I just wanted to tell you what
a find!!!!! I couldn't believe it I have been looking so hard for anything to
do with Floyd county and there it was and all my ancestors! I finally found
their siblings. I did want to say that for Charles Rierson it was written
that his father was Stephen Rierson/Ryerson and his
mother was Nancy but his mother was Mary Kime. And
for a Martha W. Walton she was married to a James W. Rierson these were my
great grandparents. Thanks again for such a useful site. Thank you for getting back to
me. I know this must keep you very busy, I don't know how you do it. Okay, my
grandfather was James Elzy Rierson m: Myrtle Odell Wilson on 8-11-1924 in
Floyd county either Copper Hill or Check. His parents were James W. Rierson
b: 6-16-1875 m: Martha W. Walton 1-1-1896. His parents were James W Rierson
married to Matilda E. Simpson Walters, she was a widow of William P. Walters
and Matilda's parents were James and Elizabeth Simpson. I have a David
married to Mary Gillespie. David was the son of Charles and Jane Rierson, The
only thing I have on a Stephen who was also Charles and Janes son was married
to a Francis Stump. I was very confused about all the James' myself. Martha
Woodie Walton's parents were James W. Walton and Mary J. Conner. My
grandmother Myrtle Odell Wilson's parents were Oliver Blain Wilson and Lula
Virginia Manning. Now Oliver's father's mother was Emma Odell Conner and
Emma's mother was Mary Iddings, Lula Mannings
parents were Robert Manning and Melinda Easter or Ester. All from Floyd county.
Everyone was named JAMES it seems! Now, Charles Rierson's
parents Stephen Ryerson and Mary Kime. Stephen has
a colorful history to him and he had a total of 15
kids , the first 5 were born in Rockbridge county Va
to an Elizabeth Kime d/o Henrick Kime and the sister of Mary Kime
his second wife. We can't figure out what happened there because it was
proven that the marriage bond of his second wife Mary was a fake they both
lied in the pension file that they were married in Bath Va but he was still married to her sister and all
five of his kids from Eliz. were bound out. So, Charles had a big family, The
children of Stephen and Mary and Eliz. were: from
Elizabeth were: Betsy, William, Catherine, Jacob, Nancy. From second marriage
with Mary were James, Eleanor, Bethany, Stephen Jackson, Margaret, Robert,
Elijah, Charles (who went to Floyd) Winston and William Golding. I am stuck
however on Stephen Ryerson he was born 2-9-1763 in Dutchess
county N.Y and can't find his parents or siblings. Well
I hope you're not too confused. I know I threw out different families at you.
Supposedly Martha Walton was a decendent of George
Walton the signer of the Declaration of Independence. WE are still trying to
figure that out what I have on that is sketchy on the dates. ******************************************* And from Barb Stanley to the
FCVA Newslist: Rierson info I have from a long
lost subscriber says: Descendants of Stephen Ryerson |
