I am searching for info on a William Coventree/Coventry:
Wm. Coventree is the surety bond in 1786, in the marriage agreement of
Richard Sinnet and Mary Cates, Benj.Harrison, was the Governor of Virginia at
the time their surety bond was posted in Virginia.
In Mercer County, Kentucky Richard Sinnett sold land to William Coventry Nov
30 1785, 1789. Richard renews twice. This info was taken from a little red
entry book for 1779-1814 Pg 39, 53 located in the Court house.
NOTE: PLEASE READ THIS MESSAGE IN ITS ENTIRITY!!!
This week's word is "Kentucky" :) What this means is in your line, if
you have found any ancestors (or maybe not, but with the surname of the
list) in Kentucky, post it to the list.
FOR NEWBIES: The way the "word of the week" works is I throw out a
topic and if someone has a line that falls into that topic, then they
are *supposed* to post it, unfortunately though, I think the majority of
the lists are lurkers, so not everyone really does. (I ha

Hi. Found another land entry for Wm. and this is what I was thinking of
when I said that KY land grants may be on line. So far, I haven't been
able to find them and frankly, I'm not even sure how I got this, but I
know I got it off line. Here it is:
Grantee: Coventry, William

I am looking for someone with info on William Coventry who lived in Mercer
County, Kentucky and leased land on Chaplin Fork area in 1785 and 1789. He
gave his surity bond in the marriage of Richard SENIT (SINNETT) and Mary CATES
on September 20, 1786 in Virginia.
This William COVENTRY's land changes hands between the two men. Richard
SINNETT leases or gives an option for William to buy the land in Nov. 1785.
Would like to correspond with anyone with an interest in either of these two
men. Candee

Hello everyone! I am in a great mood today (first time in a few weeks
too!)! Here is why:
I wrote a letter to my grandfather's brother in Charlotte, NC last
September or October. This family has some kind of fued between grandpa
and his brothers over some issue (I don't really know what it is about),
but the other side of the family had information that I was interested
in for my genealogy. I wrote a long letter telling all about me and my
side of the family since I've been born and how my parent
Hi lists. I have had quite a few people on these lists give multiple
subsciptions to the list when there is a lull in the posting....quit
it!:) hehe. Don't do that for a couple of reasons.
First off, it is unnecessary, If for some reason you were unsubbed, you
will get a notice from Rootsweb that you were. If you don't get a
notice, but you're not getting any mail from the lists, it's because no
one is posting and resubscribing will not solve that.
Second reason is because it is hard on the Roots
I am searching for the FINCH - TRETHEWEY- COVENTRY ancestors of my maternal
grandmother, Nina Florence Finch, b. 15 Dec. 1880 in Perham, Otter Trail
Co., MN. Her father was John Wesley Finch, b.c. 1839 possibly in Middlesex
Co., Eng. His father was supposedly Sir Percival Finch, and he supposedly
had a brother named Sir Oliver Finch, neither of which are listed in
various references to knights in England!
According to my grandmother's historical novel of the Finch family, the
Finches came from Glenhaven (
