CCs Genealogy Today

I have been doing some major restructuring of my blogs.  For now, I am going to continue to post my genealogy research on this blog.  Eventually as I figure out how to move my previous research over, I plan on making a dedicated genealogy blog.  I feel this will allow for more organization for my readers.

A couple of weeks ago I decided to work on some places pages for my son's family history book.  I decided to start with Virginia.  I organized my thoughts by making a "Familiar Places" page for each location in Virginia that I wanted to focus on.  For now I just put interesting information for my son.  As I go through my family tree, and further back in history, I plan on expanding upon these pages to include more of the history that is relevant to each specific time period.  Go ahead and check them out:


I hope to include all of this information on one page for our family history book, using My Canvas.

Now to go get working on that.

Now I have my "Places in Virginia" page done:
I wanted to include Norfolk's seal and motto and a few other things but this is all I could fit onto one page.  Since it pertains to a living person, and only contains a brief, nuts and bolts type of history...I wanted to get them all onto one page.  Trying not to waste supplies while doing this book.

Now I need to work on Virginia's main page which will most likely expand as I go through the family tree.

Keep a look out for my upcoming blog dedicated to just genealogy.

I just got my page on Virginia done too!
Now to work on my places in Indiana.  To gather my thoughts I will be making some more, Familiar Places posts.

Familiar Places: Norfolk, Virginia

Norfolk, Virginia

The city of Norfolk is located in the common wealth of Virginia. (2)  It was formed as an independent city from Norfolk county in 1845. (1)  It is located at the mouth of the Chesapeake bay. (2)  

In 1619 the Virginia Colony's Governor, Sir George Yeardley incorporated Elizabeth Cittie, one of four jurisdictions.  In 1634 King Charles I reorganized these citties into shires.  Elizabeth Cittie then became Elizabeth City Shire. When the South Hampton Roads portion separated from the shire, Adam Thoroughgood (a large land holder) suggested it be renamed New Norfolk County, after his birthplace in England.  One year later it was split into Upper Norfolk and Lower Norfolk.  Part of what was Lower Norfolk is now the independent city of Norfolk.  It was incorporated in 1705 and George II granted it a royal charter as a borough (town or district).  All that was left from the Revolutionary War was the walls of Saint Paul's Episcopal Church. (2)  The town was gradually rebuilt.

Here is the Seal of Norfolk:

 Et Terra Et Mare Diitiae Tuae Crescas is meant to be translated as “Both by land and by sea thy riches (are)" (3)
"Motto: Crescas (Latin for, "Thou shalt grow.")" (2)

Familial Places: Portsmouth, Virginia

Portsmouth, Virginia, USA

Portsmouth is an independent city, located in the state of Virginia.  This means that it is not attached to any county government.  It was founded as an independent city in 1858.(1)  Portsmouth is part of the Hampton Roads Harbor.(2)  John Wood, a shipbuilder, noticed that Portsmouth would be a good shipbuilding location in 1620.  He petitioned King James I of England for a land grant.  Soon the area became a plantation community.  Colonel William Crawford officially founded Portsmouth as a town in 1752.  It was named after the town of Portsmouth in England. (2)

Portsmouth was the county seat of Norfolk County until 1963 when the new city of Chesapeake was formed.

This is where Portsmouth is within Virginia:

This is what the current city boundaries look like:

It appears the boundaries haven't changed since it's independence in 1858. (3)

Familial Places: Virginia

Virginia

Queen Elizabeth gave Sir Walter Raleigh permission to establish a colony in North America.  Queen Elizabeth was often called the Virgin Queen.  So in 1854 Sir Walter Raleigh established the first colony in North America and called it Virginia. (1)  This contributes to it's nickname "Old Dominion." (3)  This is the only nickname officially recognized.  (3)

In 1624 King James made Virginia a royal Colony. (1)  

When Virginia wrote their own constitution they established their self as a common wealth.  A common wealth states that they will be governed by the people and not any king or queen. (1)  Even though they call their self a common wealth the U.S. government treats Virginia as a state.  The first president, George WASHINGTON and four other presidents: Thomas JEFFERSON, James MADISON, James MONROE, and John TYLER all came from Virginia. (1)  This contributes to Virginia being called "Mother of Presidents" (3)  The wiki article sited claims 8 presidents were born there.

During the English Civil War, supporters of King Charles II of England were called Cavaliers.  This gave way to another unofficial nickname "The Cavalier State".  The state dance is a square dance called the Virginia reel.  In March 2015 Virginia named 2 songs their state song.  The official traditional state song is "Our Great Virginia" and the official popular state song is "Sweet Virginia Breeze".  The song emeritus is "Carry Me Back to Old Virginny" this was the official song from 1940-1997. (3)

The state's bird is a Cardinal and it's flower/tree is the dogwood.  It's slogan is Virginia is for Lovers. (3)

This is where Virginia is within the United States.  This picture accurately reflects where Virginia's boundaries are today, the State boundaries have been the same since 1863.

Virginia's state flag was officially adopted 01 February 1950 and this is what it looks like:
"Flag of Virginia" by Commonwealth of Virginia - It is from the xrmap flag collection, specifically "usa_virginia.svg" in flags-2.6-src.tar.bz2. The README file in that collection says of the SVG flags "We release them in the public domain". The blue color has been redone based on vexilla-mundi.. Licensed under Public Domain via Commons - https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Flag_of_Virginia.svg#/media/File:Flag_of_Virginia.svg
The seal of Virginia is located in the center of the flag.  Sic Semper Tyrannis means Thus always to tyrants.  This phrase is also the motto of the state.

Then he married Perdilla my 2nd great grandma's obituary says Perdilla's last name is LYNCH other ancestry member trees say that her last name is LUNSFORD or LUNDSFORD.  I don't know which one is accurate as I haven't found their marriage record yet.  Other member trees say they married 22 Jun 1879.

Some people think that from here he went on to marry a Sarah Ellen Baker.  This is not the case however.  If he did marry her than he is accounted for in 2 different 1900 Censuses. The one shown above with his children in Station Camp, Estill County, Kentucky and one with Sarah in Jonesville, Lee County, Virginia, shown below.

I really don't think this is the case.

I don't know what happened to him after 1920.  I can't seem to find a death record of any kind on him.  His last known residence was 1920 in Sturgeon, Lee County, Kentucky.  Does anybody have a resource for this area for deaths?  All help would be greatly appreciated.


Well that's all I currently have on him.  He is the end of his line on this chart.  Now I am going to see if I can find out more about his wife Predilla/Perdilla/Purdilla Lynch (last name as reported on my 2nd grandmother's obit).
