HONEYSETT, MANN, NORTHROP, NORTHRUP, ROOTH posted by Greg Holm on Saturday, December 12, 1998

My Grandmother, Leona (Northrop) V. Holm was born on Nov 7, 1905 in Tilden to Frank Northrop (or Northrup) and Martha Mae (Mann) Northrop. I have what I think is a listing of my G-Grandfather (Frank) in the 1880 census of Grove Precinct, Madison County as being the step-son of George Honeysett and Louisa Honeysett (page 506). My Grandmother's older sister, Pansy, was married to Asa Rooth on January 12, 1910 in Tilden (from a note in my grandmother's Bible) Any additional information on any of these folk from newspaper articles, county records, church records, etc would be greatly appreciated. I am willing to pay for some research (Please e-mail me with quotes before beginning, though) Thank you, Greg Holm E-Mail: GHolmCMFBP@aol.com
