Jessica Hibbs 1960 California Paul Dosen unknown Children: Trisha Ragan 21 years old, Robbie Mckinstry 11years old, Kyle Dosen 8 years old.
I have been looking for my mother for the past 6 years. She up and took off on me when I was 16. She took both of my brothers with her and her soon to be husband Paul. My father has not seen his son in 8 in a half years. My mother is not a bad person but I do need your help. There was no reason for her to up and leave me and my father. If there is any one out there that has seen a white woman with very long blond hair (past her behind or close to it) Blue eyes, fair complexion, and skinny please e-mail me trisharagan@yahoo.com My one brother which is 11 has brown hair and if my memory serves me right it's curly and hazel eyes. And my other brother has blond hair. Paul, my mothers new husband or soon to be has brown hair and brown eyes and very bad teeth and is a average size man. The reason why I am trying to find her is not because she is my mother but because I have married and had a child and she has no idea. And I have done so much in my life and If I don't find her she will never know. For as many things as she has done to me I do love her very much and would do just about anything to see her again. So if anyone reads this please help me. I am at my witts ends. Thank You , Trisha Ragan .

Veronica (Unknown) ABT 1727 Bucks County PA (unconfirmed) Chrisitan Miller Before 1749 Pennsylvania First_Census: 1790 Surry County NC.
Children: Catherina (Long), Elizabeth (Carpenter), Jacob, Mary (Davis).

I am looking for any record of Christian and/or Veronica prior to 1752. They are believed to have been married in Berks County PA .

Children: ABRAHAM, DEBORAH, ANN, MARGARET, PETER, MARY, CHARLES. Early census done by Gloria Dei Church in Philadelphia indicates that Mary Yocum, wife of Peter, may have been English. She disappears from the tax lists around 1779. Peter Yocum was the only son of Charles Yocum and Ann Supplee Yocum who married in 1703. He had one sister, Christian, who married William Lascum. His son Abraham acted as executor of his will. B.B. Walker user917826@aol.com

Nathan died sometimes before 1852 as Susan, a widow, and some of her children moved with her oldest daughter Eliza, who had married a Richardson to Rusk County Texas, Susan along with William, Andrew and H.

I need Susan's maiden name, when she died and where she is buried. The name Susan runs in every generation of the family. It is a possiblility of her being of Native American blood . .

Edna Yearout March 5, 1848 Blount County, Tennessee William James Stinnett 1865(?) Tennessee Children: William, Calvin, Lemuel, Mary Alice, Emmeline Harriet, Lily, Robert Franklin..
Edney was first found in the 1860 Blount County census with John and Martha Raulston Yearout. John was 65, Martha 62 and Edney 12. Leads me to think they were grandparents. Even though all census records indicate her as being born 1848, she is missing from this family in 1850. Also missing are David and Daniel Yearout. David did have a daughter named Catherine E. but I have been unable to verify that this is Edna. Edna was in the 1870, 1880 and 1900 census of Blount also, and in the early 1900's City Directory of Knoxville, TN. She died January 14, 1924. I have her medical, burial and death records, all which list parents unknown. One of her children, Lemuel Yearout (illigitimate?) was listed in the home of Lewis and MJ Yearout Williams as nephew, 1880 census. Would like so much to locate the names of her parents. .
