Subject: [KnoxCoTN] Re: RUTHERFORD Genealogical Books to be reprinted

Those of you who are researching the surname RUTHERFORD might be interested

in the following information that was posted on GenForum:

"Dear Fellow Rutherford Surname Genealogist:

For those of you who have previously expressed an interest in obtaining a

copy of the two-volume, hardbound set entitled "Genealogical History of the

Rutherford Family" written by Kenneth and Anna Rutherford, please go to the

website www.Rutherfordcpa.com to officially sign up for your copy. We are

currently gathering enough pre-subscribers so that we can go to print.

Anna Rutherford (one of the authors... she's 82 now!) has granted permission

to have these books reprinted, but due to the enormous cost, we have to have

at least 180 pre-subscribers at $150 per set.

I also need your help!! I not only need you to sign up, but I need your

family members, friends, associates, genealogical societies to sign up as

well. The sooner we get 180, the sooner we can all get a copy of the set and

move forward with our Rutherford research.

Please sign up for multiple copies if you can!!

Please do forward this email to anyone who would be interested in obtaining a

copy.

Who am I? I'm a fellow genealogist that wants a copy of this set so badly

that I am willing to take on the massive project of corralling enough

pre-subscribers to make the printing of this book happen."

Thanks,

Subject: [KnoxCoTN] HOODs, early 1800s VA

The 1810 Buckingham Co. VA federal census shows

Nathaniel HOOD age 45+ and John HOOD age 45+

were listed on pg. 819 and pg. 821 respectively.

Does anyone know about these men? Were they

brothers? Some other relation? Where did they

come from?

The 1820 Buckingham Co. VA federal census for

New Canton shows a John HOOD age 45+ but no

Nathaniel HOOD. Was this the same John? Where

did Nathaniel go? Also listed on this census in

New Canton was a Hobson HOOD age 45+ and in

1830 this Hobson HOOD was in neighboring Campbell

Co. VA. He was there in 1840, too. Then, on the 1850

Appomattox Co. VA census was Hobson HOOD and

Nathaniel H. HOOD. Was Hobson's full name

Nathaniel Hobson and Nathaniel H. was his son, possibly

a Jr.? That might explain why Nathaniel doesn't show up

on the 1820 Buckingham Co. VA census but Hobson does.

Or were they totally separate men?

And were these HOODs connected with Aaron HOOD

and his sister Lucinda HOOD, who later migrated to Knox Co.

TN with the CREWS family of Buckingham Co. VA?

Subject: [KnoxCoTN] Stofell / Burchfield / Highland Memorial Cemetery

This had a glitch in transmission -- I'm forwarding it for Linda.

Please respond directly to Linda if you have information.

My response: It's Steven's Mortuary, most likely. Highland Memorial has

more than one cemetery now, but in the '60's it was only the one on

Sutherland Ave.

The Stoffell family is well-researched in Knox County. Contact the McClung

Collection about their $15 surname research program: 500 W. Church Ave.,

Knoxville, TN 37902.
