The main Surnames I am researching are NOBLE/NOBLES, OSBORN/OSBORNE, MCKIDDY, JOHNSON, AND JOLLY/JOLLEY.
I started this to help my daughter, Sharminta Vest, know her roots.We started searching in July, 1999 and with only the information that my aunt Mildred Wilson, of Duncan Oklahoma, could give me.We started out with John NOBLES born in 1790.I have been able to connect us back to Somerset County, Maryland in 1615 to Isaac NOBLES.We have a land deed for him and have traced the family with there move to Hanover County, Virginia to Pitt County, North Carolina and onto Gibson County, Tennessee and eventually to John NOBLES.
John NOBLES eventually moved to Dallas County, Texas and then his son, David Amacy NOBLES, my great grandfather moved his family to Indian Territory, Oklahoma.My grandfather, Oscar Thomas NOBLES married Sephronia OSBORNE, daughter of Thomas Monroe OSBORNE and Rhoda Ann MCKIDDY.
We have now linked the two families and many others.I would like to thank all the help I have received from the cousins I have found on the internet.They are Charles NOBLES of Oklahoma, Janie PUTMAN, of Gibson County, Tennessee, and John MCDONNEL of Bowie, Maryland for the NOBLES information.I would also like to thank Anna DUNNIGAN for all the help and information she has been able to find on both the NOBLES and OSBORNE families.Without their help none of this would have come together as soon as it did.Another thank you needs to go to Roy JUCH for his link to the TULL family and J. R. HAMRICH fro his links to the JOLLEY family.
I am also reseaching the following Surnames:
O'CONNOR (my mother Elizabeth Brundage O'Connor) maiden name
BRUNDAGE (my grandmother Francis Parkinson Brundage-my mother's mother)
PARKINSON (to try to connect to my grandmother)
