My Maternal Side Family Names

[ANewMe]

I'm looking for the surnames:

Sanderson, Hennessee or Hennessey, Jobe and Welch.

 

My family has lived in MS since my g-grandparents.

 

I have hit a brick wall with the Sanderson side....traced back to TN and I think that they came from Kentucky as well.

 

My great grandma was a Hennessee. Her Father and his family came from Ireland and lived in TN along the riverbank. His whole family was killed in a buggy accident and he was the only one to survive.

 

My maternal grandma was a Welch from Louisiana and I know nothing about that side of the family.

 

Anyone with info....it would be greatly appreciated

Have you gone to http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi, they have so many names, you might find something. Or, have you tried http://www.usgenweb.org/ They are really good too.

 

Good luck, I know what it is like to get stuck and just can't seem to find a way out, or maybe I should say in.
