Hi to all,

First, I would like to commend Billie McNamara for the great job she =

does with this list. She seems to always be engaging the list with her =

running commentaries... and informative tid-bits ...Thanks Billie!

Now, the family tie I have with Knox county is Booth. Does anyone =

have ANY Booth's in their families? Any at all?

Oh, and I also have many Pratts, Wilsons and Oglesbys in my family, =

but have not done a lot of research on them, other than visit and =

document some stones At the Trentville cemetary and Pratts Chapel too. =

I think there is someone working on the Pratt-Oglesby- Wilson =

connection. I e-mailed him several years ago, but got no response and =

since have lost his address. (sorry).

Thanks ,

J.D. White

I am researching Walker & Wright surnames in Knox and Anderson Counties.

My GGGrandfather was James Walker born 1804 in Va., married Mary Ann

Wright in Knox County in 1833. Their children were Edmond Harvey

born1837 married Nancy Ann Voiles(Viles) in Anderson County in 1858(my

direct line), Margaret born 1835 married John Goodman in Anderson County

in 1857, Ann F(Amy) born 1845 possibly married a Stansberry in Knox

County, William born 1850 and Edward born 1853. They lived in Anderson

County and then back in Knox County. James & Mary Ann both died in Knox

County sometime after 1870. I can't seem to trace any further back on

the Walker or Wright.I would love to hear from anyone that has any

information on these 2 names. Thanks

My brick wall is the family of my husbands gggrandmother. Her name was

Sarah and she was a widow when she married his gggrandfather. Her first

husbands last name was Scantling, some say his first name was Samuel. Their

daughter Mary Little Scantling was born in Knoxville Tn on March 25, 1811,

and by 1820, Sarah was living with her children in Floyd Co IN.

I keep waiting and hoping that someone may know something about this family

in Knoxville in 1811.

Hi,

I am a Knoxville native, born there in 1953. I just recently (in the =

last 2 years) moved to Birmingham Alabama and really miss my =

mountains.....no place is prettier than East Tennessee....

I am researching Nelsons from Campbell County, Fords from Campbell =

County, Jones from Campbell County, Ramseys from Knox County, Aults from =

Knox County, Frees from Knox County (and surrounding areas) and Williams =

from Knox County,=20

The Williams line is my brick wall.....My father was Charles Baxter =

Williams, son of Baxter Lee Williams and Katherine Elizabeth Ramsey. =

Baxter was the son of Jim Edd Williams and Lora Belle Cox (Mary Cox). =

Jim Edd Williams (1881-1929) is said to be the son of William =

Williams(died 1922) and Martha Ann Bowling. I can't find anything at =

all about Jim Edd (may have been Edward James) or Lora Belle or William =

or Martha Ann.....any help would be most appreciated!
