Hi,
I am seeking information on Benjamin F. CHARLES and family. Hoping to find
descendants to coordinate research.
Earliest instance with family is in Hamilton Co., OHIO in 1860 census.
Benjamin F. Charles b. abt 1822 PA
Mary (Johnson?) b. abt 1823 PA
(children)
David M. Charles b. abt 1847 PA
Daniel W. Charles b. abt 1852 PA
Mary Charles b. abt 1854 PA
Samuel E. Charles b. abt 1857 PA
William Fremont Charles b. 29 Jun 1860 PA (direct line ancestor)
1850 census of PA indicates two Benjamin Charles, one of which is a
Benjamin F. Charles. One family is clearly not what I'm looking for and the
other is a single male who could match but alas no family! Both are listed
in Lancaster Co.,PA.
Family tradition states that immigrant ancestor was from Germany and
anglicized name to Charles upon arrival. I have found that many of the
Charles of Lancaster Co., PA are descended from Hienrich Karli (Henry
Charles) of Switzerland who immigrated in 1737. See http://palam.org/#iareg
Would appreciate any help.
Sincerely,
Sam Silvey
My g-grandmother was Laura Charles, born in Texas, in 1867. Her father was
Frank Charles. Frank disappeared shortly after her birth. Frank's father
was William T. Charles who was born about 1818 in AR (probably); I do not
have informaiton on when he died or where. His father was Isaac Newton
Charles (m. Jane Scrimshire) and he was supposedly part of the Austin 300
original anglo settlers of Texas about 1822. I do not know his origins.
W. T. Charles had sisters who were living at the end of the 19th century in
"Carolina".

Hello list,
My family starts w/Philip Charles(I believe). He shows up in KY on the 1820
census in Estill Co., Ky. I can't exactly prove that he is the father to my
Joseph Charles born there in 1810. He is the only Charles listed and has a
son that age.
Where did Philip come from and who did he belong too, and who were his
siblings? I am also looking for Joseph's siblings and what happen to them
and also to some of Joseph's children. Any help or suggestions are
welcomed.

Lookng for information on eastern KY CHARLES.
Philip CHARLES was born Bef. 1794. He married Fanny POWELL in Estill Co
KY. She was born Abt. 1807. Believe he was maried prior to Fanny.
Below is one of the few references I have found for Philip CHARLES...
21 Jul 1819, Nicholas Burgher to David Snowden, John Graham, Moses, McMaham,
and Philip Charles, Trustees of the Salem Baptist,Church, for $75, south
side of Red River, being part of the tract deeded to Nicholas Burgher by
Archillius Eubank.
Would appreciate any clues on Philip's family. I descend from his son
.......... Joseph CHARLES 1800 -

Thanks,

I am looking for Charles' in the Lancashire, UK area. My g-g-grandmother,
Sarah Charles was born in Manchester in 1859 and her brother, John, was
born in Manchester or Wigan in 1862. About all else we know about John is
that he was a miner in the Wigan area and was nursed by Sarah and her
daughter while he suffered a lung disease in 1902. We believe he died at
that time, but have not been able to verify this. There are family rumors
of a cousin who joined Sarah and her daughter on their emigration to Canada
in 1903/1904, but we don't know anything about this cousin.
Sarah married Joseph Alakavish sometime between Christmas, 1881 and
February, 1891. The earlier part of this time period is most likely as I
ordered a marriage certificate for them, but was informed that there was no
marriage found for them between 1887-1891. In 1891 they traveled to Brazil
for Joseph to work on the railroad. Their first child, Marion, was born in
Sao Paolo in August, 1891 and died in November (at the time of a yellow
fever outbreak). Sarah and Joseph returned to Liverpool by 1892. Their
second daughter (and surviving child), Nellie, Evelyn, was born in
February, 1893 in Liverpool. Their son, Joseph William Charles, was born
in March, 1896 and died in September of meningitis.
We know what school Nellie attended and are fairly sure what church the
family was associated with in Liverpool. We know that they were settled in
Raymond, Alberta, Canada by May 1904 and have many details of their lives
from that point on. What we are having problems with is the early
Liverpool period, and finding any information whatsoever about the previous
generation.
Any other Lancashire researchers out there?

We have several new members to the list, and I am sure they are wondering
about the current members and there families. Therefore I am asking that we
all repost to the list how we are related to the Charles family, and what
brick walls we have hit in our reserach. Please remember that we have
several different ancestors that came to this country and if possible
identify them. Also it is probably best to start with your grandparents
and work backwards, unless you do not know them. Please do not post any
current vital information.
For starters: My grandfather was Andrew Jackson Charles (1832-1917) who
married Sarah Mariah Hunt (1844-1904) and lived in the Schuyler, Tompkins,
Chemung county areas. He was a veteran of the Civil War. His father was
James Charles who moved from Brimfield, Mass area with his wife Laura
Doolittle Charles to the Schuyler county area in 1832. He was a veteran of
the War of 1812. His father was Thomas Charles who fought in the Rev. War.
He married Phebe Bond. His father was Aaron Charles who also fought in the
Rer. War, and married Elizabeth Burt. Going back from Aaron I have three
generations of John Charles, the first of whom probably arrived in this
country about 1636, in the Boston, Mass area, but moved to the New Haven
Conn area soon after his arrival.
