BOWMAN, GOLDEN, GOLDING -
I need help with some puzzling facts about my paternal grandmother Nancy R Golding who married Thomas J Bowman in 1903. The first record I have found for Nancy R, is in the 1900 census for Surry Co, NC. In the Dobson district, in household #98 Elizabeth Golding 35 was listed as a widow. She lived with four young individuals listed as her children, Sanders 23, Richard 21, Nancy 13, and Dona 11. Other documents indicate that the girls were born in VA, and that the young men's full names are Reuben Saunders Golding and Richard Houston Golding Searching previous VA censuses, I found in the 1880 census for Carroll Co, VA Fancy Gap district, household #324 a Reuben Golden 60, and wife Nancy 47. Their children are Nicholas F. 20, Elizabeth 18, James 16, Arizana 15, John H. 12, Martha F. 8, Reuben S. 6, Richard H. 5. I think that these last two could be the young men who were listed as sons of Elizabeth in 1900, but this possibility raises a lot of questions that I cannot answer.
For example, could Elizabeth be a second wife of Reuben?
Mainly though, I want the answer to the question, who are parents of Nancy R. and Dona A Golden/ing? I will appreciate and info or leads, Byron

BOWMAN, JONES, WOODS -
I am looking for any information on William and Jane Jones. Est born, 1800-1830. They lived in Carroll Co before moving to Patrick Co. They had several children. I believe they were Wm's stepchildren, but they end up using his last name for life. One daughter was named Hulda Ann Jones. On her marriage certificate she is listed as Hulda Ann Woods. I believe this is her mothers maiden name. On her death certificate it states she was born in Carroll County. I know everyone always says this, but her mother may have been an Indian. The reason I mentioned this is she is listed in the Cherokee records. This will make finding her hard. At one point the children were listed as Bowman. With all these names you'd think I could find something on these people!!!!
