Looks like this could be my James B. Craig. Adair was Green, and Green was
Lincoln.
Check out the names Turk. We all know our families in the south had slaves.
Wonder which Turk's these belonged to.

Hi Pat,
Many thanks for the account of the unpleasantnesses following the Monmouth
Rebellion.
Have you ever seen or heard of any documentation of the story about our
Matthew the Rebel being incarcerated on the Isle of Man?

I asked a question on the Scotch-Irish list, and this is what i got. I
thought some of you might be interested. What I want to know is how did
Castle Peel, Isle of Mann get into the history of Matthew Campbell.

I wonder why those men gave permission for Nancy to get married when her
father James supposedly was still living until 1795. Any answer? She's
not William's daughter she is James and Elizabeth (Meek) Rhea's daughter.
does anyone have any further info on this?

I apolgize for the extraneous messages. I must have had my head
elsewhere when I sent the original message out.
The Facts as I know them
Henry Tolbert Rhea dob 6/17/1847 in TN? died 1904
wife Sarah Jane Sneed dob 10/20/1850 in ? died 1916
both are buried in Titus County texas
Henry purports to be the son of Joesph McIllwaine Rhea and Catherine
Kitty Myers......
Hoping to put this thing to rest once and for all. About 7 or 8 years ago I
got the EXACT same message regarding Mrs. Fields cookies. I know it was the
same because I kept a copy hoping to try the recipe some time (never did). I
got this Neiman-Marcus thing about two weeks ago on my e-mail at work.
Definitely a hoax.
Back to Rheas: In August there was a several-page essay on Samuel Rhea (1725)
that told about their journey to America and first several years. Can anyone
tell me the source of that material?
Found the following article at Ancestery Geneology. Appears article lists
immigrant ancestor Archibald Rhea.
"Scotch Irish Settlement in Virginia, Vol. 2, p 269"
Page 145--Wm. Patton, aged 64, deposes, in Rockbridge, 7th November, 1806, he
has lived in Rockbridge 56 years since last May. After the Revolution there
was a rapid increase of immigration from the North. James Wardlaw and
deponent's father were intimate. James had a son Hugh and a son Robert.
There were Indian troubles for about 10 years.

I would be interested in knowing more about this John and David Rhea,
Philadelphia merchants. My fourth great-grandfather, John Rhea, would have
matched this time frame and geographic area. Also, my third
great-grandfather, also John Rhea, named one of his sons David Smith Rhea.
John Rhea I was married to Mary Smith, and according to John Rhea II, was
living around Philadelphia in 1805. John Rhea II was a merchant, so it is
possible his father was a merchant also. I suppose I am just picking at
straw

I am researching the Rhea line. I have an old typed document with
Matthew and Catherine Myers as the parents and under William Preston
Rhea is Henry's name with a comment that "grandpa would have been 52
when Henry was born". Every record that I have indicates that Matthew
and Catherine had ten kids, yet I understand the Rheas tried to go for
eleven kids in the family? Census records should show Henry but the
Census records were burned in 90 and he might have been on there? I
havent seen any web lines
Hi,
I have a great deal of info to share on the Brunswick Co, Va family who
desend from John Ray died 1774 left a will naming children.
Also, looking for the final resting place of James Buchanan Ray who was
born in Marshall Co, KY in the 1850's married Mary maggie Nance moved to
Little Rock Arkansas. Mary died in there and he moved on to Texas and
died there in 1922. But I can't figure out where he moved to in Texas.
This is my g' g'pa.
thanks.
