Also from what people tell me at work...not cheap, and almost certainly more comfortable in your own chair.....

Don't think I've sat in one since I was 18 or 19 years of age, and then I wasn't too interested in what was showing, well not on the screen anyway! lol

James, very good from what I understand..Daniel-Day Lewis is up  for all kinds of nominations on it here soon for awards...you  know James, Abe Lincoln is an in-law realtion to my mother's family name...though I'm back into the Huston/Rogers an bit right now also genealogy wise.

Solid "white" on everything out there right now...they said freezing fog this morning..and I'm finsishing off my third loaf of homemade bread..I've done two of the Oatmeal/buttermilk and one of cheese bread for my sister in-law so far. I have some rye bread out for some  Swiss cheese fondo later on also. Hubby left with Mr. O'Donald..Scout master to finsish off the tree recycle today..or at least his little blue sports car is out front... Antique "porche" 2 seater and converitible..Vickie must have their other car.

On this movie thing..yes, it's expenisve to go to the night time showings..but during the day they show them at reduced cost.  So naturally..that's when everyone goes.  Pubs around here have taken up showing movies also in the afternoons...particularily "McMinninen's" ..which is also an hotel resort  chain..as well as Pub (separate) and  fine restrurant and Golf course and Spa.They have very reasonable prices also. If the movie is as good as they say it is..I'll probably buy it some day. Lincoln lived about 30 miles where my mother's family Larkins lived back in Illinois before coming out to Oregon. His campain manager was an near by neighbor also. I looked some into his death...I think Vice president "PIKE" was the man behind his murder.  Just like I think "Johnson" was behind that of JFK's. death. Pike had tremedous stock revenues/money in the building of the railroad from the west coast to the east coast at the time...when Abe was about to set free the " slaves"...he was setting free the railraod"s number one " labor force" for  these tycoons. The

Lawson's have an bi tof an sticky deal going on also at the time..along with the Martin family..also said to been Col. James Martin's group...they were riding ahead of the building of the railroads, buying up old Pony Express stations where the railroad was to go through...then selling the entire works to the railroad. They got to Lawson, Missouri..which is the name they gave it at the time..and the railroad didn't go through...though as far as I'm concerned the money fraud part of this eneded up in Monteray California Bank and Huntingon's account, whom was building the "western division" of the railroad.  Lawson's apparently had talked the Martin's into backing them...and they leave an legacy about being " bilked" out of money from an New York investment firm.Of course none of this has ever been brought up...and John Wilkes Booth..just like Ruby Oswald...appear to be sole actors of the murders.You have to  now thier "associates" to know where to look for this information..or hints of it. At any rate..Pike's Peak is about the only thing Pike is remembered for in history. Native Americans also say they think Abe was an Mengelon blood line also..he has all the colorings in him to been an "Jewish" Native American blood line at some time. His wife grew up as household servant and housekeeperto her mother's sister..whom had married Richard Berry...Lincoln's were their neighbors in Virginia. Rev, JamesKeith daughter married an "Mr. Berry" and were was apparently widowed early...the kids are raised out other people. I beleive this is my mother's lineage in part...Eliza Ann Berry then married Rev. Sam'l Davis family..his oldest son named "Joshua" killed in the Rev. War era..she then married into James Glenn family..he was territorial Govenor of Augusta Co., Va. prior to the Rev War..they left and moved down to North Carolina. Some other people are saying that Eliza Ann Davis is an "nikkie" lineage...the sister of Pocahontas in Augusta Co., Va.  Kentucky historical society has been looking into this now. They say that the cabin that Abe grew up in was owned by Richard Berry originally. Keith's married into the well known "Randoph" family os Williamsburg...and Marjorie Pope should be able to join the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) on that alone as I've been talking to one such lady already is in it.. for an long time now. But its this Rosealie Pleis..I think I have mentioned to you all before disputes me on this. She has written some something completely different for the family back east. She comes from an another line then then the oldest brother with the first wife.. of Jeremiah Larkins m. Sarah Ann Davis. I have also been told she was an whore in her day...why I have no idea, maybe because she was an widow..or Narive American?..I have no idea...all women were subject to men back then for thier livelihoods. I don't know if she was or wasn't bu tit takes an "man" to make one. Rosalie has also made Elizabeth Davis the mother of Sarah Anb Davis..not her sister as what I see in the census records.  Last I found Joshua Davis he was in New York..in the war...supposedly according to his son..he died at King's Mountain..down in the South. HIs parents were killed by Indians in the Battle of Point Pleasant also...and John (younger)Davis raised the rest of the sisters and brothers. I find that Eliza Ann Davis was with Col. William Blount asking for help to retrieve an younger Samuel Davis from the captivity by John Watts..along with one Samuel Handley (Hailey)..whcih is done eventually...they liked both these men, and worked as Interpreters for the Cherokee on several treaties. An Samuel I think is him also, left records that he was born in Illinois..when I went back there in person...armed with data that Florence Larkins gave me..I was lookin gover old maps..as our Strawn Ancestor was the first in the area...I saw an "blockhouse" homestead that was called "Fort Davis" on the map..but saw nothing mentioned of it in thier history...though our Strawn descendent wanted it that way anyway for historical prosperity...being thier director and local historian back then.  According to the cemetary records...and by the Latter Day Saints Library in Salt lake City...our Elizabeth Davis was raised by John Davis also. He owned an mill in Pittsylvania Co., Virginia. I heard he was an mean "slave master" though from someone else...the Native Americans say he was one of them also...I haven't' decided on that one...but non of our family owned slaves...though the Lawson's did at one time. But by the time this generation comes about...as far as I can see neither side did...and I maintain this because they were Reverands..church elders rather they were Baptist or Methodist and we know that Racheal Reed/Read came from an Quaker up bringing...turned Baptist out in the frontier region. Native Americans were not proned to be "Baptist"...they like the Methodist style of preaching though...as like thier warriors..they travelled the countryside. This Davis family in Virginia was the Grandson of the Rev. Sam'l Davis that founded Princeton University in New Jersey. He was the one that sent "Keith" back to Scotland to get his "holy papers" for cleryman work here in the Colonies.  He was also an friend of George Washington's also. Supposedly the Berry family were from Devon Englnd having immigrated from France earlier..they were probably "Mason's" at some time..that comes from DNA samples. I take it that they too may of had the dark skin like "Abe"... and were thought part negro at one time, instead of middle eastern "Jewish"..probably because people thought of them as the orphan's they were.. to been an "slave"... instead of  being without parental upbringing due to possible Indian raids at the time. Chalkleys has considerable about the people they were warded out to..and indeed they were mean to them in many cases as they are in court asking to be taken away from them by the courts for "child abuse".Particualry James Berry whom is later seen at Fort Boonsbourgh with Daniel Boone. Hencefoth the little entry by the Bird-Allen family came out to Oregon in 1847 with my ancestor that his wife was born at "Ft. Boonsbough" as an child in Kentucky.Our family back where William E. Larkins says he was born..Tenneessee....were long time Masonic Lodge members...since the end of the 1700's it is known. The last rites of this organization is out of Scotland...at Rossyln Chapel...with the Sin-Clair family. When they reach this degree of "masonary" they have connected with the "source" of Godliness in an "universal" way of servitude to mankind.

But anyway...years down th eline of indepth research work makes me wrong I guess you know...and now...about Keturah Haily...Jereminah's second wife...whom I feel was kind to either

Rinchard handley(Hailey)..but more likely Samuel Hailey...as John

Watts..mother's lineage was that "Wetura"...and his line starts out with an half-breed legacy also....that may of been "Letts/Lotts" and

kin to our Rachel Reed (Read) Larkins lineage. I'm checking on that one now, and it it's through the Leni Lape (Deware) Indians it may never be found...but biblically "Keturah" was the second wife of Moses...according to Bullinger...this family is stated on page 212...as with wife "Keturah"...representing to the Lord.. as an number of 13..meaning "chaos" in general and rebellion to the cause of the Lord...and "rosalie" has certainly been that one to me in the work of which I reguard as somewhat "holy" in ways. I am also an 13 person..but I self-destroy myself in the process of the whole, with over lapping 7's ..and all things connected with the outcome being the numbers compatible with "God".Anyway...since I have no daughters...I don' t care what she say's any more, if I did, they would be Lawson's anyway..for the most part.. I know there is an "truth" in the end... they will be judged by thier good works towards others..like everyone else. I am glad though that Katherine O'Canna was not alive to see what she did to the family legacy though. Elizabeth Davis and the Rev. James Bruce Chenoweth had an family all of thier own. She doesn't as far as I know have them in her legacy. she claims that Sarah Ann Davis is her daughter...not her sister as Ihave her..both in Census as daughters of Eliza Ann Davis in Virgina.She states that William E. Larkins wasn't born in Tenn..it was Penn.instead.... Elizabeth's first husband was an Thomas Davis, an doctor..which one I have no idea.  I now have three of them. One of them named Elizabeth is David Bowie's sister...famous at the alamo..and an "long hunter" frontiersman...another one of them looks an bit "shady" for beign an Reverand most his life...and another one said the Reverand to George Washington at his death. Thing of it is...we don' thave to many Thomas named legacy in the family in an way during that era to deal with it all. I keep working at it. I'd rather write about thier lives then whom they control to be number one historian in the family. this faucet was never the intent of why I went into genealogy to begin with. Maybe she gets this from Nathan Lawson...as he's much like this also in ways. They tend to kill the livelihood to anyone that is forced to follow them. Something akin to George Washington never having any of his own legacy blood-line children also...though he also raised plenty of others during his time I go for now..

Yep, James, and posting the truth got me knocked off my lap top again..it's out of use...they hit my registery again I think....they are doing this through add-ons I am pretty sure. Because hubby's PC has already told me they have been blocked now four times from trying to breach it..and it asks if you want "add-ons" and most the time we decline them..secuirty takes care of them beforehand.My lap top doesn't do that...they load automatically rather I want them or not...so handy way for the virus to be given to me to knock me off. Doesn't stop me..as I still have hubby's computer. It goes to show you though that someone wants t "lie" about my mother's family to control others with the data they want "implanted"..I am pretty sure that I must know whom they are also...in some ways. I wonder of they were doing this to Florence Larkins and that's why she slipped me the original letters about the research done long long time ago. She told me that someone was borowing her stuff and not returning it...I told her then if it was me..I'd be more then willing to send it all back... as there's xerox machines these days...she said "no"..keep it..which means she was afraid someone ELSE was after her work. Of course... they have also back "east" wiped out the data concerning my mother's  family also. But I still have those originals.Could be the Lawson's as they are affliated in many ways.....Esp the Lawson-Graves-Riley group. Whatever, I do think it is centered around Sarah Ann Davis Larkin for some reason. Sorry for the long post though. I would not say all this if I had not over the years taken great pains and many times went "in person" to hunt it all down. I still at that have an lot of descripencies of information. I think at times also that hubby's side may of taken in my widowed "Larkin" mother also...and thier family doesn't want it known either...esp if they had "step-children" together...or any of them took one name over the previous..such as John Larkin beign an John Lawson or the same with William Larkin. One of three William Larkin is the grandson of the William Rogers family...and his " will" clearly shows what I think is James Larkins wintering his cattle for him as an neighbor perhaps amoung his debts owed at the time of his death. Not much of the data on the DAR James Larkins appears correct. I said that before and they came back from Salt Lake City and said.."she's correct on this...what's been said is incorrect. So then they came up with the Indian captive of  Col. James Martin possibly being this "James Larkins" also  I think that finding one the only James Larkin in the area mentioned once to an Mary McAdoo i swho I'm looking for...as the Tenneessee John Larkin married Sarah McAdoo...they they took on the "S" also later on...but I am not going to say for sure on that one as of yet...I'll be writing about that part next...if I'm allowed. Gotto go...
