A few days ago, there was a message on one of the pages, Breatitt or Lee,
about Joel Stamper and his wife Mary Jane. I can't remember which, so I'm
posting to both. While at the library this morning, I found a Joel Stamper
in the 1860 Breathitt Co. Ky. census.

Hi,
Ever wonder why your ancestors seem to have the same name? Generation
after generation, the same names! Here's a little tidbit I found that
might help explain it.
The Old Dutch naming pattern may give clues to the name of you ancestor.
The system was not always followed, but if one is stuck with a name, this
suggestion is worth a try.
1st son named for the father's father.
2nd son named for the mother's father.
3rd son named for father.
4th son for father's eldest brother.
1st daughter named fo

I am looking for information on the ancestors of Price MALONEY b. Sept.

both lived in Breathitt County. Price had several sons including Price
Jr, William Jess and Hobart. Price had a couple of brothers Dewitt and
Pierce. I believe the parents of Price were William MALONEY and Nancy
Marcum. Any information on this MALONEY line would be appreciated.

Hoping someone can help me with this. Archibald Crawford died in
Breathitt Co. KY in 1866. I had heard that Breathitt Co. records had
been destroyed so I had not look for his will. But in a book
"Remembering Lee County" by Bernice Calmes Caudill that I got, mentions
some contents of Archibald's will. I checked Breathitt Co. and there are
not any records for 1866. Does anybody have any ideas on what county
this will would be located in?

Sometime in the last few days someone had something in a message about
a 2 volume set of books about DEATONs. (Don't you just love it when
I'm so *precise* ?!? )
The real question is ..... Does ANYBODY know where someone could buy
a set of these books? If so, would you please post the information
to the list...Deaton researchers are online.
Thanks!

Hello, world!
With the recent problems with Maiser and all the confusion surrounding
I am totally confused about what I have and have not posted on the last
MT ECHO series we started. And to be totally honest, I just really do
not want to try to figure it out right now! My "figure-outter" is all
figured out after all that (plus 3 new counties!) except to figure out
that at this point it would be best to back up and punt!
Soooo...I'm just going to start a new series. We'll finish the other
one later!

Obviously, all of you know about the problem at Maiser....else you
wouldn't be here! Boy, it sure put my plans into overdrive...I have
now done things I had planned on doing a week from now. I think that
means I'm ahead of myself?!?
So everyone knows where we are and where we (hopefully!) are going I
want to bring everybody up-to-date on several things.
