John, There is a Lamar High School in Houston. I guess it was named for this family. Lucy ----- Original Message ----- From: John R. Clarke To: DANIEL-L@rootsweb.com Sent: Friday, December 05, 2003 7:13 AM Subject: Re: [DANIEL-L] Judge Lucius Quintus Cinncinatus LAMAR and Sarah Williamson BIRD Regardless, Jack, there has to be a reason that Professor RIVERS (1824-1905) was living with Sarah Bird LAMAR in 1850 in Newton County, GA. I know he had a school there, because the name of some of his students are listed on the census with them, but my bet is he was family of sorts. I could be wrong on this but the LAMARS are close to many of my RICHTER bunch in Madison, GA, later...... Also, Newton County, GA is where his brother, William Bainbridge RIVERS lived - Rivers Hill Plantation. He was married to Sophia R. THOMAS, d/o Rev. Edward Lloyd THOMAS and Mary Steward L. HOGUE of Oxford, Newton County, GA. Sophia's brother was Gen. Edward Lloyd THOMAS, Jr, CSA. Also in 1850, my 2nd GGF, Rev. Russell RENEAU (1807-1865) was living in Oxford, Newton County, GA. This put RIVERS, my GGM, Mary Jane RENEAU (1840-1912), who married Robert W. DANIEL (1809-1865) of Bethany, Jefferson County, GA in 1852, the LAMARS and the RICHTERS of Madison, GA all within just a few miles of one another in this 1850 time frame. Remember, also, that Professor RIVERS married Mrs. Mary Jane Reneau DANIEL after RWD's death in 1867, so this early common early location in Newton County, GA probably set the stage for what happened later. Judge LAMAR's brother was General Mirabeau Bonaparte LAMAR (1798-1859) who was born in Louisville, Jefferson County, Georgia but died in Richmond, Fort Bend County, Texas. He married Tabitha Burnwell JORDAN, daughter of a Burnwell JORDAN, according to my notes. My notes also say that he was the 2nd President of TX. His widow later died in Columbus, GA and they had two children, both born in Perry County, AL. Judge LAMAR, the oldest, was born in Warren County, GA but the other children of John LAMAR III were born in Louisville, Jefferson County, Georgia. Judge LAMAR's children married into the LONGSTREET (two of them), BAILEY, WIGGINS and LAMAR families. I think this whole bunch connects but whether my bunch are a part of them, I do not know..... My notes on General L. B. LAMAR: <<< President Lamar's widowed mother and his daughter came to Texas from Stewart County, Georgia, in 1839. Mrs. Lamar had her will prepared on July 24, 1839, but was too ill to sign it. She died on the 26th and was buried in the City Cemetery, now on West Dallas Avenue in Houston. In her will, Mrs. Lamar left all of her property to the lawful issue of her daughter Mary Ann by her husband Joseph Moreland. It was specified, however, that the property was not to be distributed until after Mrs. Moreland's death. At the time of her demise, Mrs. Lamar possessed three slaves -- John, aged about 27, Amanda, aged about 18, and Alice, aged about 10 years. Her sons, Mirabeau B. Lamar and Jefferson J. Lamar of Stewart County Georgia, were named as executors of her estate. SOURCE: Newspaper Clippings from the Macon Messenger, Vol. III (1838-1842), Tad Evans, page 129 >>> John R.

I wanted to clarify some information. Having been born in Conroe, which is the county seat of Montgomery County, I can say that Trinity is not in that county, nor is the Daniel Plantain.

Good Morning, There has been more than a little discussion about the COFFEE-CUNNINGHAM-DANIEL connections in Greene County, GA of recent. I found this link which seems to tie the T&E bunch back to the COFFEES. John WILLCOX, Sr. (1728-1793) of Concord, Chester Co, PA, later Gulf, Chatham County, NC married a Rebecca BUTLER (1733-1808). They had a son, John WILLCOX, Jr. (1777-1852) who married a Mary LEA and they lived in Telfair County, GA. Their son, John WILLCOX, III married Mary Jane DANIEL, d/o John DANIEL RS-SC and Rebecca STEVENS of "Inglewood", Dodge County, GA. John was a son of Aaron DANIEL and Betsy WHITFIELD, they say.... Anyway, after Mary Jane's death, John WILLCOX, III married Louisa Ann CONNER, d/o Wilson CONNER and Mary Ann COOK of Montgomery County, GA. Wilson CONNER's parents were Thomas CONNER (1726-1802) and Anne BEVERLY (1731-1791). Anyway, the brother of John WILLCOX, III, Mark Lea WILLCOX (1799-1852), a general in the GA Militia, married (1st) a Jane Elizabeth PARRAMORE in 1825 and then, (2nd) in 1828, Sarah Ann Elizabeth COFFEE, d/o Gen. John E. COFFEE (1782-1836) who was the brother of Elizabeth who married Charles DANIEL, Susannah who married John RANDLE, Sr. and all the others we have mentioned as relates to the family of Peter Coffee, Jr. and Sarah SMITH. Coffee County, GA is named for this John COFFEE. Not to mention the fact that my grand aunt, Mary Green DANIEL (b. 1848), half sister of my grandmother, Alice E. DANIEL (1854-1924), married a Lewis WILCOX by 1867. I have a feeling that Lewis was out of this WILLCOX/WILCOX family, for whom Wilcox County, GA was probably named. This is starting to get really interesting. I also hoped that Jack also noticed that Rebecca BUTLER listed in this family. I do not have anything on her except she was born in Philadelphia, PA - Father: ? BUTLER b: ABT 1711 and Mother: Jane BARRY b: ABT 1711. John R. Clarke Thomasville, GA

Jack, I found this and it may interest you. Amelia LAMAR, sister of Judge L.Q. C. LAMAR married John S. RANDLE (1804-1850) of Hancock County, GA in 1827 in Putnam County, GA. John was the son of John RANDLE and Susannah COFFEE of Hancock County, GA. Susannah was the sister of Elizabeth COFFEE who married Charles DANIEL...... Now, do you not believe they were not connected? Just so you will know, I am still digging like a dog after a bone, because I smell paydirt, here....... John R.

Regardless, Jack, there has to be a reason that Professor RIVERS (1824-1905) was living with Sarah Bird LAMAR in 1850 in Newton County, GA. I know he had a school there, because the name of some of his students are listed on the census with them, but my bet is he was family of sorts. I could be wrong on this but the LAMARS are close to many of my RICHTER bunch in Madison, GA, later...... Also, Newton County, GA is where his brother, William Bainbridge RIVERS lived - Rivers Hill Plantation. He was married to Sophia R. THOMAS, d/o Rev. Edward Lloyd THOMAS and Mary Steward L. HOGUE of Oxford, Newton County, GA. Sophia's brother was Gen. Edward Lloyd THOMAS, Jr, CSA. Also in 1850, my 2nd GGF, Rev. Russell RENEAU (1807-1865) was living in Oxford, Newton County, GA. This put RIVERS, my GGM, Mary Jane RENEAU (1840-1912), who married Robert W. DANIEL (1809-1865) of Bethany, Jefferson County, GA in 1852, the LAMARS and the RICHTERS of Madison, GA all within just a few miles of one another in this 1850 time frame. Remember, also, that Professor RIVERS married Mrs. Mary Jane Reneau DANIEL after RWD's death in 1867, so this early common early location in Newton County, GA probably set the stage for what happened later. Judge LAMAR's brother was General Mirabeau Bonaparte LAMAR (1798-1859) who was born in Louisville, Jefferson County, Georgia but died in Richmond, Fort Bend County, Texas. He married Tabitha Burnwell JORDAN, daughter of a Burnwell JORDAN, according to my notes. My notes also say that he was the 2nd President of TX. His widow later died in Columbus, GA and they had two children, both born in Perry County, AL. Judge LAMAR, the oldest, was born in Warren County, GA but the other children of John LAMAR III were born in Louisville, Jefferson County, Georgia. Judge LAMAR's children married into the LONGSTREET (two of them), BAILEY, WIGGINS and LAMAR families. I think this whole bunch connects but whether my bunch are a part of them, I do not know..... My notes on General L. B. LAMAR: <<< President Lamar's widowed mother and his daughter came to Texas from Stewart County, Georgia, in 1839. Mrs. Lamar had her will prepared on July 24, 1839, but was too ill to sign it. She died on the 26th and was buried in the City Cemetery, now on West Dallas Avenue in Houston. In her will, Mrs. Lamar left all of her property to the lawful issue of her daughter Mary Ann by her husband Joseph Moreland. It was specified, however, that the property was not to be distributed until after Mrs. Moreland's death. At the time of her demise, Mrs. Lamar possessed three slaves -- John, aged about 27, Amanda, aged about 18, and Alice, aged about 10 years. Her sons, Mirabeau B. Lamar and Jefferson J. Lamar of Stewart County Georgia, were named as executors of her estate. SOURCE: Newspaper Clippings from the Macon Messenger, Vol. III (1838-1842), Tad Evans, page 129 >>> John R.

Jack, My bet is the William DANIEL of Savannah was Dr. William Coffee DANIEL (1793-1868), husband of Martha SCREVEN (1801-1834), d/o Thomas Smith SCREVEN, Jr. (1774-1833) and Martha Ann Susannah SMITH of Charleston, later Savannah. William Coffee DANIEL was the son of Charles DANIEL and Elizabeth COFFEE of Greene County, GA. WCD and Martha had one child that I know of, a Benjamin Richard DANIEL who married a Julia Ella JONES of Sabine Parish, LA and they lived in Shreveport, LA. I find it awful interesting that WCD's wife, Martha, died on 4 Feb 1834 and LAMAR on 4 Jun 1834. Also, Martha's father died on 12 Jun 1833. I wonder if her father was the minister and his death was followed by the death of his daughter (Martha Screven DANIEL) in February 1834 and then by LAMAR in June. What was the name of the person this William DANIEL interceded with in Senate on his behalf? That, will tell us who this William DANIEL was...... John R.

I am trying to find information on Earl Daniel, or his family. He lived in Cleveland, Ohio in the mid-forties and worked as a typewriter repair salesman. I believe he was born about 1920.

Hi John: This is an interesting e-mail here. It's part of the same families that are connected with those in "Early Alabama Settlers". The name Cinncinatus - many of the men in these families belonged to the "Society Cinncinatus" - a Rev War Soldier's society, that I'd like to find out more about. I've looked to see if I couldn't find a roster to this Society - but, haven't found one yet. The Judge is too young to be a member of this society - but, his father might have been. - Ruth in Portland, OR ----- Original Message ----- From: "John R.

John, Judge Lucius Quintus Cinncinatus Lamar committed suicide in 1834. A minister had been tried and convicted for the murder of his step-daughter, and Lamar sentenced him to death. Somehow, his case was brought before the Georgia Senate where a William Daniel of Savannah was one of the strongest proponents for the minister's innocence. (A note that was with the history that I read on this incident said that William Daniel had missed being President of the Senate by 2 votes). Anyway, William Daniel lost his argument for mercy, and the minister was hanged. In 1834, a man was on the gallows for another murder when he confessed to the murder for which the minister had been hanged. He gave sufficient detail to totally exonerate the pastor - too late to help. A couple of days later, Judge Lamar came home, kissed his wife and children, walked out into his garden and shot himself to death. I saw no genealogical connection between William Daniel and Judge Lamar, but it was an interesting coincidental connection. Jack ----- Original Message ----- From: "John R.

Good Evening, I do not think to ask if anyone had a DANIEL related to this LAMAR or BIRD families? Judge Lucius Quintus Cinncinatus LAMAR (1797-1834) died in Milledgeville, Baldwin County, GA and his wife, Sarah Bird LAMAR, moved to Newton County, GA where I find Professor Winfield Montgomery RIVERS living with her in 1850. Sarah was the d/o Thompson BIRD and Susannah WILLIAMSON of Powalter, Hancock County, GA. The BIRDS were formerly of Cecil County, MD and the WILLIAMSONS of Wilkes County, GA, formerly Buckingham County, VA. Susannah was the d/o Col. Micajah WILLIAMSON RS-SC (1744-1796) and Sarah GILLIAM. Sarah's sister, Nancy WILLIAMSON married Gov. John CLARKE, Esq. and her brother, Charles WILLIAMSON. married Mary CLARKE, John's sister. John and Mary were the children of Gen. Eligah CLARKE and Hannah ARRINGTON of Wilkes County, GA. Judge LAMAR was the son of John LAMAR III and Rebecca LAMAR of "Fairfield", Putnam County, Georgia and grandson of John LAMAR, II and Mary Elizabeth BUGG of Columbia County, GA. The LAMARS were originally from Queen Anne's Parish, Prince George's County, Maryland. The reason I ask is because Professor RIVERS married my GGM, Mary Jane RENEAU in 1867 after the death of my GGF, Robert W. DANIEL,, Esq. of Jefferson County, GA and I feel there is a good chance that RIVERS was in some what related to these LAMARS - in some way or another. Judge LAMAR was originally buried in Riverside Cemetery, Macon, Ga but his body was moved in 1894 to St. Peter's Cemetery, Oxford, Lafayette Co, MS, home of the University of MS. If you have a DANIEL family with links to this bunch, I would like to hear about it. Short biography on Judge Lucius Quintus Cinncinatus LAMAR: <<< He was a student at Franklin College, University of Georgia. L.Q.C. studied law in the office of Joel Crawford at Milledgeville in 1816 and at the law school, Litchfield, Conn, 1817-1818; and was admitted to the Georgia bar in 1819 and settled in practice at Milledgeville.. He soon became recognized as an able and outstanding attorney. In 1821, he became a law partner with Joel Crawford, his former instructor. In 1830, he was elevated to the bench as the youngest judge in the State of Georgia, and was soon recognized as one of the ablest judges of that early period. He also possessed unusual literary culture. He revised Augustine S. Clayton's "Georgia Justice," published in 1819 and was chosen by the legislature of Georgia to compile the laws of Georgia from 1810 to 1820, published in 1821. His tombstone says: "Sacred to the memory of Lucius Q. C. LAMAR, late Judge of the Superior Court of the Okmulgee circuit, who during a brief service of five years discharged the duties of that high office with probity, firmness, assiduity, and unquestionable reputation. The devoted love of his family, the ardent attachment of personal friends, the admiration of the Bar, and the universal approbation of his enlightened administration of justice, attest the goodness and eminence of one arrested by death too early in the bright and useful career in which he had been place by his native State. Born July 15, 1797. Died July 4, 1834." >>> John R. Clarke Thomasville, GA

Mike, There is something amiss, here. I know what that 1794 will says but it does not make sense when you mesh it with the Cunningham information. The CUNNINGHAM information says this whole bunch were VA folks and VA folks usually marry into VA folks and this CUNNINGHAM family seems to have taken that tendency to the extremes - they also married each other's widows. One, we know where old Simon BURNEY was from (Beaufort County, NC) and what the deeds back in Pitt County, NC say, don't we? We also know that Simon is generally an IOW area given name and it is found all through these IOW families which seems to confirm most of this. We also know into which families his other children married, don't we. However, we do have that nebulous RANDLE connection that seems to hang like a pall all over this family, unattached and RANDLE is a VA name and it is tied to many of the same families as are the CUNNINGHAMS. Also, if you look at the COFFEES and their known descendants they match profile wise with all of the CUNNINHAM information. William Coffee DANIEL married a SCREVEN out of Savannah and Smith Coffee DANIEL moved to MS and married well out there -- both were what one would call, landed gentry, then and later. One of the COFFEE boys was a general and Coffee County, GA was named for him. All you have to do is go back to VA and see the CUNNINHAMS were buying thousands of acres of land, all over the place. These were not "po" folks and what they did in Greene County, GA, later, was just an extension of what they did in VA, previously. Do you think they would let one of their daughters marry the son of an itinerate Baptist preacher from NC, even if he was a Lanier-Daniel? Not on your best day. Any opposition to such a marriage may have been the other way around, too, look what Rev. Jesse MERCER did to Gov. CLARKE when he married Jesse's daughter without his permission. This just does not measure up because their is one thing we know in genealogy -- "likes marry likes"... ..... I do not know what the answer is but something smells here and whether that smell is from the CUNNINHAM or DANIEL information, I do not know. Not to mention the fact that Charles is not a given name anywhere that I can find in the LANIER-DANIEL or BURNEY families. My guess is -- Thomas DANIEL of Greene County, GA was either a descendant of James DANIEL and Jean KELSO, which does not explain the BURNEY connection, or there is something connecting these two DANIEL families that we do not know about. I also think there may be some credence to the Sarah (I think) RANDLE connection listed by many for this Thomas DANIEL. Putting Thomas DANIEL with the BURNEYS together and then throwing them into the CUNNINGHAM-COFFEE milieu is like putting apples and oranges in the same basket and calling them, pears. It does not fly, either...... We have three possibilities, as I see it -- the CUNNINGHAM information is wrong, the BURNEY-DANIEL information is wrong or they are both wrong to some degree, so take your pick...... John R.

Ruth, Robert DANIELL, an O'DANIEL descendant, and I uncovered some interesting connections the other day, involving the FITZPATRICKS. Someone mentioned a MAYFIELD link and I looked at my data and found where a Sudie MAYFIELD married a BYROM but that is where it gets interesting. Sudie MAYFIELD married an Henry Crawford BYROM. Henry was the son of William Hardwick C. BYROM and Juliana Harvey FITE of Gordon County, GA. William was the son of John Smith Davenport BYRON and Nancy FITZPATRICK of West Columbia, Brazoria County, Texas. Nancy was the daughter of Rene FITZPATRICK RS-VA (ABT 1739-1839) and Mary "Mollie: HARDWICK of Greensboro, Greene County, GA. Rene was the younger brother of my Capt. Benjamin FITZPATRICK RS-VA (1745-1821) who married a PERKINS and a JONES and settled also in Greene and later Morgan County, GA. Notice, also, the PERKINS connection and the link to the CRAWFORD family - a Tabitha PERKINS is sitting right next to my Robert C. DANIEL in Burke in 1820 and William Bibb CRAWFORD performed the marriage ceremony for my grand uncle, William Russell DANIEL in 1879 in Madison, GA. I do feel the CRAWFORD family of Morgan County, GA is at least, close to my bunch, maybe even collateral in some way. We also know that Capt. Allen DANIEL of Elbert County, GA also married a PERKINS. You mention the MAXWELLS and I am sure old Audley MAXWELL (1766-1840) of Liberty County, GA is probably a part of this family. He married a STEVENS and remember who they say that John DANIEL, son of Capt. Aaron and Betsy, married -- a Rebecca STEVENS. Audley MAXWELL matches the profile of John DANIEL and since one of his daughters married Roswell KING whose family was the family of Roswell, GA (named for him) then you got to say this bunch was rather affluent. Remember, the mother of Theodore ROOSEVELT, Martha BULLOCH, was born and raised in Roswell and the KINGS and the BULLOCHS were close, real close. So, this bunch, was not what they call, 'po." Just up the road from Roswell, where all the rich Yankees and sports figures in Atlanta now live, is Canton, Cherokee County, GA the home of the JONES -- the Bobby JONES family who were in the cotton mill business, as were the KINGS and BULLOCHS in Roswell. In fact, one of the widows of one of my RICHTER cousins, Richter SMITH of Griffin, GA, was the niece of Bobby. Don't forget the CALLOWAYS in all of this and their links to both the CASONS and CANNONS and a CALLOWAY married into the FITZPATRICK family and their son, Henry Harris FITZPATRICK (1863-1934) married my aunt, Ida Reneau RICHTER (1879-1968). And my grandmother married a Dr. Robert JONES from Monroe, GA in 1914 in Atlanta, after the death of my grandfather. I cannot find out much about this Dr. JONES and what I have found out is not worth listing here but, needless to say, the family was most upset about this marriage but I will bet he is out of this same JONES family. As for the THOMPSONS you list, I would take a close look at Capt. Reuben THOMPSON RS-GA (1765-1855) and his wife, Rachel CHAMBERS, both of Emanuel County, GA. Reuben, Jr. married a Martha DANIEL. Rev. Robert T. THOMPSON married a BEASLEY, d/o a ROBINETTE, and another married a GRIMES, s/o a Francis GRIMES. The key link in this THOMPSON family was their oldest daughter, Sarah, who married Rev. Jordan FLANDERS (1793-1878) as his first wife. His second wife was a DANIEL. Several of the things I know about Capt. Reuben THOMPSON is that he was born in Bertie County, NC and his wife, Rachel CHAMBERS, in MD. Capt. THOMPSON also served as Clerk of the Inferior Court of Emanuel County, GA from 1821-1833 and we know that Lucy GRAY's ancestor, Eligah H. CALLOWAY, also of Emanuel, was in this position at an earlier time and Rev. Jordan FLANDERS, at a later time. I have always wondered if this Reuben THOMPSON was related to William Tappen THOMPSON, the first editor of what became the "Madisonian" newspaper in Madison, GA. I know he left Madison about 1850 and moved to Savannah were he ran a newspaper down there. They have a statue of him in Savannah in one of their squares but I cannot find any listed genealogy for him, anywhere. I also have a good database on the family of Christopher CLARK, Sr. and Millicent TERRELL if you want it. I know the TERRELLS were Quakers but did you know his grandmother was a BOLLING? Now, get this, after you read the following DAR application, which appears to be accurate. Nancy HARDWICK, sister of Mollie HARDWICK who married Rene FITZPATRICK, married a TAYLOR, a DANIEL and a BARROW. The DANIEL marriage in 1777 is the one of importance since he was James DANIELL (O'DANIEL) of Fairfield County, SC, later Hancock County, GA. See a copy of Robert's private message to me of the other day (below). I also wonder if this James BARROW who married Nancy HARDWICK in 1802, then the widow of James DANIELL, was related to the James BARROW who married Nancy ANDREWS (b. ABT 1735). This Nancy was the d/o Warren ANDREWS and Sarah of Pitt County, NC and she was a sister of Lt. Edmund ANDREWS (1725-1796), whose daughter, Prisa ANDREWS, married William DANIEL, Sr. son of Capt Robert Lanier DANIEL of Pitt. Edmund married Agnes WALLACE, d/o William WALLACE and Martha ANDREWS, who was probably a sister of Warren ANDREWS. Georgia Methodist Bishops Lovick, Reddick and George Foster PIERCE come right out of this ANDREWS line. I am sure there more than a few "heathen" Baptists in the bunch <grin> but what does it really show us? It shows us they were all of equal station, as the say. Take for an example the MELLS we have floating around some of this bunch. My 2nd GGF, Rev. Russell RENEAU was taken to task by a MELL in 1850 because of Russell's views on predestination. MELL was then head of the Georgia Baptist Convention. I have cousins that graduated from Mercer and others that graduated from Penfield, the predecessor of Mercer, and old Jesse's daughter married a CLARKE. She died and Rev. Jesse being the Christian man he was never forgave her husband for eloping with her against his wishes. In fact, Jesse led a campaign to run this former Georgia Governor right out of GA, which he did. John CLARKE, Esq. later married a WILLIAMSON. d/o Col. Micajah WILLIAMSON of Wilkes County, GA and he is now buried in Marietta, GA with his father, Gen. Elijah CLARKE. <<< The National Society of the Daughters of the American Revolution Volume 103 page 263 Mrs. Birdie Varner Sanders. DAR ID Number: 102853 Born in Butts County, Ga. Wife of Bennett C.

James DANIELL(O'DANIEL) of Fairfield, SC, abt 1777, moving with him to Hancock County, GA circa 1790. No children are confirmed from the union of Nancy and James, but there are suspicions of two possible children, a John DANIELL to whom she gives a slave girl in 1799 (after James' death) "for the love and good will and affection which I have for my son", and a Betty AUSTON, mother of James' grandson Jesse Daniell AUSTON, both named in James' will of 1797. As yet this "Betty" is unidentified. James' Bible does not show either John or Betty, and John is not mentioned in James' Will. William HARDWICK was the Executor of James DANIELL's estate. James' son Levi DANIELL in his Will refers to "my step-mother Nancy DANIELL." After James' death in 1798, Nancy HARDWICK DANIELL m2 James BARROW in 1802. She moved with him to Baldwin County, dying there in 1814. According to the Will abstract, William left "To daughter Nancy DANIELL, 25 cents". Really, huh.

John, Thomas and Sarah BURNEY (not RANDLE) were the parents of Charles DANIEL that married Elizabeth Coffee. Simon BURNEY'S Greene Cty., GA will of 24 Jan 1792 refers to daughter Sarah DANIEL and appoints as executors "Thomas DANIEL & Charles DANIEL, my son-in-law and grandson". Mike Daniel

Any idea where that was & have you ever heard of Yerby Daniel b1784 in > Davie Co. Evelyn > Evelyn, like you, I don't connect to the tidewater Daniel lines either. First records found for my Robert C. Daniel (1791 NC-1870 TN) and his proven DNA relative Plummer Daniel are out in the Blue Ridge Mountains of western North Carolina in the 1810 Buncombe County census. Not all that far from your relatives in the Yadkin Valley. In the 1810 Buncombe County North Carolina census, we apparently see my young as yet childless gg-grandparents Robert C. Daniel and Nancy Kimsey living next to an older Hiram Daniel. Hiram is believed to be the father of Plummer Daniel. There is a William Daniel living nearby, apparently a little younger than Hiram, with young children. Hiram Daniel had a land grant in Rutherford County in 1799, in this same area of the Blue Ridge Mountains. The interesting thing is that Nancy Kimsey's widowed mother and family are also living there in Buncombe county. The Kimsey's and Robert C. Daniel moved to Duck River Tennessee sometime between 1810 and 1813, settling in Bedford County Tennessee, where some still remain, although my great grandfather Humphrey Posey Kimsey Daniel moved to Mississippi in 1851. There are still Kimsey relatives living in western North Carolina. We have a lot more information on the Kimsey family origins than our Daniel line. My gg-grandmother Nancy Kimsey's father Benjamin Kimsey II first married to Margaret Gregg in Augusta County Virginia. Margaret Gregg was born in Cumberland County Pennsylvania. Benjamin Kimsey migrated to Henry County Virginia, and on the death of his first wife, married Agness Lane. Benjamin is buried in Henderson County North Carolina. Benjamin Kimsey was a farmer and a Baptist minister. We cannot conclude that my Daniel ancestors followed the same migration path as the Kimsey's, but it does give some clues. These folks don't seem to have been flatlanders, even if some later moved to the swamps of Mississippi and Texas. My wife jokes about how my ancestors lived just across the log from Snuffy Smith, but I remind her that my gg-grandfather Robert C. Daniel was literate enough to write his own will in 1867, and had sons who were school teachers and doctors. None the less, she finds it amusing we are planning to visit my cousin on Daniel Hollow, a few miles from Lynchburg Tennessee, after Christmas. I think you must mean the Roanoke River in Virginia, named for the red/brown "Roan" sediments that flow down from the hills of the Blue Ridge mountains. I don't recognize Yerby Daniel, but encourage you to find some male descendants to participate in our Daniel DNA project. Also, while the DANIEL list is informative, the local county lists at rootsweb really give a lot of information too. I participate in several Mississippi and Tennessee lists and the Buncombe North Carolina list too. Thanks for bringing up the question of the Daniel lines that are not from the southern coastal region. "ROANOKE, a river of the South Atlantic Slope, U.S.A. With the Staunton, which rises in the Appalachian Valley in southwestern Virginia, it constitutes one river, and, flowing in a general south-easterly direction, crosses the boundary between Virginia and North Carolina just above the Fall Line and discharges into Albemarle Sound."

P, There is something amiss on these Cunningham-Daniels. A thought I had is that Thomas DANIEL who married was it Sarah RANDLE was the son of James DANIEL and Jean KELSO. That would put is his birth in the 1740 time frame, something we have always considered. They were the parents of Charles DANIEL who married Elizabeth COFFEE. At the same time in Greene County, GA is another Thomas DANIEL, the one who married Sarah BURNEY. This Thomas was either Thomas DANIEL, Jr, son of T&E or a grandson of this family. Which, I do not know. I tend to think the James DANIEL who married Jean KELSO was not a descendant of Roger DANIELL. I will take a closer look at your assignment of this James to that family to see what the KELSO information states, since her brother was a Robert KELSO. As for the Robert C. DANIEL listed in the will of Jane EWING, I offer the following 1860 Jefferson County, GA census. For the name, Robert, especially one with a C. as the middle initial being a rather unpopular name in all of these families, all of a sudden we have lots of them floating around all over the place (person, 23 99, below), don't we? That Robert DANIEL at the top of this census is my GGF and the Alice, age 6, listed below him is my grandmother. Mary J. DANIEL is Mary Jane RENEAU, his 4th wife. The three WISE boys listed with them are his nephews and the GREEN boy is a nephew of his late, 3rd wife, Rachel Rebecca GREEN who died in 1851. I do not know who the BELL and PETERSON boys are, but probably family of sorts since all of the others are family. I also tend to think, now, his 3rd wife, Rachel Rebecca GREEN (1824-1851) was the daughter of William GREEN and Rachel WARREN, and Rachel was the d/o Hinche WARREN (1745-1804) and Rachel ANDERSON and g/d of Robert WARREN of Surry County, VA. I have Hinche's will (transcription, below) and it confirms the William GREEN and Rachel WARREN marriage. I had his name as Daniel GREEN from another researcher but this was incorrect and the names, William and John, float all through this family supporting this re-assignment. If so, this puts this Robert WARREN as being the Robert WARREN born ABT 1682 in Surry County, VA, the son of Thomas WARREN, Jr. and Elizabeth PLAW and grandson of Capt. Thomas WARREN and Mary Alice POWELL of Surry. As such, this Robert WARREN was the nephew of Allen WARREN, Sr. (1662-1738) who married Elizabeth CLEMENTS and this brings us right back to the Whitfield-Jordan bunch, doesn't it? <<< 1860 Jefferson County, GA Census: 12 99 99 Daniel Robert W. 50 M .

Hi Anne: I'd love to hear what you might be able to find at Baylor U - there should be quite alot on Charles Davis Daniel there, as that is where he graduated too. Talking about a missionary that was killed in China - Charles Davis Daniel's mother used the "Haseltine" name as her middle name - she was Mary Ann Haseltine Daniel - but, usually signed as Ann H. Daniel. I understand that the Haseltine's had been Baptist missonaries who had been killed or murdered in China. And, I've seen another Daniel woman who used Haseltine as her middle name, also. Regarding "Mayfield". What has recently peaked my interest is the name in connection with a couple of families that were collaterals of my Daniel family in Monroe Co., AL. My great+++ Aunt, Drucilla Daniel married Col. Asa Thompson Oliver in Brazil. I've recently been able to find out information about their son Asa T. Oliver, Jr., so I've been researching the Oliver line and the descendents of Rev. War Privateer Dioniysius Oliver who found Petersburg, Elbert Co., GA - which he named after his hometown of Petersburg, VA. And, in particular, the writing of Col. Edmund Sanders in his "Early Settlers of Alabama". Now, I know that not all in Col. Sanders works are accurate - but, I do give him credit for documenting a very interesting migration pattern, and a group of "hearding" families, of which the Olivers were one. There is only an occasional "Daniel" that marries into this group - but, there are a few of them. This is where the Hudson's connect, as part of this hearding family. The Mayfield's were also part of the heard. One - Martha Mayfield married Zimri Tate of Elbert Co. GA. There were also Maxwell's in this group, as were the Bibb's, Watkins, Winfrey, Williamson, Cobb, Banks, Webb, Cook, descendants of Christorpher Clark & Mildred Terrell, White's, McGeehee, Shelton, Shackelford, DeJarnette, Coleman, Colson/Coleson (just to name a few) - an interesting group of folks. And, most of them settled in Elbert Co for a while around 1800 or before, depending on the family.
