CULP, DAVIS posted by

I am a descendant of Amos Baldwin CULP and Clora DAVIS. I'm looking
for more information on both their parents. I am the
great-great-granddaughter of their son Amos Daniel CULP. Any information
would be appreciated. I don't know much at all about Clora DAVIS
except her husband was Benjamin DAVIS, so DAVIS was her married name.
My Amos Baldwin CULP was born somewhere in North Carolina in
1801 or 1804. He died in 1885 in Macoupin County. All the names of his
children match so he is the grandfather in Benjamin's story [1904
Benjamin CULP biography]. His son Daniel was actually Amos Daniel CULP,
who was my ancestor. I have Amos Baldwins CULP's parents as
William CULP and Mary (BALDWIN) CULP. My William CULP was the father of
Amos Baldwin CULP so the William CULP in [the 1904 William CULP
biography] is a cousin of my line. Amos Baldwin CULP's wife was
Jane DAVIS born in 1811 in North Carolina. She died in Brighton,
Illinois in 1880. Eliza (CULP) COFFEE, who married Henry COFFEE
[mentioned in 1904 Henry M. COFFEE biography], was the daughter of my
Amos and Jane CULP. Thank you, Debra Carlson Carlson011@gannon.edu

My cousin, Dannell Aukerman, may have made contact with Macoupin county
several years ago in reference to our shared family ancestry in Greene and
Macoupin counties, from 1820 until around 1888. In case she hasn't, here's
our genealogical information on John P Ward,
my GGGF. I'd be interested in learning anything more about his life and
associations in that county, if possible. Very pleased to make your
acquaintance, Scott A. "Scotty" Ward scottydc@yahoo.com

Piecing things together here’s how I think things unfolded: 1.
Alfred William Robinson (1872-1949) marries Emily Jane Sawyer in the
1890s. They have two children together; Francis Alfred born about 1897
and Edward Victor born about 1901. 2. At the same time, Nellie Jane
Robinson (1878-1952) is married to Alfred James. They have two children
together; Annie born about 1909 and William George Manning born October
1, 1911, in Carlinville, Ill. 3. Emily Jane Robinson (nee Sawyer)
dies. 4. Alfred James dies June 9, 1912. 5. Alfred Robinson
marries Nellie Jane James (nee Robinson) in 1914 in Salmon Arm, BC
(Nellie’s name is given as Nellie J. James and both are widowed). They
have one child together; Arthur Kenneth Robinson born about 1916.

James. 1921 Canada Census. 1935 marriage registration for

William Robinson. 1998 death registration for William George Manning

I'm hoping to find a birth record from Carlinville, Illinois for 1911
but I'm having trouble determining where I should be looking. The birth
is for William George Manning James, born October 1, 1911. I think his
parents were William George James and Nellie Jane Robinson but that is
one thing I'd like to confirm with a birth record. I’ve just
found William’s obituary. I’m thinking that his mother, Nellie Jane
first married William George James. Maybe she was widowed. Then I think
she married Alfred William Robinson. If William George was born
in Carlinville, Illinois, then it’s likely that the older children were
too. However, If Alfred Robinson and Nellie James (both widowed) were
married in 1914 in Canada, then Arthur Kenneth would be the only child
they had together. Alfred would have had the following with his
first wife: Francis Alfred born around 1897; Edward Victor born around
1901. Nellie would have had the following with her first husband: Annie
born around 1909; William born Oct 1, 1911. How can I find the birth
records for Francis and Edward, presumably born in Illinois?
Thanks for your advice, Charlotte Gorley cgorley@shaw.ca
