THE ESSENCE OF SURVIVAL --- "Every morning in Africa, a Gazelle wakes
up. It knows it must run faster than the fastest lion or it will be
killed . . . Every morning a Lion wakes up. It knows it must outrun the
slowest Gazelle or it will starve to death. It doesn't matter whether
you are a Lion or a Gazelle . . . when the sun comes up, you'd better be
running."

Dear Nyla:
I have been working on my family research for less than a year. It all
started when I became interested in joining DAR. I have since then become
practically addicted to putting as many of the pieces of the puzzle together
as possible. Fortunately, a lot of my ancestry has been fairly easy to
trace. I am attempting to complete my application to DAR through my
paternal line (Tinsley). My gr-gr-gr-grandfather (Moses Tinsley) married
Elizabeth T. "Betsey" Tinsley March 19, 1798, in Amherst Co., VA. Betsey
was the daughter of John Turner and Mildred Suddarth Turner. Moses' and
Betsey's son, Isaac Turner Tinsley, married Mary Ann Turner (his first
cousin), daughter of James S. Turner and Nancy Goodrum. I have virtually
complete information on the descendants of Isaac Turner Tinsley and Mary Ann
Turner. What I need are documents which help to prove at least a close
approximation to the dates of: Betsey Turner's birth in Amherst County, VA
and death in Sumner Co., TN in approximately 1806; and the birth date and
death date of her husband, Moses Tinsley. Also, I need the same sort of
documentation on Mary Ann Turner's birth in Sumner Co., TN. Can anyone out
there help me? Any information would be greatly appreciated. Of course, I
am willing to share any thing I have which could help others.

Dear Cousins Nyla and Eva: Just wanted to send the both of you a big
"Thanks" for all of the info that I have received from you. I am very
limited in my genealogical activities right now as I broke my leg on
10/10/97 and had to have surgery to repair the damage. Needless to say
I am having difficulty accessing my actual physical genealogical papers
and files which will probably last another month. So I will be able to
send you some better data later on. For now I am pretty much limited to

AM I REALLY ME ??
To find out, If I could, The making of me.
All that I knew was Great- Grandfather's Name,
Not knowing his wife or whence he came.
I chased him through villiages, cities, and States,
And came up with pages of odd names and dates.
When I put them together, it makes me forlorn,
I'd proven Great-grandfather had never been born.
One day I was sure that the truth had been found,
New dates that would turn the whole thing around.
I looked up old records from my Great Uncle Tim
And proved that his Dad was younger than him.
Then, just when my hopes were fading so fast,
I discovered new records from out of the past.
The facts I've gathered make me quite sad
My dear old Great Grandpa was never a dad.
I think some rascal is pulling my leg
With records that prove I was hatched from an egg.
Dispite all this effort documenting my tree,
I can't help but wonder If I am really Me..

~My Cyber Friends~
I haven't ever seen you,
But I know you're really there;
I click you into reality
Like magic from the air.
Your voice is like an angel,
Though I really do not hear;
Your hug as warm as any
Of loved ones I hold dear.
You're always there for comfort,
Or a word of cheer;
Though you are very far away,
I always have you near.
You're a very special friend,
Like none I've ever known;
As long as you're in cyberspace
I'll never be alone......
=====================
The above poem came from a cyberspace friend. Nyla

that deal with Patrick County or families from that area. If you want to
check out the page so far it is at

knowledge of these two and their alleged ancestor John Via (dates
unkown) also of Franklin County.
