-------------- Original message from Marcia McLawhorn
<marcia_mclawhorn@...>: --------------

Vicki,
In October, I was in the Greenville area for a McCoy reunion. My hostess asked
me to research "Sauls" prior to an upcoming reunion [on 3 Nov 2007]; the first
one held in fifty years.

I did the best I could in a week. I traced her "Sauls" back to William Henry
'Henry' Sauls [Jan 1860 - c1921], who may be the son of John G. Sauls.

Who is your Sauls' grandfather?
Marcia

PS I didn't mention that here we have had a winter storm every weekend since
Thanksgiving plus one or two extra snow events. The weather people are promising
four more occurring including Christmas day. White Christmas wish has been
fulfilled.

Dear Debbie,
    Sorry I misread your question. I think the best
approach for correcting information would be to
contact the publishing group. Since you are probably
not the only one to discover an error, perhaps the
group would invite everyone wanting to make a
correction to submit his correction by a certain
deadline. Then the group could print an errata and
mail it out to purchasers of the volumes to be
inserted into their copies.
    In the meantime, I am sure that everyone would
appreciate it if anyone spotting an error would share
his knowledge in an e-mail to our membership.
    It would be especially frustrating for persons
traveling from out-of-state to have made a trip to a
cemetery to visit the grave of an ancestor only to
discover that the grave was not where the publication
had stated.
    I apologize again for not having correctly read
your question. Thank you for letting me know.
    Later, Carol

Dear Bill,
     Speaking of poetic justice, now this takes the
cake. Marry the widow of the man you sued for
slandering you--truth is stranger than fiction, isn't
it?
     For my part, I bear no ill will to either party
nor to their descendants. May all of them prosper.
     As Shakespeare said long ago, "All's well that
ends well."
     Love to you and the family. May the coming year be
filled with blessings, Carol

Dear Marcia,
    That's a good question. Earlier McGowans used the
spelling Megounds and Megowns.
    It's good hearing from you. Sorry that I am so far
behind in my correspondence thanks to a really hectic
holiday work schedule. I am glad to hear that your son
was visiting you over the holidays and hope that all
of you had a beautiful white Christmas in Chicago. In
winter, it's one of the most beautiful places on
earth, and the wind is phenomenal the way it sweeps
through the streets and whispers in one's ear. What a
magical place.

I am in need of signatures.   I have been a member of this group for a
long time and need help.   My only daughter died Nov 22, 2006 from
AML, I remember all the support and prayers I received from this group.

My son in law has not allowed my two grandsons, one is 7 and one is 2
to visit me since my daughter's death.    This Holiday season I did
not get to see them at all.

NC does have some grandparent's rights but not like other states.   I
am hoping this group will help me with as many signatures as possible
so I can try to get visiting rights to these boys.   They are all I

Dear Deboroh, my sympathy is with you, I am in Okla but would help in any way I
can.
Last year we had a simular problem from two deaths in our family, namely my
sister and her daughter leaving 2 small sons. We wanted them to stay right where
they were with the Grandfather but an older half sister tried to force them to
live with her. However the court did award them to the Grandfather so they would
not interrupt school, living conditions etc. Many of our family were there for
the court hearing and today those boys are happy and content.
  I am not sure but it seems to me there has been a rulling that forces
Grandparents visitation hopefully someone out here can give you that info. If a
petition is placed on the interned and sent around I am sure you could get a lot
of signatures. Your son-in-law is very selfish, it would show how much he loved
his wife to allow her parents to help in forming the lives of those  wonderful
children. GrandParents are very essential in the rearing of children, they show
unconditional love. May God bless and be with you in this time of sorrow. Best
wishes, Elizabeth Beavers

Sorry for butting in here, but if I am correct the laws protect the rights of
grandparents to see there grandchildren. You can probably go to your family
court and petition for a legal right to see them.

Dear Deborah,
     People are sometimes inexplicably cruel. I do
believe, though, that "the evil we do comes back to
plague the inventor," as Shakespeare phrased it.
     I realize that mere words are poor consolation for
an aching heart. Many of our relatives and friends
supported my sister for more than three years of
separation from her only granddaughter--not the act of
an in-law but of her son.
     We had the same legal recourse in Virginia as is
available in North Carolina. However, I persuaded my
sister not to take that route but to pray every day
that God would soften the hardened heart.
     Just last spring, my nephew approached my sister,
my daughter with infant granddaughter in her arms, and
me all of whom were attending his daughter's first
ballgame, hugged each of us, told us he loved us,
thanked us for coming and for our continued support of
his daughter throughout the months of our separation,
asked forgiveness, and said that he had missed us more
than we could know.
     What made our ordeal the more painful for my
sister was that she had raised that granddaughter from
infancy until she was seven years old. Worst than
anything, though, was the suffering of that little
girl. Under the pressure of not knowing what was safe
to say to whom, she began to stutter. A former "A"
student, she received failing grades in both math and
reading.
     Instead of help at home, her parents criticized
her relentlessly and punished her for the failing
grades. The only good to come of this is that the
school intervened and provided free tutoring in math
and reading that over time brought her grades up and
prevented her failing for the year.
     It's a shame when grown-ups make a child a pawn in
an emotional game of chess. The ultimate victim is the
child.
     Couples can divorce or break old ties upon the
death of a spouse, but the ties that bind the child to
both families are eternal. I am sure that those of us
in this group have learned that through our research,
if we hadn't picked up on it earlier through other
sources.
     Law choses not to legislate the human heart. Only
God can tame that unruly beast.
     My words to you come from our family's own pain
and suffering. In your hour of need, I will help you
in any way I can. If my signature will help, tell me
how to respond, and I will do so.
     Some states have begun to be cognizant of
grandparents' rights. With more of us grandparents out
there, I am hopeful that legislation will be passed to
ensure our access to our grandchildren. In the
meantime, all of us can help by contacting our
elective officials with our collective voices.

Carol,

Thank you and thank you all for the encouragement I have received.   I am
praying so hard that God will change his heart.   I really don't know what to
do, I do feel like if I take him to court it is going to make it worse on the
kids cause he has a bad temper.   I contacted Lt. Governor Beverly Perdue and
she told me to just hire a lawyer, that can be very expensive.

Dear Shade,
    It has been my experience that when people act ugly
towards others, it's because they are feeling ugly on
the inside. Their feelings are directed towards
others, but those others did not cause those feelings.
    It is likely that your family member is
experiencing a great deal of grief and anger over the
loss of his wife and the added responsibilities he now
has to shoulder. Additionally, he needs a target for
these feelings. He cannot blame his dead spouse
directly, so he turns those feelings against the
people he can blame, usually those who are safe
targets in the sense that rather than retaliate they
will be hurting too. It's as if he were saying, "Feel
my pain, and then talk."
    The targets are usually "safe" also in the sense
that the aggressor knows they love him and will
continue to love him even while he is hurting them.
These people would not dare use such tactics or even
try them out on someone who does not have a vested
interest in their behavior. You have a vested interest
because of your love for the grandchildren and for
your daughter. These give your family member a "hook,"
allowing him to get to you.
    I can offer you also the consolation I gave my
sister, and it will prove equally true in your case I
trust. He will need you much sooner than you will need
him.
    Bide your time. Let time work its magic.
    Further, those grandchildren are likely hurting as
much as you are. Do you think for one minute that they
are not going to grow up and reach out to you?
    Given their mother's death, what are the chances
they will reject their mother's mom? Not likely, I'd
say.
     As for the lawyer, in most cases the initial
consultation is free. It will not cost you to explore
your rights and the choices open to you.
     A possible drawback, though, is prolonging or
intensifying the hostility between you and your
relative if you do pursue legal remedies.
     Give it careful thought.
     You might also enlist the help of other family
members who have influence with him and can bring him
around to seeing your side of things.

Hi Carol,

As far as I know my line did not go to Dickson Co. TN.  Lacey & son
Elias A. Braxton went to Hawkins to Warren (1870), Cannon (1880),
Lincoln and Marshall Counties in TN. One of Lacey's sons by Livina
went to Coffee Co., then Elias went on to Parker Co. Texas.  The
photos of Elias and his children Laura (my grgrandmother) and John
are in the Photo section here in Kenny's album.

I tried to send Jewell a email today and it was returned.   But maybe some one
can get a message to her for me.

When my daughter died in 2006, Jewel told me since I wasn't able at the time it
came out she was going to send me the Pit County Chronciles II book in memory of
Lynn.   But I have nevered recieved it.   I know she had lost her grandson
and do pray she is mending, losing a love one is really bad.   My heart went
out to her when I learned of it.

Anyway, I was just wondering how to get my book.

Thank you,

Deborah S Barnes

I was given a picture of supposedly the Rance and Blanche Forrest family.
It was taken in front of a two story house with an old model car in front.
There were 14 people in the picture including children.  Does anyone know
about this family?  This is about a 11 x 14 picture.
The older man must be Rance holding a child of about two, the lady must be
Blanche is holding a child of about one year.  There are three young boys
and one girl.  The others are adults.
