Hi,

I'm looking for links to the name Bawgus (Eastern Tenn variation). We have solid links to the Bauguess name from Wilks Co, NC. Also have links to the Baugess name in Ashe, NC. Would like to link to the Boggess name of VA, KY and elsewhere. I understand we also link to Boggess in Wales and Scotland.

Thanks

Lace_Lynch — 2011-09-28 14:59:06Z

LANCASTER: William (Bill) Ray Boggess, of Lancaster, Ohio was born in Baltimore, Ohio in 1926, passed away on September 26, 2011.

He was preceded in death by his mother and father, Mabel and Lyle Boggess, sister, Shirley Crist and infant brother Ned Boggess.

Bill was a WW II veteran serving on the Navy USS Atherton DE-169, which was credited with destroying the last German U-boat 853, off Block Island, RI on May 6, 1945.
After the war, he attended the Pittsburgh School of Mortuary Science and joined funeral homes in Wooster and Columbus, Ohio.
In 1955, he joined Nationwide Insurance Co. and after 30 years retired in 1985 as a district claims manager. He is survived by his wife Marie and their two daughters Penny Jo Stephens of Lancaster and Sally Ann (Ned) Rissberger of Florida, nieces and nephews Melanie (Tim) King, Jennifer Crist, Greg Crist and Kenny (Sherri) Crist.

Bill was a member of Baltimore Lodge #0475, F. &A.M., Life Member of the American Legion, member of the Fraternal Order of Eagles, member of the Loyal Order of Moose Lodge #955, member of The Elks, Life Member of AmVets and Life Member of VFW Post #1380.
Throughout the years, he enjoyed spending time at the family lake homes at Burr Oak and Buckeye Lake where he renovated each one, creating fond memories and making them a special place for family gatherings.
He so enjoyed his pontoon boats while exploring the lakes with family and friends as well as traveling to Florida to spend time with his daughters.
He liked to garden, work at his tool bench and fix anything broken. His sense of humor was legendary whether he was aggravating others or playing a practical joke- Bill loved a good laugh. He will be sadly missed.

Now that we have y-DNA markers for the Boggess family of Virginia & the Bauguess family of North Carolina (the markers prove that these are the same), it would be nice to try to persuade some of the English & French variants to get tested to see if they also match those of the Virginia family.

This prove faster than anything where in England we really need to look.

hkturpin — 2011-04-07 05:25:30Z

I checked the 1920 United States Census

https://www.familysearch.org/search/collection/show#uri=http...

and found an Ida Boggess born 1897 married to Bobby B Boggess with a daughter named Alpha Alice, living in West Virginia. Perhaps this is your family.

Good Luck,

If you can take your line back a bit further than Robert, he will probably tie into the huge Boggess family of northern Virginia. Tim

I'm a lost Boggess. I have some info that may be helpful which may help me in Return. I was born and raised in N Va. My mothers maiden name is Boggess. My Mother was born in WVa. Her fathers name was Clifford P. Boggess. He had three siblings that I know of and a military background. His fathers name was Robert & his mother Ida.

Thanks for your time!

I have a Greatgrandfather John Logan Boggess (wife Amanda Ecberg Boggess) who was born in Iowa 11 March 1885. I can't find his mother nor father but John L. listed his parents as both being born in Kentucky. Perhaps my Greatgrandfather is a nephew or cousin of your relatives. Hope this may help you.

Obituary: Stanley Boggess, Ashland, Kentucky (1915-1939)

iidabelle — 2011-02-19 07:29:51Z

I’m posting this obituary in case someone may need it. I do not know the family and have no other information on this family.

Portsmouth Times, Portsmouth, Ohio
Friday, July 28, 1939
Stanley Boggess
ASHLAND, July 28 – Stanley Boggess, 24, of 327 13th Street, died Thursday. He is survived by his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Henry Boggess; two sisters, Mrs. Marcella O’Brien of Portsmouth and Betty Hope Boggess and a brother, Henry Broggess Jr. at home.

Re: John Boggess and his 2 wifes

JohnEBoggess — 2011-02-14 05:19:55Z

Another Boggess researcher shows Anna 'Eliza' Watson as John's first wife, but no sources were listed for this nor do the Boggess books by JoAnn Smith and Joanna Fox show a maiden name. I have not yet found anything else to corroborate the last name of Watson.

Jessie V. (Boggess) Schemmer lists her parents as John W. Boggess and Mary Kenyon on the 1925 Lyon Co., Iowa census. It is possible Mary is the daughter of, or related to, Oliver and Lavina Kenyon who came from New York and Portage Co., Ohio to Winneshiek Co., Iowa (next to Howard Co., where at least some of John and Mary's children were born). A quick search of adjoining counties did not reveal any other likely Kenyons.

Please update us periodically about anything else you are able to uncover about this branch of our Boggess family.

sassien24502 — 2010-07-13 16:56:26Z

Mary Ann Boggess married David Carlisle - that's in several documented sources. Lydia Jane Boggess married James Alexander and Mary Ann Carlisle verified her daughter Lydia's age. This is in documented sources, too. So if Mary Ann was a Boggess before she was a Carlisle - what was her maiden name? Was it Lindsay - daughter of Robert Lindsay and Susanna Opie? Was it Boggess and she had Lydia out of wedlock? This Mary Ann is one of my brick walls!
