Thanks for the reply and the info of Martha's family! I believe my Kite tree is public so you can see the little bit of info I've been able to put together so far.

But you are welcome to contact me here or by email savvytangerine (at) aol.com

And hello family member - John Daniel is my great great great grandfather.

Re: Looking for John Daniel Kite's wife

celticwanderer52 — 2012-01-08 02:07:43Z

Hi.
John's wife was Martha S Grant, b: 29 Mar 1860 in McNairy Co, TN. They were married 23 Jul 1876 in Erath Co, TX.
She died 28 Jan 1921 in Barksdale, Edwards Co, TX. She is buried in the Barksdale Cemetery.
Her parents are very likely Austin and Amanda Grant. His name has been spelled Austin and Auston in the 1850 and 1860 censuses for McNairy Co, TN. I haven't found anything else about him. Amanda was his second wife; I believe her maiden name was Smith, but have not been able to confirm that.
John was my great-grandfather.
Would like to compare notes on others in the Kite family.

Gertrude Augusta Kite, Bath, UK

janicelynn42 — 2011-12-08 12:25:28Z

I just thought I would post a note in case anyone is directly related to Gertrude Augusta Kite (B: 26 Apr 1915, D: 25 May 2001, Bath (Reg. Jan 2002)). There is a TV series currently showing on BBC in UK called Heir Hunters and they show the UK Bona Vacantia list that shows deceased individuals who left NO Will. A recent programme highlighted Gertrude Augusta Kite but I can't find a link to me!

Good luck!

KiteLand may be Bulls Gap (Hawkins County, Rogersville, TN) areas. There is a Kite cemetary and numerous streets named after Kites. A great resource there is historian Donahue Bible (who grandmother married a Kite). He lives in Mohawk, TN.

The TN Kite family centers around Hawkins and Greene counties. Hawkins county has a wonderful geneology building where the volunteers will find birth, marriage, death and contract records for you. My husband and I spend 2 days there just copying records, which we are in the process of uploading to the ancestry.com site. They were a great resource of information.

My name is Jamee Kite. I am originally from Kansas which is where my father Ronald Eugene Kite and grandfather Alva J Kite live.
The only thing I know is that my grandfather is from Tennessee and at some point in time he lived in Oklahoma. I know they have a huge family reunion every year in a place my father calls KiteLand Tennesse but I cant seem to find anything on the internet about it. From what I understand the original homestead of my grandfather still stands on the property. I would like to know more about my family if anyone can link my family to yours let me know.

John Daniel Kite: Birth 23 Sep 1850 in Fayette, Georgia, United States
Death 1899 in Texas, United States
Son of George Caswell & Harriet Kite

Is married to a woman I just can't piece together. For some reason she is listed various different ways on ancestry trees, but I can't push back further with any of them to uncover her parents.

MARTHA S. MINNIE GRANT HANCOCK / Minnie Grant / M. S. Kite or any variation:
Birth Mar 1860 in Tennessee
Death in Texas, United States

Thanks in advance for any assistance!

Re: Saphronia Kite/Kight married to Anthony Saxon

Hi,
America "Meckie" Saxon-Mize was my 3xgreat grandmother. I too have reached a dead end with Saphronia Kite/Kight. I emailed Martin (Marvin? It's been a while) Kite who compiles an extensive family tree on the Georgia Kites and he says she's not one of theirs. With so much data about her birth place and date, why has she got no parents? I have wondered if she was an orphan or an indentured servant or a native or what. If anything else about her people turns up, I'd be interested. Thanks,

You could guess what country the Kights are from. If you are related to a James, John, William, Thomas that is the first name of the Kight family I have been finding. My great grand father was John Kight, my grandfather was Ramey OThomas Kight, my father and his brothers were James Elmer, James William, and Jimmy Lee Kight every one of them had a james, john and william.

I saw this on ancestry.com. My father was Ula Charles Kite, son of Jacob N. Kite and Phebe Katherine Casteel Kite. I have heard years ago that Grandmother Phebe would go visit a relative named Lydia in the Rogersville/Bulls Gap area. I have no information about Grandfather Jacob's family, at all. At his death in 1920 he resided in Greene County, TN and he and Phebe are buried at Cross Anchor, TN in Mt. Pleasant Church Cemetery.

Samuel Kite died in Cambridge, NZ on 19/04/1925 & Sarah on 24/01/1892 also in Cambridge. Their daughter Alice was born in 1872, possibly in Andover, Hampshire.
She married Thomas Dagg in Cambridge NZ on 12/10/1896 and their daughter was my grandmother.
Does this information relate to your tree?
If so, how are you related to Samuel & Sarah?

Keight/Kite/Kyte - In England Shrewsbury - Military History

leeannetanner1 — 2010-11-19 12:50:19Z

Dear All

Is there anyone out there that knows anything about the 32nd of Foot through the Napoleonic wars (primarly the penisular wars)

I found my Keight/Kite/Kyte ancestors through the local census listings at Shrewsbury (Ref P172/V/2/3) which stated that Edward Kite & Sarah Kites eldest son was put into the Royal Military Asylum in Chelsea 20th Jun 1814. and apprenticed back out to his mother 4th Aug 1818.

I have since been to the National Archives and found the original admissions/discharge registers (WO143/17 & WO143/20) which tell me his father also Edward Kyte/Kite was a private in the 32nd of Foot.

Which I then have looked for muster quartely pay registers which told me that Edward Kite snr died around Jul 1812 of his wounds, I've therefore looked up to see what that regiment was involved in, and found it was involved in the battle of Salamanca.

So my question to any military historians/enthusiasts is does anyone know what part of England they went from when going to Spain/Portugal, would they have gone from Plymouth (because of their association with Cornwall), or would they have gone from Kent, or if anyone knows if Shropshire had any links to the regiment? or if anyone knows of any more records that could give me more information.

I have yet to return to the National Archives to look that previous years pay records as I ran out of time (so was only able to look through the 1st Batt's records from 1811-1812 WO12/4737 & 4738) but I believe he may have come from the 2nd battalion into the 1st battalion in around end of 1811, as on one of the records it states "co, from 2 batt"

Any suggestions anyone could give would be greatfully received.

Kind Regards

Leeann

Re: information on James Perry Kite's parents

Chris_Kite — 2010-09-21 15:29:50Z

See 1930 census in Kansas that says his father was born in OH and his mother in TN. It lists his wife Malussa and their son James A. I did not see a 1900 census with him, but did find a James E Kite in TN with parents born in TN.

If the 1930 census is referring to a Kite father (assume by adoption), then the Philip Kite line through his son Michael is one possibility of lines that went from VA to OH.

information on James Perry Kite's parents

kaklicorice — 2010-08-17 16:59:03Z

My great-grandfather, James Perry Kite, was born circa 1892 in Tennessee and was adopted. He married a Melissa(or possibly Malussa) Edwards. He died in the 1950's in southeastern PA, but all of his records that were kept in the graveyard/funeral home were destroyed.

Windle Kite research http://chriswkite.blogspot.com/

Chris_Kite — 2010-07-03 02:28:45Z

See http://chriswkite.blogspot.com/ for Windle Kite research

Windle Kite is on the 1734 tax list in Philadelphia County. He seems to be the John Windle Kite who settled in the Shenandoah Valley in the 1740's. Wendel Keit or Windlegite or Geit or other variations are spellings of his name. Geit is a surname noted by Rev Paul Henkel for John Windle's grandson Martin. Rev Henkel is also my ancestor. As he was well educated in German, I expect that Geit to be more authentic. It may relate to goat herding.

Wendelin is the patron saint of country people and herdsmen and is still venerated in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. The town of St. Wendel seems to be an excellent candidate for the area from where a Wendel Geit would come. It is close to towns that Kite relatives came from - such as Staudernheim for the Louderback family who came in 1739 on the ship Samuel. Preliminary DNA evidence shows a potential link to a family line in the Luxembourg area nearby.

Unfortunately, I have not found much new information that would be of interest to most decedents of John Wendle Kite in several years, although I have made great inroads in the post 1890 cousins, thanks to Tim Kight and his family.

I will note that one of the leading scorers on the Dutch World Cup football (soccer) team is Dirk Kuyt - which is pronounced more like "Cult", but could be a Dutch source for Kite ... or Coit which is on some of the 18th Century documents.

Descendends (& interested researchers) of the Martin or Henderson Kite family (from Tennessee) are invited to join us as we meet on Monday, June 28, 2010 in Bulls Gap, TN to find out more about our family and ancestry.

We are meeting with a local historian who is knowledgeable about the Kites in the area and has written about much of the area's history during the 1800's. He was also responsible for obtaining headstones from the government for previously unmarked Kite graves of those who'd fought during the Civil War.

If you'd like to join us, please let me know by contacting me at texaswebweaver@hotmail.com

We're meeting Monday morning at 9:30 am and will spend the day together traveling in about a 60 mile area. Come comfortable and with good walking shoes!:)

Any Kites who are interested in attending are invited. It will be casual, 1 day. Just let me know if interested and I can forward meeting place and time.
