With ancestral surnames that date to the first millennium A.D. in
England and the Colonial era in the U.S.A., these Eads and Tipton
families have been emigrating from the earliest times. Their tales
of travel include a heroic knight in a Welsh forest, a kidnapped
boy sold into servitude who became a plantation owner in Jamaica,
farmers who emigrated from Maryland and North Carolina west to Ohio
and Tennessee, and homesteaders in Illinois and Missouri with land
grants from the government. Other interesting stories include a
link to the Jesse James Gang and a U.S. President, and war veterans
from the Civil War to WWII. Biographies of fifteen
turn-of-the-century babies (born around 1900) and four Tipton
siblings (born in the early 20th century just before the Great
Depression) complete this saga of American life as it unfolded over
the centuries. Photographs, maps, documents, and a Proper Name
Index will aid the genealogical researcher in finding their own
roots. Also included are Ancestors and Descendants charts with
numerous surnames, including: Allen, Atnip, Barker, Barrett,
Bennett, Bishop, Campbell, Canning, Chiles, Coffel, Collins,
Croney, Dees, Eads, Gentry, Hache, Harden, Heath, Johnson, Jones,
Leach, London, Long, Machen, Masters, Meador, Miller, Montgomery,
Neece, Rainwater, Smith, Sutton, Tipton, Vannoy, Ward, White,
Wright, and many others.
