Grandmother Matilda's Mount Morris. Leslie Tillett reminds, "The Pennsylvania Dutch (not Dutch at all, but German, the misnomer arising from the spelling and the anglicized pronunciation of 'Deutsch') are famous for their brightly colored and naively charming designs they applied to their objects of daily use- from their drinking glasses to their barns.". Investigating Wikitree which may prove to be a useful tool for us treesearchers! We also find a maybe clue left by family in the list of relations to J...

Friday, June 7, 2013. Sometime when she was in her sixties Grandma Betty found out she had Diabetes. It was late in life to be proactive about it, so she did the best she could to manage the symptoms and she and Lyle decided to move out West together. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Sunday, June 9, 2013. Hennerman, or Hinderman or Hinneman.Louise's last name. We sent a letter to a last known address to see if anybody in Louise's family would like to know about the Quilt. That was Betty's visit to West Virginia when she acquired the photographs of family gravestones there in the Core Cemetery. We finally got our West Virginia website pulled together. And we'll make sure the links are up to date throughout. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Pike to West Virginia.

Saturday, May 25, 2013. Grandma Betty's genealogical story is even more complicated than Pearl's. Really. She never was sure if her biological father was Glen or Ben Wilson, or Charles McVicker. She couldn't get the whole story out of her mother as to whether or not she really was a twin. Her first marriage to Grover Candy was "puppy love," that's what Sherry says. And Betty got married a lot. But she didn't have any children after her marriage with Paul Kughn. And then Pearl passed on, too. Betty was li...

http://grandmothermatildaskin.blogspot.com/2013/06/we-were-muddling-through-this-part-of.html
Grandmother Matilda's Mount Morris. We were muddling through this part of the family tree. First we needed to make sense of this information that Captain John Fox married his cousin Catharine. The information came from the Cornerstone Genealogical Society and it was some hefty clues. Henry Fox (born about 1832) married Clarissa (nee Long). Henry Fox's parents were.cousins. So Catharine's parents were Peter Fox and Mary Thomas. And Capt. John's parents were Joseph Fox and Jane "Jennie" Wilson. James FOX b...

Grandmother Matilda's Mount Morris: Welcome!
http://grandmothermatildaskin.blogspot.com/p/welcome.html
Grandmother Matilda's Mount Morris. Just north of "Mericle Run" . And over an imaginary line in the sand- the famous Mason-Dixon Line- is where our people would have conducted their lives and business in the 1700s and 1800's. On an elevation of land along Dunkard Creek and Wades Run is Mt. Morris. Mt Morris was a "major town" just north of Morgantown, West Virginia. It is just east of Blacksville (also West Virginia). A famous Turkey Foot Rock with petroglyphs? French supplies hidden in caves? Some of th...

Grandmother Matilda's Mount Morris. Soon the 1876 map of Whiteley Township right on the border with Perry Township there we have Grandma Pearl's childhood iconic Willow tree. By 1876 it is on the property of Dennis Fox, a child of Henry and Susannah (Dulaney) Fox. All of this we know from using Bates' History to compare the facts to Census records. And then 27/27 gives us John Fox, only twenty, and his wife Dorotha (19). With them are Jackson Rose and Colbern Whitlatch (ages 13, 9). This is not s...With ...
