Hi Linda,
Thanks for the reply. I hadn't looked at the website closely enough to realize
it wasn't complete. I just know my line isn't there.
I wish I knew for sure which of Mrs. Stone's lines I'm trying to connect to. I
think I connect to the William Wests of Princess Anne County, VA. But I can't be
certain of that because I have found no positive proof that either of them
(William Sr. or William Jr. - it would probably have to be William Sr. based on
the age of William Jr. who died in 1744) had a son na
William PHILLIPS (b. 1728) was a son of Richard and Katherine (Smith)
Phillips, who were married in Spotsylvania Co., VA. He married, 1756,
Frances GREGORY, daughter of Richard and Agnes (West) Gregory. Descendants
of this couple resided in and near Louisa Co., VA and some settled in TN. I
would be interested in corresponding with anyone researching this couple.
Thank you.

Dan,
I do not know how I missed your message. So therefore I do not even have
your email address. I am very interested in your WEST and McCOY lines. I am
wondering if you have anything in your McCoy line on a Mary CRABTREE that
married JOHN HATFIELD.in Pike Co.Ky in 1849. I have been trying for years to
find someone that may have her parents names. Trying to go back further on
the CRABTREE line on her sister for about 21 years.
Also I am curious about your WEST line. I have a brick wall o
I am just startig to research the family of Andrew West so, I don't have
much to start with. I'm hoping someone on this list will recognize the
names. I hope to get dates and a specific location in NY soon.
Father: Andrew West
Mother: Anna (died sometime around the turn of the century)
Children: Eugene, John, Augustus (Gussie), Elsie, Theordore

I believe that the West Family Register is available on film through the
Family History Centers of the
Church of Latter Day Saints, Morman. Also, LB Stone's author's notes on
the book are also available
on film and contain some excellent information for the West researcher.
Check with any center for
availablity, which is generally ordered from Salt Lake, UT.
Hope this is of some help, Richard [West line out of Sussex Co, DE,
c1600-1700s]

Here's another option. Go to this URL
http://www.westfamilygenealogy.com/west/register.html . It's not my website, but
I think the entire book has been transcribed here for anyone who wants it, and
it's free.
As an aside, I think I tie into one of the lines Mrs. Stone has traced too, but I
can't figure out how yet. Good luck,
Paul West
Rosie,
Actually, I will be requesting a search on Monday for the census records.
Thanks for responding!

While Mrs. Stone's book is a great research tool, please remember that there
many errors in it.
Mrs. Stone did an outstanding job considering what information was available
to her at the time ( the 1920s).
I have copies of letters that she wrote to West researchers in SC, (where she
was doing research on my line) in which she admits to the errors and talks
about publishing a second addition of The Register, but she passed away
before she could.
I have a copy of The Register- I am willing to do look

I received several replies re: today's West-McCoy connection post. The
other party in the conversation was Danny West, Springfield VA. I
forwarded the msgs for him to him, and here's his email for those of you

While I didn't see any immediately recognizable hits to my post, I'd like
to thank all who replied, and wish you all the best of luck in your search.

still searching WEST, MCCOY, TEDFORD, and STIPE.
Hi, If you are new to this research, has anyone
recommened to you that you start with the 1900 census
records of New York. That will give you Husband and
wife and names of children. You can order the films
thru LDS (Mormon Library Branch) or on interlibrary loan
from a local library. Hope this helps. Rosie in In.
Hello fellow West Listers
Concerning the previous info on the De La Warrs. Are there any web

BIBLES.

Josiah West 1793 and his wife Martha Chester,
and their children are notated in the Bible. It also
contains the Parker line. Full information provided
in the listing on dates. Maybe helpful to family searchers.

Hello Fellow Listers,
I have a question and maybe it's been answered here before, if so, then please forgive my redundancy, but. . how did the "De La Warr's" become the WEST'S and why???
Thank you all,

Hello Cousins:
I have found James WEST in the 1820 Walton Co. GA
census. Living next door is Jonathan WEST.
Both James and Jonathan are listed in the 26-45 age
category. If this is my James, he was b abt 1786 in NC.
Jonathan looks like a possible brother of James in this census.
The eldest female in the household of Jonathan is 16-26, so
I am guessing that Jonathan may be younger than James.
Does anyone have a clue about either of these WEST's,
or any connection to Walton Co. GA WESTs? There
