Lord Macauley Dea r Membe rs : Our one-day Seminar on July 18, with Mr. Leon S. Hollingsworth, Genealogist and Historian cf DeKalb County, Georgia, was a great satisfaction to your president and board members. The attendance was gratifying and We do appreciate the support given us. We want to thank the Pi Kappa Alpha Fraternity for the generous loan of the rooms. Members were equally helpful in sharing the responsibility of making our seminar a success. Our thanks to Mr. S. Caya Phillips and his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Thomas L. Phillips, for the lovely buffet dinner complimenting Mr. and Mrs. Hollingsworth. We thoroughly enjoyed meeting Mr. and Mrs. Hollingsworth and found them delightful company. We look forward to a return visit from them in the future. By the way, our attendance was seventy four! We were overjoyed, but overwhelmed. We found everyone pleased with the speaker and the arrangements. In the future, we would appreciate your cooperation in sending your reservations earlier than the last week. We understand ~here are exceptions, but those last minute reservations cause concern about food and space. But, we do want a good turnout, so try to let us know as soon as possible. Please! We have started thinking about our fall plans and hope We can present programs both interesting and helpful. For Some time, We have been aware of the need of our neW members for doing research in the Library. We anticipate a tour of Cossitt-Goodwyn Library to familiarize researchers with the files, indexes and books. We also want to revive several useful ideas. We have had several request for assistance and advice on evaluating the materials collected through reSearch. Several of our experienced genealogists will make themselves available at future meetings to discuss, individually, the steps one can next make with regard to solving a problem. Please have your charts and data arranged so that a speedy evaluation can be made. We know this will prove helpful. In October, we will open our permanent headquarters at 2233 Madison Avenue. We voted in April to rent space where our properties can be centralized. Now, we are fortunate in having acquired a mid-town location that Seems to suit our every need. Our library and bulletin office will be stationed there, and We will continue the present schedule regarding time and dates for exchange of books. We have been grateful to Betty Moore for the loan of her lovely den this summer for this same uSe and purpose. In December, we do not have a scheduled meeting, but We are planning a festive House" in our new quarters. I~pen At this time, it might be well to remind our out-of-town members that the 1969 Surname Index has been printed and sells for $1.00. Also, that the fly-sheet listing contents and prices of all the back issues of "Ansearchin'" News was sent out in the first issue of 1970.

Fall 1970 -103- BOOK REVIEWS Reviewed by Jonathan Kennon Smith, C.G. GENEALOGICAL LINEAGE OF PRISCILLA JONES MACON LEIPER (Macon, Fitzhugh, Ashton, Washington Families), by Esther Agnes Leiper Shumaker. Harper Leiper Studio, Houston, Texas, 1969. 73 pages. Illus. Order from Mrs. Shumaker, 418 North Avalon, Memphis, Tennessee 38112. $14.50. Upon first opening this genealogy, one can readily discern that it is imminently a labor of love. The book represents untold hours of work, with its carefully and thoughtfully arranged lineages (graced with numerous illustrations). Mrs. Shumaker pays tribute to her mother's worthy ancestry, as well as she gives an account of the lady's lineal descendants and her own ascendants. She furnishes the lineages of many Virginia families, including the Ashtons, Ayletts, Battailes, Fitzhughs, Gerards, Ironmongers, Macons, Martiaux, Popes, Reades, Smiths, Tabbs, Tuckers, Warners, Washingtons and many others. The compiler has expended much effort in giving the evidences for her lineages as well as the patriotic services (very thorough) of her forebears and an engaging account of the Virginia Washingtons and their Sulgrave Manor heritage. The compiler has incorporated within the main corpus of the genealogy, the direct descents (through her mother) from Charlemagne, the numerous Magna Carta Barons, Knights of the Garter, and other European notables, including the medieval crusaders. Mrs. Shumaker expressed the sentiment regarding her labors, that '~ll efforts in compilation were prompted by the religious hope that the young might revere and build character in consideration and care, using the past as a foundation for the future." Reviewed by Herman L. Bogan AN ETYMOLOGICAL DICTIONARY OF FAMILY AND CHRISTIAN NAMES, by William Arthur (1857), 300 pages, hard cover, index. Re-published (1969) by Gale Research Company, Book Tower, Detroit, Michigan 48226. $9.50 •. This volume contains a comprehensive study of family and Christian names, which provides the semantic derivation of twenty seven hundred family names and five hundred Christian names secured from the English, Saxon, Dutch, Danish, German, Welch, Gaelic (Celtic), Cornish-English and other languages. The introduction is a documented essay which includes a concise history of surnames; treats biblical names and their significance; the early functions of names; sobriquets and nicknames; types of names (descriptive, local, official). Many cross-references are given which aid the reader in tracking down the various forms and corruptions of a particular name.

Emmett Lucas, Jr., (1959), 241 pages. Order from Georgia Genealogical Reprints, 405 Virginia Way, Vidalia, Georgia 30474. Paper cover $10.00 or hard cover $12.50. Another fine book has arrived from the workshop of the Reverend Silas Emmett Lucas, Jr., which can be epitomized by his statement, "It is my belief that, no matter how distantly related we are to each other, we should try to keep in closer contact and kindle the family relationship that we are a part of and so often neglect." The genealogy of these four families was secured from the records of marriages, births, deaths, correspondence, visits, tombstone inscriptions, Bible records and early census records. If a descendant or researcher does not find the person for whom he is looking in this book, it is possible that he may do so in the Supplement to The ~ory of the O?dson-Dotson Family of Southwest Virginia. Both books are of the " Ansearchin t" News -104- same superior workmanship which is characteristic of the author. DADE COUNTY PIONEERS, 1840 & 1850 Census, by Paul R. L. Vance, (1970), 94 pages, soft binder, index. Order from the author, Box 578, Marietta, Georgia 30060. $7.50. Dade County, Georgia was formed from Walker County on Christmas Day, 1837. The majority of the early settlers of the county came from East Tennessee after the removal of the Cherokees to Oklahoma. Lookout Mountain on the east, Sand Mountain on the west and the Tennessee River on the north made this an isolated community. The 1840 census was taken less than three years after the formation of the county. The author, to compensate for the inaccuracies inherent in census taking, has checked subsequent census records, as well as early court records, for clarification. Mr. Vance points with pride to his ancestors and those of his wife who were among the early settlers of Dade County. CHURCHYARD LITERATURE, by John Robert Kippax (1877), 213 pages, hard cover, index.

The location of the oldest United Methodist congregation in Texas, MCMahan's Chapel, near Bronson, was designated a denominational "landmark" by the United Methodist General Conference in May, 1970. It was named in 1833 for Samuel Doak McMahan, a Tennessean who had moved to Sabine County, Texas. The congregation was organized in September 1833, by the Rev. James Porter Stevenson, son of Rev. William Stevenson, who began his ministry in Middle Tennessee. He continued it in Southeast Missouri and was later founder of Methodism in Arkansas. He was the first Protestant preacher in Texas and one of the first in what is now Oklahoma. The son, James, preached in East Texas while he was pastor across the state line in Louisiana. Since it was against Mexican law to organize a Protestant church in Texas, Stevenson organized a Methodist "society." There have been three buildings on the site, and the church has continued its identity and work across the years. This church is now officially established as a "landmark" and an unofficial shrine. -116- "Ansearchin'" News OLD JONES CEMETERY Contributed by Mrs. Charles E.

(Editor.) In Cole's Antique Shop at Val Verde, Texas; between Alamo and Donna, Texas, I found a tombstone~ Mr. Cole received the tombstone unknowingly in a truckload of merchandise and being a most honorable man does not feel quite right about having someone's tombstone~ The stone is in excellent shape and is broken off neatly at the base. It reads: "In Memory of Frances E. Medearis, wife of John T. Medearis and daughter of Henry and Frances Dean. Born Mar. 28, 1833 in Bedford City, Tenn., Died Oct. 31, 1859 in Sevier City, Arkansas while moving to Texas. Age 26 yrs., 7 mos. and 3 days." Mrs. C. L. Neill, Box 103, Pharr, Texas 78577.
