I'm looking for family of the Washington,Rice and Varn . My great great grandmother name was Charity Varn from South Carolina,she got married to Jonas Rice and had my great grand mother Fannie Rice,whom she later married Richard Washington.

I am brand new to this website and so am a little confused about who is responsible for the group called "Fayetteville Families".  I have researched the Lewis Barge family from Fayetteville for many years, but have never before seen the claim that Lewis Barge's second wife, Christiana, was Christiana "Schaumberger".  Many, many descendants have spent much time trying to determine her maident name, only to hit a dead end.  Even Oliver Weaver, who wrote an excellent book about the Barges,…

I am researching family who emigrated to Iowa, USA. My G Grandfather, Charles, returned to England around 1895, but others stayed. I have some census information, but would like to hear from anyone who can help or is researching the same line.

I am looking for "A needle in a haystack" ~ William J. STEPHENS. He was born February 12, 1850 in Illinois. In the 1860 census he is living with William A. VAUGHN in Henderson County, Illinois. He married Anna RUSSELL on February 13, 1870 in Illinois. William, Anna, & children are listed in the 1880 Census in Henderson County, Illinois. In the 1900 Census Anna and a few…

The above family names are some of the ones I am researching.  I would love to hear from anyone researching them.

     I have been searching for this fellow but with such a common name and not knowing what the "M" stands for I have encountered few results.  I also do not know his DOB but would guess his age 65+.  In 1973/74 possibly longer, he worked in Puerto Rico outside San Juan at a tobacco plant that I think is/was owned by R J Reynolds or subsidiary out of NC.

He was divorced with 2 kids named Diane and Scott. They are surely grown with kids of their own by now.  I did post…

So those of you who read my blog posts on the extremely rare occasion that I post them probably know that my great grandma and grandpa Boone were supposed to have something shipped over on the Titanic but for whatever reason wasn't which prompted a family trip to Belgium. Well recently I was doing some reading on the Titanic and I discovered that there were HOYT's on board the ship! William Fisher Hoyt and Frederick Hoyt and his wife. As far as I can tell William and Frederick are distant…
