obituary for Earl Ladd in Muleshoe, Texas.  Do you know any of his
descendants?

it over, but no reply.
> KYLADDS> Does his family names look familar to you??

Ladd.  John A. Ladd b. 1874, ARk. was the son of Milton Ladd, b. abt 1826,
of Scott Co., Ark. and probably the son of Joseph and Hester Ladd.  Milton
was most likely the brother to my Constantine Ladd, b. 1812 Indiana.

> .Sharon> Hello Sidney
> SIDNEYLL> Hi! Everyone.
> .Donald> R U a LADD researcher or a chat surfer?
> .Bones> Hi Sidney.. are you a Ladd researcher too?
> SIDNEYLL> I am a Ladd and have done some research.
> .Janet> Hello Sidney.  Tell us more!
> SIDNEYLL> Not as much as I'd like though. :)
> KYLADDS> Welcome!!!
> .Bones> which Ladd line do you come from?
> .Donald> Good!  tell us about it.  What line are you reseaching?
> SIDNEYLL> I am in Kentucky. Caldwell Co.  Descended from Samuel C. Ladd.
> KYLADDS> Hmmmmm Mine are from Trigg
> .Donald> And Samuel C. is descended from?
> SIDNEYLL> I am not sure, past that.
> .Donald> There are so many Samuels  it is hard to keep track.
> KYLADDS> What year was Samuel born in??
> KYLADDS> I am from the Ransom line if you know anything about him
> SIDNEYLL> This is the Samuel whose children were,  Dock, Bill, John, etc..
> .Donald> That is Samuel C. b. ca 1819?
> KYLADDS> Sidney, from what year???  It still doesn't ring a bell with me
> .Donald> married to a Sarah A ___?___
> SIDNEYLL> I don't know his date right off, his children were in the war
between the states, so early 1800's.
> KYLADDS> Ok Donald, who was Samuels father? You got that in your book???
> SIDNEYLL> Yes, We think it is Sarah Ann Sanders, not sure.  It is listed
as Ladd.  Or...Sue Ann Sanders
> .Sharon> I have Samuel married to Susannah Oliver Hilton
> .Donald> William Absolom, John H.  Joseph D/P, Susan, & D. [Dock]  ?
> .Janet> Sidney, were they from Caldwell Co, KY?
> SIDNEYLL> I saw his father listed as Harvey Hubbard Ladd, but not sure
that is correct.
> .Sharon> Must be a different Samuel C. Ladd, mine born in 1819
> SIDNEYLL> Well. Trigg and Caldwell County.
> .Donald> They were in Trigg Co  info from Charles of Smithville OK
> .Sharon> Susannah Oliver Hilton (I take that back, wrong)
> SIDNEYLL> It was early 1800's but I'd have to go look at the date to be
sure.
> .Janet> There was a Mary McAnally Ladd, widow of Constantine Ladd; he died
in 1801.  She married William Asher and moved to Caldwell County, KY.
> .Donald> 1850 census:  Bill A.  9 yrs; John H.  7 yrs; Susan E. 6 yr; D.
[Dock] 4 yr; Joseph D/P  1 yr
> KYLADDS> I have ALOT of ky notes!  I just can't get to them.
> SIDNEYLL> Later in my family the name, Samuel Clyde Ladd appears and
another with a middle name of Clarence.  Might be the C.
> .Donald> D. [Dock] had middle name of Stanley;  mothers maiden name?????
> SIDNEYLL> That is the right family in the 1850 census.
> SIDNEYLL> I have no idea where the Stanley came from.  He was named Doctor
Stanley Ladd.
> .Donald> I have additional children after 1850:  Lee; Alice B.  and
another William  [???]
> .Donald> Was he born about the time STANLEY located LIVINGSTON?
> SIDNEYLL> I don't know about the Alice B, but I suspect the Lee as being
their child but can't find anyone who knows about him here.
> SIDNEYLL> Yep, I've thought about the Livingston idea. :)
> .Donald> I have a marriage date for Samuel of ca 1840.  Have you found any
marriage cert?
> SIDNEYLL> My father is still living and he knew most of them.  He is 97
now.
> .Janet> There are several Ladds on the 1850 KY index close by and of the
right age to be Samuel's father too.
> SIDNEYLL> I have suspected, John Sr. but can't find any records.
> SIDNEYLL> No cert, but that date sounds correct.
> .Janet> I have in a little notation that John Sr. was b. in SC, is that
right?
> .Donald> I have a death date for both William Absolom of 04 Nov 1921 and
for Dock or as he is listed S.D as of 31 Jan 1935  have you found any death
certs on them?
> .Janet> About 1794 -- John Ladd Sr., b. SC -- have anything Donald?
> .Donald> no parents listed for Sam C.
> SIDNEYLL> William A has no death certificate.  I am in the process of
having one made now.  The other is correct, I think.
> SIDNEYLL> John Sr in SC sounds familiar.  Charles Ladd on the webpage had
his father listed as Harvey Hubbard.
> .Donald> I don't have a Harvey Hubbard in my file or is Hubbard a surname?
> SIDNEYLL> I had never seen it before either except there.  It was listed
Harvey Hubbard Ladd.
> .Donald> Sidney, Dock went by Stanley then instead of Doc[k]?
> SIDNEYLL> Both the Harvey and Hubbard name come up later on in my family.
> ** BOBBYSFMTR just joined "Ladd Genealogy" (7 members now) **
> SIDNEYLL> No, he was always known as Doc or Dock, however it was spelled.
> SIDNEYLL> His tombstone says D. S. Ladd.
> .Donald> Sidney,  I have a Samuel LADD married to a Martha HUBBARD but
this in the New England line  and probably has no bearing on this Samuel C.
> SIDNEYLL> Probably not directly, but that may be where the name came from.
Nice clue!
> .Donald> also too many years elapsed between the Samuels
> .Donald> NEng Samuel  b. 11 Apr 1744
> .Donald> could be a great grandfather though
> SIDNEYLL> Yes, might be.  Thanks.
> .Donald> Hi Bobby, sorry didn't mean to ignore you!
> BOBBYSFMTR> Hi everyone I see your still breathing Donald
> ** BOOKLOVER1 just joined "Ladd Genealogy" (8 members now) **
> .Donald> Yes they haven't been too hard on me, yet...the night isn't over
yet.
> BOBBYSFMTR> I knew you'd survive. Are we talking D.S. Ladd?
> .Donald> Yes Doctor Stanley LADD
> BOBBYSFMTR> I have a picture of his tombstone that Virginia sent to me.
> SIDNEYLL> I have a picture of Dock and his brother William A and their
wives.

> .Sharon> Yes.
> .Sharon> Elisha Ladd b. 1798 in SC, lancaster Dist.
> .Sharon> d. 1854 in Trigg Co., KY
> .Sharon> M. Elizabeth Johnson
> SIDNEYLL> Bobby, I think I may have a suspicion on that one but I don't
have my records here with me right now.
> .Sharon> children Elisha b. 1853, Evander and William
> BOBBYSFMTR> He was married to Oneida Goode
> SIDNEYLL> I think of Elijah, John or Amos, right now.
> BOBBYSFMTR> Some think he was the son of Benjamin
> BOBBYSFMTR> Donald you have 4 without parents?
> .Donald> I have a Elisha b. abt 1812 with a son Henry F.[middle name?]
> .Sharon> Yes, (1) elizabeth Johnson

> BOBBYSFMTR> I had thought of Amos too.

Sally WALLIS 04 Jan 1832K

children than the 4 listed here under mother Sally?

M. age 3 & Henry F.  age 1
> BOBBYSFMTR> Thats the one
> BOBBYSFMTR> Henry is my g-grandfather
> .Donald> Then all these children belong to Onieda?
> BOBBYSFMTR> Yes
> .Donald> And is Francis M = Francis Marion LADD?
> BOBBYSFMTR> There could have been children by the other marriages I don't
know.
> BOBBYSFMTR> Yes Francis Marion
> .Sharon> I have children of elisha and Oneida as Edward b. b. 1839, sarah
Francis "Fannie" b. 2 7 1844, francis marion b. 1847, Henry franklin b. Jan

C., 56, b. SC, page 303.  Possible brothers?????  That would make Sidney and
Bobby related.
> .Donald> The oldest was a 97 and Lives in Salem OR
> SIDNEYLL> Yep, it would if John C is correct in my line.
> BOBBYSFMTR> Did they mention anything about Marions Father?
> BOBBYSFMTR> Hey another cousin?
> .Donald> I didn't mean 97  I don't know why I said that!!!

just got back in contact
> .Donald> they are in the Directory...LECKIE
> .Janet> Donald do you have a Ladd with sons Elisha and John C. both b. in

solve this probem.  Let us know when you find out.
> BOBBYSFMTR> With all the children that are supposed to be Benj. there
