QRYTEXT: I am looking for the descendants of Thomas Carrell Rasnick, son of Jacob Rasncik and Judith Finney. He is mentioned in Jacob's will. I have searched many of the records of the Rasnick family further back, but can't find what happened to Thomas Carrell and his wife Lavina after 1860. Some of his children, Jacob, William and Calista, as well as his brother Jasper show up in Meeker Co., MN, in the 1870's and 1880's. They were apparently part of the migration from Russell Co, to Meeker in 1866, but we can find no records of Thomas Carrell or Lavina there, just the children. I know there are many researchers for other children of Jacob and Judith Finney Rasnick, but are there any for mine? I would love to find someone who knows what happened to the rest of this family

QRYTEXT: I am interested in hearing from anyone related to the PHELPS/FELPS family of Russell Co., VA. My ancestor was JOHN C. PHELPS, I believe the son of Samuel Phelps and Eliza (Riety) Chapman Phelps. Sometimes they spelled it FELPS. John C. married a lady named Margaret c. 1867. He moved from Russell Co. to Pikeville, Ky. around that time. I don't know whether he married Margaret there or not. I used to think he married a Margaret Mann in Washington Co., Va but that is a different, older John Phelps. I really need and want to find out about this Margaret he married. I'll be going next week to Pikeville to see what I can find there on the Phelps family. My grandfather, Walter C. Phelps, was born in Pikeville, but came back to Russell Co. and married 1st: Elvie Ellen Cumbow; 2nd: Sarah Anice Metcalfe. Anice was my grandmother. Has anyone any info on ELVIE ELLEN CUMBOW? I would be interested in finding out about her family, also
