There is a discrepancy in the death date of James Staggs, family record was 28 Oct. 1850; others say 29 June 1850. Since the will was proved on 8 October 1850, he was clearly long dead by then. Also Family record listed James B. Staggs father as James Staggs, Sr., born 11 Sep. 1737. Now it is believed to be Joseph Staggs, b 1745, d abt. 1810 . No proof has been offered, either way.

Notes for SARAH BEARD:
A census record says she was born Pennsylvania. Her tombstone says 27 Feb 1779.

Jane,
...I just ran across a scrap of note paper that I had written your email address on and the words "Staggs Genealogy".
...My mother is a Staggs whose father came from Fleming County, Kentucky. None of the Staggs here have put together any genealogy. I have a little of the my mother's genealogy on my website http://www.douglascoulter.com/Personal/staggs.html
...Did you happen to trace any of the Staggs that migrated to Galesburg/Knox County? There was a large contingent of Kentucky folk that came to Central Illinois. I have attached the picture of their 1940 annual picnic.
...Looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks.

Sun, 29 Sep 2002 13:46:54 -0500 (Central Standard Time)
From: "Jay/Mary Beth Isacks"
Jane,
…I was "surfing" for Hurst information when I chanced upon your site on the Staggs Family of Fleming County, Kentucky.
…John Doyle Hurst, son of Walter Warder Hurst and Lucinda Doyle Hurst, is my ggrandfather. I have done much research on this family. You have several errors in the Walter Warder Hurst line. Walter Warder Hurst was married once and that was to Lucinda Doyle Hurst. Their ninth child, Walter Warder Hurst Jr, was married to Leonora Winona Robertson on October 31, 1900. Attached is their wedding picture taken in Sedan, KS. Leonora Winona Robertson was born December 20, 1876 and died January 29, 1904. Walter & Winona had one child, Winona Marjorie Hurst.
…Other information on John Doyle Hurst is that he was born November 11, 1865, Louisville, Fleming Co., KY. He married Rachel Elizabeth McGrew (called "Bessie") November 17, 1895, in Sedan, Chautaugua Co., KS. They had three children: Ivetta Bea Hurst (my grandmother), Lela Doyle Hurst, and Beulah Vivian Hurst.
…George Oscar Hurst was married three times: Clara Martin Madden (we can't seem to find dates for this marriage); #2 Belle Moore, m. October 20, 1902, Beachwell, OK (their children were Clare and Jimie Hurst); #3 Clara W. Conner, m. July 18, 1934, Sedan, KS.
…I have a few pictures of the Staggs family - you may already have them. Let me know if you would like for me to send them. I don't want to tie up your computer with stuff you don't want or need.
…Hope to hear from you,
Mary Beth Isacks
