Dear Mr. Swann: Mrs. Rubie Ross Queen has told us that you have done considerable research work in your community. Also that you have an excellent memory concerning many of the Old Timers there. The CLARK we would like to find is the father of our JOHN CLARK who married ELIZABETH GREEN in Montgomery Co., Maryland, on January 25, 1802. (See top of page 2 GREEN Family.) We are emphatically told that John Clark was born in Maryland, and some of the family Says in BALTIMORE (whether city or county ? ). But it's possible that John's parents had gone into old Rowan County, same as the GREEN family of an earlier generation. Our ELIZABETH GREEN who married JOHN CLARK was the daughter of THOMAS GREEN who did NOT (apparently) move to Iredell County. However, Thomas's father JOHN and brothers ISAAC and WILLIAM and sister MARTHA did move to Iredell. John's wife was JEMIMA. We learn that our JOHN CLARK was Methodist, at least after he got to Belmont County, Ohio, Kirkwood Twp., he was one of the founders of the Salem Methodist Society. Mrs. Queen states you live near Bethel Methodist Church and could possibly look at the old tombstones there. If you could, without too much trouble, we surely would greatly appreciate knowing just what CLARK, GREEN, and SHEPPARD might be buried there. In the 1776 census for Montgomery Co., Maryland, in old JOHN GREEN's family there was also a daughter Dianme born about 1757; but she does not appear in the family in 1790, nor is she mentioned in her father's will dated May 30, 1793. So, Dianne must have either died, or married and left home, prior to 1790. But we have not found any further record of her in Montgomery Co., Md. Keep the enclosed family lists if you want them. And we hope you won't be offended at the enclosed five-dollar bill, but we do want to pay you something for your time and trouble, especially if you search through that old cemetery. We hope that all is well with you and your family, and are looking forward eagerly to hearing what youcanm tell us about these old timers. We are not sure whether our old SHEPPARDs went imto Iredell County, but it's possible. We recently learned of a lady in nore jia descent from a JAMES SHEPPARD born about 1741 in Sheppards Town, Maryland, and who. went with his father to Rowan Co., N, Car., about 1752. Have written Mrs. Queen about this, The lady was Bettie Sheppard Williamson, a DAR member through the Revolutionary War service of above JAMES Sheppard. It's possible that our ancestor designated as JOHN SHEPPARD III on page 1 of our Sheppard list, might have had a’ brother JAMES who went to Iredell County: Above James "went with his father" and that may account for the fact we cannot locate our JOHN II ! This is probably becoming confusing to you and we didn't mean to bring in the whole "clan", But if you should happen to have some of those old Sheppards among your. recollections, we would greatly appreciate knowing about them. Our best wishes to you and your loved ones. Sincerely, rascals apices neti 7 pz fieefX C12¢ K y af iy pb- shot (ee om ardent.

But be that as it may, I feel that abso- lutely nothing can take the Place of our Lord's plan. He Would begin with the in dividual and have him enter regularly “into his closet” (Matthew 6:5 6) Another part of his plan was that “two or three” should gather in his name and he Would be in their midst (Matthew 18:20). 3.

In closin ) 8 in this Connection, I would Say two simple things : 800d men whe ted and carried on “the School of the Prophets” have left for all of us an example that is most thoroughly worth while; and second, if the ministers of this and succeeding fenerations will accept and follow this example, they wil) find some. thing that will do for them what nothing else can do, They wil! find also that our seneration wil] have a ministry that is an ever increasingly effective one. “And go mote it be!” W. R. Chambers Leads Blue Top Stale in Perceniage The Blue Ridge Association, with Walter R. Chambers of Marion as moderator, leads the state in percentage of Recorper elubs in the churches, for it has just attained the high record of 100 per cent of the churehes having eifher a club or the Every-Bamily Plan. There are several associations which have almost all their churches with Re- corper clubs, but the Blue Ridge is the first one to reach every church. This high record has been reached pri marily through the interest and faithful work of Mr. Chambers himself. He was elected RECORDER representative a year ag0, and he at once began to’ take his position seriously. He is a busy lawyer and a leading business man in Marion, and also a faithful member of his own chureh, but he found time to visit various churches in the @egocta tion and present the cause of the Rme@oRDER to them. He wrote letters as well ag made visits. He emphasized the importance of having Baptist literature .in the homes of the people and he usually ended by getting at least a few families to indicate at once that they would ‘organize 4 Recorper club im the church. He visited at the Sunday @chool hour or at the preaching service, aéeording to whichever seemed most conveniem— and best for the purpose. If the people: hesi tated or suggested postponing the matter, he usually said, “Now is the time t® start the Recorper in the homes of the pepple.” Almost always there was immediate response Of course Mr. Chambers could not have gotten these good results without the ¢co- ration of the pasto Sunday. , gchoo!
