Hi Jim!

My WHEELERs are from Massachusetts back to the 1600's, and ARNOTT is from Scotland.  Moses WHEELER was the immigrant in my lineage.

Hi,

My Mulhollands came thru Canada to MN and then settled in WI. I have seen trees on Ancestry that have Mulhollands in NY state but I do not remember anything more than that about them.

Good luck on your search,

Mary

Hi Jim...No, yall didn't scare me off the other day, I had something to do...I think you were on a BRB when I left.  As for my Barksdale relatives, William Barksdale m Elizabeth F Palmer in Abbeville, SC were my GGGG-grandparents. I am still kind of new to this and I haven't found his father although I am sure he has a bro Benjamin. I am sure there is a connection somewhere to the Gen Wm Barksdale but it isn't in my direct line that I am aware of.  Thanks for the comment...Kathy

My surname is Cart. It looks like you read it as Carl. The Cart ancestors came to America in 1752 and landed in Philadelphia. The German surname was Karg which became Cart early on and has been progressing to Carte. They were around Philadelphia until the 1790's when most migrated to VA (Monroe Co.) which later became WV in the Civil War.

We have been trying to discover where in Poland Stan Musial's father came from, but it has not been fruitful - even contacting the Foundation did not help.

lol...no but I do have his autograph :)  Thx for the welcome Jim!

Sorry I'm not.

Sorry, afraid not- my Samuel FERGUSON was Birth 9 JUN 1758,

Death 20 FEB 1814  in Butler County, OH.  He was married twice -

first to Elizabeth Anderson  and  then to Elizabeth Crooks Blue.

Hi Jim.....my ancestors changed the spelling from Cassel to Castle, but during the Cassel phase, I believe they were mostly from Bucks County.  I've never come across the Wolford last name in any of my searches.  I sure wish we had info to share.  Sorry.  It was nice to meet you...................Judy

Thanks.  I know I had Alley ancestors in the Union Army, not sure about Gettysburg.  I just made a major breakthrough on my Shepherd ancestors, and haven't discoverered many details yet.

Thanks for the invitation Jim.

I afraid I don't share any surnames with you. My research is into the GURD family whose lineage I can trace with certainty back to the early 16th century in Wiltshire, (concentrated in and around the little villages of Semley and Donhead St Mary. I have various records of the family in the same small area back as far as the 13th century, but of course there are no Parish Registers etc, to make firm links between people that early (a family tree based on assumption is worthless).  In the last two centuries a few family members emigrated to Australia, Canada and the USA, but in the main, the GURD family is still centred in the South West of England.

I look forward to sharing information and ideas with other researchers

Jim,

I appreciated your hospitality and kindness. I look forward to many conversations.

Sincerely,

Thanks Jim, that's a help as I'm still learning how to navigate around here.

Jim, that made me realize He was very lucky not to have been killed in battle because of the bayonets involved

Hi Jim,

My Avery's are from Ulster Co., NY. This line has been interesting to study. I worked on them for a long time, made no progress until one of my Avery cousins told me the name was originally Every, then things came together. Our immigrant was Edward Evre who came from Cornwall England to Long Island, NY in the 1600's. Our line changed the name from Every to Avery when they came to MI. Since, I have found many Avery and Every cousins surfing the www.

Thanks.  I'll contact him.  Maybe he will have a good source on the Goodwin name in the south.

Thanks Jom, I don't have any Beedles in Vermont that I know about.  I have 437 in other places.  I also have a 19 Averys but they are all in England.

Hi Jim, my Brodericks are from Clare, the opposite side of the country.  I would think it's a more common name around Clare than Wicklow, perhaps some of the strayed eastward.
