OBVIOUS HARD WORK HAS GONE INTO ITS CREATION>
WE ARE ...searching ....for a deceased lady's family
her name was OPAL WRIGHT.........
she died at the age of 68 of small cell carcinoma lung disease.
we believe she was 20 years old in 1948 and that she had been
unmarried that her maiden name was Wright and she
was a waitress.she was staying in San Angelo,Tx Tom Green County and
welfare TOOK her baby illegaly.
she fought to keep her daughter she named MERYO Wright
baby was put up for adoption afer being in the care of TOM GREEN
COUNTY nurse BONNIE BOTTS.
ADOPTION was illegaly handled by Tom Green County District attorney
Ralph logan and his old law partner who JUST HAPPENED to be JUDGE
presiding over this adoption.
OPAL WRIGHT according to court papers was intimidated/scared and was
forced to sign away her rights to her baby girl.
that baby was adopted by AMIE LENA JOHNSON FOWLER
and HOLLIS CLIFTON FOWLER at 6 months old/adoptive parents was a
school teacher/farmer from adjoining counrty to Tom Green Cnty.

It is late at night, (for me) and my contacts are killing me.
That's my excuse, other than stupidity, for not being able to find
your email address. I am 50 years old and have had chronic pain from
TMJ for 10 yrs. My best medicine is gardening, but due to an
unusually cold autumn,
I have started on my husband's genealogy line. I must put Dutoy
Roper to rest before I can start on the Shouse line.
My husband, Gary, recently had a 25 marker DNA test. I must tell you
how proud I am of my son, John Nathan Roper, who was deafened by
meningitis at 16 months of age. He is
in his 2nd yr at Rochester Institute of Technology and is on the
Dean's list. We live in Southaven, MS,just south of Memphis, TN.
Nathan reports an enormous snow in Rochester, NY. However, they have
underground tunnels so they can go from building to building. Thanks
for allowing me to "breathe." Lucy

I am the grandaughter of Edith Showers, daughter of Charles Henry

married to an O.J. Stockard but I know this is incorrect. She
Married my grandfather, David Joseph Saunders Stockard. They had 4
children, David Joseph Stockard, Lester Morton Stockard, Edith
Elizabeth Stockard and my dad, Charles Cohron Stockard. Edith
Stockard Roosa is the only child living and is 84 yrs old. She
resides in Clearwater FL. My great Uncle Everett J Showers passed
away about 2 years ago leaving his surviving wife, Bessie. My Aunt
Edith has letters from him and I'm certain I can put my hands on
them. He was a long time resident of Mobile, AL.

Your website is the best genealogy website I have ever seen! It
is easily maneuverable and very well documented and I enjoyed it
very much. I was looking for John Wilson, born in TN abt 1804-5,
father of William Wilson, born in AL in April 1848. William was my
great great grandfather. I scanned the Robert Wilson line but I
didn't see a John born in TN in 1804-5, but I bet we are related
somehow. I will let you know if and when I find that we are.
Take care

to Wexford in Ireland.
My greatgrand fathers brothers all worked in new York and I am

Martha Fortune / Fitzpatrick.
Looking forward to hearing from you.

I'm not really sure I have ancesters in your site. I began by
looking for Beech's. It is my understanding that I was named after a
relative named Vernetia Lee(surname). But have been unable to locate
any so stumbled on Venecia Mitchell. It is certainly the right area:
Picayune Ms. is where my father's family was. His name was Neville
Eugene Beech and he had a brother named Luther Morgan Beech (named
after some Morgans, I think). Please feel free to contact me if you
have any information. I know virtually nothing about this side of my
family - not even my Grandmother's maiden name or my Grandfather's
given name. Shameful isn't it?

1952 to 1954. My grandmother doesn't recall the exact dates or for
certain if this is the name of the lodge. Any information about this

Joseph and Nancy are the parents of Adry Hicks. Adry and wife

TN census. I do not know how they are related to ADREY Hicks of 1790
Fayette , Richmond county, North Carolina census.
Your website is wonderful. I found it by looking for other Hicks
Head of Household listed in same county 1790: Charles, Howell,
Robert, Thomas... hoping to find something to connect anyone.
Unfortunately, your Howell Hicks is too young, plus I don't even
know if Adrey is related...
Please email me if Adry/Adrey Hicks rings any bells!

Do you have any info on the parents of Mary Brown Weeks? She was
b. 8 Apr 1840 in MD; d. 1927 in TX; m. Benjamin Clark Melton, 22 Sep
1853 in MO.
This is the info I have so far:
- When Mary was an infant, her family left her with (unknown)
relatives in Indiana, while the family went down a river and were
killed.
- In 1850 there were two families of Browns living in Jefferson Co.
near Allen Melton, father of Benjamin Melton, and it is possible
they are related since Mary carries the middle name of Brown.
- In 1860 there was a Sariah Weeks living with Benjamin and Mary
Melton. Related to Mary?
- Family history says Mary’s parents were William Dewland and Anna
Myra Wilson, but I have no supporting evidence of this.
- Anna Myra Wilson had a previous marriage, to a McCall, and had two
children by him: James and Alice.

married to my great grandfather, William Joseph Winsett. One of her
sisters also married a Winsett. I have found a link that says she
was married to someone named Hunnicut. but this is not correct. My
grandmother never mentioned anyone named Hunicutt.

This is my family lines- I'm sure of it now. My line comes
through Emaline (Emiline/ Emma) Taunton. I believe she was the
daughter of Asa (Azor) and Louisiana Wealthie Hawthorn.
You show them with a daughter names Emily, the conveyance records
show a E.A. Taunton, I found records that Wealthie remarried a R.H.
Dosher in 1889. When Emiline's daughter, Leanna, died in 1940, the
funeral was attended by her relatives with the last name Dosher.
Leanna was born in 1883 and married John Alexander Wilks, born 1884.
They lived in Catahoula and LaSalle Parishes in Louisiana.
I have pictures of Leanna in case your interested.
I know throughout our family lines, there is Indian heritage. My
grandmother told me that Emiline Taunton was part Choctow, do you
have the same info or documented cases of Indian Heritages in the
family.
Please keep me on your mailing lists. I'm only doing this for my
children- I'm not one looking for publishing, ect.
Just want to know where I came from.
Emiline was my g.g.grandmother.

years old. Christoph moved to the Kendall, Blanco and Comal County
areas about 1868. He married a Maria Muenzler in 1868 and after her
death married my great grandmother Lucinda Taylor about 1876.
Christoph, Lucinda and my grandfather James along with his siblings
moved to San Antonio about 1896. Christoph's children with Maria
included Anna(Brink) and William Hasdorff. His children with Lucinda
included Louise(Wieland), Christina, Roxie(Yeager), James(my

From Jan Thompson Foreman (tx5250@aol.com)
Hello. Thanks again for your terrific website. It has really
inspired me to keep working down lines! I'm working on family
history and came across your Ancestry.com sites. My children are in
the Ottie Z Foreman line. However, your site omits their
grandfather, Lonnie Z Foreman,Sr., who passed away the early 60's in
an Air Force plane crash in White Horse, Canada. Their dad is Lonnie
Z Foreman, Jr. So,
if you'll look at the two sites below, you'll have some additional
info if you want to update your family history info. The first url
is the website
for veterans of Runnels County, TX. Lonnie Z Foreman, Sr and Bobby
Wayne Foreman are listed. There is one correction to that also. Son
Daniel Wayne Foreman should be corrected to David Wayne Foreman.
Also, Rutland is the last name of Aunt Imogene, not Ruthland.
The second url is a list of family to the Kolb line. The Ottie Z
Foreman line is listed with children and grandchildren.

I am working on my Melton line from Izard and Barry Co, Mo
I have Isobelle(Elizabeth) Melton b. 1818 TN raised by a
step-father, foster father? I believe to be James Melton & Permillia
Sooter. We may never locate her parents, believed to be Meltons,
that died early? Her daughter Jane Martin married a John Melton and
they resided in Rollo, Mo and other places in Mo and AR.

Laban Ferrell B. 7/11/1814 was my great great grandfather. He
married Ailey Meekins Barlow B. 7/8/1820 on 5/21/1840 in NC-Nash
County. My great grandfather was James Medicus Ferrell B. 9/4/1857.
He married Crecia Ann Wiggs B. 7/4/1858. One of their daughters was
my grandmother Eula Clara Ferrell B. 10/29/1891 in Leesville, NC.
She married my grandfather, Eunice Wesley House on10/27/1917. I
can't find the parents of Ailey Meekins Barlow. Many of the
Ferrell's and their decendants including my Dad had dark
complexions. Their is a Billy Barlow who was an Ute Indian in
Oklahoma-Another source lists him as from the Choctaw(?) tribe.
Could this be Ailey Meekins Barlow's father?? and the Indian
connection??? I need to know asap for a family reunion. If you have
any information, please e-mail me!!!

What a fantastic site! I can't believe that in 2 years of surfing
the web for information on my Melton line I never found this
treasure trove before now. Thanks to you I have completed my 5
generation chart with the name of my gg grandmother Adalisa Dorethy,
wife of Leonard Melton, b. 1836 in IL. I also now have the names of
my g grandmother Susan Melton's siblings. The only one I knew before
was her brother Robert.
I am very happy to be able to fill in a few of your "unknowns".
Susan Melton b. 1868 in Lewistown, IL married John Henry Clayberg in
Fulton County, IL 02/04/1886 (IL Statewide Marriage Index
1763-1900). He died in 1910 and is buried in Section E, Cuba
Cemetery, Cuba, IL (Cuba Cemetery Records). Their children were:
* Ray Clayberg, b. 1/28/1887; d. 11/09/1961
* Inez Clayberg (my grandmother) b. 06-14-1889; d. 02/02/1960.
* Lennie b. 6-14-1893; d. 10-05-1929
Harold b. 1-15-1904; d. 11-03-1979
Alva b. unknown; d. date unknown, Rockford, IL
Essie b. unknown; d. unknown (probably lived most of her life in
Canton area).
*Hazel b. 04/22/1896, Bryant, IL; d. 08-25-1922, Dunfermline, IL
* Ruby b. 12/07/1906; d. 08-27-1926
* buried in Greenwood Cemetery, Canton, IL
I have further information - marriages, funeral home records and
cemetery records if anyone is interested.
Susan Melton's second marriage was to Frank Tompkins 8-16-1913 in
Peoria, IL. She died in 1938 and is buried as Susan Clayberg, Lot
393, 1872 Addition, Sec. E. Cuba Cemetery, Cuba, IL
I have a photograph of her in my possession and photos of some of
her children Inez, Hazel, Alva, and Essie
Susan's brother Robert I. Melton was born 12-14-1863 near Macomb,
IL. He married Laura Grace Ellis, 1898, Canton, IL. He died
05-31-1930 and is buried in Greenwood Cemetery, Canton, IL. His
father is listed as Leonard Melton, b. MO. Two children and 2
stepchildren are listed by name. All of this information is from
funeral home records (Murphy Sedgwick vol. 3, Canton, IL)
Using infomation from your website, I was able to find this infrom
from IL Statewide Marriage Index 1763-1900:
Ida I. Melton m. Charles W. Kitchel, Fulton Co., IL 09/15/1886
Minnie Melton m. Ennett Tompkins, Fulton Co., IL 02/03/1891.

My grandfather on my mother's side (Gladys Melton, b. 22 Dec,
1901, d 11 Dec. 1968) were Ephrian?Ethan (E.B.)Melton, bJan. 1859 in
Al and Carrie Jane Doster b 3 Mar 1867, Columbus, Ga d 16 May, 1960,
Shreveport, La. They were married 11 May, 1884 in Elmore Co. Al.
They had 15 children, eventually moving to Arcadia, La. On some
websites they have my grandmother, Carrie Jane Doster, listed as
being married to Henry Dallas Melton, and list the same children. I
don't know who this is but he was not my grandfather. I have been
told but cannot prove that my great grandparents were William David
Doster b Feb. 1841 in Georgia, d 21 Mar, 1922 Elmore Co. Al, and
Margaret Wallace b May, 1839 in Georgia ; d 9 Aug, 1914 Elmore Co.
Al. I cannot find either of my great grandparents listed on any
website. If you have any information that would help me I would
appreciate this. I have only been researching about 2 months and am
really not sure what I am doing yet. Thank you, Linda Heath

My oldest documented ancestor is not why I am here. I was sent to
you by Ron Johnson as I found Samuel Cobb and Sarah Sailor on his
rootsweb site. I was contacted by a Cobb descendant who told me this
may be the parent of my John Cobb, born 1814 in Henry County,
Kentucky. I have his biography from 1881 Lake County, California,
but he forgot to tell us his parents or his siblings names. Makes it
hard to find a John Cobb in the stack of them out there. If this is
in your database, please contact me.
John Cobb married Esther Deming in 1848 in Illinois and then they
moved to California about 1850 - they were my gr gr grandparents.

I am fairly new at finding my family roots, but I happened to run
across your beautiful and informative site through Ansestry.com. I
am related to the Stephenson side. Cannon LaFayette Stephenson my
gggrand father who is buried in Vernon, Texas along with his wife
Mary, a son Lester and my ggrand Mother Mina Myrtle (Stephenson)
Agee/Hoover. It has been real difficult tracing the Stephenson line.
Myrtle had several sisters and some brothers but I cannot find any
information about them. They seemed to have vanished into thin air.
My mother remembers a few names like Vivian, Viola and Beulah. So,
if anyone has been researching the Stephenson clan and recognizes
some of these names, I could really use some help.

Daniel Monroe Shows |

Comments: |
Daniel Monroe Shows, son of James Shows, son of Adam Shows,
married Sarah Anne Terrell of Jasper County Mississippi. My maternal
grandmother, Sarah "Sallie" Elizabeth Shows was their daughter. I am
seeking documentation for Sarah Anne Terrells of Jasper County. She
was born, according to Census in July 1830 in Jasper County. She
married Daniel Monroe Shows about 1846 and they lived in Jones
County where he was County Clerk. He died in Civil War in 1864/65 in
Tuscaloosa, Alabama according to Sarah "Sallie Elizabeth Shows'
family history letter (held by me) and according to his Civil War
records. Sarah Anne Terrell eventually moved with their eight
children back to Jasper County in the 1880 Census, and back to Jones
County in the 1900 Census. She died in 1900 and is burried in the
Jones Shows family Cemetery in Jones County alongside her daughter,
Drusilla A. Shows. Sallie's Family History Letter states that "my
mother's people was Terrells. They came here from South Calina. My
gran father Terrell was one of the first white settlers in Jasper
Co. Miss. The Indians were there." My best guess is that her parents
were Joshua Terrell and Susanah Land Terrell of South Carolina,
Georgia, and Jasper County, Mississippi. I would appreciate
communication from anyone concerning Sarah Anne Terrell's parents.

Richard Touchton, circa 1657, from Maryland was the first
Touchton to arrive on these shores. I would like to know who his
children were and more about any of those
Touchstones/Touchtones/Touchtons who stayed in Maryland. I am NOT at
the moment interested in those who ventured into western Maryland or
into North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia. I am trying to
complete my line from Richard to my father, F. Morris Touchstone,
whose father was Frederick H. Touchton, whose father was Alfred M.
Touchton, whose father was Henry Touchton. From this point I am
having trouble locating the father of Henry who married Pamelia
Carroll, daughter of Aquila Carroll. Is there anyone out there who
can help fill me in on these Maryland Touchstones????

Hi! Found your site through a link on ancestry.com. My
gg-grandmother is Lucy Henrietta Nicholson who married Andrew
Jackson Rowlett. The information you have provided has been
wonderful to find. And I also appreciate the fact that you list
sources - not just speculation as some of it is - but the actual
census info, etc. It's been great!
Just want to say thanks. I'm working on my website right now but
don't have much genealogy info there yet - it's mainly about "us"
and our hobbies. www.geocities.com/imacouturier/
