| I started doing my family genealogy in January 1997. What a lot of fun! It is like a detective story, and I have to find the clues to solve the puzzle. My paternal line is GENTRY (Allen D. GENTRY, my 3rd great grandfather), from Monroe County, Tennessee; Surry County, North Carolina; and Virginia. My husband's paternal line is also from Tennessee-right next door to Monroe CO-his great grandfather James Henry BOOKOUT was from McMinn County, TN. Seems both families had that good old American wandering spirit, as both the BOOKOUT and GENTRY folk moved outta TN to parts West-the BOOKOUT's to Texas, and the GENTRY's to Nebraska. But they both ended up in California, where my husband and I met. I am always thrilled to hear from "cuzzins" that share any family line. Other names I am researching: HOLLINGSWORTH (NC, MO, IL, KS), WEST (NC, MO), CLOUSE (TN, OK), IVY (TN). |
