Count ~ thank you so much Clare!
Clare has several sites where you may just pick up a clue about one of
your elusive ancestors
[I understand that many of the residents in these areas of MS came in
from the northeastern area of NC]
or enjoy a bit of the boating world :o) ~

NORTHAMPTON NEWS:
Subject: RE: Nichols kinship
Robert Miller wrote, "We just made a connection to William (or William
Coleman) Nichols 2 days
ago. A cousin completed a DNA test with a known descendant of William
(through his son Coleman Nichols). William was born about 1712, and died

before 1758. Although he resided in Nansemond County, VA, he owned 2
plantations in Northampton County. His descendants moved to Edgecombe,
Halifax, etc., and later to Anson, Cumberland, etc. They ended up
throughout
Tennessee, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, etc."
Please contact Robert if you are working on this family line and/or
would just like more information! []

One more note for Northampton: Most of the photo's and emblems located
on the Northampton pages are click through so that you can visit
interesting related sites. You might want to explore there when you
have a change to see if there is anything that you've missed on prior
visits. http://www.rootsweb.com/~ncnortha/



Hope that your week is off to a good start!
