The Chris who married Pearlie Robertson has two brothers, Thomas and Mitchell, who don't match Ben's family, unless this is a kind of family tradition - to give the census taker the wrong names. He is difficult to find because he was only on one census with his parents. However, this Chris Baskerville, about the right age, is buried at Pleasant Run Cemetery where George is buried, Pearlie either isn't there or has no stone.

THE CREEK INDIAN WAR
... It was judged that thirty or more Indians were killed. In Captain Garman's company eight were killed and four wounded. Of Major Jernigan's company four were killed and three wounded. Gwinnett County volunteers who were killed were Ensign J. S. Lacy, Orderly-Sergeant James C. Martin, James H. Holland, Robert T. Holland, James M. Allen, William M. Sims, J. A. V. Tate, and Henry W. Paden. The wounded were Captain Hammond Garmany, John R. Alexander, Thomas W. Hunt and William Stapp.
In 1837 a meeting was held in Lawrenceville to decide to have the bodies of the eight young men who had died at Shepherd's Plantation brought back to Gwinnett County. They were buried with military honors in a common grave on Friday, February 17th, 1837, in the northwest corner of the courthouse yard .
In 1840 a marble monument was erected on the site by Henry Fitzsimmons.

The Daily News, Batavia, NY, Monday Evening, 22 April 1918.
John Senn Dead
Corfu, Apr 22 - John Senn, a former resident of Corfu, died at his home in Buffalo on Saturday evening. He is survived by his wife and a son in Buffalo, a brother, Henry C Senn of Batavia, and three sisters, Mrs Clara Colby of Corfu, Mrs Emil Gesse of Fargo and Mrs Julia Tubbs of Buffalo.
The funeral will be held from the house at 1 o'clock on Wednesday afternoon, after which the funeral party will come by automobile to Corfu to inter the remains in Evergreen Hill Cemetery.
[This suggests that John died on the 20th instead of the 24th, as recorded on his gravestone.]

The death certificate says she is single but gives her name as Etta Hoppe and her parents as William and Edith. The headstone also says Hoppe. An S A Hoppe reported Aleck's death, probably Samuel Albert - husband of Etta and Frances Gardner.

The earliest date in the file for Nancy's pension request is 5 Oct 1905, so I believe George died between Sep 1890 and Oct 1905. The pension file was closed in 1933. She married Thomas Hosey in 1858 and William J Marshall in 1867.

The family lore on Michael has him jumping ship in Galveston; we have never found any record of him legally entering country, although he was eventually naturalized. He worked on the docks in Galveston as a cotton screwman, so-called because the tool they used to handle the bales was called a screw, a bit like a corkscrew. The bale was lifted to the shoulder and carried to where it needed to be. He retired from the docks in the 30s and bought a small, neighborhood grocery store.
Annie bore her first 7 children at home and elected to deliver the last at St Mary's. Michael reportedly told her that if she went to the hospital she would come out "feet first" and, unfortunately, this proved to be true. Both Annie and her baby died. Michael put the other children in an orphange for a while but they were back with him by the 1920 census, possibly because of his marriage.
Michael's second wife, Fanny disappeared from public records after the death of theiir baby daughter, Elizabeth. I don't know if she died or they divorced.
He married twice more but neither of the marriages lasted long as Henrietta died after 7 years and Michael died 6 years after marrying Matilda.

The Jesse Aldridge home was located near Jason on the Arba road and his grandson , Lemuel Sugg, lived there until his death. The house burned in the year 1972. It was a big two story house with a porch located on the top and bottom floors. It had fire places in all rooms upstairs as well as downstairs. Jesse was shown on the 1790 census but not on the 1800 census.

The marriage index gives her name as Louie [Lonie?], the 1930 and 1940 Census records say Lunnie. Most of her children's death records say Lucy L or Lorena Lucy Andrews. Her age is incorrect on the 1900 Census, the other Census records are consistent with her being born in 1876.

The name Joynes originated in Cheshire County, England, it is believed to be a Welsh variation of the name Johns. There are still Joynes / Joines descendants living in this region of England.The first record of a Joines / Joynes in America is in 1638 when John Joines was listed as a passenger on a ship
arriving on the Eastern Shore of Virginia. There is a record of a John Joynes leaving London, in 1635, boarding a ship bound for New England. John was eighteen years old in 1635. I have been doing research on the Joines / Joynes Family for more than twenty years. I am a descendant of Ezekiel Joines who settled in North Carolina. The first record of Ezekiel in North Carolina is about 1778. We do not know where he came from.I have also gathered information on many other Joines / Joynes lines: The Joynes Family, from the Eastern Shore of Virginia: The Jabez Joines Family, from Georgia in the late 1700's: The Noah Joines Family, from Kentucky: the Joines Families from Giles County, Tennessee: and several other lines. I would be glad to share any information that I have, and I would appreciate any help. Please visit the Joines Family Home Page. Eldon Dean Joines

I have no idea if these three men are related or how.

THE NASHVILLE TENNESSEAN, Friday Morning, Sept. 13, 1946
Miss Bringhurst Withdraws Suit For $100,000 CHICAGO
A 21-year-old blonde from France, who sued a former soldier she discovered was married for $100,000 alleging breach of promise, dropped her suit yesterday. The girl's attorney. Sol R. Friedman, announced after Circuit Judge Harry Fisher dismissed the suit on motion of the plaintiff, that there had been a "satisfactory settlement" but declined to state any amount.
Miss Marie Ann Bringhurst, who came here recently, charged in her suit that George Pitzer, 27, of Chicago, whom she met in Mourmelon, France, asked her there to marry him and promised to meet her in Chicago. She said that when she came to Chicago in June, she called Pitzer's home and learned he already was married and was the father of a child. The suit was filed several weeks later. Miss Bringhurst, who was reared in Nashville, Tenn., where she formerly lived with her aunt, Mrs. Harry Titus 3421 Love Circle, went to France with her mother six years ago.
Marie Ann Bringhurst Was Reared in Nashville
Marie Ann Bringhurst, the niece of Mrs. Harry Titus, 3421 Love Circle, went to France with her mother shortly before the outbreak of the recent war and they were forced to remain during the German occupation. In Paris, she worked with the French underground. She returned to the United States last February.

The only information I have on Barbara is from the 1875 State Census and the 1880 Federal Census.

Barbara almost certainly had Huntington's Disease and passed it to son, Fred. Fred passed it to his sons Cecil and James and daughter Naomi. Those people passed it to their children and the list goes on.

I went to Batavia yesterday, in search of some Records for Frederick and Barbara Senn. I went to four separate buildings and hit on two documents for them. One was the "Record of Aliens and Naturalization of Aliens - Vol. 1 Thru Vol.6" listing Sann, Frederick RA 1865 Prussia - V3, Pg. 622. This document is dated 26 Oct. 1865, at the Genesee County Court of Sessions, City of Batavia, State of New York, and it has Frederick's broken signature written as Frederick Sann. It states that [he] "has resided in the United States for more than five years last past, and that for at least three years before he arrived at the age of twenty-one years, he had so resided within the United States." ... Sworn oaths were taken, by Godfrey Lake and Gideon Hawkins, testifying as to his upstanding character. It is interesting to note, that the Litt sisters were housekeepers for Godfrey Lake, and that Frederick was married to Clara Litt in 1861. Frederick had also owned the adjoining property next to the John Litt family on Lake Road, until he'd later bought the larger nearby farm acreage on Cohocton Road in the Town of Pembroke. I also found the Land Record of when he sold that farm property, which was signed by Frederick Senn and "Barbary" Senn, his wife. It seems that she made her Mark (X) and they had filled in her written name as both Barbery (above) & Barbary (signed). ... It was recorded on the 5th day of December, 1885. It was sold to Henry P. Porter, the former owner of a general store in Corfu.

The Social Security Administration created these records to track the earnings of US workers and determine benefit entitlements. The publishable index only contains information for deceased individuals and was gathered from all three record types in the collection: applications, deaths, and claims. Each compiled record includes fields for the name of the deceased, social security number, parents' names, gender, birth city and state or country, birth date, and death date.
