1. Re: LOWER-DELMARVA-ROOTS-D Digest V99 #9 [1]
Having read within this mailing list some scholorly thoughts on the boundries and identifications of various hundreds in lower Delaware and Worcester, and Somerset Cos, MD, I'm chancing that someone will be able to address the following. The research on my West heritage seems to center within the property identified as West(s) Recovery, Delaware Hundred, Sussex Co, DE. The best I can identify the area known as West(s) Recovery is on the southern shore of Indian River and and on the east side of Blackwate
2. Annamessex Hundred [1]
Dear Tom and other Rooters, I too would like to know more about Annamessex Hundred. Is there a map? Is there a book that tells about it? I was doing some research yesterday and came across one person listed as living in "Little Annamessex" and another living in Annamessex Hundred. Are they the same? Did this area become Worcester County when it was created ? Thanks! Sincerely, Bobbie Redden Leamer

14. Fishers of DE [0.979564]
I've gotten into a nice puzzle with the Fisher family of PA/DE, which doesn't appear to have any relationship to the one in NH/ACC. The fun part is a book written in 1896 which has it's good and bad points - some of it's right and some of it's wrong. I've managed to put some of the pieces together with information from other sources-once that's done, it makes a lot more sense. Because of size, I've had to trim out a lot of narrative and cites (if you want the text, let me know & I'll send as an attachment t
15. DO YOU KNOW? Smith, Aydelott [0.979564]
I have been told that the AYDELOTT name abounds in Delaware. Does anyone have a connection to Henry SMITH married to Nancy AYDELOTT in their line? They produced a son, Henry Aydelott SMITH, born in Sussex Co., DE in 1800. He married Elizabeth HINKLE in Hamilton Co., Ohio in 1820. I know nothing about Henry SMITH and know only that the Aydelotts were French Huguenots. Could someone tell me the correct pronunciation of the Aydelott name? Does anyone know about the Aydelott Newsletters, where they are loc

18. RE: Map of Maryland [0.979564]
Michael: The best thing I have found is the " Maryland-Delaware Atlas & Gazetteer" by DeLorme Mapping. It is a paperback booklet in an oversized format with "detailed topographic maps, back roads, and outdoor recreation." You can get it for about $16.95 at most of the local chain book stores and even some convenience stores. I believe Amazon.com sells it as well but you might not get it in time. I use this exact Atlas with my old maps to try and project myself back in time when I'm out huntin' around!

Folks: I'm writing in the guise of both my public (Nabb Center) and private personas. Recently I've been inundated with e-mail (both work and personal) and now am overloaded trying to respond. Mike Hitch, I know I owe you a response and you are at the head of the list. Thanks to all who wrote with kind words on my boundary commentary.

Hi Rooters, I have asked before with no luck; however, I just saw TOADVINE and wondered if anyone knows anything about my Eleanor/Nellie Toadvine, born 11/10/1820 to Elijah Toadvine and Esther Pollitt in Worcester County. On 1/6/1837 she married David J. Hayman, who was born 11/26/1808 to Handy Hayman and Polly Brown in Worchester County. David and Nellie had 6 children: Mary A., James Hargus, Josephus Handy, Emily F., Hester J., and Elijah Handy C. Hayman (my great grandfather). David died 7/9/1873 an
25. Re: Methodists [0.979564]
I believe the best book on the subject of Methodism on the shore is "The Garden of American Methodism: The Delmarva Peninsula 1769-1820" by William H. Williams. It is available in local bookstores. Asbury's diary is a wonderful source of names for those connected with the birth of the church. It is available at Barratt's Chapel and, I believe, at the Hist. Soc of De lib in Wilmington., among other places. In a nutshell, the peninsula's economy was awful before the Revolution, drunkeness was the favorite
