Tennessee Genealogical Society Mrs. Rivers Young, Vice President Memphis, Tennessee

Dear Katherine:

It is necessary that I resign as President of Tennessee GenealogicAl Society. On February 18 I was offered an opportunity to return to Dallas, Texas, with a very substantial promotion. Since Georgia and I intend to make Dallas our home when I retire we welcome the opportunity to go there now. The transfer is effective March 14.

I wish to express to you our appreciation for the many courtesies extended to us by members of the Society. It has been fun working with you and making so many good friends.

I wish the Society and its members the very best and will look forward to receiving each copy of "Ansearchin'''.

Sincerely,

Bill Crawford cc: Board Members

Dear Members,

Your Board members accepted with regret the resignation of our President, Mr. William Crawford, as of February 24, 1970. We will miss Georgia and Bill. Their interest and hard work is indeed appreciated by the Society. We wish Bill success and both much happiness on their return to their home and family. As your new President, I welcome your advice and support.

Monday, January 19, 1970, 6:30 p.m., at Pete & Sam's Restaurant, the new officers were installed by Mrs. Bunyan Webb. Our speaker, Mr. E.V. Catoe, of Webb, Miss., spoke on "Continental Currency." Mr. Catoe brought an interesting collection with him. His talk was filled with delightful historical facts. Our gratitude to Mr. Catoe for reaching Memphis through ice and snow is unbounded.

Monday, April 20, 1970, Mclean Public Library, 7:30 p.m., our guest speaker will be Mr. Jas. L. Garthright, Jr., Memphis attorney. His subject will be "Legal Terms." Don't let this scare you, this is going to be fun. Remember all those strange words you've read in Court minutes and Wills!

On Saturday, July 18, 1970, 9:00 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., Pi Kappa Alpha Fraternity National Headquarters, 577 University, Memphis, Tenn., your Society will offer a one-day Seminar. The fee will be $3.00, luncheon included. We felt a weekend would be convenient to our friends and members in the neighboring areas and hope you will include this opportunity in your summer plans.

With pleasure, we present Mr. Leon S. Hollingsworth, noted Genealogist of Decatur, Ga. Mr. Hollingsworth is a Certified Genealogist by the National Board for Certification of Genealogist, Washington, D.C. He is a member of at least a dozen Historical and Genealogical Societies. He has conducted many workshops and has researched the National Archives, Library of Congress, state archives and libraries of North and South Carolina, Maryland, Virginia, Georgia, Alabama and Florida. A hearty welcome to you. .. Ansea.rchin·" News -2-

NOTES FROM THE EDITOR'S DESK

Please note the heading at the top of the Query Section of this issue. We must, due to the ever increasing interest in genealogy and our own growing subscription list, limit the number of queries sent by our members to one per quarter. These to include not more than fifty words, be typewritten or printed, with the name and address on the page. We are not permitted to print queries for non-members of TGS. We are, indeed, sorry that there was a long carryover from 1969, but we will print all of them as rapidly as possible.

All requests for information from our Research Director must contain a stamped envelope. Note, also, if you please, the notice regarding changes of address. This is a very important duty of the subscriber if he is to receive a bulletin. No third-class mail is forwarded and, if not delivered, is returned to us. Please send us your new address so that we can keep our mailing list current.

Our grateful appreciation is expressed to Mrs. A. Burton Hicks, Memphis and Shelby County Health Department, for the colorful and explanatory folders on the Yellow Fever Epidemic in Memphis. These dove-tailed perfectly with the beginning of our recording of the deaths in 1878 which began in our last issue, as did a newspaper article on Martyrs Park, a memorial to those who stayed and fought this dread disease. The Yellow Fever Commission in Memphis will soon dedicate the park and a marker, sculptored by Harris Sorrels, will be erected in memory of the worst catastrophe ever to hit our city.

le30 CENSUS EAST TENNESSEE, transcribed and indexed by Byron Sistler (1969), over 300 pages, index. Order from the author, 1805 Madison Street, Evanston, Illinois 60202. Price: $20.00.

This excellent book is tremendous help in doing research in East Tennessee. It has all of the information given in the 1830 Federal Census records for the 24 counties comprising that section. It is splendidly indexed and easy to read. One must study the page entitled "How to use this book." There is nothing diffi­ cult about using this book, once one learns the key.

INDEX TO GRAVE IDeATION RECORDS of SERVICEMEN of the WAR of 1812, compiled by the Ohio Society of United States Daughters of 1812 (1969), 75 pages. Order from Mrs. Verne R. Silbaugh, 640 North High Street, Lancaster, Ohio 43130. Price: $2.50.

A ZOLA DICTIONARY - THE CHARACTERS OF THE ROUGON - MACQUART NOVELS OF EMIlE ZOlA, by J. G. Patterson (London 1912), 323 pages, index and appendix. Re­ published (1969) by Gale Research Company, 1400 Book Tower, Detroit, Michigan 48226. Price $13.50.

Emile Zola (1840-1902) devoted 25 years to writing the delightful and perceptive novels that helped to establish his literary fame, the Rougon-Kacquart series. These novels deal with the lives and declines of five generations of Adelaide Rougon's descendants, involving nearly 1200 characters. It is a fascinating book with a biographical and critical introduction, synopses of the plots, biographi­ cal notes, map, genealogy, etc. For a clever way of compiling a general family book one may enjoy Patterson's format and his general approach to thorough genealogy. Especially interesting is his Rougon-Macquart family tree.

JULIANA HORATIA EWING AND HER BOOKS, by Horatio K. F. Eden (London, about 1886), 302 pages. Republished (1969) by Gale Research Company, 1400 Book Tower, Detroit, Michigan 48226. Price $12.80.

The lovely Juliana Ewing (1841-1885) has long been famous for her children's stories--her depth of understanding for the child and its world. This particular "Ansearchin'" News -4-

Ewing biography is replete with intimata of the biographee's short life, includ­ ing her letters and some stories.

First published many years ago, this book remains an immensely helpful research tool for anyone interested in locating Pennsylvania counties, townships, cities, etc., along with their histories and other details of particular attention to a delving genealogist. A major appendix to the volume is an extensive bibliography, suggesting numerous histories helpful to a student of Pennsylvania genealogy. These include a long list of county histories, many of which have long been out of print. The genealogist may check these titles and write to the State Library asking them the fee for photocopying the pages that mention the names and pages of interest to him.

FAMILY NAMES AND THEIR STORY, by Sabine Baring-Gould (London 1910), 432 pages, hard back, index. Republished 1969 by Gale Research Company, 1400 Book Tower, Detroit, Michigan 48226. Price: $8.00.

Twenty chapters and five appendices to these chapters contain a great mass of detailed information about family names. Each chapter is a documented treatise on a different area or aspect of family names and naming. The preface lists and evaluates earlier works on British surnames by Lower, Taylor, Bardsley, Baker and others. Common pitfalls which are disruptive to genealogists are described. A historical background on the first use of surnames in Great Britain, their select­ ion, their varients and their development is given. Baring-Gould uses folklore, social history and genealogy to make ingenious approaches to name derivations, thus giving an insight to origins, changes and corruptions of family nomenclature. This is a well organized study of a monumental amount of detail which should be the starting point for any genealogist concerned with backgrounds focused in England, Scotland and Ireland.

THE ASA JOINER FAMILY OF MITCHELL COUNTY, GEORGIA, VOLUME 1. Compiled and published by A. H. Clark (1967), 381 pages, hard back, index. Order from the author, P. O. Box 401, Waycross, Georgia 31501. Price: $14.00.

An authentic record of births, deaths and marriages of the descendants of Alfred Jefferson Joiner, oldest son of Asa Joiner, and a short history of the Joiner and other ancestral families. A very well written book done with great labor and love of family. Genealogists searching for ancestors from this part of Georgia could find it to be a good source of information.

Order from Mrs. Ursula S. Beach, 512 Madison Street, Clarksville, Tennessee 37040 or Mrs. Ann E. Alley, Route One, Box 76, Adams, Tennessee 37010. Price: $10.00. The 1798 tax list is the earliest known list of persons living in Montgomery Co. Information includes name, acreage, location of land, number of free and black polls, number of stud horses and number of town lots. The 1820 census is the earliest Federal Census available. The Genesis of Counties, map of Tennessee prior to statehood, circa 1790, which has an overlay of the present counties, and a map of the watersheds of Montgomery County makes this a valuable genealogical tool.

FIVE GENERATION CHARTS

The Tennessee Genealogical Society can supply five generation charts for the family lines you are researching. If you would like charts, they may be ordered, two for five cents, with a stamped, self-addressed envelope.

MASTER SURNAME INDEX

The Master Surname Index of The Tennessee Genealogical Society contains several thousand cards representing individuals found in the family trees of many of our members.

Won't you please help all of the members by sending us a 3 x 5 inch file card for EACH member of your family tree?

These cards will be indexed and added to our file to assist everyone working on a similar family. Send as many cards as you wish. Our file is not restricted to any particular locality, but covers families who lived in various European countries and in every state of the United States.

Please follow this outline in preparing your cards:

Surname First Name Middle Name M or F b. Where d.------Where m. Where _

Name of Spouse: Son/Daughter of:

Your name AddressO _

City, State, ZIP _

Cards should be typed or printed. Be sure that your name and address do not cover the circled area at the lower center of the card. That space will be drilled to accommodate the rods of the file drawers.

Each card should contain at least one date and one place, even if they are estimated or guessed. This will enable us to determine that a person who lived in one area in the 17th Century is a different person from Someone (with the same name) who lived in another area in the 19th Century.

Please mail all cards and requests for information WITH A STAMPED, SELF-ADDRESSED ENVELOPE to The Tennessee Genealogical Society, Post Office Box 12124, Memphis, Tennessee 38112.

Lost a Smith ancester in Lewis, Lincoln or McMinn Counties, Tennessee, l850? Will search for his or her name in these counties for $2.00. Chism, Chisum, Chisholm, 1820 Census, South Carolina. Arlene Wyatt Greathouse, Box 36, ~1tc1an _ Texas 79371. Spring 1970 -'J1-
