1860 Census Breathitt Co. KY, NA roll #357 p.6 35/35

It appears to me, according to the 1840 Census of William Cockerham of Owsley Co. KY, that there was an unidentified female born between 1825 and 1830. The Elisabeth in the above enumeration fits the profile. Since this unidentified female is the only female in that family group, it is not unlikely that this female would be named after her mother. In keeping with that all her children were born in Owsley Co. KY and a marriage from the Cockerham family from Mary Polly Cockerham to a Thomas A. Fulks, it is not hard to imagine that marriage produced a son, Thomas. Therefore, as of this date, untill I get further contradicting information, I am going to consider these to be the facts, a marriage between first cousins. Corbet Cochran Jr. 11/5/97.

Hi David and All,

I don't know how many of you I share DNA with, but if I've reckoned correctly I share 16.7 cM with you, David Marshall, my 3C1R. And 20.3 cM with Sally Taylor my 4C. We each descend from John Wolfe Sparger Wolfensparger 1779-1834. The lineages connecting us are pasted below. And my own tree is attached, FYI.

Just in case anyone is curious, I only learned about 3 years ago that my biological father was William Murlin Creasy, Jr. DNA revealed the secret affair between he and my mom. As a result I've been pretty obsessed working out my tree, and verifying it where possible using my DNA matches.

The second message below was sent on the same day as the one above.

David!

Nice! Here's my mom:

Rita Mary Kirby DNA
1922?2018
BIRTH 11 DEC 1922 ? Northampton, Massachusetts, USA
DEATH 1 MAY 2018 ? Tucson, AZ

And her husband, the fine man who raised me, gave me my name and sense of humor, apparently never knowing of mom's affair:

Theron Marcus "Don" Vining
1914?1989
BIRTH 28 JUL 1914 ? North Adams, Massachusetts, USA
DEATH 6 OCT 1989 ? Gainesville, Florida, USA

Use whatever seems appropriate!

The full text of her reflections is shown below. Her daughter, Deanna, worked with her to get this information while she was in the nursing home. She was completely lucid and her mind was clear, so the information below should be accurate.
__________________________________

Mother tired easily and grew weary of my questions at times. I had to wait until she was in the right frame of mind and felt well enough to deal with these questions that often brought back a flood of memories to her. Therefore, the interviews extended over a long period of time. I tried to use her words insofar as I could, so I put her responses in quotation marks. I was not able to cover all the questions, but covered most of them. In any event, there may be some surprises for all of you. I know there were for me. (Deanna Brewer)

1. Your Grandparents

a. Where are they from?

Maternal Grandparents: "I don't know. Mother's mother was an old Ironside

b. Did your grandparents ever tell you stories about when they were little?

"No."

c. Are you like any of your grandparents in any way?

"Don't know, except I like to have fun like Daddy's daddy. I would ride on his

Richmond, Virginia. I waited on the curb everyday for him and Uncle Russell. I
loved them. This was when I was between six and nine years old."

d. Do you have a favorite grandparent memory?

"I liked to get on the train and go to the beach (Buckroe Beach) twice a year.

Granddad was a good cook. He cooked in the army in the Spanish-American war.
He could cook anything. Grandmother was a good cook, too. She cooked on a gas
stove and sometimes sold what she cooked--meats, vegetables and bread--everything.
Just a sideline. Granddad worked in the paper mill. They had nine children. When
she had the last one she said, She took care of the rest and he could take care of that
one.' Every time he came home, she got pregnant."

2. Your Parents

a. Do you know any stories about when they were young?

"My children to Sam."

g. Do you remember when you got your first skates or bicycle? How did you learn to
get around on your new "wheels"?

"First skates--I remember them very well. I wanted them so bad. I skated all over
the place. I skated down a hill and one of the wheels came off and I fell in a
neighbor's yard and hurt my arm. But I never told my mother because I knew she
would not let me skate anymore. We had a lot of fun. There was a special street they
marked off where everyone skated. I lived in front of a big park that had a big
swimming pool. They drained it three times a day and filled it and we would all go
hop in.

I learned to skate by falling-and-getting-up-and-falling-again method."

h. Tell us about the other children in your family and how you got along with them.

"My younger brother, Graham, was born sick; he had bad kidney trouble but he got
along all right. We played together. He was always sick.

I had a younger sister, Vernell, who died when she was two years old. I cried my
heart out when she died. She had a bad cold that went into pneumonia.

My sister, Pauline, was always fine and healthy. I put her and Vernell in the carriage
at the same time and pushed them around. I married when she was still real young.
Graham was still a teenager.

My youngest brother, Clyde, Jr., was only two when I got married."

i. What did your family like to do together?

"Eat. Young ones liked to swim together. Dad took us to James River and we would
swim. Our neighbor had a boat and we would ride it in James River. We went to the
Baptist Church together. Not much to do, to tell you the truth."

j. Do you remember a favorite family recipe?

"Mamma's baked chicken and dressing. It was gooood, now you hear me!"

k. Did you ever get into trouble for doing something you weren't supposed to do? What
was it? How old were you?

down to the ground. I was six to twelve years old. I got spanked once a day,
everyday. It was so much fun...

I was not supposed to sneak out and go swimming when Mamma was asleep, but I
did. What was worse, I took my little brother with me. I was six to twelve. I was
always getting in trouble."

person?

"No. I had a friend but didn't have a crush on him. His name was Thurmond Creel.
I went to the library and got books for him. He was good looking. I corresponded
with him when we moved to Mt. Airy, but my mother made me stop because she
thought I was getting serious--and she may have been right. He was an avid reader.
I have often wondered what happened to him."

p. Who were your best friends when you were growing up? What did you do together?

"Doris Sharpe and Ellen Nunnally. Played jack rocks, hide and seek, chased little
boys around, made fudge candy and sold it to men in Chevrolet place right down the
street, went swimming in little swimming pool across the street, went to Swan Lake

36975 Unnumbered Documents - Talbott, Joseph W. Civil War Letter

I purchased this letter for $150 from BJ's Stamps and Coins, 6342 W. Bell Rd., Glendale, Arizona 85308 in February, 2011. They contacted me by email because they found Joseph's name on my website. There is documentation with the letter that positively identifies him as part of my wife's, Ruth Elizabeth Talbot's, family. He is her 5th cousin, 5 times removed.

The letter is fragile and difficult to read, but the coin shop engaged a genealogist, Tanja Turtsany, to transcribe the letter. The transcription is included with the letter.

Joseph was a Private in the Eightieth Regiment Ohio Volunteer Infantry. The package includes information about that unit and their campaigns during the Civil War. He wrote the letter on May 23, 1863 while he was 4 miles below Vicksburg, Mississippi.

Hi Brenda and David,

Hope you are both well.

Nice to hear from you. Seems strange that a man born 200 years ago is still bothering his two families with puzzling questions! It would be nice to work them out. I believe that the death certificate is a child of John Marion, just too many things fall into place. Two mysteries in the certificate, Frankie's last Arthur, and born in Indiana. Was she in fact born in Indiana and maybe that's why she and John initially moved back to her area, or is it that when Frankie died her children thought that because they came from Indiana to Texas that is where they assumed she was born? The "informant" was Ida Crockett who had knowledge of his parents name, and I would think a family member?. Perhaps we could tract her line. I wonder if Frankie were born either a Pate or an Arthur, and married either a Pate or an Arthur before John Marion; and either one could have been her maiden name. Just a thought. When our cousin Robert Marshall spent time in White Plains gathering his information in 1925 the bulk of it was from Garland, younger brother of John Marion. Also my Uncle Gurney Robertson was involved in the compilation with follow up questions, just not sure who had what imput.

His information about the first of our Marshalls in the area is pretty accurate, I believe Garland only knew or recalled of the children by Martin's second wife. As far as the information about John Marion, I did track down that he was a member of the home guard during the war, and he was in fact the revenue officer. But the other information about his being a state representative and in the house of representatives after the war I could never find any evidence of that. I thought I covered all avenues at the time to confirm/deny that, but maybe there's something that I didn't locate. I think there has got to be some element of truth to this and didn't come out of nowhere, maybe he ran and was defeated? Also, I would have thought that if Garland knew enough to know John Marion's "other woman's" first name why would he have been wrong about the last? Her name certainly would have to have been discussed within all the family for years after the two left White Plains. Time will hopefully tell.

Til next time,Regards, Gil

36999 wolfersberger, Johannes - Memorial - In the unnumbered documents folder - This is a picture of the memorial stone dedicated to JOHANNES WOLFERSBERGER and ANNA MARGARETHA ENSMINGER WOLFERSBERGER. It is located in the Lutheran Cemetery, Schaefferstown, Pennsylvania, Memorial Day 27 May 1996. The stone has a list of their children on it which does not agree completely with the other documentation I have about this family. I made some modifications to my data based on what is on the memorial stone. The spelling of her middle name is not clear in the picture but the first four letters are definitely "Mari." - DWM - 5/12/2004 SPARGER, Anna Marie (I40979)
