Annabelle M. Sluka was born to Stanley & Mildred Nemecek on April 5th, 1936, near Lincoln NE, a mile from Plamor Ballroom. She passed away on July 15th, 2023, at Bryan West Hospital in Lincoln at the age of 87.
She attended Blessed Sacrament grade school and graduated from Cathedral High School in Lincoln in 1954. Starting in Kindergarten, she made livelong friends with Patsy, Helen, Eileen, and Nancy. They continued to keep in touch throughout all these years.
Following graduation, Annabelle worked for six years at Gooch's in Lincoln as a bookkeeper. It was around this time that a blind date was arranged by Bob Zeleny , Jim Sluka's best friend and this date eventually led to wedding bells. Annabelle and Jim were married on September 24, 1960. Bob Zeleny married Diane and the couples became great friends and made many wonderful memories.
Jim and Annabelle began their life together on the farm. Annabelle went from a city girl to life on the farm and she adjusted well. To this union, six children were born, Chris, Tom, Maryann, Diane, Sandy and Amy. Annabelle was a devoted wife and mother. Her main priority and happiness was her family and she started many family traditions which her children hold dear today and continue to be been passed on to their children. She attended many school activities. She always had the uniforms washed or the last-minute food needed for a school function.
Annabelle and Jim enjoyed time with friends which included polka dances and high school football tailgating. Card parties were another enjoyment they had with Placek's, Svec's, Rischling's, & Luzum's.
Annabelle's faith was a priority in her life. She was a member and past President of the St. Wenceslaus Altar Society. She also taught CCD.
Later, Annabelle cleaned houses and she worked on the election board.
After retiring she enjoyed gambling excursions with Kathy, Judy & Mary. She also enjoyed her outings with Diane, Elm & Sally. She also spent time in Lincoln with her sister Mabel Svoboda and enjoyed movies and restaurants in Lincoln.
After Jim's death in 2010, she remained on the farm until the fall of 2022 when she began residence at the Heritage in Geneva. Annabelle will be remembered for her true love of her husband and her children. She will be missed as the heart and soul of the family.
She is preceded in death by her husband Jim, mother and father, sister Mabel Svoboda and brother-in-law Ray Svoboda.

"Milam Cemetery receives marker"
The Texas Historic Cemetery Dedication Ceremony for Milam Cemetery took place on Saturday, October 11, following the annual Nethery reunion...local historian Weldon McDaniel....gave a presentation outlining some of the significant historical events that took place in Milam and the importance of preserving the history of Milam Cemetery. He said as many as 85 percent of all early settlers coming into Texas put their boots in red dirt. Although San Augustine and Nacogdoches counties have a friendly battle over which is older, Milam is just as old as either of them....
Dorothy Nethery Spain had the honor of reading the script engraved on the marker:
"Milam, the first County Seat of Sabine County, has a history of travelers and visitors stretching back centuries. Native Americans and Spanish exploreres, soldiers and missionaries passed through and often camped on Las Boregas Creek. Texian settlers encountering the natural abundance echoed the words of Stephen F. Austin, who recorded in his diary entry of July 16, 1821: "We then suddenly came to an open rolling country thinly timbered soil about the color of Spanish browne, and in some places redder. This Red Land is very productive and is covered with the most luxuriant growth of grass I ever beheld in any country." The settlment first called Red Mound (Red Mount) was the seat of Government for the Sabine District since 1822, and was surveyed as a town site in 1828.
Milam Cemetery is on a high hill overlooking the historic community. The exact dated of the first burial will never be known Spanish Explorers were passing through present-day Milam as early as 1539 and camped on Las Boregas Creek a few hundred yards west of the cemetery. Local hisorians believed Anglo burials occurred here probably as early as 1775, since travelers used the campsite down the hill on the Las Boregas. The land on which the cemetery is located was granted to JOHN SMITH on Feb. 26, 1835. The first marked burial is dated 1864, although more than 100 unmarked graves are suspected. The numerous military Veterans dating back to the Creek War are interred here, as well as prominent early citizens from the CAUSEY, WEATHERRED. McGREW, and NETHERY families. Milam Cemetery may be the oldest organized cemetery in Sabine County, and cherished chronicle of generations of visitors and residents."

Cheryl Marie Nethery, aged 55, passed away Monday, July 1, 2024, in Webster, Texas after a long illness. Born on April 21, 1969, in Houston, Texas to Robert Gene Nethery and Annie DeAlva Davis Nethery, Cheryl was a spirited individual whose life was marked by her generosity and humor.
Cheryl graduated from South Houston High School in 1987 and later achieved both her bachelor's and master's degrees while working full-time. Her academic dedication paved the way for a successful career. Cheryl was a respected HR Professional, initially with Brown and Root and KBR, before she found her passion in the Oil Field Drilling Business as a Regional HR Manager.
Beyond her professional life, Cheryl was deeply committed to animal welfare, often supporting animal charities, rescues, and shelters. Her love for animals was evident when she adopted her first Boxer puppy, Sarge, in 2007, which sparked her enduring affection for the breed. Cheryl's home was never without a Boxer, her most recent companion being her beloved dog and closest pal, Libby.
Cheryl's compassion extended beyond animals; she was always ready to assist anyone in need, making no distinction between friends and strangers. Her sense of humor was a source of joy for those around her, capable of lifting spirits in any situation. She had a heart as big as her home state of Texas with a sense of humor to match it. She could make you laugh even when you didn't feel like laughing.
She worshipped at the First Baptist Church of Genoa. Her faith and the community there were integral parts of her life.
Cheryl is survived by her parents, Gene and Ann Nethery of Highlands, Texas; brother, Steve Nethery and his wife, Janet, of St. Amant, Louisiana; sister, Kathie James and her husband, Mike, of Highlands, Texas; seven nieces and nephews, numerous great-nieces and nephews; and her best friend, Pam Hurley and her husband, Evan. She was preceded in death by her sister, Judy Daniels and her husband, Jim.
Funeral services will be held at 2:00 p.m. on Tuesday, July 9, 2024, at Starr Funeral Home Chapel, 510 Starr Street, Hemphill, Texas, officiated by Bro. Mike Tieman.
Visitation will occur one hour prior to the service.
Burial will follow at Milam Cemetery, with her nephews Josh Gulley, Jeremy Gulley, Chris James, Alex James, Andrew James, and Troy Adell serving as pallbearers.
The arrangements are under the direction of Starr Funeral Home, Hemphill, Texas.
A memorial service will be announced at a later date to be held at First Baptist Church of Highlands.

Dixie Nethery Sparks was born January 21, 1919, in Milam, TX, the youngest child of Louise and Drayton Nethery. Dixie attended school in Milam, on the site of present-day Bethany Baptist Church and later attended high school in Hemphill. Dixie's higher education earned her degrees in music, English, and counseling. She began her career as an educator in Center and later moved back home to Milam and became a high school teacher in Hemphill. In addition to classroom teaching, she gave piano lessons in her home to local children and directed church music.
Dixie's teaching career ended in 1961 when, out of necessity, she took over sole management of Sparks Grocery, a business formerly owned by her father. For over fifty years, she operated a business that served the needs of area residents. Shelves were stocked with food, produce, medicines, gadgets, and books. Racks held fabric, shoes, and toys- anything that can now be purchased at Walmart. Credit was extended when times were hard. Christmas would find her selling and wrapping gifts for last-minute shoppers. She continued to operate Sparks Grocery until early in 2016. By that time, the shelves were mostly bare and shoppers were few. But, folks would continue to stop by for a free cup of coffee and to chat. For several years she would say, "Well, I guess I need to retire one of these days."
Though Dixie never had children of her own, she enjoyed sharing in the lives of her extended family and local children who frequented her store. She always made sure that their school pictures were displayed above the cash register.
In addition to her parents, Dixie was predeceased by an infant brother and sister; former husband, Howard Sparks; her sister, Verlyn Nethery Owens; brother-in-law, Max Owens; and great nephew, Steve Owens.
Dixie spent the last three years of her life in a care facility in Nacogdoches. Following a brief time of illness, Dixie entered her heavenly home on April 9, 2019. She is survived by nieces and nephews, generations of cousins, countless friends, former students, and her family from Magnolia Court.
Funeral services for Dixie will begin at 2:00 p.m. Friday, April 12, 2019 in Starr Funeral Home Chapel with Bro. Mike Tieman and Bro. Robert Shaddock officiating.
Visitation will be held from 11:00 a.m. until service time.
Burial will follow services in Milam Cemetery under the direction of Starr Funeral Home with Gene Nethery, Jim Nethery, Felix Holmes, Raymond Edgar, Robby Roberts, Robbie Hudspeth, and Marty Griffin serving as pallbearers.

Marguerite Syble Eddings, 95, of Hemphill died April 4, 2003, at 6:00 p.m. at Hemphill Care Center. She was born October 25, 1907, in Sabine County, Milam, and was a homemaker. At the age of 16, Marguerite attended Kidd Key College in Sherman and studied music for two years. Marguertie is the daugther of the late Charles Alexander NETHERY and Syble SPEIGHTS Nethery. She was preceded in death by her husband, Curtis Edward EDDINGS on August 28, 1979, and their son Curtis Blake EDDINGS on April 14, 1990. Survivors: one brother and sister-in-law, Wendell and Atrelle NETHERY of Milam; a sister-in-law, Bernice NETHERY of Milam; one son and daughter-in-law, Arvie Gene and Ophelia EDDINGS of Hemphill; a daughter in law, Mary Eddings KILGORE of Pineland; six grandchildren; ten great-grandchildren; and several nieces and nephews. Funeral services were held Sunday, April 6, at Starr Funeral Home Chapel in Hemphill. Interment followed at Rosevine cemetery on FM 1.
The Obituary published on April 9, 2003, in the Sabine County Reporter was nearly identical, however, it listed her grandchildren "...Don and Sherri EDDINGS, Susan and Jeb SMITH, and David and Denise EDDINGS, all of Hemphill, Sandra and William RENEAU and Martha RENEAU, all of Lufkin, and Kathy and David BURKHALTER of Pineland" and great-grandchildren "...Devin EDDINGS, Daniell EDDINGS, Garrett SMITH, Aaron EDDINGS, Bill RENEAU, April RENEAU, Josh RENEAU, Jared RENEAU, Emily BURKHALTER, and Megan BURKHALTER" by name.
Surname also spelled Neitig. Clarence E. Cramer writes that "Barbara was born September 15, 1762, being a year the younger. Barbara married Helfer's War-intimate, Andrew FINFROCK, on November 10 or 16, 1785, by the Reverend Schroeder, and died January 14, 1841. Finfrock was born October 25, 1753, just a month younger than Helfer, and died June 30, 1836. Both are buried in The Stone Church Cemetery, a few feet from Helfer and Sophia, and a Revolutionary War Emblem adorns Finfrock's grave." (p. 52). They had at least two children who are buried at The Stone Church: John B. Finfrock, 21 Oct 1792-8 Sep 1863; and Christina Finfrock, 21 Dec 1800-17 Mar 1864. (p. 57).
Cramer later elaborated on Finfrock's war service (p. 59), transcribing information from H. J. Young's "In The American Revolution: A Source Book," MS., Red Series, page 165. "The Pension Papers of Andrew Finfrock of Codorus Township, Claim W-2770, state that the Pensioner was married November 10 of 16, 1785, to Barbara Neitig by the Reverend Mr. Schroeder; that on December 12, 1832, George Kreps and Helfer Craumer swore that they saw him in the Army as a soldier at Fort Lee, where he was detained as a guard until the fall of Fort Washington on November 16, 1776." The pension bureau granted Finfrock a pension on this affadavit. All Muster Rolls were lost or destroyed for that expedition.
FindAGrave shows her maiden name being spelled Neudig versus Neidig.
Democratic Press, December 2, 1839 (York)
Died. On the 20th inst., in Codorus Township, York County; Mrs. Sophia Cramer, wife of Helfrick Cramer, aged 78 years, 2 months, and 4 days."
An identical article ran in the Pennsylvania Republican on December 4, 1839
Both newspaper articles were originally transcribed by Clarence E. Cramer in his 1943 manuscript about the Cramer family.
Her tombstone read:
Hier ruhen die Gebeine von Sophia Cramer eine gebohre Neudig, Sie starb den 20sten November, 1839. In einem Alter von 78 Jahr, 2 Monate und 4 tagen. Sept 16 1761 - Nov 20, 1839 78 years, 2 months, 4 days. The inscriptions on the stone were copied by the Reverend Doctor Paul D. Yoder and Clarence E. Cramer, sometime prior to the 1943 publication of his manuscript about the family of Johann Helfer Cramer.
Edith Beard Cannon, in her "Genealogical Reports for The Historical Society of York County, Vol. XXIX, page 49, Evidence of the Cramer Families of York before the year 1850 REVISED" published 1943, shows an Administration Bond (SN, 155) was filed August 6, 1840 for the Estate of Sophia Cramer of Codorus Township, Henry Cramer, administrator. This book is lost. On Page 67 of her book, she has the following information that appears to have been related to his revolutionary pension"
State of Pennsylvania, York County, Personally appeared before me the Subcriber a Justice of the peace in and for said County Francis SHAFER and Henry CRAUMER Credible Witnesses who being by me duly sworn According to law saith that Sophia CRAUMER the Widow of Helfer CRAUMER a United States pensioner of York County Pa. died in York County on the 20 day of November Annon Domini 1839 and that Christian CRAUMER and John CRAUMER & Julian WERNER and Henry CRAUMER and Margaret SHAFER and Lorence CRAUMER are the only sons and Daughters of Sophia CRAUMER deceased and Legitimate Heirs 1840.

Clarence E. Cramer, in his 1943 manuscript "The Family of Johan Helfer Cramer..", states that Sophia was a "daughter of Johann and Elixabetha Neidig. On page 5 it was noted that Johann Adam Neidig arrived at Philadelphia August 11, 1732, and took the Oath of Allegiance. Perhaps this man was Sophia's grandfather, but certainly the Neidig family was well established as American Colonial citizens prior to Sophia's birth. The 1783 tax records listed John Neidig in Codorus Township with "4 inhabitants." It is probable the Neidig family consisted of the parents John and Elizabeth, sister Barbara, and Sophia..." (p. 52).
FTM CD #196 lists Henrietta and her sisters Elisabetha Margaretha and Maria and their parents, Johannes Neidig & Elisabetha ???. All baptized at St. Paul's Lutheran Church, Upper Hanover Township, Montgomery County, PA

Melba Gene McLemore writes that he was in Co. B of the 106th Infantry during the Civil War.
Dan Sanchez, of Edgewood, New Mexico, emailed Melba Gene McLemore that "The story I have of Charles Vernah Newman, has been told to me by my grandfather (still living) and my mother (deceased).
Charles Newman came from Canada, somehow ended up in Illinois and joined the Union Army, he was in the 106th Illinois Infantry Company B, he mustered in at Mt. Pulaski, Illinois and served in the battle of Vicksburg, near Vicksburg Mississippi at the time the Civil War ended. When the Civil War ended the Army took the horses back from the soldiers if they even had horses as the horses belonged to the federal government. The soldiers were left on foot as they marched through Arkansas my great great grandfather got hungery and tried to steal a chicken from a store near the old military road, 5-10 miles west of Star City.
the store was owned by a widow woman Elvira "Missy" Melissa McLemore, and from what I've been told she shot him for trying to steal a chicken, nursed him back to health, and they later married. Charles mustered out at Camp Robinson (now North Little Rock) at the time the government could't afford to pay the soldiers in cash money so they paid them in landgrants. According to my mother my GG Grandfather was paid with a land grant in the territory of New Mexico, from what I was told the land grant is part of the White Oaks mines near White Oaks in Lincoln County New Mexico (Carrizzozo is the county seat presently). I have no information as to whether or not Charles ever visited New Mexico to claim his pay. I know that Charles is buried in the Old Newman Cemetery (as it is refered to by the locals in Star City) and I have cleaned gravesites there when I was younger. I've been told that there are several unmarked graves in the cemetery due to disrepair. There are two other cemeteries on the west side of Star City, one is called the New Newman Cemetery and the other I'm not sure what it is called. Star City is in Lincoln County Arkansas.This is all the information I have at present. I would venture to guess that the Wright McLemore buried in the Old Newman Cemetery is Sr. not Jr.

His brother, George Newman had a one room house that sat back off the road that Joe lived in, as Joe never kept anything that he owned. There was an old iron bed with a homemade mattress which was made from ticking and stuffed with hay or cotton, a small dining table, a pot belly stove and a couple of cane bottom chairs. There were nails on the walls for Papa to hang his clothes, saddle, bridle or anything else he could think of. Out back was a smaller house that the roof slanted on and used as a summer kitchen. He would smoke meat in it and cook on the pot belly stove in the winter. He didn't have running water, electricity, telephone, or an intdoor toilet. He rode his horse every where he went. He would only get in a car if he was going a long way from home. If he accepted a ride from anyone, he would stand on the running boards instead of getting inside. The horse had a colt, so you could see Papa riding his horse and the colt following them. Papa had an old fiddle. He played it at barn dances sometimes, but he carried it with him every place and would play it for us anytime. Once at Uncle George's house, my Aunt Cille asked George's wife, Aunt Alice (Blasingame), if she could have a beautiful old highboy dresser if anything happened to her...this gave me an idea. I went into the parlor and asked Papa if he died could I have his horse. Of course, I got into trouble about doing so, but Papa just laughed and said "Okay, I'll die and Will you my horse." Joe was born October 26, 1878 to Charles Vernah and Elvira "Missy" Melissa (Reynolds McLemore) Newman in Feenyville, Lincoln Co. and died August 8, 1950 about one mile from where he was born. He was a horse trader..trading one thing for another...and hardly work during his life. He married Virgie Mae Spears on February 24, 1905. They had six children; Effie Harriett, Lucy Elvira, Stark Joseph, Susie Melissa, Julie Mae, and Ralph Leroy (Roy) before Virgie died in 1920. In about 1925, Joe married Ollie Belle (Reaves) Stringfellow. Children born to them were: Herbert McKinley and Ruby Mae. They were divorced around 1930. When Papa died, they sold the horse and colt to buy a tombstone. The old furniture was just left in the house, which fell in. His only other possession left was the fiddle. It had been promised to all of Joe's grandchildren but my mother, Sue, inherited it. It is now encased in a nice shadow box with Papa's pictures and names of old tunes he used to play and a story about it. It hangs in my dining room. I didn't get the horse, but I got the fiddle!"

An article in the "Big Spring Herald," Big Spring, Texas, Sec. D, Thursday, December 14, 1972, titled "Building Planes Became McGuire Family Hobby".....detailed the families project in working on a 1949 Cessna 170 four-seater which was rebuilt by the family. It had been acquired by them early in 1970, with a mechanic repairing the engine and the family stripping and improving the inside. Daisy made the seat covers....A photo of Daisy in the kitchen was included, and the article also focused on her hobbies...noting she "enjoys staying home, and her creativity shines in both sewing and cooking projects." She described her cooking methods as the "dibs of this and dabs of that"....with Daisy noting her children and husband were meat and potato people, but that she liked everything, and she tended to be an "experimenter" if given the chance. Daisy further reported she liked bowling, sailing, water skiing and camping. The family had a sailboat they used on Moss Lake as often as weather and time allowed. Daisy added that now that the plane restoration was complete, and they had moved into their newly purchased home, she was hope to find time to paint, something she has always thought she would enjoy...and also thought she might even get to the point "where I enjoy yard work now that we have our own yard."
He has often been shown as a son of Abraham and Rachel NEWTON, and a descendant of Richard NEWTON who immigrated to Sudbury, MA from Lincolnshire, England about 1639. However, Merle Newton emailed, in February 2013, that he had "discovered that they didn't originate in Southbourough MA as some have reported--disproven by DNA tests."
In 1769, Abraham served on the jury for a murder trial in Deplin Co., NC. Abraham was living with or near his four sons in 1779 in Duplin Co., NC, where all five signed a petition for the formation of Sampson Co. from Duplin Co. It is thought that Sarah was in NC also. There is an obituary for a Mrs. Sarah Newton in the Cape Fear Mercury, 29 Dec. 1773. It is assumed that this was Sarah Graves Newton and that she died sometime in Dec. 1773. All four of the sons in NC were in the Revolutionary War.
The following information about the family of Bevis O. Newton was written by Mrs. Crissy Newton, and posted on the US Genweb Project for Jefferson Co, Texas:
Bevis O. Newton was born in Newton County, Texas in 1908, the son of Wade and Emma Newton, who were also from Newton County. Mrs. and Mrs. Wade Newton moved to Nederland about 1920, where they operated the Newton Hotel and Rooming House at 1146 Atlanta for many years. Mr. Newton died about ten years later.
Wade and Emma were the parents of two sons, Bevis O. and Harry H. Newton, and two daughters Cecile and Mary Frances, all of whom graduated from Nederland High School. Mary Frances married Johnny Konecny, who was Nederland's coach and history teacher in 1935.
Following graduation from High School, Harry Newton went to work for Sun Oil Company, and he and his wife Merle lived on Spring Street until Harry's death. Bevis Newton worked for Pure Oil Company for about 20 years. He then left the company and followed construction work for another 20 years until he retired.
On December 24, 1935, Bevis Newton married Crissy Kaper, daughter of John and Minnie Kaper of 403 Fifteenth Street in Nederland. Captain John Kaper, an native of Holland, sailed for many years before he joined the Sabine Bar Pilots Association. He and Minnie Kaper resided in Sabine Pass until the 1915 storm drove them to Nederland, where they bought the former house of J. William Barr and where they resided until their deaths.
Bevis and Crissy Newton build their first home at 323 Fifteenth Street, next door to her parents. About 25 years ago, they moved their old home away and built the blond brick home in which Crissy Newton still resides.
Bevis and Crissy Newton were the parents of two sons, Bevis O. Newton, Jr. and John Wade Newton. Bevis Jr died in 1955 of leukemia, a childhood diease that he struggled with for many years. He died at the age of eighteen.
Bevis Newton Sr was a thirty-second degree Mason. After a few years of retirement, he died in 1981, survived by his wife Crissy and son John Wade. As of 1991, his sisters are still living, Cecile in Houston and Mary Frances Konecny in Bryan, Texas.
Deceased members of the Kaper and Bevis Newton families are either interred or entombed at Oak Bluff Memorial Park in Port Neches.

At that time he became a caregiver for his wife. Besides watching NASCAR, he enjoyed fishing and woodworking.
His wife, his parents a sister and brother-in-law predeceased David.
Bonnie Smith's research indicates that Dorcas Newton, Mrs. R. Morgan, was burried in Oakdale Cemetery, Wilmington, North Carolina, Section G, Lot 20, Ch. Lot 12.

Said to have married around 1801 James BLAND (ca 1772-12 Sep 1818)., a son of William BLAND and Rachel POWELL.
They were said to be the parents of Anna BLAND, who married Enoch ALDERMAN and Isaac Newton BLAND, who married Mary E. ALDERMAN. Enoch and Mary ALDERMAN were siblings, and were also first cousins to Anna and Isaac, being the children of Nancy Ann NEWTON and John ALDERMAN.
According to the Graves Family of America website, the complete list of children was as follows: (1) Dorcan Tabitha m. John BLANTON on 1 Oct 1818; (2) Anna b. 2 May 1802 m.

According to the Graves Family Association website, he m. Lois Jones, d. before Jan. 1787. He served in the militia in the Rev. War. After Jacob's death, Lois m (2) Joseph Williams, Sr., in 1791 in Duplin Co., NC.
The Sanford genealogy incorrectly calls Phebe Newton the daughter of Joseph Newton; she was the daughter of Jonah Newtown and Phebe Platt. The error is based upon a misinterpretation of a deed: "All the children united in a deed conveying their rights in the estate and lands of Joseph Newton, late of Milford, Feb. 10, 1808, to Jonah Newton (Milford Land Record 24:363 & 561)." Joseph Newton, who died at Milford 11 November 1807, was Phebe's brother, not her father, and the Jonah Newton to whom the land was transferred was probably her other brother.
Most show her as married, in error, to William HERRING. Renee Newman emailed, on October 19, 2012, that "The will of Isaac Newton has been transcribed wrong. It ia available online through familysearch.com Will Book A page 358 and the daughter is Phebe Herringtine, not Herring. I suppose since these were handwritten later and put in alpha order the person didn't understand that there were Herringtine's and Herring's in Duplin but they left "tine" off the transcript completely, even though it is clearly there. Her husband was William Herringtine of Duplin/Sampson and they sold their Sampson land in 1784 and moved beside the Newton's in New Hanover (Isaac witnessed their deeds there). They moved to Barnwell, SC and Hugh Roney and wife Elizabeth Newton, were their neighbors. I can go from there. Willaim was presumed to die in Perry County, MS but did not, he lived on and remarried and died in Desoto County, Ms. I have just found this recently. Researchers of this William have "lost" his wife and presume he was from a Herrington family in Craven County. They had sons Isaac, Enoch, daughter Jemima and a grandson Isaac N Stephens----"
Renee added that she was "a researcher/descendant of the Herrington family of Duplin/Sampson. Willaim and James Herrendine/Herringtine/Herrington, probably sons of Peter Herrendine of Duplin (land later in Sampson but granted in Duplin 1759)."
