I know Oliver Springs, Tennessee. My mother was from Rockwood, and Harriman, Tennessee. Her family was Andrews, Hyder, VanHoy, Carroll, Evans, Wyatt and others. Would be nice if you could talk about any of these families. I love to watch your talks. ,
Some have been covered already. Give me your email address, or, for your privacy, write me at vanntagepoint22@gmail.com. I'll send you the list of names and their corresponding episodes.
My Mother grew up in Harriman Tn in the 1940-55, She moved to the Los Angeles area when she was 15 to live with an older sister. She talked a lot about Harriman when I was growing up. She still received a Harriman Newspaper for years! She was a member of the Lane/Mills family
My McClellan ancestors came from Ulster to Pennsylvania in the 1730's. They had the Black Pony tavern outside of Gettysburg on the pike leading south down the Appalachian trail.
The round table sounds intriguing. It seems I know or know of someone with just about every name you mention on your videos. I always wish I had asked more questions of my grandparents, or at least been wise enough to listen. Thanks for your interesting contributions. ~ Lisa
Thanks, your video are very imformative!! The Surname on my mothers side is Lyon(s). My AncestryDNA on my mother's side says Lyon's were Appalachia settlers. My mother said we were French, but as of now, we are Scottish and Irish. Thank you in advance!
As a Tipton, I've done a little tracking as to the origin of the name. It can be found in the Domesday Book as a village in Staffordshire and is a larger town these days. Family history always claimed it came from England.
Tipton must have migrated out of the black country (which is an area so called for the heavy industrial black wasteland it once was) which is right next door to Staffordshire
@@mrkitcatt2119 I think it was a place name of some origin, possibly Norman French. The village of Tipton is named in the Domesday Book, so it pre-dates any heavy industrial land usage. The description indicates agricultural usage at the time of the compilation of the Domesday, a very typical land use for the time. I don't have access to my copy of the Domesday Book right now so I can't give specifics.
One of my mom's ancestors was one of the guys trying to set up Franklin TN! After about 6 gen and ending up in OK, my brother married a girl from back there ... mom used to say "...it took us 6 generations to get out of those hills and the first pretty girl crooks her finger at you and there you go!" They've been married for 35+ years now. Oh, the name? Doherty ....
So cool. living in the Piedmont of NC and my Surname arising here I love the connections from here to my Kentucky part of my tree. Cox is a big time Quaker name here. Lots of Quakers in the Piedmont. The Piedmont is a quaker hub. I see a lot of names that are very common here in researching my family branch that went into Kentucky. Makes me believe they travel together. Skeen is also a big name here.
The paternal side of my family hails from Georgia. Some of the surnames in my lineage include: Anderson; Banks; Nix; Yarborough; Maxwell; Higginbotham; and others. (I know from family history that our Banks ancestors were living in Virginia during the colonial period, moving later through NC and then to GA. Many of my Banks ancestors had very large families, as did the Andersons, both of whom are numerous in GA to this day. Quite a few of the descendants have moved around to other parts of America in recent years as well. )
@ShelleyAnderson-l7k Hi Shelly, Thanks for writing! I have covered several of your family names. Please send me an email to vanntagepoint22@gmail.com, and I'll hit return with the list and episodes attached to it.
I like the round table idea. Question for me is it something I can listen to over my phone? I don't have the tech equipment to participate and my You Tube viewing is on my phone. I would still be interested in participating for the learning experience!
Could you comment on surnames Strange, Etherton, Burchfiel(d), Moon? All of my great grandparents were born before the Civil War except the Moons who were during or just after the war. Btw I am familiar with Oliver Springs. There was a guy from there who lived across the hall fry me at Hiwassee College. Anyway I’m from Dante in North Knoxville.
Here are a few of my paternal and maternal grandparent names. All the family has been in the hills of N.W. Georgia or N.E. Alabama since the early 1800s. Here are a few. Mayo, McClung, Fanchier, Gaylor, Bartlett, Garrard, Martin, Harris.
There was a Richard Cocke(s)/Cox who was a wealthy James River plantation owner and burgess. Four or five presidents are descended from him. Another unusual southern surname I've come across is Box.
@@BarryVann Oh, heck no! Totally amateur. Just pick things up here and there when researching my own ancestry over the years. Got deep tidewater roots :)
I did a little online digging for a friend and her last name of Cox, it seems to be a from Cocke/s meaning someone who cooks. It depends on what country the name originated from.
Could you please research the surname CREMEANS. It was my grandmother’s maiden name. You have already mentioned my grandfather’s surname, ADKINS, and I greatly appreciate your research of these surnames. They were both from West Virginia. Thank you.
Love this series! I have tested at just about every autosomal company.. plus Big Y 700 for my Y DNA. My haplogroup is I-Y77495.. distant origin is pointing to Sweden or Finland. But on paper only have gotten to my 5th ggf John Cox.. Pittsylvania County Virginia. A Cox Y DNA match has traced his line to Eastern TN.. perhaps a brother of my ancestor. Good chance I am distant kin to some of those Coxes in Eastern TN today.
Indeed! My maternal grandfather had the same haplogroup as you. I'm a R-df23, but I think I look more Scandinavian than Celt. Genes are interesting! Barry
@@BarryVann Thanks, i appreciate it. I've been going through some of your previous videos, and have seen your comments on some other of my family names: Stone, Stewart, Tandy/Tully, Thompson
I was playing around with the name Clayton my grandfather's name my great grandfather was a constable in Streator, Illinois my granfather was a brick maker, built trucks etc at Anthony's in Streator but he also worked at a nursery ( horticulture) and furniture factory so thinking of Clay /ton as lots of Clay falls in line of brick layer but doesn't help that great grandfather a constable (?) Any suggestion would be helpful...and topmost much appreciated..
How are you doing dr Barry iam very happy to watch your channel . As always iam gathering main points you mentioned briefly here it’s actually there are red surnamed is derived from old English word “ read “ means “red” mostly likely name was used as nickname for someone with red hair before becoming surnames. Possibly name is local from red color redhead land or rock or soil . There are such spots called in for far shire and Orkney. There are some red head names means such as Annie is little orphan Annie , bluey Australian nickname for red head . Irish names means red caere means fiery, Clancy means red haired warrior, Corcoran means ruddy- faced .
Hello Khatoon! May I point out a place to out a comma. Take a look at your sentence that starts with "As." Do you see a natural pause after always? That's where a comma should be inserted. It's good to communicate with you.
Yes, but at the time, I was looking specifically for Johnson folk in southern Appalachia. A general look at its origin would expand the origin beyond Scotland. See Episode 1.
I have to rewatch this one, I got sidetracked at Carver 🤣 I started to ponder the history of men sitting around whittling, and I'm not talking about carving figures. Just whittling on a piece of wood with a pocket knife. I wonder if that happened other places besides southern Appalachia? I don't see men do that anymore, not even when I go back home to the coal camps. 🤔
Gigi, that's a great question. I would say that at one time most people had to have some wood working capacity for bowls and spoons, if nothing else. Barry
In Scotland, even the lairds lacked cash in the 17th century. Septs were allied families of larger highland clans. Highland society was poor and focused on agriculture, but the clans existed outside of feudalism, so they were as poor as a peasant, but they did not owe their existence to a laird (lord).
William: McDowell is mac- Dubh-ghall which plainly (in Irish) means "son of dark foreigner" so a name for the Vikings settled in the East Coast, as opposed to Fingal which means fair-haired Viking
Perhaps kerver was pronounced carver. I’m thinking too modern maybe, but there was an English actress in the last century named Deborah Kerr whose name was pronounced car.
@@BarryVann that’s actually my nickname from re-enactment (and yes my persons was Scottish). My real first name is brandy If you can’t tell I’m ridiculously proud of my heritage

Another good lesson Barry. You covered two more of my ancestors, Markham and Skene.
That tells me that you are a genuine southerner, John! Thanks for writing! Barry
How about Stiltner?, Ive been told the original was a Hession soldier pressed into service against the Americans in the Revolutionary war
Originally from Grundy Va.

Teda, it's found in England as an early alternate form of Pagnel.
I’m looking for DeHart. Thank you 😊
I have placed DeHart on the list, Katie! Thanks! Barry

Great video, Barry. I've run into all these names except Skeen and its variants.
Cool, thanks! Barry
In central MS where I live there are lots of Burrells. They pronounce it
