"Could not find what you are talking about. Are you going to start another group? I'm unable to do much more than answer emails right now. Hopefully I will adjust to my family situation sooner or later."

"I just discovered from Sorenson DNA (female) that I am connected to the Oliphant and Buckley lines. Marshall Evander Buckley b. 1848 MS md Maria Elizabeth Oliphant b. 1864 in Tennessee. This would be my mothers line I suppose. She was Jessie Mae…"

Clovis Marie Byars Herring replied to Debbie Winchell (Loving Dove)'s discussion Usley Gragg born ca 1819. in the group Gragg Surname

"Debbie I read the paper carefully last night. I also found a note from my sister wanting me to read it to see if it pertained to our Gargg family. It does. She had just copied selected pages and you may want to find the whole book and read it.…"

"I have in my files some copies from "Gragg Descent" by George Robert Gragg, 1978. I don't see a Usley Gragg just glancing through it. But I will try to read it tomorrow and let you know if I find anything that might help you. I think…"

Clovis Marie Byars Herring commented on Blake Georgie's group Gragg Surname

"Georgie you are doing great. Now maybe we can find someone else that is related. I show that Robert Gragg/Gregg and Lydia? Harrison was Henry Gragg's parents. The rest of your questions and comments will have to wait until tomorrow. Have a good…"

Clovis Marie Byars Herring commented on Blake Georgie's group Gragg Surname

"Georgie, I have Henry Gragg married first Nancy Crow (with a question mark because I got that from some one else and never proved it) supposedly the daughter of Walter Crow? So that tells me I need to do more research before I claim her as his first…"

"Great. It may be we are related some place further up the line. Don't you think?"

Clovis Marie Byars Herring commented on Blake Georgie's group Gragg Surname

"I am very sure there is more than one Martha Jane that was either born a Gragg or married a man by the name of Gragg. Many of the Gragg's changed the spelling of the name to Gregg. Is your Gragg ancestor from Missouri?"

"Georgie all I have is an abstract of the Will. I haven't seen Teds Book. I have sone my own research. I had to put genealogy on the back burner for a few years due to the loss of a son and my husbands illness. The complete Will for my Henry…"

Profile Information

What surnames are you interested in researching?: Pate, Price, Elkins, MaGill, Posey, Lovett, Bollinger, Byars, Herring, Blake to name just a few.

What countries and other locations are you interested in researching?: Lawrence Co. Ala

What is your level of genealogy knowledge?: Advanced Family History Researcher

If you are a genealogy expert, what are your specialties?: Don't claim to be an expert. In the years before Computers came into the "World of Genealogy" I published four surname guarterlies. "The Pate Pioneer" " The Elkins Eagel" "The Byars-Byers Family Enquirer" and "The Cole Chronicle". Due to health reasons and health problems I had to put genealogy on the back burner so to speak. Now, with the computer I'm back.

For what reason did you start genealogy research?: IWe moved to this area and had no knowledge about families who lived here in the past. When I told my mother about buying the land, she told me my grandparents married in Leon Co. Texas. She said she had always wanted to know about her roots and since a new Genealogical Society had just been started, I joined it 30 years ago. I found I was kin to half the people in the area.

Do you have a genealogy website or blog?: http://no

Roots Magic 4th edition

I just got my software and got it loaded. Then I put a PAF on it and it's so easy to use. I want documentation when possible and the PAF has some errors. I can quickly delete the errors and post documentation if I find none. I like it.

Daniel Pate

Daniel Pate born ca 1812 NC, to Miss, then to Leon Co. Texas
he married Susanah Graham. Hopefully he had ancestors in the Rev. War. yDNA says he descends from Thorogood Pate. Have yet to be able to find the connections.

16 Was not too young in that day and age. Look at William Elkins. According to DAR records, he was only 17. One year older. Tell her when I get back I will look at the library and see what I can come up with there. Possibly other 16 yr olds if that is the problem.
