Patricia (Sparkman) Thomas

To Patricia Thomas and to whom it may concern:

Some years ago while constructing a Glenn Family Tree now containing over 6,000 names, I included the following line back from a known great grandparent, Lavinia Fitzgerald, to William the 1st by using Ancestry’s green leaf method.

The specific included line

1 Robert R Glenn 1930, 2 Marjorie McNair 1906, 3 Alice F. Smith 1884, 4 Lavina Robb 1837, 5 Susan Finch 1801, 6 Lavinia Fitzgerald, 7 Kitturah “Kitty” Neville 1736, 8 John Neavill 1689, 9 Col. John Neville 1662, 10, James Neville 1640, 11 John Neville 1612, 12 Edward Neville 1551, 13 Edward Neville 1518, 14 Sir Edward Neville 1471, 15 George Neville 1440 , 16 Edward Neville 1417, 17 Joan DeBeaufort 1375, 18 John of Gaunt 1340, 19 Edward III 1312, 20 Edward II 1284, 21 Edward I 1239, 22 Henry III, 23 John I 1167, 24 Henry II 1133, 25 Maltilda 1102, 26 Henry I 1068, 27 Wm the Conqueror 1024

The accuracy of Ancestor’s info and this line now appears to be questionable in the following respects.

While appearing to be accurate from Lavinia Fitzgerald down to the present living person, from Ralph and Joan Beaufort Neville back to William the 1st, and from Edward, son of Ralph and Joan, # 16, down to the last Edward b. 1551, #12, doubt arises as to some of the other Neville family members shown in between and specifically as to whether or not individual # 11, John Neville, an apparent Neville family immigrant, was the son of individual # 12, Edward Neville, and also, whether individual # 7, Kitty Neville Fitzgerald, was a daughter of individual # 8, John Neville (spelled Naevill).

Even though individual #12, the last Neville father in the line to remain in England, is shown to have had a son named John who could have been the immigrant John Neville (individual #11), and the birth dates for these two look as that being a possibility, there is no clear or really any evidence of this being a fact.

I believe one of the comments on Wikitree indicates that the last Edward’s son named John died at a young age. Also see the disputed parents comments on Wikitree under John Neville (abt. 1612-1664).

And, while the records may indicate that the last Neville father shown in the U.S. had a daughter named Kitturah or “Kitty”, I have also seen evidence of there being another U.S. Neville daughter by another U.S. Neville father with the same name.

Patricia,

I edited the bio of Hardy Raulerson to read Hardee Raulerson, based on the birth/death dates you gave. I also sent you a private e-mail about Sarah Elizabeth Raulerson Cook, and Sarah Eliza Sparkman Raulerson.

Patricia, you've been a contributor to the profile of Reuben-38 in the past. I invite you to see the latest comment posted on that profile. Thanks.

I hope you are well. I emailed you regarding the Timmons-1192 and the merger that was rejected. But if you can take a look, the other profile Timmons-2141, Manager is saying there is wrong data on the Timmons-1192. I only wanted to place the image for the marriage record on the correct profile. They sure look one/same but she is saying the son Thomas is in the wrong county????????? good luck I leave it to you and her.

Hi Patricia,

Thanks for your help in maintaining James Markham.

However, in your edits here and again here, you repeatedly inadvertently removed some <ref name=xxx> definitions. Please be sure you understand how these footnote references work so that you do not inadvertently remove them as we don't want to lose source information from our profiles. If you need any help with this, please let me know. In general, please never remove a definition like <ref name=MySource1>Some source information</ref> and if it is in a section you wish to remove, relocate the source to another place in the profile, such as a place it is referenced such as in this example, replacing one like this: <ref name=MySource1 />.

You can read more about them here.

Thanks again.

Hello, My Name is Christopher C. Boyle I am a Georgetown, SC historian who has published three books on Georgetown history to date. I am currently under contract to publish my fourth book with McFarland Press. I am interested in using this picture of J. R. Sparkman in my upcoming book. Please email me to give me permission to use this photo. I will need a copy of higher resolution. Mr. Sparkman was a leading member of the Georgetown planter class of the 1840s-1860. He was heavily involved in the planters Club on the Pee Dee and the Winyah and All Saints Agricultural Society. The forthcoming book is about the form and function (purpose) of the social clubs and societies of the planters during the Antebellum Years. The book is 90,000 words long, so it will be a major contribution to the history of Georgetown. Mr. Sparkman's picture should be included in the work. Thank you, Christopher C. Boyle [email address removed]

Thanks for all the additions and corrections to the Nesbit profiles. (My sister's husband.)

Thanks so much for your updates to the Cadwell family! They are not my direct ancestors so I'd be more than happy to transfer profile management to you.

Idk which is correct VanKirk or Van Kirk ? I think all mine are VanKirk.

Congratulations Patricia !

Hello,

I agree with your mission and will abide by your rules. I wrote a genealogy book on my family tree in 2000 (and will be happy to share info and pictures), but I am sure there is much more info available now.
