The Highland Games are held in just about every State. Some States have
several. Our next Highland Games in Arizona will be next February at
the Mesa Community College. The Caledonia Society puts on the Higland
Games. The Clans set up Tents and each Clan gives out information about
their Clan's Heritage. I will be representing the House of Burnett here
in Mesa next February.
I know what some of the people are going through, that cannot locate
their ancestors. I use to go around saying, " I can't dig up my
Great-grandfather Burnett". Both of my Great-grandparents died
relatively young.
My Grandfather was an Orphan. However he did have
two brothers. One of his Brothers I haven't located yet. He moved to
Arizona, worked in the Mines and moved around. He never put down any
roots. (He was a Wanderer) I did find him listed on a pay roll for the
Mammoth Mines in Mammoth, AZ. According to the payroll he never
collected his pay. My Cousins told me that he visited them some time in
the early 1930's.
His name was James William Burnett.
Another mystery that I haven't solved is the Uncle James Burnett living
with my Great-grandparents in Texas. He was a Doctor, his name was
James Burnett. According to the 1850 Census he was born in Tennessee.
My Great-grandfather Burnett moved to Texas from Kentucky.
There is a Burnett Cemetery in Texas, that was on the Burnett Farm.
Texas has made it into a State Monument. There are some Stones Buried
in that Cemetery. My Great-great-great-grandfather married a Millie
Stone.
Also my Cousin Pauline's Mother married a Via after her
Father, George Washington died. They lived in Oklahoma.
The Burnett's have five Tartans, Ancient, modern, weathered, hunting,
and dress. Most venders have the ancient in a scarf and tie.
To purchase the dress and hunting you need to by them from The House of
Burnett. You can find the House of Burnett Store at the Burnett Website
kept by Mary Dunklee. Some vendors have the modern.
I thought you might like to know for your survey, that I'm a <occupation
snipped>
my grandfather was a Cabinet Maker, My Great-grandfather, a farmer. My
Grandparents
and parents attended the First Christian Church. My Brother was a Catholic,
also my
older Sister. The rest of us were Baptist. I am now a Presybterian.
San Diego isn't that far from Phoenix, AZ. Come to our Highland Games
in February. Another Good Game to attend is Costa Mesa the last week
end in May. Jerry Lou

yours? David
Hello, David and everybody, those are my KELLEY, TURNER, and INGRAM lines.
I have an INGRAM Family Bible and I've been intending to send you all the
information in it so you can make a few corrections. The majority of the
people listed below were from the Franklin-Floyd County VA area. William L.
INGRAM's home (what's left of it) is still standing within sight of the Blue
Ridge Parkway in Floyd County VA.
This Ingram Family Bible belonged to Margarette Emmaline ROBERTSON, William
L. INGRAM's second wife. His first wife, Sarah TURNER, died in childbirth
when her daughter, Nora, was born. I am descended from William L. INGRAM
and Sarah TURNER. Nora INGRAM married Homer KELLEY; they were my
great-grandparents.
Margarette Emmaline ROBERTSON INGRAM was known by family members as "Fat
Granny" Ingram, according to my father, Ausborne Paul KELLEY.
INGRAM FAMILY BIBLE: The following records of births, marriages and deaths
were copied from the Ingram Family Bible: "Emmaline Ingram, Her Book,
February
the 3, 1872." All spelling and punctuation has been copied exactly as shown
in the Family Bible.
Births: "William L. Ingrum was borned May the 16, 1844.
Emmaline Ingrum was borned April the 9, 1846.
Milton D. Ingrum was borned February the 15, 1867.
Iva Nora E. Ingrum was borned Oct the 2ond 1868.
E. H. Ingram born Nov. 9, 1872."
Marriages: "William L. Ingram and Sarah R. Turner was married May 15, 1866.
William L. Ingrum and Emmaline Robertson was married February the 23,
1870.
Homer H. Kelley and Nora E. Ingram was married January 16, 1889.
Deaths: Thomas O. Ingram departed this life December 21st 1886.
Willard Ingram departed this life May the 10, 1886.
Julia L. Robertson dept this life July 29, 1884.
Isac E. Robertson dep. this life January the 18th, 1890.
Emaline Ingram departed this life June the 18, 1930.
Age 84 years 2 mo. 9 days.
Sarah R. Ingrum departed this life Oct the 12, 1868.
Milton D. Ingrum departed this life Oct. the 3rd 1867.
William L. Ingram dep this life Aug 1st 1912 age 68 years 2 montsh 16 days
E. H. Ingrum depart this life April 18, 1900."
Hope this helps someone out there. I have so much information from cousins
on this list that I haven't had time to put it all into my computer!

Love to all my extended family members,

I've just returned from a visit to Roanoke and was there in time to see the
fall foliage. I took a walk in Fishburn Park and did some leaf-collecting.

Paula: Welcome back. Oh, to see some colored leaves. Now folks don't get
any ideas
and send me a box of leaves. Just trying to say that I missed out on Autumn
this year,
being in San Diego. I'm not complaining, but living in San Diego in the
fall is not the
same as living in Virginia or West Virginia. Nyla

Thanks to June Bork and this group I now know the name of Lewis Burnett's
father,
and his children. Seems I had become confused because Lucinda married a
Miller after
Lewis death. I thought that was her maiden name. Now all I have to do is
sort out the
children and I'm on my way.
Thanks again - and you are doing a tremendous job.

From: Mack1435
I thought I would respond to your survey, even tho I'm not a member of your
group. I'm
just one of the many who visits Chris' page on a regular basis to follow your
progress. I
stumbled onto your group when I did a name search and subsequently was able
to get in
touch with David who started me on this time consuming project you call
genealogy. I
have been building my wife's tree (Pedigo) and your group has been very
helpful in filling
in some of the blanks.
<snip survey info>
Keep up the good work and thanks for all of the information your group has
been willing
to share.

While I'm here, I'll tell you guys what I am doing. I am recording ALL
information that I can find on these names that were in Patrick County
prior to 1900, so if you have ANY info, whether it seems to be related to
my direct lines I posted or not, PLEASE send it to me. It could be vital!!!
I'm also researching related lines, so that is why I may have small
amounts of info on other names like I did for Griffith, Arnold, and
Hollandsworth. Here are my primary names.
Hutson
Reynolds
Wright
Clark
Law
Rakes
Winfree/Winfrey
I would also be interested in these names in counties surrounding Patrick.
Thanks so much guys. This group is GREAT!!! Jeannie
