Subject: Comp 243 - Burnett-Turner-Ross-Via-Etc/Etc
2 Nov 1997
Greetings to Everyone,
You folks are keeping me busy. Sure is nice to hear from you. Half the
group has responded to the poll. If you're in the half that hasn't
responded yet, how about doing that as soon as possible. We've had a
couple folks request to unsubscribe during the last few days. We even
heard from someone who doesn't subscribe, but drops by Chris' home page to
check out the compilations. So, I've invited her to join us. It's time
for her to become a part of the group now that we know she's been watching
us from the bleachers.
Keep sending those eMails.

Hi Nyla,
Just an interesting tidbit from the "past." You had mentioned before that
the Burnett's, Turner's and Ross's, seemed to cross paths and often the
families intermarried; well, when I was a teenager (oh, so long ago), one
of my neighbor's another teenager by the name of Roberta Ross (her Father
was Harold Ross from the East), dated and married a fellow high school
student in the late 1950's by the name of Stanley Burnett. Many of my high
school friends thought he was my brother, however, we hardly spoke, we were
both rather shy, so I never knew if he was related or not. But, feel it's
worthy of mentioning, another affirmation of the relationships between the
families. The geographical area, was San Bernardino County, town of
Fontana, in California.

Jeane, Who knows. Maybe Stanley and Roberta are on our mailing list or maybe
someone recognize this couple. Interesting. Nyla

Hi,
This question is mainly for StevePipit, you write:
>However, my Ross families were from further north (Yankee Virginians?) around
>Botetourt, Montgomery, Wythe, and Campbell Counties in the 1750s through
>1840.
I am trying to find a Susan ROSS b. 1805 in Virginia. She married William
FERGUSON b. 1795 NC, they had a son Joseph William FERGUSON b. 2-1837 in
Gibson Co., Trenton TN. If you might have any possible leads to help me
find Susan, I would be most appreciative of any info you can share. Thanks.

I am Ricky Lane Burnett, <age> years young, male from Lancaster Ca.
<status snipped> Genealogist, I was born in NE Susquehanna Co. Pennsylvania.
The hospital was actually in Binghamton NY but my parents lived in
Hallstead Pa. I came to California in 1981. My mother, at the age of
53, passed away in 1984. I received the only thing I really wanted from
moms house and that was her picture box. A lot of the photos had been
destroyed in a fire when I was younger but I remember from time to time
mom would get it out and we would look at the few dozen photos left. I
didn't open the box for a few years. I just didn't have the heart for
it. One day in 1995 I was moving some things from my closet and the
box came down from the top of the shelf and busted open. I sat there on
the floor looking at the photos of my mother and brothers and sisters
and other relatives when I came across the birth record of my
grandfather George Burnett born 1885 in Antioch Lake Co ILL. There on
the page were the signatures of my GGrandparents Freeman and
Christiana. I started wondering about them all, I had never knew any of
the Burnetts other than the siblings of my father. I was hooked, I
started by calling all of my living relatives and asking hundreds of
questions. When they would answer the phone and realize it was me on
the other end the reply I usually got was "Rick, I have already told you
everything I know." Then I found the LDS Family History Center in West
Hollywood. Then I found the Turner-Burnet-Via-Ross-Etc-Etc home page
and the rest is history. I have since, with the help of many good
people all around the USA traced my Ancestry back to my
GGGGGGrandfather Robert Burnet born in Edinburgh Scotland in 1701.
Nyla if you want you can print all of this.

Thanks, Ricky. I did. Nyla

Dear Nyla, I am a <age> something <gender>. Currently live in Arkansas,
but have no family here. I hadn't responded yet cause I am really a
cousin-in law. My husband is the Turner decendant. He was born and grew
up in Henry County, Va. I dabble around with his family tree, so that our
children will know where they came from, {and because they are all such
nice people). His VA people are Philpotts, Franklins, Stones, and
Turners. My own family is from Mercer Co. WVA. My lines are Pennington,
Lilly, Pennington, Howard, Pennington, with a few Jones, McDonalds,
Sniders, and Meadows thrown in. The reason Pennington is repeated is that
my tree intersects itself so much that I tell people that MY family tree
is (shaped like) a CEDAR. Rhonda

Rhoda: We really did want to hear about YOU. Thanks for sharing the
information with us. Helps us to know who else is reading these compilations.

From: cdorian@accessone.com (Charles Dorian)
I was with the PAF group that met in the LDS stake next to the Temple out in
Kensington, MD. I believe it was the first organized PAF group in the DC
area.
Additional info for your files - my first wife, whose Mother was a Burnett,
died in 1990 of cancer - married 45 years. I moved out here to Issaquah, WA
in June of 1991 and subsequently remarried in 1992. I had 6 children, one
died of cancer in 1973 at the age of 21. I have 12 grandchildren and one
great grandson. My second wife's line goes back to Ballou, in Rhode Island
about 1640, which is another line I am seriously searching.
I really enjoy all the information you have managed to elicited from
everyone. Thru your family search efforts I was able to reestablish contact
with June Bork - I provided some information for her first book many years
ago. What I need to do now is put my sources into my data program. Hopefully
when I "retire" as President of a couple of organizations I will have more
time??
All my best, Charles

Marvin,
I have one Bessie TURNER in my files in what appears to be the proper
time frame in Georgia (see individual #3 below). Whether it is yours or
not, I cannot say but I am providing below her brothers and sisters to see
if there is a link you recognise. I can provide this line back up to the VA
TURNERS if this is your link. Let us know. Most of this info came
from Janice Turner who is in our group as JaniceBT@aol.com Perhaps
she can help further. David
