Comments: I don't know what happened but I wrote a lot here and when I went to BACk it was gone. I am interested in receiving the July 99 Newsletter in my e-mail. I am researching my Whitson line. I am a direct decendent of Henry Whitson. My Grandfather was Owen Brown Whitson. My line is: HENRY,THOMAS,DAVID,SOLOMON,WILLIS,JESSE,OWEN,JULIA(My mother who is 97 and alive) I have information on my living relatives)I also have information on Owen B. Whitson when he lived in Yakima, WA and I have pictures of Owen & Jesse with wives. Robbie Barnette contacted me through the Rootsweb Whitson L which I am on. I would like to join the Whitson Family Club and the Chat Room. Tell me how? I am novice on computers so I don't know what a URL or what my Homebase is so I left them blank. I guess I am another one of those "Cuzin's". Please keep in touch. Thanks, Jeanette (Jan)

Comments: I descen from Jesse Nelson born January 22, 1756 son of Sarah Whitson and John Nelson. Jesse went to Cocke County TN and raised his family and then went on to Lafayeytte MO about 1818. Jesse died and his whold family came to LAfayette with their families or they married there. Jesses son Geroge Stephen Nelson came to Oregon on the Oregon Trail in 1844 where he founded LAfayette, Yamhill County, Oregon. Anna Stephen Nelson wife of Jesse died in Lafaytete Mo abt 1860. I have an extensive Nelson data base and am happy to add your data. I have som ewhitson material and am studying the Big Pigeon River Baptist Church in Cocke County Tn where Jesse bought land form his Uncle William and Elizabeth Whitson. I am trying to prove Jesse involvment in the Revolution, as his brother John served and so did his father John Sr.

Comments: Hi! My maiden name is Whitson, and I'm just getting interested in finding out more about my heritage. Here's what I know, which isn't much: My great-grandfather is Edward Graves Whitson, born 9/20/1883, probably in Arkansas. His kids: Paul Graves Whitson, Pearl, Edna Belle, and Charles Aden Whitson (my grandfather), who was born 11/01/1907 in McCloud, Indian Territory. Does this ring any bells with anyone?

Comments: My g-g-great grandfather, Alexander C. WOOD (born in NY in 1800) married Harriett WHITSON (born in PA), in Trenton, New Jersey, in 1832. They settled in Chesterfield Twp., Burlington Co., New Jersey. That is all I know about Harriett. Harriett and Alex's son, James A. WOOD (born 1833 in NJ), married Sarah MERRICK (born 1835 in PA). Sarah was the daughter of James MERRICK and Keziah WHITSON, daughter of Burt WHITSON, who was deceased when James and Keziah married in 1828, in Newtown, Bucks Co., PA. Looking for information regarding Harriett WHITSON and Keziah WHITSON. I believe Burt, son of Thomas III WHITSON, who married Hannah EGAN, is Keziah's father. Also, James MERRICK and Keziah WHITSON had another daughter, Fanny, who married George W. WOOD, brother of James A. WOOD, her sister's husband.

Comments: I'm rather new at this stuff ( started just a little over a year ago), and I spend a lot of time searching on the Internet for information. I'm very happy to find Home Pages like this. They really help in connecting family lines. I am currently researching WOOD, MERRICK, TWINING, WHITSON and ADCOCK. I've gathered a lot of information on these names, but I still have to sort a lot of it out and make those critical connections. Your page has given me a couple of clues to proceed with, and I hope I can make a connection with someone who may be working in line with my people. I'll happily share whatever I have on my surnames. Maybe it's time I think about getting a Home Page of my own. Thank you, one and all. -- Carol
