For personal reasons, I do not have but a few minutes to look through old notes, so this is very basic: Abraham LeRoy -- Swiss clockmaker, settled in Lancaster PA IP: Logged |

Charles Hall and David Hall, silversmiths of Philadelphia were brothers. Charles removed to Lancaster where he continued to work, and his son, David, was also a working silversmith in Lancaster. Charles' brother David continued working in Philadelphia. The two Davids are often conflated. [This message has been edited by swarter (edited 01-26-2009).] IP: Logged |

This is a very confusing family and I will post what info I have on them. I thought wev might want to add them to his list. I am related thru the Massengill family and I have a lot of information that has not been published on this bunch. IP: Logged |

Originally from Grainger County records, William L Atkinson married Elizabeth Cobb on 19 September 1821. Originally from Cemeteries Relocated by TVA, which essentially recorded that William Atkinson Jr died in 1867. He was buried in Cobb Public Cemetery, and then his body was reinterred in a new Cobb Cemetery in 1941 because the Cherokee reservoir encompassed his grave site. Elizabeth Atkinson's body was also reinterred for the same reason. She died in 1872. IP: Logged |

quote: I missed this marriage date in my earlier post today. I believe Rutledge is the post office that serviced this 1860 enumeration district in Grainger County. For myself, unless there's other information to go along with it, it's not enough to call it a residence. It does of course help to narrow down a location.
