QRYTEXT: William MANN, b. 1808, mar. Rhoda HOWARD, 1832 in Floyd Co., Ky.

I believe that this William goes back to the MANN'S in Russell County, Virginia. This is what I have found on the Tax List.

1792-Russell Co., Va.
Alice MANCE? (0)(Could this be MANN?)

1793-Russell Co., Va.
Alice MANN (0)

1795-Russell Co., Va.
Alice MANN (1)

1796-Russell Co., Va.
Alice MANN (1)

1797-Russell Co., Va.
Samuel MANN (2)

1798-Russell Co., Va.
Samuel MANN (1)
William MANN (1)

1799-Russell Co., Va.
Samuel MANN (1)
William MANN (1)

I am trying to figure out, Alice showed no males tithable in the year 1793, but in 1795 & 1796 she showed one. In the year 1797, Samuel MANN shows up with two tithable males. In 1798, Samuel MANN shows one tithable but then a William MANN shows up with one tithable male. The year 1799 is the same as 1798.

I am trying to figure out which one could be my William MANN(1808) mar. Rhoda HOWARD in 1832 Floyd Co., Ky (ancestor.)

Is this Alice MANN (ALLY) the one who gave permission for dau. Nancy MANN to marry Jeremiah PATRICK? in Floyd Co., Ky. She was never on the tax list after 1796 in Russell Co., Va., but she could have been living with Samuel or William.

Would love to have some input from other MANN researchers.

1797-1798 Signers of Petition to form TAZEWELL Co., Va. Some of the signers from Russell Co., Va. were:

William MANN
Samuel MANN

I haven't found them between the time period of 1798 to 1810 when they (Samuel & William MANN) appear on Floyd County, Kentucky census

In Floyd Co., Ky marriage records, Nancy Mann mar. Jeremiah Patrick. Nancy's mother, Alley gave her permission. I think Alley is a nickname for Alice. So this could be Alice Mann listed in Russell Co., Va.

Note: There were Patrick's also in Russell County, Va. when the Mann's were there.

The way this looks to me is that Alice is Samuel & William's mother. Can anyone help me out, please? I have been looking for a connection for a long time

QRYTEXT: I am researching the Whitt side of my family. I have an aunt who remembers a great uncle that was a jeweler at Zeke's Jewelry Store in Swords Creek, Virginia. She said she thought his name was Gould Whitt. Does anyone have any information concerning a Whitt who was a jeweler? He was probably born between 1865-1880. Was there a jewelery store by that name in the area? He had three known brothers, Thomas, John and William Cecil. Can anyone offer any help me with this link

QRYTEXT: I am looking for a complete list of the descendents of John and Jane Stinson. I know that John Stinson bought a farm on Lewis Creek in Russell County on 8/21/1797 and that he died in 1820. My Grandfather was Houston Stinson of Honaker. His Father was Charlie Stinson, born 12/6/1873 and his father was Arch Stinson (born around 1840). I think Arch was the son of William Stinson and the grandson of John and Jane Stinson but I havent been able to verify this so far. I wouldnt appreciate any information that anyone may have on John Stinson and his descendents
