Dickson Falls was the Captain. He was born in Lincoln County, NC and was a 29 year old farmer when he enlisted. he resigned on 11/22/1862.
The most exciting name on the list is thomas Dickson Falls who was also born in Lincoln County, NC. He was a 19 year old clerk when he enlisted as a sergeant. He was wounded at Gettysburg and taken POW and confined at Ft. Delaware and Johnson's Island, OH. He had been promoted to 3rd Lieutenant on 3/12/1863.

FALLS (several different) in 1929 Richmond, VA yearbook

RE: The Marshallite, 1929 John Marshall High School yearbook (Richmond, VA)

Falls, Howard

This yearbook lists the members of the Senior class of 1929, faculty members, members of the Corps of Cadets, and many members of various clubs (not all). Unfortunately, it does not list the names of the members of the Junior, Sophomore or Freshmen classes (only officers listed for those classes).

I extracted all of the names (& some other information) from the yearbook & have put them on my genealogy web site (total of 13 web pages, containing over 1,900 records; sorted alphabetically by surname).

The link to the first page of these extracts on my web site is:

DeborahBrownfieldStanley — 31 May 2005 10:36:22 GMT

The Chariton Leader, Chariton, Iowa
Thursday, January 30, 1908

JOHN H. HOOPS was born in Perry County, Ohio, March 10, 1825. At the age of
27 he was united in marriage to HESTER A. FALLS. To this union were born
nine children, three of whom died in infancy. FRANK, the eldest son, died

CHARLES of Red Oak, Ia.; JOHN of Russell, Ia.; WILLIAM of St. Anthony, Idaho
MARY ALLEN of Healdsburg, California, and IDA NOBLE of Dallas, Iowa. His
three sons were with him at the time of death, his daughters being unable to
be present on account of sickness.

The deceased united with the M.E. Church at the age of 16 years and was a
consistent member until the time of his death, which took place at the home
of his son CHARLES at Red Oak, Ia. He died at the age of 82 years, 10 months
and 16 days. His wife preceded him to the better land Sept. 7, 1897. He
came to Lucas County in 1866 and located near Russell where he lived until
the death of his wife, when he went to make his home with his daughter IDA
at Dallas, Marion County, Iowa.

He was a true Christian, a kind husband and a loving father and besides his
five children left to mourn his loss with several grandchildren, he leaves a
host of friends who feel they have lost a true friend and a kind neighbor.
The body was brought to Russell, Monday, Jan. 27th on train No. 4 and was
cared for by friends until the funeral services which were held Tuesday at
10:30 a.m. in the M.E. Church being conducted by D.J. Shenton. The

Which Isabella Kerr m. Capt. William Gilbreath Falls, d. 1780, Kings Mtn.

jveregge — 13 Jul 2003 7:28:55 GMT

Some researchers have posted information on their web sites that the Isabella Kerr, b. 1740, that married Capt. William Gilbreath Falls, is a daughter of William2 Kerr (James1)and Rosanna Jane Smith, while others have listed Isabella as a daughter of William's brother, John2 Kerr (James1), who married Lucy Pickens. There IS an Isabella Kerr listed in Chalkley's Augusta County, VA Records, daughter of John Kerr and Lucy Pickens that was baptized on Oct. 19, 1740 at Tinkling Spring Church. The first child that William2 Kerr had baptized at Tinkling Spring Church was his son, Andrew Kerr, on Sept. 16, 1744. Does any researcher have proof that there WAS a daughter of William Kerr named Isabella that married William Gilbreath Falls? One source has said that Isabella, daughter of William Kerr married a Gilbreath Franklin Falls, supposedly a brother of William Gilbreath Falls, but I can't find where this other Gilbreath Falls exists. Have been unable to locate a will other record for John Kerr OR William Kerr, naming a Gilbreath Falls as a son-in-law. Would like to resolve the discrepancy and get correct information to future researchers. Please e-mail information to: Delijim@aol.com
Thank you.

My Family

David W. Falls — 25 Mar 2003 10:01:22 GMT

Hello, my name is David Falls and I am a descendant of James MacFall or Fall (s). I am trying to research the Falls or MacFall name, there is already a good Family tree, that was compiled by the Church of Latter-day Saints.
I currently live in Norfolk Va, with my wife and two children, my father is Michael Falls, my grandfather was Roscoe Falls, his Father was Preston Falls, and his father was James, then Peter, then James. James MacFalls was born in Scotland about 1765 and died in Botetourt, Va. About 1829. His father was John McFall or MacFall, all I know of him is that he was born around 1717 in Scotland, and came to America about 1749.
According to all accounts known to me, John MacFall was born in Scotland around 1717. John MacFall fought against the British in the battle at Culloden Moor in 1746 with the clan Mackintosh ( the MacFall clan appears in at-least 10 clans as a sept of that clan) . After the defeat at Culloden Moor he and his family had to flee for their lives and hide out as they and any Scotsmen were considered traitors to the crown and could be executed if caught.
John retained his name MacFall but his sons dropped the Mac and were known there-in as the "Falls". John Macfall had at-least three sons they were James, Peter and John.
If there is anyone with any records or further knowledge of this, I would love to hear from you. I have run in to a brick wall in my search beyond this point.
Please feel free to contact me, or forward this to anyone who may be able to help in this matter.

Thank you,
David Falls

P.S. here’s a great help

JOHN FALLS ARIZONA STATE PRISON 1916-21

Sandy McDougall — 13 Jul 2003 12:36:30 GMT

Searching for any clues as to what became of John (aka Jack) FALLS. According to record he was born abt. 1870 in Tennessee. I have found a listing in Coffee Co, Tenn. 1880 under John W. FALLS and wife Margaret showing children Bettie 13, Mollie 11, John W. 9, James 5, Rebeca 3 and William 1, all born Tennessee. I think this MAY be the family.
My John FALLS married in Tombstone, Cochise, Arizona 21 Feb. 1907 to Elizabeth DOWNING. Two children were born, the first, a son died at birth. Second a daughter Marjorie Norine was born 28 Aug 1912.
John and his partner Tom Castleberry had disagreement over their business in the Bisbee/Nogales area and it culminated in the death of Mr. Castleberry 31 Mar 1916 in Patagonia. John was tried for murder in Nogales 25 Oct 1916 and was found guilty 29 Oct 1916 and sentenced to 10-25 years in the Arizona State Prison. He was received there 10 Nov 1916 and was sent to work on one of the road projects then, in 1921 was sent to the State Hospital. He escaped from that hospital and did not again return to prison.
His wife procurred a divorce in 1917 and later remarried one Herbert McCUTCHAN 29 Aug 1918.
I am trying to find any clues to John or any family members as his daughter Marjorie had children so there are grandchildren and great grandchildren who would like to know the FALLS family and their heritage.
Thank you for any help.

Falls in VA

galileo — 24 Jun 2001 3:20:32 GMT

I have Falls ancestors that lived in Waynesboro, VA, and in the surrounding areas. I do not know much about them though. My great-grandfather was John McPierce Falls who married Laura Willie Bersch who was from Buckingham Co. She died 2 months after my grandfather, Laythan, and his twin brother, Layman, were born in 1918. The children were then raised by Bersch relatives. John Falls was the son of Jeremiah and Elizabeth Falls. He had several brothers and sisters: Charles, Harry, Doskey, A. C. (Azro?), Alice, and Margaret Elaine. Many of them are buried at Beech Grove cemetery. John is buried at a Mt. Olivet Church near Mt. Solon. I have had no luck finding descendants of John's siblings. My grandfather and his twin and older brother are now deceased. My grandfather knew little about the Falls family since he was raised by Bersches. At the bottom of the webpage http://www.familytreemaker.com/users/d/a/v/Jennifer-F-Davis/... is a link to Bersch/Falls .jpeg files that include obituaries and photos I have. I will gladly share info. that I do have, and I would appreciate any leads.

Falls/Lowe circa 1870 Texas

Stan Thornton — 20 Jan 2003 11:55:39 GMT

I have been attempting to research my Lowe line in Missouri, when I came across an 1880's Census record of my great great grandfather, WIlliam Isaiah Lowe, in Lawrence County, Missouri.

The Census lists his birth at Georgia. Also in his home was Joannah Falls, age 9...and relationship states "neice". Her birthplace was listed as Texas.

I do not have any idea how she came to be in his home, but I assume it means her parents died, and he became her guardian.....

Anyone with a suggestion?

Thanks

Falls Family Reunion

Jason Falls — 30 Dec 2000 5:57:39 GMT

My father and aunt are organizing a Falls family reunion at our family farm outside of Lynchburg, Va., the first weekend of August. Our Falls line decends from James MacFall who came to America after fleeing Scotland in the late 1600s. The Falls family of his son settled around Roanoke, Va., and I would expect are ancestors of a lot of the Virginia Falls families.

If you would like more information about our get together (which will include updating our family tree with whomever shows up - whatever they can add), e-mail me at jfallsman@yahoo.com!

Hope to hear from ya!
