Hi Pam & all, I'm in a Shepherd maze and hope someone can help me find my way out. From info sent to me by Mike - [email protected]_ (mailto:[email protected]) - on 9/21/05, the following: Shepherd Daniel b. bef. 1774, was a son of James Daniel b. 1730, d. 1789 in Halifax Cty., NC and Elizabeth West b. bef 1758, (daughter of William West and Martha). Siblings of Shepherd are listed as West b. 1770, Patsey, b. before 1771, Ephraim b. bef. 1772, Milly b. bef. 1776, Margaret (called Peggy) b. bef. 1789. Shepherd Daniel b. bef. 1804, son of West Daniel b. 1770 and Rebecca Lanier, daughter of Shepherd Lanier and Lucy Smith. I have found a Shepherd Daniel listed in the Iredell Co., NC census records of 1820, 1830, 1840. Could he be the son of West Daniel and Rebecca Lanier? (There's also a West Daniel in the 1820 Iredell Co., NC census). Another Shepherd: my great grandfather Shepherd L. Daniel b. 1836 in Iredell Co., NC. According to the late Minnie Hall of the Grayson Co., Va. Historical Society, his parent's (my gg grandparents) were Shepherd Daniel of NC and Mary Moss. I don't know when my gr grandfather Shepherd L. Daniel moved to Va., but his residence was Grayson Co., Va. in 1861, when he enlisted as a Confederate soldier. He lived in Grayson Co. until his death in 1918. I would sure appreciate any information which would help connect (or not) the gg grandfather Shepherd Daniel of Iredell Co. to West Daniel and Rebecca Lanier. Much thanks to Pam, Mike and others who have helped me before with this "Shepherd" issue which never seems to end. This has been my brick wall for a long time. Regards, Pat
Hi all, (Mike, this is late follow-up to an old topic), I finally got back to working on my notions about James Daniel (d.1789) and Elizabeth West. When I first thought I was "seeing" the possibility of relating the James Daniel who married Elizabeth West to the Edmund gang, I had his probable time of marriage off, but I'm still iffy on that because I don't have enough later records to establish it fully. The later records that put him with the Peter gang are compelling, but at the time I was also looking to make sure his location at time of marriage made sense, i.e. where were Israel West and his sister Elizabeth, did James go to them, was he already there, etc. I had James and Elizabeth marrying later (mid to late 1770s) when Israel West had already started unloading his father's property on Stoney Creek, had moved up to Halifax and was _very_ tied to the Edmund gang on Beaverdam at the time. But with a bit more later stuff I realize James' marriage was ?earlier? than I had thought and it probably puts him back with the Peter group - but I can still say a "maybe" with that, it depends on when he married and on if the William Daniel of Stoney Creek is part of the Peter gang or not. But yeah, my Edmund thoughts are pretty trashed now. This is going to be my worst ever post of thoughts, I just can't get a hold of what I'm thinking (good sign whatever it is is wrong, eh?). And just personal background, I am so hypersensitive to, not just the possibility, but the probability that there are always more than one of the same name in any given location (the story of my life), so you have to watch out for me seeing triple when it might not be so and fix me on it (think Cool Hand Luke, "Have you got your mind right, Pam?"). But there's definite record evidence of two James Daniel running around in 1770, I just don't see much further identifying or separating them. And there's a William Daniel down in the nearly correct Nash area as early as 1740 before the Brunswick folk came down (and I don't think he's part of the Simon gang either). A big chunk of everything rests on the details of the 20 Jan 1793 sale by West, Ephraim, and Patsy Daniel to James Judge. All I've seen so far is that it took place and it's in book 17, possibly page 500, county isn't named. Please, does anybody have a fuller citation of it, particularly some bit of description of the acreage or location? There's only one "loose" piece of land that I can find that belonged to a James Daniel in 1789 (besides the 200a he gave to son West), he had unloaded all the others. What's left is the 266a on the S side of the Sapony, is that the land the heirs sold in 1793 or not? And are they the only children of James and Elizabeth? And the last thoughts, but I'm not going to try to state it all here, the 1771-1772 deeds that put James Daniel in Edgecombe/Nash with father-in-law William West around the time of his marriage(?) could be related to the earlier William Daniel of Stoney Creek in Nash, and I can't feel too positive that that's the same as the Brunswick William and Peter gang, not when William and Sarah are in Halifax at the same time (early 1760s). Or possibly what I'm doing here is being stubborn and saying that I don't think the Brunswick William first or also went south to the Nash area and then back up to the Halifax area, call me on it if that's what's happening! Anyway, below is the James Daniel data I'm looking at, chronological, entry followed by [further location of land mentioned even if not Daniel land, questions, comments]. 1770 shows there's two James, and the various land acquisitions are a little strange, not enough acreage to suggest he's just speculating, but what then? And is there any indication of why he went to Halifax not long before he died and where was he living there? I have to watch myself, I can make a case that almost any of these guys is a whole separate James Daniel! Here's my other news, I published a page of my Daniel records of Edgecombe/Halifax/Nash/Wilson and a bit of the applicable Granville/Warren counties with a map to help locate the lands (oh, the map passion I inherited from my Daddy). It's at: http://www.pamiller.net/genealogy/docs/danieledgehalifnashwilson/index.htm Another big please - does anybody know where Jarrells Swamp was in Halifax, or the Gum Swamp (it wasn't a generic gum swamp) that was in the Beaverdam area? They just aren't showing up anywhere!

Hi again, Robert, Sort of inevitable, if I had just waited a day - I did a hit and run today on my library to return some books and dashed off a bit from the Wilkes tax books, not complete, but enough: In 1785 Thomas Burton Sr and Jr are next to each other, #10 and 11 on the list) in that district called AAA, and Walt Nunnery [sic] is #56. In 1785 the only Daniels listed, in various other districts, are Thomas, Edward (actually it's Edmond), and Benjamin. In 1786 Thomas Burton Sr is in AAA #7 and Wm Daniel is #5, no Nunn----. In 1787 Wm Daniel is #5, Thomas Burton is #6 and #7, and Walter Numlee [sic] is #44. Looks better that this is the right group of folks in the right place. If your Hatcher person needs Hatcher extractions let me know the front name and I'll get them (in the next couple weeks).

Does anyone happen to know for certain who some of the male Daniel descendants are from the Brunswick county, Virginia Daniels? That may be willing to have their DNA tested so they can either start a base line for this Daniel branch of family or possbily match a line that could confirm or squash all reasonable doubt? If any? This would certainly help narrow down a lot of speculation? --------------------------------- Yahoo! Mail goes everywhere you do. Get it on your phone.
Thank you so much for this information, one thing that caught my eye was Brazwell Daniel, A fellow researcher that has worked on the Daniel line thinks that this line may connect to the Frederick county, VA. Daniel's through the Brazwell, Brauzell also spelled many other different ways. It seems this family of Brazwell was always around the Daniels in Frederick? Early Frederick and surrounding counties. Marleen Van Horne <[email protected]> wrote: Vicki, I am making an educated guess, but many of the folks mentioned in your message are probably colatteral relations to my Dew, Thomas and Barnes ancestors from Edgecombe County, North Carolina. The book, The Descendats of Thomas Dew, by Ernestine White May answer manyy of your questions. On page 182, it says: Elizabeth Farmer, daughter of Arthur Dew Sr., was married to Benjamin Farmer, who was a Revolutionary War soldier and is honored by a granite marker in Wilson, North Carolina. He made his will March 16, 1825, and it was probated in February Court, 1827 1. Elizabeth Farmer, wife 2. William Farmer, son 3. Braswell Farmer, son 4. Absalom Farmer, son 5. Dew Farmer, son 6. Jacob Farmer, son 7. Arthur Dew Farmer, son 8. William Dew Farmer, son 9. Sarah Hollowell, daughter 10. Odedience White, daughter 11. Nancy Dew, daughter (She married Jonathan Dew.) 12. Elizabeth Amason, daughter 13. A daughter who married John Barnes, deceased. This list covers many of the names in the Thomas Daniel estate. Perhaps Sally Farmer was a sister of Benjamin Farmer. This book is available on CD from abebooks.com, but unless you have a great interest in the Dews, there are only a couple of pages on the Farmers, and there is no Thomas Daniel in the index, but it looks as if the above family were mentioned in the estate.

Marmaduke Daniel, the notorious Mississippi Freebooter, was not part Indian. He married Nanny Still who was perhaps 1/2 Native American "Cherokee" and settled in the Cherokee Nation East in NC. He was not involved in any massacres as far as the available records show. We have not absolutely identified the parentage of this Marmaduke who is one of several confusing Marmadukes? Thanks for the suggestion Doyle this is a worthwhile study. http://paynedaniel.com Daniel Cherokees including Marmaduke and Nanny.

Roger Daniell with two "lls" came from England but he settled in Warwick County, Va., not Isle of Wight, unless you have another Roger in mind? Roger Daniell had a son William born in 1632 who married a Sarah. I am not aware of a NC Roger Daniel early on so perhaps you can clarify this for me with some dates. I do believe that Roger Daniell may have spent some time in York in 1745 before he moved down the road to Isle of Wight. Always eager to learn something new.

OK, send me a copy of the will for Tobias the husband of Jane Lanier. There are some minor inaccuracies in Wayne Lanier's work but I believe he acknowledges that and shows opposing views.

Anne, In those SCHWANNER/SWANNER records, I found it interesting that one person changed his name. Did you see that? When someone decides to change a name from the birth name, that sure makes it difficult to put a lineage together. To realize that Robert (Lanier?) DANIEL was made guardian...well, it seems likely your line should connect to this DANIEL line...but then, I am late in working on these families.

Hi, Robert, I'm going to _weakly_ suggest it could the William Daniel who eventually is cut into Elbert Co, based only on finding a tiny mention of a couple of the other names in your deed there. However, I don't know more on who this particular William Daniel is and can get way off in the ozone trying to i.d. him further. Here's the tiny connection: LDS film #209574 GA Elbert Miscellaneous probate records, 1791-1808 Book B-130, a huge estate starts on p.123. estate of Daniel Garvin. notes due: JOHN DANIEL $8.00 appraisal taken 23 March 1804 [sic, but this is a typescript], dated 23 Mar 1803 [sic, but this is a typescript], reg 24 Jun 1805, appraisers: Thomas Jones, THOMAS BURTON, WAT NUNELER [sic]. You can see I'm just making a possible leap to Elbert because the Nunnelee, Burton, and then this next is a William Daniel in Elbert around the same time and remotely named with the John Daniel. However, there are also Wilkes estate papers for a William Daniel in 1791 (Bk DD-72, I don't have) and a William Daniel in 1800. I put more on the Nathan Childs and the Rutherford NC connection, to see if it leads back to anything that others can help with. Book B-157 appraisal of estate of Nathan Childs, 5 Nov 1804, reg 1 Jul 1805, one bond on WILLIAM DANIEL, out of date, $000.00 Book C-8 sale estate Nathan Childs 4 Oct 1805 [there are other lists for different dates]: JOHN DANIEL, one cow and calf $12.18 3/4 Book C-102 1805 est Nathan Childs, acct of Littleton Johnson lists: September, "to my expenses going to Rutherford County NC in order to collect an old debt due the estate of N. Childs, deceased by David Webb of 26/14 North Currency [sic], which money can not be collected by the insolvency of said Webb". $15.37 1/2 14 Jan 1806, to cash paid AMS. DONNELL, as per receipt $0.70 Back to the tax records: I can't locate McGary Creek, it would help to have that. None of the other names in the deed appear still attached with a Daniel in the Wilkes Tax Lists of 1785-1805, i.e. as original grantee or a neighbor, etc. No doubt they appear independently, but I only took entries with a Daniel mention [from Wilkes County GA Tax Records 1785-1805, v.1-2 by Frank Parker Hudson 1996]. But there is a Hatcher named in this next, encouraging. In 1786 the William Daniel who is in the district eventually cut into Elbert has 1495 acres in Wilkes and 9 slaves and 250 acres in Franklin; in 1787 he has 1700 acres and 9 slaves. He is in the district labeled AAA by the author, defined as: AAA=Located in fork of Broad and Savannah River. Until part of BBB was taken in 1786, AAA stretched to the north along Coldwater Creek. Included town of Petersburg. Dec 1790 - entire district put into Elbert. The rank and arrangement for Elbert in Jun 1791 named CAPT HATCHER as commander of this the 1st District of Elbert described: "Beginning at the mouth of Broad River, thence to Bertram's Creek, thence up said creek to Allen's Road, thence along said road to Beaverdam [author inserts (Creek)], thence down the Beaverdam to Savannah River, thence to the beginning." 1790 - encompassed all of 192nd plus eastern edge of 190th in Elbert today. In 1790 William Daniel is named in District CCC with only 630 acres and 8 slaves. This district was cut from BBB which was cut from AAA, all eventually Elbert. CCC is defined as: CCC = First appears 1787. Residents had previously made returns in BBB. William Allen, the only person in this district returning stock in trade in 1790, is found as Capt of 12th Co of Elbert Co Militia Jun 1791, when boundaries were described as: "Beginning at the mouth of Coldwater Ck, running down the Savannah River to the corner of District No. 1 [author inserts (AAA)] at the mouth of Beaverdam, up the said Beaverdam to Cunningham's Road, thence along said road to Coldwater Creek, thence down said creek to the beginning." Area appears to be the now 195th and 196th of Elbert encompassing the community of Ruckersville. I don't have any good handle on all the different Daniel families in this area so I can't i.d. this William of Elbert much more, if he's even the correct one! I have a note that a William Daniel of Elbert sells 287.5a in Franklin on Tugalo Rv, Eastonalla Ck, granted to him, signed by Wm and Anne Daniel, written 22 Jul 1795, recd 16 Oct 1797. Then I get confused about how much and when to let the Wilkes and Washington records cross-over: a William Daniell was granted 287.5a as Citizen Bounty on 3 Oct 1785 (from Washington Co, GA Land Warrants, 1784-1787 by Mary Bondurant Warren and Jack Moreland Jones). If the William Daniel your correspondent is searching turns out to be in early Washington, it's a whole new ball game as far as identifying him. And I posted some other stuff from Elbert a while back, here's the parts that include a William Daniel, again from that Elbert probate film above, Diane is the pro on these guys: "The Old Book B" BK B p.1-3, 11 Dec 1795 sales acct est John Rogers Esq. decd. buyers: lots of Rogers throughout: James, Thomas, Nancy, Thomas, Benj, Mary; also Solomon Strickland, Wm. Chapman, Thos Brown, Randolph Holbrooks, John H. Johnston, Andrew Hemphill, Stephen Groves, WM. DANIEL (one lot of cattle, $26.00), Thomas Thomas, Wm. Carter, Jno Coil, David McCleskey, Francis Guttery, Henry Strickland, William Stroder, Henry Myers, John Johnson, William Davis, Stephen Stephens, Lewis Green, David Vineyard, Wm Carter, WM DANIEL (one gun $6.25), Negro Ben (one saddle $2.00), Stephen Young, ALLAN DANIEL (one lot of pewter $2.75), Thomas Barrow, James Ware, Samuel Nelson, David Robertson, John McDoniel, William Kellet, Thos Barron/Barren [I didn't put repeats of names, several of these are]. returned by James Rogers admr. recd 27 Jul 1796. [There are other cites for John Daniel in these probate records in 1795 and then in 1800s, don't know if he's related or a distinct line. He's in the same place at the same time, in some of the same or related records as William, but no direct transactions between the two that I have found.] Good luck to your correspondent, Pam in CA Robert Daniell wrote: > Hi, All. > > A HATCHER researcher asked me to post this to the list to try to > discover who this William DANIEL may be.

My great grandmother was Martha Elizabeth Swanner b. 1862 KY dau. Of Enoch Gray Swanner b. 28 Dec 1828 (according to several census he was born in TN) who was the son of James Swanner b.1790 Martin Co., NC. James married 2 times....1st to Anna Cherry in 1816 in Beaufort Co., NC and 2nd to Cynthia Ann Daniel 5 Mar 1838 Marshall Co., TN. I do not know which of these wives was the Mother of my great great grandfather, Enoch Gray Swanner. My grandfather, Edwin Grey Cope, was the son of Martha Elizabeth "Mattie" Swanner who married Rynard Justus Cope. My father was Edwin Glass Cope and my full name is Anne Grey Cope Hart. As you can see the GRAY/GREY name has been handed down through the years. I want to know where the Green and Gray names come from and which wife was my great great great grandmother. -----Original Message----- From: Audrey Pool [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, April 20, 2006 10:42 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [DANIEL-L] Connection between DANIEL/GRAY/SWANNER FAMILIES from NC/TN/MO Anne, I see GRAYS and GREENS where the DANIELS are in those two NC counties.
