Albuquerque for a visit with Jeremy and Kara in March 2007, who was I to put off the inevitable? The grafts had taken, spring had arrived, and the sap was running. Readers, we are delighted to present to you the beginnings of our Gwin/Douglas connection! --John M. Gwin --

[John
M. Gwin NOTE: The
following 4.0--John/Emily Douglass family may or may not be that of our
5.0--Branch L. Douglas; however, when I searched the 1870 Virginia
census
for any Virginian of the right age with the given name of Branch, this
5.08--Branch L. Douglass was one
of a mere handful to appear. And the fact that he has the correct last
name (though
spelled with two esses)] convinces me that he is indeed our target.] [John
M. Gwin NOTE: On another note...
From: "Norman E. West" <nlwestattexhomadotnet> Date: August 25, 2007 To: <jmcdgwin@zianet.com> Subject: Southard connection This has nothing to do with your line, but... My great-great-grandfather was Elias Southard whom you have on your Douglas page in the census of 1870. His son Benjamin (who was between Emily J. and William F. who married Lucy A.) was my grandfather. It is interesting to me to find out her maiden name, possibly, and I agree with your findings, probably! Benjamin married and had a family in Virginia; however, his oldest son moved to Oklahoma when it was Indian Country, and Benjamin followed and died in Oklahoma and is buried at Ft Sill, Oklahoma. His wife refused to come to Oklahoma and is buried at Standardsville, VA. My husband and I raise wheat and cattle on my grandfather's land he got in 1903. This is all side-family-info, but your page was interesting to me, and I had to share. Louise Southard West]

I
believe this is our Shem, husband of Catherine and father of Amos. His
age fits and his location fits; further, how many Shem Heatwoles can
there be who match up like that? SO, IF this is he--and I'm convinced it is--we just
opened up another generation! By the way, Ancestry.com mistranscribed his
first name as "Shew". |

We
learn here that his first name is Shem. The names and ages of his
family confirm that this is Kara's ggg-grandfather. Finding him here
led us to him again in 1850 where we learn that his father's name is
Shem as well; therefore, we'll call this one Shem Junior and his father Shem Senior. |

This
is "Doug" Douglas' great-grandfather, mistranscribed as
"Amos Heatwole Chapinan" by Ancestry.com.
No wonder we couldn't find him! What I finally did was look at all the
Amoses (I left the last name box empty) in the entire census of Central
District in Rockingham Co., VA, and there he was. OK, that doesn't,
however, explain why I haven't been able to find any of his siblings or
parents, so I'll keep looking. |

She is listed first and as having the last name Heatwole, but I believe
that she is married to William Wise and that the child listed as his is
hers as well. |

Aha,

we'll discover his names in 1910, '20, or '30. |

Gabrel Heatwole | My
transcription is incomplete--there are 3 more people in this household,
whom I believe to be Gabriel's daughter and her family. Being two doors
down from Cathern, I feel quite strongly that they are related; perhaps
Gabriel and Cathern's deceased husband were brothers. |

Listed is this 22.05--Delilah Hartzell Early, 65 and b. in TN, widow of Mr. Early and mother of the head of this household, Martin L. Early, age 34 (a farmer with $3000 in real and $8000 in personal property), who is also listed with his wife Charlotte (30, nee unk.) and children: Samuel, 8; Delilah, 6; Sarah, 3; and Benj. F., 2. That leaves the Augusta Johnson, 24 (whom I believe to be one and the same as the 23.08--Delilah A.

Please note that I have listed census records here in two different formats. First are summary transcriptions of
copies of the original census records transcribed by Ancestry.com,
some of which may have been mistranscribed. Because I was in a hurry at
the time, I simply cut
and pasted them from Ancestry.com into
the places above where they best fit to at least get some of the data
(names and ages) onto this page.
Second are my own transcriptions,
below, of copies of the original census
pages. These include more data than simply the names and ages of the
parties as in the summary trancriptions. These are listed in charts
with this pale yellow background. While they take longer to
add, I believe they may be more valuable because of the additional
information.

Ancestry.com mistranscribed his
first name as "Abbas", so if you're trying to find the page from which
this was transcribed, type that in instead. This is the Abraham
Hartsell who appears above as #3.04--Abraham Hartsell, Jr. I am searching every page of the census of this district to see if other Hartsells appear. |

TN | Aha.
Two farms away is Joshua Hartsell, but his name does not
yet appear in the outline above. He is six years younger than Abraham
and may be a brother; however, while a brother six years younger does
appear in the outline, his name is Paul Anthony Hartsell. Let's
continue our search of the enumeration. |

William
and Margaret have 10 children living in the home, all of whom are
O'Dells but the three Hartsells--also listed separately below: Polly
H., 20; Isaac, 18; Henry, 15; Hannah, 13; William, 11; Nancy, 8; Sarah,
10; Elizabeth, 2; Isaac H., 3; George H., 1. |

Polly
Hartsell |

TN | I speculate that Polly is the oldest daughter of Wm. and Margaret, that she married a Hartsell and bore him these two sons, that he died and left her a widow and them fatherless, and that her parents took her back in to raise her little family under their roof. Who her husband would have been is unknown; however, one possiblity exists (in that he's about the right age and his date of death is unknown): 3.09--William T. Hartsell, b. ca. 1823; d. unk.; | |||||

possibly he's the namesake of Polly's oldest brother, listed here as 18. |

Thomas
Early |
53 |
m |
NC |
I'm
so glad I made this search! Here is a Thomas Early. I recognized the
last name immediately from our outline. Thomas' age indicates he was
born before the turn of the century, so he's of Delilah Hartsell's
generation, and sure enough, his wife is named Delilah! |

Her
age here is a little inconsistent with the information we have above
(the data I was given indicates she was born in about 1794). |

the
marriage date of Sam and Florence, it seems likely that Eliza may have
died from complications in Ina's birth.]

I have listed census records here in two different formats. First are summary transcriptions of
copies of the original census records transcribed by Ancestry.com,
some of which may have been mistranscribed. Because I was in a hurry at
the time, I simply cut
and pasted them from Ancestry.com immediately
below to at least get some of
the data
(names and ages) onto this page.
Second are my own transcriptions of
copies of the original census
pages. These include more data than simply the names and ages of the
parties as in the summary trancriptions. These are listed below the
summaries in charts with this pale yellow background. While they take
longer to
add, I believe they may be more valuable because of the additional
information.

It
appears that she

the household head, Riley, and wife of Riley's son-in-law, Harvey. Rosa
is Riley's
daughter, so if my earlier specualtion is correct (that Riley and Alida
are siblings) then Rosa and Harvey are first cousins, perhaps putting
Ella and Riley B. at risk for genetic deficiencies/defects. I hope
their descendants turned out well. |
|||
Ella G. Brown | wf |

It
appears that she
is actually the daughter of Harvey and Rosa, thus the granddaughter of the household
head. This
is H&R's firstborn (we believe); however, with no more children
showing for ten years, we may assume that several have died very young,
leading us to believe that others may even have preceded Ella in birth;
therefore, their marriage could have been even earlier than July 1869. |

I
decided to include this family because the last name, GREEN, is the
same as Lucretia's, residence #170 above, and he's also from NY. He could be a
grandson of Lucretia and thereby a first cousin to Harvey. On the other
hand, there are MANY in this census who were born in NY; in fact, it
looks like an entire trainload of Illinois settlers may have made a
mass exodus from NY together! Who knows--maybe they're ALL related... A quick scan search of this census has turned up another GREEN family--Jefferson, 50 (NY/NY/NY); wife Mary, 41 (IL/MA/MA); daughters Hettie A., 17, and Sarah M., 15; granddaughter Mollie Ovesen (Overen?), 1; an elderly Nelson couple (who are likely Mary's parents--MA/MA/MA). And living next door is an Overen/Oveson family--and on and on it seems to go! Are they all Brown relations? Another thought: the father of Sidney Brown's wife, Elizabeth Truelove Brown, is William Green Truelove. |

now that we see his last name, we can go back to Res/Fam #187 and see a
Hoover family--Isaac (a physician, 49), Hattie his wife, 37, and his

At
first I thought this might be the Leonard from the 1910 census, because
the bottom of the page was in shadow and mostly illegible (as shown by
the blanks at left). I'm fairly sure it says that Samuel's parents' POB
was England. This gave me hope that Melissa's POB might be England.
Then I barely made out that Melissa had 6 living children, so I turned
the page and saw that there were indeed three more kids. With
disappointment, I read for all of the girls that their mom was born in
Minnesota, not England. So that means that this is not our Leonard. |

I'm not at all sure
this is our John Clark Shaw. However,
considering what we may have learned in the 1930 census, this is the
only entry I've found that: 1. has him b. 1903 in OH, 2. has his father b. OH, and 3. has his mother b. England. Further, the location is on the way to California... And, if it is he, then we have his parents' names, ages, PsOB, even a brother, etc. |

Dorcas'
name, his initials, and the place of residence pretty much nail this
down as the right family. Granted,
they're not proof, but I'm convinced.
Therefore, I'll move forward, looking for John Clark Shaw, b. ca. 1903
in Ohio, with his dad b. OH and his mom b. in England. |

"An illustration of
sorts--and an engaging digression--brings to the
fore a recent hypothesis promulgated by N Brent Kennedy that Melungeons
are descended from Ottoman Turks. Evelyn McKinley Orr, a member of the
previously mentioned Melungeon Research Committee, wrote a few years
back that her Melungeon ancestor, David Goings (whom she discovered in
the fall of 1989) must have had Turkish ancestry because Norman Goings
of Selma, Indiana, wrote that in 1939 that "Tuckahoe" was the term used
by the family to describe itself. Somebody suggeted to Orr that
"Tuckahoe" was a "nicname for people from
Turkey." Orr stated that
David Goings married in Montgomery County, Virginia, and that his
wife's family were members of the New River German settlement."
"Tuckahoe" is not at all a misreading or mispronunciation of Turkish. Tuckaho unequivocally alludes to the Virginia origins of Goings. In "Tennessee Civil War Veterans questionnaires", George Washington Lewis of Lebanon, Tennessee, stated that his father Carroll Lewis was from James River in Virginia and that his grandfather Samuel Lewis was a colonel in the Continental Army during the Revolution. He commanded a "regiment of Tuckaho Indians." "Tuckaho" was once a widespread sobriquet for Virginians, especially those from east of the Blue Ridge. The term is derived from the Powhatan language and originally applied to several different roots, tubers, and fungi, some used by Indians for food, especially in the form of bread. Tuckaho was possibly consumed by poor Virginians of every color, for the word came to refer to Virginians generally. The Tuckaho Indian regiment mentioned by George Lewis was composed of foot soldiers from the piedmont counties of Albermarle, Fluvanna, Louisia, and so forth, and was but one of several Virginia regiments of Indian soldiers. Several reputed Tennessee Melungeons had been Revolutionary soldiers in piedmont Virginia before moving down to Newman Ridge. In fact, several mustered and served in the general region of the said Tuckaho Indian regiment. In the Tennessee Civil War Veterans questionnaires, George Lewis stated that the farm he grew up on near Lebanon, Tennessee, was worked before the Civil War by hired free Indian labor..." "The latest exotic-origins movment, favoring connections with Portuguese, Ottoman Turks, or possibly other Mediterraneans, has generated a peculiar following on the Internet--another virtual community. For such folks, Melungeons are a hot topic, as illustrated by five recently published books and the developement of the ad-hoc "Melungeon Research Committee" noted earlier in this essay. However, I suggest that the current movement is but the latest in a series of mid to late 20th century reinventions of the Melungeons. Unfortunately, while hypothetical "Off-shore Others" flood Appalachia and the word-wide web, real Melungeon histories and historic identities are being cast aside." CS Everett Appalachian Journal. I am suggesting that the controversy over the Melungeon ethnicity is motivation of some of these vigorous attempts to deny the well documented black and white African ancestry of the Mihil-Thomas Gowen line. The more adamant of those who have denied African, have actually traveled to Turkey with Mr. Kennedy and strongly support his opinions. While I have high regard for Brent's character, I strongly disagree with him on the Turkish origin of Melungeons. He and I continue to communicate frequently and have none of the rancor that is directed to me by some of his followers on this sub. Some of these so called exotic origins of Melungeons are coming under extreme academic fire, many of those theories will not survive scrutiny or time. We would be wise to keep that controversy separated from sound Gowen research to avoid being labeled as re-inventors of history. I rarely find anyone with the GRF objecting to Mihil and Thomas' Negro kinship who did not first have a strong opinion about the origin of the Melungeons. On the contrary, my article on the origin of the Melungeons was inspired from convincing documented archives of the GRF. This is how it should be. You should state your opinions without going into attack mode by talking about "speculation" etc. Let others make their decisions on the documentation. Genealogy, precisely documented, should drive the theory, not the other way around. Tim Hashaw Houston, Texas |
From a search of each of the 1900,
1910, 1920,
and 1930 U.S. Census data for "Rodney Gwin" Based
on these searches, it
appears to me that this Rodney R. Gwin is a
son of a Harry and Iva Gwin and that he moved away from home for some
reason by the time he was fifteen. He was born in Indiana, which is
where my Gwins were; however, he was living in central Indiana--Madison
Co., not the southern part--in
1900, north of where my family lived but very near where the "other"
Indiana Gwins lived. This is not conclusive, of course, for he
could have been born in the southern part of the state and only lived
in Madison Co. because he was boarding there. At this point, then, we
are pretty much forced to abandon this pursuit via census reports,
since there is no 1890 census available (it was burned), and try some
other route such as birth certificates, etc.

the Stogdills currently living in California according to Ancestry.com's

believe this to be our Dorcas, since there is no other Dorcas Dow to be
found of this age in the United States in 1880. However, the
enumerator failed to list her relationship to the head of the house, so
we're not real sure whether she's a daughter or a granddaughter
(perhaps a child of Rosa, for instance). She does name her firstborn
son Alvin D. Felker, making it very plausible that he is named for this
Alvin Dow; nevertheless, it is NOT clear whether this Alvin Dow is
Dorcas' son's father or grandfather; either is possible. If
the former, then Alvin Dow is in generation 24, but if the latter, then
he is in generation 25.00, and Rosa and some unknown person are Dorcas'
parents. Perhaps we will solve this mystery from another source. |

searched in 1850 Ohio for a William Henry Dodds b. ca.1836 in OH with a
brother two years younger named Joseph. This William's family seems to
fit that criteria. There's no proof of that yet, of course,
but there is enough data to make the possibility feasible and warrant
recording it here. We'll go next to the 1860 census and see if we can
find the family there. |

If

father, also William H. Dodds (Sr.). His parents are born in Ohio; he
married an Iowa girl whose parents were also b. in Iowa, so that must
mean that Wm. Sr. traveled from OH to IA, so we'll look for him in 1870

have no doubt this is our William H. Dodds, future husband of Leticia

here that his age is right, his parents' places of birth are right, his
father's name is the same (so they are Sr. and Jr.), and we learn that
his own name, Henry, gives it away as being a namesake for President
Harrison. |

This
could be the father of our William. This is the only William I could
find in 1850 in Macon Co. (there were quite a few others, but all were
in other counties). |

Actually,
I need to start at our William's last known census, 1880, and work
BACKWARD rather than starting in 1850 and guessing. I'll copy and paste
his 1880 census record from the James Page. |

This

why we couldn't find any of these in 1870. Probably I'll have to do a
search of the whole county; then maybe we'll find that Ancestry.com mistranscribed the
last name... |

she took her maiden name back after her husband died. Maybe we can find
out if we can find her again in 1900. Oh, I notice in this same census
that she is deaf and dumb. Hmm. I wonder if someone took advantage of
her disability. Or maybe it was a shotgun wedding, and he tried to get
out of it, getting the wrong end of the shotgun in the process, and she
really did end up being a widow. Speculation aboundeth. |

Are we kin to THE
Jesse James?
What does the evidence say so far? [Mike
Brown Note: The
James name enters on my grandmother Georgie Dodd's line. As
I mentioned previously, her mother is Littisha, or Letisha, Reynolds
(m. Dodds), who married Lee B. Brown in 1922. Littisha's parents
are
William Reynolds
and Mary A. James, married Feb
12, 1864, in
Macon Co.,
MO., and who came to CA, I believe, in the 1890's. Mary James'
death
certificate lists her birth as Nov. 22, 1845, and her death date is
June 22, 1918. Her father is listed as A. James and mother as
Ruth
Smith. In The 1850 census of District 22, Macon Co., MO., I found
an
Alfred James, age 45, and wife Ruth, age 45, and one of their children
is Mary A., age 10 (putting her birth year in 1840, not 1845 as
indicated on the death cert.). A brother
named
Hampton is on
the same census, and I found a Hampton James living in CA with Mary A.
and
husband William Reynolds in the 1900 census, so I'm fairly certain I
have the correct family. Beyond this, I'm not sure how to proceed
to
connect our family with the infamous outlaw. Kathy and I have
viewed the Jesse James family tree, and
none of us has found a
connection. But
it's compelling because Jesse (b.1847) and Mary
A. are
born in the same generation and in the same state, although different
counties. Perhaps distant cousins?]
[John M. Gwin Note: Mike, Kathy, and all,
I'm also looking at the two, and I can't see a connection yet, either. However, let's continue to add to the two lines side by side as you see immediately below, because (1) we have no knowledge yet of siblings or parents of Georgie's ancestor 3.0--Albert
James (husband of Ruth A. Smith),
and
(2) we have no assurance that our list of the children of Jesse's ancestors 3.0--William and Mary Hines James is complete; (3) we're not even sure that what we have as Jesse's line is accurate (see, for instance, the Editor's Note at the bottom of that column). For example, Georgie's ancestor 3.0--Albert COULD be (a) a nephew of Jesse's ancestor
1.0--William James (h/o Mary Hines),
(b) a grandson of this same 1.0--Wm. and Mary through an unlisted son older than 2.1--John M. James, or (c) another relation of which we've not yet thought. Don't give up yet! :-)] |

that the parents of our Mary A. James (who was born in 1845--according

My
guess is that this is a son of Alfred who had already married and moved
out of the house by 1850 and therefore doesn't appear there. The fact
that they are living next-door to his parents, Alfred and and Ruth, is
another huge clue. That he, like Hampton, is b. in KY settles it for me. |

family--nobody's aligns with the 1850 census but Hampton's! Since Mary
A.'s is now aligned with her birth certificate date, however, let's say
that the 1850 enumerator was bonkers and go with the 1860. Oh, I don't know, now! In 1870, his and Ruth's ages are listed as 65! |

Thomas COULD easily fit between Sally (b. 1833) and Abner (b. 1838)
without having to adjust much at all. He is born in Kentucky, however,
which is a little bit of a p;roblem, since Albert and Ruth left
there between 1830 and 1833, according to Sally's census record, and
moved to MO. |

This

why we couldn't find any of these in 1870. Probably I'll have to do a
search of the whole county; then maybe we'll find that Ancestry.com mistranscribed the
last name... |

wonder if she married a cousin to be still using the name James, or if
she took her maiden name back after her husband died. Maybe we can find
out if we can find her again in 1900. Oh, I notice in this same census
that she is deaf and dumb. Hmm. I wonder if someone took advantage of
her disability. Or maybe it was a shotgun wedding, and he tried to get
out of it, getting the wrong end of the shotgun in the process, and she
really did end up being a widow. Speculation aboundeth. |

This
is Mary A. James Reynolds' son as well, of course, so the three
granddaughters, above, are likely James' and Annie's daughters (they've
been marred 12 years, and the oldest is 11--that's a pretty good clue. Mike Brown read this and added the
following: "Incidently, the James A. Reynolds that was already
33 yrs. old in the 1900 census, I met as a little boy, when he was in
his 90's. We called him Uncle Alfred (his middle name). And
you are correct that the three girls are his and Annie's
daughter's. Addie was his care giver when I met him.
Littisha is not there with her family in 1900 because she was up north
getting married to William H. Dodds, Jr. I believe I have
their marriage date and place at home which I will forward to you." |
