Subject: DCO- Newbies-beware
This is for the newbies and was sent to me from another list. Everyone beware of the scams.I know this is long, but worth it if it will save you money.
Gloria
THE UPDATE FIRST
I'll begin here so those of you who already know about Family Discovery
(and their sister site, GenSeekers) can be on your merry way ....
A new letter from them is circulating now... one that promotes a service
that sounds like something that as a genealogist, you're really afraid
to pass up (those records... all those records!). The newest message
will probably have a subject line of "Thanks for your help
Genealogist..."
Are you concerned that you'll be missing out by not signing up with
Family Discovery? Would you like to know what you're missing if you
don't get in on the "special offer"? Click on this link
<http://www.familydiscovery.com/members/>. It will take you directly
inside their site where you can walk around and have a really good
look.
Once done, please spread the word. Don't let other cousins, friends and
newbies get suckered by these scam artists.
I also want to let you know that Gene Olson has done some research and
found the following current list of sites related to Family Discovery in
one way or another:
genealogyfinders.comgenealogyfinders.netaboent.comfamilydiscovery.comgenseeker.comgenealogy-express.com
If these sites are anything like Family Discovery, hide your wallet,
checkbook, credit card, and run! :)
He has now set up a message board on his site for discussion of Family
Discovery and her sister sites. Want to find out more or comment about
the subject?... head for Gene's Anti Family Discovery site at
<http://www.compuright.net/familydiscovery/>.
FOR THE NEWEST COUSINS
Okay, so I did this backwards, the newest news first. However, please
know that the subject of Family Discovery is NOT new. To save time,
this is a copy and paste from the main portion of my message to everyone
on January 19th. It lays out the whole story. I post it here again just
for you newest cousins...
Family Discovery is just what I said in the last sentence... rip-offs.
This is becoming an old subject among those of us who have been doing
online genealogy for a while, but you need to be made aware...
Family Discovery links their pages to Rootsweb sites and archive pages,
GenWeb sites, and privately owned sites ... sites on which all the
information is already FREE! They are doing this without permission and
are currently under investigation.
Please, heed the warning. A new ad from them is going around telling
you that if you'll join by Friday, 2 Feb, you'll pay "a one time access
fee of ONLY $49.00 with absolutely nothing to pay EVER again..."
While I'm at it, I'd better warn you of their newest, sister site...
GenSeeker, in case another message is floating around that I'm not aware
of yet. Though I haven't heard any more about it from anyone (yet),
it's still a site owned by the same person(s) and building itself under
the same premise as Family Discovery. I've been to their newest site
and seen what they're up to. Instead of the "special rate" you're
charged $20 more. However, when clicking on their "freesearch link,"
the unwary customer is taken to the familydiscovery.com site.
GenSeeker describes itself as "the most comprehensive easy to use
collection of online records ever compiled." Of course it is, if they
link to every free website they can find! Save your money and do the
search yourself! You DO NOT need to pay for a service that is already
free if you know where to look. If you need assistance, send a message
to the list and state in the top line of your message that you're a
newbie needing help; you'll probably get more than you can handle! :)
Gene Olson has an Anti-FamilyDiscovery.com update list from his
website. He has been working to close down both sites and is still on
their trail. You newbies to online genealogy would be wise to go to his
site and read up on this company so you won't be ripped off. Click on
the following link and you'll be taken directly to his site:
<http://www.compuright.net/familydiscovery>. Gene's new email address
is <gene_olson(a)bigfoot.com>. His toll-free number is 1-877-319-9699.
I tried to access familydiscovery.com just a moment ago. It seems the
entire site is now password protected. Hmmm... I wonder why...<br clear=all><hr>Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at <a href="http://explorer.msn.com">http://explorer.msn.com</a><br></p>
Hi, All,
I'm back after being off the list for a while.
Today, I got the following message from a family member. I hope that
someone on this list can help her.
> On the 1850 Census of Hall County, GA there is M. E. Coates 18 Female > in the house of David Henderson McCleskey.
>
> D. H. McCleskey 60 M SC
> M. " 65 F GA
> M. E. Coates 18 F GA
>
> Do you have any idea who this person might be?
D.H. McCleskey is David Henderson McCleskey, s/o James McCleskey and
Isabella Rhea. He was born 2 August 1783 in Abbeville Dist., SC. He
would have been 67 instead of 60 ad the message shows.
M. McCleskey is Martha Ivey Jarrett, d/o Howell Jarrett and Jane Smiley
Coates. She was born 9 April 1875 in Wilkes Co., GA.
Jane Smiley Coates is believed to have been the daughter of Nathaniel
Coates and Martha Lamar.
The M.E. Coates of the census record could have been some kind of
maternal relative of Martha Ivey Jarrett McCleskey. Does anyone know
who she was?
Margaret McCleskey, Arlington, TX
Val, lives close to Newberry...anyway, some notes from her....Char

I know this is a mixed bag of information.
I have dates for most all of the above. I copied practically the whole book.
It is full of great info. The Quaker M H on the Mills Map IS the Bush River Monthy Meeting site, below Newberry Village.
"Bush River and Cane Creek Meetings of South Carolina became the seed-bed of Midwestern Quakerism as Friends moved first to the Miami Valley of Ohio, then to Wayne Co., Indiana,and on the Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Oregon, Cal. and Texas. Having seen the evils of slavery first hand, these transplanted Southerners became leaders in the antislavery movement and assisted in the rescue of hundreds of slaves through the Underground Railroad. "
>From Equity Book 1840
David Boyd died 1829 leaving his widow Polly (who married Van Davis in 1830) and daughter Martha Jane Boyd. He died leaving 100 acres "Till Tract" bounded by James Garner__-ETc
Equity 1820 (Check this for Davis/ Hunter/Abernathy-Val)
James Teague died Apr 1816 with LWT in which he gave 100 acres to his wife Elizabeth. Elizabeth Teague (widow) remarried Jacob Crouch. She died intestate leaving her husband Jacob Crouch and children; Dorothy G.

Subject: Quakers
A bit more info from the Medlin book.
Quakers have been in SC since 1666, and few groups have had such an impact for their size as have these simple, peaceful Friends. From the founding of Charleston in 1670 until the establishment of the Church of England in 1705, the Friends played a major role ------------
The total number of Quaker families throughout the 175 yr. period from 1666 to 1840 was only around 1000 in both SC and Ga., with a total of around 9000 inidviduals. Nearly 1900 of these 2000 families are identified in this book
About two-thirds of these Quakers were located in the Piedmont region during the brief period from 1750 to 1820. In 1801 most Friends began leaving for the Midwest because of their opposition to slavery. By 1840 there were no Meetings still strong enough to have regularly scheduled worship and many of the remaining members joined other churches. By 1900 there were probably no more than a dozen Quakers left in SC and Ga.
While Quaker records are generally more detailed and more complete than those of other churches for this period of time, they have been subjected to loss by fires, floods etc. Most of the surviving records for SC and Ga are housed atGuilford College in Greensboro, NC , at Haverford College in Pa, and at Wilmington College in Ohio. The author will pay a reward of $1000 for the lost records of Wateree Meeting at Camden.
Some persons entered the Society of Friends in SC and Ga by convincement, or by applying for membership. A number of these appear to have been attracted by sympathy with the Quaker testimonies against war and slavery and by the Friends high personal moral standards. Some became Quakers because they wished to marry a Quaker. It should be noted that a number of those applying for membership in SC had been born Quakers but disowned by Meetings in other colonies, and were merely seeking restoration here. There were many "broken families" in Sc. with one parent still a Quaker, and one still disowned.
(This is very interesting!!)----The most prominent Quaker at Wateree , Samuel Wyly, died in 1768 with personal property appraised at 8135 pounds. Surprisingly, he OWNED 25 SLAVES. (there follows a quite extensive list of possessions, including books valued at 30 pounds, Quaker classics.He was a successful merchant and surveyor)
A number of Upcountry Friends combined a service occupation with their farming. Thus, Samuel Russell and Israel Gaunt did blacksmithing, John Wright,Sr. was a shoemaker, John Edmundson and Joseph Smith manufactured screw augers, William O'Neal taught school, Thomas Pearson made saddles and harnesses, Samuel Wyly and John Belton were surveyors, and Samuel Pearson and Jesse Minton were millwrights.

I have just come across the information on Sarah Coats and James Lewis. I do not know where they lived. James was born in 1781 and married Sarah (his second wife) in 1809 in South Carolina. Sometime between 1820 and 1827 he migrated to Alabama. They had a daughter, Minerva, and a son, James Jr. that I know of. Would be interested in anything you have that might connect these two people. He then married Martha Fleming on August 20, 1827. Did Sarah die? When? Other children? Thanks for sending me the Coats website...I will look into it, too.
