CARTER, FARR, NEEDHAM -
I was born in Roda Virginia 7/14/1949 I have two older sisters also born there. My mother was
Edith Farr 3/27/1929 and my fathers was Henry James Needham. My grandmother was
Hazel Carter and grandfather was Polk Farr. He was a miner there and was killed in
a mining accident in 1929 my mother was 6 days old. All I know is he was 20 when he died and was
born in Tennessee. I am trying to find any information on my family . My mother died 12/15/1999
and I have never had contact with Henry Needham. I have some pictures and a couple letters
from my oldest living great aunt Helen . I hope there is a way to find anyone that may be family
or know of my family.
My mother moved to Chicago when I was about four and never talked about
the past. It seemed too hard for her, being raised by a stepfather who never wanted her. She left
school around the third year. Any help or direction would be great. Thank you

My gr., gr., gr., gr., grandfather was born in Mecklenburg County, Va. Presley Calhoun
Rottenberry, Jan. 31, 1793. Served in the war of 1812 under Capt. Robert Hubbards
Volunteers, Moved to Orange County, N.C. and married Elizabeth Ann Collier, Jan. 17th,
1818. Then settled in Bibb County, Alabama on a land grant plantation. I believe that his father

cannot seem to make the father/ grandfather connection. Can you look at your genealogy records
and see if you see anything that might help me. Sincerely, Richard Rotenberry, Panama City, Fla.

ARNOLD, BLAIR -
Am searching for William Franklin Arnold, he was born in 1890 in Virginia. I do not know
what county or city in Virginia. He died in Ohio in 1934, but I don't know where. If I could find
his birth certificate, I would jump for joy! All I know is he married my grandmother, and her
maiden name was Nora Blair. He died long before I was born, so I never knew him. I'm still
searching for his death certificate in Ohio, but haven't had much luck. I would appreciate any
help. Thank you so much.
