Good morning Richard...how's the snow cones going in your area?..out of them as yet? Can they be made with fruitful flavored liquors? Such as Raspberry Brandy?..just joking. James I've never worked so hard for nothing since I "retired" in my life...and if anyone needs money...they think I should have it I guess you know. Ladies my age were pretty well kept to making the minium wage and had NO benefits as they were expected to be married and have an husband to supply them what they needed ..few do these days. Ok, Dna on "bigfoot" reveals that it is an species akin to humans, but not humans that arrived on the scene some 150,000 years ago so they are new in an way..not relate to the netherals and earlier races of men. They live pretty much in caves it's thought...or subterean...and hard to find because they come out at night and if frieightened, lay on the ground...don't move, with thier brown fur you can walk right past them... and never see them. They do have an ordor though..they think one they throw off if freightened...if not just plain body oder otherwise. Reports out of Russia include an mand that had one as an servant...who he let the guys at an party have "fun" with her and she had six kids. Likewise....Native americans have reports of them carrying off their women for inter-breeding also They believe there is an population somewhere around 30,000 of them in the US...there have never been any reported in Hawaii.For the most part they are peaceful and want nothing to do with mankind...stay in groups of thier own. The scientist whom did this study on them apparently knows someone that has made freinds with one of the groups. She said that until she met this group that she never beleived they really existed...and refuses to give out their where-abouts for thier own survival. So you see...the old line of things "getting rather hairy these days" could well apply. She did not say if they were "intuitive" or could "shape shift in her report...though she was an DNA specialist more then anything else. I go for now...raining, we just had an storm front come through. Have an good weekend everyone! |

Sk Lawson Posts: 4014 Joined: 7th Oct 2010 Location: USA | Posted at 07:07 on 23rd February 2013 So what happened to the sticks and stones...they never break your bones..... like an lot of weight can. Where's James at?....James I'm getting ticked off with the new generations and all their lying. ....Esp in genealogy. I just told my neice who I found she was related to 35 years ago and I was afraid the new historians have made her kin to "Donald Duck" possibly...All for the need of fame an fortune. The new history is calling one building three different names in one situation...it's getting impossible. My grandson is here tonight, the other one comes tomarrow night after an sock hop dance at his school. I spent my last dime and dollar of Scout Candy bars and jerky tonight also...for thier fundraiser. I tell you the deep snow is beautiful at Government camp right now on TV...all you need is an comfy place to spend the weekend..one where there's an restruant and an huge warm fireplace...maybe someone to talk to now and then. Timberline...13 inches of new snow. I go, just put my grandson to bed beside me here in his siter's bed. Long day. |

Sk Lawson Posts: 4014 Joined: 7th Oct 2010 Location: USA | Posted at 18:43 on 23rd February 2013 Good morning..I'm here with my eyes half opened and a cup of coffee...I sent the guys out to breakfast just an bit ago...give them something to do on an rainy morning. I stayed up writing until around 2 am last night. I had one heck of an time trying to find the hisorty of Misterton Hall...in fact I never did...the area was lumped sum into and town near by called Crewkerne...with the castle there in ruineit had been the Royal residence of King Alfred..tax exempt. Anywho..they had given this guy named Rivers from Normany with William the Conqueror some property in the area slo, though he's buried in his homeland, Riviers France/Normany..John Lawson and his 14 dessecentds with him married Sarah Rowlands...his son's and family all went to America...whihc included one Christopher Lawson..and hsi Son "Epaphroditus married Elizabeth Medestard..that might be the Minsteron name, but never found out who the town was named after...supposedly their daughter named The Elizabeth married Robert Payne. The Payne occupation when they landed in early virginia founding days was was "clothier". This are was an textile area..later changed into making sails for the Navy. According to this history I found Sir Thomas Payne bought land from Sir Henry Darcy and married Margt. Pulteney in the area...another small town near by. Sir Robert Payne acrquired his father's land here...around 1590. So it makes perfect sense to me why in our records over here...Epaphraditus woould go to Maryalnd with Edward Dorsey and the Howards. Edward Dorsey's wife was Margt., and daughter of John Larkin. But Dorsey owned an lot of large estate and was into the ship business...he would of needed someone thatwould know how to keep his ships in tip top shape. Ww shorten his name to "Eppa" here in writing about him, but he's got data also concerning London merchants that founded "Jamestownn, Vrgnia. Pokining around in England I found an brief visit to the church there of St. Bartholmew of one Nathaniel Nosse..may of been Nathaniel Causey of early Jamestown, virginia. It says of this church that it was fortified with knights of rthe King and the Bishop of Salsibury when not protecting the royals. My books out of Jamestwon says of Nathaniel Causey he was an old solider that came in the first suply of Jamestown in 1608...he took out an land grant in 1620. His "Causey's Care" or thought to be clear estate was across from Jordan Journey...in the 1622 Indian massacre he chased the Indians off by tomahawking one of them in their head..he had five servants. Jordan Journey was an bigger plantation....when the master died in 1623 his wife managed to get herself betrothed to two men at the same time that the courts had to look into..one was named Capt William Farfar and the other other was named Rev. Greville Pooley. Apparently Causey went over there to help his widow run his plantation...it had 42 people, and boasted of three boats with 38 small arms and 36 items of armor...along with 22 houses. So maybe ti was Nathniel Causey was an young knight at sometime earlier in England. Doesn't say who the widow ended up with also, other then they made an proclamation that an woman thereafter could not make agreement to but one suitor. Pooley most like became the name of Claypool later on in Virginia history...as the Farfar became the ferrers and Benjamin Franklin's maternal line. In this time of the Indians masaacres they badly needed arms to defend themselves with and people that knew how ot use them. they use to take thier guns and make decorations on the wall with them to show thier military might. and for easy access to them. They thought so much of wool carpeting they used them on thier tables rather then on the floor as the rugs. Most of the Plantation owners were either tobacco growers, merchants, or ship owners of some kind in those early days. Nathaniel apparently comes off another Lawson group though then the ones in this area. "eppa" owned 6,050 acres of ground in Virginia. What you think..if "Eppa's" wife so said Elizabeth Medestard, was the same as an "Mistenton" in this area? I wonder who I'd go about finding them with no history on them at the manor hall there. The area's second industry appears to been in Tallow making candles and soap boiling. Besides textiles (stockings) and sails for the Navy.I need to get going,... I think the guys are back now. Have an good day everyone. |
