It has come to our attention that some folks, when answering a query, have been asking to be paid for research. We do recognize that it would be fair to be asked to be reimbursed for postage and photocopy costs. However, charging research fees for information pertaining to the original query would be questionable at best.

I am searching for any information on the family of Henry A. Warren.
He was born 9-15-1818 in Kentucky and died 10-30-1867 in Davidson
Co., Tennessee. He married Mary Ann Ogilvie on 6-2-1847. Their
children were Frances E. (Fannie)(she married a Turrentine); Charles
Henry (married Fannie Allison Karnes); Sarah J.; Ann B.; and James H.
Warren. Henry A. Warren owned property in northern Williamson Co.
and in Davidson Co., Tennessee. ** Benjamin Roland was born around
1843 and married Mary Nancy Tucker on 1-25-1869 in Williamson Co.
Both died and were buried in Davidson Co., Tennessee. It is possible
that Benjamin Roland's parents were Thomas Roland and Nancy Christley
Roland. Need help!

After searching for some time for my BISHOP ancestors, I have
recently acquired information that they may have lived in Williamson
County for a time. What I received follows: James M. BISHOP(b.AL
about 1841) married Sarah C. MODLIN (b. TN about 1844) daughter of
Berry and Mary POMERORY MODLIN from this county on April 13, 1867.
They had four children, William, James W., Walter Paige, and Alice,
the last two (perhaps all) born in Dyer County, TN. Any information
on these families would be very appreciated. I have nothing on the
BISHOP side and have only just received the information on the
MODLIN's so anything would help. I had not known Sarah's surname
before this. Walter was my grandfather.
