Uncovered Geneaology Attaway

Hi Folks,
I just found a box of old papers at a antique flea market in Fredericksburg Virgina (Home town of James & Caroline Attway).
what I have may interest you. Seems someone in the family was a ancestry buff or sleuth back in the 1930's. I didn't go through it all, it's not very organized but it is in one binder type book. It lists dates back to the 1700's. I think Elisha is the first name that come to mind along with Issac, Lettuce?, Joseph, william john, david robert, Harley, Gonley?, Anna, James etc... Elisha 1735 1816 Lettice Barton died after 1820?.
Info on the 1850 census from edgefield SC. And so on.

There are corresposndence letters from what I think a cousin to the original slueth (Haven't defined who the sleuth is as of yet.lol)

In any evet I will try and put some photos of what I have found up on the web, if you ar einterested email me for the link.

Thanks and happy Tracking, kristin

Andy,
Are you the one who received the "box" from Kristin. I'd love to have copies of what was in the letters since I got a glimpse of a page that said Joseph went to war at age 14. That might help me pinpoint the correct Joseph for for lineage.

I am extremely interested in this info also as I am an Attaway descendant. Please advise where you are going to post the photos on the web so that we can all see. All the people that replied to you on this are my relations. Thank you so much for anything you will do to help us.

That person has never contacted Sharon or any of the rest of us Attaway's, and I'm sure we never will. I just hope and pray he really was an Attaway that got all that info. If he was, I think he would be willing to share.

KRISTIN, THIS WAS NOT A VERY FUNNY JOKE AS IT GOT US ALL EXCITED ABOUT FINDING NEW MATERIAL. THIS WHOLE THING YOU DID WAS A HOAX, AND IT IS NOT VERY APPRECIATED. THAT BOX YOU SAID YOU GOT AT A FLEA MARKET NEVER EXISTED. THANK YOU.
