LUDDSHAR> Donald, to finish my frame of mind. The Taylors in Liepsic would be LUDDSHAR> my grandparents. George Washington Taylor and Etta Huber. .Bones> Hi Shar LUDDSHAR> Bonnie, i was talking to Donald before my computer froze and had to reboot. .Bones> me too... mine did the same thing LUDDSHAR> I was telling him that I can't find anything on my Taylor, Huber and Yarger. LUDDSHAR> of Putnam County, Ohio LUDDSHAR> Bonnie: So, have you found anything interesting about your family research lately? .Bones> actually with respect to the Ladd side it has been a relatively calm summer LUDDSHAR> I found lots on Ludd's family. .Bones> I was able to find articles around the death of a great uncle of mine.. Robert Ladd. I think that was my grandest find this summer .Donald> I hope I don't read about the death of Robert LADD for another 20 years.... .Donald> That is my brother LUDDSHAR> I didn't think I would find anything on his family: The Bastian/Bastien and the Verboncouer. .Bones> I am trying to see what I can learn about Paul Ladd.. son of Nathaniel Ladd & Mary Mercy Hall .Donald> There are 2 Robert LADDs in Bellevue OH and people get thm mixed also .Donald> I hAve nothing on this Paul either .Bones> oh... the Robert Ladd I am referring to was born in Minnesota.. died in Roseau Cty in 1916 in a hunting accident .Bones> Paul was my 4th ggrandfather.. married to Martha Folsom.. I believe he and his brother Dudley Ladd were twins .Bones> that sounds great Shar.. LUDDSHAR> Yes. They are French Canadians. .Bones> Donald I would love to hook up with this Dean you mentioned.. .Bones> what branch of the New England Ladd's does he belong to?> .Donald> DeanL12969@aol.com .Bones> thanks! .Bones> I wish we would have had more of the family join us tonight .Donald> I thought they had enough advance notice .Donald> Bernice, in Sunny SC sent her appologies .Bones> yes I thought so too... I see two people on my buddy list that are part of the New England Ladd's.. could be having trouble getting on LUDDSHAR> I thought there was enought advance notice .Bones> yes.. I saw it in the Digest over the weekend.. and last week .Bones> my cousin Mary is having difficulty getting into Delphi.. says she is getting a "server busy" message LUDDSHAR> So do I .Bones> I understand Shar.. unfortunately not alot going on. Must be having a very busy night on Delphi ** MARYELADD just joined "Ladd Genealogy" (4 members now) ** .Donald> I Mary E.LADD your cousin? Bonnie. .Bones> Yes she is Donald.. my first cousin... Hey Mary you made it! :-) LUDDSHAR> Hi Mary MARYELADD> Well hello Donald. Bonnie made it once again. .Donald> I was just about to say that Mary E. was on line, Hello Mary! .Bones> got her to come join our party <GRIN> Glad you did Mary .Bones> her dad and my dad are brothers .Donald> Mary are you going to help us with the David LADD of Maine question? MARYELADD> I'm glad I was able too. I didn't realize there was a chat tonight. I am so out of sorts lately with the days. .Donald> or are we all four going to be dummies on this one? MARYELADD> What is the question? David of Maine? .Bones> Donald who was David's father? or... do you have a birth date for him LUDDSHAR> Dummie #1 .Bones> I will say Dummy 2 here MARYELADD> Hi Luddshar. LUDDSHAR> Hello Mary .Donald> then I make Dummy 3 sounds like a bridge game .Bones> yes it does... LOL .Bones> do we have a father's name or birthdate? .Donald> I don't know how to play that either MARYELADD> Was trying to get organized like Bonnie suggested. Haven't gotten very far. LUDDSHAR> I don't think I will ever get organized. LUDDSHAR> I'm trying to though. .Donald> Join the club! Organize what is that? MARYELADD> Yes, getting organized is a big project in itself. LUDDSHAR> I don't know, been so long. LUDDSHAR> Can't keep up. .Donald> Bonnie are you showing off? saying that you are organized! .Bones> no... not at all LOL .Donald> of the 4 of us do we each have the Warren LADD book! .Bones> I have a copy here..but it isn't mine .Donald> mine is actually a microfilm copy and stays at the local LDSFHC in Lebanon MARYELADD> I don't have a copy with me. My sister bought the book and it is with her. LUDDSHAR> No .Donald> so I can't refer to it very readily .Donald> I goofed when I [hand] copied it I didn't do the #s on the any 'cept the Southern LADDs LUDDSHAR> I have a copy of what is on the LDG. I might be able to find it. .Donald> (the #s on them other than the Southern LADDS) is what i was trying to say .Donald> The information on THE ldg IS VERY SPARCE IN REGARD TO THE wARREN ladd BOOK LUDDSHAR> I know it isn't complete or even close. .Donald> Caps! Donald, Caps! MARYELADD> I didn't catch on with the numbers at first either. Live and learn. I am catching on slowly. Everyone seems to have a different system. .Donald> as the book gets published off and on by the Genealogy Pub Co it may still be under copyright .Donald> Whenever I post I use the #s that were assigned by Warren LADD that way I know wich William or Thomas or Amos that I am referring to. MARYELADD> How does David of Maine come in on the Daniel of MA line? .Donald> Thomas Mifflin LADD's book uses a whole different set of #s for the same people WHY? beats me! .Donald> Diane the person interested in David doesn't know .Donald> Davids parents .Donald> so that is her "brick wall" MARYELADD> Any system to help tell one Daniel from the other is a great help. .Donald> it works until about 1875 or so then there are no numbers on anyone MARYELADD> On one of my mother's lines, I recieved info from someone that used a letter also to distinguish the different generations. .Donald> that may work for her but since every one isn't using her system it is not going to work for others LUDDSHAR> And at one point, I have 69 generations. MARYELADD> And how do you number the lines that aren't direct Ladds. Like a Butler branch for example. I believe they are not numbered in Warren Ladd's book. But how would you keep track? .Bones> Mary they are numbered in the Warren Ladd book but it does get hard to follow sometimes .Donald> even the # system that Warren uses isn't fool proof. as there may be missing generations that didn't get entered in his book so they appear later with no # at all .Bones> also..those without info seemed to get lost in the numbering system too .Donald> by appearing later, I mean they show up in public documents or Family records and were never reported to WL for entry in his book .Bones> yes.. I have noticed that. MARYELADD> Well it seemed she had say a W1 for one surname, first generation on up, Then I suppose for the next surname beginning with W you might put WH1, maybe for White, whomever. MARYELADD> Are you getting the idea? .Donald> this happens from the second generation on. I guess that some were suspecious of data gatherers even then .Bones> I was just checking thru the David Ladd's I have in my database.. most are from the Connecticut area.. I have two without locations MARYELADD> Yes, I noticed this in the Warren Ladd book also. .Donald> the Big Brother syndrome has always been a part of 'mans' mackup since day one! .Bones> LOL so true.. so very very true .Donald> I only have 3 in my file, not counting Alan LADD's son David LUDDSHAR> That's not Alan Ladd the actor, is it? MARYELADD> I was thinking of asking the same Luddshar .Bones> I don't have anything on that part of the Ladd line at all .Donald> but what I found odd1 Alan claimed to be of the Southern LADDs so he thought. I find a David, s/o David LADD & Hephzibah HAZEN married a Mary WALBRIDGE in .Bones> Cheryl Ladd was married to David Ladd.. Alan Ladd's son .Donald> Yes Alan the actor of Hotsprings ARK LUDDSHAR> Alan Ladd the actor is not a Ladd. He was Polish. Changes their name LUDDSHAR> from Ladinowsky or Ladininsky. .Bones> interesting.. LUDDSHAR> According to an Alminac. I read it myself. .Donald> His fathe was named LADD He may have been the one to change his name but it says he is of Irish decent born in America MARYELADD> Wasn't Alan Ladd's mother born in England? .Donald> Yes and she was a LUDDSHAR> Sky is Polish. .Donald> RALEIGH MARYELADD> Yes, Bonnie Cherly was only a Ladd by marriage. She was born a Stoppermore, something like that. Alan Ladd had another son, Alan Ladd Jr was it. He is a producer. .Bones> yes.. she married into the family .Donald> anyway back to may train of thought , Walbridge was Alan's middle name an unusual name to have as a Christian name would'nt you think? .Bones> yes it is .Donald> Cheryl STOPPLEMORE could you imagine her making it in Hollowood with that name? .Bones> it would be a tuffy for sure MARYELADD> That is why she kept Ladd. She has remarried since. LUDDSHAR> She might have gotten away with More. .Donald> Alan LADD Jr finally made a name for himself in the Production end of the movies .Donald> His mother was Marjorie HARROLD .Donald> while David and Alana had a different mother MARYELADD> Alan Jr & David both have kids of their own that must be grown by now. .Donald> Evelyn LEDERER .Donald> aka: Sue CAROL .Donald> Alan Jr has 3 daughters MARYELADD> Donald how are you connected to these Ladds? .Donald> I know only of one for David; Jordan LADD MARYELADD> It has been so long since I read his autobiography. .Donald> not unless he is a true LADD and is of the Southern clan .Donald> Alana married Richard ANDERSON I think that he is the same ANDERSON that was the 6 MILLION DOLLAR MAN's boss and also play a police officer on the Perry Mason seriesN .Bones> Mary... do we know how the name "Hazen" entered into our family? One of the brothers to our 2nd ggrandfather Josiah was named Hazen MARYELADD> No Bonnie, I'm afraid I have no clue. .Bones> hmmm It is this Hazen's son who is buried in the Mineral, Illinois cemetery with Josiah and Sarah MARYELADD> Oh, what is the son's name? .Bones> Edwin, he was 15 or 16 when he died.. from TB .Bones> Hazen then moved out to California where he died .Bones> from what I have heard he died at sea MARYELADD> Did he have other children? Did his wife go to CA with him? .Donald> Wouldn't you suspect there were more HAZEN families in New England at the time David married Hephzibah HAZEN and since I have sketchy information on these families the name Hazen may have been .Donald> introduced as a Christian name as well as a surname! .Bones> I have a picture of Hazen and his wife Sarah Pervier .Bones> that is what I am thinking too... Hazen's parents were Josiah Ladd and Mary Polly Gale.. am wondering if the name Hazen came from her part of the family .Bones> Mary.. I don't know if Sarah went with Hazen or not.. but I show that she died in Riley, Kansas MARYELADD> Cool are you finding more and more photos? MARYELADD> Have you found anything on the Gale line? .Bones> not from the Ladd side. I received the photos of Hazen and Sarah from Erma. No.. I have nothing on the Gale line at all MARYELADD> Have had a chance to dig there yet. LOL Did you get in contact with Shirely Ada? .Bones> no... not yet. Hazen & Sarah had five children, Helen, Frank, Hazen Churchill, Edwin and Jennie .Donald> HJazen named a son Hazen Churchill LADD he married in Keats, Riley Co KS to Mary Adeline UPTEGROVE is that correct? MARYELADD> I believe I have seen that info somewhere. .Bones> yes... I was just going to mention that.. I suspect that his mother Sarah went to live with her son after her husband died .Donald> I have Frank F. & Edward D. and Helen N. .Bones> yes.. Frank F. and Edwin D.. Helen N. and Jennie .Donald> Hazen C. died 25 Oct 1903 Keats .Bones> yes.. and I show that he and his wife had a daughter named Hattie .Bones> I show that Hazen C. father Hazen died in San Francisco, Calif. in 1863 .Donald> Mary UPTEGROVE b. 22 Nov 1843 Brady Kalamazoo Co MI d. 18 Jun 1915 Floral, Cowley Co KS MARYELADD> Is this the one that fell off the golden gate bridge? .Donald> then that should have made the headlines there in SF .Bones> now that is a new one to me.. but could be. What in the world would he have been doing there? I heard he had died at sea.. that does sort of match up together .Bones> yes Donald... I have the same info on Mary Uptegrove.. :-) MARYELADD> Yes, I was wondering about this. Could he have been working on the bridge? .Donald> then one of can go home 8^) .Bones> possibly.. not sure when the bridge was being built I guess so Donald.. LOL .Donald> did you remember to LOG? .Bones> yes I did.. <GRIN> .Donald> good cause mine got interrupted when I got bounced I relogged when I came back .Bones> Donald.. do you have any reference as to where your info on Hazen came from? .Donald> some from the LADD book Im' not sure if I caught some of your post and entered YOUR information I usually add a e-mail address when I do that .Bones> probably did come from what I sent you.. .Donald> no it was befor that .Bones> hmmmmm... I know there has to be others out there from that part of the line..but have yet to find them .Donald> Dean's cousin was doing NH LADDs could be a connection there! .Bones> I am going to give that a try.. would be wonderful if there is .Bones> Our family came to Illinois in the 1850's MARYELADD> Yes, my notes say that Hazen was lost off the golden gate bridge. Don't know how this occured. I think this was mentioned in the book. .Donald> if every one would post a 3 gen chart [or mor] to the LDG one might find those connections sooner LUDDSHAR> Speaking of 3 generation chart. I sent mine to Misty in May. Haven't seen it anywhere. .Bones> I know.. I am trying to decide where I want to start my 3gen.. from Daniel to Paul probably.. .Donald> which of Josiah's children are you decended from? LUDDSHAR> Maybe I'm not looking in the right place. .Bones> Mine and Mary's line goes from Daniel, Nathaniel, Nathaniel, Paul, Josiah, Josiah, Josiah, Donald, and then our dads .Bones> Donald & Glen .Bones> did I get that right Mary? .Bones> :-) MARYELADD> Yes, you certainly did. :) .Donald> I have a Dopnald Irving LADD of Sacremento CA but his father came out of N.Dak .Bones> I don't know if any of Hazen's children ever ended up in California LUDDSHAR> There were some Ladds from benson Ladd that were in NC LUDDSHAR> oops ND .Donald> no no no not Dopnald it is Donald you would think I could spell my own name .Bones> lol .Donald> this Donald's father was William F. and mother Edna Josephine LOVETT .Donald> no further information on Wm's parents .Donald> Donald was born 17 Dec 1925 .Donald> some of Wm & Edna's children born in ND and some in CA .Bones> I checked my records for Edna Lovett.. have nothing on them MARYELADD> Bonnie did you ever write to our three time cousin Mary-Jo?

I take that back.. her first husband was Dudley Hilton.. her father was Kingsley Hall .Donald> Then is Dudley LADD really a LADD? .Bones> you know.. that is an interesting question..

MARYELADD> I have no b. for Mercy the dau. either only that she was b. in Exeter, NH. .Bones> that is very possible that Dudley and Mercy could have been from her previous marriage. Is worth checking it out .Donald> hard to say with 6 yeas between Josiah and Paul/Love .Donald> does NH have good public records from back then? .Bones> I guess the first thing we need to do is determine their date of marriage .Bones> I don't know.. I am really wanting to get out to New Hampshire and dig around. Am hoping to do a summer trip next year MARYELADD> Do we have any more info on Love Ladd? Did she marry? .Donald> no census record then....only church records and family records? .Donald> was Love a girl????

MARYELADD> Where is the Patriot index found? .Bones> yes I do.. but don't remember right off where it falls in line .Donald> I think it reads that they contributed to the war effort in another capicity MARYELADD> Well Mary Mercy mother maiden name was Dudley, Elizabeth. .Donald> because in Paul's case there is no rank given says; Patriotic Service onl;y .Bones> oh ok... well Mary.. Looks like we have a direct line connection thru the Ladds for the DAR then.. our family has been using the Williams line to qualify .Donald> only is what i added not in the record 8^) .Bones> that's interesting... very much so MARYELADD> Yes, that is .Bones> thanks Mary... I didn't have her mother's name .Donald> Did I give you valuable information? No charge! MARYELADD> Really, your welcome. I better get here. Goodnight to you both! .Donald> we are going to close shop too been 3 hours + .Bones> yes you did. I have been trying to find our direct line of Ladds that participated in the Revolutionary war.

No I didn't have that..where did you find it .Donald> it is a DAR publication .Bones> ok... will have to research that a bit.. thanks for the info .Donald> lot of LADDs there .Donald> mostly NEngland some southern LADDs .Bones> I would imagine so.. just haven't found our direct line of Ladd yet. We have used our direct line from Squire Williams to qualify.. .Donald> Do you have a SQUIRERS as a surname too? .Bones> Squire Williams was the fourth great grandson to Roger Williams.. our 2nd great grandmother Sarah Allen Patterson Ladd is a direct descendent of the Williams line.

Ok... will wait with the lights..don't want you tripping over any of the chairs .Donald> g'night Bonnie! .Bones> g'nite Donald ==== LADD Mailing List ==== The name Ladd or Lade, both spellings belong distinctly to the same family, is essentially Kentish. The Estate of Bowick in the Hundred of Loningsborough was in very ancient times, the residence of the Ladds. The name traveled over the border into Sussex but all documents point to the existence of but one family of Ladds previous to the seventeenth century. So wrote Mr. E. de Vermont in 1886 in America Heraldic, the first major endeavor to regularize armorial bearings of American citizens. He included only those arms brought to the New World prior to 1800.
