cheryle, I noticed that you said you have some Taylors from Rockingham VA in your tree. Would you be willing to share that with me. I am trying to find out more info concerning a George Taylor who was at Fort Pitt/Laurens during the Rev War. He joined up as a 17 yo from that area of VA. Edie
Cheryle, Can you tell me more about Sandra. What are her parents names Given and Sur and Grandparents names . Where are they from. John and Sarah were my Great-Great Grandparents. Sandra would have to have descended from Ben,William, Charles, John S. , or Anna. Which of these were herGreat great grandparents? bev
Hi Cheryle, I am a Hoover from Indiana . My Hoovers migrated out of N C to Ohio to IN. Some scattered as far as Ca. They descend from Andreas(Andrew) Hoover Who migrated out of Switzerland to Germany to Am. They are Quakers and spoke German. They all stayed around Bicknell,Edwardsport,and Vincennes,IN. Knox Co. They were Teachers,Lawers,Judges and Realators. Who were your grandparents and Greats&great-greats Etc.? I am Bev at--beverwat@yahoo.com
Not sure. My Hoover line did come from Pennsylvania - Bedford County. Supposidly his father's name was Thomas. His name was Daniel, born 1806 according to his headstone, but that seemed to change with every census *grin*
I see that you are looking for several lines of Davis. I have one that started in Kentucky, Mississippi, and South Carolina and ended (by marriage of two Davis's) in Texas.
Robert Davis (SC 1908?) + Mary Ann Davis (KY 1806? ; purported to be Jefferson Davis' sister) = Amanda Jane Davis (MS 1833).
Amanda Jane Davis (MS 1833) + Jacob A. Miller (TN 1807) = Mary Elizabeth Miller (TX 1852).
That's probably enough so you can see if these are the Davis's you are looking for.
Hi Cheryle my name is Anett. My Davis's seem to match locations of your except Quaker.. Main Davis characters are Jeremiah and Frances Davis-south carolina--William Davis and Sophia Brown in Greene Co. Alabama then to Texas Stafford Davis and Zula Portwood then to Oklahoma for Samual and Zula and thats where i am at.
I have a few Shoemakers in my ancestry. One Barbara Shoemaker, daughter of George Shoemaker, married George Jacob Coffelt (Kauffelt). I have others too who do not seem connected to George and Barbara but I don't know where they hailed from.
John Lafayette Hefner was my gg grandfather. He was born 1837 in Tennessee. Have have not found where he died. Other reseachers told me that his line back in time is as follows:
John Hefner B: 1821 in NC D: about 1858 place unknown Married: Tennessee (That's here name. Unknown surname.)
John Frederick Hefner B: 1810
Daniel Hefner B: 1778 in NC B: 1835 in NC Married: Elizabeth Mackey
Frederick Hefner B: about 1755 in NC D: after 1810 in NC Married: Barbara Whisenhunt
I have no other information. Is it possible that these Hefner's are mixed in with yours somewhere??

Hi, I saw that you're researching the Hefner name. My gg grandfather and gg grandmother were both Hefner's. (They are second cousins once removed.) John Lafayette was born 1837 in TN and his wife, Nancy Elizabeth was born 1849 in AL. Wondering if we might have a connection.
