OVER THE EDITOR'S DESK
We have received a letter with an item which deserves your immediate attention. The
Alabama Genealogical Society will hold a one-day seminar 3 Oct 1981 at Holiday InnMedical Center, Birmingham, AL. Mr. H. William Helmbold, speaker for the day, will
cover topics of interest to beginning, experienced, and professional genealogists.
For information, contact the Society, 1465 Panorama Dr., Birmingham, AL 35216.
Don Vincent, 936 No. Skyline Dr., Tacoma, WA 98406, has sent us news of a book now
in the making. BesiGes writing a genealogical column for the Pulaski County Democrat,
a newspaper in Waynesville, MO, Don is working to replace early records of Pulaski
County, which were destroyed by fire in 1903. Facts collected on all residents at
the time of the county's first census in 1840 form the basis of the book, but more
data are needed to make the history as complete as possible; therefore, he requests
our help. Many of the early settlers in Pulaski came from Tennessee counties, especially the Rhea-McMinn-Roane-Blount-Monroe area. Large numbers came from North
Carolina, Kentucky and Virginia, but most states in the south and mid-west were also
represented. If you have lost an ancestor in Missouri about 1840, you may find him
in the Pulaski County 1840 Index, which you may purchase by sending $5.00 to Don at
the above address. We wish him well with his project!
In our last issue we outlined some of the history and current operation of the Tennessee Genealogical Society. Now, we list ,for you the services of this society:

Meyer. 1981. HardBack. 2339 pp. Order from GALE RESEARCH CO., Book Tower,
Detroit, Michigan 48226. Three Volume Set. $225.00.
(
Over 480,000 names of immigrants, taken from 330 published sources. such as book~,
WPA records, genealogical and historical quarterlies, histories, bulletins, ship
passenger lists and naturalization records are included in these three volumes with
names arranged alphabetically, three columns to a page. This work has an additional
26 pages of source material and instructions.
These people from various countries migrated to North America (including Canada)
and the West Indies during the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries. Each listing consists of full name of the immigrant, age when known, port of entry, year of arrival
and the source and page from which it has been taken. Members of a family are
grouped together, and where a wife's maiden name is given, she is listed under that
name as well as her married name. You may find your ancestor in more than one place
if he is listed in more than one book.
Lists include freemen, indentured servants, Jews, planters, prisoners, Palatine
immigrants, convicts, rebels, recruits, protestants, persons of quality, religious
exiles, Quakers, apprentices, children stolen, maidens pressed, serving men sold
for a term of years, etc: persons from all walks of life. Sources of this compilation often give the country from which they emigrated.
It is much easier to search these volumes than the many passenger lists. previously
printed. Genealogists will find them invaluable and libraries will find them well
used.

This 8~ x 7 inch book contains more concrete instruction on Tennessee than many a
tome of verbosity. The publication has four divisions: TENNESSEE BACKGROUND, (history & geography, etc.); TYPES OF RECORDS, (a discussion of 31 categories to search);
RECORD LOCATION, (the places to search); and COUNTY LISTINGS, (alphabetical list of
counties & their available records). There are maps illustrating the geography, rivers, early settlements and roads, and individual counties. Also included are lists
of publications on the various categories-i.e., biographies, census indexes, church
records, genealogical compilations, current periodicals, etc. This is an excellent
text book for beginners in genealogy and a concise check list for veterans in the
field.

Hard back. 667 pp. Indexed. Order from Southern Historical Press, P.O. Box 738,
Easley, SC 29640. $40.00.
Kentucky furnished many men who rose to prominence within her boundaries, and also
within surrounding states. This volume includes over 1100 sketches of the people
who made Kentucky--early pioneers and their successors up to the twentieth century.
The writers went directly to the people to get their story, and many of the names
given here were not included in similar earlier editions. The 10,000 name index
(new material added to this printing) will be welcomed by researchers.
TO HOPE, TO LABOR, AND SO TO LIVE - Descendants of John.Mack (1740-1814) With Some
Allied Families by Mary P. Engels. 1980. Hard back. 179 pp. Indexed. order from

$21.00.
AR res. add tax.
Although the larger portion of this book deals with John Mack (1740-1814), the first
part gives lineage of his wife, a son's wife and a grandson's wife. These allied
lines are Burnett, Wilson, and Hudson-Reese-Brevard-McNitt. John Mack, born 1740 in
Scotland, immigrated to Maryland and resided at different times in Somerset, Cecil
and Baltimore counties. In 1766 he married Sarah Burnett in Prince Edward Co., VA.
They moved to Pittsylvania Co., VA in 1772 where records show he purchased land and
was paid for service in the Rev. War. Later records place him and his sons in Davidson and Maury counties, TN. He and Sarah are buried in the family cemetery near
McCains, TN. Descendants are found in several counties of TN, AR, MO and TX.
Sixty-four pages of family group sheets complete the book~

Genealogical Books in Print, 6818 Lois Dr., Springfield,
1981.
Termed by someone as a "wish book" for genealogists, this is truly a fine publication. It consists of a listing of works on all areas of research, including states,
counties, and family genealogies. The price and vendor's address are included for
every book listed, as well as the name of at least one professional researcher with
area of search indicated. A section on maps, atlases, and gazetteers is very helpful, as is ordering information for census forms and family sheets on which to record your data. Mrs. Schreiner-Yantis has used her vast experience to compile an
essential tool for the serious genealogists. It belongs in everyone's personal
library.
PERSONAL NAME INDEX TO THE 1856 CITY DIRECTORIES OF IOWA by Elsie L. Sopp.

1980.
Order from Gale Research Company, Book Tower,
This volume 13 in the Gale Genealogy and Local History Series was prepared to provide genealogists and historians with a statewide index for Iowa. It was felt that
an index was needed for the period of the 1850's following the 1850 federal census
schedule. The names listed are from the mid-1850 city directories of seven counties in-Iowa and three cities in Illinois~ Many Westerners find that their ancestors settled, rested, or traveled through Iowa's rolling hills in their westward
migration.

MARRIAGE AND DEATH NOTICES, Marion County, Texas and Environs 1853-1927 by Juanita
Davis Cawthon. 1980. Soft back. 160 pp. Indexed. Order from the author, 844
Ack1en St., Shreveport, LA 71104. $16.50.
Marion County, Texas was formed from Cass County in 1860 so that much information
found in this book is from both counties. The material is extracted primarily
from Jefferson, TX newspapers, but notices from nearby areas which could be of interest to local people are included. Other newspapers used are The Texas Republican and Tri Weekly Herald of Marshall, Texas; The Southwestern, Shreveport, LA;
The New Orleans Christian Advocate and the Texas Christian Advocate. Frequent reference has been made to Cemetery Records of Marion County, Texas, compiled by
Martha McCraw Chapter DAR and that information is inserted in the proper place.
The first twenty pages carry 19th century dates and next 105 pages dated since 1900.
ABBEVILLE DISTRICT, SOUTH CAROLINA MARRIAGES, 1777-1852. Editor: The Rev. S. Emmett
Lucas, Jr. 1979 •. Soft back. 69 pp. Order from The Southern Historical Press, P.O.
Box 738, Easley, SC 29640. $12.50.
(
No marriages were recorded in South Carolina until after 1900 therefore, marriage
records must be ferreted from other sources. These records were taken from Old
Abbeville Court House records and purport to be the closest thing to known marriages that exist for people listed in the Old 96 and Abbeville legal records for the
period 1777 to 1852. The names are taken from such things as wills, equi:ty records,
deeds, etc. The "key" to finding out more data about the parties concerned is the
book Abstracts of old 96 and Abbeville District, S.C. by Pauline Young. The publisher has tried to clear up many "confused areas" in this publication of the records
as originally compiled. He hopes the list of marriages will provide a start for
further search of old records.
MATHENY GENEALOGY by Dolores E. Matheny Gucciardo. 1980. Soft back. 192 pp. Indexed. Order from author, #14 Point South Court, Little Rock, AR 72211. $25.00 p.p.
The Matheny family immigrated to the American colonies from France and subsequently
spread out over many states. The first immigrant to the American colonies was Daniel
Mathenia I, ca 1638-1689, who married Sarah Wentworth in 1648. In so far as known
all the Mathenys are descended from Daniel & Sarah. Along with tracing her roots the
author has interspersed personal anecdotes about various members of the family. Also
included is a section on the Grinsley family and a separate index for the Matheny family. This is another concise compilation which is an asset to any family lineage
collection.
MARRIAGES OF RUTHERFORD COUNTY, TENNESSEE, 1804-1872. Compiled by Edythe Rucker
Whitley. 1981. Hard back. 352 pp. Indexed. Order from Genealogical Publishing Co.,
Inc., 111 Water St., Baltimore, MD 21202. $22.50.

Liberty, SC. These records were given to the Rev. S. Emmett Lucas, Jr. in 1968, and
have been prepared for publication by Mr. Wooley. This volume contains a va~iety of
abstracted documents on a varying number of persons of the same surname; for instance

st., Baltimore, MD 21202. $20.00.
Davidson County, created in 1783, originally included most of the territory west of
the Cumberland Mountains now making up Middle Tennessee. It is an area once heavily
traveled as a route of migration. All of the early marriage bonds and licenses were
destroyed by fire but the registers are intact, and the records published here have
been transcribed from these. There are 7,000 marriages included in this volume. The
marriages are arranged in order of their appearance in the original registers; one of
the early marriages of historical interest is that of Andrew Jackson to Rachel Donelson, 17 Jan 1794.

RANDOLPH COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA DEED ABSTRACTS.
BOOKS 1 thru 5, 1779-1794, Vol. 1
by Barbara Newson Grigg. 1981. Soft back. 108 pp.
Rt. 2, Box 458, Asheboro, NC 27203. $15.00.
Indexed.
Order from the author,
Randolph Co., NC was erected in 1779 from the southern part of Guilford Co. which in
turn was formed in 1771 from Orange Co. on the east and Rowan Co. on the west. The
'Revolutionary War, fire, and vermin have taken a heavy toll of records of the first
two years, but the Court Minutes for this period have survived. The 24 deeds recorded there have been abstracted and form the first two pages of this book. The
third page begins with Bk I, page 1 and records a State Grant to Wm. Cole on 19 Nov
1799. As was often the case in early times, many deeds were registered late and the
second entry is dated 29 Mar 1780, 300A granted to David Alexander. Many entries of
the 1780's follow, and there is at least one dated 17 Nov 1760, Jacob Evans to Jeffery Beck. This book is a gem for 18th century research in central NC.
MARRIAGES OF ROBERTSON COUNTY, TENNESSEE 1839-1861 by Edythe Rucker Whitley.

Baltimore, MD 21202. $15.00.
1981.
Order from Genealogical Publishing Co., 111 Water St.,
Robertson County, on the western flank of Sumner County, was made from old Tennessee
County in 1796, the year that Tennessee became a state. The early marriage records
of Robertson Co. have not survived, neither in the form of a register nor as unrecorded bonds, and the earliest extant records begin in 1839. The object of this book
is to preserve' marriage records that have survived within this time frame~ The marriages are arranged in chronological order under the surname of the groom. All names
are included in the index.

MARRIAGES OF SUMNER COUNTY, TENNESSEE, 1787-1838'.
Compiled by Edythe Rucker Whitley.
1981. Hard back. 150 pp. Indexed. Order from Genealogical Publishing Co., Inc.,
111 Water St., Baltimore, MD 21202. $15.00.
Sumner County was erected in 1786 when Tennessee was still a part of North Carolina.
The county was an important crossroads for migration from east to west and froDl KY
southward. The author states in her preface, "For some unknown reason the Clerk of
Sumner County did not record the early marriages in a book or ledger, as was the custom. The marriages listed here derive instead from original marriage bonds and unrecorded licenses found amongst loose papers in the courthouse in Gallatin. Some
original bonds had been lost or were taken from the courthouse before I made my original transcriptions in 1937." This is one of several new publications by Mrs.
Whitley which contain marriage information from middle Tennessee counties.

MARRIAGES OF MECKLENBURG COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA, 1783-1868. Compiled by Brent H. Holcomb. 1981. Hard back. 284 pp. Indexed. Order from Genealogical Publishing Co.,
Although Mecklenburg County was formed in 1763 from Anson County, the earliest surviving bond is dated 1783. The marriage bonds themselves are on file at the North
Carolina Archives in Raleigh. The abstracts in this book were made from micro-film
copies of both the bonds and the register kept from 1851-1867 by the Register of
Deeds in Mecklenburg County. The information is alphabetically arranged by the groom's
surname and gives the name of the bride, date of marriage bond, names of ministers,
witnesses, and bondsmen who are often related to the groom or bride. Approximately
5,000 marriage records are abstracted. Approximately 15,000 names are accounted for.

Wake was formed in 1771 from Cumberland, Johnston and Orange counties and has as its
county seat Raleigh. These records were transcribed from microfilm of the original
records. Each page of the original manuscript has been assigned a number which is
underscored. The numbers appearing by some of the underscored numbers are the page
numbers as they appeared in the original records. Court minutes are always a valuable source of information and to have them indexed is indeed a bonus. Surnames are
capitalized which makes it easy to find your person on the indicated page.

The author grew up in Calloway County, Kentucky but left there at the age of 22. Forty
three years later he returned to visit kin and the idea of a Thurman Family Reunion was
born. This event sparked interest in a family tree and the book began to take shape.
The family is traced from Halifax County, VA in 1815 through Robertson County, TN in
1841 and then to Calloway County, KY by 1856, but the author concedes "We have coneentratedon the known facts of the present ••• rather than of the past." He solicits the
aid of all who would like to add facts and further research. We are treated to family
charts, stories and pictures, and reprints of newspaper notices.

This book is a pot pourri of data gathered by the author and others on the Cosbys in
the Southern states. Forthcoming will be another volume on Cosbys in other states
and possibly a third volume on the western movement. Disproved is the assumption that
only one immigrant started the Cosby line in America, as several early immigrants have
surfaced, two of them before 1700. This collection of facts is taken from tax lists
of the late 1700's and early 1800's, wills and administrations, censuses, other publications, bible records and military records. Many different family groups are outlined. This is a gold mine for anyone with a Cosby line. The author welcomes
additional information.
CORRECTION:
1860 Federal Census Wayne County, Mississippi should be ordered from

1830 NEILL LETTER - Contributed by Mrs. C.L. Neill, Box 103, Pharr, TX 78577.
Can anyone help Mrs. Neill in identifying the ALEXANDER AND SALLY NEILL, authors of
this letter dated 14 Aug l830? It is addressed to William Neill, Lincoln Co., Sherrillsville Office, North Carolina. It probably came from Hardin, Henderson, McNairy
or Hardeman Counties, Tenn. and it is thought the author is a descendant of Andrew
Neill who was in Rowan Co., NC c1752 and died in Iredell Co~ c18lO. An Alexander
Neill and Evan SHOEMAKER were in the 1830 McNairy Co. Census. Mrs. Neill would like .
to know of any NEILL-CAVIN connection.
The letter reported to "Dear Sister and Friends" that they and their families were
all well, the settlement healthy, crops good except the late sowed wheat, "forred"
was good, that he had a good stock of horses but was unlucky on cows. Sally IRVIN
would have enoushcorn for this year and enough hogs to furnish meat. It reported
Shoemaker and Sally Irwins were well but that Shoemaker had not received a reply to
his letter written in March. On 19 May 1830 Limey Irvin married a man named NORRIS,
a tanner by trade who lived in tl.Bollouiver, Hardymon County" (Bolivar). Thoman KERR
was living in Savanna (sic). Noble was living with James Neill; Alexander was living where he was when William and Allison were here. Rosey was getting very fat and
Peggy would probably continue living there. Compliments were sent to John Neill,
Robert and Thomas ALLISON and their families, "coz. Gilbreth Neill and Matty", John
Cavin, Rabella Cavin, Samuel and Robert Cavin, and their !amilies.

THE MASTER SURNAME INDEX
The MASTER SURNAME INDEX contains thousands of cards represent~ng individuals found in the family
trees of our subscribers. Our file is, not restricted to any particular locality" b\lt covers families who lived in various European countries and in every state of the United States.
Subscribers may request information from this file by writing to the Tennessee Genealogical
Society, P. O. Box 12124, Memphis, TN 38112. They will receive information from four (4) surname cards and names & address~s of those working on the same surname. Please send a SELFADDRESSED, STAMPED ENVELOPE, and limit requests to one each three (3) weeks as this has proved
to be a poplar service and an effort is being made to expedite your replies.
WE DO NOT DO FAMILY
RESEARCH.O~Y
MEMBERS AND SUBSCRIBERS MAY USE THIS SERVICE.
You can help make this file more effective by sending us a 3x5 inch file card (no other size
will fit our files!) for EACH member of your family tree to be added to this Master Index. Cards,
should be typed or printed very plainly.
Please give the data listed on the sample card below in preparing your cards. Children should be
listed on the back. Each card should contain at least one date and one place, even if they are
estimated Ot guessed. This will enable us to determine that a perSOn who lived in one area in
the 17th century is a different person from one (with the same name) who lived in another area in
the 19th century. Please keep your address current with the Surname Index secretary; the index
is revised every five years and if you have not written in that time, your surname cards are
transferred to another file for use in the genealogical library.
