James B. & Mary Bell [Brown] Plum of WV

wvmountain21 — 2009-09-11 11:44:44Z

Looking for info/relatives of James B. Plum [b. 1907 WV] & wife Mary Bell Brown [b. 1911 WV]. They had the following children: Robert, Iretta, Kenneth, James [b.c. 1928], Richard [b.c. 1929]. Will share info. Barb Kelley

Re: James B. & Mary Bell [Brown] Plum of WV

wvmountain2 — 2009-09-07 17:59:21Z

I'm not sure what info I was looking for at the time. The mother of Mary Bell Brown Plum, Sarah Edith McDaniel, was sister to my grandfather, Andrew Jackson McDaniel. I correspond with another BROWN that you may know, Jim Brown, son of Julius Dale & Mary Jane. Maybe at the time I was searching for living family relatives as I do collateral lines. I don't do much genealogy anymore since my husband died, I can't travel & my health is not good. Most of what I do is on the internet.

Re: James B. & Mary Bell [Brown] Plum of WV

pcorman186 — 2009-07-31 03:53:45Z

James and Mary were my grandparents. Robert is my father. What information are you looking for?

Looking for information on Deborah Plum who married

moved to Chatam in Kent County Ontario and eventually

Minnie McBurney was my grandmother. She and her husband William McBurney purchased land in Oct 1900 in Pasadena where the Houston Lighting and Power co is now located. Horace Plum was her father, Thomas Plum was older brother of Minnie. Would apprecate hearing from your historical group.

Re: Plum’s in New Brunswick, Middlesex Co., NJ - CORRECTION!!!

2006-12-06 18:05:11Z

It seems that John Plum b. abt. 1805 was the son of Henry Plum & Catherine/Catharine Hampton. The John Hampton listed n the 1850 census record must have been Catherine’s older brother. Daughter Susan may have been “Sarah” that married a Benajah Mollison.

Plum’s in New Brunswick, Middlesex Co., NJ

2006-12-06 12:34:28Z

My 3rd great grandfather John Plum (b. 1805) was found living in New Brunswick, Middlesex Co., NJ in the 1850 census with his mother Catherine Plum (b. 1783), possibly his father John Hampton Plum (b.1773), his wife Sarah Bedell Plum (b. 1803) and his children Virginia (b.1829), John Jr. (b. 1829), Susan (b. 1833), Bonijah (this was how it was transcribed but I’m leaning towards Benjamin, (b. 1840) and William H. (b. 1847).
All Children are believed to have been born in New Brunswick, Middlesex Co., NJ.
I found John & his mother Catherine still living in 1860 but after this I have not been able to locate them. Both John Hampton & Sarah must have passed away sometime between 1850 & 1860 as neither of them is listed in the 1860 census. John Jr. (b.1829) married Mary Durham and resettled in Newark, Essex Co., NJ. William H. traveled west to California and married Edwinna C. Dryden.
If anyone has any connections to this family or any information such as dates, parents, siblings, spouses, children or whatnot I’d really appreciate hearing from you.

Re: Sonoma county, California Marriages

2006-12-06 12:24:56Z

Lori,
Does this record list Susan's parents, her age or birthplace?
I know I'm probably grasping for straws here but it's worth a shot. Thanks!

jgfollett — 2006-07-06 17:36:33Z

Hey Patsy,

I am trying to figure out the two sons of Ida and Walter. I have Frank and James.

The strange part is they are both married to a Thelma M. from West Va. Did Frank marry Thelma after James' death in 1927/1928? I am too confused.

I see in the 1930 census, there are several children who were born in West Va, were these the children of James and Thelma? How funny, Frank and family are living in Newport News and that's where I was born.

Re: Plum Family in Shenandoah Valley, Va

Delilah was my grandmother. I thought you might be interested to know that I found a new ancestor for the DAR through her. His name was Daniel Kiblinger. I was able to join the DAR through him and I received a special award from the Florida State Sociey of the DAR for my find. What a thrill! So, you could join through him if you don't already belong and wanted to. You would just have to have documentation from your birth back to the Louderbacks.

Re: PLUM/PLUMB OF ROCKINGHAM CTY. VA

Brian_Plum — 2008-02-26 03:10:25Z

I am also researching this line - the Richard you mention is the first cousin of my father (Junie is my great-grandfather). I would be very interested in exchanging any information.

My Great Grandmother was named Harriett Plum. She was married to a George Miller who was born in New Brunswick. My Grandmother (Harriett and George's daughter) was also named Harriett and she was born in 1855 or so.
George Miller and Harriett Plum is as far back as I can go on this part of the family. Don't know if there's a connection here?

I'm looking for a Mrs. Plum who lived in Racine WI on Sept. 18, 1919.

Horace Plum

adell2 — 2007-02-24 22:34:46Z

I believe your Horace Plum was in Pasadena, Harris, Texas and purchased property there on October 17, 1903. He is mentioned in David Pomeroy's book PASADENA THE EARLY YEARS, PAGE 84. He was named as the widowed father of Mrs. Minnie McBurney. My interest is that he and two other gentlemen bought land in Pasadena in 1904 for a future Methodist church. If you have any other information concerning this gentlemen our historical group in Pasadena would appreciate hearing from you. His first name was George according to this article, but he apparently was called Horace.

Aha! I found it!
Go to:

It's on the lower half of the page. The paragraph starts "Also among the original proprietors of Hartford was Padget ancestor William Cornwell." Her name was Sarah and the man she eventually married was Daniel Hubbard. There is a bit more info. there also.

Hope this helps.

Re: plum people

Marj_Green — 2008-04-25 16:15:40Z

I am researching a John Plum and came across this information. A woman whose name I don't remember had a child by a married man, named John Plum. She named the child Benoni. This is not my John Plum, so I passed the information over and don't remember where I found it. I just remembered because of the unusual name. I do remember she went on to marry someone else and lived in Connecticut at the time. The dates are about right. Hope this is of some help to you.

Re: Elijah W. Plum and descendants

wombat05 — 2007-02-08 01:47:33Z

The easiest way to find what information I have is to go the the wombat05 database on RootsWeb. Elijah (my ancestor)and his brothers came to New York City with their parents around 1815. The parents moved to PA in about 1825, but Elijah and his brothers stayed in NYC until the late 1840s. I think Nathaniel moved to Jersey City first, but Elijah followed within a few years. By 1852 they and their "blindmaking" businesses were in Jersey. I don't know much about their church attendance, but one of Elijah's children is buried in a Methodist cemetery in NYC.
