Hi again, John. Our 7 DANIEL folk who are searching for Edward Daniel, Sr. have all the info that Vickie sent plus lots more from Tennessee. Also, my direct line and grandfather, great-grandfather and great-great-grandfather were in Tennessee, and settled in Kentucky and Illinois where I was born. My great-great-grandfather and wife are buried in Kentucky near where I live but they were in Tennessee originally. My great-grandfather and grandfather are also born in Pulaski County, Illinois where I was born. In our present Daniel/Daniels families a 4th cousin has done DNA for 12, 14, 37 markers and matched with 10 other DNA testers. My nephew, Michael Daniels (my grandfather added the s to our name) son of my deceased brother, Ray Daniels, recently took the 12 marker DNA and we haven't received the results yet. We believe we will learn more from these Daniel male DNA tests than we can ever find on the internet! I am also going to do the female Daniel DNA test although it won't be as informative as it is for the male because of the wives whose lines muddy the waters, however whatever I learn would be fine with me. Please do go to Denny Brubaker's site and ask for his list of DANIEL and Mayes. You will see the Mayes and Daniel that Vickie has written about. I do suppose that it wouldn't be very interesting to you since your lines were in Georgia and other areas that our lines don't include and obviously don't connect with your line in any way. Good luck in your search! Evelyn

Vivki, The GRANGE and the HOWE family were long associated with the DANIEL family of Charleston. I do not make these assignments, I only keep a record of them and not necessarily that I agree with them. The GRANGE family was of Charleston, descendants of John GRANGE and UNK who later moved to the Cape Fear area of NC. He had two daughters that I know of, Sarah GRANGE born by 1730 who married General Robert HOWE of Brunswick County, NC and Anna born ABT 1734 who married Judge Maurice MOORE of Wilmington, New Hanover County, North Carolina. They also had a brother named, John GRANGE, Jr. and I have no information on him. Generally when I see this name attached to a DANIEL, I think "Charleston DANIEL" for the obvious reasons. Two of the daughters of Gen. Robert HOWE (1732-1786) and Sarah GRANGE married Stephen Bedon DANIEL (ABt 1745-1820) of Brunswick County, NC - Rebecca HOWE in 1764 and her sister, Anne Goodlet HOWE in 1769. The John DANIEL you reference as marrying a Hannah GRANGE was the son of Stephen Bedon DANIEL and Anne Goodlet HOWE and they were married on 27 Jan 1807 in Brunswick County, NC and that is a fact. Feel free to go to the Brunswick County, NC website because that marriage is there for anyone to see. The URL for that website is: http://www.rootsweb.com/~ncbrunsw/brunswick.htm Feel free to differ with me at any time. I have no problem with that because I differ quite often with others, as Payne and Jack will attest. I also know there were HARRELLS in and around eastern NC around a lot of the families we see out of IOW County, VA. Your MAYS may be MAY and there were lots of them around this whole bunch. The NORFLEETS, COTTONS and RHODES were also there. These are not Henry County, VA folks but may have moved there, later, from IOW, Brunswick, Surry or even eastern NC. . I am also getting information that some of these eastern NC folks (the WILLSONS) moved to TN and then KY, especially Trigg and Christian County, KY. The BRETTS were folks around Lucy GRAY's DANIEL folks and these folks moved to GA. Lucy says there is some indication they moved to TN, first, and then to GA. Jefferson County, GA is the home place of these BRETS, along with some that went to Jackson County, FL with Lucy's bunch. We also know from which DANIEL family that Lucy's folks descend -- the IOW DANIEL family and this is probably my bunch, too, but I will not know for sure for about eight more weeks. The one family that had Edward as a key given name that is around this bunch is the BRYANS, there may be others. If there has been one DANIEL family that I have concentrated on through the years, is the Charleston bunch. The reason I have concentrated on this family is because I have so many Charleston links in my overall bunch that connect in various ways to the Charleston bunch. The only name in your bunch that I know is that of a George LUMPKIN. I carry a George (1788-1858) the son of Capt. John H. LUMPKIN and Lucy Elizabeth HOBSON of Wilkes County, GA. They moved there from VA. George LUMPLIN married a CALLOWAY, a DAVIS and a POPE. George's brother was the Wilson LUMPKIN, Esq. (1783-1870) who married Sarah WALKER, d/o Rev. Sanders WALKER and Sarah LAMAR of Oglethorpe County, GA. Wilson LUMPKIN and Sarah lived in Morgan County, GA right next to Key's Ferry on the Old Coach Road to Augusta down near Godfrey. Lumpkin County, GA is named for this Governor Wilson LUMPKIN and he is buried in Athens, GA where he went to live after Sarah died in 1819, after a short stint in Mississippi. The CALLOWAYS, the John CALLOWAY and Bethany ARNOLD line of Wilkes County, GA, were all tied up with the LUMPKINS. FYI, Edward is also a big name in the CALLOWAY family. They migrated from MD to eastern NC and then split up with some going into north GA (the John and Job CALLOWAY lines) and some going into middle GA, the Elijah CALLOWAY line, but they were all children of Edward CALLOWAY (1711-1789) and Elizabeth LNU of Onslow County, NC. I wish I could help you more in your research but I cannot. Have you considered DNA testing? That is the only way to tie your bunch back to a common ancestor. However, you need to be real careful to document the person you choose for this testing because there are lots of folks that are not who they portray themselves to be, especially in a line with which you are not personally familiar, like a distant, distant cousin Thank God, we have my cousin Russell DANIEL (my 2C1R) or my DANIEL line would be up that well known tributary without a suitable means of transportation. Normally, I consider a 2C1R to be a distant relative but in genealogy, that is close. In Russ's case, his GGF was my Grand Uncle and his genealogy is all documented. His grandfather was also in the newspaper business, so we have other things in common. John R.

I beg to differ on your take of our Daniel and Mayes bunch, Henry county, VA. Henry Mayes and his wife Phoebe Harrell were there, much is documented on this line, most of all of Edwards children married children of Henry Mays, Sherrod Mays, etc. My Martha Mayes married William Daniel son of Edward Daniel in Grainger county, TN. 1821. Also the John Daniel that married Hannah Grainge is a descendant of Edward Daniel, a cousin is working on this line. Sherrod, Goodwin Mayes are also documented along with this Daniel family. They have wills, etc. on Henry Maze. Can you show me where John Daniel and Hannah Grange actually belong ? Some facts that pertain to John Daniel and Hannah Grainge, if so I will gladly contact the family member and clarify or correct the mistake. Not to offend in anyway, but my intention is to get facts not assumptions as to who they belong to. But Henry Mayes and Pheobe Harrell are diffinatly connected to our line, along with the Bridges, Hills, Jeffre! ys, Cottons, Norfleets, Rhodes, etc. Also there is Edward Daniel and Francis Daniel early in TN. church minutes. Vickie "John R. Clarke" <jclarke@rose.net> wrote:Vickie, I think you have a lot of apples and oranges in some of that information, especially that part about John DANIELL and Hannah GRANGE moving to Granger County, TN. Or, the MAYES and DANIEL bunch. Granted, I think the DANIELL information is some of the worst we have but I would tend to think this John and Hannah either stayed around eastern NC or moved to somewhere down in SC or GA. As for the MAYES connection, one of the O'DANIELS out of Fairfax County, VA married a MAYES and Robert DANIELL has not been able to find out what happened to him other than his O'DANIEL girl died in SC. That's one of the problems when you look for specific names, there were lots of folks that had the same names in this period because they did not use a lot of different given names. So, it has been real easy for some researchers to grab on to the first Thomas DANIEL they find and say that was their ancestor -- if some will or deeds lists their known ancestor as a son of a Thomas DANIEL. However, that Thomas DANIEL could have been a Thomas DONNEL., Thomas DANIELLY or even a Thomas McDONALD. This is why I try to find the surnames that are collateral with my bunch in a certain area and then look for a blend of those same surnames in the area they moved to later. What I do is work, backwards. First, in my example, I took my known DANIEL bunch in Jefferson County, GA and I have developed all of their collaterals, who they married, where these folks came from and who were the ancestors of their collaterals and where they came from.. In other words, I know most everybody around or even remotely close to my DANIEL family in Burke and Jefferson County, GA. From this I have been able to develop not only a profile of my bunch but also a flavor as to the migration path each of these families took to reach Burke and later, Jefferson County, GA. However, I am dependent, to some degree, on the accuracy of the information researched by others and some of this information stinks. One of these is the TARVER information that has come out of Burke and Jefferson County, GA. I would not trust one scrap of information from this family. There are others, too. One of the things that I know about my Robert C. DANIEL (ABT 1764-AFT 1830) of Burke County, GA is that he or his wife had to come from a rather wealthy family because he hit Burke County, GA with more than pocket change. Considering that most of these families always seemed to find a way to have 10 or more chillen and Robert hit Burke with 10 slaves then he had to come from a family that had, at the very least, 50 or more slaves. I base this on an equal distribution of males and females in his family, meaning their were five boys and five girls and each of the boys got an equal distribution of the estate of their parents. However, his slaves could have come from the estate of his wife's parents, that I do not know. Or, they could have been a equal distribution from both his family and her family or he could have been an only child but I tend to discount this. Regardless, I think the least number of deductions that I must make in this matter is probably the simplest answer -- they came from his family. Since this Robert DANIEL was probably not the oldest boy in his family, he probably did not get a lion's share of his father's estate and over time the few slaves he got from his family could well be represented by the 10 slaves he had in 1820, when he was about age 50-55. It is not just sufficient to chase the given names in a certain family but you must also always chase the money, like the accountants say. So, I know that Robert C. DANIEL of Burke came from a good family, maybe not exactly landed gentry, but somewhere near this lofty group. He also seems to have married well since Isam LANE owned ABT 2,000 acres of land in Greene and Wayne County, NC when he died but I also know that his son, John LANE, got most of this land and not Robert's wife, Penelope LANE. I also know that his chillen in Burke tended to marry folks who either came down with them from NC or were related to folks they knew or were collateral with back in NC. His and Penelope's kids also tended to do well in their new location (s) and most of their kids families were worth in the 20K range by 1860 and this was not peanuts. I do get the feeling that these DANIELS did not make their fortunes off the backs of others and that slavery engaged agriculture was not one of their main pursuits. However, I do know they owned slaves but not in the proportions of others of their station in the same area. Also, some were Baptist and some were Methodist and the difference may have been due to who they married and not because of some ideological difference in religious doctrine between these two religions. This is kind of what you have to do with your family or with any family you research because if you do not know them, you will never be able to put them all together. I get hundreds of emails each day but only a few grab my attention. They do not do it by the specific names listed in that post but by the blend of names in that post combined with a specific location in a specific time frame. In the course of the last 15 years I have written hundreds of folks about their DANIEL ancestors and I have gotten hundreds of emails back saying their family was in no way related to my family. This is to be expected, not because my assessment was not correct, but because they did not know their family as well as they thought they did. So, just hang in there and one day we will all see the light and find out the answers to the many questions we have about our specific DANIEL bunch. John R.

EDWARD DANIEL - all information The York County, Va Daniell are descendants of the FIRST FOUR Daniell in Colony of Va. who came from Bristol England area. Somersetshire & Wiltshire branches of the family. Roger - John - Edward - Thomas There are also three other Daniell emigrants - Daniell, Henry, & Walter Colonel Peter Daniel, of Crow's Nest, mentioned as one of the neighbors of George Mason, of historic Gunston Hall, becoming the property of Edward Daniels. Gunston Hall was partially restored by Edward. It is one of the best types of Virginia colonial mansions. Peter, s/o James, s/o Charles, s/o James, the first ancestor - See complete article under Peter - Ancestry and Probable Origin of the Daniell Family of York, VA by Worth Stickley Ray - BK 929.273 D227r 27 Jul 1635 - Edward Daniell & Richard Cary came to Va. on the "Primrose" embarking at Gravesend, England with Capt. Douglass, Master. The Cary & Daniell families related. See Henry Daniell Note: Richard Cary was s/o Christopher Cary, of Bristol, England. He had a brother, John Cary and sister who married Henry Daniell, of Bristol, as shown by an indenture of Christopher Daniell and his wife Margaret, which appears in Waters "Gleanings", in which he states, "my two sons, Richard & John Cary, and my son-in-law, Henry Daniell, dated 1672. The probability that this Henry Daniell & Edward, Roger & John being related, are very strong. Note: Christopher Cary, s/o Christopher Cary, ca 1568-1626, married Lettice Young, was a merchant & Sheriff of Bristol, Eng. He was brother of William Cary (actually ½ bro.) who M: Goodall and had Miles Cary, the emigrant & kinsman of Roger Daniell. "Virginia Carys"p.15-20 Note: Article on Richard Cary, "Virginia Carys", p. 146: " on July 27, 1635, a number of young men bound for Va on the ship Primrose, Capt. Douglass, took the oaths of allegiance & supremacy at Gravesend. Among them was Richard Cary aged 17. He may well have been the same Richard Cary who, on October 13, 1653, patented 1350acres of land in Gloucester Co., VA. In 1662 this last named Richard joined one George Seaton in taking out a patent to 6,000 acres on the Potomac, in Westmoreland Co.,(later Stafford) not far from the 3000 acres which Miles Cary of Warwick had patented in the same county in 1654. He left a will dated Nov. 29, 1682, in which he named tow sons, Richard & John. (The will is lost in the Gloucester recds, but a recital in a deed in 1759. See Virginia Magazine II, page 280 - This Richard Cary could be ancestor of Hugh Cary, administrator of Hugh Ballentine, who sued James Daniel & wife Elizabeth in Goochland, in 1735, as shown by Judge Newman's acct of the Daniel Fam. - Va. Mag. XII, p. 253 - Notes Relating to connection of the Daniell & Cary Fam. by Worth Stickley Ray, 929.273 D227r June 1636 - John Neale, a well known figure on the early records of Accomac Co., VA, appears to have made the first claim to having transported Edward Daniell to the Colony, when he patented 1500a of land on the "Eastern Shore" on this date. (Nugent, p. 43) Among many others claimed at the same time as his headrights were, Thomas Adams, William Pearce, Ann Prosser and Henry Robinson. In the early records of the Daniell family of King & Queen and Carolina, the name of John Prosser frequently occurs as a close associate and neighbor. Two years later on May 10, 1638, the well known resident of the "Eastern Shore", Stephen Charlton, took out a certificate for 1000 acres in Accomac and among the headrights he claimed to own, were Thomas Bell, John Robinson, Edward Daniell and others. William Daniell, bro. of John Daniell of York, VA has a son Alexander Daniell, whose daughter, Elizabeth married Elias Bell. (Nugent, p. 82, for Charleton's patent) It was not until, 8, Oct 1644, after Edward Daniell had been in the colony nearly ten years, that he was used as a headright by Edwin Conway, when he patented his 500a in Northampton, Va, at Hungar's Creek and claimed he had transported to VA, among several others mentioned, Francis Harrison, William Burrell, John Powell and Edward Daniell. This clearly shows that Edward Daniell appeared in VA about the same time as Roger, John, Walter and Henry Daniell. This Edward Daniell settled in Accomac and in Northampton, VA for two years after Neale's patent in 1636. His name appears on the Accomac Co., records as a witness in a dispute between Stephen Charleton and others. (Fleet's VA Abstracts, Vol. 32, p. 61 & 62) In between the several times his name was used as a headright, he may have travel out of the country, selling his headright in each instance, to which he was entitled, to the next person who used it. It is believed that Edward may have went to Maryland; that the Bates and other influences drew him into the Quakers. This has never been proven. He may have been the father of William, who was living in Somerset Co., Maryland, between 1666 & 1700 and that the relationship between William Stone, Governor of Maryland (from Northampton, Va) and his family, accounts for the Daniell Family of Prince George and Charles, Maryland, shown on the Maryland Records. Old Somerset, p. 465 In Torrence's Old Somerset, Anguish Morrow, of Dorset County, MD, married Rose Daniell, of Somerset Co., MD, in 1676 and Edward Evans married Mary Daniell, in Somerset, on May 22, 1677. Worth Stickley Ray, writer of this compilation, is a descendant from Armstrong Morrow, who married Margaret Daniell. While the Morrows, Daniell, and Rays, intermarried for many generations, the above record (Old Somerset, p. 401) is the first such authentic record found that far back. That Mary and Rose Daniell, were daughters of William Daniell, son of Edward Daniell, the emigrant, is not improbable.

I thought I would pass this on for comments. This may be some indication as to what happened to the WILLSONS of Tyrrell and Duplin, as well as some of the DANIEL folks from that area. I think she meant KY and not TN. <<< In Christian/Trigg Co I found a Elijah Daniel's estate, very large for that period in TN. Two of the buyers were Joel and Wylie Wilson who according to the local history had been early arrivals with a William Wilson. There are lots of families in that area from northern NC and I'm sure also from VA. >>> John R. Clarke Thomasville, GA

I agree with you on the DNA testing, so far we have had three matches and all are connected to Edward and Basil Daniel. Joe Daniel a descendant of Edward Daniel has tested, James Herman Daniel a descendant of John Daniel who married Mary Anna Jeffreys in 1842 Grainger county, TN. and they gave birth to my Rachell Evaline Daniel, has tested and once again matched BAsil and Edward DAniel. Also another descendant of Basil Daniel tested and matched Edward, now we have evelyn's family testing and Joe has updated his to a 37 marker test to see if that can help in anyway. So we do diffinatley match Edward and his descendants based on the DNA site. I am not trying to argue or be abrupt in any manner, just going by facts. Vic

I do know that the Jeffreys , Osborn Jeffreys and Marmaduke Daniel were from Franklin county, NC. Bute . Marmaduke migrated to TN. Grainger county and left Tn. and settled in Kentucky, The Hills, Sion Hill and others Peidmont area, also TN. Green Hill Jr. and Nancy Thomas, JOrdon Hill, Franklin, NC. and surrounding area. The Hills were IOW family lines. and some migrated on to Ark. then to Oklahoma. So far I cannot place any of my Daniel line is Georgia. "John R.

The John DANIEL you reference as marrying a Hannah GRANGE was the son of Stephen Bedon DANIEL and Anne Goodlet HOWE and they were married on 27 Jan 1807 in Brunswick County, NC and that is a fact.

I have no problem with that because I differ quite often with others, as Payne and Jack will attest. I also know there were HARRELLS in and around eastern NC around a lot of the families we see out of IOW County, VA. Your MAYS may be MAY and there were lots of them around this whole bunch. The NORFLEETS, COTTONS and RHODES were also there. These are not Henry County, VA folks but may have moved there, later, from IOW, Brunswick, Surry or even eastern NC. . I am also getting information that some of these eastern NC folks (the WILLSONS) moved to TN and then KY, especially Trigg and Christian County, KY. The BRETTS were folks around Lucy GRAY's DANIEL folks and these folks moved to GA. Lucy says there is some indication they moved to TN, first, and then to GA. Jefferson County, GA is the home place of these BRETS, along with some that went to Jackson County, FL with Lucy's bunch. We also know from which DANIEL family that Lucy's folks descend -- the IOW DANIEL family and this is probably my bunch, too, but I will not know for sure for about eight more weeks. The one family that had Edward as a key given name that is around this bunch is the BRYANS, there may be others. If there has been one DANIEL family that I have concentrated on through the years, is the Charleston bunch. The reason I have concentrated on this family is because I have so many Charleston links in my overall bunch that connect in various ways to the Charleston bunch. The only name in your bunch that I know is that of a George LUMPKIN. I carry a George (1788-1858) the son of Capt. John H. LUMPKIN and Lucy Elizabeth HOBSON of Wilkes County, GA. They moved there from VA. George LUMPLIN married a CALLOWAY, a DAVIS and a POPE. George's brother was the Wilson LUMPKIN, Esq. (1783-1870) who married Sarah WALKER, d/o Rev. Sanders WALKER and Sarah LAMAR of Oglethorpe County, GA. Wilson LUMPKIN and Sarah lived in Morgan County, GA right next to Key's Ferry on the Old Coach Road to Augusta down near Godfrey. Lumpkin County, GA is named for this Governor Wilson LUMPKIN and he is buried in Athens, GA where he went to live after Sarah died in 1819, after a short stint in Mississippi. The CALLOWAYS, the John CALLOWAY and Bethany ARNOLD line of Wilkes County, GA, were all tied up with the LUMPKINS. FYI, Edward is also a big name in the CALLOWAY family. They migrated from MD to eastern NC and then split up with some going into north GA (the John and Job CALLOWAY lines) and some going into middle GA, the Elijah CALLOWAY line, but they were all children of Edward CALLOWAY (1711-1789) and Elizabeth LNU of Onslow County, NC. I wish I could help you more in your research but I cannot. Have you considered DNA testing? That is the only way to tie your bunch back to a common ancestor. However, you need to be real careful to document the person you choose for this testing because there are lots of folks that are not who they portray themselves to be, especially in a line with which you are not personally familiar, like a distant, distant cousin Thank God, we have my cousin Russell DANIEL (my 2C1R) or my DANIEL line would be up that well known tributary without a suitable means of transportation.

As for the MAYES connection, one of the O'DANIELS out of Fairfax County, VA married a MAYES and Robert DANIELL has not been able to find out what happened to him other than his O'DANIEL girl died in SC. That's one of the problems when you look for specific names, there were lots of folks that had the same names in this period because they did not use a lot of different given names. So, it has been real easy for some researchers to grab on to the first Thomas DANIEL they find and say that was their ancestor -- if some will or deeds lists their known ancestor as a son of a Thomas DANIEL. However, that Thomas DANIEL could have been a Thomas DONNEL., Thomas DANIELLY or even a Thomas McDONALD. This is why I try to find the surnames that are collateral with my bunch in a certain area and then look for a blend of those same surnames in the area they moved to later. What I do is work, backwards. First, in my example, I took my known DANIEL bunch in Jefferson County, GA and I have developed all of their collaterals, who they married, where these folks came from and who were the ancestors of their collaterals and where they came from.. In other words, I know most everybody around or even remotely close to my DANIEL family in Burke and Jefferson County, GA. From this I have been able to develop not only a profile of my bunch but also a flavor as to the migration path each of these families took to reach Burke and later, Jefferson County, GA. However, I am dependent, to some degree, on the accuracy of the information researched by others and some of this information stinks. One of these is the TARVER information that has come out of Burke and Jefferson County, GA. I would not trust one scrap of information from this family. There are others, too. One of the things that I know about my Robert C. DANIEL (ABT 1764-AFT 1830) of Burke County, GA is that he or his wife had to come from a rather wealthy family because he hit Burke County, GA with more than pocket change. Considering that most of these families always seemed to find a way to have 10 or more chillen and Robert hit Burke with 10 slaves then he had to come from a family that had, at the very least, 50 or more slaves. I base this on an equal distribution of males and females in his family, meaning their were five boys and five girls and each of the boys got an equal distribution of the estate of their parents. However, his slaves could have come from the estate of his wife's parents, that I do not know. Or, they could have been a equal distribution from both his family and her family or he could have been an only child but I tend to discount this. Regardless, I think the least number of deductions that I must make in this matter is probably the simplest answer -- they came from his family. Since this Robert DANIEL was probably not the oldest boy in his family, he probably did not get a lion's share of his father's estate and over time the few slaves he got from his family could well be represented by the 10 slaves he had in 1820, when he was about age 50-55. It is not just sufficient to chase the given names in a certain family but you must also always chase the money, like the accountants say. So, I know that Robert C. DANIEL of Burke came from a good family, maybe not exactly landed gentry, but somewhere near this lofty group. He also seems to have married well since Isam LANE owned ABT 2,000 acres of land in Greene and Wayne County, NC when he died but I also know that his son, John LANE, got most of this land and not Robert's wife, Penelope LANE. I also know that his chillen in Burke tended to marry folks who either came down with them from NC or were related to folks they knew or were collateral with back in NC. His and Penelope's kids also tended to do well in their new location (s) and most of their kids families were worth in the 20K range by 1860 and this was not peanuts. I do get the feeling that these DANIELS did not make their fortunes off the backs of others and that slavery engaged agriculture was not one of their main pursuits. However, I do know they owned slaves but not in the proportions of others of their station in the same area. Also, some were Baptist and some were Methodist and the difference may have been due to who they married and not because of some ideological difference in religious doctrine between these two religions. This is kind of what you have to do with your family or with any family you research because if you do not know them, you will never be able to put them all together. I get hundreds of emails each day but only a few grab my attention. They do not do it by the specific names listed in that post but by the blend of names in that post combined with a specific location in a specific time frame. In the course of the last 15 years I have written hundreds of folks about their DANIEL ancestors and I have gotten hundreds of emails back saying their family was in no way related to my family. This is to be expected, not because my assessment was not correct, but because they did not know their family as well as they thought they did. So, just hang in there and one day we will all see the light and find out the answers to the many questions we have about our specific DANIEL bunch. John R.

EDWARD DANIEL - all information The York County, Va Daniell are descendants of the FIRST FOUR Daniell in Colony of Va. who came from Bristol England area. Somersetshire & Wiltshire branches of the family. Roger - John - Edward - Thomas There are also three other Daniell emigrants - Daniell, Henry, & Walter Colonel Peter Daniel, of Crow's Nest, mentioned as one of the neighbors of George Mason, of historic Gunston Hall, becoming the property of Edward Daniels. Gunston Hall was partially restored by Edward. It is one of the best types of Virginia colonial mansions. Peter, s/o James, s/o Charles, s/o James, the first ancestor - See complete article under Peter - Ancestry and Probable Origin of the Daniell Family of York, VA by Worth Stickley Ray - BK 929.273 D227r 27 Jul 1635 - Edward Daniell & Richard Cary came to Va. on the "Primrose" embarking at Gravesend, England with Capt. Douglass, Master. The Cary & Daniell families related. See Henry Daniell Note: Richard Cary was s/o Christopher Cary, of Bristol, England. He had a brother, John Cary and sister who married Henry Daniell, of Bristol, as shown by an indenture of Christopher Daniell and his wife Margaret, which appears in Waters "Gleanings", in which he states, "my two sons, Richard & John Cary, and my son-in-law, Henry Daniell, dated 1672. The probability that this Henry Daniell & Edward, Roger & John being related, are very strong. Note: Christopher Cary, s/o Christopher Cary, ca 1568-1626, married Lettice Young, was a merchant & Sheriff of Bristol, Eng. He was brother of William Cary (actually � bro.) who M: Goodall and had Miles Cary, the emigrant & kinsman of Roger Daniell. "Virginia Carys"p.15-20 Note: Article on Richard Cary, "Virginia Carys", p. 146: " on July 27, 1635, a number of young men bound for Va on the ship Primrose, Capt. Douglass, took the oaths of allegiance & supremacy at Gravesend. Among them was Richard Cary aged 17. He may well have been the same Richard Cary who, on October 13, 1653, patented 1350acres of land in Gloucester Co., VA. In 1662 this last named Richard joined one George Seaton in taking out a patent to 6,000 acres on the Potomac, in Westmoreland Co.,(later Stafford) not far from the 3000 acres which Miles Cary of Warwick had patented in the same county in 1654. He left a will dated Nov. 29, 1682, in which he named tow sons, Richard & John. (The will is lost in the Gloucester recds, but a recital in a deed in 1759. See Virginia Magazine II, page 280 - This Richard Cary could be ancestor of Hugh Cary, administrator of Hugh Ballentine, who sued James Daniel & wife Elizabeth in Goochland, in 1735, as shown by Judge Newman's acct of the Daniel Fam. - Va. Mag. XII, p. 253 - Notes Relating to connection of the Daniell & Cary Fam. by Worth Stickley Ray, 929.273 D227r June 1636 - John Neale, a well known figure on the early records of Accomac Co., VA, appears to have made the first claim to having transported Edward Daniell to the Colony, when he patented 1500a of land on the "Eastern Shore" on this date. (Nugent, p. 43) Among many others claimed at the same time as his headrights were, Thomas Adams, William Pearce, Ann Prosser and Henry Robinson. In the early records of the Daniell family of King & Queen and Carolina, the name of John Prosser frequently occurs as a close associate and neighbor. Two years later on May 10, 1638, the well known resident of the "Eastern Shore", Stephen Charlton, took out a certificate for 1000 acres in Accomac and among the headrights he claimed to own, were Thomas Bell, John Robinson, Edward Daniell and others. William Daniell, bro. of John Daniell of York, VA has a son Alexander Daniell, whose daughter, Elizabeth married Elias Bell. (Nugent, p. 82, for Charleton's patent) It was not until, 8, Oct 1644, after Edward Daniell had been in the colony nearly ten years, that he was used as a headright by Edwin Conway, when he patented his 500a in Northampton, Va, at Hungar's Creek and claimed he had transported to VA, among several others mentioned, Francis Harrison, William Burrell, John Powell and Edward Daniell. This clearly shows that Edward Daniell appeared in VA about the same time as Roger, John, Walter and Henry Daniell. This Edward Daniell settled in Accomac and in Northampton, VA for two years after Neale's patent in 1636. His name appears on the Accomac Co., records as a witness in a dispute between Stephen Charleton and others. (Fleet's VA Abstracts, Vol. 32, p. 61 & 62) In between the several times his name was used as a headright, he may have travel out of the country, selling his headright in each instance, to which he was entitled, to the next person who used it. It is believed that Edward may have went to Maryland; that the Bates and other influences drew him into the Quakers. This has never been proven. He may have been the father of William, who was living in Somerset Co., Maryland, between 1666 & 1700 and that the relationship between William Stone, Governor of Maryland (from Northampton, Va) and his family, accounts for the Daniell Family of Prince George and Charles, Maryland, shown on the Maryland Records. Old Somerset, p. 465 In Torrence's Old Somerset, Anguish Morrow, of Dorset County, MD, married Rose Daniell, of Somerset Co., MD, in 1676 and Edward Evans married Mary Daniell, in Somerset, on May 22, 1677. Worth Stickley Ray, writer of this compilation, is a descendant from Armstrong Morrow, who married Margaret Daniell. While the Morrows, Daniell, and Rays, intermarried for many generations, the above record (Old Somerset, p. 401) is the first such authentic record found that far back. That Mary and Rose Daniell, were daughters of William Daniell, son of Edward Daniell, the emigrant, is not improbable.

Also, some were Baptist and some were Methodist and the difference may have been due to who they married and not because of some ideological difference in religious doctrine between these two religions. This is kind of what you have to do with your family or with any family you research because if you do not know them, you will never be able to put them all together. I get hundreds of emails each day but only a few grab my attention. They do not do it by the specific names listed in that post but by the blend of names in that post combined with a specific location in a specific time frame. In the course of the last 15 years I have written hundreds of folks about their DANIEL ancestors and I have gotten hundreds of emails back saying their family was in no way related to my family. This is to be expected, not because my assessment was not correct, but because they did not know their family as well as they thought they did. So, just hang in there and one day we will all see the light and find out the answers to the many questions we have about our specific DANIEL bunch. John R. Clarke Thomasville, GA ----- Original Message ----- From: "Vickie Lomon" To: Sent: Sunday, April 25, 2004 2:12 AM Subject: [DANIEL-L] Notes on Edward Daniel, Mayo River, deeds, also Brett and Walter Daniel,John Daniels, SR. and JR. enclosed are compiled notes by another researcher working on the Edward Daniel line, I don't know how accurate it is, but I thought I would post it to see if anyone reconizes these families and names. EDWARD DANIEL - all information The York County, Va Daniell are descendants of the FIRST FOUR Daniell in Colony of Va. who came from Bristol England area. Somersetshire & Wiltshire branches of the family. Roger - John - Edward - Thomas There are also three other Daniell emigrants - Daniell, Henry, & Walter Colonel Peter Daniel, of Crow's Nest, mentioned as one of the neighbors of George Mason, of historic Gunston Hall, becoming the property of Edward Daniels. Gunston Hall was partially restored by Edward. It is one of the best types of Virginia colonial mansions. Peter, s/o James, s/o Charles, s/o James, the first ancestor - See complete article under Peter - Ancestry and Probable Origin of the Daniell Family of York, VA by Worth Stickley Ray - BK 929.273 D227r 27 Jul 1635 - Edward Daniell & Richard Cary came to Va. on the "Primrose" embarking at Gravesend, England with Capt. Douglass, Master. The Cary & Daniell families related. See Henry Daniell Note: Richard Cary was s/o Christopher Cary, of Bristol, England. He had a brother, John Cary and sister who married Henry Daniell, of Bristol, as shown by an indenture of Christopher Daniell and his wife Margaret, which appears in Waters "Gleanings", in which he states, "my two sons, Richard & John Cary, and my son-in-law, Henry Daniell, dated 1672. The probability that this Henry Daniell & Edward, Roger & John being related, are very strong. Note: Christopher Cary, s/o Christopher Cary, ca 1568-1626, married Lettice Young, was a merchant & Sheriff of Bristol, Eng. He was brother of William Cary (actually � bro.) who M: Goodall and had Miles Cary, the emigrant & kinsman of Roger Daniell. "Virginia Carys"p.15-20 Note: Article on Richard Cary, "Virginia Carys", p. 146: " on July 27, 1635, a number of young men bound for Va on the ship Primrose, Capt. Douglass, took the oaths of allegiance & supremacy at Gravesend. Among them was Richard Cary aged 17. He may well have been the same Richard Cary who, on October 13, 1653, patented 1350acres of land in Gloucester Co., VA. In 1662 this last named Richard joined one George Seaton in taking out a patent to 6,000 acres on the Potomac, in Westmoreland Co.,(later Stafford) not far from the 3000 acres which Miles Cary of Warwick had patented in the same county in 1654. He left a will dated Nov. 29, 1682, in which he named tow sons, Richard & John. (The will is lost in the Gloucester recds, but a recital in a deed in 1759. See Virginia Magazine II, page 280 - This Richard Cary could be ancestor of Hugh Cary, administrator of Hugh Ballentine, who sued James Daniel & wife Elizabeth in Goochland, in 1735, as shown by Judge Newman's acct of the Daniel Fam. - Va. Mag. XII, p. 253 - Notes Relating to connection of the Daniell & Cary Fam. by Worth Stickley Ray, 929.273 D227r June 1636 - John Neale, a well known figure on the early records of Accomac Co., VA, appears to have made the first claim to having transported Edward Daniell to the Colony, when he patented 1500a of land on the "Eastern Shore" on this date. (Nugent, p. 43) Among many others claimed at the same time as his headrights were, Thomas Adams, William Pearce, Ann Prosser and Henry Robinson. In the early records of the Daniell family of King & Queen and Carolina, the name of John Prosser frequently occurs as a close associate and neighbor. Two years later on May 10, 1638, the well known resident of the "Eastern Shore", Stephen Charlton, took out a certificate for 1000 acres in Accomac and among the headrights he claimed to own, were Thomas Bell, John Robinson, Edward Daniell and others. William Daniell, bro. of John Daniell of York, VA has a son Alexander Daniell, whose daughter, Elizabeth married Elias Bell. (Nugent, p. 82, for Charleton's patent) It was not until, 8, Oct 1644, after Edward Daniell had been in the colony nearly ten years, that he was used as a headright by Edwin Conway, when he patented his 500a in Northampton, Va, at Hungar's Creek and claimed he had transported to VA, among several others mentioned, Francis Harrison, William Burrell, John Powell and Edward Daniell. This clearly shows that Edward Daniell appeared in VA about the same time as Roger, John, Walter and Henry Daniell. This Edward Daniell settled in Accomac and in Northampton, VA for two years after Neale's patent in 1636. His name appears on the Accomac Co., records as a witness in a dispute between Stephen Charleton and others. (Fleet's VA Abstracts, Vol. 32, p. 61 & 62) In between the several times his name was used as a headright, he may have travel out of the country, selling his headright in each instance, to which he was entitled, to the next person who used it. It is believed that Edward may have went to Maryland; that the Bates and other influences drew him into the Quakers. This has never been proven. He may have been the father of William, who was living in Somerset Co., Maryland, between 1666 & 1700 and that the relationship between William Stone, Governor of Maryland (from Northampton, Va) and his family, accounts for the Daniell Family of Prince George and Charles, Maryland, shown on the Maryland Records. Old Somerset, p. 465 In Torrence's Old Somerset, Anguish Morrow, of Dorset County, MD, married Rose Daniell, of Somerset Co., MD, in 1676 and Edward Evans married Mary Daniell, in Somerset, on May 22, 1677. Worth Stickley Ray, writer of this compilation, is a descendant from Armstrong Morrow, who married Margaret Daniell. While the Morrows, Daniell, and Rays, intermarried for many generations, the above record (Old Somerset, p. 401) is the first such authentic record found that far back. That Mary and Rose Daniell, were daughters of William Daniell, son of Edward Daniell, the emigrant, is not improbable.

All I can tell you is that Frances O'DANIEL born 1750, Fairfax County, VA married a MAYS probably ABT 1770 and they moved to SC where she died AFT 1799. I assume the MAYS were from the same general area as the O'DANIELS. Other siblings married into the HALBERT, TAlBERT, RADCLIFFE, BELL, NELSON and HURST families. The parents of Frances were John O'DANIEL and Elizabeth MOXLEY of Accotink Run, Fairfax County, Virginia. We do not know what happened to this MAYS fellow. I also know the TALBERTS were later a TN family. These Fairfax O'DANIELS migrated to both KY and SC, specifically Fairfax and Edgefield County, SC. Of all the DANIELS we ever discuss on this list, these were probably the most prominent in their entirety based upon the achievements of their descendants. BTW, this family also used both the DANIEL and DANIELL spelling for their names, as well as the original spelling of O'DANIEL. As for Grainger County, TN it is located adjacent to Knox, Jefferson, Hawkins, Union and Claiborne and I would think that any family in that area probably came from the Upper Neck or Augusta County, VA area and not Brunswick County, NC. The only Grainger County, TN connection I have in my 50K database that is linked to Grainger County, TN is a Lavinia Tipton RIGGS (1810-1870) who married Abner Bennett PONDER (1800-BEF 1860) of Oglethorpe County, GA and they were married in 1825 in Lawrence County, AL and migrated later to Pontotoc County, MS. If you will remember, from a previous post, the migration path of this PONDER family -- they migrated from MD through Augusta County, GA to York County, SC and then to Oglethorpe County, GA. This Abner is part of the same PONDER bunch. This is the only folks I carry from this area but I do carry the TIPTONS and there were all over the RENEAUS. These TIPTONS migrated along the same migration path and they lived in Herring Creek, Anne Arundel Co., MD. Their ancestor was an Edward TIPTON (1617-1688) and an Amy PHILLIPS of Northumberland Co., VA. The RENEAUS, who were from Fauquier County, VA centered up in Carter and Jefferson County, TN in a later time frame. John R.

Hi John, I just wanted to say that I believe Vickie has accurate information for much of the facts she submits to this list for our Daniel line. My great-great-grandfather, Joseph Daniel married to Levisa Greenlee Daniel was in Grainger Tennessee and his father, John Daniell was in Virginia and moved to Grainger. Edward Daniel Sr. and wife Anna? were in Tennessee, left for Virginia and returned to Tennessee where Edward was buried there in 1833 . Also all she has on the Mayes, Mays Daniel lines in Tennessee are correct. My great-grandmother, married to John Lewis Daniel, son of Joseph Daniel and Levisa Greenlee was Nancy MAYS born 1845 in Kentucky. If you go to the site for Danny Brubaker you can get a list of all DANIEL, MAYS etc. showing the surnames of those who married in the Daniel/Mayes/Mays lines. I have never seen that our Daniel line connects in anyway with your Daniel line. I keep hoping someone will show some information for our Daniel line on this list. We have several of our Daniel men who have done the DNA testing and we have some positive connection to the lines Vickie has written about. I enjoy being on this list and am impressed with all the information you, Payne and others contribute. I do, as does Vickie, continue to hope that someone in our line will contribute something to help us trace our Daniel back to Europe. Our "Brick Wall" is Edward Daniel, Sr. and Anna unknown. Very best wishes, Evelyn Daniel/Daniels Hansson

Henry Mayes of Henry County VirginiaHenry Mayes was born probably in Brunswick County Virginia died 1787 in Henry County Virginia. Henry Mayes and his wife Phebey bought 120 acres of land in Brunswick county Virginia May 3 1754. He came to Pittsylvania county, later to be known as Henry county, Virginia about 1773 and bought 110 acres of land from Robert Chandler on May 27 1773 in the southern part of the county, a few miles Southwest of Ridgeway on the West side of Marrowbone Creek near the North Carolina border. His neighbor David Lanier came to Henry county in 1773 and settled adjacent to Henry Mayes according to Henry county land records. Other close neighbors were Alexander McKeen, Thomas Smith, Alexander Joyce and William Moore. Henry bought 271 acres of land that bordered his land in 1777 from George Lumpkins and in 1779 bought another 150 acres on Fall Creek. In 1777, Henry and his sons took the Oath of Allegiance to be faithful and bear true allegiance to the commonwealth of Virginia and renounce and refuse all allegiance to George the Third, King of Great Britain. In the Revolutionary War, Henry's youngest son, David marched with Captain David Lanier in General Green's Militia of Henry county to take part in the Battle of Guilford Court House in North Carolina against Lord Cornwallis. Henry made his will November 4 , 1786 and died the following spring in 1787 as the Will was proved in Court in Henry county on May 12th 1787. In his Will he mentions his wife Phebey and his eleven children. He willed his son Goodin a 120 acres that he bought from George Lumpkins. He willed his son David the plantation where he lived and a request that David should maintain his beloved wife Phebey during her life or widowhood. He appointed his friend and neighbor and his son David his Administators and sole Executors. Witnesses to the Will were his neighbors Alexander Joyce, David Lanier, and Joseph Chandler. (see Will of Henry Mayes Book 1 page 151) The Inventory of Henry Mayes, dec. of Henry county Virginia was made October 15th 1887. Among items listed in the Inventory were, horses, cattle, and sheep. Farm items of different discriptions such as Sulky plow, rake, and other pantation tools. Household items were listed such as feather beds, coffee pot, parcial of earthenware and glasses, cotton wheel and spinning wheel. (see Inventory of Henry Mayes, dec.

Vickie, I think you have a lot of apples and oranges in some of that information, especially that part about John DANIELL and Hannah GRANGE moving to Granger County, TN. Or, the MAYES and DANIEL bunch. Granted, I think the DANIELL information is some of the worst we have but I would tend to think this John and Hannah either stayed around eastern NC or moved to somewhere down in SC or GA. As for the MAYES connection, one of the O'DANIELS out of Fairfax County, VA married a MAYES and Robert DANIELL has not been able to find out what happened to him other than his O'DANIEL girl died in SC. That's one of the problems when you look for specific names, there were lots of folks that had the same names in this period because they did not use a lot of different given names. So, it has been real easy for some researchers to grab on to the first Thomas DANIEL they find and say that was their ancestor -- if some will or deeds lists their known ancestor as a son of a Thomas DANIEL. However, that Thomas DANIEL could have been a Thomas DONNEL., Thomas DANIELLY or even a Thomas McDONALD. This is why I try to find the surnames that are collateral with my bunch in a certain area and then look for a blend of those same surnames in the area they moved to later. What I do is work, backwards. First, in my example, I took my known DANIEL bunch in Jefferson County, GA and I have developed all of their collaterals, who they married, where these folks came from and who were the ancestors of their collaterals and where they came from.. In other words, I know most everybody around or even remotely close to my DANIEL family in Burke and Jefferson County, GA. From this I have been able to develop not only a profile of my bunch but also a flavor as to the migration path each of these families took to reach Burke and later, Jefferson County, GA. However, I am dependent, to some degree, on the accuracy of the information researched by others and some of this information stinks. One of these is the TARVER information that has come out of Burke and Jefferson County, GA. I would not trust one scrap of information from this family. There are others, too. One of the things that I know about my Robert C. DANIEL (ABT 1764-AFT 1830) of Burke County, GA is that he or his wife had to come from a rather wealthy family because he hit Burke County, GA with more than pocket change. Considering that most of these families always seemed to find a way to have 10 or more chillen and Robert hit Burke with 10 slaves then he had to come from a family that had, at the very least, 50 or more slaves. I base this on an equal distribution of males and females in his family, meaning their were five boys and five girls and each of the boys got an equal distribution of the estate of their parents. However, his slaves could have come from the estate of his wife's parents, that I do not know. Or, they could have been a equal distribution from both his family and her family or he could have been an only child but I tend to discount this. Regardless, I think the least number of deductions that I must make in this matter is probably the simplest answer -- they came from his family. Since this Robert DANIEL was probably not the oldest boy in his family, he probably did not get a lion's share of his father's estate and over time the few slaves he got from his family could well be represented by the 10 slaves he had in 1820, when he was about age 50-55. It is not just sufficient to chase the given names in a certain family but you must also always chase the money, like the accountants say. So, I know that Robert C. DANIEL of Burke came from a good family, maybe not exactly landed gentry, but somewhere near this lofty group. He also seems to have married well since Isam LANE owned ABT 2,000 acres of land in Greene and Wayne County, NC when he died but I also know that his son, John LANE, got most of this land and not Robert's wife, Penelope LANE. I also know that his chillen in Burke tended to marry folks who either came down with them from NC or were related to folks they knew or were collateral with back in NC. His and Penelope's kids also tended to do well in their new location (s) and most of their kids families were worth in the 20K range by 1860 and this was not peanuts. I do get the feeling that these DANIELS did not make their fortunes off the backs of others and that slavery engaged agriculture was not one of their main pursuits. However, I do know they owned slaves but not in the proportions of others of their station in the same area. Also, some were Baptist and some were Methodist and the difference may have been due to who they married and not because of some ideological difference in religious doctrine between these two religions. This is kind of what you have to do with your family or with any family you research because if you do not know them, you will never be able to put them all together. I get hundreds of emails each day but only a few grab my attention. They do not do it by the specific names listed in that post but by the blend of names in that post combined with a specific location in a specific time frame. In the course of the last 15 years I have written hundreds of folks about their DANIEL ancestors and I have gotten hundreds of emails back saying their family was in no way related to my family. This is to be expected, not because my assessment was not correct, but because they did not know their family as well as they thought they did. So, just hang in there and one day we will all see the light and find out the answers to the many questions we have about our specific DANIEL bunch. John R.

EDWARD DANIEL - all information The York County, Va Daniell are descendants of the FIRST FOUR Daniell in Colony of Va. who came from Bristol England area. Somersetshire & Wiltshire branches of the family. Roger - John - Edward - Thomas There are also three other Daniell emigrants - Daniell, Henry, & Walter Colonel Peter Daniel, of Crow's Nest, mentioned as one of the neighbors of George Mason, of historic Gunston Hall, becoming the property of Edward Daniels. Gunston Hall was partially restored by Edward. It is one of the best types of Virginia colonial mansions. Peter, s/o James, s/o Charles, s/o James, the first ancestor - See complete article under Peter - Ancestry and Probable Origin of the Daniell Family of York, VA by Worth Stickley Ray - BK 929.273 D227r 27 Jul 1635 - Edward Daniell & Richard Cary came to Va. on the "Primrose" embarking at Gravesend, England with Capt. Douglass, Master. The Cary & Daniell families related. See Henry Daniell Note: Richard Cary was s/o Christopher Cary, of Bristol, England. He had a brother, John Cary and sister who married Henry Daniell, of Bristol, as shown by an indenture of Christopher Daniell and his wife Margaret, which appears in Waters "Gleanings", in which he states, "my two sons, Richard & John Cary, and my son-in-law, Henry Daniell, dated 1672. The probability that this Henry Daniell & Edward, Roger & John being related, are very strong. Note: Christopher Cary, s/o Christopher Cary, ca 1568-1626, married Lettice Young, was a merchant & Sheriff of Bristol, Eng. He was brother of William Cary (actually ½ bro.) who M: Goodall and had Miles Cary, the emigrant & kinsman of Roger Daniell. "Virginia Carys"p.15-20 Note: Article on Richard Cary, "Virginia Carys", p. 146: " on July 27, 1635, a number of young men bound for Va on the ship Primrose, Capt. Douglass, took the oaths of allegiance & supremacy at Gravesend. Among them was Richard Cary aged 17. He may well have been the same Richard Cary who, on October 13, 1653, patented 1350acres of land in Gloucester Co., VA. In 1662 this last named Richard joined one George Seaton in taking out a patent to 6,000 acres on the Potomac, in Westmoreland Co.,(later Stafford) not far from the 3000 acres which Miles Cary of Warwick had patented in the same county in 1654. He left a will dated Nov. 29, 1682, in which he named tow sons, Richard & John. (The will is lost in the Gloucester recds, but a recital in a deed in 1759. See Virginia Magazine II, page 280 - This Richard Cary could be ancestor of Hugh Cary, administrator of Hugh Ballentine, who sued James Daniel & wife Elizabeth in Goochland, in 1735, as shown by Judge Newman's acct of the Daniel Fam. - Va. Mag. XII, p. 253 - Notes Relating to connection of the Daniell & Cary Fam. by Worth Stickley Ray, 929.273 D227r June 1636 - John Neale, a well known figure on the early records of Accomac Co., VA, appears to have made the first claim to having transported Edward Daniell to the Colony, when he patented 1500a of land on the "Eastern Shore" on this date. (Nugent, p. 43) Among many others claimed at the same time as his headrights were, Thomas Adams, William Pearce, Ann Prosser and Henry Robinson. In the early records of the Daniell family of King & Queen and Carolina, the name of John Prosser frequently occurs as a close associate and neighbor. Two years later on May 10, 1638, the well known resident of the "Eastern Shore", Stephen Charlton, took out a certificate for 1000 acres in Accomac and among the headrights he claimed to own, were Thomas Bell, John Robinson, Edward Daniell and others. William Daniell, bro. of John Daniell of York, VA has a son Alexander Daniell, whose daughter, Elizabeth married Elias Bell. (Nugent, p. 82, for Charleton's patent) It was not until, 8, Oct 1644, after Edward Daniell had been in the colony nearly ten years, that he was used as a headright by Edwin Conway, when he patented his 500a in Northampton, Va, at Hungar's Creek and claimed he had transported to VA, among several others mentioned, Francis Harrison, William Burrell, John Powell and Edward Daniell. This clearly shows that Edward Daniell appeared in VA about the same time as Roger, John, Walter and Henry Daniell. This Edward Daniell settled in Accomac and in Northampton, VA for two years after Neale's patent in 1636. His name appears on the Accomac Co., records as a witness in a dispute between Stephen Charleton and others. (Fleet's VA Abstracts, Vol. 32, p. 61 & 62) In between the several times his name was used as a headright, he may have travel out of the country, selling his headright in each instance, to which he was entitled, to the next person who used it. It is believed that Edward may have went to Maryland; that the Bates and other influences drew him into the Quakers. This has never been proven. He may have been the father of William, who was living in Somerset Co., Maryland, between 1666 & 1700 and that the relationship between William Stone, Governor of Maryland (from Northampton, Va) and his family, accounts for the Daniell Family of Prince George and Charles, Maryland, shown on the Maryland Records. Old Somerset, p. 465 In Torrence's Old Somerset, Anguish Morrow, of Dorset County, MD, married Rose Daniell, of Somerset Co., MD, in 1676 and Edward Evans married Mary Daniell, in Somerset, on May 22, 1677. Worth Stickley Ray, writer of this compilation, is a descendant from Armstrong Morrow, who married Margaret Daniell. While the Morrows, Daniell, and Rays, intermarried for many generations, the above record (Old Somerset, p. 401) is the first such authentic record found that far back. That Mary and Rose Daniell, were daughters of William Daniell, son of Edward Daniell, the emigrant, is not improbable.

I beg to differ on your take of our Daniel and Mayes bunch, Henry county, VA. Henry Mayes and his wife Phoebe Harrell were there, much is documented on this line, most of all of Edwards children married children of Henry Mays, Sherrod Mays, etc. My Martha Mayes married William Daniel son of Edward Daniel in Grainger county, TN. 1821. Also the John Daniel that married Hannah Grainge is a descendant of Edward Daniel, a cousin is working on this line. Sherrod, Goodwin Mayes are also documented along with this Daniel family. They have wills, etc. on Henry Maze. Can you show me where John Daniel and Hannah Grange actually belong ? Some facts that pertain to John Daniel and Hannah Grainge, if so I will gladly contact the family member and clarify or correct the mistake. Not to offend in anyway, but my intention is to get facts not assumptions as to who they belong to. But Henry Mayes and Pheobe Harrell are diffinatly connected to our line, along with the Bridges, Hills, Jeffre! ys, Cottons, Norfleets, Rhodes, etc. Also there is Edward Daniel and Francis Daniel early in TN. church minutes. Vickie "John R. Clarke" <jclarke@rose.net> wrote:Vickie, I think you have a lot of apples and oranges in some of that information, especially that part about John DANIELL and Hannah GRANGE moving to Granger County, TN. Or, the MAYES and DANIEL bunch. Granted, I think the DANIELL information is some of the worst we have but I would tend to think this John and Hannah either stayed around eastern NC or moved to somewhere down in SC or GA. As for the MAYES connection, one of the O'DANIELS out of Fairfax County, VA married a MAYES and Robert DANIELL has not been able to find out what happened to him other than his O'DANIEL girl died in SC. That's one of the problems when you look for specific names, there were lots of folks that had the same names in this period because they did not use a lot of different given names. So, it has been real easy for some researchers to grab on to the first Thomas DANIEL they find and say that was their ancestor -- if some will or deeds lists their known ancestor as a son of a Thomas DANIEL. However, that Thomas DANIEL could have been a Thomas DONNEL., Thomas DANIELLY or even a Thomas McDONALD. This is why I try to find the surnames that are collateral with my bunch in a certain area and then look for a blend of those same surnames in the area they moved to later. What I do is work, backwards. First, in my example, I took my known DANIEL bunch in Jefferson County, GA and I have developed all of their collaterals, who they married, where these folks came from and who were the ancestors of their collaterals and where they came from.. In other words, I know most everybody around or even remotely close to my DANIEL family in Burke and Jefferson County, GA. From this I have been able to develop not only a profile of my bunch but also a flavor as to the migration path each of these families took to reach Burke and later, Jefferson County, GA. However, I am dependent, to some degree, on the accuracy of the information researched by others and some of this information stinks. One of these is the TARVER information that has come out of Burke and Jefferson County, GA. I would not trust one scrap of information from this family. There are others, too. One of the things that I know about my Robert C. DANIEL (ABT 1764-AFT 1830) of Burke County, GA is that he or his wife had to come from a rather wealthy family because he hit Burke County, GA with more than pocket change. Considering that most of these families always seemed to find a way to have 10 or more chillen and Robert hit Burke with 10 slaves then he had to come from a family that had, at the very least, 50 or more slaves. I base this on an equal distribution of males and females in his family, meaning their were five boys and five girls and each of the boys got an equal distribution of the estate of their parents. However, his slaves could have come from the estate of his wife's parents, that I do not know. Or, they could have been a equal distribution from both his family and her family or he could have been an only child but I tend to discount this. Regardless, I think the least number of deductions that I must make in this matter is probably the simplest answer -- they came from his family. Since this Robert DANIEL was probably not the oldest boy in his family, he probably did not get a lion's share of his father's estate and over time the few slaves he got from his family could well be represented by the 10 slaves he had in 1820, when he was about age 50-55. It is not just sufficient to chase the given names in a certain family but you must also always chase the money, like the accountants say. So, I know that Robert C. DANIEL of Burke came from a good family, maybe not exactly landed gentry, but somewhere near this lofty group. He also seems to have married well since Isam LANE owned ABT 2,000 acres of land in Greene and Wayne County, NC when he died but I also know that his son, John LANE, got most of this land and not Robert's wife, Penelope LANE. I also know that his chillen in Burke tended to marry folks who either came down with them from NC or were related to folks they knew or were collateral with back in NC. His and Penelope's kids also tended to do well in their new location (s) and most of their kids families were worth in the 20K range by 1860 and this was not peanuts. I do get the feeling that these DANIELS did not make their fortunes off the backs of others and that slavery engaged agriculture was not one of their main pursuits. However, I do know they owned slaves but not in the proportions of others of their station in the same area. Also, some were Baptist and some were Methodist and the difference may have been due to who they married and not because of some ideological difference in religious doctrine between these two religions. This is kind of what you have to do with your family or with any family you research because if you do not know them, you will never be able to put them all together. I get hundreds of emails each day but only a few grab my attention. They do not do it by the specific names listed in that post but by the blend of names in that post combined with a specific location in a specific time frame. In the course of the last 15 years I have written hundreds of folks about their DANIEL ancestors and I have gotten hundreds of emails back saying their family was in no way related to my family. This is to be expected, not because my assessment was not correct, but because they did not know their family as well as they thought they did. So, just hang in there and one day we will all see the light and find out the answers to the many questions we have about our specific DANIEL bunch. John R. Clarke Thomasville, GA ----- Original Message ----- From: "Vickie Lomon" To: Sent: Sunday, April 25, 2004 2:12 AM Subject: [DANIEL-L] Notes on Edward Daniel, Mayo River, deeds, also Brett and Walter Daniel,John Daniels, SR. and JR. enclosed are compiled notes by another researcher working on the Edward Daniel line, I don't know how accurate it is, but I thought I would post it to see if anyone reconizes these families and names. EDWARD DANIEL - all information The York County, Va Daniell are descendants of the FIRST FOUR Daniell in Colony of Va. who came from Bristol England area. Somersetshire & Wiltshire branches of the family. Roger - John - Edward - Thomas There are also three other Daniell emigrants - Daniell, Henry, & Walter Colonel Peter Daniel, of Crow's Nest, mentioned as one of the neighbors of George Mason, of historic Gunston Hall, becoming the property of Edward Daniels. Gunston Hall was partially restored by Edward. It is one of the best types of Virginia colonial mansions. Peter, s/o James, s/o Charles, s/o James, the first ancestor - See complete article under Peter - Ancestry and Probable Origin of the Daniell Family of York, VA by Worth Stickley Ray - BK 929.273 D227r 27 Jul 1635 - Edward Daniell & Richard Cary came to Va. on the "Primrose" embarking at Gravesend, England with Capt. Douglass, Master. The Cary & Daniell families related. See Henry Daniell Note: Richard Cary was s/o Christopher Cary, of Bristol, England. He had a brother, John Cary and sister who married Henry Daniell, of Bristol, as shown by an indenture of Christopher Daniell and his wife Margaret, which appears in Waters "Gleanings", in which he states, "my two sons, Richard & John Cary, and my son-in-law, Henry Daniell, dated 1672. The probability that this Henry Daniell & Edward, Roger & John being related, are very strong. Note: Christopher Cary, s/o Christopher Cary, ca 1568-1626, married Lettice Young, was a merchant & Sheriff of Bristol, Eng. He was brother of William Cary (actually � bro.) who M: Goodall and had Miles Cary, the emigrant & kinsman of Roger Daniell. "Virginia Carys"p.15-20 Note: Article on Richard Cary, "Virginia Carys", p. 146: " on July 27, 1635, a number of young men bound for Va on the ship Primrose, Capt. Douglass, took the oaths of allegiance & supremacy at Gravesend. Among them was Richard Cary aged 17. He may well have been the same Richard Cary who, on October 13, 1653, patented 1350acres of land in Gloucester Co., VA. In 1662 this last named Richard joined one George Seaton in taking out a patent to 6,000 acres on the Potomac, in Westmoreland Co.,(later Stafford) not far from the 3000 acres which Miles Cary of Warwick had patented in the same county in 1654. He left a will dated Nov. 29, 1682, in which he named tow sons, Richard & John. (The will is lost in the Gloucester recds, but a recital in a deed in 1759. See Virginia Magazine II, page 280 - This Richard Cary could be ancestor of Hugh Cary, administrator of Hugh Ballentine, who sued James Daniel & wife Elizabeth in Goochland, in 1735, as shown by Judge Newman's acct of the Daniel Fam. - Va. Mag. XII, p. 253 - Notes Relating to connection of the Daniell & Cary Fam. by Worth Stickley Ray, 929.273 D227r June 1636 - John Neale, a well known figure on the early records of Accomac Co., VA, appears to have made the first claim to having transported Edward Daniell to the Colony, when he patented 1500a of land on the "Eastern Shore" on this date. (Nugent, p. 43) Among many others claimed at the same time as his headrights were, Thomas Adams, William Pearce, Ann Prosser and Henry Robinson. In the early records of the Daniell family of King & Queen and Carolina, the name of John Prosser frequently occurs as a close associate and neighbor. Two years later on May 10, 1638, the well known resident of the "Eastern Shore", Stephen Charlton, took out a certificate for 1000 acres in Accomac and among the headrights he claimed to own, were Thomas Bell, John Robinson, Edward Daniell and others. William Daniell, bro. of John Daniell of York, VA has a son Alexander Daniell, whose daughter, Elizabeth married Elias Bell. (Nugent, p. 82, for Charleton's patent) It was not until, 8, Oct 1644, after Edward Daniell had been in the colony nearly ten years, that he was used as a headright by Edwin Conway, when he patented his 500a in Northampton, Va, at Hungar's Creek and claimed he had transported to VA, among several others mentioned, Francis Harrison, William Burrell, John Powell and Edward Daniell. This clearly shows that Edward Daniell appeared in VA about the same time as Roger, John, Walter and Henry Daniell. This Edward Daniell settled in Accomac and in Northampton, VA for two years after Neale's patent in 1636. His name appears on the Accomac Co., records as a witness in a dispute between Stephen Charleton and others. (Fleet's VA Abstracts, Vol. 32, p. 61 & 62) In between the several times his name was used as a headright, he may have travel out of the country, selling his headright in each instance, to which he was entitled, to the next person who used it. It is believed that Edward may have went to Maryland; that the Bates and other influences drew him into the Quakers. This has never been proven. He may have been the father of William, who was living in Somerset Co., Maryland, between 1666 & 1700 and that the relationship between William Stone, Governor of Maryland (from Northampton, Va) and his family, accounts for the Daniell Family of Prince George and Charles, Maryland, shown on the Maryland Records. Old Somerset, p. 465 In Torrence's Old Somerset, Anguish Morrow, of Dorset County, MD, married Rose Daniell, of Somerset Co., MD, in 1676 and Edward Evans married Mary Daniell, in Somerset, on May 22, 1677. Worth Stickley Ray, writer of this compilation, is a descendant from Armstrong Morrow, who married Margaret Daniell.

Clay, This smells an awful lot like the migration pattern of the PONDERS and PATTERSONS and probably others, maybe even the CUNNINGHAMS and DANIEL bunch of Greene County, GA. I know there was a LANE Family in the Orange County, VA area. They list even an Isham LANE, Jr. born 1757 in Orange County, VA who moved to KY. I have looked at this LANE bunch, especially since I have an Isham or Isam LANE, Sr. but I cannot connect them up. I also know there was a DONNEL family tied to the PATTERSONS and probably the PONDERS, too. The PATTERSONS and PONDERS migrated into Queen Anne County, Maryland and then through the Shenandoah Valley area to York County, SC, then Craven.. All of this was in the 1750 time frame and they are in SC by 1770. Actually they say Margaret DONNELL (ABT 1680-1770) , wife of William PATTERSON, died in Tyron County, NC in 1770 and it is located right across the NC border from York County, SC. Their grand daughter, Elizabeth PATTERSON b. ABT 1755, the d/o Robert PATTERSON (ABT 1710-1775) and Sarah, married Daniel PONDER, Jr. the son of Daniel PONDER, Sr. and Jemima BENNETT. Daniel, Jr.(1755-1817) and Elizabeth moved to Buncombe County, NC, later Madison County, NC. Most of this bunch were real big Tories although "they say" some of Daniel, Jr's brothers served the American cause during the RW. Several of these PONDER boys moved to Wilkes County, GA. Known Tory families that are collateral with this bunch are BLACK and JULIAN. I also know there were lots of DONNELLS and McDONALDS in the Shenandoah Valley area with lots of ties back to southern PA. One of these was a Randall McDONALD and there was even a Robert DONNELL, as I remember. You need to look at the Chaulkley Papers on the Augusta County, VA website because they list a lot of these early families of that area. Smith Calloway BANKS, my friend and historian of Bulloch County, GA seems to think my DANIEL bunch may have followed his family down from the Reading, PA area into Orange and Spotsylvania County, VA. Or, they linked up with them somewhere along the way. This bunch was in the foundry business and made cannons for Washington's army during the RW. I cannot discount this because of the Isham LANE name connection to Orange but I cannot find any links between Robert C. DANIEL of Greene County, NC and this area. Nor, can I find any links between the LANES of Greene County, NC and the LANES in Orange County, NC, other than the name, Isham, which I noted. One of the reasons I feel that Ms. Lucy GRAY's DANIEL bunch and mine are connected is because Elisha Fowler BANKS (ABT 1765-1795) was Smith's ancestor. He also was the father of Elizabeth BANKS who married Elijah Hosea CALLOWAY, Sr. of Emanuel County, GA, later Jackson County, FL where his daughter, Sarah Ann Caroline CALLOWAY, married Josiah DANIEL (ABT 1804-1853), Miss Lucy's direct DANIEL ancestor. We also now know where Miss Lucy's DANIELS descend from -- the IOW DANIEL family, so this pretty much locks my bunch into this same family but I will not know until we get my DANIEL cousin's DNA test back in six to eight weeks. The CALLOWAYS, as most know, were, originally, from Somerset County, MD I also have other direct links from this general area, including the RAMSEYS (New Castle, MD) and ALEXANDERS (Frederick, MD) and my RENEAU bunch (Frederick and Fauquier County, VA). The RENEAUS, RAMSEYS and ALEXANDERS also migrated to TN, generally around the Knox, Jefferson and Sevier County areas. I also have a NORRIS family that ties into the RENEAUS in Jefferson County that I cannot find a lot on. My STOCKTON family from that area descends from the Davis STOCKTON line out of Albemarle County, VA and they were formerly of Monmouth County, NJ. So, I do have a few links to MD and TN but not in the TN counties you listed. One of the RENEAU hot spots for a while was Wilson County, TN before they moved ob to Blue River TWP, Harrison County, IN. They were also tied to the John SEVIER family, another Augusta County, VA family - one of John SEVIER's daughters married my 4th GGU, Francis RENEAU RS-VA. Another close family of the RAMSEYS was the FLEMING family of Augusta County, VA and they tie back to a CHRISTIAN family of the same location. I have always felt there was a good likelihood there was some links between my DANIEL family and my RENEAU family but I have never been able to develop a link between my DANIEL families eastern NC origins and my RENEAU bunch in TN, other than the SWANN connection I noted in a previous post. However, the PONDERS are connected to my DANIEL family in Morgan County, GA and in 1836 in Burke County, GA a William PATTERSON sued my GGF, Robert W. DANIEL (1809-1865) and I have to believe that was a result of family matters, they usually are. I do not know the details of this suit because these records have been lost but William PATTERSON was married to a LITTLE but this Burke County, GA families "stated" genealogy is such that they would never have been connected to my bunch because, according to them, they were in GA long before the RW and all of them served the American cause during the RW. Personally, I think they were probably part of the PATTERSONS of York County, SC and they may well be connected to my DANIEL bunch, as indicated by my families latter connection to the PONDERS. However, that, is just a guess on my part. The things we are bumping up against is a lot of creative genealogy that was used to obtain membership in the DAR. As you can probably imagine, none of these folks of the turn of the last century (and before) wanted their family, in any way, to be associated with the Tories. So, what they did was find themselves an ancestor that served the American cause and locked in that boy into their family, whether they were their ancestor or not. Now, we are starting to straighten some of this "creative genealogy" out through DNA research and a lot better access to primary source records than was available to these early researchers or even the DAR.. What we are bumping up against now are poorly transcribed original records because there are generally two types of persons that transcribe these records. One, is the person who has little formal training but wants to write a book for some extra cash and they wing it on a lot of the names they transcribe. They also do not know the families of the area being covered in their transcriptions, so names like, DONNELL becomes DANIEL, WYSE becomes WISE, or MARSHALL becomes MARSH, etc. You see this all the time in census and will records, which is why I always go back to the originals to see what they actually said. The second type is a person is one who is not at arm's length to what they are transcribing, such as what you often see cited as primary source information in family genealogy books. There have been good family researchers but I always feel a lot of this stuff is created, knowingly or unknowingly because these family researchers depend too much on compiled information submitted by others. The problem is -- both of these types of errors get easily intermixed into our research and once there, they are hard to straighten out. This is why I have pushed the concept of "profiling" you family so you will have some understanding of the types of families into which your ancestors were likely to marry. Two old rules I like and they are important ones, area -- "acorns do not fall that far from the tree" and "blood is thicker than water." In other words, your ancestors would more than likely marry into families that were just like them, financially, professionally and otherwise and more than likely, they would marry into one of their collateral families. Take these two concepts as your guide and you will never be far off about your family. John R.

John, the Beaufort County that I referred to was in North Carolina - and that was in reference to the VA Grays that I know of in NC. My Samuel Mayo moved to GA after the war - he died in Jefferson County, Georgia in 1804. His son Harmon lived in Jefferson County for a while after his father's death and eventually died in Dooly County, GA. I do not know if the Harmon Mayo mentioned in the deed is the same Harmon Mayo, or maybe a cousin. Jack ----- Original Message ----- From: "John R.

enclosed are compiled notes by another researcher working on the Edward Daniel line, I don't know how accurate it is, but I thought I would post it to see if anyone reconizes these families and names. EDWARD DANIEL - all information The York County, Va Daniell are descendants of the FIRST FOUR Daniell in Colony of Va. who came from Bristol England area. Somersetshire & Wiltshire branches of the family. Roger - John - Edward - Thomas There are also three other Daniell emigrants - Daniell, Henry, & Walter Colonel Peter Daniel, of Crow�s Nest, mentioned as one of the neighbors of George Mason, of historic Gunston Hall, becoming the property of Edward Daniels. Gunston Hall was partially restored by Edward. It is one of the best types of Virginia colonial mansions. Peter, s/o James, s/o Charles, s/o James, the first ancestor - See complete article under Peter - Ancestry and Probable Origin of the Daniell Family of York, VA by Worth Stickley Ray - BK 929.273 D227r 27 Jul 1635 - Edward Daniell & Richard Cary came to Va. on the "Primrose" embarking at Gravesend, England with Capt. Douglass, Master. The Cary & Daniell families related. See Henry Daniell Note: Richard Cary was s/o Christopher Cary, of Bristol, England. He had a brother, John Cary and sister who married Henry Daniell, of Bristol, as shown by an indenture of Christopher Daniell and his wife Margaret, which appears in Waters "Gleanings", in which he states, "my two sons, Richard & John Cary, and my son-in-law, Henry Daniell, dated 1672. The probability that this Henry Daniell & Edward, Roger & John being related, are very strong. Note: Christopher Cary, s/o Christopher Cary, ca 1568-1626, married Lettice Young, was a merchant & Sheriff of Bristol, Eng. He was brother of William Cary (actually � bro.) who M: Goodall and had Miles Cary, the emigrant & kinsman of Roger Daniell. "Virginia Carys"p.15-20 Note: Article on Richard Cary, "Virginia Carys", p. 146: " on July 27, 1635, a number of young men bound for Va on the ship Primrose, Capt. Douglass, took the oaths of allegiance & supremacy at Gravesend. Among them was Richard Cary aged 17. He may well have been the same Richard Cary who, on October 13, 1653, patented 1350acres of land in Gloucester Co., VA. In 1662 this last named Richard joined one George Seaton in taking out a patent to 6,000 acres on the Potomac, in Westmoreland Co.,(later Stafford) not far from the 3000 acres which Miles Cary of Warwick had patented in the same county in 1654. He left a will dated Nov. 29, 1682, in which he named tow sons, Richard & John. (The will is lost in the Gloucester recds, but a recital in a deed in 1759. See Virginia Magazine II, page 280 - This Richard Cary could be ancestor of Hugh Cary, administrator of Hugh Ballentine, who sued James Daniel & wife Elizabeth in Goochland, in 1735, as shown by Judge Newman�s acct of the Daniel Fam. - Va. Mag. XII, p. 253 - Notes Relating to connection of the Daniell & Cary Fam. by Worth Stickley Ray, 929.273 D227r June 1636 - John Neale, a well known figure on the early records of Accomac Co., VA, appears to have made the first claim to having transported Edward Daniell to the Colony, when he patented 1500a of land on the "Eastern Shore" on this date. (Nugent, p. 43) Among many others claimed at the same time as his headrights were, Thomas Adams, William Pearce, Ann Prosser and Henry Robinson. In the early records of the Daniell family of King & Queen and Carolina, the name of John Prosser frequently occurs as a close associate and neighbor. Two years later on May 10, 1638, the well known resident of the "Eastern Shore", Stephen Charlton, took out a certificate for 1000 acres in Accomac and among the headrights he claimed to own, were Thomas Bell, John Robinson, Edward Daniell and others. William Daniell, bro. of John Daniell of York, VA has a son Alexander Daniell, whose daughter, Elizabeth married Elias Bell. (Nugent, p. 82, for Charleton�s patent) It was not until, 8, Oct 1644, after Edward Daniell had been in the colony nearly ten years, that he was used as a headright by Edwin Conway, when he patented his 500a in Northampton, Va, at Hungar�s Creek and claimed he had transported to VA, among several others mentioned, Francis Harrison, William Burrell, John Powell and Edward Daniell. This clearly shows that Edward Daniell appeared in VA about the same time as Roger, John, Walter and Henry Daniell. This Edward Daniell settled in Accomac and in Northampton, VA for two years after Neale�s patent in 1636. His name appears on the Accomac Co., records as a witness in a dispute between Stephen Charleton and others. (Fleet�s VA Abstracts, Vol. 32, p. 61 & 62) In between the several times his name was used as a headright, he may have travel out of the country, selling his headright in each instance, to which he was entitled, to the next person who used it. It is believed that Edward may have went to Maryland; that the Bates and other influences drew him into the Quakers. This has never been proven. He may have been the father of William, who was living in Somerset Co., Maryland, between 1666 & 1700 and that the relationship between William Stone, Governor of Maryland (from Northampton, Va) and his family, accounts for the Daniell Family of Prince George and Charles, Maryland, shown on the Maryland Records. Old Somerset, p. 465 In Torrence�s Old Somerset, Anguish Morrow, of Dorset County, MD, married Rose Daniell, of Somerset Co., MD, in 1676 and Edward Evans married Mary Daniell, in Somerset, on May 22, 1677. Worth Stickley Ray, writer of this compilation, is a descendant from Armstrong Morrow, who married Margaret Daniell. While the Morrows, Daniell, and Rays, intermarried for many generations, the above record (Old Somerset, p. 401) is the first such authentic record found that far back. That Mary and Rose Daniell, were daughters of William Daniell, son of Edward Daniell, the emigrant, is not improbable.

Her name is Sarah Weatherspoon, who had one son, William Weatherspoon, (who moved to Burke Co., NC before 1786) before she married John Daniel. In Ancestry & Probable Origin of the Daniell Family of York, Va. by Worth Stickley Ray, p. 25, he states that this Sarah could have been a Tatum. (Sarah either died or moved from Henry/Patrick, VA in 1797.) He also states that this John Daniell�s, of Brunswick, Va., first wife was Elizabeth Marmaduke, a member of an old Westmoreland Co., family, the grandfather of which was Miles Marmaduke, who left a Will proved 28 Aug 1695, in Westmoreland, Va - See John Daniell ca 1700, s/o Hugh/Mary Billington, s/o Roger 1st of England.

John, wonder if you might have any info on my ggg-grandmother Agnes Lane who was born 25 Jan 1767 supposedly somewhere in Virginia. Agnes Lane married Benjamin Kimsey/Kinzey the younger. The Kimsey family seems to have migrated down the Shenandoah Valley of western Virginia, possibly from Cumberland County Pennsylvania after they had come from Ulster to America in the early 1700's, eventually settling in Buncombe County North Carolina, where my gg-grandfather Robert C. Daniel married Nancy Kimsey about 1810. Both Benjamin Kimsey the elder and the younger died in Buncombe County between 1800-1810, and the family moved to Bedford County Tennessee by 1813. Agnes Lane Kimsey remarried to Joseph Long, and it is because of the Long family Bible that we know the exact date of birth of Agnes Lane. Joseph Long died in 1839, and by 1850 Agnes is living with the Robert C. Daniel family in what was then Bedford County, now Moore County, Tennessee. We believe we know where Agnes Lane Kimsey Long is buried, at the head of Daniel Hollow there in Moore County, but there is no surviving marker, so this is just a belief with no real proof. We do not know what part of Virginia Agnes Lane came from, and cannot assume the Lane family nor my Daniel line followed the same migration path as the Kimzey bunch. In her book on the Kimsey family, Alga Kimsey says nothing is known of Agness' family, but speculates she may have been related to the Joseph Lane Jr. family. Alga does say that according to family tradition, Agness is described as a Welsh woman, "a beautiful woman and so small that she could have danced on a looking glass." Clay Daniels Fort Worth, Texas

Jack, I have MAYOS tied to my maternal THIGPEN line out of Edgecombe. Lydia MAYO married James THIGPEN V, son of James IV and Mary Penelope HILL. I descend from James's brother, the Hon. Travis Hill THIGPEN (1747-1849) who married Hannah Hall HARDY of Pitt County, NC, who moved later to Emanuel County, GA and they are my 4th GGP. Speaking of a Sam MAYO, I knew a Rev. Sam MAYO of the South Georgia Conference for many years. Brother Sam died about 10 years ago in Fitzgerald, Ben Hill County, GA. He was a very close family friend. "Brother Sam" married, as his second wife, one of my mother's best friends, Verlin PATTEN and the PATTENS lived out near Rochelle. Brother Sam was the Associate Minister at Central UMC in Fitzgerald in his later years after spending about 40 years at various churches in the South Georgia Conference. Brother Sam was a very nice man and a credit to his profession. Knowing Sam as well as the MAY family attached to some of my paternal bunch, I have often wondered if some of these MAYS were not MAYO. My cousin, Joe MAY of Thomasville is of about the same statue as Brother Sam - short, stocky and Methodist.. The GRAY family I am looking at is John GRAY of Scotland ( 1690-1756) who married Ann BRYAN, d/o Col. Lewis BRYAN and Elizabeth HUNTER of Edenton, Chowan County, NC. Their children are listed, below. I also think the MAY and MAYO and probably the MOYE family gets commingled in the Pitt County, NC area and I am not sure which is which. If the MAYOS went to Beaufort County, SC, so did the MAYS. Are any of the MAYO bunch tied to the STAFFORDS. If so, we may be looking at the same family. Also the story of John MAY is that he came through Charleston and anyone who was from Barbados came through Charleston on the way to NC...... <<< Children i.

John, Harmon Mayo was the son of Samuel Mayo, born 1761 in Perquimans County, NC. And to feed your favorite speculations a little, Samuel was a great grandson of Edward Mayo who came to North Carolina via South Carolina and Barbados before that. Harmon Mayo was brother to my ancestor Brittain Mayo. Their father, Samuel Mayo, served in Capt. John Hodge's Co. of the Pitt Volunteers, Seawell's Regt., NC Militia, commanded by Col. Benj. Seawell of the North Carolina Regiment of Militia. His brother John Mayo - possibly the John Mayo Mike mentions - also served in the RW from Pitt County. I looked at the Grays a little in VA - they married into the JERKINS/JUDKINS folk that I was chasing at the time - but I have not done much with them in NC. Some of them moved with the Jerkins to NE North Carolina - particularly to Beaufort County, NC. Likewise, the Worley's married into the JERKINS/JUDKINS in NC. But the only Daniel connection that I have found between my JERKINS and any DANIEL line is a couple of JERKINS deeds witnessed by some Daniel men in Halifax Co, NC.

John, Do you suppose there are any male descendants of John Raven Daniel and his Emanuel CO brothers who might consider taking the DNA test? It would surely help to straighten out that group. Lucy

Thought you would like to know that Joseph LANE, Jr. and Patience McKINNIE of Bertie, later Edgecombe County, NC were not born in the 1710-1715 time frame most list for them -- they were born 10 or more years before that. I think the following deed pretty much confirms that Joseph and Patience were married probably by ABT 1723 and not the 1730 dates most list for them and we know they were married by 1728. I also think the following 1728 POA for Patience LANE is very important, too, since it was given to Matthew RAIFORD, as well as the deeds between McKINNIE and the RAIFORDS which are marked with a * in this message........ Other Bertie deeds indicate that Joseph LANE, Sr. and Julian JARRELL were alive at least until 29 Jul 1727 and that Col. Barnabus McKINNIE was alive until, at least, until 28 Jan. 1739. This is just another few example of how some of this stuff has been cobbled up from 1723-1739. He was also married to a Mary M. Prominent names listed in these deeds are BROWN, BOYLE, GRAY, PACE, RAIFORD, LEDBETTER, MURPHEY, RUSHIN, JOYNER, JACKSON, CUMMINGS, LANE, LANG, FROST, BALDWIN, JONES, LOWE, MILIKAN, CHAVERS, GREEN, HOLLY, WHEELER, BRASWELL, MASON, POPE, SIMS, SIMONS, MCLEMORE, BOSEMAN, CAIN, BEAN, NICHOLS, DICKUM (DIXON?), DUKES, EARP, PEETE, HOWELL and probably a few I missed. If you want a list of all of the Barnabus McKINNIE deeds, let me know, I have them. <<< Bertie County, NC 14 May 1723, A, 59, 39 Barnabe Mackinne, Jr. to Joseph Lane, Jr. 250 acres (part of 530 acres land patent to William Murphrey on 5 April 1720), then sold to Barnabe Mackinne.

Jack, If he was a MAYO, I would say he was probably not tied to the CASONS. All you ahve to do is look at the deed indexes for Pitt to know that unless the clerks were cobbling MAYO into MOYE, which is a reasonable possiblity. Maybe you have bumped into the GRAY and BRYAN family of Bertie County, NC in your research. Have you ever bumped into the marriage of Ann BRYAN and John GRAY of Bertie County, NC. I am really looking at Miss Lucretia GRAY b. 1732 as a possible for my Lewcy who married Capt. Isham or Isam LANE b. ABT 1730. There is also a Louisa GRAY in this family who married a WORLEY according to one researcher and he may have died and she married Isham LANE. This family has the right links and five of the exact given names found in my later DANIEL bunch, John, William, Lucretia, Amelia and Elizabeth. I like that kind of match. The only match I do not have is to the LANES. This is the children I have for John GRAY and Ann BRYAN: <<< Children i. John GRAY b: 16 MAY 1724 in Bertie Co.,, NC Marriage 1 Unknown ii. Janet GRAY b: 7 DEC 1721 in Bertie Co.,, NC Marriage 1 John MCKENZIE Married: 7 Dec 1741 in Bertie Co., NC Death: 28 Feb 1753 iii.
