Any Eunices in Woodbine?

tigertrax31 — 28 Mar 2007 10:30:23 GMT

I recently came across some very romantic love letters addressed to a "Mrs. Eunice" from a secret admirer from out of town. Her name is never revealed and woodbine is only referred to a few times so i'm only guessing that is where she is from. They are from around 1925 or so. I can gather from the letters that she is married with a "whole mess" of kids. I can't rest until i've tracked this love story down.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

John L. Taylor

Bobbie Lindsay — 4 Dec 2006 1:44:40 GMT

I am a descendent of John L. Taylor and Priscilla Drury and have been researching the Taylor line for a long time. I went to the genealogy libray in Salt Lake City and researched the Taylors of Sampson County, N. C. andd after reading the wills of Jonathan Taylor and Laban Taylor recorded there< I decided that Laban Taylor could not have been the father of John L. Taylor and Laban Taylor of camden Co. Ga. It has been a llong time since I did that and do not have the details at my finger tip but I believe that their father was William Taylor of Camden County, Ga. I do believe he was related to the Laban Taylor of Sampson Co. N.C. but I can't determine how they were related. Let me know your feelings on this.

Spring Hills, Camden Co

Dena Whitesell — 10 Sep 2006 3:04:32 GMT

My ggrandfather owned a tract of land in 1855 known as 'Spring Hills'. He and three of his children died that year and were buried on their plantation (I'm assuming it's Sping Hills). Later his wife was buried there also. Their graves (hear say) are unmarked. I have not been able to locate burial for him , the 3 children that died, his wife, my ggrandfather/ggrandmother, my ggranduncle/ggrandaunt.

There is a cemetery known as 'Wilkerson/Spring Hill/Green' with 9 unmarked graves listed on the Camden Co. web site. All other burials are after 1956.

Does anyone know anything about this cemetery? Was there a homestead near the cemetery?

This may all be circumtance, but with the name "Spring Hill' and 9 unmarked graves - I'm wondering if there is some relation.

Does anyone know what cemeteries are in that dist? If you can help me find her death date ( I would like to try and find an obit ) or her burial site I would appreciate it.

Thomas, Hill, & Sanchez

Al Hill — 21 Apr 2001 12:00:00 GMT

Does anyone know the ancestors of Joseph Thomas, Sr., & Joseph Thomas, Jr., who ran the Bullhead Bluff plantation in Camden county from the late 1700's at least through 1829, when Joseph Thomas, Sr, left it to Joseph Thomas, Jr?

I suspect there may have been a connection to Teresa Thomas (1744-1825) the wife of my 3rd great-granduncle. They left Camden county in 1785, moving to St. Augustine, where Theophilus Hill died 20 Dec 1790. Teresa remarried to Manuel Marcial, renaming most of her eight children with Spanish equivalents of their given names. Two of their girls married Spaniards, with Sarah (Maria Del Carmen) marrying Xavier Sanchez 28 Dec 1787 and Christine (Christina) marrying Jose Sanchez de Ortega 15 Sep 1794. Juana married a Dewitt (possibly), and Isabel (Elizabeth) married Joseph Burnell. Sgt. Lodowick Hill died in Edgefield district, SC, married to Susan Grigsby, and John Thomas Hill died the day he was born, 6 Jun 1787, in St. Augustine.

MCCLELLAN

Cecil McClellan — 14 Aug 2005 1:34:24 GMT

I am connected to two differant McClellan Lines. My direct line is from Screven Co. Ga. bn. 1820, William Bonapart McClellan. My mother line is connected is the Andrew / Charles McClellan line in Camden Co. Ga. mentioned in " Wire Grass Huxfords"books.
I am trying to research both McClellan lines. A number of McClellan from across the U.S. have got togeather and established a group of McClellans with various spelling of our names using DNA as another tool in our research to join us.
Each of us have our own reason for having our DNA done. Mine is the lack of written / documented data past the 1850s to located my direct lines. It is my hope that the many differant spelling of the McClellan name will join us. Your knowage of your roots is needed for the commond good of us all. DNA will help us all. Please contact me for details or information on finding our DNA site. .
Our DNA site shows only your DNA results / matched along with others. It does not give out any personnal information that I.D. you. It does give you a way of contacting any of the other people. It is up to you or them to share any personnal information.

John McLaran and Nancy Moore

Charles Templer — 12 Jul 2005 2:46:06 GMT

John McLaran, of our Clan U family of the Clan MacLaren Society, was born abt 1760 probably in the Baltimore, MD, area. Old family history reports that he moved to the St. Mary's, GA, area after a career in shipbuilding in Baltimore. His wife was Nancy Moore who after John McLaran's death remarried to a Peter Godley.

I have been unable to identify this man in any of the early 1800 census data to date. Is there anyone who might know of this man and his wife? Did they die in the St. Mary's area and are buried there?

They had three children; James, Eliza and Charles and I have been able to track them down for several generations. However, what happened to John is still a mystery.

I would appreciate any local assistance anyone might be able to offer.
