This is an excerpt from the Eastman Online Genealogy Newsletter:
- Family History Television Seeks Your Input
OK, it is time to take the wraps off something. While it has not
yet been formally announced, some of you who were at the recent
National Genealogical Society annual conference in Portland,
Oregon may already be aware of a number of television camera crews
in the Exhibitor's Hall on Friday and Saturday. You may also have
seen me holding a microphone and standing in front of a television
camera, sometimes alone and at other times interviewing various
people. The camera crews are from The Studio, Inc., and they have
a major project underway that will be of interest to genealogists
all over the United States. Now they are seeking your input.
The Studio, Inc., isn't exactly a stranger to genealogy. In the
past 13 months they have produced more than 20 genealogy and
family history videos, using several well-known genealogy experts
as hosts. I have reviewed a number of these videos in this
newsletter, and I believe there will be even more videos released
in the near future.
During the NGS 2001 conference, crews from The Studio conducted
interviews with experts in attendance and documented some of the
convention. Producer Stephen Lemmon of The Studio plans to develop
a television series dealing with the subject of family history.
Judging from their track record, they are serious about what they
say. Several well-known genealogy experts are involved with this
potential new television show. The large genealogy conference in
Portland was an excellent place to find genealogy products,
services and experts. I was asked to host a segment of this series
that highlights some of the products represented in the exhibit
hall. We hope that this part of Family History Television will
become a TV version of this newsletter.
The Studio is looking for input in a short survey. They would like
to know if you are interested in such a Family History Television
program, what type of content you would like to see, and whether
you prefer it to be carried on cable, satellite, or both. They are
not collecting any personal data or e-mail addresses for marketing
in any way. You will notice that they never ask for your name,
address, telephone number or e-mail address.
If you would like to see television programming for family history
become available, please take a minute and fill out a short on-
line survey at http://www.familyhistory.tv/survey.

Looking for data on Jeremiah Clayton, b. 22 May 1803. He is shown in 1850
PA Census, for Bristol Twp., Philadelphia Co., with wife Anna M. [what was
her maiden name?] and children, Conrad, Susan, Elizabeth and George.
This is not my family, but am researching it for a relative.

Hi I am seeking information regarding the parents of my late grandfather
George Clayton who was born in the Thomas Street area of Hyde Cheshire in
1897.All other sources in the U.K. have so far proved unsuccessful.Any

Also does anyone have information concerning our coats of arms. I presently
live in South Australia,but did live in the township of Hyde for 26 years.
Yours Gratefully,

Hello Everyone...
Several CLAYTON "cousins" are trying to piece together the several CLAYON
familes who came to the Lowndes County area from Barnwell District, South
Carolina before 1840. Anyone connected to any these families please contact
CandyOtte(a)aol.com and share any bits of info you have on them. I feel
these families are related and would welcome input from anyone to disprove or
prove my theory which follows. We each have facts on our own branches of
the family and these facts need to be put together in some way.
1) Joseph W. Clayton born abt 1805 and his wife Harriet ?
2) John T. Clayton born abt 1800 - daughter Susannah born 1822 (John T.'s
wife was Levinia Jeter daughter of Samuel Jeter (d. 1808) and Susannah Pryor.
Levinia died before her daughter was a year old.)
3) Daniel W. Clayton and his wife Elizabeth Brooke daughter of Thomas
Brooke (d 1818 is S.C.) and his wife Susannah Pryor, widow of Samuel Jeter)
4) Isham H. Clayton and his wife Susannah (widow of both Samuel Jeter and
Thomas Brooke) Isham may be the father of the three Clayton gentlemen
listed above by a previous marriage. All 4 families came to Lowndes County
about the same time from Barnwell District South Carolina.
5) John Allen born abt 1805, son of James Allen and Ann Bryan of Barnwell
S.C. and his wife Eliza Jeter also came to Lowndes County about the same
time. Eliza Jeter was also the daughter of Susannah Pryor and Samuel Jeter.
6) Forma Clayton born abt 1823, daughter of Isham H and Susannah #(4) above
married Ransom T. Prescott
7) Jackson Clayton born abt 1827 also son of Isham H and Susannah married
Martha ?
8) Duncan Clayton born 1829 also a son of Isham H. and Susannah married
Anna C. Zeigler
9) Alminia Brooke born 1816 daughter of Susannah and Thomas Brooke - we
know nothing more on Alminia, except she was age 22 in 1838 and living with
Elizabeth and Daniel Clayton according to a letter written by my ancestor her
brother Thomas Tobias Brooke.
10) Thomas Tobias Brooke born 1812, son of Susannah and Thomas Brooke who
married first Mary Deloach (d 1841) and second to Nancy Yerby... this family
moved to Florida by 1850 and to Volusia County Florida by 1860 and are My
Direct ancestors.
11) Sarah Brooke born 1818, youngest daughter of Susannah and Thomas Brooke
who married Jesse P. Prescott (brother of Ransom who married her half sister
Forma Clayton.
ANYONE CONNECTED TO ANY OF THESE FAMILIES Please contact
CandyOtte(a)aol.com.... you may have the key to these families and their common
relationships to both the CLAYTON - BROOKE families and Susannah Jeter,
mother of several of the above folks.
Thanks
