Thanks for your message. I have done much research on the descendants of Richard Brownrigg of North Carolina. At present I am away from home and the relevant records to be able to reply to you in detail.
I am married to a Brownrigg who is a very distant cousin of
Richard mentioned above. My husband also left Ireland but his ancestors settled for 3 generations in Argentina. We now live in Costa Rica.

I have five generations with this name and appear to be missing one generation. They are New York, New Jersey (where there may have been a disaster in 1768), and ending in Geauga OH. Any info?

Re: Maggie Matilda (Edwards) EMANUEL (1893-1975)

DonaldRNewcomb — 2009-12-18 15:46:06Z

I have access to the paid side of Ancestry through a friend. Generally, that's adequate for my needs (since the bulk of my recent research has been in Spain) but it induces a delay between the time I think of something and when I can check on Ancestry. I also find that Ancestry is often of only limited help with thorny questions since so many people seem to be in the habit of copying and posting unsourced information.

I'm looking at Oklahoma D.C.s right now. It looks like they never transferred any to the State Archives, as has been done in many states. I might pursue the D.C. after the Holidays. Right now, I'm trying to contact other researchers with an interest in this family. No sense in reinventing the wheel.

Thanks again for your help.

Re: Maggie Matilda (Edwards) EMANUEL (1893-1975)

HL2604 — 2009-12-18 15:24:03Z

Oh! You do not subscribe to ancestry.com? No wonder my research "amazed" you! (lol) If some of the other frequent contributors had "beat me to the punch", you would have even more data. Thanks for explaining the surname! Betting you probably know more information on Maggie's ancestry than her descendants? Will you pursue death certificate on her mom?

Re: Maggie Matilda (Edwards) EMANUEL (1893-1975)

DonaldRNewcomb — 2009-12-18 13:11:24Z

I'm in contact with Shirley Bray who entered the headstone photos and data for the Thomas and Mary Edwards in the FindAGrave site. She believes that the 1918 date is a carver's error and that the actual date is 1928. I'll take a look at that Ancestry.com tree as soon as I can get on a friend's paid account. Thanks for all your help.

Re: Maggie Matilda (Edwards) EMANUEL (1893-1975)

HL2604 — 2009-12-18 06:57:40Z

You are welcome! Per familysearch.org, Mary Anne (Childerson) Edwards died 18 Feb 1948 in Tillman County, OK. May or may not be true? There is also data reflecting her husband's death 13 Dec 1918 in the same locale. Hard to understand how husband, wife, and three children were enumerated in 1920 OK-Tillman-Frederick-167-Image 27? Moses Thomas Emanuel (Maggie's spouse) is on a family tree viewable at http://trees.ancestry.com/tree/5710545/person/-153182822. Almost certain you have observed reversals of first and middle names? That's the case with Moses. He's identified as Thomas M. Emanuel in 1900 TX-Parker-Pct 4-73-Image 28 and Thomas Emanuel in 1910 OK-Tillman-Frederick Ward 1-District 248-Image 1.

Re: Maggie Matilda (Edwards) EMANUEL (1893-1975)

DonaldRNewcomb — 2009-12-18 01:15:48Z

Well, and you say you're not related. That's scary. I'm impressed. The surnames Childerstone, Childerston, Childerson and Chillison are all one in the same. Childerston is the Saxon root name, meaning place of the non-inheriting children. The English like to add "e" to the end of names (e.g. Smithe) so you get Childerstone. Childerson is a conscious or unconscious softening of the name and Chillison is what happens when the name travels south. I've seen it spelled three different ways in a single document. The surname in the US is a hobby of mine. I only recently stumbled upon Mary Anne Childerson Edwards
(http://www.findagrave.com/cgi-bin/fg.cgi?page=gr&GRid=34...;)
and believe that she may be a stray daughter of Richard J. Childerson (1843-ca 1894).

Thanks for the information. I may give the family a call tomorrow.

Re: Maggie Matilda (Edwards) EMANUEL (1893-1975)

HL2604 — 2009-12-18 00:28:27Z

What is the correct spelling for the surname you are researching? Maggie's death certificate indicates her mom was Mary Ann Childerson. Younger brother Raymond's death certificate spells the surname Chillison? View his document at http://pilot.familysearch.org/recordsearch/start.html#start Life span 20 Aug 1903 - 9 May 1958, born in Frederick, Tillman, OK and died in Littlefield, Lamb, TX. Raymond Olen/O'dell Edwards and Delores June Stanton were parents of: Vickie Cleo Etta-30 Jan 1957-Lamb and Tom Stanton-12 Jun 1959-Lubbock.

Not related and cannot provide an obit! You may not need one after this? Mrs Ernest Brock aka Dorothy Lee Emanuel (21 Aug 1923 - 29 Mar 2004) listed on SSDI with last benefits paid to an address in Lubbock, TX. Her husband Ernest Henry Brock (11 May 1919 - 23 Apr 1994) also on SSDI with last money paid to an address in Lubbock. Lubbock and the surrounding counties should be your focus. Ernest and Dorothy were parents of: Carolyn Evalene-8 Jun 1948 and Rudy Kipling-8 Oct 1951, both born in Lamb County. Carolyn Brock and Donald Ray Dillard were parents of: Dee Shannon-1 Mar 1967 and Laurel Lashelle-23 Oct 1970, both born in Tarrant County. Rudy Brock and Janice Marie Davis were parents of Katherine Jeannette-27 Oct 1974 in Bailey County. Ready? There is a public telephone listing in Hale County for R. K. Brock (806) 296-0047. Stay tuned, there's more!

Pennycwicks — 2008-07-30 22:20:06Z

Looking for an obituary for John Veston Allen died december 18th, 1949 in Bailey County, Texas. If the one I am looking for should have been about 84 yrs of age and born in 1864/65.
Any help would be appreciated.

Would very much like a scan of the article about the Elrods if you would be so kind.

Many thanks

ELROD families of Smith Co., TN; Bailey Co., TX; and Bryan Co., OK.

I am searching for information on the Elrod families of Smith Co., TN; Bailey Co., TX; and Bryan Co., OK.

This is not my line; however, I want to do something for a very kind man, Roy Holland Elrod, who is the widower of a distant cousin. Roy's wife was Malda Scheihagen (Chandler) Elrod. To the extent that I can "quickly" put together a family history for him, I'd like to do so relatively soon.

The thumbnail of his ancestry is that he descends from:
1. Ephriam and Nancy Ann (McDonald) Elrod
2. William E. and Mary Catherine "Kit" (Heard) Elrod
3. William Trousdale and Cordelia (Holland) Elrod
4. Roy Holland and Nina (Wallace) Elrod
5. Roy Jr. m. Malda ... they had no children.

Roy is 89 and would very much like to make contact with some of the descendants of his aunts/uncles, etc.

William Trousdale Elrod's children were:
1. Jesse Lee Elrod b. Bonham, TX d. San Angelo, TX
2. Roy himself b. Muleshoe, Bailey Co., TX
3. Helen Elrod b. OK
4. Carl Curtis Elrod b. OK d. San Angelo, TX
5. Novilla Elrod b. OK
6. Thomas J Elrod b. OK
7. William H Elrod b. OK

William Trousdale Elrod and Cordelia (Holland) Elrod both died in Texas. William Trousdale Elrod was born in Smith Co., TN. He may have married Cordelia in Smith Co., TN?

What I have above is about all I know at present.

If you descend from one of the above people, please contact me at:
mcowan @ erols.com

I noticed you were looking for info on Jesse Lee Elrod and his wife, Minnie H_____ Kennedy.
If you can share info with me about his family ... down to today's descendants, I'd be most grateful.

Many thanks.

It's not Celsie, it's Elsie. She is my maternal grandmother and is still alive. (2008)
Gladys is also still alive, both live in West Texas.

Is your grandmother, Mary Parnell related to the Holt family?

Whitelaw Bailey

Anyone have a Whitelaw Bailey in their line? I found an old picture developed in Birmingham, Alabama. The name of the gentleman is Whitelaw Baily.

Ramm Families - Bailey County, Texas

PaulineReynolds40 — 2007-09-25 22:57:18Z

Does anyone know if descendants of any of the following might still live in the Muleshoe, Bailey County area:

Edward W. and Minnie (Kube) Ramm
Alvin Albert and Jewel (Jacobs) Ramm
Walter R. and Florence (Fudge) Ramm

Also, if anyone has the book on Bailey County, could you please see if there is any mention of the Ramm family?

These Ramm families moved to both Bailey and Parmer counties from Copperas Cove, Coryell County, Texas.

I would appreciate any and all help. Thanks......Pauline

Re: GE

PaSain — 2007-07-19 00:16:17Z

Your query is somewhat confusing. TITLED "GE" posted to Bailey county Texas regarding Ethal Lee Bailey.

You should post to BAILEY SURNAME not this county board. What is the GE for ?

NO person listed as Ethel L/Lee Bailey in Mercer CO WV in 1900 census. No Wm Patton Fletcher either, following Ethel Fletcher matching criteria is in Beaver Pond, Mercer CO WV in 1910 married 5 yrs with two children husband listed as Dudley Fletcher. You should recognize children's names?
There were Bailey's listed in Beaver Pond in 1900 but no Ethel Bailey.

25 Bailey families counted in Beaver Pond in 1910, could not find the above Lewis Bailey who lived between to two Fletcher's in the 1900 record either and no males listed as Dudley Fletcher or Wm Fletcher born abt 1881.

W F/P and Dudley appear to be same person and rechecked Beaver Pond and East River in 1900 and still did not find her nor a Lewis S Bailey born 1884. Did not find W P / Dudley Fletcher in 1900 record either.

No WW I Draft registration found for your W P Fletcher. Lewis Shufflebarger Bailey born 17 May 1884 registered in Mercer county.

Unable to find Lewis Bailey and family in 1930 census. Checked for surname Shufflebarger and found some to be in Bluefield, Mercer county in census records assuming Lewis' mother could be a Shufflebarger.

Death certificate possibly would have her parents name on it.
