Has anyone seen a text called "A Christian Behind Every Tree and a Crump on
Every Stump"?
Someone told me that it was about Christians & Crumps in either Kent or New
Kent Co., VA.
I want to see it, if only to find out why the Christians were behind the
trees.

Not sure of any connection but my ancestor George Morgan Waters had a
granddaughter Kate who married a man named Christian in Ga. He also had
a great grandaughter name Williamina Cleland who married a John
Christian probably in Ga. and had a daughter Mary Christian. George M.
Waters was born in 1877. Williamina Cleland b. about 1854. Any of
these names fit your notes? Kathy WAters

I am new to the list and am trying to figure-out who some "loose-ends" are.
>From JACKSON COUNTY ALABAMA MARRIAGES 1851-1856 AND BOOK A 1859-1871:
Christian, Benjamin F. to Mary Webb 17 Apr 1856 P.303
Christian, John L. to Lucinda Cargile 01 Nov 1867 P.545 L.869
Christian, Judith L. to Fountain Racer McDonald 16 Mar 1852 No Return
Christian, Manerva to Winfield S. Hagwood 06 Jan 1867 P.446 L.672
John, and Minerva are all accounted for in my records.
I have nothing on who Benjamin F. was.
I have a Judith L. that was born about 1850 and married a Mr. Hill in 1881.
Who was this Judith L.?
>From MARRIAGES OF JACKSON COUNTY ALABAMA 1871-1876 AND 1876-1881

G. W. (George W.), Judia L. (should be Judith), Manie (should be Zanie),
N. S. (Nancy Susan), and Nancy are accounted for in my records.
I do not know who Mattie, Polly A. or S. E. are.
Any help out there??

I have just found out that a Sarah H. POSEY, daughter of Thomas
POSEY and Mary HODGKINS, may be my ancestor. She supposedly
married William B. CHRISTIAN and lived in Elbert Co. GA until about
1827. Then they moved to Newton Co. GA until late 1830, then they moved
to Fayette Co. GA.
I descend from their possible daugher, Lucinda Jane CHRISTIAN. Lucinda
and her twin sister Eliza Jane were born on 2 Nov 1819. Lucinda married
Nathaniel SHELLNUT in Fayette Co. GA in 1829 and Eliza married Barney
WESTBROOK in Fayette Co. GA in 1837. Nathaniel and Lucinda settled
in Carroll Co. GA, where Nathaniel founded the town of Bowdon.
Any relatives out there? Any additions or corrections to this info?

My most distant ancestor, Elisha Clement Bennett Christian, was born in
1807, closely parallelling your Danniel Bennett. Mine ECBC was born in
Culpepper Co., VA. Possible we connect?
Thanks.

Sorry... I should have included more specific locations.
The first couple of generations came from Switzerland. The following generations lived in Schuylkill Co, PA, in Schuylkill Haven, Pottsville and Port Carbon. The Jacob Christian family lived in
Denver, Co.

Hello all,
I am seeking any information on Ellison Christian, who died before 1794 in
probably Greenbrier Co Va. I believe that he had a son, Ellison Jr, that
married Sally Acord (Ecort) in Monroe Co Va in 1808. I have recently learned
(from a very qualified researcher) that Ellison, Sr. was probably a brother
to Allen Christian of Bedford and Franklin Co's. Va. This has not been
proven, but per tax lists and land transactions, these two moved together
several times, including an arrival together on East River, in present day
Mercer Co WV, in 1788.
I believe that Ellison Christian Sr. was my 4thG. Grandfather, but I'm far
from proving this. If anyone has these Christians in their database, I'd
appreciate hearing from you.
Sincerely,
Jonathan Christian
Do you have any locations for your Christians? Mine went from NY to
Branch Co MI sometime between 1820 and 1850. --Ed Day
