Thank you John. My Daniel were from Virginia, North Carolina to Tennessee, Kentucky and Illinois. You get queries sometimes from Vickie Lomon and she is searching for the same ancestor as I. He is Edward Daniel Sr. married to Anna ? They were in Virginia and returned to Tennessee where they died (he died in 1833.) My immediate Daniel/Daniels line were from southern Illinois, Pulaski Co. Best wishes, Evelyn Crow/Daniel/Daniels Hansson (Born in Alexander Co. and lived in Pulaski Co., IL.)

Evelyn, I think I have seen that BEAGLES name somewhere in those eastern NC deeds but did not realize the significance of it. One name to watch for that I know went to TN from this area in NC is SWANN. Unlike some, I have never bought into the "Owen DANIEL > Thomas and Simon DANIEL" theory that some have postulated, primarily because it does not make sense. There is one thing I know about all of these folks, besides the fact they mostly married family, is -- they re-used given names about as fast as some of the language of this old Marine can get from time to time. For me never to see the name, Owen, in either Thomas's or Simon's family in either the first or second generations makes me think this assignment is highly unlikely. The only common name that both Simon and Thomas have in the first generation, which cannot be accounted for, is William DANIEL. That, to me, is a real possibility for their father. Robert is also a common given names in both families because of their connection to both the Robert ROGERS and Robert LANIER families. One surname that may have corrupted the DANIELS in the eastern NC area is the DANNALL family, which may be of Somerset or Dorchester County, MD but it may well be an extension of this DANIEL family, if that makes sense. . I know there was a Robert DANNALL in Pitt County, NC in 1790 and while his name is spelled, DANNALLS, the Lanier-Daniel bunch is spelled DANIEL. John R.

Good Evening, Notice the LILLINGTON name. A LILLINGTON family is also tied to the ALSTONS of Chowan County, NC in a later time frame. Notice also the Thomas DANIELL name. I also found the HATTONS sitting in Somerset County, MD and many of the families in Somerset have links back and forth between Somerset and Dorchester. Even more interesting is John RAVEN who moved with his family to Dorchester County, MD in 1672. My LANES may also be part of the Walter LANE, Sr. family, also of Somerset County, MD.

Hello John, It is interesting that you found Isam LANE in Greene County, NC. My great-grandfather, William Strader Beagles married a Sarah LANE in Greene County, Tennessee. Sarah's family of LANE were there and she was born there. William Beagles was born in Jessamine Co. KY and I don't know why he was in Tennessee. Best wishes, Evelyn Hansson

Good Afternoon, I found out something interesting about Isam LANE (ABT 1730-1801) of Greene County, NC, whose name is often spelled, as "Isham" but it was probably Isam because Isam LANE is so identified in 1758 deeds of Johnston County, NC. Isam was also a big name in the GILLIAM family of Surry County, VA and in the William ANDREWS family of Halifaz County, NC in the 1730 time frame. William ANDREWS (1691-1761) was married to a Catherine HILL and they had a son, Isam ANDREWS born ABT 1722. They also had a daughter, Jean ANDREWS, who married William BRYANT (BRYAN) who was born 1712 in Orange County, VA and died in 1762 in Halifax County, NC. He was the son of Edward BRYAN I and Christina COUNCILL. This is the same BRYAN line that Penelope BRYAN who married Levin LANE comes from. This seems to confirm that Isam was probably a brother of Levin, a possibility I have always considered. As we also know, the HILL family was closely collateral with this BRYAN/BRYANT family. Jean's brother, Jesse ANDREWS (ABT 1728-15 NOV 1771) of Edgecombe County, NC married Milicent Milleson Amelia 'Jane' WARREN, d/o Robert WARREN and Rebecca RANDOLPH. They had children named, Allen, Cullen, Elizabeth and Jane. The Bryant and Cullen given names are found in the family of Isam LANE of Greene County, NC and the Amelia, Allen and Elizabeth names are all in my DANIEL family of Burke County, GA, whose mother was Penelope LANE (1773-1846), a d/o Isam. The BLOUNT family of Johnston County, NC may well be a part of this overall bunch because a Benjamin BLOUNT deeded land to Isam LANE in 1758 in what was then Johnston County, NC, later Greene County, NC. I also think both the FORTS and PIPKINS are probably part of this overall bunch, especially the family of Arthur FORT of Surry County, VA. There are lots of others, specifically including a Micagah PARKER. Micagah, the given name, whether it is in the WILLAMSON, PAULK or PARKER families tell me this name probably evolved from the earlier Micagah PERRY of James City, VA, who, according to what I have read, was in business with a Thomas LANE in James City County, VA -- they were early London merchants. This merchant class fits well into my bunch because most of them were merchants in later years. The Edward HARRIS (1633-1734) family of James City, later Isle of Wight County, VA, may also play into this, too, since their son Weston HARRIS named one of his sons, Isham HARRIS, and Weston's brother, Capt Nathan HARRIS married Catherine WALTON, d/o George WALTON and Elizabeth ROWE of Brunswick County, VA and this bunch feeds right into my family in Morgan County, GA. I have also felt the Thomas LANE who is found with Isam in lots of these Johnston County, NC deeds, involving many of the same folks, was his father but I now think this may be incorrect. I now think that Thomas LANE of Johnston County, NC was possibly his brother, although he could still be his father. Anyway, he was family of some variety. Most, if not all of the folks I see in Burke County, NC in a later time frame are sitting in deeds involving all of these folks in Johnston County, NC in the past 1750 time frame, including the ERWINS, WISE and TARVERS. There were DANIELS in these same Johnston County, NC deeds but they have no common links to any of the other families tied to the LANES, which tells me my DANIEL bunch either came from another area in NC/ VA or they came to Greene County, NC, later. Regardless, they were there by 1790. John R. Clarke Thomasville, GA

James, Sorry, but I do not have this particular DANIEL in my files but the name, Alexander is real big given name in the Augusta County, VA area. Since you say they migrated from VA to TN and then KY, this is right along the migration path from this area in VA. The ALEXANDERS also migrated from MD to Augusta County, VA and then down to TN, which seems to follow your bunch pretty closely. John R.

Seeking parents and other information on Samuel R. Daniel. Born in VA about 1790, and moved to TN, KY, then to Missouri. Married more than once, but last marriage was with Ruth Reeves. Had the following children: John R. Daniel b. 1828 George W. Daniel b. 1832 Alexander Daniel b. 1834 Burdett L. Daniel b. 1838 Marcus L. Daniel b. 1841 Nancy Jane Daniel b. 1842.

Good Morning, I was going through the tax records of Pitt County, NC last night and something struck me as being not quite right. In both the 1762 and 1763 Tax Records of Pitt County, NC they have two entries for DANIEL (White, Slaves, total) . Thomas DANIEL, William BUTLER and Josiah DANIEL (3,2,5) Robert DANIEL, Esq. (1,4,5) . More interesting are the entries for the CASONS and CANNONS: Henry CASON (1,0,1) John CASON, Zacharia PINKET, Thomas PINKET (3,1,4) William CASON, Hillary CASON (2,0.2) William CANNON (1,0,1) Samuel CANNON (1,0,1) This entry really interests me because he end up later end up in Greene County, NC, later. Richard EVANS (1,12,13) How about these entries: William Daniel PINKET (1,1,2) William LANEAR, Michael ELLIS (2,7,9) William STOKES (1,0,1) Those persons who had the Esq. attached to their names. Robert DANIEL - Entry: Robert DANIEL Esqr. (1,4,5) Benjamin BOWERS - Entry: Benj, BOWERS Esqr. (2.0.2) John HARDEE - John HARDEE Esqr. (1,7,8) George MOY - Entry: George MOY Esqr.(1,3,4) Edward SALTER - Entry: Edward SALTER Esqr., Edward SALTER, Jr, Robert SALTER (3,31,34) Edward STAFFORD - Entry: Edward STAFFORD Esqr. (1,3,4) Abraham TYSON - Entry: Abraham TYSON Esqr., Joel SUGG, Allen SUGG (3,12,15) John TYSON - Entry: John TYSON Esqr., Samuel TYSON (2,2,4) Notice: Robert DANIEL is not listed as Robert Lanier DANIEL. I know this Robert had many deeds with George MOYE. I think all of these folks are probably related in various ways. The SALTERS and the CASONS were all over each other. Edward SALTER born ABT 1735 married an Ann BONNER b. ABT 1740 from Beaufort County, NC. John HARDEE (1707-1784) is an interesting fellow. He married Susannah TYSON. Look at this deed. <<< 29 Apr 1783 | John Cannon => Farnifold Cannon, son | 140 A; Ð50. Former owner: Col. John Hardee. | Bk.I-103 >>> Farnifold is a big name in the Timothy GREEN (he married a FARNIFOLD) family of Northumberland County, VA, later, New Bern Craven County, NC. Their son, Farnifold GREEN, Sr. married a Hannah KENT and their son, James GREEN, Jr. married Mary GRAY and their son was Col. Joseph GREEN who married Sarah WHITFIELD, d/o William Jr. and Rachel BRYAN and 1st cousin of Elizabeth WHITFIELD who married Aaron DANIEL. The KENTS are tied to the WADSWORTHS who, in turn, are tied to the WISE family of Greene County, NC. All of this bunch smells to me to be of the same collateral bunch but we do not have it laid out, correctly, in my opinion. The one thing I noticed about all of these Esqr. folks, is they were all in their later years - 40-50 years of age or older. The William Daniel PINKET connection also makes me I wonder if the CASON-DANIEL relationship went back to Princess Anne County, VA, where CASONS and CANNONS were from and this Robert DANIEL is not out of the Tyrrell County, NC DANIELS but one from that area. Does anyone have any thoughts on this bunch? . John R. Clarke Thomasville, GA

Mike, I see wills all the time where girls are listed in the wills of their parents by their maiden names or just listed as my daughters, Sarah, Jane, Martha, etc. I see nothing unusual in this. This will could have also been written some years before they were actually married and never updated. One of the chillen of Hillary CASON, Sr. and Sarah Barrow ORMAND was Wyriott CASON, her father's given name. I would assume there were some deeds between Sarah and one or more of her parents which should help clear up this assignment. John R.

Georgia, Sorry I did not get around to answering this post until today but that Ephraim DANIEL sure looks like the Ephraim that was a son of Joseph DANIEL and Sarah BARNES of Edgecombe County, NC. Isaac is also a name in this overall DANIEL line, too. Ephraim's grandmother was a ROGERS, too. That is my guess. I do not have any other information on Ephraim. One thing I noticed is that David is a name around this bunch, too, and this may be part of the Stephen DANIEL who married the IRWIN girls at his uncle David DANIEL's home, that we have mentioned, as of late. I think that, too, also occurred in Alabama. I have always felt the DANIELS that are tied to the BARNES Family, especially in the Washington County, GA area, were probably a part of this same overall Edgecombe area DANIEL family. The ROGERS family seems to be tied only to the DANIEL family in either Edgecombe and Martin but these families were so close it is hard to separate them from each other, sometimes. The DANIEL family in Northampton and parts of the Simon DANIEL family out of Edgecombe also have a tendency to use a lot of weird given names, unlike the DANIELS in Pitt. When I see names, like Ephraim, Ezekiel, Elijah, Elias, Enoch, etc (Note: they seem to love given names starting with an E.), I look at these families, specifically.. However, I also think you can throw in just about all of the biblical names, Abraham, Matthew, Mark, Luke, John, Joseph etc. into this bunch. When I see a DANIEL family that does not have at least some of this set of non-standard given names, and their names are the more of less standards, Thomas, William, John, Sarah Elizabeth and Martha, I look in a different DANIEL family for these folks. That's my two bits, anyway.... John R.

Bibb (married Mourning Clark)>Bibb's aunt was Nancy Bibb who married Martin Key. Not one - but two of Nancy Bibb's and Martin Key's children married Daniel's: "Elizabeth Key" married Josiah Daniel & James Key married Mary Daniel. Both the Daniel's were of the same line. Adding in Robert Daniel of SC, makes just too many Daniel lines converging. Ruth in Portland, OR ----- Original Message ----- From: "John R.

Vicki, There are only two DANIEL family that come out of SC, to my knowledge. The Robert DANIELL family of Charleston and the John DANIEL the Shipwright family, also of Charleston. I would not bet against these two being related, either. I have seen that Barzilla DANIEL information, before but never could get a handle on it. I know the name, Barzilla, is tied to the CROWELL family of Martha's Vineyard, MA and the DUNHAMS and the CROWELLS were tied, together in MA. We know there were lots of New England folks down in the Charleston area and I would not bet against the Samuel ADAMS family being one of them. Gov. James MOORE of SC stated his sister, Dolly, was married to a CLARK in Boston and we know that one of Samuel ADAMS boys died in Barbados. Most of these early SC folks belonged to mariner families and they had links all over the place - England, the islands, New England and VA, as well as coastal NC. The problem we have today is -- a lot of these folks moved south to be with other members of their original family who had stayed in VA, NC or SC and we now think they came from where they later migrated to and such was not the case. I know the POTTERS and TILTONS were New England families and they moved from New England, through New York and down to the NJ area and I will bet, south from there. I know my maternal DAMES (who were from Newington, RI) and WEEKS (from Falmouth, Barnstable County, MA), also did, just that from the same area. I also know that Col. Ebenezer FOLSOM of Edgecombe County, NC who married one of the DANIEL girls in NC was from Ashford, Windham County, Connecticut. What I find interesting in this return address is that my wife's GROSVENOR family was from Pomfret, Windham County, CT and she is an ADAMS descendant of Boston. All of these First Families of the United States, and all of these families I have mentioned fall into this category, had links all up an down the Atlantic Seaboard. Mrs. Barbara Pierce BUSH is a descendant of this WEEKS family of Falmouth and her husband, George, is a GROSVENOR descendant, through the PRESCOTTS. .Mrs. BUSH's PIERCE line is out of Capt. Benjamin PIERCE and another of his descendants marry right into my Richter-Daniel bunch in Madison, GA in 1900. I think what happened is cousins or siblings moved to different places in the colonies where they married, raised their chillen and these chillen or their grand chillen married right back into the families of these original cousins or siblings. Now, several hundred years or so later we now think these parents families were different families and they were not. There is one thing you have to always remember in most marriages before the RW -- they more often than not married family even if they had to go a long way to get them, even back to England, Scotland or Ireland. As in my case, besides all of the VA and NC links I have in my bunch, I have links to New England, New Jersey, Charleston (a lot) and the islands. I think there is some rhyme and reason for these links, too. This was not an Ellis Island crowd. John R.

Good Morning, I know quite a bit about the Henry WYCHE (1738-1806) and Frances BREWER family of Greenville County, VA. His father was Peter WYCHE and his mother an Ann SCOTT. i.. Peter WYCHE (B. ABT 1762) married Judith CLARK, d/o Christopher CLARK and Millicent TERRELL of Albemarle County, VA, later, Wilkes and Elbert County, GA. The CLARKS descend from Capt. Christopher CLARK and Penelope BOLLING, granddaughter of the Earl of Shaftsbury. ii. William WYCHE married Elizabeth MALONE iii. Rebecca WYCHE (ABT 1768-1829) married David WALTON, s/o the Hon. Isaac Rowe WALTON, Esq. and Elizabeth LEDBETTER of Meherin Parish, Brunswick County, VA. David and Rebecca later migrated to Huntsville, Madison County, AL. iv. Sarah "Sally" WYCHE married Gary SILLS and they stayed in the Greenville County, VA area according to my information. v. George WYCHE married Agatha CLARK, d/o Christopher CLARK and Millicent TERRELL and sister of Judith who married Peter WYCHE. vi. Tilly WYCHE married Benjamin H. WALKER vii. Henry WYCHE, Jr. married Elizabeth WALTON, d/o Isaac Rowe WALTON and Elizabeth LEDBETTER and sister of David who married Rebecca WYCHE. The RICHTER family of Madison, Morgan County, GA has a portrait of Rebecca Wyche WALTON (1768-1829) painted in the early years of the 19th Century and I will assure you, she is not "of color." The reason they have this portrait is because her great granddaughter, Sally WALTON (1871-1899), married Charles Woodruff RICHTER, Sr. in 1889. Sally's mother was a WINSOR and her father, David Anderson WALTON of Bolingbroke, Bibb County, GA and her grandparents were Henry Wyche WALTON and Louisiana Peterson REDDING, also of Bolingbroke, Bibb County, GA. Another branch of this WYCHE family were Henry, Sr.'s brothers, Col. George WYCHE, II who married Patience CLARK, a descendant of this same Capt. Christopher CLARK family. George and his children moved to Richmond County, GA and some of their children moved to Thomas and Decatur County, GA where they tie into the RAINES, MITCHELLS, RAIFORDS, etc. The WYCHES descend from Gentleman George WYCHE I (1685-1757) and Sarah of Surry County, VA. This intrigued me in your message. << Feb. 13, p304 John West Indian, son of Reuben, age 12 March next bound to James Williams to learn trade of house joiner. << We know that Reuben DANIEL was in the Pendleton District, SC area, don't we? What surprised me was the "West Indian" description tied to this DANIEL boy. West Indian usually meant, someone from Barbados, St. Martin, St. Croix, etc. We also know that others have said this Reuben DANIEL bunch were from VA. As I remember, they were out of the Woodson-DANIEL bunch or one of those lines out of York County, VA. What is interesting is there was a John DANIEL and Alice of Barbados.
