The Andreas Killian list ([email protected]) will no longer exists sometime in early 1997. Since Sept 1996 I have not been able to log into it and change the forward. That is because I did not pay the $18/year which caused them to change the password blocking further use by anyone who did not pay. I therefore cannot remove anyone from the old forward. To keep us from getting duplicates of all email, by people sending to both addresses, I need everyone to quickly subscribe to the new list. Anyone not subscribing by Wednesday morning, I will subscribe. I want us to stop using the old address on Wednesday. I want everyone to start writing to both the new & old address immediately. That is, put both addresses on the to-line of anything you want to address to us. Get yourself near the top of the list by being 1st to subscribe. To subscribe, send email to [email protected] and on the 1st line, type subscribe KILLIAN where your name is Sam X. Kent or Gerald R. Arfeld or whatever your name is. Please include your middle initial (or if you go by your middle name, then include your 1st initial). Thanks. -- James W.

Any help is appreciated. > > Good luck, Lorena Lorena, we Andreas Killians (of old Lincoln Co NC) are moving from a pseudo list to a true list starting today, so I was looking thru old email for people that had written wanting to be subscribed and I found your letter. I do not recall answering it. Perhaps someone on the pseudo list (nn110708) answered privately. I am not sure what you mean by orgins. Do you mean Germany vs. Ireland? If so, I will defend that we came from the German countries in 1732 on the ship Adventure since the signature on the will of Andreas looks like his signature on the passenger list. If you mean the town, then I can say that Geo. W. Killian has a letter from the archives in Konigsberg that states the names of the 3 children of Andreas and they are girls & so Andreas is not the son of Johnannes Philip Wolfgang Kilian. Besides Konigsberg is Catholic territory not not the area from which the immigrants came. We do not know the town that Andreas came from, tho there is at least one good prospect in the IGI. I have stated this in my article on Andreas in Catawba County Heritage. I will assume you have read that. If you want more info, write us. Excuse any misspellings above. If anyone wants to add to this note, please post a copy to Lorena, and the pseudo & true list. Lorena, if you descend from Killian, then please join our list. You might also tell of our email address and web site in your book? http://www.genealogy.org/~green/Killian.html [email protected] The pseudo list (nn110708) will be gone in a few months, so there is no need to mention it. Tell us more of your book. By Wednesday morn, I plan to have us completely moved to the new list. Perhaps then you might want to discuss with the list the "conflict in records, both past and present" that you are referring to. You have my curiousity up. -- James W.

It is close to the way Larry Stephens provided it. I do hope all will read it carefully as to how to use the listserver. However in spite of what the welcome says about me running a "tight ship" as far as what is posted, I have never felt inclined to fuss about what was posted to one of my lists. If you all have been writing the server for reviews, I am sure that you noticed that it is not storing your name after your address. As Harold Helm of the Ragsdale list told me, there seems to be only one way to get parenthetical info after your name and that is for me (the owner to unsub you & sub you with the desired info in parentheses. As a result, you will be getting a message tonight that you have been unsubed & then another copy of the welcome message. So, I need some info to put in Parentheses. Here are the current subscribers: [email protected] [email protected] [email protected] (Richard Pedigo) [email protected] [email protected] (Joan Pedigo) [email protected] (Samuel D. Kent) The names in parentheses were obtained by fingering. Here is the parenthetical info from the old list: [email protected] (James W.

Sue Cook, I have 2 letters from you, but doubt I know your city. Tomorrow, after I fix the list tonight, I hope you all will post your Killian lineages or Killian query. -- James W.

I talked to Jo-Ann Pedigo yesterday, and recommended she get on the list. I think she knew before though. She is a descendant of Leonard Killian, and I'm send her info. For everyone elses info, I have George Killians data base now, and am going through it. Just ask if ya have in questions, I'll send ya a answer.

The accs.net is having difficulties with their system and I can not always get on. Then the holli.com line is usually busy "ALL" the time, so when I get on there, I just get lucky. About myself....I am Jo-Ann (with a capitol A) Pedigo (Killion). My father is Stephen Killion, b. Aug 19, 1910 in Oden, In and his father (my grandfather) is John N. Killion b. Nov. 26, 1846 in Daviess County....he was married to the one you all have down as "Maggie"???? On the 1910 (Thirteenth census of the United States) he is listed as head of hold, with a wife by the name of Mary, and four children...(1)Margarite being 16 and single, (2)McKinley being 15 and single, (3) Halsie being 9 and single, and (4) Thalma being 5 and single. This census was taken on April 18, 1910...therefore my grandmother was with child...my dad, born August 19,= 1910. Now about those names =DC (1)Margarite....did not get to know her. (2)McKinley.....Named David McKinley married Myrtle E. Shepherd, Marguerite Jennings, then Anetta ? He had children...my sister has this information. (3)Halsie.......She was my dad's favorite sister and visited many times, even spending the weekends with my parents, then later with us. She changed her name, whether leagally or not, to Alice Rose Killion, she married Marshall Downton, they had one son - John Marshall Downton...she then later married William J. Kelly who was the president of the AFLCIO in Pittsburgh, PA....they had no children. She was born on August 2, 1899 and swore she was born in 1900, but her birth records say 1899. She was a very prim, proper and proud lady. I miss her much. She died on March 19, 1986. (4)Thelma Cordelia...only know that she was born Aug 27, 1904 in Daviess Co. and died in 1939. (5)Stephen....my dad....His birth records name him Stephen Wiley Killion born on August 19, 1910....but he grew up thinking his name was Stephen Edgar Killion born on August 18, 1910....Aunt Alcie said it was very late in the night (early hours of the morning) when grandpa delivered him, and that is probly why they celebrated on the 18th. He married Josephine Elizabeth Warren on March 21, 1930 and they had four children...me being the youngest (brat) =DC He died on Sept. 13, 1989. John N. Killion became a doctor in 1899, I have a copy of his certificates= (2). My husband is Richard Pedigo and they think they are from France....we are still working on his roots. Well if there is anymore information you'd like, just ask and I will help out.

Everyone, If you have a big gedcom then let's use ftp & I will provide an anonymous ftp site. Currently I have 2 anonymous ftp sites at ftp.genealogy.org then are: /pub/genealogy/surnames/RAGSDALE and /pub/genealogy/surnames/MARJORIBANKS Each has an incoming subdirectory. If you want it shared with the world, let me know & I will move it up. If you want it changed to web pages (using ged2html), let me know & I will put it on the web. If you are talking about a lineage, do not make it a file attachment. Just paste it into a letter & email it to all on the list. I think I will just let the late joiners of this list write the listserver for the posts that we have been making to the new list. Gerald, did you ask Geo. about puting his gedcom on the web or making it available to all? Did he charge you money? -- James W.

Thanks again. Susan I am sending this to the list. I cannot tell if you are subscribed still or not, since it takes a few minutes or hours to get a reply from the server sometimes, tho judging by our current correspondance, the server must be caught up & filling orders immediately. Thanks for the initial & snail address & phone. Your Killian lineage would also be nice to have. I am sure those on the list present & future will write you if they have something. We look forward to your return. You will find me on AOL till about the 28th of Nov. -- James W.

You can now unsub yourself from the CIS address, or if you can't let me know. I can. I have not been getting any bounces, so assume all email is doing fine.

Gerald, I started to downloading IRC and stoped. Seemed it was taking up too much room. I can talk. There are also chat rooms on the internet. I do not know where. I could ask or maybe someone knows? I cannot talk from Bigbird, but have 3 other accounts from which I can talk. Who all has a talk daemon besides me? I think I can ytalk from Tallahassee Freenet. That is a talk for groups. There are chat rooms at AOL which I am on until about 28 Nov. The feast is in honor of St. Kilian rather than our family, isn't it? I do not find any St. Kilian in my Ency.Britanica. -- James W.

Don't know if you can talke "privately" with a group or not. I have found POWWOW to be a good place for "conferences" because you can block evevyone else out. However, you can only get 7 screens at the same time up. So, if there were more than 7 of us, it would not work. It is instant chat, you can see the others typing there messages - as they are typing it. It also has voice and you can talk to another person. If interested, it's a free download, at http://www.tribal.com You also have to have an unzip program to unzip it, and it is availabe at that site too. I have had POWWOW for several months now, and like it real well. If you decide to use IRC, let me know about a day ahead of time, so I can get one of my boys to show me how to use it, as I always go to parentsplace.com and POWWOW.

But there are also several new IRC Nets available, I was thinking of using one of the smaller ones, less traffic. A private channel can be set up, making it invite only, and will be able to control who and what goes on. As long as we stay away from UnderNet and EFNet, we shouldn't have any problem. But also, if not many of you use IRC, be alot tougher to set up, though I could probable just e-mail anyone interested a copy of mIRC that would be configured as much as possible.

I don't have Eudora and file attachments are imbedded in with the message and I do not know where to cut the attachment out & even if I did, I do not have the software to uncompress it. You may ftp it to one of my anonymous ftp sites or tell me the site to get it from by ftp. Let me know if you want the host & path to my anonymous ftp site. BTW, everyone read in the welcome message where Stephens said that we are not to send file attachments to the list. I do not know why he said that other than that some cannot read file attachments, but suppose he does not want such big files in our archives on his machine, taking up space. He said his machine ran out of space last night and some lists were lost. PowWow sounds interesting because it lets me use my mic which I have never used. I will probably need guidance. I have pkunzip to unzip PowWow if that is the unzip program that is required. I can put it on my ftp site if anyone needs it. -- James W.

Your address in your header must match your address in the review. Evidently it is already different. When I see you add yourself on AOL, I will remove your gnn subscription. All bounces go to Larry Stephens from all the 100s of lists that he has for me & others. As to web pages, I have made some changes. I hope you all like them. I will begin to work on the lineages file next and start looking for more subscribers. You all can help by doing that for me. Just send a cc to the list so we all know what has been done and don't repeat efforts. If you all visit, CIS, AOL, Prodigy, Freenets, Roots-L surname list & post on lists announcing us, then I will have time to work on the web pages. This is only one of many lists that I have. We might also get to work on the gathering of gedcoms. I think Kent was going to scan newsletters & maybe the signature of Andreas Kilian. Gerald, you said you might put up an abbreviated gedcom. I guess you mean, make PAF make a gedcom of the 1st 4 generations or 6 down from Andreas then turn that to web pages with ged2html? I don't like where Geo. put the church, hospital, cemetery, etc. in the last field where country goes. Is that how his data still is? Yet, he is doing the input. I think he will make corrections to his database (but not move cemetery to field 1). Is that your plan -- to send him corrections then get a new database? I can't see one having to make the same corrections everytime one gets a new database from Geo. Except I might remove Konigsburg from being Andreas' birthplace and remove Andreas' parents' link to Andreas if Geo. can't be convenced. I wish I could find my copy of the letter Geo. gave me that he received from Konigsburg that disproved Andreas' connection to said town & people. Anyone could write Konigsburg and ask for the children of Johannes Philip Wolfgang Kilian. BTW, you know Andreas spelled it with one l as is still done in Germany. As to Mathias & Henrich being Andreas' brothers, there is nothing to substantiate that nor did Andreas name kids Matthew or Henry. I do not think Andreas had brother come to America, let alone on the same ship. Now have I answered everything? Check out the web pages.

Yes, I wish he would import the data or at least that is what I'd do, but I guess some people put in sloppy info, yet he could run PAF's checking program to check for bad links & unusual or impossible data and get the data straight by snailing the sender about the anomolies & getting a revised gedcom from the sender. He is a Mormon, but I don't think he uses thetheir program to its fullest. I guess "beggers (like me) can be choosers". BTW, I am nominally a Baptist. You all'll have to pray for me. :) I published the descendants of my Gt.Grandfather Killian in Catawba Co. Heritage in about 9 articles then got the reunion to buy Geo. a book hoping he'd pull all the Killian data out of the book. I do not think he did. I did not check his PAF data to see if he typed it in correctly. I guess I have too much faith. :) or am too lazy.

The header of the letter shows you wrote us. Did none of us answer? Your letter was addressed: To: [email protected] Date: Tue, 4 Oct 1994 22:30:37 PST Subject: Andreas Killian Family in NC From: [email protected] (Lorena S Eaker) This time you wrote Green@Bigbird and that is me. I would rather you write to us than to me. Our new address is [email protected] The reason, is that I never get around to answering all my email. I don't even finish reading it all. Besides you ask about Leonard and the only documentation (primary source info) I have on him is I've seen his tombstone at St. Paul's. I am not sure I have even photographed his stone, so don't have any documentation. If I had a photo of the stone, I'd call that documentation & pretty primary. Some might say that a stone is not a primary source but I think it is contemporary enough to the event to be called primary. I have Wilfong's book of transcriptions of the cemetery. I guess that is secondary. Yes, I wish we had Bibles for all. I don't have any Bibles until I get down to Sidney Killian my gt. grandfather. He was son of Elijah, son of Joseph, son of Sam, son of Andreas. So I have just named 4 Bibles in my direct line that are lost. So write us. Some of us descend from Leonard & will be more likely to have Leonard's stuff than me. I am just Leonard's nephew (w/lots of greats). You do not have to be subscribed to write us. Just tell us you are not subed when you write & then the responder can address the letter to you with a cc to us. At least that's my advice. > Yes I > am in agreement that Andreas actually was German, or at least German > Speaking and definitely not from Ireland. I think all the Killian place names are in Germany -- none in Alsace, Lorraine, Switz., Austria, or Poland, so I'd think we are from within the bounds of modern Germany. Now that I think of it, that is not fair. I checked the CIA gazeteer from WWII of E. & W. Germany. I am not sure it included Prussia (which is in part in Poland) or Austria nor Switzerland and maybe not A-L. Well we agree, "not Ireland". > I am not of Killian descent, > at least not that I know of.

Here it is. You can see it more completely now on the web. I am not saying it is the best. If someone will take over for me, then they can pick the format. Anyone can get free web pages at www.geocities.com, if your provider does not provide space.

It has lots of stuff we need to talk about. I think I have seen "Rhenish,Palatinate, Germany" in Geo.W. Killian's data. Is that where it came from? PAF limits one to 16 characters per field, so if one wants to enter the modern state of Rhineland-Palatinate, I can see people using the town & county field, but don't like that. I am so full of opinions. How about someone else tell us about Rhineland, Palatinate and merging & spliting old states into new states. That looks like the situation to me, but someone else should give a few opinions or state the facts. I expect everyone one of you to have looked at modern map of Germany in Hammond's Atlas & know the state names. I do not want people to think that anyone things that Rheinish is a place in Paltinate. My 2 cents worth is that it is unwise to refer to any modern state or old division without basis. It is my opinion that it is unwise to name things "Palintines to America" or "the Palintine Immigrant" because Americans are not looking at maps or thinking or looking at S&H or Rupp. If every American genealogist & non-genealogist knew where Pfalz was & where Rheinish-Pfalz is now & what Rupp meant, then there'd be no problem with the word. Lancashire is called a county Palatine. Can someone explain that? I think Germany should probably be "(Germany?). When we get Germans online with us, and they are not familiar with PAF, they will think us idiots if we put "Rhenish,Palatinate,Germany", don't you all think? I'd like to see us standardize the entry for Andreas. I think Leah is right & I am wrong on my dates for Andreas. Leah says abt 1702. Andreas came to America in 1732 aged 30. That does not mean he was born in 1702, but rather "abt 1702". Do you want me to use c, c., ca., or abt? Bk understands abt & cir PAF only understands abt. Perhaps both are too long and c would be best. The death date I put for Andreas is his will's date & its probate date. One's death is closer to probate date. People can write wills many years prior to death. Thus I like Leah's c.1788 or maybe you prefer bef Jan 1788 since the will was probated in Jan 1788 or maybe we should forget "d." & just say "prob.Jan.1788". Opinions? Leah, for Andreas' wife you wrote: m.Mary (KILLIAN) What does "(KILLIAN)" means? Is that just an echo of her husband's surname -- her married name? Leonard is supposed to be from a wife earlier than "Mary (CLINE?)". Does George have all Andreas' kids linked from the same mother?! It is thought by J. Yates Killian that Leonard was born 1721 (paragraph 2 of Geo.'s publication of Yates' book). Quoting from Neal Wilfong's Tombstone Inscriptions of the Old St. Paul's Church Cem.", stone 341: HEIR.RUHET. IN.GOTT.LEONH ARD.KIL-LIAN.GE BOHREN.DEN 1.5 TEN.MAY.1723 STARB.DEN.6 TEN JUNIUS.1795.SEIN ALTER.73 JAHR. 1.MONATH. UND 6 TAG. That is "." for "." & carriage return for carriage return, the same as published. Did I type it right? Derick online here, can tell us how to order Wilfong's book. I saw it on sale still in June 1996 in Catawba Co. I do not know if the above is perfect with the stone. You all with photos, tell us. You all that know, tell us why the "."s are where they are and about the spelling & meaning of all the words & suffixes. I am very jealous of you Leonardites. My Samuel is far younger & has no stone! :-( Leonard was wealthier than the other children. Is that because of primogeniture? Or did he not lose all the land that Andreas lost before the Indians forced them off Killian's Creek (in present Lincoln Co)? What is the German naming pattern? Should Andreas's father be Leonard or is Leonard's mom's father Leonard? If we call Andreas, Andreas, then should we call Leonard, Leonhard? Is that correct modern German spelling? Is the stone cutter not fully literate or is this a dialectical spelling. (My spelling shows I am not fully litterate.) Is everything on the stone spelled in modern German? I hear PA German is a little different than modern German? How & why? Regional or not codified by a dictionary till later? Leah, let me know about "(KILLIAN)" in your lineage. If it is her married name, then I will change it to "_____". OK? Everyone, I would like to put your lineage on the web from the Kilian immigrant to yourself. If you fear banks use your birthdate or mother's maiden name for identifying you, then perhaps you will want to withold that part of your line. The incompetance of the business world is one of my peeves. I think they should use thumb prints or pen numbers or something else. Now let's hear some public discussion.

The (Killian) does refer to her married name, not maiden name. I have meant to remove such notations from my database, but just haven't gotten around to it yet. Listing Mary as the mother of Leonard is a mistake on my part. I wasn't paying attention when I was putting the information in. The "Rhenish, Palatinate, Germany" was from George W. Killian's information. What would be a more correct way of putting it? I really don't know. One more question. Does anyone have any information on Elizabeth Fulbright, wife of Mathias?

I was thinking your address started bouncing is why you were not in the list when I disbaned it. I was pleased to find you in the Roots-L surname list. Someone asked how to get their surnames in the surname list and someone else asked how to change the entries in said Roots-L surname list. Can you tell the group (everyone) how. I think we all ought to have Killian in the list. I am thinking of asking Karen to put the list in the surname list also. Welcome: [email protected] (Sharon L.

I don't even like using > Germany in that time frame since it didn't even excist then. Yeah, I have heard that. What was there? Holy Roman Empire? Looking at the historical maps in the back of Hammond's atlas, H-24 Europe in 1559 Holy Roman Empire covers Netherland (which includes what is now Belgium & Luxemburg, Franche Comte, Savoy, Papal States, Swiss Confed., Austria, and Bohemia and Moravia, Silesia but not Slovakia nor Rep. of Venice. H-25 Europe in 1648 at Peace of Westphalia The word Holy is omitted. The Empire includes same as above except Switz.,Savoy,D.of Milan, and other Italian states down to the Papal States. H-26 Europe in 1713-1714 at Treaties of Utrecht & Rastatt Called merely the Empire, it includes the above except: the Netherlands gets free (Belgium & Lux. remain in the Empire), Alsace is lost to France or most of it is. A part of Lorraine remains in the Empire & the rest falls to France. I guess that is the map (situation Andreas knew). H-27 Europe in 1763 Holy Roman Empire Includes all of the above except all of Alsace & Lorraine are lost to France. So even with all the losses, Germany was still far larger than it is today since it had Belgium, Lux., Austria, most of the Polish coast, Silesia (which is now the Oder valley of SE Poland, Tyrol which is partially in Italy & partly in Austria, a corner of Yugoslava. I guess WWI & WWII make sense to Germany considering their loses. If you all cannot visualize the bounds of these places, then IMHO, you need an atlas or to look at the one you have. I recommend a big Hammond atlas. It may cost $50. Make sure it has historical maps of the world in the back, not just historical maps of the US. What do others think of my suggestion or other atlases? Now you all should get on my case & tell me to read up on the Holy Roman Empire in Britannica. I understand it was weak. I realize I am looking at lines on a map and need to understand how real or important the lines were. > What I could use is a set of historical maps of central Europe. > I have other parts of mylines from there also, and it'll help. I think I heard that Palatines to America has a list on the internet. Charles Hall, founder wrote genealogical atlases of each German speaking country's states. I sure would like to link to some nice maps. > About, before or after, what ever we know for sure. Alot depends > on our own personal system for keeping track of things. I was not trying to suggst what you all put in your genealogical programs. I was just considering how I will change them when I edit what you all send for the file (web page) of lineages of the subscribers (which now has 3 entries (3 subscribers' lines). > I think I'm gonna limit myself to the government census dates, and > then just add names to me.

He is subscribed but has said naught. He lives in Catawba Co. & is editor of the Geneal. Soc. Newsletter I think. I met him at the Cline Reunion in Catawba Co in June.

Here's my Killian line as far as I know it; all these folks are from Frederick County, MD: Philip Killian, 1814-1882, m. Anna Eliza Hooper in 1839. According to a census record, Philip's father was supposedly born in Prussia. He may be the son of Philip Killian and Elizabeth Dertzbaugh (m 1808), but I don't have any real supporting evidence yet. Philip and Anna had nine children, amongst whom was John Edward Killian, 1844-1914. John married Lucy Grosh, the widow of Herman F. Debring, around 1877. Their daughter, Lucy Emma Virginia Killian, 1878-1962, was my great-grandmother; she married James Hamner Davis around 1907. --slc -------------------------------------------------------------------- Sharon L.

Gerald Schmidt is descended from Wilhelm Hager who's daughter Barbara married Samuel. Problem is I know of no one in Perry Co on the internet who is related in anyway. Maybe I can find someone soon. Perry County Historical Society has been very helpful to me. They are responsible for me getting as far as fast as I have. All by getting me in contact with other related researchers. We let the related counties know about us, how to get a hold of us, and share information. Just an idea.
