Thanks for letting me know about the books, Sherry. I am interested, however, I need to figure out a way to come up with the money. Unfortunately, I am on a military budget and don't have much extra spending cash. I'll let you know something as soon as I find out.
Thanks so much!

Isabella CHRISTIAN was born in 1861 in Scott County,
Virginia to Martin CHRISTIAN and Ailsey (?). She
married 1st a TEMPLETON. She was widowed per the
marriage license when she married on 27 May 1900 to
Joseph W. COX in Scott County, Virginia. I know of one
son, Lucian COX. Isabella died before 02 Feb 1909.
Joseph W. COX was born in 1877 in Hawkins County,
Tennessee to Emanuel R. COX and Elizabeth CHRISTIAN; was
listed in the 1900 Scott County, Virginia census as a
farmer; and later was evidently killed by dynamite while
working on a road.
And the hunt continues ....

My direct ancestor is Elizabeth CHRISTIAN, b Nov 1847 in
Hawkins County, Tennessee to Joseph U. CHRISTIAN (1824-
c1886) and Sallie/Sarah CHRISTIAN (c1828-b1868).
Elizabeth m1 James CHRISTIAN, a cousin, as his 2nd wife,
on 10 Nov 1867. I know of at least 2 children, Sarah
CHRISTIAN b 1868 and David CHRISTIAN b 1870.
James CHRISTIAN had m1 on 11 Dec 1856 to Sarah/Sally
RICE. No known children for Sarah/Sally RICE and James
CHRISTIAN. James is not on the 1870 census. Did he die
and was his son, David CHRISTIAN, born after he died?
What happened to James CHRISTIAN?
Elizabeth m2 on 17 Dec 1871 in Hawkins County, Tennessee
to Emanuel R. Cox (son of Samuel COX and Barbary
HAMMOND). Elizabeth CHRISTIAN and Samuel R. COX (about
1808-about 1889) had 9 children: George Washington COX
(b about 1873), William A. COX (b about 1875), Joseph W.
COX (b 1877), Samuel Rufus COX (1878-1936), Mary COX
(twin to Samuel) (b 1878), Elizabeth Frances COX (1880-
1966), Neil Michael COX (about 1883-1923), Jennie P. COX
(1885-1971) and Margie COX (b May 1889).
I have a picture of Elizabeth CHRISTIAN COX and a
sister. But which sister ... Dicie CHRISTIAN, Martha S.
CHRISTIAN ANDERSON, or Tilda CHRISTIAN SHORT???
Brothers to Elizabeth CHRISTIAN COX were Frank
CHRISTIAN, Samuel A. CHRISTIAN (b1870), Abraham N.
CHRISTIAN (1871-1956), David CHRISTIAN, Michael
CHRISTIAN (b about 1855), William J. CHRISTIAN (b about
1865) and Thomas B. CHRISTIAN (b 1867).

I'm glad you said it like it is, I wish there were 9 Books, nicely indexed and searchable online! So far the best I have found are the Christian Chronicles (Two Volumes) located in the Texas State Library - unfortunately none of our line Joseph George, Lucius, Adalane Christian, all children of Joseph and Harriet Christian of Iola, Texas. What is there are tons of other Tenn, VA, PA, NY, CA, KY, and everybody elses lines!
Anyway, I agree, its SPAMing. If it ain't, send your 9 books to me and I'll digitize them and put them online where they can be used by all researchers! I attached a photo of the real thing!
I descend from Clerinda's fourth child, Verlena. Looking to contact any
descendents of John and Elizabeth Christian.
Scott
The following is about all I have:
I have come up with little on the Christian family from which we descend
directly from with the marriage of John Christian Jr and Rebecca Maddox.
1. John Christian Sr, b. unk; m. Elizabeth Stockton/Stogland, b. unk. It
is not known where they died or are buried at. Apparently they moved to
Overton Co, TN, as a Linda Christian reports finding
"plently of land transactins with these two in Overton Co."
1. John Christian Jr, b. 1804, KY; m. (1st) 1823, Overton Co, TN, Rebecca
(Jane?) Maddox, b. 1804, KY. About 1855 they moved to Jefferson Co, IL.
Rebecca d. there about 1872. John m. (2nd) 30 Oct 1873, Jefferson Co, IL,
Charity Jackson Bickmore, b. unk, d. 1887. Her death records will be found
in Jefferson Co, IL. John may have died in Jefferson Co, IL, or moved in
with one of his children. Linda Christian reports two of his children lived
in Arkansas and one in Texas.
Doris Newbury reports John and Rebecca lived also in Marion Co, IL. She
reports John and Rebecca moved with their children, a married son, Gilbert,
his unnamed wife, and their son, John W. Christian. This John, Doris
reports, is her husband's great grandfather, on his mother's side. Doris
also writes, "Eliza Jane Christian was the oldest child of John & Rebecca
Christian. She married Stephen Newbury, who was a brother to my husband's
great grandfather, Joseph Newbury".
John and Rebecca Christian had five children:
1. Gilbert H. Christian, b. maybe 1829, Overton Co, TN; m. Lydia WILSON,
b. unk. Gilbert fought on the Union side during the Civil War. They had
five children:
1. Eliza Jane Christian, b. unk; m. Stephen NEWBURY. Eliza d.
Austin, Bastrop Co, TX.
2. Anny Christian, b. unk.
3. Nimrod Christian, b. unk; m. 1861, IL, Josephine NELMS, b. unk.

For my connnection, read the following. CHRISTIAN is listed the second
paragraph which starts out, "Nearly two years following..."
Scott
Berry Derwood Jones is the ninth and last child of William Howard and Nancy
J. Ledbetter Jones. Berry was born 6 October 1864 and died 29 August 1940
in Alpine, Tennessee. Berry is buried in Greenhill Cemetery, having the
only pup tent style grave there. The headstone was still easily read as of
16 May 2000 when Scott Jones visited the gravesite. Berry's death
certificate listed cause of death as "Carcinoma of stomach". Also noted on
the certificate was that he suffered from senility. Speck Funeral Home
handled the arrangements.
Berry first married Margaret Elizabeth Sells. She was born 25 April 1862
and died 13 December 1892. She is buried in the Robbins Cemetery. Her
parents are still being determined.
Berry and Margaret had two daughters. The daughters were ages six and nine
when Margaret died.
1. Corinthia Jones, b. 25 Dec 1883; d. 1956, Oak Grove, TN, and buried in
Robbins Cemetery, m. William Elmer LEDFORD as his second wife. They had
eight children. See Corinthia Jones and The Ledford Connection for more
information.
2. Leona Jones, b. 2 Aug 1886; d. 19 Sep 1916; m. 23 Jun 1909, Overton
County, Harrison LEDBETTER. They had two children. See the following pages

Nearly two year following the death of his first wife, Berry Derwood Jones
married Velenar "Lena" Ramsey on 28 October 1894. Lena was born 11 March
1869 and died 19 January 1928. Cause of death on her death certificate is
listed as "Cancer of breast". Her parents are listed as Chanson Ramsey and
Clerinda A. CHRISTIAN, both born in Tennessee. Lena was one-quarter
Cherokee, taken from her mother's side of the family.
Note: A picture of Berry, Lena, and all their children was published in the
Overton County Tennessee Pictorial History on page 107.
Note of Interest on Ramsey: Lena's parents are Chanson Ramsey who was born
17 Dec 1840 to Charles and Mary Dishman Ramsey. He died 25 Apr 1909.
Chanson married Clerinda A. Christian (d/o John Christian Jr and Rebecca
(Jane?) Maddox). She was born 7 Dec 1834 and died 23 Mar 1915. For more

I do not know if you received the last email I sent since when I sent it I did not totally understand how to "moderate" it properly (still learning a little here and there). Mostly since I have never felt the need to do it before.
Anyway just in case:
I said lets have a ROLL CALL
For those of you who are new there are a couple basic rules that make it easier for all.
1.. DO NOT put Roll Call in the subject line. Put the name of your ancestor and pertinent information for example mine might read Matilda Christian IN/IL/KY/MO
2.. IN the body area include information like Married William Mull probably born 10 July 1850 in VA or W. VA. Children born from about 1873 to 1890. I have Louis Mull born 3 Sept 1880 in Warrick Co, IN, Peal Mull was born abt 1881 and one brother (don't remember which right now and have not yet added it to my database) in Cape Gerardue Co. MO. and two unnamed (on Birth certificate) children were born in 1887 and 1890 in Vanderburgh Co, IN. I have been told she died in New Haven, IL about 1908. I was told by my grandfather that Matilda had 4 brothers who fought in the Civil War for the Confederates. I have not been able to find any record of four brothers fighting but when I spoke with my grandfather again he said it was possible that some were cousins since often cousins moved in to the house hold. He also thought they had all died but I suspect that two were wounded. At one time I thought I had figured them out but then I let the information sit for awhile and do not reme!
mber where it is right now.
3.. IF you have more then one line please make separate posts. This is a small list and it is easier to find relations this way.
Thanks,
Liesa
I moderated this list for a little while and since I have not seen any
further in appropriate emails I am opening it back up. Here is an email that
was sent while it was moderated. (That is why it says {not a subscriber})
