Donna (Hodge) Gregory

Hi Donna,

Thank you for your thank you! We share the same G. Grandfather, Hatcher-46, your 9th my 11th.

Donna, I wanted to say hello and that I find it quite interesting that we share a few connections ... my Everett line also goes through Thomas and Mary Lydia Bayless, my Tipton line also goes through William and Phoebe Moore, and my Garland line goes back to Gutridge as well. We very nearly share a birthday too, mine is the 19th. The Everett and Tipton families have deep roots in Blount county, but I was surprised to see the Garland connection. My grandmother didn't get the chance to know her father, he was murdered when she was 2 and I only ever met one of her Garland relatives beyond her siblings.

Donna, hello, and thank you. I don't know much about the Everett side of the family. I assume since she was in New Brunswick that her family were Loyalists, as were the Briggs and Cowperthwaites. I am interested in learning more. Charlotte Boyd

Hello my 7th cousin. Pleased to meet you

Hello Donna

Apparently you left me a thank you for creating 'Hester (Everett) Mugford', but I can't see it, but more importantly, I was wondering if you had a connection to her?

Good morning, Donna

Just a note to bring your attention to the children of Robert Pierce and Margaret Delilah Hodge. I have been able to find a great deal of sources to add to profiles. The females have been much easier to trace than the males. The commonality of the male names makes tracking very difficult but I will not give up. I have strong doubts about the Franklin Cheatham Pierce profile. I haven't been able to find anything to confirm his middle name. Hope all is good with you and yours, and have a look at those profiles when you have time. T Lacey

Hi Donna,

You posted a couple of thank you on my profile for my updates to the Everett profiles. Thank you back.

I'm on the "German" Everett line; I found a DNA link to a Johann Eberhardt from Prussia, but the paper trail does not line up. Do you know if you are one of these, or from the "English" one?

Have fun with WikiTree. I'm connected with several "cousins" I did not know I had, one just this weekend.

Donna, I deleted "unknown" from the Middle Name field for Everett-2601. Middle Name is not a required field so it should be left blank is the middle name is not known. Otherwise, it shows up on the weekly DB Error Report.

Thanks for the Thank You and all the best in your Family Search. Regards, Liz

Hi Donna,

I see that you just did the Pre-1700 Self-Certification. That's great! Participation in a project is strongly encouraged for those wishing to edit Pre-1700 profiles. Is there a particular time period, location, or topic you're interested in? Maybe you have some historically-significant ancestors? Check out our Volunteer Hub, which not only shows a list of projects seeking members, but has other helpful info as well.

Let me know if you need any help; we are glad to have you on board!

Thank you for allowing me to complete the Pierce merges to clear the duplicates. Now its time to research and source them.

Also thank you for the information on the Tipton family.

Hello again Donna. I sent you a number of Trusted List requests for ypur Pierce family profiles so that I may merge and do a post merge clean-up and we can get rid of the duplicate.

Thank you again for working with me on this.

Good morning Donna. I have approved all of our Pierce matches. If you would be so kind to approve them on your end, I will do the post merge clean-up and combine our information. I will also search for and add sources to improve up on our profiles for these ancestors.

Thank you
