Beginning March 2nd, 2020 the Mailing Lists functionality on RootsWeb will be discontinued. Users will no longer be able to send outgoing emails or accept incoming emails. Additionally, administration tools will no longer be available to list administrators and mailing lists will be put into an archival state.
Administrators may save the emails in their list prior to March 2nd. After that, mailing list archives will remain available and searchable on RootsWeb
I am amazed at the response and amazed at what I have been missing from this
group of people. Also amazed that I didn't realize there was a "real"
sweetowen site.
Thanks for the hug, I needed that. Bev

Put my check in the mail this afternoon, it's not much and I hope it helps a little.
I haven't been doing much research lately but still go to the website just to check the 'news'
Just a little note, back in 2005 I posted all my research on Rootsweb, World Connect, because it was a free site and was hoping people who couldn't afford the pay sites would be able to get some leads. Imagine how disappointed I was when I found out that it was also put on Ancestry., and the people would have to pay. It makes me appreciate how great Sweet Owen is. Needless to say I have not posted on World Connect since 2005

Debbie,
I recently visited your site - first time in a long time actually. I
remember the request for funds there - I do not recall the how. May I
suggest that you include the web page url when you post a plea for
assistance, and if possible give us a Paypal account to contribute through.
Another thought - the local public radio has been promoting a
'sustaining' member account - which I inquired about and found highly
arbitrary - that could be an option. If there is an account that you
have to receive that sort of support I for one would like to hear about it.
In closing, and for others reading this, it is not an easy task
establishing and maintaining a web site. The additional cost of
holding one out of the general genealogical domain is not trivial
either. When I recently visited Sweet Owen I was delighted by the
depth of material Debbie has placed and made available. I know there
have been earlier posts stating support - I urge those here who are
fortunate to have a steady dependable income to seriously consider
assisting Sweet Owen in its hour of need.
Please!

I am posting the following for those of you that have not visited the website in a while. I don't want anyone stating that there was no warning and it was unexpected and "if only they knew"....
Seven years ago, I created the Sweet Owen website because I felt that it was and still is a necessary aid for those researching their family histories in Morgan, Owen and Putnam Counties of Indiana.
During those years every effort was made to ensure that the data presented was free to all visitors by paying for the website myself. I have steadfastly refused to connect it with some of the other sites/organizations that would--
1. Control the content (Genweb, Rootsweb, Ancestry,etc)
2. Control the size of the website (limiting cemetery listings/photos, etc)
3. Eventually turn it into a paysite (such as Familytreemaker or Ancestry)
4. Whether anyone realizes it or not, those sites (even rootsweb) lays claim to the data you submit and it becomes theirs and it most always ends up as part of a CD of "marketable" data.
For those reasons, I have always kept this site independently owned and operated..
For reasons currently beyond my control with the economy, I have had to cut corners in my own finances and regrettably this is one of the items not deemed as "necessary" in the family budget.
HOW YOU CAN HELP
As there are many of you that visit this site of a regular basis, I am appealing to you for any assistance that you might be able to provide. It is my thought that if people just submit a few dollars here or there that the accumulation of it would be enough, but yet not make it a hardship on any one person.
I am not trying to say that if you don't make donations, you cannot access the site- I was hoping for a collective effort. (But if nobody makes donations, there will be no site.)
Simple donations will be able to cover the cost of the website running.
I am NOT looking for any ONE person to foot the bill, so please don't contact me and volunteer that service. I am not looking for someone to take over the ownership of the site, just some help in keeping it going until the economy looks a little better here.
If I cannot get donations, this website will have to come down next month (April, because I simply cannot afford it anymore.
This situation is not just a one time thing-- nor is it forever, simply till things get somewhat better economically and I can pick it up completely again.
Please visit the website and check on the link for further information.

Most definitely I will put a check in the mail. You have done a wonderful
job of keeping valuable information on this site and I greatly appreciate

More about Cherokees and Owen County.
Hester Light married Skillethead Johnson, a Cherokee Indian in 1814 in Harrison Co. IN. Her grandfather was Hugh Moore.
In Feb 1771 Hugh Moore served during the Cherokee Indian uprising in Tryon Co., NC, under James Moore, Birches Creek, Halifax Co. VA. He served as private in Roebuck's Regiment in South Carolina. He enlisted in the fall of 1776 as private from Pendleton Co. in Captain Michal's Company, Colonel Benjamin Clark's regiment. In 1780 he was elected Lieutenant in Capt. Parson's Company and served under Cols. Clark and Shelby until 1782.. He was living in Warren Co. Kentucky when granted a
pension July 23, 1832 (DAR 400193 Mabel Scott Smith). cf Prewitt & DAR for service records 23 Jul 1832. Hugh's widow was granted a pension 19 Sept 1838. Her residence then was Warren County, Kentucky. Hugh MOORE & Sarah FRENCH had 15 children, born before & after the Revolutinary War.. All 15 lived to adulthood. Most of the children were born in Kentucky. Marium was the youngest. After Hugh's death, Sarah lived with Marium, the youngest, and was still with Marium when she (Sarah) died, almost 100 years old. Edward Stevens,Marium's husband, had died many years earlier, and of course, all the grandchildren were long grown and on their own.
Hester Light's nicknames were Heppy and Hattie.
We have no verification of Hugh MOORE's parents' names, thought to be Joseph and Catherine Moore.
(Some of this information came from Penny
Wilson.)
Hugh Moore's daughter Mary Catherine Moore married Mathias (Tyce) Light. She is buried in Hicks Cemetery, Owen Co. IN.
I'd be interested to know if James Moore or Francis Moore (Samuel Scott's captain in War 1812) of Halifax Co. VA were either one from Hugh's family?
Nancy Scott
I don't understand your complaint. I thought the subject was clear. I also
don't see my name on this list.

All I have are the family names given below. They were part of a group
united in moving - so I suspect closely knit but not related.
I might also suggest following the Appalachian Mts. as it was one of the
paths from the New England states to the tier of southern states.

I think the difference is if one is receiving the Digest form or the
individual forms. The subject line I see is
Subject: Re: [INOWEN] TRE: INOWEN Digest, Vol 4, Issue 3
When replying to an email two things are considered polite. One is to update
the subject line to the current topic and two) is to delete all previous
emails that do not pertain to the current topic. I'm not complaining, I'm
suggesting.
The following is what I received in the last email. Notice the subject line
and the length.
Suzanne
All I have are the family names given below. They were part of a group
united in moving - so I suspect closely knit but not related.
I might also suggest following the Appalachian Mts. as it was one of the
paths from the New England states to the tier of southern states.

In year 1832 a group migrated from Montgomery, N. Carolina to Owen County,
Indiana. There they entered adjoining land and established the New Union
Baptist church in Morgan Township and which is known as the Carolina Church.
The family names of those migrants were: Beaman, Bolin, Carter, Haltom,
Hicks, Hurt, Jordan, Langdon, Lucas, Luther, Morris, Randall, Reynolds,
Singleton, and Stephens.
My grandmother told me that we were English, Irish and a little bit of
Cherokee Indian.
The date 1832 has hung in my brain for some time because of the "Trail of
Tears" (1835) which resulted the Cherokee being resettled in Oklahoma.
I keep wondering if the North Carolina group migrated because of the turmoil
among the Cherokee native americans. As a result of DNA done on the Bolin
line the Cherokee connection is through a woman. I recently learned that
the Cherokee males lineage was through the woman. Of course, the female dna
is of no help in solving the question of native american heritage.
I don't expect an answer - I am just writing to open a dialogue. All
opinions would be of great interest to me.

Reading history recently, I found that some of the Cherokees moved to Indiana. We also have an Owen county genealogy of Hester Light,born 22 Nov 1800 Pendleton District, VA, daugher of Mathias Light and Mary Catherine Moore. Hester died 15 May 1855, buried Leach Cemetery, Owen Co. IN. Hester married a Cherokee man, named James Johnson, known as Skillethead, born 1873 VA, died 6 Nov. 1868, buried Burton Cemetery, Owen Co. IN. They married 3 March 1814 Harrison Co. IN, before Tyce Light's family moved to Owen Co. In the 1850 census Hester and James are listed: 1850 IN Owen Co. Franklin Twp. p. 117: James 52 VA; Hester 50; Wm 25 IN; Lawrence 18 IN; Abner 16 IN; Eleanor 13 IN, Martha 11 IN; Polly Light 80 SC (Hester's mother).
I wonder if you could explain why the mother's DNA is not used to prove Cherokee ancestry?
Hester's sister Anna Light married Thomas Wright, and moved to Oregon. Here's what I have about the Wright family:
Susan S. Hahn sends a good story about the LIGHTs in Washington, from the History of the Washington Territory. Annie LIGHT was a sister of Abner LIGHT. Their parents were pioneers in Owen Co. IN. Annie LIGHT and her husband Thomas Jefferson WRIGHT used the money she inherited when her father died and went on the Oregon Trail to Washington. Susan writes, "They were on the Nahchess Trail to Puget Sound. Annie and Thomas were in the first wagon train through the Cascades and the Nahchess Pass. They built the road as they went! It was quite a treacherous trip. Their names are listed in the book as some of the first pioneers to make it through. They settled in Pierce Co. WA...and are buried in the Gravelly Lake Pioneer Cemetery [Tacoma,WA].... Their son Israel is also buried with them."
cf. HISTORY OF THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST: OREGON AND WASHINGTON, VOL. I & II, by William F. Hooker, Portland, OR, North Pacific Historical Co. 1889, p. 340ff.

In year 1832 a group migrated from Montgomery, N. Carolina to Owen County,
Indiana. There they entered adjoining land and established the New Union
Baptist church in Morgan Township and which is known as the Carolina Church..
The family names of those migrants were: Beaman, Bolin, Carter, Haltom,
Hicks, Hurt, Jordan, Langdon, Lucas, Luther, Morris, Randall, Reynolds,
Singleton, and Stephens.
My grandmother told me that we were English, Irish and a little bit of
Cherokee Indian.
The date 1832 has hung in my brain for some time because of the "Trail of
Tears" (1835) which resulted the Cherokee being resettled in Oklahoma.
I keep wondering if the North Carolina group migrated because of the turmoil
among the Cherokee native americans. As a result of DNA done on the Bolin
line the Cherokee connection is through a woman. I recently learned that
the Cherokee males lineage was through the woman. Of course, the female dna
is of no help in solving the question of native american heritage.
I don't expect an answer - I am just writing to open a dialogue. All
opinions would be of great interest to me.
