Dear Quest and Webduck,
Thank you for adding your surnames! I have Hodges and Sutton. My mother’s side and she came from Indiana. My grandmother’s name was Nora Sutton. I have some Sutton info. if ya’ want, e-mail me. I also have a little on a couple of Hodges. Bill has some hodges info. Again, Thank you. Love & Light, Lynella.;)
My family is from Chilhowie Va. The White family. I think the Blackfoot is from my Grandmother family,(Richardson or Fouse).
The Richardson’s are from Grayson & Ashe county area. My Aunt say’s the Blackfoot comes from my Great Grandmother Jane Fouse. My Grandma Katie Lou White(Richardson), look 100% Native American.
Bob,
Hi! Fouse sounds familiar to me. Have you used the search button on here to see if there is anything on here about them? I know I’ve heard that somewhere. Love & Light, Lynella.
Joseph RIPLEY was born in Sodus Twp, Ontario Co, NY; his wife Laura Anna Sutton, d/o David and ?? was also born in NY. They married in 1830 in Jefferson County, IN and from there, migrated to Gallia County, OH and were living there from about 1832 to 1849 when their youngest child (that we know of) was born in Iowa. So, the migration for this family (so far) was from NY to OH, to IA. They settled in Floyd county, IA, and some in Chickasaw Co., IA.
I really believe it is through the Ripley/Sutton line that any Native American blood was introduced.
Naelady,
My Husband has Terry’s in his line and I have Etheridge’s. My Etheridge’s are from Edgecombe, Wilson and Halifax counties in North Carolina. Terry’s in My husband’s line were in Bedford County TN in the 1800’s. In Halifax county NC before that. If you want more info I’ll be glad to share what I know.

Hodwy Ron,
You mentioned East Tennessee. I have Mary Dickson m. John Woods and Nancy Dickson m. James Woods (The Wood’s boys are brothers, and we believe the 2 Dickson girls are sisters), both marriages taking place in the early 1790s, and most likely in/near Blount County, Tn.
Were your Dickson’s in or near that County at that time? Unfortunately the census for that time frame no longer exists I was told, but I found other records.

Hi Vance!
Great to hear from you. My Dickson’s were in that very area of East TN. You can access my database at this URL: http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=rsmith0127&id=I22393
I’m tied into the Dickson’s in two different areas on my mom’s side –
1. My 3g-grandfather, James Lynn b. c. 1785 married a Nancy Dickson, b. c. 1810 on Sep 10, 1836 in Roane Co., TN
2. Almeda “Ally” Dickson, b. 1780 in NC whose parents were John Dickson, b. c. 1760 and Rebecca ???. She married Zachariah Tuten, b. c. 1766 in NC or SC.
Let me know if we are related or you tie in somewhere.
Ron
i have just become a forum member. i hope listing my surnames will help find new cousins.
FATHERS SIDE: SHEPHERD, COLLINS, DAVIDSON, BEGLEY, STEVENS,NAPIER. KY, N.C., VA.
mothers side has no native american at all that i can find.
Hi Ron —
How are you?
My Mary Dickson married John Woods and had my g-g-g-grandma in @ 1795 or 6. That means she would have been born at least by 1775, most likely. So she might be an older sister of yours, or perhaps a cousin.
Do you know where in NC Almeda was born, or who her brothers and sisters were, or where her parents lived?

Greetings, all! Here is my information:
Dad – Hillian, Merriman, Owen, Streater, Chavers (Chavis?)
Mom – Parsons, Flowers, Carraway
All of these names belong to people who shuttled between Anson Co. and Chesterfield Co. with the exception of the Chavers; I’m not sure where she came from…yet. God bless!
Hi Everyone,
For years we have been looking for the wife of Caleb Etheredge, we now have reason to believe her name was Sally Thrower. Her father was Thomas Thrower. It appears they came to Edgecombe County from Surry (which this area today is Dinwidde County). He owned land on the Nottoway River. I have not been able to get the lineage on this family but I do have some names of people that lived around them. Some of them lived by them in Surry and Edgecombe counties meaning they probably moved together. The names are Lewis, Jones, Simonds, Matthews, Adkeson, Evans, Hill, Davis, Clark and Walker. Oh and Bird. Does anyone here have any info on any of these families? And the district they lived in Edgecombe County later became Halifax County. They showed up in Edgecombe county around 1750 and were still in Va. in the 1730’s and 1740’s. Thomas Thrower’s property bordered Aaron Etheredge and he is Caleb’s father. Caleb and his brother Abel witnessed Thomas Thrower’s will in 1784 and Sally is listed in the will as Sally Etheredge. Abel married Sally McClain and we have the wives on all the other Etheredge men. IF anyone can help we would appreciate it.
Linda
