QRYTEXT: I am wondering if anyone can look in the old White Co. newspapers to see if any mention is made of Elijah BRASIER. He lived until at least 1881 (he married his 4th wife that year). He was born in Hickman Co. TN in 1825 and lived in or around Emma Twp. since 1830. If those newspapers are at least available (1880-1900) I would appreciate at least knowing that. Thank You URL:

Peter and Mary Ann Holsapples' other children were: John Ford HOLSAPPLE, married Rhoda BARNETT Sarah Elizabeth HOLSAPPLE, married John Westley HARKRIDER Mary ANN HOLSAPPLE, married William TUCKER Laura HOLSAPPLE, never married I am searching for information on the Parents of, Peter Bainbridge Holsapple, and Sarah Elizabeth CALL. Sarah E. CALL, may have been raised by a GHOLSON family. Her Parents listed on her marriage record, were JOEL/JOSEPH CALL and Margaret BIGLEY. Does anyone have verification of this? The marriage record says Sarah, was born in Posey CO., IN. Sarahs' siblings were: William CALL, born about 1870, married May SANDERS John CALL, married Nellie CURTIS Anna CALL, married Oscar PULLUMS There may have also been a sister Francis CALL, born about 1857, in Posey Co., IN. I also need help desparetely, on verification of Peter Bainbridge HOLSAPPLES' father. Peter B., was born about 2 years before Mary DALTON, and Nicolas HOLSAPPLE, married in 1830, in Washington Co., IN.

NAME: Brenda GAINES
EMAIL: [email protected]< br> SURNAMES:
QRYTEXT: I�m Brenda GAINES b:1946 CA,
Dad was Paul Herbert GAINES b: Carmi, IL 1898,
his Dad Hilliard GAINES b:1869 White Co,IL
his dad John GAINES b:1827 Monroe Co., TN
the rest, ON JOHN�S SIDE, is guessing;
If we could find the immigrant Gaines, we could trace the line back to
King David and then of course to Adam, according to researcher Calvin Sutherd.
I looked through the reel of microfilm, 800 pages, �The Gaines family of
Colonial Virginia and their ancestors_, I couldn�t find a connection to
great great grandfather John Gaines.(Union soldier-Carmi,IL)
I am guessing, but I think that we are not from the VA group , I think
our Gaines started out �Gain_ in Maryland, Baltimore County, the next
generation moved to East TN, Washington County,_Gains_, the next
generation Monroe County, TN. then White Co.,IL and were �Gaines_.
John GAIN SR.B: ABT.1740

John GAIN Jr. b: abt 1765

Joshua GAINS b:Maryland abt 1790 (was in the war of 1812, on the
Washington County tax roles in 1819, the tax list of Monroe County in
1821, and the Monroe County TN census in 1830 and 1840 . He moved to
Talledeaga County, Alabama in 1850 at 63 yrs. no name of wife or children)
John GAINES b: 1827, Monroe County TN, might have been living with John
Henderson and wife Dorcus in 1850, married Tabitha Holderby in 1854 in
White county IL.
So what I�m thinking is Joshua Gaines was married to a HENDERSON;
In 1840 I checked the census for Henderson in Monroe County TN.
# ON CENSUS
#143 Henderson
#156 A. Henderson
#157 Joshua Gaines
#158 Robert Henderson
#159 Samuel Henderson
#162 Robert Henderson
#163 Joseph Henderson
#164 John S. Gaines
#168 Henderson
#170 Henderson
#186 Henderson
#187 John Henderson(was this who John Gains was living with in1850)?
#202 Henderson
#203 Henderson

It looks like the Gains and Henderson�s all lived together, and Henderson could be one of our family names.

Then on John Gaines� wife�s side;

I did find some marriage records that add another surname to the family list almost certainly, FELIX! and maybe ESTES!

Grandpa Hilliard Gaines�s mother was Tabitha HOLDERBY, she was the daughter of Nancy Jane HARVEY and Nathaniel HOLDERBY.

IN THE 1850 CENSUS in White County, IL, Nancy and Nathaniel have 2 old people living with them, Betsy Harvey b: VA 1774 and Samuel Felix b:VA 1779,

Liz burns ( another Holderby descendant) suggested that Betsy Harvey was Nancy�s mother and Samuel Felix was Betsy�s younger brother. I followed this lead and found the following info that leads me to believe that all these Harvey girls and one boy getting married in White county, IL are related, sisters and /or cousins.

I looked in the Kentucky records (That�s where Nathaniel Holderby and Nancy and Sussanah Harvey were born in the early 1800�s), I didn�t find anything.

I then went through all the marriage records in early Virginia counties, and I found the marriage records in Orange Co., VA, there was a HARVEY marrying a FELIX, bingo.

So I think Nancy Jane Harvey�s mother was Elizabeth FELIX and her father was John HARVEY.

The names �Nancy_ and �Sussanah_ and �Sarah or Sally_ are Harvey names.

Tabitha Holderby and John GAines named one of their children �Sarah_ and one �Lucy_. Lucy ESTES married to John Harvey could have been Tabitha�s grandmother.

So �ESTES_ might be another family name.

I made these guesses based on these records....

QRYTEXT: I am seeking information on my gggrandmother, America CRAVENS, her parents, and sibblings. America was born 23 Oct 1827 and married Jerimiah B. HAILE, 19 Mar 1848, in Hamilton Co., IL. The only sibblings found in my Grandmother's Bible were, Henry, Prudence Olive, and Emily. Grandmother had a "?" for more sibblings and 'names not known' and all the children were born in TN. Both America and Jerimiah died in Wayne Co., IL in 1877 and in the family Bibles state they were buried in the 'family cemetary in Grayville, IL'. I am looking for any information on this cemetary. Emily married Ewing YOUNG in Hamilton Co., IL on 16 Dec 1841 and they lived in Wayne Co., IL. In the book of 'The History of Wayne Co., IL', it stated that Emily was the daughter of Robert CRAVENS and he lived in White Co., IL. Appreciate any information on this CRAVENS line. Thanks! Dianna
