Hello Everyone:
A big welcome to the new folks, and a big thank you to everyone who shared
information. Karen gets a <<<big hug>>> for all the sleep she lost while
working on Turner information for us. As always, Chris and Kevin deserve
a thank you for their work. And last, but not least, a standing ovation
for David's contributions last week. Hope everyone enjoyed the mail last
weekend.
More eMails.

Subj: Ross Info Swap
Date: 97-09-19 09:40:08 EDT
From: StevePipit
To: NCreed1
Realizing that the surname ROSS is the 18th most common name in America,
chances are slim that anyone in your group has a clue about my John Wythe
Ross (b probably near Richmond or Montgomery Co.VA 1824, lived in Iowa,
CA, TX, d 1881 in NM) or his father, William Ross of VA. However, if you
think there's a chance there's stuff in your database on the Rosses of VA
in 17th and 18th and early 19th centuries, and it's organized so the
reader doesn't have to wade through the 1950s Rosses of Timbucktoo to find
it, I'd be honored to be part of your mailing list. Also, I can provide a
GEDCOM file if you can accommodate it. StevePipit@AOL.com
========================
Greetings:
We have approximately 214 compilations on Chris Gaunt's home page:
http://www-personal.umich.edu/~cgaunt
You might want to take a look and do a search to see if you find your Ross
family.
If you find a file that looks interesting, you can download it. Or download
them all. Just be forewarned, they are large files.
In the meantime, I'll add your eMail to the next compilation and see if
anyone recognizes your family.
Unfortunately, we aren't guilty of being organized. These compilations are
eMails that folks send me. Some of them are quite lengthy. Our goal is
share information. And that we have done. I take the information in any
format that folks want to send it.
The majority of our info is on Turner and Burnett families. However, there
is some info on the Ross family. Most of our families were from Southwestern
Virginia (Patrick, Henry, Bedford, Franklin, etc.).
Anything you care to share on your line would be appreciated. If you'd like
to send me a narrative, outline, fgs, etc., I'd be glad to share it with
the list. Then Chris will archive it on her home page. Kevin will zip it to
make it easier for folks to copy. And it will be available for the whole
genealogy world to see.

Subj: ROSS--FERGUSON
Date: 97-09-19 02:43:46 EDT
From: ivygate@intrnet.net (Karen Moore)
Hi all,
I'm VERY new to this and have some questions about a possible connection.
In Comp 201 Revised, in the second page of letter from Permelia Corn to
Permelia's brother Samuel C. TURNER, she mentions a Margaret FERGUSON.
"tell Margaret Ferguson I have been to Sanfords". Does anyone know who this
Margaret FERGUSON is? I am also trying to find Susan ROSS b. 1805 in
Virginia. She married a William FERGUSON b. 1795 in North Carolina, buried
in Union County, Anna, IL. In 2-1837 they were in Gibson Co. TN, where a
son, Joseph William FERGUSON was born. He also died in Anna, IL. Can
someone help me please? I don't know how to figure out if these are all
just names in common or if there is a possibility there could be a
connection.
Thanks.

Subj: Burnett-Corn-Adams families
Date: 97-09-19 08:05:57 EDT
From: HarrisSEM
I have a question regarding the Burnett - Corn - and Adams families.
John Burnett and Elizabeth Tate had two daughters who married Corns:
1. Elizabeth Burnett b. 1793-94 , married Jesse Corn Jr. on Mar. 15, 1810 in
Patrick Co., VA. They moved to Franklin Co., Tenn.
2. Permilia Burnette b. abt 1795 , married Samuel Corn on Nov, 28, 1816 in
Pat. Co. , VA. They also moved to Franklin Co., Tenn.
Both Jesse Corn Jr. and Samuel Corn were the sons of Jesse Corn Sr. and
Nancy Hancock.
To continue....
According to several past compilations these are the children of Jesse Corn
Jr.
and Elizabeth Burnett:
1. Permilia Corn
2. Mary "Polly" Corn
3. Jane Corn
4. Dicea Corn
5. Peter Corn
6. Susan Corn
7. Judy Corn
According to the book, "The Burnett Family with Collateral Branches Also
Historical and Genealogical Notes on Allied Families and Biographical
Sketches of Various Eminent Burnetts" by Charles Howard Burnette on page
148 , it lists the children of John Burnett and Elizabeth Tate and
includes this: "Elizabeth. m. 13 March, 1810, Jesse Corn, Patrick Co.,
Va., and had s., Samuel Corn, of Franklin Co., Tenn."
So, it would seem that they also had a son, Samuel, but I have not seen him
listed anywhere else except in this book.
It also seems that several of Jesse Corn and Elizabeth Burnett's children
moved back to Patrick Co., VA . where they married and lived the rest of
their lives. (Even Elizabeth must have moved back, because she died in
Pat. Co in 1869.)
To continue further....
I have an Elizabeth Corn b. Aug. 20, 1788 in Franklin Co., Tenn. She
married the Rev. Joshua Adams in Dec. 16, 1809 in Pat. Co., VA. It says on
the Pat. Co. Death Records that her parents were Samuel Corn and
Elizabeth ___.
At last- the point of all this!! Would anybody be able to confirm if
Samuel Corn, father of Elizabeth Corn who married Joshua Adams, is the
same Samuel Corn who is perhaps the son of Jesse Corn Jr., and Elizabeth
Burnett?
Thanks a lot for any help!

Nyla, can you help me find the father of Martha Jane Thompson, William

John Greenville Turner (his father was Francis Turner, mother Nancy

Danny: Last Sunday, several REVISED compilations were sent. Use the issues
