SHEPPARD, PRUETT

I am seeking information on my great-great-great grandmother, EVELIN SHEPPARD PRUETT (b. 1837 d. 1939). She married WILLIAM M. PRUETT a well-know Baptist minister in Western North Carolina. Their known children were: AUGUSTA ELVIRA, ? (married Clark Jordan), HARRIETT, MARY, DEWITT, LOYD, WILLIAM, JOHN, and LUTHER. She is buried in Greenhill Cemetery in Waynesville. One of her daughter's obituary states that the daughter was born in Graham County, NC in 1868, so they must have lived there at one time. I have found a JAMES and LAVINIA SHEPPARD on the 1850 NC Rowan County Census who has a female child named EVELIND FRICK, who is the correct age. The spelling of Evelin (I instead of Y) makes me think this might possibly be her.

PRUETT'S obituary from the Waynesville Mountaineer states that he was "perhaps one of the best known preachers in this area. He baptized more than 3,000 people and helped build more than a score of churches during the many years of his ministry." I know he and his son-in-law MALCOLM RANDOLPH NATHANIEL CALDWELL held revivals together as I have some original revival posters. I have a lot of information on his descendants and would appreciate any correspondence with them. I would like to know about his parents/siblings/grandparents/etc.

These are my gr. gr. grandparents and this is the only place that I've seen the middle initial for Andrew and the middle name, Margaret, for Sarah.

ROGERS, THORNTON, WASHINGTON

Most of the ROGERS lines in Haywood County NC go back to HUGH ROGERS born ca 1761 and his wife NANCY THORNTON born ca 1764. Supposedly Nancy Thornton was the daughter of Lt. Col.

Other sources that I found on the net have that Augustine's dau. Jane died before Nancy Thornton would have been born. I need help proving/disproving this one way or another. Various of George Washington's documented families go back as far as the 1200s, so it would be fabulous if this rumor were true.

HISE

Albert would be 13 or 14 at the time, therefore he probably would not be listed as head of house on the Census.
