does anyone know who Bond and Elizabeth Campbells children were? And is this Bond William Sr. Burnetts son Bond, or William Jr.'s son?? Jeremiah, son of William Jr. was born appx 1820. Does anyone know if this Jeremiah married and to whom, and children? I am beginning to wonder if my Jeremiah is the son of one of these Bond Burnetts or possibly William Jrs, son Jeremiah??!! I know this must sound terribly confusing!! It's terribly confusing to me!! I know that Kevin had Burnetts in Indiana. Do any of these names ring a bell with you Kevin?? And I was hoping maybe June Bork might know the names of Bond and Elizabeth Campbell Burnetts children, or something about Jeremiah Burnett, son of William Jr. Can anyone help piece this together. I tend to lean that my Jeremiah was born in Indiana due to the marriage bond states he was from Bartholomew Co. We are in the process of hopefully finding the marriage certificate and death certificate. Any thoughts, ideas of where to look next, knowlege would be GREATLY APPRECIATED!!!! Look forward to hearing from anyone!!! Sincerely, Tammy Burnett Lillich ================= The end of this compilation.
