Looking for the parents of William Washington Boggs, b. abt 1821. Married in 1847 in Chatham county NC to Phebe Holaday. Died 1912 in Chatham Co NC. Is anybody researching the NC Boggs families? I have quite a bit of info. Also looking for info about Thomas H. Boggs, a potter in Alamance/Chatham County NC (The county line moved; Thomas didn't.) in the mid to late 1800s. Both of these men are my ggg grandfathers.

Your William Washington Boggs family connection is on page 84,Vol VI, No. 3, July 1983, Boggs Newsletter, A C Grady, Pub/Ed. His parents were Peter Boggs, b. 1782, m. 3 Jan 1802 Orange Co, NC, Polly Iseley. The contributor was a Mr. Donald Upchurch, 803 Vance St. Paragould, AR. 72450. (Alice Grady, believes that Peter Boggs, was a son of John Boggs & Eve Springer, who was a brother of James L. Boggs m. Elizabeth Clemmet & Phebe Boggs, m. John Flannery, & references Vol I, Boggs Newsletter 1978). This appears to be right, as I have the connection entered in my files. Anyway, your William Washington Boggs,stuck in my mind as that was my fathers name. Donald lists his line down to him. I was searching data on one Lilburn W. Boggs, when I ran into your Washington. Keep in mind that the data from Donald was 17 years ago this past July. Regards, John Andrew Boggs PS: I should have looked at my John Boggs/Mary Keys file before I sent this message. I have the connection already entered. I just need to incorporate Donald's data, then we can share if you so desire. How did you end up with two Boggses as your ggg grandfathers? How is Thomas connected? ----- Original Message ----- From: "rumarie" <mizdiz@netpath.net> To: <BOGGS-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, June 09, 2000 8:47 AM Subject: [BOGGS-L] Washington Boggs, 1800s, NC > Looking for the parents of William Washington Boggs, b. abt 1821. > Married in 1847 in Chatham county NC to Phebe Holaday.
