McNamara" <knox@tngenweb.org> Subject: Re: Roll Call Hi, Dwight! Welcome to our list! I have a sideways interest in the Mondays -- my McCall ancestors came to East Knox County about 1850. The family legend is that they were taken in by members of the Monday family. We go to church with some of the Monday family, and they knew of a distant connection also. I'd love to find out that, somewhere in the Monday family, there's a diary or letter that will give me some clues on these elusive people!!!

There are still a lot of Shirleys living in West Knoxville. Hope you find some cuzzins among the list subscribers!

I've seen several people mention Lowe in the past few days....hopefully, you'll find some cuzzins here! Those of you who don't live in the area may not know this: in some parts of Knox, Anderson, and Scott Counties, the surname Lowe is pronounced like "how." I'm not sure how it started, but it's a quick way to figure out which family someone descends from around here!

I'm interested in the family of Frederick Christian Warnack, and his wife Elizabeth. They were my 4th great grandparents and from the little I know about them, went from Pa., first to Greene Co.Tn, and then in about 1815, to Knox Co. Frederick owned a paper mill, in the Knoxville area. One of their children, Isaac, who was my 3rd g-grandfather, married Nancy Lonas, who was the daughter of Henry and Sybilla Lohnes/Lonas also from Knox Co. I'd really appreciate any information about either one of these families.
