Still searching VA Archives for original source which was way more descriptive. There were other raids and massacres from the get-go, but the first MAJOR hostile Indian raid and massacre was in 1622 in Jamestown - over 400 people were killed. The second MAJOR hostile Indian raid was in 1644 during the first ten year (1640-1650) tenure of Lord William Berkeley, Governor. It was sudden and swift, and hundreds were killed, a number of them gathered at Berkeley's plantation for a meeting, and which would have been the one during which the (Nansemond) DANIEL plantation owner and his young son were killed. Hundreds, up and down the river, were killed. Whether this DANIEL was a Huguenot is debatable, since records show the first Huguenots coming into VA about 1675, too late for this massacred DANIEL planter's arrival. The main groups of them came into the Manakintown/Nansemond area after 1700 (mine came in 1703), and that the name DANIEL is listed among them could have been that his descendant(s) were already established there and were neighbors (or married a Huguenot woman). OR -- is this our elusive Christopher??? Don't know - can't guess - but there was definitely a DANIEL there in 1644.

There are many William's. The first Daniel immigrant (Roger) came to American ca. 1626 from England. He settled in N.C. but later moved to Va. (Isle of Wight). From there the migration started. Some stayed in Va. some went to N.C. and some to Tenn. As land opened up the family followed.

Audrey, The book shows that Jean Lanier b. 1696 Surry Co., VA, daughter of Robert Lanier and Sarah Barker, married an unknown. No, unfortunately, the Swanner/Schwanner name is not listed in the book.

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.

Can someone tell me how this Daniel family connects through the Farmer family? Who was this Thomas Daniel's father? I find a William Daniel with wife Massie? Who had a daughter Jane Farmer living with them in Shenadoah county, VA. on the census. Notes from the Estate Papers of William D. FARMER (died c. 1834): 1853: Nov Ct.: Petition of Elizabeth Amason (sic), Beedy White, Isaac D. Farmer, Wm. D. Farmer, John R. Farmer, Wm. B. Farmer, Dew Farmer, Arthur Farmer, Silas Hollowell in right of wife, Sally, Jonathon Farmer, Joseph Farmer, Martin Pittman in right of his wife Anha, Henry Farmer, Martha Dobbs, Stokely A. Robinson by right of his wife, Elisabeth, John D. Farmer, Thomas Daniel, in right of his wife, Sally, Elizabeth Amason Jr., Beedy Deans, Dempsey Barnes, Nancy Calhoun, William F. Dew, Johnathon Dew, Albert Farmer in right of his wife Nancy, Jethro Harrison, Christiana Harrison vs. Larry D. Farmer Notes from petition: Wm. D. Farmer died in 1834 intestate. Frederick Robbins was assigned as executor of his estate. Frederick Robbins died before administration of William D. Farmer's estate was complete. Administration of William D. Farmer's estate was then assigned in Nov 1852 to Larry D. Farmer. Wm. D. Farmer left as next of kin, his mother, Elizabeth Farmer, who has since died leaving a last will and testament nominating Larry D. Farmer executor and will was proven Nov 1852 by same. --------------------------------- Yahoo! Messenger with Voice. PC-to-Phone calls for ridiculously low rates.

I have the SWANNER/DANIEL line and yes, I did see the postage. I have Mathias Tobias Swanner's will and a book on his descendants. I just can't find anything on the parents or siblings of Cynthia Ann Daniel (b. 1810 TN d. bet. 1855-1860 MO) who married James Swanner (b. 1790 Martin Co., NC d. Scott Co., MO 1842). Cynthia and James married in Marshall County, TN 5 Mar 1838. They had a son, Marshall Green Swanner (b. 1834 according to census in NC and d. Pemiscott County, MO in 1899) James Swanner's son, Enoch Gray Swanner, is my great great grandfather and I am trying to verify which of James Swanner's wives was his mother. James was 1st mar. to Anna Cherry in NC 1815/1816 in Beaufort County. My middle name is Grey as was my grandfathers. I am trying to find the connection among the DANIEL/SWANNER/GRAY families.
