Comments: So glad to see that the Russell Co. GenWeb page is "active" again. You already have a link to the Heaberlin Family Genealogy home page but I would like to point out that within this page at the above URL is a preliminary research report for The Descendants of Joel Ramsey and Abigail Freeman. Joel was a Revolutionary War Pensioner from Russell Co. Other surnames include Belcher, Beverly, Bush, Counts, Dyer, Fraley, Franklin, Horn, Jessee, Kiser, Nash, Sutherland, Wheatley and many other Russell Co. surnames. I invite all Russell Co. resarchers to stop by. You can use your browser's "find" function to find your surnames of interest after reading about Joel and Abigail's lives in Russell Co.

Comments: Found this site while tracing my family ancestry. Quite a few of my family were from Russell County going back to 1737 when a Thomas Hendricks settled in what was to become Russell County. He had a land grant from colonial Virginia, later added to by a land grant from Virginia, issued by Patrick Henry, and he built a home there at Elk Garden in about 1806. I have a list of names and dates but wish I could get some more detailed information about family members descending from Russell County.
