FAMILY HISTORY LIBRARY

--- NEW YORK CITY DIRECTORY/ COMMERCIAL REGISTRY

The second set of indefinite loan microfilms is the New York -- City Directory1 Commercial Registry. The first film is for 1861. There are seven r o l l s of film in this collection, with 1881 being the last year covered.

The preface of the 1861 directory contains an interesting account of the history of the directory and of the enormous task of canvassing the residences to obtain the information. The 1861 directory contains 150,303 names! Also bogus canvassers often preceded the off.icia1 canvassers and took money from residents for the promise of a special listing in the directory.

Some issues have good maps of New York City. All issues con- tain advertisements. It is interesting to note the types of ads in the 1860's versus the 1880's. There was an index to the commercial registry. For example, if you needed "bird cages" in 1861, you checked page 5, "mourning goods", page 41 and "pickles", page 48.

These microfilms can be accessed by using the Locality Catalog microfiche and looking for NEW YORK, NEW YORK, (CITY), DIRECTORY.

FAMILY LAND HERITAGE PROGRAM

Each year since 1974 the Texas Department of Agriculture has recognized families who have operated a farm or ranch on the same land continuously for at least a hundred years. Brief histories of the award-winning families, naming the successive' land owners and their children and grouped under the respective county name, are published annually.

Since the attractive volumes (which include many heirloom pictures) have the names of only the current land owners in their indexes, AGS Quarterly is attempting to remedy that deficiency, as space permits. Instead of page num- bers, we group the names by their counties (which cover only a few pages each, and are in alphabetical order), assuming that researchers will want to read all about their ancestors' neighboring relatives and friends.

Apologies are offered if some surnames are wrong - sometimes the narratives are hard to interpret: as to generations - whether Tom, Dick and Mary are the children of the founder or of his daughter. And, since these books use parentheses to indicate maiden name, nickname, previous married name, or future married name it is sometimes impossible to determine just what is meant.

In AGS Quarterly, the usual genealogical practice is followed: Plaiden names in parentheses. If a maiden name is unknown, we put three dots in parentheses; nicknames are in quotation marks; editorial suggestions in brackets; '!pic" indi- cates that there is a picture of family members or buildings on the given page. 0

Since Volume 10 covers two years, on page 99 the county names start over for 1985. name in both years, so if you don' t find your ancestors in the first section of Hamilton County, look in the later one, when consulting the book.

To save space, we have alphabetized together the honorees with the same sur-

The Wandolphs of Virginia. By Robert lsham Randolph of Chicago (Privately printed, ca.1930 Pp.404. Introduction, index)

The Virginia Cays by Fairfax Harrison (The DeVinne Press, 1919. Pp. xx>( +194. Introduction, illus., index, supplements)

Earlier this century, exceptional genealogies were compiled on the Randolphs and Carys, two of the more dynastic families of Virginia if not the United States. These families numbered in their ranks some of the most noteworthy 18th & 19th century Americans, among them Thomas Jefferson, Robert Edward Lee, Edmund & John Randolph and John Marshall, as well as persons of more modest accomplishments and the expected number of rascals.

Virginia genealogy may be somewhat bewildering, even to the seasoned genealogist. The Randolphs (surname pronounced "RANduff') and the Carys tended to marry among themselves, each other, and a select number of other patrician Virginia families. Marriages among cousins were quite common, and names were frequently reused. The Randolph & Cay books are quite helpful in untieing the Gordian Knot of Virginia's first fami I ies.

The two books, now well over half a century old, are still quite useful. The works take somewhat different approaches. The Randolphs of Virginia follows basically just the pedigree - births, marriages and deaths - of descendents of William Randolph of Turkey Island (1651- 171 1) in both the male and female lines. One yearns for further biographical and bibliographical data. Many male family members, for instance, were known almost universally by their plantation or city of residence, such as John Randolph of Roanoke,%e omission of the geographic portion of their monikers is particularly regrettable and rather surprising, as the author pointedly calls himself Richard lsham Randolph of Chicago. But perhaps such information is unrealistic, considering the staggering number of family members referenced.

B)

The Virginia C a y s is a more traditional family histoy, charting the accomplishments, genealogical basics, and residences of the descendents in the male line of Miles Cary (1622-1667) of Windmill Point. Photographs of family portraits are of interest, although maps are not in evidence. Author Harrison, the son and husband of Carys, chides as pure larceny by printed asserlion those descended from unrelated Carys who suggest kinship with Miles; yet his own hint of a relationship between his clan and the Viscounts Falkland an3 the Lord Hunsdon who married May Boleyn is curiously undocumented.

Both books are helpful and accurate as far as they go, but, as expected when attempting to document thousands of descendents, whole lines may be uncharted, particularly in the instances of who left the Old Dominion for the provinces. Photo- copies of both books are now on file at the Texas State Library Genealogy Library.

RECORDS OF IMMANUEL LUI" CHURCH, Wiedeville, Washington County, Texas. Volume 11. Translated and Published bv Dr. Edward C, Breitenkamp and Dr. Jack Autrey Dabbs, at Bryan and Austin, Texas, 1991. 260 pp; full-name index; table of contents.

Hardbound, ca 8% x 11"; iv +

This second volume of the records of Immanuel Lutheran Church translated by D r . Breitenkamp and Dr. Dabbs (a valued member of Austin Genealogical Society) contains the minutes of Congregational Meetings 1881-1936, followed by records of the Women's Aid Society 1910-1945 and many lists of names in various cate- gories

Constitution, the Sunday School, Home Missions Union, subscribers to church papers, congregational pldeges, lists of communicants (some with the number of children), lists of those who performed their duty of excavating graves, etc.

In this beautifully typed book with generous margins, the composers have rendered further assistance to the reader by setting in boldface all proper names occurring in the minutes of the congregational meetings.

The sternly just character of these pioneer members of Imnuel Lutheran Church at Wiedeville is revealed in a resolution they passed in 1880: ' ' o o o such members who refuse to contribute to the [new] building costs and therefore with- draw or resign, are not to be accepted again elsewhere unless, as restitution, they contribute subsequently twice as much as the other members to the building costs, according to their status (farm owners or renters)."

A three-page Memorandum" synopsizes the history of this congregation from late 1869 to November 1881. In 1869, "the congregation consisted of the following members: 1 Christian Wide, 2 H e i n r i c h Wide, 3 Fro kemer, 4 H. Harnes, 5 Joho Geick, 6 Fkiedr, W i e s e , 7 Friedr. Wullze, 8 &go Frank, 9 F'riedro &tins, 10 F. Redecker, 11 Joh. Wide." [No mention of wives or children] The admission of new members (male) was reported in the minutes.

In the early 1.900s the church fell on hard times: financial deficits, congregational meetings adjourned for lack of a quorum, failure of members to show up on congregational workdays, default on their pledges by some members, the need for repairs on the church's property. to the Wiedeville School District.

Several newspaper articles about the 50th anniversary of hanuel Lutheran Church in 1921 are quoted. Of special interest to genealogists are four pages setting forth the names of members who signed on the first of January 1903, showing when they joined the congregation and when they left. Afterwards, there is less information about each signer, but there are many tables of names elsewhere.

The minutes of the Women's Aid Society are also interesting, especially the meticulously detailed expenditures: 26 cents for two cans of stove polish; $1.65 ostage for a box of clothing to New Guinea; $5 (donated by six peo le) for the 'Round Rock electric iron"; $1 for cleaning velvet [church hangings 9 ; $1.28 for 16 dozen paper plates.

MORE MUSINGS ABOUT NAMES Did you ever wonder what ghastly tragedy inspired the name Kilbride? And why

would a family want to perpetuate the memory of such an occurrence by assuming the name Kilbride?

Well, take heart, all ye who bear the name Kilbride, Kilpatrick, or the like. It has nothing to do with murder.

The noun -- kil/kill (pronounced kill) is from the Gaelic cill, derived from the Latin cella, meaning cell. (In Latin, c was pronounced like k. scholars continue to say Keltic although millions of sports-minded people worship "the Seltics." When you hear a choir sing "Gloria in exchelsis," they are harking back only to the Italian, not the Latin pronunciation.)

Back to the cell, which may be defined as a small room (as in a monastery or prison) OR as a group of people dedicated to a cause. Just as there have been Communist cells, there were cells of people dedicated to a particular saint, such as St. Patrick or St. Bridget. St. Bride (a variant form), a patron saint of Ire- land, chose to remain a virgin and finally went into seclusion in a cell built under a large oak in County Kildare. The nane Kilbride was assumed by those who were deeply impressed by her saintly behavior and teachings. 0

Rena by Bess Ferris

Grandmother's house was the first in Oak Cliff to have electric wiring. This achievement was due to her'foresight and sense of adventure.

In the early days of electricity, certain homes in neighborhoods were chosen to be demonstrators. My grandmother read in the newspaper that her section of Dallas was next for this advanced technology, and volunteers were asked to call the office to make arrangements for their homes to be supplied with the proper.wiring. Grandmother was among the first in line, and the first in oak Cliff, so she got her wish.

The one room which was chosen by the electric company was the front room of the house, which was also Grandmother's and Granddaddy's bedroom. people came at all hours of the evening to see this marvelous contraption hanging from a single string in the middle of h e room. We children were fascinated, and fought for the pleasure of pulling the chain that turned a light bulb into a light. enthusiastic saleslady who gave lectures on the advantages of owning an electric light.

But there were problems. No one could go to bed until the last visitor left. Granddaddy wasn't too happy over the situation, but solved the problem by taking a mattress out to.the back porch, and there he slept for the duration of the six weeks period of sales.

Grandmother later had the entire house wired for electricity . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

I have been fortunate recently to enjoy these remembrances of earlier times. Here they are for you, too.

Milam County, c 1913 by Carlton Norris

We all lived such very simple lives in those days. tilled the soil with horses and mules; telephones; no way to get around except by horse or foot or train. The church building doubled. as the school house.

W e we had no

My father got very little schooling in the mods of Tennessee. Back in those days, they only had school about three months out of the year, and people didn't think it was all that important to get an education. He was self-educated from reading, and was well-versed in the Bible.

We lived in the Little River bottom of Milam County, near Davilla, raising hogs and cattle and crops. When I was going on five, there was a flood. up 26 inches deep on the bottom floor of our house. We had an upstairs and plenty of groceries. my dad and Uncle Quint wading around in the water, trying to tend to the stock.

The water got

I remember

Great Grandma Johnson was about the calmest person there. She would crack pecans for us kids and tell us stories. She said the Good Lord muld take care of us, and He did! There were no casualties. They took us out of there in a boat, from the window, to high ground. My two older brothers, Claude and Albert left first, with two men, but their boat took on water, and they had to get up in a tree for a time. Aunt Lillie's house, and saw the door wash open, and some things floated out. She later chided them for not getting down and shutting the door.

They weren't too far from

We went to Aunt Lizzie and Uncle Rufe's house because it was at the top of a hill. an island. I went to sleep on the way there and don't remember getting out of the boat, nor do I remember how long the flood lasted.

Water was all around, like

We had some very enjoyable times back there. enjoyed all those years we were there.

Par& 111: MY ODYSSEY CONTINUES, 1991 by Ghita Brockway Carter (9th generation

descendant of Wolston Brockway)

In the fall of 1990, my sister, Ruthanne Brockway, happened to pick up a copy of "Yankee Magazine" and spotted an ad concerning descendants of Wolston Brockway and a possible reunion. She contacted John Brockway of Pawling, N.Y., who set this nationwide reunion for April 6, 1991, in Lyme, CT, where our original ancestor settled in 1663.

a cousin from San Diego, Pat Byrd, who is also an avid genealogist, decided to join us. We wanted to make this a week of exploration by retracing other areas where our ancestors migrated. After our flights converged in Hartford, CT, we drove to St. Johnsbury, VT, \:here we visited cemeteries, delved into Municipal Office records, and at the Caledonia Co. Courthouse, got copies of the wills of William Brockway who died in 1818 and Harris Brockway, 1870. Going back even earlier, we next drove to Keene, NH, where in the Cheshire Co. Courthouse, we examined with awe the fragile 1789 will of our 3rd generation Wolston. Nearby, in the tiny village of Surry, we found the ancient slate gravestone of this Wolston, 1711-1789.

By April 6th, we had arrived in Lyme for this first ever reunion of descendants of the Wolston who arrived in 1663 to settle in the New World. John Brockway had planned well with a packet of information, displays of pictures and other data, and many ways to share during the day. Speakers included a Lyme resident who lives at Brockway's Ferry and a local historian/author. Special order T-shirts were available and we posed for a group photo at the end of the day. About 75-80 people were able to attend with many more sending responses and showing interest. That evening, in Old Saybrooke, the group had dinner at the "Dock and Dinel' Restaurant on the shore of the Connecti- cut River, continuing to share our mutual heritage.

On Sunday, we attended services at the First Congregational Church and enjoyed meeting local residents. That afternoon, the reunion group made a tour of the Duck River, Joshuatown, and Ham- burg Cove Cemeteries, as well as the Brockway's Ferry area, where John continued to point out historical landmarks and read from early history. Early Brockways once had a shipyard here, and for many years, operated a ferry across the Connecticut River.

On Monday, we had time for a trip to the Lyme Library and last glimpses of the yellow forsythia in bloom everywhere as we drove to Hartford for our departure after a week of memorable discovery and camaraderie as we shared in the joy of family history. Besides the memories, the many pictures and documents to process and organize will keep me busy for some time!

Information Exchange," a newsletter printed by Walter Brockway of Miami, FL, which makes it possible to share information and family history. In addition, Stephen Brockway of Council Bluffs, IA is serving as the archivist for the family, com- piling computer files for all data that is sent to him. Since he is a Mormon and a very dedicated, competent person, we are assured of excellent record-keeping.

SUBMISSION BY: JERRY A . HUNT, 7105 SANSIVERA COVE, AUSTIN9 TX 78750

In know UP same

the fo1,lowing sections and pages, I am going to tell you what I --plus what I think--about certain persons and families that make my ancestry. people--either deceased or currently "into the ancestral chase".

I will also mention some searchers for some of the

The last page of this entry will be my current Ahnentafel Chart, as best I can put it together f o r a publication such as this.

I wrote a few pages la5t year on the _H_u_N_T branch of my ancestry, and will start this with some HUNT-related comments.

I still need help in resolving the connection between my THOMAS HUNT, of Little Creek, Franklin Co. NC and the older HUNT line o f WILLIAM HUNT(T) of Isle of Wight Co. V A . There was another THOMAS HUNT in the GRANVILLE/FRANKLIN CO. NC area at the same time as my ancestor, who lived "up the river"9 meaning ( I think) the TARR River. The time o f all these Hunts was the mid-1700's. My Thomas was born about 1720--I don't know where--and d i e d about 1791 in Franklin Co. NC.

If anyone is doing any research on the HARP53 lines of Gibson Co. TN, I would appreciate a call. T h e only thing I know about my grandmother is her name and the date she married my grandfather. Her name was LOLLIE F. HARPER, and she married JAMES GRANVILLE HUNT on 26 NOV 1891, in Gibson Co. TN. There are no Hunts left to ask of this, and there were many Harpers in the area in the late 1800's.

One of my later- ancestors was a G_A_y_. NANCY GAY, daughter of JOHN GAY o f Franklin Co. NC, married ELLERY HARDY HUNT in NC, Jan. 1803. They then moved on to Sumner/Wilson C o . T N , then to Gibson Co. TN. There were many GAYS in the early VA Tidewater counties, and later in the Bertie/Edgecombe/Granville/Franklin/Nash Co. NC area. I would like to establish the ancestry o f my J O H N GAY, born about 1753 in NC, and died about Dec 1808 in Franklin Co. NC. His son, also JOHN GAY, was also a Gibson C o . TN settler, moving along with the HUNT (and other) families into Middle TN, then West TN. The second John Gay's descendants moved on to Graham/Olney Texas, I think, along with some o f the HUNT linage.

Incidentally, some o f my common TN HUNT line moved to Hallsville and Gladewater TX---brothers of those who moved to Olney.

The early families moved quite often in group5;. I believe that several o f my lines moved f r o m 'JA to NC to TN, almost i n lock-step with each other. Another o f my lines is the T_r?_y_L_o_R_ one. One o f my ancestors was MILES CHRISTOPHER TAYLOR, born AUG 1827, in TN. I t is possible he was even born in Gibson Co. TN, but it is more likely he was born in Sumner/Wilson/Robertson C o TN. I think his family moved with the HUNT/GAY/THOMAS/MASSEY/WEBB/BABB groups a5 they migrated on the westward march. I t is believed by some o f my cousins that one o f my early relatives married a SARAH TAYLOR, daughter of a LABAN TAYLOR of Franklin Co. NC, which could be an earlier part o f my Taylor line.
