Message-ID: Content-type: text/plain; charset=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7bit Sorry to have to send this to the mailing list at large, but Sherry emailed me tonight with her family data and it looks as though we are definitely kin! Trouble is, when I tried to retrieve her message when I was offline in order to prepare a response, it was no longer in my mailbox. If there is anyway that you can possible email me again with your family info, Sherry, I would be so grateful!! I apologize for the trouble and inconvenience -- I honestly have no idea what happened to your original message! (It has been awfully hot -- I must have accidentally deleted it in a heat-fuelled trance. :{ ) Thank you so much, Sherry -- looking forward to hearing from you again!

Recently, two compilations have become available for Franklin County Marriages. MARRIAGE BONDS OF FRANKLIN COUNTY, VIRGINIA, 1787-1853 MARRIAGE RECORDS OF FRANKLIN COUNTY, VIRGINIA 1853-1875. Both are based upon the records found in the Franklin County Courthouse in Rocky Mount, VA. Beverly Merritt is the author. The first book shows the married couples names and the bond date as well as the marriage date. The second book gives the couples names, their ages and the names of their parents as well as the marriage dates. Both books have alphabetically arranged lists for males and females. They have been immensely helpful in filling in gaps and giving me the parents names of spouses marrying into my family. The books have also provided new names of family previously unknown to me. You can contact Beverly Merritt at: P. O. Box 316, Ferrum, VA 24088. Her phone number is: (540) 483-3657. -------------- Nell Hailey has published the FRANKLIN COUNTY VIRGINIA DEATH RECORDS, 1853-1896. It is published by Iberian Publishing Company, 548 Cedar Creek Drive, Athens, GA 30605. This book not only give the date of death, but, in many instances, shows the cause of death. Often, the spouse's name is provided as well as parents and place of birth. As is the case of most families from Franklin County, VA, my primary line, Altick/Altice, married into the Sink, Dillon, Turner, Frantz, Angle families. Just to mention a few. I have sent my data to the Franklin County Genealogical Society and it is available to all. If you have any inquiries on your family, I will be happy to share what I have.

Most of the attendees in past years have been the descendants of John Nowlin (born abt. 1766-died 17 Mar 1955) living in Southwest and Central Virginia. However related families such as the Turners, Burnetts, Thomas, Shorts, Rakes, and others are welcome to attend. It is a pot luck affair, with everyone bringing dishes to contribute to the lunchtime meal. The start time is about 0900. Please bring any genealogical materials that you have to share with others who are interested in tracing the family history.
