Hi Allen,

No, I don't have ancestors in Washington County. Iam resesrching in Fulton, Dekalb, Henry, Meriwether, Harris, Pike and Troup.  Maybe our research paths will cross.

Hello Allen.  I saw you in chat last night, and noticed that you are researching the surname Moore.  So am I.  I have English Moore's on my Mom's side and Irish Moore's on my Dad's.  Where are yours from?

Hi Allen, I appreciate you responding.  Any information you can shed on the Boyd's is more than appreciated.

Hi Allen, Yes, Sarah Rozet Drexel was my great-great-grandmother. I'd be curious to hear more about your interest in the Van Rensselaer family, especially if your interested in Alexander Van Rensselaer in particular.

well it looks like there were quite a few Phelps in Tyrell, NC in the 1790 census
At 6:22pm on January 13, 2010, Dawn Kurth-Minard said…
Allen, from what I have read, yes this Phelps line is from NC, Zodock Phelps came to IL in the early 1800's. He is llisted in the Tyrell, NC marriage records as marrying an Ann in1789.
He shows up in Jefferson Co, IL in 1820. I have sons shown as Loderick/Laderick Phelps, Frederick,Samuel, Silas & John.
