Re: Elizabeth (Chaney) Ford - Pulaski Co., KY - Early 1800s

SarahFord88 — 2009-11-23 02:27:17Z

Hello,

I can't really help you with any information regarding Elizabeth Ford, but as far as George Ford is concerned I can be of a little help.

What I know from my own line is this, two lines of Fords came out of KY. They were Lisby Ford and Malichai(sp) Price Ford. Lisby was my 3rd great grandfather. If you can find information on those two lines I'm sure you'll find what you're looking for.

I hope this was of some help to you.

Elizabeth (Chaney) Ford - Pulaski Co., KY - Early 1800s

EHVannoy — 2009-11-20 23:16:37Z

My grt-grt-grandmother, Mary Ann (Ford) Truel's death certificate states that her father was Geo. Ford and her mother was Elizabeth Chaney, b. Kentucky. Other records show that Mary Ann Ford's parents (George W. Ford's family) lived in Pulaski Co., KY and that Mary Ann's mother probably died there before 1850.

I would appreciate any information on Elizabeth Chaney, her marriage to George W. Ford and her parents names.

Thank you.

I don't know if you ever got your answer, but I can help.

Alexander Ford is my 4th great-grandfather and Grant, Loyd Sr., Thomas, and Benjamin were his brothers. There were actually 8 brothers total and I think 2 or three girls.

Lisby was Alexander's son.

Hi Jeff

Glad I could help.

Yes, I knew Stella. She was always in the home and a very nice lady. She did all the housework which was made worse by 3 dogs which lived in the house.

Francine Elaine Platt died on 4 June 1992 and was buried in Salt Lake.
She was born on 19 April 1927 in Carthage Missouri.

Fred was born on 7 March 1921 in LaFrellette, Tennessee and died on 5 February 2003 in Knoxville, Tennessee.

Oklahoma Ford

SarahFord88 — 2009-11-16 02:31:55Z

Oklahoma Ford was my great grandfather, and my father has listed the other siblings of Oklahoma but he had little information on them other than names. Their names are; Wealthy Ford, Hattie Ford, Beadie Ford, Houston Ford, Amon Ford, Mary Ford, Effie Ford, and Floy Ford. If anyone has information on Oklahoma's siblings and their offspring, I would greatly appreciate whatever you have!
On a side note, I'm also looking for information on Alexander Ford's offspring as well; again my father only listed the one from our direct line which was Lisby and when it came down to doing Lisby he only listed Benjamen. So really I'm looking for information on the other lines.

Thank you. :D

Re: Alexander Ford

SarahFord88 — 2009-11-16 02:27:01Z

Thank you for the reply, Fred. I'd really appreciate any information regarding the other lines. I sent out an email to you, I hope you didn't delete it by accident. But all the same if you would like any information, my email address is; googoo48@hotmail.com
I know only a little about my line, to be honest. As I said when my father did our tree he didn't go into great detail so I only have at this point names and next to no offspring, except the ones in our direct line.

Hi,

We're definitely related and I know it's already being traced by Barbara. Ephraim Parks was also the father of John Frank Parks - my great grandfather. I don't know much about the Cameron family and have done most of my research with Parks. Let me know if you want to share info.

Re: Curtis Ford son of Fred C. Ford - may have lived in Salt Lake City Utah

hansmansgarage — 2009-11-15 13:46:00Z

Thanks Rudy,

That info helps. After his wife's father died in 1972, her mother (actually step-mother I believe) moved to Salt Lake City to live with the family. Her name was Stella. Not sure if you knew her.

She died in 1991 and was buried at Elysian Burial Gardens, Salt Lake City, Utah.

Do you know if his wife Francine was buried in Salt Lake or about when she died?

I never thought I get a hit on this post. Curtis may be the last of this branch of the family...

Thanks

Hi Sarah,

I am descended from Lloyd III, my 4g-grandfather, a brother of your Alexander. I know of 10 siblings of Alexander namely: Mary, Rebecca, James, Lloyd III, Grant, Nancy, William Enoch, Thomas, And Benjamin White Ford. I am willing to share what info I have. My E-mail; flwagner@charter.net.

Re: Alexander Ford

Correction, Alexander was married to Mary Johnson not Wood. Lloyd, his father, was married to Mary Wood.

Alexander Ford

SarahFord88 — 2009-11-14 14:53:33Z

I'm a direct descendant of Alexander Ford, he was my great-great-great-great grandfather. His father was Loyd Ford and his mother was Mary Wood. Now, I know Alexander had other siblings but my father didn't list any of them and I was wondering if anyone had any information on any of Alexander's other siblings?

Re: William

Glynda40 — 2009-11-14 14:44:30Z

Reba, just saw these older posts on your FORD. Are you the Reba I once communicated w/whose FORDs end up in Northern or Eastern part of AR. in Stone County? Just wondering.
I am interested in your William Ford, born in 1793-98 and want to know if he is the SAME William listed as living in the adjoining county of Bledsoe (next to Rhea) in 1830 or 1840 census? If so, I've long thought this William (there is also a Joseph) FORD could be connected to my John FORD, Sr. (born 1762-1844) who lived in Bledsoe, later named Cumberland County in TN.
The William FORD listed in Rhea in 1850 census and married to Elizabeth, is my g-g-g uncle and he married Elizabeth BINGHAM. They later move to Benton County AR. where his father and siblings live.

Re: Curtis Ford son of Fred C. Ford - may have lived in Salt Lake City Utah

rudyh83634 — 2009-11-12 00:34:23Z

Hi

I was a friend of Fred Ford for all the time he lived in Salt Lake. I first met him because he was an amateur radio operator and I had just earned my novice class ticket. He had moved into the house next door to me on Belmont Avenue.

His wife's first name was Francine.

After his wife died he moved back to Tennesee, his birthplace.

Sorry, I don't know anything current about his son but i knew him when he came home from the military. He had sustained some serious injury to his cheek and skull from a 50 cal. bullet from the ground in Viet Nam. He was a waist gunner on a Cobra helicopter at the time.

Hope that helps.

Sincerely,
Rudy Hausdorf

Re: African American Fords

walada52 — 2009-11-10 01:12:22Z

I have also been researching the FORD surname from Alabama. My grandmother told me that her mother's name was Maggie Ford, and Maggie's mother was Jane Ford, born before emancipation in Alabama. Any other information is unclear, but Maggie had at least one sister named Elizabeth. I believe I found Maggie in Warrior Stand, Macon, AL, in 1880, with her father, James Ford. Even though he was listed as "married", there was no wife in the household. Maggie shows up again in Caddo, Arkansas in 1920, with my grandmother and 2 of my granduncles. For some reason, I thought that my FORDs came from Perry County in AL.

I'm not familiar with either Charles or Mary Ford, but noticed your query for West or Venus. I'm familiar with the Venus Ford story only thru a phenomenal documentary on PBS a few months ago. Check out Linda Allen Ford's website, which has a plethera of info, including her Family Tree. It's http://westfordlegacy.com/home.htm.

My 4th cousin & I are looking for Josephine Burton Ford who was born abt. 1875 in Mississippi. She married Rev. James Ford, April 17, 1894. He was born abt. 1853 also in Mississippi. We know for sure that Josephine existed, but don't have proof of exactly where 7 how. We believe she could be last born of Colonel W.R. Stuart & his former slave Tempy Burton.

If you are referring to Simeon Ford (b.abt. 1745 d.1833 Hogans Creek Caswell Co, NC), I think I can help. This Simeon also had a son named John N.Ford. My father is a direct descendant of John, and therefore Simeon & Winifred.

I am interested in this line also can you tell me if they ended up in Marshall co, Kentucky. I have her father as Absalom and Mary Elizabeth. And a Josiah b. 1835 marrying Katherine Peck, and Josiah adopting Katherine's child George Washington could this be part of the line that you speak of.

POW/MIA Korean War

powmiadna — 2009-11-02 14:20:08Z

I am searching for the family of a soldier who was killed in the Korea War. When he entered service he gave Denver Counrt, Colorado as his home of record. His remains were never recovered. Our government has no family contact at this time for this soldier

Soldier: DONALD RAY FORD
Born: 1927
Date of loss: August 27, 1951 MIA

When the Korean War ended the enemy never returned or accounted for over 8,000 of our servicemen. They died in their hands. That was over 50 years ago. Since that time DNA has been perfected and also they are recovering remains in North Korea. Our government is obligated to return those remains to the proper family. DNA samples have been obtained from most of the families of these missing soldiers. For various reasons some families have not been located.

When the remains are recovered and identified they will be returned to the family for proper burial. I am just an old (79years) Combat Veteran out of the Korean War and thankful that I did return. I consider this a very noble cause and I hope that you can help in some way to find this family. For more information on the project you may go to http://www.jpac.pacom.mil/. My part in the program is to match up the lost families with the proper agency.

I will be grateful for any assistance in locating this family.

Re: Phebe Ford & Peter Wolcott

Hello,
I am interested in your Phebe Ford, and wonder if she might be a sister of our Susannah Ford who married Isaac Ferguson in Quincey, Adams Co., Illinois. They had 3 children, the last resulted in her death in about 1838.
I would enjoy learning more about Phebe's siblings.
You may contact me directly at pearson.george@comcast.net

Do you have the b/d dates for your John Ford? DOo you know the names/dates of his parents. Like your people, my Fords came from Union Coiunty, Illinois to Scott County, Missouri, then to Cape Girardeau, with some moving on to Stoddard County, Missouri.

Ford family lived on SE 1/4 lot 43 con1 Flos at craighurst. They were weavers and my ancestors remembered them as very fine and kind people.about 1877 they moved to a farm in the 2nd concession of Vespra township.Susan`s daughter Hazel Campbell was one of Calgary`s gifted musicians on violin. Her father , Billy campbell was one of the crack shots of the old Barrie fifles, later simcoe Foresters.

Re: FORD: Cape Girardeau, Missouri

jodimclane67 — 2009-10-19 15:58:14Z

It sounds close but I'm not sure.

John Cleary married Sallie Lindsey.

Their daughter, Elizabeth Cleary from Illinois (1869-1944) married John Ford.

From this marriage, they had five children: Raymond, Jake, Jesse, George, and Mattie.

Mattie Martha Ford (1890-1975) married Willis Leonard Reed.

The FORD'S and REED'S came by covered wagon from Union County, Illinois to Scott County, Missouri. From there, they moved and lived in Cape Girardeau, Misouri.

My grandparents are Mattie and Willis. They had ten children, one dying at birth.

Does this information go along with what you have?

jodimclane67 — 2009-10-19 15:50:02Z

I don't have a lot of information, but this is what I have:
Mattie Martha Ford 1890-1975 born in Illinois,
daughter of John Ford 1856-1927 and Elizabeth Cleary 1869-1944,.....and they had four sons: Jess, Jake, Raymond, George.....It then goes to the Clearly line.

I know the Ford family in Cape Girardeau. I went to school with the youngest son, Donald Ford. I don't believe my line is related to them.

Re: FORD: Cape Girardeau, Missouri

Thank you, but this is not the right FORD family. Mine migrated from Illinois to Southeast Missouri between 1908-1912.

Do you know what county/town in Illinois your Fords were from, and what district/township in Cape Girardeau? Do you know when they died?

My Fords were also from Southern Illinois and then moved to the Cape.

I am still searching for my great-grandmother, Sarah Ellen (Ford) Reese, who was married to John Franklin Reese.

Sarah was born in Southern Illinois in 1844. She is with her husband and children in the 1880 census for Ridge Township, Union county, Illinois.

They moved up near Shawnee Township in North Cape Girardeau, where she died on 24 July, 1882. She died at Indian Creek, near Neeley's landing.

Sarah's brother was Joshua Lafayette Ford, born 20 Dec 1843, in Jackson County, Southern Illinois. Joshua was married to Sarah Ellen Isbell. After the Civil War, they moved to Shawnee Township, in Cape Girardeau, where Joshua died, 20 Jan 1905.

I know for sure that Sarah & Joshua were related to the line of Ford's who still operate the Ford Family Funeral Homes in the Cape. Those Fords are descended from the Chesley Ford family, of Cape Girardeau, but I have not
been able to make the connection to Sarah's parents among Chesley's brothers, uncles, cousins?

In the 1850 census for Cape, a couple of houses away from Chesley, a Joshua Ford, age 7, is living with Thompson Hill. Next door, in the household of Margry Hill, there is a Sarah Ford, age 60. If she was 6 instead of 60, they could have been my Sarah & Joshua.

Some of my Fords, who migrated from So. Illinois to Cape Girardeau, eventually ended up in Stoddard County, Missouri.

Looking forward to sharing with you.

I am researching the Ford side of our family. My grandmother was Mattie Martha Ford, born in 1890 in Illinois. She was the only girl in a family of five siblings: Raymond, George, Jake, ?, ?. She married Willis Leonard Reed, born in 1885 in Illinois. Once they moved to Missouri, they lived in Cape Girardeau until they died.

Yet another Chesley Ford

vagenealogy3 — 2009-10-14 20:39:27Z

Near the same age as the Chesley Ford WV > MO...is another Chesley Ford from my VA Ford family.

My Chesley B Ford, a few yrs older than the previously mentioned, Mine was born 1842 in Halifax Co VA to Bird and Louisa Ford; Chesley moved with his family to Alabama and became Sgt. Chesley B Ford in the 13th Alabama Inf. Co. I, he was present at the surrender at Appomatox, VA..then disappeared..LOL

I once had him confused with the other Chesley who was in Cape G. Missouri. I find a C B Ford in 1880 Kinney Co TX, but have no way of knowing if this is him. There is a curious record on ancestry.com. If anyone know more about this type of record, please advise.
"California State Roster 1909
Military and Government Sonoma Ca State home, pg 191, location- Eldridge.
Name: Chesley Ford"

I think it could be my Chesley as I know he was in the military.. But I do not find him anywhere in 1900 census. Thanks in advance.
