The land west of the Rockies was under joint control of the U.S. and Britain. That boundary was settled in 1846 with the Oregon Treaty. South of 49th parallel, Illinois was admitted as the twenty-first state. Initially the northern boundary was set just below the southern end of Lake Michigan, but at a population of around 36,000, Illinois was short of the necessary 60,000 minimum required for statehood. Illinois Congressional delegate, Nathaniel Pope, suggested that it would make better sense to move the boundary northward to include the City of Chicago and the area upon which the I & M Canal would be built, connecting the Great Lakes with the Mississippi River, and from there the Gulf of Mexico. In the South, the First Seminole War resulted from the escalation of conflicts between the Seminoles and settlers who were moving into Seminole territory. The Seminoles provided a sanctuary for escaped slaves and this provided additional fuel for the fire. Andrew Jackson pursued the Seminoles into Florida, which was then under Spanish control. His victory led to the accession of Florida to the U.S. the following year. In the Ohio River Valley, an epidemic of what was commonly called "milk sick" broke out and in October it claimed Abraham Lincoln's mother, Nancy Hanks Lincoln. At the time, the illness was attributed to many things, but only a few suspected the real culprit. It wasn't until the early 1900s that it was determined that milk from cows that had eaten snakeroot caused the illness. By then it had claimed many other victims, the majority of them infants. In literature, a young Mary Shelley's most famous book-- Frankenstein--was published. 1818 also marked the first time the Christmas hymn Silent Night was sung in the small Austrian village of Oberndorf. | ERSKINE, David (I1437)

17207 | Note 1./ : e-mail from Jim Johnson 12-10-2003: St. Luke's Hospital, New York, & Grandma's Aunt Lillie: While on breaks at Roosevelt Hospital I have been admiring old photos of St. Luke's and Roosevelt Hospitals, of Women's Hospital (where modern gynecology was founded), of the nurses wearing corsets, bustles and hats, and scratching my head. I got the lawyers to start talking about it yesterday because I was wondering aloud if these photos aren't of where my Grandma Buffum's Aunt Lillie had come to nursing school. Oh, yes, Mr. Engel said, they had a very important nursing school and still do, and there's an archivist named such-and-such who has all kinds of great materials, like photos and letters and documents going all the way back. I didn't get a chance to add that my relative who was in nursing school there had contracted polio and died back in Ontario in her 20s. But the photos were great, nonetheless. The hospital rooms were heated by fireplaces. The place looked pretty nice. There is a haunting photo on the wall of one hallway taken looking down a long hallway of pre-war doorjambs with the windows up at the top and the ornate carpentry that's so impossible to keep clean. I just did a search on my computer through Bob M's email to be sure I got my facts straight. In fact, it was St. Luke's Hospital that Millie Jacobs (Grandma Buffum's aunt) was training in when she got sick in the early 1900s: Jan. 28, 2002, by Bob M: "Liliy was training for the nursing profession at St. Lukes hospital in New York City. She contracted polio however and returned home to London where she died in 1903 at age 26. In 1908 Mary L was a Nurse in Philadelphia, which at the time was considered the fashion and social capital of North America." | JACOBS, Lilly (I77)

17209 | Note 1./ Appears in the early records (and in Civil war records) as William B. Horn(e). Is in the 1870 census as Buck Horne and in the 1880 - and family records - as Washington Horne. His grandson was named Buchanon, so speculation from that and from the nickname Buck, is that this was also Wm's middle name. Note 2./ Notes for WASHINGTON WILLIAM BUCHANAN HORNE: Served in company F, 57th GA Infantry (Crawford Rifles) throughout the civil war. According to his army records, was paroled after Vicksburg. Lost an arm in the war. Eventually died at the State Hospital at Milledgeville Casenotes no longer in existance, but was admitted in Nov 1879, died there (diarrhea) in 1884. However, according to the census he was at home in June 1880, so he may have been in and out | HORNE, CSA Washington William Buchanan (I2155)

17213 | NOTE 1./ E-mail from 9-19-2002, from Kevin Church: At long last I have now been for my first visit to the London Metropolitan Archives and had a look through the parish records for New Brentford ! I spend three hours trawling through microfilms, with the following conclusions ! 1/ Confirmed Robert's baptism as Jan 19, 1800 and have a copy of that records 2/ Confirmed his elder sister, Caroline as baptised in New Brentford on Nov 2, 1797 3/ I could not locate, James (b1795), however I already have him as baptised in Hanwell. Where did we get his birth date of New Brentford in 1795 from ? 4/ Marriage Banns for John Lizmore and Mary Ann Beamon both of New Brentford Parish in 1859. 5/ Other Lizmores that I cannot attach: James 19.3.1816, Elizabeth 25.7.1824, Mary Anne 20.7.1828 - I found these on transcipts which did not provide details of the parents - 6/ I also found the following that we were already aware of James 26.05.1822, Charles 18.12.1825 and John 24.06.1832 7/ Apart from those I found no other Liz(s)mores in the following documents for New Brentford Baptisms (1750 - 1837) Burials (1760 - 1805) and (1813 - 1843) Marriages (1618 - 1837) 8/ I also located some Boxall's - George 11.12.1803, William 18.08.02, Mary Ann 05.08.1798 all children of William and Mary Boxall. In conclusion, it appears that Lizmore's were not around New Brentford much before 1797, I suspect that had previously been in Hanwell (the next parish). So the next visit will be to have alook at the parish records for Hanwell. Also as my family history studies continue I now understand other records that may be beneficial to us - there may be a Settlement certificate covering their movement between parishes, I also want to find records from the poor house that Robert and Elizabeth died in.

BENJAMIN HEWITT was indicted for stealing, on the 26th of May, one watch, value 15 s., 14 shillings, and four sixpences, the property of Robert Lowick , from his person . JOHN LIZMORE . On the 26th of May, about nine o'clock in the morning, I was at the King's Head, public-house, Orchard-street, Westminster, and saw Lowick come in with the prisoner; he was in liquor. He called for a pint of beer, and drank to the prisoner, and asked him to lend him a shilling, saying that he had no money; he lent him one. Then the prisoner said, "Let us have six-penny worth of rum and water." Lowick was going to sleep - the prisoner held the rum and water to his mouth, and put some into his mouth, and the rest ran down his bosom, but he fell asleep directly. I then saw the prisoner put his right hand into Lowick's right-hand pocket, and turn all his money out, and put it on the table; he was going to count it, but seeing me look at him, he put it all into his own right-hand pocket, and kept asking Lowick to drink more; but he was so stupified, he could not answer him. I then saw him take his watch; he was going to put it in his own pocket, but I said, "Stop, that is not yours - you have robbed the man of his money before." I called the landlord, and wanted him to give the landlord the money and watch to keep for the prosecutor; he said I was a liar, and struck at me two or three times; he gave the watch to the landlord, but denied having the money. I sent for an officer. Betts came, and asked him what money he had in his pocket when he came from home; he said 7 s. or 7 s. 6 d., not more; and if he had more, it was not his. Betts found in his right-hand breeches pocket 14 s., four sixpences, and one penny. He said nothing; he was rather tipsy, but knew what he was about. ROBERT LOWICK . I did not know the prisoner before; I saw a man at the public-house door - I cannot say it was him. I said, "Old gentleman, will you take a draught of porter." I was drunk, and did not know what happened; I had been in liquor the night before - I believe I was more drowsy for want of sleep than drunk - I knew nothing about what happened to me. When I was told of it, I found I had lost 16 s. or 18 s. and my watch. Prisoner. Q. You said, if I would take care of your money and watch, you would be glad - A. I recollect nothing of the kind. HENRY BETTS . I took the prisoner to the watch-house. I asked what money he had; he said, 7 s. or 7 s. 6 d. I found 14 s. and four sixpences on him; he said, if he had more than 7 s. 6 d., he did not know how it came there. He had been drinking, but was quite sensible; he said nothing of its being given him to take care of; the landlord gave me the watch. (Property produced and sworn to.) THOMAS DEBENHALL . I saw the prosecutor about twenty minutes before seven o'clock that morning; he had been drinking, but knew what he was doing. GUILTY . Aged 36. Confined One Year , and Publicly Whipped . Second Middlesex Jury, before Mr. Justice Burrough. | LIZMORE, John L. (I342)

17215 | NOTE 1./ e-mail from Donna Fratesi 5-29-03 I went through some old clippings and came across a letter that had been in Wilfred Lizmores things that his daughter gave me (which wasn't much). The letter is from Velma.... I'm trying to remember how she fits in but I know she's a Lizmore, perhaps from London.In it she talks about the John William Johnson (grampa) and said she did know they were Pennsylvania Dutch and he drove a mail coach around St. Thomas and Brantford and later always worked in livery stables or something to do with horses. She said he had a limp. I don't have any Johnsons that I know of. They could have been related to another side of the family. The letter is addressed to "Buster and Marg. Marg was Wilfred's second wife. I knew that one of the Lizmore boys was nicknamed Buster and now I know who it was. Never paid much attention to thiis letter because I didn't know any of the names. Maybe you do. She also says "also with Mom, I can't give you any dates but I do know that she and Dad were married in Niagara Falls, April 10, 1909. They crossed over the border in Detroit 9/30/21. James Lizmore's wife's name was Velma so perhaps the letter writer is a daughter of Ida May one of James children. This is so complicated.

17216 | NOTE 1./ e-mail from Donna Fratesi on 10-3-2003: While I was in London, I went to the London Metropolitan Archives to try and find a baptism or something for my grandfather Charles David. I found nothing as I found nothing at the Family Record Centre in their BMD. He was born in England when his father went over to retire from the service and then I guess they stayed for a couple of years.

17218 | NOTE 1./ e-mail from Jim Johnson 1-25-02 My grandmother Isabel Thompson and her two older sisters, Beth and Alice, got into a car in London and drove across Canada to the West. They did jobs along the way as stenographers or whatever for money. Alice also settled in the West of Canada, although I guess she was married in Sweden. Her husband was from Sweden and they had no children. The story has always been that they made and lost several fortunes. She was the family historian. She was your grandmother's cousin. I met her a few times. NOTE 2./ e-mail from: Mike Leipe: bihun.leipe@sympatico.ca 9/27/2005 It was a copy of Alice's document that led me to Bond Head, Ontario, where stands the tombstone of the original Thomas Thompson and his wife. Interestingly, I doubt if this stone is more than 40 or 50 years old - I figure Alice probably had the old one replaced. I've got a photo somewhere... I actually remember visiting Alice at her home along the highway in Williams Lake, BC, as a small child. What I remember best is her empty swimming pool! As you may be aware, Alice & Paul were great travelers. Turns out they took a ton of pictures and copious notes of their travels. I have these photos and notes - probably a dozen of those Kodak carousels of black & white slides! | THOMPSON, Alice Georgina (I3945)

Her parents were James Harrison Moree and Leanna Melton Moree. Both of my Great Grand Parents were born in Twiggs County, Georgia. The Andrew Moree that you speak of from the Georgia Gray Books was the brother of James Harrison Moree. They had another brother named Henry Moree who was also with the 59th Ga. and he was killed on 13 July 1862 in Virginia. Green B. Moree was also killed in Virginia during the War; however, I'm not certain if he was a brother All four of my Great Grand Dads fought for that Noble Cause of Southern Independence. Many uncles and cousins, as you know, sacrificed all they had for freedom, against a tyrannical, centralized federal government. Nobler ashes than theirs will never be sheltered by the sod of any land. They give me great Southern pride and it is your family also. Please forgive me if I sound facetious; however, Sir, you have adopted and married into a family with priceless Southern Heritage. When James Harrison returned home in 1865, he and my Great Grandmother had another child and they named him Henry. My Moree Great Grandparents are buried at Salem Church in Worth County on Jewell Crowe Road, named after Garland's dad and my uncle Judge Jewell Crowe. My Grand Children are 7th generation Worth Countians. Also, you said you have a restaurant in Cordele. My 4th Great Grand Dad was Benjamin Stewart Hamilton, Revolutionary Soldier. His plantation took in the city limits of what is now Cordele, Georgia. Wow! What a wonderful Novel you sent to me concerning my family history. You already have a wealth of information and I truly appreciate your sharing it with my wife Ginger and myself. Ginger and I are both retired and have much time to research. We both enjoy our family genealogy very much. Please stay in contact, as I am, your obedient Confederate servant, Ray | MOREE, Rosabella (I1060)

17222 | NOTE 1./ EARLY GERMAN SETTLERS OF SOUTH CAROLINA compiled by Siegbert Frick & Carl W. Nichols < Between the years 1730 and 1766 the Colonial government of South Carolina actively encouraged immigration of foreign Protestants to the Province. Appreciable numbers of immigrants from Germany began to arrive in the 1740s. The year 1752 represented the peak of the migration with an estimated 1800 German settlers who arrived on several ships in the fall of that year. Saxe-Gotha, Amelia, Salkehatchie, and the fork of the Broad and Saluda (Dutch Fork) became largely German settlements. The Dutch Fork was the most densely settled, becoming home to 483 settler families by 1760, almost all of whom were of German origin (E. B. Hallman, “Early Settlers in the Carolina Dutch Fork 1744-1760”, Master’s Thesis, Wofford College). It has been estimated that by the year 1765 there were 7500-8000 Germans and German-Swiss who had come to the province of South Carolina (R. L. Meriwether, Expansion of South Carolina, 1730-1765”). NOTE 2./ Hans Suber Family < The Suber family of the S.C. Dutch Fork was founded by Hans Michael Zuber who arrived in S.C. about 1752. German Church records of the family are found in Werner Hacker's "Kurpfaelzische Auswanderer vom Unteren Neckar in 18. Jahrhundert." Hans Michael Zuber, b. 1710, Baiertal, Germany, m. (1) 26 Aug 1738, Anna Marie Wittman, b. 1712, d. Feb 1748, Leimen, Germany; m. (2) Ester Margretha Hermann, b. 1717, Leimen, Germany, and after arrival in S.C., m. (3) Elizabeth Miller. John Michael SUBER was born in 1710 in Baiertal, Germany. He died after 1772 in Newberry County, South Carolina. John Michael Suber (also written Saeber, Schover, Souber, Zuber) arrived at Charlestown, SC on board the ship CUNLIF in September 1752 with some 500 other German passengers. With him were three of his children: Elizabeth, 10; Hans Bjorg (listed as Hans Erick in Council Journal immigration record), 9; and Conrad, 3. John Michael made petition for a land grant to the Council at Charlestown for 200 acres (50 acres per family member). Elizabeth Miller (also written Millerin -- the "in" denoting female), also a passenger on the CUNLIF with her son Hans Michael, 5, made petition for a 100 acre grant adjacent to John Michael's. Colonial plats describe the land as lying in the fork between Broad River and Saludy (Saluda) River on Second Creek. John Michael Suber and third wife Elizabeth Millerin lived in the Broad River section between Second Creek and Heller's Creek. He was granted two other tracts of land, one of 250 acres (1769) and another 150 acres (1772). Hans Michael Zuber was granted a 200 acre tract on Heller's Cr. adjacent the 100 acre tract of Elizabeth Millerin. Plats for these two tracts were certified on the same day, 18 June 1753. Hans Michael and Elizabeth Miller Suber are believed to be buried in Suber Cemetery #4 located on the 100 acre survey of 1753 to Elizabeth Millerin.

17225 | NOTE 1./ from James Ham & Family at< Moses Mathews was a gunsmith and maker of fine guns. From: "A Genealogical History of the Mathews Family from a Remote Period to the Present Time" as compiled by Dr. James C. Mathews (now deceased), Greenville, Georgia. "Moses Mathews was born in Virginia in 1725. In 1753/54 he married Sarah Finley. Their first child James was born in Virginia in 1755. He moved his wife and firstborn to Winfield County, South Carolina and settled on the Broad River near Winsboro. In 1760/61 he bought a tract of land where he later built a gun shop where he could repair and manufacture guns. During the Revolutionary War his shop became a Government shop for the Colonial Government. He made and repaired guns for General Sumpter's command. Just before the end of the war his home was raided by the Tories. His stock of horses was stolen and his home, gun shop, his shop books, accounts, and family records were burned. He may not have been fully paid for his services and for materials furnished during the war. There is an account against the Government for $18,000.00 which was never fully paid. The only payment he ever received was a land grant of several hundred acres in then Wilkes County, (now Lincoln County) Georgia. In 1784 he was granted 270 acres on Lloyd's Creek. He built a home here with his family where he conducted a large farming interest until his death in 1806. He was one of the wealthiest men in Georgia in his day. He and his wife, along with other family members, are buried in a churchyard near his home. From "Roster of Revolutionary Soldiers in Georgia" compiled by Mrs. Howard H. McCall, published by the Georgia Society Daughters of the American Revolution, 1968: "Moses Mathews, b. Halifax Co., Va., 1725; d. Wilkes Co., Ga.1806. Was a Rev. Sol.; served as a gunsmith in Gen.

The dedication was again given by Mrs. Annie Lorrie Stutts, DAR state historian. Mrs. Ham was both a daughter and a granddaughter of Revolutionary War soldiers. Her father, Philip Mathews, was a militiaman in General Marion's Brigade. Her grandfather, Moses Mathews, was a gunsmith in Gen. Sumter's Brigade. Her great grandfather was Gov.

Member, House of Burgesses, 1623. Councellor, 1648. Governor, 1657-1659. Coat of Arms: in file. Samuel MATHEWS, Jr, Governor of Virginia, was born in Virginia about 1630 to Samuel MATHEWS and Frances GREVILLE. He attained the military rank of Lieutenant Colonel by 1652 and was appointed to the Council in 1655, a position he held until 1657. He was married and had one child: 1. John, died before 1 May 1706, VA; married Elizabeth TAVERNOR, 24 Mar 1684 It is believed that his wife was of the Cole-Digges family. He attained the military rank of Lieutenant Colonel by 1652 and was appointed to the Council in 1655, a position he held until 1657. He was elected to succeed Edward Digges as Governor of Virginia in December 1656, but did not assume office until early 1657. Mathews' tenure as governor was marked by periodic clashes between the young chief executive and the Virginia House of Burgesses. When in 1658 Mathews and his Council attempted to dissolve the Assembly, the Burgesses, claiming that the governor did not possess that authority, decided to ignore the dissolution order. Mathews and the Council were unable to resist this show of strength, and they eventually yielded when the Assembly called for a new election. Despite his attempt to test the Assembly's power. Mathews was re-elected, probably because he indicated his willingness to co-operate with the effort of the Lower house to seek "confirmation of their present priviledges." Shortly before Mathews' death in January 1660, however, Richard Cromwell resigned as Lord Protector of England, a development which cast into confusion the political status of the Assembly in particular and the colony of Virginia in general. "Virginia Biography" Governor of Virginia from March 13, 1658, to his death in January 1660. Born in England about 1600 and came to Virginia in 1618. Historians and genealogists who have attempted to identify Governor Samuel Mathews of Virginia, who died in office in January, 1659/60, have assumed that his induction on March 13, 1657/8 was the beginning of his services as Governor, and, because of the youth of Lieutenant Colonel (afterwards Colonel) Samuel Mathews, Junior, it has been assumed, wrongly, that the Governor was Captain Samuel Mathews, Senior. The young Samuel Mathews, Jr., could not have been over 25 or 26 years of age when be became Governor. This would seem incredible did we not know something of the circumstances surrounding the man. Samuel Mathews Junior was a Lieutenant Colonel and a Burgiss from Warwick County in 1652. In 1655 he was elevated to the Council, and as we have seen, to the chair of Governor in 1657. I have 10 pages of research to substantiate this. Residence was at "Denbigh," on Deep Creek, Warwick County, where he had a fine house and employed many servants. Mathews seat was not always called Denbigh because on 13 Nov., 1626, the Court ordered William Ramshaw to go "down to Mathewes-Manor and work at the trade of a blacksmythe." "proved back in the forties by Minnie Cook that the Governor was Samuel Mathews II. It was reproved by John Frederick Dorman in the 70's or 80's by following the Mathews deeds. There is a deed in King George's Co,. VA that lays out the entire history of the land." First Governor of Virginia to be elected by the House of Burgess, during Cromwell's Protectorate.

17234 | NOTE 1./ Observation by Bob Millie: I am a little suspect of the Pulaski 1840 census. If all is correct on this document, then the last 2 children to Elijah Singletary and Topsy Lindsey, children William Henry Singletary, CSA b. 1842, and John H. Singletary, CSA b.1846, would never have been born. (That is to say that if Topsey was a widow and the head of the household in Pulaski in 1840.) These are Topsey/Topa/Toppan nee Lindsey Singletarys children, because they show up in the 1850 census with her as head of the household. The other interesting image on the Pulaski 1840 census w/o Elijah enumerated, is that there seems to have been an erasure for the column indicating a male was present between the ages of 40-50 years. All other references in the 1840 Pulaski census seem to match the details expanded on in the 1850 census.

My grandfather Fred owned a gravel quarry in London, Ont. in the 1930s where he made cement blocks, which he then used to build houses. I understand that he had quite a profitable business but lost most of his savings when a local bank went bust during the Depression. He and my father built in partnership a number of homes in London, Ont. in the late 1940s/early 1950s, one of which became our family home. Grandfather Fred, or "Pop" Lizmore as he was known to everyone, died in a cement block cottage that he himself had built at Boat Lake, near Wiarton, Ont. There are only three things that I remember about Uncle Ab: a) he was tall and looked an awful lot like my grandfather "Pop"; b) he wasn't married at the time I met him (was he ever married?) and c) he was working at the township garbage dump in Byron, Ont. as a kind of a supervisor. He had a little wooden hut at the site with a stove and he locked the gates to the site at night. It gave him the opportunity to sort through the garbage and pull out things of value, like electrical cables with copper wire cores, which could be resold for recycling. He was the original recycler !

17239 | NOTE 1./ Singletary Family Genealogy Forum @ genealogy.com posted by V. Allen Singletary < I have information on descendants of Thomas W. Singletary and the ancestors of his daughter, Martha Sincletary. Martha was born 30 Sep 1814, Telfair Co., GA, married 1840, Phillip Walker, born 1814, NC, died 1893, Martha died 17 Mar 1869, Schley Co., GA. Her father and mother were Thomas W. Singletary and Anna Barrow. Thomas W. Singletary, born (1770-75), Camden, Sumter Co., SC, married ca. 1800, in Sumter Co., SC, Anna Barrow, born 1777, NC, (daughter of Taylor Barrow and Mary Purvis). Thomas died 1842, Telfair, Pulaski Co., GA, and Martha died 30 Jul 1858, Schley Co., GA. Thomas W. Singletary and Anna Barrow had the following known children: Thomas W., Arthur, William, Elijah, Nathan J., Martha, Sarah "Sally", Ziba B., and James T. Singletary. Details are in the genealogy report files. The 1820 Census showed Thomas and Anna with 7 boys and 3 girls. ((Males: 2 age 0-10; 2 age 10-16; 3 age 16-26; 1 age 45+. Females: 3 age 0-10; 1 age 16-26.

In its first nationwide election, the popular Revolutionary War general, George Washington, became the country's first president and was sworn in at the first capitol of the United States, Federal Hall in New York City. In France, a rebellion was underway and with the storming of the Bastille prison, the French Revolution began. In its reporting on the subject, The Times of London, England had the following to say of the conflict: The spirit of liberty which so long lay in a state of death, oppressed by the hand of power, received its first spark of returning animation, by the incautious and impolitic assistance afforded to America. The French soldier on his return from that emancipated continent, told a glorious tale to his countrymen--"That the arms of France had given freedome to thirteen United States, and planted the standard of liberty on the battlements of New York and Philadelphia." The idea of such a noble deed became a general object of admiration, the [facets?] of a similar state were eagerly longed for by all ranks of people, and the vox populi had this force of argument--"If France gave freedom to America, why should she not unchain the arbitrary fetters which bind her own people. Later that year, the Marquis de Lafayette, with the advice of Thomas Jefferson who was at the time the American ambassador to France, drafted the Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen. It was adopted by France's National Assembly in August and ratified by Louis XVI in October. There was unrest in other parts of the world as well. Sweden and Russia were at war, and briefly, Norway had joined the conflict, although a peace treaty was signed in July 1789. In a smaller, but well-known conflict, the mutiny on the H.M.S. Bounty was also in the year 1789. On April 28, part of the crew of the Bounty, led by Fletcher Christian, mutinied and set Captain William Bligh and eighteen crewmembers adrift. Bligh managed to get the boat some 3,600 miles to Timor. Some of the mutineers were captured and prosecuted--three were hanged, while others, including Fletcher Christian ended up on Pitcairn Island, where some of their descendants live to this day. In 1789, there was an epidemic of influenza in New England, New York, and Nova Scotia, which resulted in many deaths due to secondary cases of pneumonia. The new president was among those who fell ill. He caught a cold while visiting Boston, and later, was affected more seriously with influenza, which was dubbed Washington Influenza. | SINGLETARY, Thomas W. (I6418)

17241 | NOTE 1./ The 1930 census was taken in the 1121 Military District of Worth County on 4-11-1930. One of the questions on the 1930 census inquires as to whether the individual was at work yesterday ? (or the last working day) Aarons response was NO. The next question on the census inquires as to " the line # for unemployment ", to which Aaron 's response is 16. This seems to indicate that Aaron may have been sick, at the time of census, since he was living and working? on his fathers farm as a laborer. He was dead by June 2, 1930, about 50 days later. | HOUSTON, Aaron Nichol (I1070)

17243 | NOTE 1./ While James was serving his indenture in Bertie Co, his older brother John, had received a land grant in Duplin Co NC and had settled there. There is some indication that John went back to Bertie Co and bought James out of his indenture and took him to Duplin Co. In any case, James Sr did end up in Duplin/Sampson Co where he married Sara Hester of Bladen Co in the late 1750's. Sara was the daughter of Thomas Hester Sr of Bladen Co who was the ancestor of most of the Hesters in Bladen and Robeson Counties. Around 1770 James received a land grant for several hundred acres in southwestern Bladen Co in the Dublin/Bladenboro area and near the area that became Robeson County. During the next thirty to forty years he became a successful planter with a number of slaves and many hundreds of acres of land. James' wife, Sarah, died just before 1820. Around that time, James Sr's daughter, Sarah, and her husband, William Bryan Jr, moved to Georgia to homestead some of the free land available and around 1825 James Sr and some of his children took off to join their kin in Georgia. That left two of his sons, James Jr and William in Bladen Co. By about 1832, William had moved to Georgia as well. James Jr remained in Bladen Co where he was doing well as a planter on a large acreage in the Bladenboro-Dublin area. James Sr and his sons, Jasper Evers and William Evers, as well as daughters, Rebecca Evers, Sarah Evers, and Elinor Evers, and their growing famililes were all living in Monroe County, Georgia, newar Macon. James Jr, the only one of his children still in Bladen Co, apparently owed James Sr money for land he had purchased. James Sr sent son William back to try to collect the debt, He later signed power of attorney to Durram Lewis, who made the long trip back to Bladen Co to collect the debet from James Jr. There is no indication the debt was ever paid. James Sr died in Monroe Co Ga on June 15, 1837. He was 96. The estate papers show that James Jr of Bladen Co received a slave valued at $700 and $352.39 in cash | EVERS, JamesSr (I5868)

Also looks like she has not met or married McConner yet (by 1880) Note 3: The 1880 Worth census shows this McConner family Census Place: District 1121, Worth, Georgia Source: FHL Film 1254172 National Archives Film T9-0172 Page 509C Relation Sex Marr Race Age Birthplace Ritchard MCCONNER Self M M W 44 GA Occ: Farm Laborer Fa: (GA) Mo: (GA) Lydia MCCONNER Wife F M W 40 GA Occ: Keeping House Fa: GA Mo: GA Isaac MCCONNER Son M S W 19 GA Occ: Farm Laborer Fa: GA Mo: GA John MCCONNER Son M S W 16 GA Occ: Farm Laborer Fa: GA Mo: GA Green MCCONNER Son M S W 13 GA Occ: Farm Laborer Fa: GA Mo: GA William MCCONNER Son M S W 2 GA Fa: GA Mo: GA Note4: E-mail from Joann Gorday 9-28-02: The 1880 census lists Sarah E. Moore as the head of household, so apparently she has not married Mr. McConnor yet. Drucella B. is listed as her 4 year old daughter, and yes her birthdate would be 1876, which is 9 years after Andrew's death and before Elizabeth began using the McConnor name. So who is Addie's father? I don't think it the McConnor. | BROWN, Sarah Elizabeth (I18)
