Hello Sheri..I am a desendent of Evan Ragland through his son Stephan. I have quite abit of information on him, and I will be happy to share with you. Please email me and I'll give you what I have. Lori

What information are you wanting? My mother is a Ragland and I have all of her Ragland info from her through Evan, as far back as the 1200's. What specifically do you want?
Hope I can help.

Chris,
I just recently obtained a wealth of info from some others who are working on this same line. When I get done looking over that & working w/it I'll let you know. Thanks so much for the offer and for contacting me!
Sheri

Thank you Chris..From the best I can find my line is decended from Evan's son Stephen, My father was born in 1885 So I kink of skip a few generations there. His parents died when he was as small boy and he didn't talk about the family much. One of my older sisters did research but her books have been lost. My dad was born in Tx. and his in Ms I had gotten away from this for a while, but I have only one of my older sibling left so I need to speed thing up. I also know that there is a Thomas Ragland in Ralaugh NC in about 1812 that is also in my line. Sheri has been kind enough to send the history from Charles Raglands book but anything forward on Stephen and his son William would be helpfull. Thanks again.

Lori,
A cousin of ours, Diane, advised me of this book, which was reprinted--
"The Raglands: The History of A British-American Family" By Charles Ragland Jr. Volume I & II
I haven't found a copy yet of either volume yet, but wanted to pass the info on to you too.
You might also want to try www.genforum.com and search under the Ragland surname list.
Hope this helps!
Sheri

Sheri, Thank you again. I have seen the books I found them at the New York public Library. I found them on their website and although they don't send them out I was able to spend quiet alot of time reading them and copied alot from them. They have alot of material in their geneology departmen.

I am also a descendent of Evan Ragland, this is my line:

Barbara Denise Gray Garcia
Robert G. Gray & Sharon C. Courtney
Calvin Courtney & Anna Mae Young
Edward S. Young & Eva Mae Ragland
Stiles Augustus Ragland & Madora Adolicia Shorter
John Stiles Ragland & Charity Williams Cross
Robert Ragland & Elizabeth Stiles
William Ragland & Sarah Avent
John Ragland & Anne Beaufort
Evan Ragland & Susannah Pettus

You can order the books on the Ragland family from the University of Florida Bookstore, they are printed on demand. If you would like the contact information let me know and I will send it to you. Good luck and happy hunting!

Thank you for your response. While in NY I copied some information from the book On page 76 of the Stephen Ragland family it has William Ragland fourth son of Stephen and Mary Hudson married to Sarah Avent. It is from which of their sons my line decends from I need to clarify. Most say Thomas because he is the progenitor of the Victoria Tx Raglands and my family comes from Victoria but I have found that my grandfather William Mial Ragland was born in Ms. So I am in the process of looking for documents and sorting it out.

Denise,
Looks like we are 7th cousins once removed. How neat!
Yes, I would love the contact information for the book. It would be great to have a copy here at home for future reference. Please email the info to me at whoucisme@mindspring.com
Thanks!
