Ah I forgot about those two my bad.

On another note does anyone remember when I posted that I had traced online the Travis name back to England and there are records dating back to 1066 AD? Well I did alittle more online research and foundout that the origin of the Travis name goes back to Normandy and the name came from the French word traverser, to traverse, meaning to move across, over or through an area. Since bridges and roads were not always public properties hundreds of years ago, owners often charged a toll. The person who guarded the gate to the bridge or watched over the road collected the toll for crossing. That occupation evolved into the surname Travers and given name Travis.
It sounds like the Travis's started out enforcing the rules and regulations of the land almost 1000yr's ago! Sorry just having some fun but I'm really digging this search and I registered at
ancestry.com and posted a request in their general forum section. Well I now have a professional genealogist helping me with my search.
Anyway thanks for enduring my rant as I find this subject very exciting.
