Donna -
The following Padgett graves are in the Stanley Cemetery in Greene Co.
I've included the Barton graves also because it looks like they may have
been closely associated with the Padgetts.
STANLEY CEMETERY, Greene County, Indiana
Location:
Section 12, Jefferson Township. About 3 1/2 miles North West of
Worthington, IN. The cemetery is very well maintained by Jefferson
Township but many of the gravestones have fallen or disappeared and others
are virtually illegible.
Sources of Information:
Several gravestone listings have been made:
Listing Made By: Date Abbrev.

Of these, the 1982 Spainhower listing appears to be the most accurate and
complete. The following listing is based on Spainhower. Any differences

Anyone working on Barkers in Greene Co, are these Barkers in Taylor Twp or another twp? Still trying to find information of James A Barker of Worthington, had a sawmill, married to Rhoda ?____? James was born ca 1836 OH, both parents VA, according to 1880 census. Think he is the same James A. Barker that went to MO later, possibly sold his sawmill to James D. Neill. Thanks for any information........Sue
I don't know how they are doing it, but some scum has taken my alter ego,
ShMaynard, and used it to send scum mail. How stupid they are, they sent it
from me to me.
The porno creeps ran me out of that screen name with their relentless porno
mail.
Now they are using my name to send that trash.
If you see anything in your mail box that says it is from <ShMaynard(a)aol.com>
simply delete. I have not and will not send anything thru that screen name.

some information i'd be more than willing to share if anyone else is
searching for these names too.
Thanks,

The following came off of a Fife County, Scotland List-serve and I thought
it might be helpful to other lists. We are always trying to figure out how
to move back a generation and this might help provide clues. Use this at

I have this information in my records taking the naming pattern up to 4th &
5th sons and daughters (I usually see this pattern referenced only up to the
3rd son & daughter). I got this info from a book I read a couple of years
ago on Scottish Genealogy (sorry--I'm not 100% sure of the title, but I seem
to remember it being something by Angus Baxter, maybe In Search of Your
British & Irish Roots : A Complete Guide to Tracing Your English, Welsh,
Scottish, & Irish Ancestors?). I've found that at least 2 families in my
lineage followed this entire pattern exactly, and a couple of others seem to
be that way too though I haven't been able to verify their info yet.
1st son = father's father
2nd son = mother's father
3rd son = father
4th son = father's oldest brother
5th son = father's 2nd oldest brother or mother's oldest brother
1st dau = mother's mother
2nd dau = father's mother
3rd dau = mother
4th dau = mother's oldest sister
5th dau = mother's 2nd oldest sister or father's oldest sister

I know I've posted Joshua Dover from Greene County, IN before. But I thought
it might help if I posted all Dovers in Greene Co, IN in 1830 & 1840 Census.

being born 1770-1780. I can't identify either. It is believed Joshua and

I've found some Morrises who may be related to Martin Vanburen Morris,
husband of Janetta [Elizabeth] Hewey of Greene Co.
These Morrises were born in GA as were papas, but mamas were born in CT, as
was at least one of the older Morrises whose oldest son was born in GA, as
well.
Any Morris researchers here?

Anyone descended from a NOEL in Greene Co., IN? From the 1880 census I have
the Widow Noel who married Alexander MARTIN. He was 70, a farmer, born in TN
as were his parents.
His wife was Eliza A., 40, born in KY as were both her parents.
Alexander's stepson, so Eliza's son, was Merritt Noel, 22, born in IN. Both
parents were born in KY.
Samuel Noel was 14.
Dora Noel was 16.
Rosetta Noel was 14.
John Noel was 9.
Miranda Martin was 2, and a natural daughter to Alexander Martin.
John Noel married a neighbor girl, Jane Amanda Drake, daughter of James Drake
and his second wife, Rachel.
Miranda [Pearl Maranda] Martin married Jane's brother, James Hendricks Drake.
I'd like to get in touch with some Noel descendants still in Greene Co. I've
written to a couple in Worthington, but haven't heard from them. Is there
anyone here who might be descended from any of these Noels?

Just talked to my ISP and I was wrong about the signature guarantee. However there is a program from McAfee called Guard Dog that will prevent this stuff.
There also might be free programs from ZD Net that will do the same.
sparky(a)elpasonet.net
Tell all your readers that their local ISP can trace these kinds of messages
And if anybody has gotten one from me-its not me
Also MS has a way to guarantee signatures. Look into it.
sparky(a)elpasonet.net
There are a few ways to fight offensive messages. The one thing you want to
remember is not to reply to the message or send an "unsubscribe" message to
any address listed in the message. You should report the offensive message
to the ISP of the sender so the service will be aware of the problem and
track down the offending sender. It's important to use the "forward"
function on your browser to do this, rather than cutting and pasting it into
a message to them. This is so that all the header information will be
included, which enables them to see where the message originated. Most of
the time, you can place the word "postmaster" in front of the domain address
to forward the message to the ISP, like <postmaster(a)aol.com> if the message
came from an aol address.
Forged messages are a problem as they appear to come from a certain address
or sender. The header of the message, in most cases, will show that the
message has been forged and the actual origin may be found in the header
info. These messages should also be reported in the same way.
For more information about forged headers, see the following page:

Rootsweb, the server that our mailing list is on, has special software in
place to catch spam or mass commercial messages and keep it from being sent
to the mailing lists. It's usually very good at blocking these, but some
still do make it through their system to our mailboxes. Spammers seem to
find new ways to get around even the most diligent systems. I always forward
copies of any messages that make it through to us in hopes that it will help
to stop them.

Dear Bill,
I found your post absolutely fascinating! There are several very helpful
Huey/Hewey researchers on this list, and all more advanced than I--I hope
they will chip in. I am descended from Thomas Huey but am at a fairly
early stage of research. Thomas and Vesty Stewart definitely had a
daughter named Elizabeth, who family sources say was born around 1831.
Thomas and Vesty were married April 2, 1827 in Greene Co. (I have a copy of
the marriage certificate). Incidentally, I am in touch with a couple of
very nice Stewart researchers (not sure if they are on this list), one of
whom is descended from Thomas Huey's sister Dorcas and Vesty Stewart's
brother, Nathaniel, who married.
Thomas and Vesty probably had a number of children, but the only ones I
know of so far are:
1. William (according to family member).
2. Elizabeth, b. 1831; married Bernard Lincoln Exline Nov. 12, 1849, in
Greene Co. (I have this marriage record, too). Bernard was born June 29,
1821, in Pennsylvania (his father, Adam Exline, moved to Greene Co. from
Coshocton Co., OH). After the couple married, they moved west, probably
not long after they married, since they are not in the 1850 Greene Co.
census. They started in Eldorado Co., CA, where Bernard engaged in mining
until 1868, when they settled on a homestead of 160 acres in San Luis
Obispo Co., CA. (This info is from a book called "San Luis Obispo County
and Environs," by Mrs. Annie Morrison [1917]). Elizabeth Huey died March
12, 1871 in San Luis Obispo and is buried in the cemetery there in the
Exline plot. My grandmother said of her that she was an invalid and had a
"milk leg" (?--one swollen leg), and that her brother (William?) came out
to California to cure her--but apparently did not succeed.
Thomas Huey, Elizabeth's father, also moved out to Eldorado Co.--I believe
with Elizabeth and Bernard. He used to team at Grizzly Flat, Eldorado Co.
and lived to be 90. I haven't found his death certificate yet, though. I
don't know where wife Vesty was. I have a California deed (1875)
mentioning "Levi Exline [Bernard's brother], Thomas Huey and Veshti Huey,"
but this Veshti seems to be a man--under the signature I am pretty certain
it says "his mark," and the deed says nothing along the lines of "Thomas
Huey and Veshti his wife," which was common at the time. I'd be happy to
send you or anyone a copy. Perhaps this was Elizabeth's brother. Strange
name, though. Elizabeth and Bernard had four children (I can provide
details).
I know that Thomas took out a federal land patent in 1878 in San Luis
Obispo Co. together with a Frances and Elijah Hester--I've sent for the
full record in hope of clues. I have also written the Greene Co.
courthouse asking for deeds in Thomas's and William's names, as well as
possible will for Benjamin Hewey/Huey/Hughey (and Adam Exline), and will be
happy to share anything I might receive (with all Huey researchers).
I would love to know any other details you might have about Thomas's family
(ie, siblings, parents...). There seem to have been a lot of William Hueys
around, for one thing... I have yet to discover where he was at the time of
the 1850 census--he was not in San Luis Obispo, but I have not been able to
find out about Eldorado Co., CA yet, since I live in Israel (makes life
complicated).

Sorry to be so late in responding to the series of messages on the Hewey
and Drake families in the last few weeks but just returned from a trip.
Have accumulated some information on these families in Greene Co. from
census, marriage, and cemetery records but much of it is conjectural.
Anyway, here's what I have on the Hewey's.
Believe the original settler in Greene Co. was Benjamin Hewey, b.
1770/1780, who had at least 9 children with his wife Nancy, including Enos
(1794-1849), Thomas (b. 100/1810) married Vesty (or Vashti) Stewart,
William (1807-1850/1860), and Elizabeth married Lemon Woodsworth. I've
included Enos in addition to the ones listed in your messages because he
was kind enough to leave a will which provides at least some hard data.
Kelly, if you have any definite data to show that William and Elizabeth or
any or the others were actually siblings, I'd certainly like to get it.
Know nothing about Thomas except for marriage and listing in 1830 Census.
May be listed in 1840 Census as Lhal (illegible) Hughey. If so, the 1840
Census does not show a daughter born in 1831 but both the 1830 and 1840
Censuses show a daughter born 1825-1830 which is pretty close for
government work. Wife's name is given as Vesty in marriage record and as
Vashti in a 1837 land record.
William Hewey, s/o Benjamin and Nancy, is the one I'm primarily interested
in. William married Sally Stanley, who I believe was my ever-so-great
aunt, in 1823. Permission for his marriage was given by his mother, Nancy.
William & Sally had at least 5, perhaps 7, children. William subsequently
married Sally Woods in 1837, 2 children, and then married Martha Drake in
1845, 2 children. Both William & Martha are listed in the 1850 Census but
Martha (and children) are listed without him in 1860 (in Guthery
household).
I couldn't read the 1870 Census either but have listed the name of the
household including William Hewey as Felshimer with a big ?. However, I
believe this is a different William Hewey than the one above since he was
born in 1800 whereas William above was born in 1807. Also, there were 2
different William Hewey's in the 1830 Census and the 1800 William is
listed by himself in the 1860 Census (although he is living very close to
several other Hewey's so he may well be closely related).
Shirley, I had a friend recheck the 1850 Census on CD and she reported that
the name is given as John Williams as if the surname is Williams. I've
been trying to identify a John William Drake, born 1841, who married
Lucetta Ball in 1858 and then her sister, Elizabeth Ball, in 1862. It
would be nice if he was this John William but that seems like a pretty long
shot. Incidentally, the name above his in the census appears to be Louisa
Drake, not Elizabeth.
Re Pricilla C. Drake in the 1870 Census, I am virtually certain that she
was actually Lucinda C. Drake, d/o James Drake and his first wife Elizabeth
Stanley. The will of Elizabeth's mother, Mary Stanley, in 1875 explicitly
lists all of Elizabeth's children then living as John H., Mary C., Sarah
M., Hannah Isabell, Lucinda C., and Elizabeth Drake. In 1870, Sarah was
living with her grandparents, John & Mary Stanley. Assuming that Lucinda =
Pricilla, the 1870 Census accounts for all of the children in the will
except for Mary C. who was 16 at the time and was probably listed as a
servant in another household (she married John Fulk in 1875). The other
three children (Horatio, Daniel, James) were obviously the children of
James and Rachel since Elizabeth died in 1866.
Can supply a few more details on some of these folks if anyone is
interested. Would certainly be interested in any additions or corrections.
