Thank you for sharing that data, I will look into the two Daniel lines you mention and see if I can find anything? I would like your thoughts as to the Daniel families of Prince George county, VA,? Especiallly the John Daniel Sr. who seemed to migrate to Henry county, VA, I think he was a carpenter? If my memory servers me correctly, but I could be mistaken, My brain has failed me more often than once? LOL, They were supposeldy immigrants from England, this line to me is epecially hard to trace regarding the Henry county, VA. connections. "John R. Clarke" <jclarke@rose.net> wrote: 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.

You could be correct in your assumption of Reuben Daniel, The Pendiltion District keeps my eyes open upon the fact that John Daniel, Jeremiah Daniel, Basil Daniel were the as well, or they were in Pendilton District 1790 on the census. The St. Croix bunch you refer to? Barzilla Daniel if I remember correctly was there much early than those mentioned about, but could be related. As the your Wyche family, I know nothing of them, I just posted what a lady had found in her research in South Carolina, she was looking of her indian heritage, I do know that the Haliwa indian tribe in Warren and Halifax county, NC. do have the family surname of Daneil tied to there tribe in the 1700's and later, Their Daniel line came out of South Carolina into North Carolina and some of them went to Virginia and Tennessee. The geneaolgist there in the tribe won't tell you all the Daniel members, you have to find them on Deeds in North Carolina especially Halifax and Warren and then send you family ! outline and if you connect they will help fill in the blanks.

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.

If RLD had a son Robert we know very little about him, or he died early as speculated, or he is right under our nose? The beat goes on! Payne ----- Original Message ----- From: "John R.

That's Mike's supposition. We know there was a Robert DANIEL, Jr. in Pitt in 1779 and that tells me he has to be a son of a Robert. Did Robert Lanier DANIEL have a son named Robert? That, we do not know. None was mentioned in his will but Robert DANIEL of Martin was not mentioned in his father's will, either. I know that some will say the they just used the "Junior" to distinguish this younger Robert DANEL from an older Robert DANIEL but I tend to follow the principle of "Occam's Razor" when faced with such a situation, which means the simplest explanation is usually the best one. In other words, I take it at face value -- he was the son of a Robert. I do not know Paul's Francis Marion DANIEL and the only Francis Marion DANIEL I carry information on was born 1788, the son of William DANIEL (1745-1836) and Elizabeth SKINNER (ABT 1747-1837) of Washington County, GA. Francis was a brother of Abel DANIEL of Washington County, GA and the story on this DANIEL line was -- they came over from Ireland to New England, somewhere, and William married Elizabeth SKINNER in NY State, and after the RW, they relocated to Washington County, GA.

A lady posted this information on the Pendilton county, South Carolina district mailing list. It caught my attention when I saw the name John Daniel. Here is what she posted? I was researching NC & SC lost the first half but here is what I found after moving: p400 8 March 1757 John Daniel vs Solomon Jeffery Indians Mary Jeffery wife of Solomon Jeffery Indians 10 May 1774 p269 Thomas Fisherman Indian, Dec. 14-Sept 1774... Feb. 13, p304 John West Indian, son of Reuben, age 12 March next bound to James Williams to learn trade of house joiner. Prince George County Court Records 25 Nov. 1719 (King George Co.) p719 Henry Barnes kept Indian child 9 months Joan Kennedy Indian, 2 years and 4 months to serve Wm Pettsworth etc until 21.... March Court p413 1729 Thomas Indian pet... re Eleanor Addison see p139 for the rest. pet's mother was Indian see p201 reference Thomas's family also see p304. this is all i have, i know nothing about these people as none are my ancestors. Then I found this, this family is not to be confused with Simon and Osborne Jeffreys of Franklin, NC. If I remember correctly, this Orange county, NC Jeffreys are from the Owacaneechi Tribe of Haliwa Indians. This Parker Jeffries wasn't a person of color, he did descend from the Haliwa Indian tribe. Also it mentions a Stephen Jeffres bringing suit against a John Daniel. 1. The trustees of Zenia Township denied Parker Jeffries the right to vote because he was a "person of color." He sued them in court and provided depositions from witnesses who had been neighbors of the Jeffries family in Greensville County in order to prove that he was white and Indian. Sally Robinson deposed that Sally Jeffries "claimed to be of White and Indian and I never heard anything to the contrary." Henry Wyche deposed that he believed Andrew Jeffries was "of Indian and White" (blood). Susan Wooten deposed that she grew up near the family where they lived in Greensville County. (She was probably married to or a member of the mixed-race Wooten family who lived just across the state line in Northampton County, North Carolina). Parker lost his case in the local court but won his appeal to the supreme court of Ohio which ruled that: There have been, even in this state, since its organization, many persons of the precise breed of this plaintiff, I mean the offspring o! f whites and half-breed Indians, who have exercised political privileges and filled offices, and worthily discharged the duties of officers. One such is now a clerk of this court, and two are now members of this bar. In 1831 in the case of Polly Gray v. State of Ohio, 4 Ohio, 354, and in 1833, in the case of Williamson v. School Directors, etc., Wright, 178, it was held that, in the constitution, and the laws on this subject, there were enumerated three descriptions of persons--whites, blacks and mulattoes--upon the two last of whom disabilities rested; that the mulatto was the middle term between the extremes, or the offspring of white and black; that all nearer white than black, or of the grade between the mulattoes and the whites, were entitled to enjoy every political and social privilege of the white citizen [Edwin M. Stanton, Reporter, Reports of Cases Argued and Determined in the Supreme Court of Ohio (1873), XI:318-21 JEFFERY FAMILY Members of the Jeffery family were i. Elizabeth, born say 1700, an Indian living in Northampton County, Virginia, on 12 January 1730/1 when she petitioned the court to order her former husband Thomas Fisherman, also an Indian, to return a mare and horse which were her property before their marriage [Orders 1729-32, 68; Mihalyka, Loose Papers I:237]. ii. Thomas, born say 1710, an Indian sued on 14 July 1736 in Northampton County, Virginia, by William Satchell for a debt of 500 pounds of tobacco [Orders 1732-42, 224]. He was tithable in Northampton County in 1744 adjoining Joseph Jeffery [Bell, Northampton County Tithables, 357]. He was allowed 200 pounds from the county levy on 2 November 1747 [Orders 1742-8]. 1 iii. Mary, born say 1710. 1. Mary Jeffery, born say 1710, died before 9 March 1773 when Daniel Eshon was granted administration on her Northampton County estate [Minutes 1771-7, 192]. Her inventory totaled 177 pounds, and included 45 pounds cash on hand, butter, hog fat, good pewter, knives and forks, 10 hoes, 3 plows, 30 cattle, 18 pigs, 22 hogs, 2 sheep, 22 barrels of corn, 3 horses, 6 ducks, 3 geese, 4 turkeys, and potato seed. Solomon Jeffery, Rachel Jeffery, Mary Jeffery, Thomas Fisherman, Mary Fisherman, Thomas Pool, and Abraham Lang were buyers at the sale of the estate. The account of the sales totaled 196 pounds and included a cart and wheels, beds, furniture and linen wheels. About 23 pounds was distributed to seven unnamed children [W&I 25:167-9, 262-6]. Mary was probably farming land on the Gingaskin reservation. She may have been the mother of i. Stephen, born say 1729, an Indian sued by an Indian named John Daniel in a suit that was agreed in Northampton County on 11 March 1755 [Orders 1753-8, 199]. ii. Solomon1, born say 1731, sued by William Teague on 15 December 1752 for trespass, assault and battery. He was called an Indian when he was sued for trespass, assault and battery by another Indian named John Daniel on 8 March 1757. George Powell sued him for a 1 pound, 7 shilling debt on 15 February 1758. On 14 July 1762 his wife Mary Jeffery ("Indian") took the oath of the peace against him and he was ordered to post 20 pounds security for his good behavior towards her [Orders 1751-3, 210; 1753-8, 400, 406, 482; Minutes 1761-5, 35]. He bought twenty-three items at the 8 February 1774 sale of Mary Jeffery's estate, including pigs and three harrow hoes. iii. Rachel, taxable on a horse in Northampton County in 1800 [Personal Property Tax List, p.15]. iv. Joseph, tithable in Northampton County in 1744 [Bell, Northampton County Tithables, 357]. He was sued by Peter Hogg for debt on 11 September 1750 [Orders 1748-51, 270]. The court bound out his son Jesse Jeffery to Adiah Milby to be a marriner on 11 August 1773 [Minutes 1771-7, 156]. v. Thomas2, bound to William Wood on 10 August 1773 [Minutes 1771-7, 151]. They were the ancestors of i. Solomon2, born say 1767, married Tinsey Jacob, 16 January 1788 Northampton County bond, William Satchell, Jr., security. Tincy Jeffery was a "N"(egro) counted in Northampton County in 1813 [Waldrep, 1813 Tax List]. ii. William, married Polly Bingham, 26 January 1803 Northampton County bond, Samuel Beavans security. iii. Littleton, married Nancy Collins, 18 September 1810 Northampton County bond, James Jacob security. In 1813 he was an Indian living in Indian Town (the former Gingaskin reservation land) in 1813 with a "free negro" woman in his household [Waldrep, 1813 Tax List]. iv. Sophia, married Thomas Carter, 7 December 1803 Northampton County bond, Peter Toyer security. Sophia Carter was a "Negro" living in Indian Town (the former Gingaskin reservation land) in 1813 [Waldrep, 1813 Tax List]. v. Polly, married Nathan Drighouse (Driggers), 24 July 1810 Northampton County bond, Abraham Lang security. Nathan was a "Negro" living in Indian Town in 1813 [Waldrep, 1813 Tax List]. JEFFRIES FAMILY 1. John1 Jeffries, born say 1670, was a "Negroe man" belonging to Captain Robert Randall on 5 July 1698 when Randall brought him before the Surry County court to declare him a free man [DW 5:157; Haun, Surry County Court Records, V:211]. He was probably the "John Negroe" for whom Captain Randall was taxable in 1698. He was taxable in his own household in Surry County from 1699 to 1703 near William Sweat [Magazine of Virginia Genealogy vol.24, no.2, 69, 75, 83; no.3, 69, 72; DW 5:289]. He and William Sweat produced accounts against the public for fifty pounds of tobacco in Surry County court on 21 October 1713 [Orders 1713-18, 14]. On 18 February 1722 he received a patent for 100 acres in Surry County on the south side of Blackwater Swamp and north side of Seacock Swamp and another 70 acres adjoining this land and Richard Fitzpatrick on 30 August 1743 [Patents 11:188; 21:508]. He was called John Jeffries, Sr., in his 3 November 1746 Albemarle Parish, Surry County, will, re! corded 16 June 1752, which named his daughter Martha Jeffries as executrix and gave her his land on Seacock Swamp. He also mentioned his daughter Mary Powell, left a gun to his grandson John Jeffreys and left his clothes to his grandson Benjamin Tan. If his daughter Martha died without heirs, the land was to pass to his grandson John Jeffrys [DW&c 1738-54, 798]. His children were i. Martha. 2 ii. John2, Jr., born say 1690. iii. Mary Powell (wife of Stephen Powell). iv. a daughter, wife of Anthony Tann who died before 20 February 1744 when the Surry County court ordered the churchwardens of Albemarle Parish to bind out his son Benjamin Tann [Orders 1744-49, 11, 22]. 2. John2 Jeffries, Jr., born say 1690, was called John Jeffries "the Younger" on 14 December 1712 when he purchased 128 acres on the south side of Blackwater Swamp bounded by the College Line in Surry County [DW&c 6:127]. (His wife?) Elizabeth Jeffers died 16 August 1745, and he died on 14 January 1745/6 (informant John Jeffers) [Albemarle Parish, Surry and Sussex County, Parish Register 1739-1778, 161]. By his 24 December 1745 Surry County will, proved 19 March 1745/6, he left all his land on the north east side of Clift and Tar Kiln Branches and the College Plantation to his son Joseph and named his other children: Richard, John, Lucy, and Rebecca. Joseph was to care for his brother Richard until he reached twenty-one years of age. He allowed his unnamed father the use of the land he was living on until his death when it was to pass to his son John [DW&c 1738-54, 523]. His children were 3 i. Joseph, born say 1715. ii. Lucy. 4 iii. John4, born say 1720. iv. Rebecca, born 13 March 1728/9, daughter of John Jeffries, Jr., and Eliza. his wife. v. Richard, born 26 August 1732, son of John Jeffries, Jr., and his wife Eliza. vi. __ne (Anne), born 6 May 1738, daughter of John Jeffries, Jr., and Eliza his wife [Albemarle Parish, Surry and Sussex County Parish Register 1739-1778, part 1, 7, 38]. 3. Joseph Jeffries, born say 1715, received land on the northeast side of Clift and Tar Kiln Branches as well as the "College Plantation" by his father's 19 March 1745/6 Surry County will. He was also to care for his younger brother Richard who was not yet twenty-one years old [DW&c 1738-54, 798]. He sold 100 acres on the south side of Blackwater Swamp in Surry County, Virginia, on 10 September 1747 [DB 5:124]. He returned an account of his father's estate to November 1747 Surry County court, but in March 1747/8 Thomas Alsobrook and John Anderson, his securities, complained to the court of his "ill conduct" and the court ordered him to deliver up the estate to them or provide the security bond himself [Orders 1744-9, 233-4]. He may have been the Joseph Jeffries who was sued in Brunswick County, Virginia court by Peter Cumbo in June 1749. The suit was dismissed when both parties failed to appear [Orders 1743-49, 523]. In July 1749 the Surry County court awarded him four po! unds damages in his suit for trespass against James Winkles [Orders 1749-51, 597]. He was a taxable head of household with (his brother?) John Jeffries in Granville County, North Carolina, in the summary list for 1755 [CR 44.701.23], and he and his wife Ruth were "mulatto" taxables in the Cross Road District of Granville County in James Paine's list in Robert Collier's household in 1761 and in Thomas Hawtorn's household in 1762 [CR 44.701]. He and John Jeffreys were insolvent taxpayers in Bute County in 1769 [Miscellaneous Tax Records in N.C. Genealogy, 2431]. Joseph was taxable in Warren County on an assessment of 59 pounds in 1779 and taxable in Captain Colclough's district from 1781 to 1785: 610 pounds assessment in 1781, 83 pounds in 1782, taxable on 140 acres and poll tax in 1784, 2 polls in 1785, perhaps identical to Joseph Jefferson who was taxable on 196 acres and no polls in 1788 [1779 Assessments, p.2; Tax List 1781-1801, 17, 27, 63, 81, 97, 156; L.P. 64.1, p.19]. 4. John4 Jeffries, born say 1720, son of John2 Jeffries, received a gun by the 3 November 1746 Surry County will of his grandfather John1 Jeffries [D&W 1738-54, 798]. Sussex County was formed from the part of Surry County where the Jeffries lived. John sued William Bryan(t) in Sussex County court for debt in April 1754, and he was sued by Howell Briggs and Arthur Richardson for a total of about 10 pounds currency in December 1754. He was not found by the sheriff so his estate (including nine cattle, a bed and furniture, a chest and gun and dishes) was attached and sold [Haun, Sussex County Records, 100, 114, 194]. On 12 February 1755 he sold 140 acres in Sussex County on the south side of Blackwater Swamp adjoining the College Line which was the land his grandfather John1 Jeffries patented, part of a "Survey made by John Jeffries Deceased" on 13 August 1743 [Sussex County DB A:84]. He was taxable in Granville County, North Carolina, in the household of his brother Joseph ! Jeffries in 1755, and he and his wife Mary were "mulatto" taxables in the Cross Road District of Granville County, North Carolina, in James Paine's list in 1761 and 1762 [CR 44.701]. This part of Granville County became Bute County in 1769, and he and Joseph Jeffreys were insolvent taxpayers in Bute County in 1769 [Miscellaneous Tax Records in N.C. Genealogy, 2431]. He was taxable on only his own poll in Bute County in 1771 [Tax List CR.015.70001, p.12 of pamphlet] and taxable in Warren County on an assessment of 20 pounds in Captain Shearing's District in 1782 [Tax List 1781-1801, 46]. Perhaps Joseph and John Jeffries were the ancestors of some of those members of the Jeffries family counted as "other free" and "free colored" in Orange and Caswell Counties, North Carolina: i. Jacob, born say 1760, taxable in Orange County in 1790 [NC:95] and head of an Orange County household of 9 "other free" in 1800 [NC:514]. He recorded a certificate in Orange County on 24 July 1791 that he was the "Mulatto Jacob" who received a discharge for twelve months service as a soldier in the Revolution [NCGSJ XI:115]. ii. John6, born about 1759, listed as a volunteer Continental soldier from Bute County in 1779: born about 1759 in North Carolina, 5'6" tall, dark hair and dark eyes [NCGSJ XV:109]. iii. Hudson, born before 1776, head of a Caswell County household of 10 "free colored" in 1820 [NC:67]. iv. Reuben, married Kissiah Hawly, 30 May 1808 Caswell County bond, Miles Scott bondsman. Reuben was head of an Orange County, North Carolina household of 2 "free colored" in 1820 [NC:354]. Miles Scott was head of an Orange County household of 3 "other free" in 1810 [NC:817]. vi. Elias, born 1776-1794, head of an Orange County, North Carolina household of 4 "free colored" in 1820 [NC:406]. Other Members of the Jeffries family in Virginia were i. Margaret, born say 1690, was paid 3 shilings, 9 pence on 16 September 1719 by the Surry County estate of Charles Savidge for her attendance at his funeral. The December 1722 account of the Surry County estate of Samuel Thompson included a 17 shilling payment to her, a 9 shillings payment to William Sweat, and William Sweat's payment of his rent [Deeds, Wills 1715-30, 219, 456-7]. She and her daughter Margaret Jeffries, her husband William Sweat, and Francis Locus and his wife Hannah lost their right to 190 acres on the north side of the Meherrin River in Southampton County in a dispute with Arthur Taylor heard at the Council of Virginia on 8 November 1753. Taylor received a patent for this land bordering Turraroe Creek on 24 January 1756 [Hall, Executive Journals of the Council, V:448; Patents 32:667]. She was called Margaret Sweat in Southampton County on on 12 June 1755 when the court ordered that she be exempt from paying levies [Orders 1754-9, 94]. 5 ii. John3, born say 1718. 5. John3 Jeffries, born say 1718, was called John Jefferson when he was granted 84 acres on Cattail Swamp in Brunswick County adjoining John Persons on 12 March 1739 [Patents 18:553-4]. He was called Jefferson in the early land records but called John Jeffres/ Jefferis when he voted in Brunswick County in June 1748 [DB 3:508, 510]. And the family was called Jeffries when they voted in Greensville County in 1792 and in the land records in the late 1790s and thereafter. On 26 May 1748 he purchased 228 acres in Brunswick County bounded by the north side of Cattail Creek from John Person of Isle of Wight County, heir to John Person of Surry County who was granted the land in 1726 [DB 3:447; Greensville DB 1:450]. He was among the freeholders of Brunswick County ordered to work on a road under Littleberry Robertson on 27 March 1759 [Orders 1757-9, 314]. His land on Cattail Creek was on the west side of Fountain Creek in the part of Brunswick County which became Greensville Cou! nty in 1781. He was called John Jeffries on 28 June 1787 when the Greensville County court discharged him from paying taxes (due to old age) starting from the year 1786 [Orders 1781-9, 332]. John and his wife Judy Jefferson made a deed of gift of 55 acres to their son Simon in 1796 and made deeds of sale to (their sons?) Andrew, Simon, Nathan, and John in Greensville County between 1789 and 1798. They sold 50 acres of land adjoining their land in Greensville County to Andrew Jeffers on 4 February 1789, and sold 40 acres to Nathan Jeffries for 20 pounds on 23 January 1798. By the terms of the deed Nathan was not to take possession of the land until the death of John Jeffries. On 27 December 1798 John and his wife Judy Jeffries also sold two parcels of land adjoining theirs to Andrew Jeffries, one of 40 acres for 9 pounds and another of 84 acres for 50 pounds. On 25 April 1792 they sold 45 acres on Person's Branch adjoining William Robinson to John Jeffers, Junior, for 3 pounds [DB ! 2:487, 498, 505-6, 520, 524]. John Jeffries' wife Judy was identified as Judy Lane by their great grandson Parker Jeffries (son of Sally Jeffries) in a Greene County, Ohio Court suit in 1841 [Parker Jeffries v. Ankeny]. Judy was probably the granddaughter of Elizabeth Lane who confessed in Surry County, Virginia court on 7 January 1690/1 that she had two "Molato" children by "Nicholas Sessums his Negro Man" [Surry Orders 1682-91, 771, 777]. John's children were 6 i. John5, born say 1745. 7 ii. Drury, born say 1750. iii. Shadrack, born say 1754, voted in Greensville County on 26 April 1792 [DB 1:450]. He was surety for the 24 July 1794 Greensville County, Virginia marriage bond of (his niece) Grief Jeffries. His 12 May 1812 Greensville County will was proved 12 October the same year. He left all his lands to his wife Sarah and at her death to Mary Jefferson (Jeffries). And he left his property to his wife and at her death to his brother Nathan with one-twelfth to go to Sarah Wadkins (Watkins). His wife Sarah and brother Nathan were executors [WB 2:267-8]. 8 v. Simon, born say 1756. iv. Nathan, married Clary Norton, 23 June 1791 Greensville County bond, Repts Steward surety. He was a taxable "Mulatto" in Greensville County in 1813 [Waldrep, 1813 Tax List] and head of a Greensville County household of 9 "free colored" in 1820 [VA:263]. 6. John5 Jeffries, born say 1745, called John Jeffers, Jr., on 25 April 1792 when he purchased 45 acres in Greensville County on Person's Branch adjoining William Robinson's line from (his father?) John Jeffers, Sr. [DB 2:520]. He paid Greensville County tax for (his sons?) Isaac, Thomas and Harris Jeffries [Personal Property Tax List]. His son Thomas appeared in Orange County, North Carolina Court on 26 May 1837 to obtain a pension for his father's services in the Revolution. He stated that his father was born in Halifax County, Virginia, in 1733 (perhaps both place and date an error), was drafted in the fall of the years 1780 and 1781, that his father was very infirm and blind in December 1832 when he moved him to Orange County, and that his father died 4 December 1834 leaving no widow [M805-468]. John was the father of i. Isaac. ii. Thomas, born say 1768, married Silvey Hathcock, 8 October 1789 Greensville County bond, by Rev. William Garner [Ministers Returns p.147]. He was head of an Orange County household of 9 "other free" in 1810 [NC:817] and 7 "free colored" in 1820 [NC:406]. iii. Harris. 7. Andrew Jeffries, born say 1750 (before 1776), was called Andrew Jeffers when he was discharged from paying taxes in Greensville County in 1812 [Orders 1810-15, 253]. He purchased 50 acres in Meherrin Parish, Greensville County, adjoining Shadrack, Simon, and John Jeffers from John Jeffers on 4 February 1789, purchased 30 acres on the southside of Jordan's Road adjoining the land of John Jefferson (Jeffries) on 20 April 1790 and another 30 acres on the southside of Jordan's Road on 28 April 1796. And he purchased two parcels of land from John Jeffries and his wife Judy on 27 December 1798: one for 9 pounds and another of 84 acres for 50 pounds. He voted in Greensville County on 26 April 1792. He and his wife Mary sold 12-1/4 acres adjoining their land for $61 on 24 July 1815 [DB 1:292, 449; 2:359, 524; 4:520]. His 16 February 1821 Greensville County will was proved in October 1821. He left the part of his land adjoining David Robinson to his daughter Sally and the remai! nder on the southside to his daughters Linch and Morning. He named his surviving children: John, Drury, Littleton, Linch, Jancy, Grief, Morning, and Sally. Maclin Jeffries, Sally Jeffries and Grief Hathcock were buyers at the sale of his estate [WB 3:240, 299]. Andrew's wife was identified as Mary Dole in the Greene County, Ohio court suit of his grandson Parker Jeffries (son of Sally Jeffries) in 1841 [Parker Jeffries v. Ankeny].(1) Mary may have been the daughter of William Dale(s), head of a Northampton County, North Carolina household of 10 "other free" in 1790 [NC:76]. Andrew was the father of i. John7, born about 1765, head of an Orange County household of 5 "free colored" in 1820 [NC:342]. He married Dilly Ballard, 8 December 1824 Orange County bond, Andrew and Eaton Jeffers bondsmen. He was about sixty-seven years old and living in Orange County on 26 November 1832 when he applied for a pension for his services in the Revolution. He stated that he enlisted in Brunswick County, Virginia, in 1780 and resided there until 1808 when he moved to Orange County. He made a second declaration in Orange County on 19 October 1837 that he had served in the place of his father Andrew Jeffreys. His widow Delilah was a resident of Alamance County on 19 November 1853 when she applied for a survivor's pension, testifying that they were married in 1822 and that her husband died on 15 April 1845. She was said to have been about eighty years old when she testified again in Alamance County on 11 April 1855 [M804-1409, frame 0363]. ii. Andrew/Drury2, born about 1768, married Silvia Scott, 28 January 1790 Greensville County bond, Andrew Jeffries surety. They were married by Rev. William Garner whose return was dated 10 Nov. 1789 [Minister's Returns, p.19]. He was head of an Orange County, North Carolina household of 13 "free colored" in 1820 [NC:342]. He purchased 110 acres on Jordans Creek in Orange County from Robert Scott on 8 November 1832 [DB pp.254-5]. He made a deposition in Orange County on 10 November 1832 that he lived in Brunswick County when (his brother) John Jeffries left home to serve in the Revolution. He made a similar depostion in 1833 that he was born in Brunswick County about 1766, resided there until 1813 when he moved to North Carolina, and that he recollected that his brother returned home from service in 1781. He was deposed again on 19 October 1837 when he stated that he was about sixty-nine years old and the brother of John Jeffries. On 19 November 1853 he made a deposition for! the survivor's pension application of John's widow Delilah Jeffries, stating that John and Delilah were married in 1822 [M804-1409, frames 375, 382, 425]. iii.

Payne, I do not think the CASON girl married Thomas DANIEL, son of RLD and whomever. That's Mike's supposition. We know there was a Robert DANIEL, Jr. in Pitt in 1779 and that tells me he has to be a son of a Robert. Did Robert Lanier DANIEL have a son named Robert? That, we do not know. None was mentioned in his will but Robert DANIEL of Martin was not mentioned in his father's will, either. I know that some will say the they just used the "Junior" to distinguish this younger Robert DANEL from an older Robert DANIEL but I tend to follow the principle of "Occam's Razor" when faced with such a situation, which means the simplest explanation is usually the best one. In other words, I take it at face value -- he was the son of a Robert. I do not know Paul's Francis Marion DANIEL and the only Francis Marion DANIEL I carry information on was born 1788, the son of William DANIEL (1745-1836) and Elizabeth SKINNER (ABT 1747-1837) of Washington County, GA. Francis was a brother of Abel DANIEL of Washington County, GA and the story on this DANIEL line was -- they came over from Ireland to New England, somewhere, and William married Elizabeth SKINNER in NY State, and after the RW, they relocated to Washington County, GA. I know this bunch could not in anyway be related to my bunch because this bunch lived, forever, and my bunch died like flies. John R.

* Veterans Affairs Puts Over Three Million Cemetery Records Online The Department of Veterans Affairs announced yesterday that they've put a database of over three million veterans' cemetery records online. The records cover veterans and dependents buried in VA cemeteries (there are 120 of those) since the civil war. There are also some records of burials in state veterans' cemeteries, and burials in Arlington National Cemetery from 1999 to the present. They're available at http://www.cem.va.gov . The announcement promised that this database would be updated nightly. Choose the Nationwide Gravesite Locator link at the left to search the database. You may search by first name and last name, with modifiers to specify "exact match" or "begins with". An advanced search allows for many more options, including middle name, date of birth, date of death, and cemetery. Search results include the rank and military branch of the person (if they are military, this information is at the top of the listing. If they are a spouse or dependent of a military person, this is noted at the bottom of their listing.) Listings also include veteran service dates (if known), date of birth, date of death, date of internment, location of the gravesite, and a link to and contact information for the cemetery. Not all information is available for a listing, especially the civil war veterans.

Hi Payne, I don't believe that we have discussed my G-Grandfather on this list. Francis Marion DANIEL was born December 12, 1863 in Laurens County, Georgia. He remained in Laurens (in and around Dublin) all his life, and died October 24, 1948. He married (1) Sally DIXON, daughter of Thomas DIXON and Frances CANNON. Sally was born March 26, 1864, and died July 29, 1891 in Dublin, GA. He married (2) Rachel Viola ADAMS December 26, 1897, daughter of Abilene Horry ADAMS and Elsie Jane FORDHAM. Rachel was born June 28, 1876 in Laurens County, Georgia and died April 15, 1975 in Laurens County, Georgia. Francis was one of the founders of the 1st National Bank of Dublin. In 1898, he was elected as Tax Collector for Laurens County, GA. He built a number of commercial buildings in Dexter, GA where he was a merchant for over 25 years. Francis was the 2nd son of James Wesley DANIEL and Mary Elizabeth WATKINS (whom I have discussed on this board a number of times), his other siblings being: James W. DANIEL, Jr.(b. Jan 15, 1861; d. November 28, 1900) who married Martha Ann DAVIS, daughter of Elisha DAVIS and Nancy Elizabeth BRACK Anna Elizabeth DANIEL (b. July 17, 1865; d. November 11, 1930) who married Everett MONTFORD George Thomas DANIEL (b. February 05, 1867; d. February 03, 1887) I have more if you want it...... PD

Mike, Yes, I have copies of all of this, thanks, anyway. I also think it was HUMPHREY or HUMPHRIES and not PUMPHREY but that is just my opinion. The HUMPHREY family was around this total bunch, as were the BYNUMS. BTW, her name was "Suk" in the documents I have seen and I think this was probably a nickname for Susannah. I do think this Robert DANIEL, Jr. was my Robert, though, and he may or may not have joined the army but, instead, got his family to cobble up that non-probated will that I have seen listed by some for him. I also think he got out of Dodge in a hurry, too. <grin> This kind of reminds me of my younger days, too, but I ended up in Parris Island, SC and not Greene County, NC. <grin> And, her name was Wilson and not "Suk." <grin> John R.

Payne, The significance is -- Hillary's niece married one of these DANIEL boys from Pitt and this whole bunch is tied together, both in NC and later in GA. I do not think we are going to find the answers that many of us seek looking at these DANIELS because if we were -- we would already have found it. The answers, I think, will be in their collaterals and not in their main line. As I have said many times, it is easy to cobble up a genealogy over one line but it is difficult to do it over several lines. The greater the number of lines involved, the more difficult it becomes. This is why I look so closely at collaterals and I can usually tell from a glance at the surnames involved, from which DANIEL line they probably descended. I may have 5,000 different DANIELS in my records but I have 40,000 of their collaterals, or more, in my records and notes. It is real easy to take down what someone has sent you on their family but when you start comparing that information against the known information of other families, you often run into real difficulties because it does not match up. I spend a good portion of my time correcting errors in this information, as new information becomes available. The one DANIEL family I do not carry a lot on is the Essex bunch, which seems to be one of your families of interest. All of the rest of them I have a pretty good understanding of. I also see a lot of posts on McDANIELS, McDONALDS and others that I know later became DANIEL and this is especially true of a lot of families from PA. VA and TN, especially those that migrated to the Midwest in a later time frame. There are four big "cotton mill" families in GA -- the CASONS, CANNONS, JONES and CALLOWAYS. I have two in my bunch and I think the other two. I also know that a cotton mill boy of Athens, Robert DANIEL, is reported to have been in the same type of business and family sources say his family in Athens was related to my bunch but guess who claims this boy -- the DANIELL family of Bogart but they have also claimed about every DANIEL in east Georgia and western SC that has two cents in their pockets, at one time or another so I do not believe everything I hear from that bunch. This is one of the primary reasons I look at this SC bunch, not to mention all of my other connections to Charleston nor the fact that one of the RIVERS family of James Island owned Gov. Robert DANIELL's home in Charleston up to the turn of the 20th Century. Like you, I see all type of compiled genealogical information submitted by subscribers to this list, as well as to other lists. Usually, if the name, DANIEL, is involved, I can look over the surnames and locations involved and have a pretty good guess as to whether it is accurate or not. I also see a lot of this information that does not pass the smell test. I am not interested in who someone's Granny SMITH married or even who her parents were because that only puts us back to 1850 and 1850 information is useless to me. I want early information (before 1800) because that is where the errors usually come into a lot of this compiled information. I know it becomes boring to you and others concerning the relationship(s) I try to explain in some of these families and for this, I am sorry. However, if you do not understand these inter-relationships, you do not understand your DANIEL family, which opens the door for incorrect assignments. As I have stated many times, just because your great aunt, Sally, told your mother when she was a young girl that your ancestors were a John DANIEL and Mary SMITH, does not mean the first John DANIEL and Mary SMITH you happen to find living in your neck of the woods in the right time frame were your ancestors. However, they could be, but only after you verify this information through bible records, civil records, court records and tombstones, to an acceptable degree of certainty. As for me, the only records I trust to a 100% certainty are tombstones because if they list the name of the parent, they are irrefutable. Civil records, court records and bible records often leave much to be desired because parents sometimes leave the names of some of their children off these records for one reason or another or they were not written, contemporaneously. Court records and civil records are left to the discretion or others and there are many errors in some of these records, often because someone has taken part of them out of context. As genealogical researchers, we also have to use a lot of transcribed records and the accuracy of these records is left to the abilities of the transcriber and a lot of these folks, though well meaning, still have to count to 10 with their fingers. This is why I always go back to the original document if I have any question about a specific family or transcribed entry. It is surprising how some of this information may change when you do this, too.......... John R.

What is the significance of this Hillary CASON connection to Daniel research? At least we did change the "subject line" as Gerald suggested. Curious in Tampa.

For one, Hillary CASON, Sr. married Sarah Barrow ORMANS in 1763, according to my information, but some list their kids born as late as 1792, which is unreasonable because he wife would have been age 53 in 1792, since she was born in 1739. My guess is you can add about 20 years to the date they were married and about 1783 would have been it, for most females, or age 45 for the wife, whichever comes first. So, if that is Hillary CASON, Jr. in Sampson County, NC in 1790, with a young wife, then he was probably about age 21, giving him a DOB of 1765-1769, which makes since to me. My information on Hillary, Jr.'s wife is that she was a Mary SMITH whom he married in 1803 in Screven County, GA, but I have no other information on her. I also have information that he died in Arkansas and Hillary, Sr. in 1814 in Screven County, GA and his wife, Sarah Ormand CASON a few years later, 1823, in Bryan County, Georgia. Sampson County, NC also rings a bell with these early eastern GA folks because a lot of them came from Sampson County, NC, including my maternal REGISTER bunch who migrated into Bulloch County, GA where they tie in with the TOMLINSONS, MIZELLS and others. The MIZELLS were from Martin County, NC and a lot of these other folks, including the HARDEMANS, MOORES and SIRMANS were from Pitt County, NC. A good portion of this whole bunch ended up, later, in Clinch County, GA although some of the MIZELLS moved to the Wayne County, GA area and then over into Hamilton County, FL when it opened up. The TOMLINSONS were from Bristol Parish, Prince George County, VA, according to my information, but I think they migrated over into the Chowan Area of NC because I pick up FORT connections to this TOMLINSON family, later, and these FORTS were, originally, from Surry County, VA, later Johnston County, NC. The History of Baldwin County, GA say that Arthur FORT, Jr. (1750-1833) of Milledgeville,Baldwin County, GA married a MS Susannah TOMLINSON, a daughter of a Quaker Family from PA but I kind of doubt that assignment because I think she was a sister of my 5th GGF, Capt. John TOMLINSON RS-SC (1750-1801) of Bulloch County, GA who married Rebecca Lucretia HARDEMAN, d/o Thomas HARDEMAN of Pitt County, NC.. I cannot disprove an earlier Quaker connection to this TOMLINSON family because they do have a few "Quaker" type female names in their family but both John and his father, William TOMLINSON (1730-1789) RS-SC, are DAR recognized "Patriots," as is Arthur FORT, Jr (RS-SC). We also know the STAFFORDS, MAYS, JOHNSTONS and some of the DANIELS migrated from Johnston and Pitt County, NC to Beaufort County, SC in the 1770 time frame and this appears to be about the same time my TOMLINSON bunch migrated from NC to the same area Beaufort District, SC. They would later move to Effingham and Bulloch County, GA where they renewed their family collateral relationships with those families with which they have been close back in NC, including the MOORES, HARDEMANS and SIRMANS. BTW, my maternal grandmother was a TOMLINSON from the Magnolia District of Clinch County, GA and this whole bunch from NC were all RS, so you can just about say any family around them were RS, too. I have often wondered about my father's DANIEL bunch but everything around them appears to be RS, too, even the LANES. So, there may have been a few Tories floating around this bunch, there always seems to be, at least, one black sheep in every family, but I have not seen them, as yet, in any of my proven lines.

Diane, I do not trust some of these dates you generally see for Hillary CASON's chillen or for many of these other families, for that matter. For one, Hillary CASON, Sr. married Sarah Barrow ORMANS in 1763, according to my information, but some list their kids born as late as 1792, which is unreasonable because he wife would have been age 53 in 1792, since she was born in 1739. My guess is you can add about 20 years to the date they were married and about 1783 would have been it, for most females, or age 45 for the wife, whichever comes first. So, if that is Hillary CASON, Jr. in Sampson County, NC in 1790, with a young wife, then he was probably about age 21, giving him a DOB of 1765-1769, which makes since to me. My information on Hillary, Jr.'s wife is that she was a Mary SMITH whom he married in 1803 in Screven County, GA, but I have no other information on her. I also have information that he died in Arkansas and Hillary, Sr. in 1814 in Screven County, GA and his wife, Sarah Ormand CASON a few years later, 1823, in Bryan County, Georgia.

Paul, RE: According to a descendant of Hillary CASON that I have been in contact with, John CASON was a grandson of James and Ann CASON and of Edward and Sarah (Dawley) CANNON. That is what I have. Hillary, John, Henry, William, Cannon CASON and the rest of these children of William CASON and Jane Anne CANNON were the g/c of Edward CANNON and Sarah DAULEY and James CANNON, Jr. and Judith Ann FLEMING. What did I say? That FLEMING interests me too, because I have a FLEMING tied to my RAMSEY bunch over in the Augusta County, VA area. These FLEMINGS were from Scotland - Dr. William FLEMING (1727-1795) married Nancy Ann CHRISTIAN and he was the son of LORD FLEMING OF HUGIL b: 1700 in England and DORTHEA SATTERWAITE b: 1702. BTW, my uncle, Russell Daniel RICHTER, Sr. (1882-1944) married Burma ADAMS in 1909 in Morgan County, GA. She was the d/o a George W.ADAMS (1850-1912) and his wife, Elizabeth, of Harwell's District, Morgan County, GA and I cannot find anything on them but they had a son named, Paul ADAMS born ABT 1900 and who died in 1925 in Morgan County, GA. Burma and Russ, Sr. had one son, Russ, Jr. (1912-1980), who moved to Dallas, TX and died out there in 1980. Russ Jr. married a Thelma M. (1905-1982) who died in Meriwether County, GA. I think this was George's parents and his wife may have been a PRYOR because the name, Florida, was a PRYOR name. . <<< Adams, William E. married Russell, Mrs. Martha on August 14 1836 <<< 1900 Census, Morgan County, GA Harwells District, MD 1463, Household 103 ADAMS, George W., head, white, male, May 1850, age 50,M, 15, born GA, father born GA, mother born GA, farmer ADAMS, Lizzie, wife, white, female, Apr 1859, age 41, M, 15, born GA, father born GA, mother born GA ADAMS, Burma, daughter, white, female, Jan 1886, age 14, single, born GA, father born GA, mother born GA ADAMS, Grannie (?), daughter, female, May 1887, age 13, single, born GA, father born GA, mother born GA 1920 Morgan County GA Census, Harwells District, household #162 ADAMS, Elizabeth, head, female, white, age 60, widow, born GA, father born GA, mother born GA ADAMS, Lillian, daughter, white, female, age 30, single, born GA, father born GA, mother born GA ADAMS, Florida E., daughter, white, female, age 22, single, born GA, father born GA, mother born GA ADAMS, Percy, son, white, male, age 19, single, born GA, father born GA, mother born GA ADAMS, Paul, son, white, male, age 19, single, born GA, father born GA, mother born GA ADAMS, Ben, son, white, male, age 17, single, born GA, father born GA, mother born GA John R.

However, given that my ADAMS and WATKINS lines are found in Pitt, and given my ADAMS and WATKINS relationship to the CASONs, and given that the CASONs comingle with at least one line of the DANIELs of Pitt, the circumstantial evidence looks very interesting to me. To add fuel to the fire, prior to my G-Grandfather (Francis Marion DANIEL) marrying Rachel ADAMS, he was married to Sally DIXON. This DIXON line also traces back to Pitt.

Mike, Yes, he is there. I have George WYATT's 1998 transcription and he was spelled CASOM on it and I did not catch it when I searched for CASON. You are referencing, Alice TATUM's transcription which must be a better one than WYATT's. I assume you saw the John HATTON (1,4,2,0,2) near Robert, Lanier and Thomas DANIEL. He married Frances CASON, d/o John CASON and John CASON (1,4,4,0,12) is also right there by the DANIELS. I notice that she has some transcription errors, too -- Gardner MOSS and not Gardner MOYE. He has MOZE but that is closer than MOSS. She also misspelled LITTLE in a later record. I also want you to look at the record for James ALBRITTON (1,1,4,0,4) a little ways on down the page and look who is sitting right next to him - Mathias MOORE. (3,2,3,0,10). Mathias was the son of Samuel MOORE and Sarah MOYE, and Mathias had a sister named, Jemima MOORE, born ABT 1730. Obadiah MOORE is their brother and he is right there with this whole bunch and there is not a WILLIS in sight but there are a few Willis given names but the only one that looks interesting is Willis WILSON. I know the MOORES and MOYES are all over some of the Pitt County, NC area deeds with a Robert DANIEL but I do not know whether this is the Robert DANIEL ( 2,1,1,0,15), located next to Thomas and Lanier DANIEL, or Robert DANNALS (2,1,1,0,15), located next to David PERKINS and Lemuel JAMES. I think the former but he could be the latter. Notice on down the page, Hugh PUGH, Sr. and Simon BURNEY and we know who Simon married Louisa PUGH, d/o Hugh PUGH, Sr. Hugh PUGH was married to a Penelope CANNON and look who is sitting right next to Hugh PUGH, Sr. -- the JARRELLS and the JARRELLS are tied to the LANES. Look who is sitting right amongst this whole PUGH_BIRNEY bunch, my Isaac PARKER (1,4,2,0,3) who married Bethany LANE, sister of my 2nd GGM, Penelope L:ANE (1773-1846). Col. James ARMSTRONG, who filed the complaint against Robert DANIEL, Jr. in 1779 is located just a few houses back up the list, too. What do you have on the CANNONS. I have bits and pieces but I know that Henry CASON, Sr. (1732-1823) married a CANNON and a Henry CANNON was a brother of Jane Ann CANNON (1700-BEF 1758) who married William CASON (1691-1764) and they were the parents of these CASONS, so I assume the Henry name came from the CANNONS. Henry CANNON (ABT 1698, Bath County, NC-BEF OCT 1757, Craven County, NC) married an Elizabeth and it was their daughter, Penelope CANNON, who married Hugh PUGH, Sr. and their daughter, Louisa PUGH, married Simon BURNEY, Sr.. I am going to have to take a closer look at these BURNEYS because they tie into that Thomas DANIEL down in Greene County, GA. John R.

Oops! Should read page 145a. Mike
