Hello;
My name is: Lester Flud Clayton
I was born in Washington NC 8/27/35
I will be 62 in August and I am a retired Architect
I also spent time in the Navy as an EM-2
I went to Clemson U.in SC.
I have an older sister by 10 years, her name is
Augusta Clayton, she was born in Sumter in 1925,
I have an older brother by 13 years his name is
James Ralph Clayton Jr, born in Sumter CS in 1922.
I am trying to find out about my father's family. My father was quiet
about his family and my grandfather was dead before I can remember.
I don't know much about my connection to the Clayton chain
but I am going to try.and find out.
My father was the youngest of five children his older brother was named
Will (William I think) Clayton he died in the first world war.
The oldest sister was Rosa Clayton,
next Lela Clayton and then
Love Clayton who married Sam Smith a railroad eng. Who died in a train
wreak and her son Sam Jr died in WW.2 at San`loue France in the hedge
rowes..
My father James Ralph Clayton was born in 1811 in North or South
Carolina or maybe Alabama
his mother's first name (she was called Carrie)
The best clue I think I've found is Nancy Love, and Lela Clifford Riley
Any pointers would be appreciated.
Thank's
Les Clayton

Hi Everyone,
Below is the Clayton line I'm working on, descending to my husband William
Clark b. 1945.
I understand there's a question as to the parents of William Clayton b. 1632,
wife Prudence Lanckford. I have heard that a Thomas Clayton b. 1598 in
London, and Mary Thompson could be the parents. I like to hear from anyone
researching this line.

Hi, Clayton Researchers:
First, I sure would love to see more traffic on this mailing list. I pay
a small fee to Roots-L in order to have them make this list available,
and while I certainly don't mind paying it, I would like to see it be
more beneficial to the subscribers. I suggest posting at least the main
names and counties/states that you are interested in every month or so.
We are always getting new subscribers, and it would be most helpful to
them.
If anyone has information on any of the following topics, please post to
the list.
REUNIONS
PUBLICATIONS that deal specifically with CLAYTON
WEB PAGES that have CLAYTON surname primarily as the focus
I got a big piece of my Clayton puzzle from someone who read my post to
the Roots L Mailing list. Am copying it to the group for anyone else
concerned.

On another note, the good people at Roots-L have been putting a great
deal of time and effort into improving the mailing list options. There
is a search request feature available. I have copied the instructions
for you. If you have any questions about using this feature, let me
know. If I can't sort it out for you, I can get some help.
------
Search requests are sent to the -request for the mailing list. The
subject line should say: archive
If I wanted to search for the name Rowland, the command I'd use would be
search Rowland latest/*
Put all together, it would look like this:
To: Rowland-L-request(a)rootsweb.com
Subject: archive
--------
search Rowland latest/*
The search Rowland part is probably clear. What's that latest/* on the
end? Your archived messages (up to
8000 of them) are stored in an area associated with your mailing list
called latest. The * is a wildcard -- it says to
search all the messages for Rowland. If you had said instead search
Rowland latest/1* then the search
would be confined to messages whose number starts with 1 (such as 10, 15,
111, 1254, etc.) I don't think you
can specify a range -- if you wrote 23-27 it wouldn't search messages 23
through 27, it would look for a
message numbered 23-27, not find it, and give up. That is, this search is
kind of simple minded. But that makes
it easier to use? (If the list is instead a digested list, the command
instead would be search Rowland
volume97/* to search all the digests in volume97, which is where the 1997
digests are stored.)
What do you get back? Something like this:

Subject: archive retrieval: search Rowland latest/*

BEGIN---------------cut here------------------
latest/12:24:> Rowland family and the German Baptist Brethren
church
latest/16:23:My Great-grandfather, Baptist Rev. Homer Rowland of the
Flatonia, Texas
latest/16:24:area, was the son of Judge Robert A. Rowland and Olive Ann
(Keithley)
latest/16:25:Rowland of Howard County, Missouri. (Married 7 April 1846,
probably in Boone
latest/46:26:Thomas Rowland, Hary Grigsby and A. Grigsby, attended his
funeral. After
latest/47:22:... His brothers and his nephews, Thomas Rowland, Harry
Grigsby and A.
latest/47:25:Note on this sentence: Thomas Rowland was a son of Olive
Keithley Rowland,
latest/47:26:wife of Robert A. Rowland. Harry and A. Grigsby were sons
of Sarah Keithley
What do you do with that? Well, first, note that odd "Reply-to:" line.
It's bound to alarm some of your
subscribers, but is actually innocuous. It's either to prevent mail loops
or perhaps to make sure that the subject
line when they order the messages isn't "Subject: Re: archive retrieval."
(SmartList doesn't process messages
with subject lines like that, it sends 'em straight to you.) The rest of
the report is a listing of lines in which it
found Rowland (I think if you want ROWLAND you should ask for ROWLAND,
though those of you who
know grep might try something like search -i Rowland latest/* to see what
happens).
Consider this line:
latest/47:26:wife of Robert A. Rowland. Harry and A. Grigsby were sons
of Sarah Keithley
The first bit, before the first colon, is latest/47. That says that this
line is from 47. The next bit, between the two
colons, is 26 -- the line shown is the 26th line of that messages. And
the rest of it is the line from the message
itself.
If you want to see the whole message, you can. You again write to the
list's -request address, using a subject
line that says archive" The command is get latest/47 to get the 47th
message (or get volume97/23 to get
the 23rd digest from 1997.) SmartList is very finicky about case. get
Latest/47 will not work. Extra spaces
confuse it, too -- note that there are no spaces in latest/47. Put
together, the message looks something like this:
To: KEITHLEY-L-request(a)rootsweb.com
Subject: archive
--------
get latest/47
What you will get back is a copy of that piece of mail.
---
Thanks for all of your help and support to keep this mailing list
meaningful.
