Anne, I do not think a lot of the folks that came to GA from eastern NC or VA after the RW did so in the 1770 time frame, which is a time frame a lot of people like to say was when their ancestors first got to GA. The major migration period to GA started about 1785 and lasted until about 1815 - a period of about 30 years. Most RS land grants to soldiers who served GA units were not made until ABT the 1790-1800 time frame. Those RS who served other states generally came later (AFT 1805) and one had a three year residency requirement for these lotteries, as I remember. Also, not too many folks moved directly to Liberty County, GA. About the only folks down in that area of GA were the descendants of persons who came over to GA with Oglethorpe in 1733, or those involved in some type of seaborne commerce because Liberty County, GA is right on the coast. I went by Midway Church many times as a boy on the way to Savannah so I know, well where it is. Generally, everybody that came to GA from another state settled, initially, in the Richmond, Washington, Burke and Effingham County areas or Jefferson, Bulloch or Screven County areas after they were created. They did this so they could politick the legislature and governor in Louisville and later in Milledgeville for their RS land grants. Getting a land grant back then, even for a soldiers who served GA during the RW, was like doing business, these days, with any state or federal bureaucracy - lots of paper work with lots of T's to cross and I's to dot. As you probably know, this took time, lots of it and families had to live and survive during this bureaucratic process so they had to have a place to live. What one must not forget were the two basic avenues of entry into GA after the RW. They were via Savannah and Augusta. Those who came to GA via of a ship, usually landed in Savannah and moved inland from there, usually up the Savannah River to Augusta. Those who came down from NC or VA, as was the case for most of our ancestors, usually entered GA by crossing the Savannah River at Augusta. Other ports of entry were Beaufort, SC and then traveling across southern SC, usually via of Savannah, into GA or landing at Charleston, SC and then hoofing it all the way across SC into GA. Also, in this time frame and even later, the general avenues of entry used by most persons were waterways and the one that got the most traffic in this time frame was the Savannah River which was generally navigable as far north as Augusta. Regardless, this was not an easy migration for these persons and their families because the Interstate highway system was still some 200 years in the future. <grin> This is all in addition to the pestilence they would have to face during their transit through the GA's many malarial infested swamps that always seemed to impede their journey. Nor the frequent Indian attacks they would face well into the 1830's in some rural areas of GA. These were difficult times and were not for the meek or the timid. All you really have to do is look at the first 50 years of Georgia settlement to see how difficult this terrain really was. By 1783, some 50 years after Oglethorpe first landed at Savannah, settlers had barely made it inland 40 or so miles from either Augusta or Savannah. This would change, but it would take time.......

OK - there you go! I knew someone out here had mentioned their Daniel's being from Waco or Liberty Co., TX. One of my Daniel's line goes to Waco in late 1880's & was a well known Baptist Minister in the area & was missionary to Cuba and Brazil - but Waco was his home. He was Charles Davis Daniel who married Lena Kirk. I have several aunt's and uncle's that would be highly upset (fighting mad would be more like it) to be told that they weren't kid to Price Daniel, anyway - don't know about Bill. Oh, brother! They just won't hear any part of it not being so. They are very old - so, I don't get them upset by talking about facts. I've looked for the connection - but, if there was one - it's back further than Price or his father. - Ruth in Portland, OR ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jack V Butler" <JackVButler@comcast.net> To: <DANIEL-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Sunday, November 30, 2003 2:43 PM Subject: Re: [DANIEL-L] Re: Bill and Price Daniel - DANIEL-D Digest V03 #475 > Gloria, if I remember correctly, you family story also says that your > ancestor is from the Liberty County group - and that he is buried in Liberty > County. > > I do not see any way that both stories can be true. > > Jack Butler > ----- Original Message ----- > From: <Taosbg@aol.com> > To: <DANIEL-L@rootsweb.com> > Sent: Sunday, November 30, 2003 5:22 PM > Subject: Re: [DANIEL-L] Re: Bill and Price Daniel - DANIEL-D Digest V03 #475 > > > > Anne, > > I was interested in seeing you mention the French Huguenots as collaterals > of > > the Daniel line. > > My Daniel cousin took the DNA and he matched Lucy's line and was a > mutation > > off a couple of others.

Oh, Gloria, I can understand your frustration about strong, verbal family history, and believe me, I am not saying it isn't true. I have had some of both come up in my research. I came on-List in early 2001, then was off-line about nine or ten months during 2002 and have been back on-List for about nine months, and may have missed some of background on things I am seeing now, and I am not sure what your "line" is, or what Jack's comment about your line being that "Liberty" County group means. Is that Liberty Co., GA formed 1777? If so, then I doubt if we have a connection, since my DANIEL line and their collateral lines came into the N/E Parishes and counties, and did get down any further down than Baldwin Co., if at all, until way, way up in the late 1800s even.. In the case of my DANIEL line in TX, "Liberty" has been an established town in southeast Texas (Coushatta Indian territory) since way back in the Spanish rule days. It has been said (and continues to be argued about) that the "Lone Star" flag of Texas was designed there after the Battle of Santa Anna and that Sam Houston approved the design there. When the county of Montgomery was formed it spread over a great deal of south east Texas (about one-fifth or one-sixth the size of the current State of Texas and was/is known as the "Piney Woods', very reminiscent of the landscape of much of GA.), much of the original county designated to be for the families Stephen F. Austin was to and did bring to colonize Texas. Liberty the town, or pueblo, became the capitol of the county, and still is of the now greatly reduced in size Montgomery county. Old Spanish land grants will, no doubt, confirm Sherlene's ancestor, Capt. CHERRY (deCHERIE) to be an even earlier settler than the Austin "300". I am NOT, by any means, any kind of expert on Huguenot or "French" Huguenot immigrants, except from my own research, in which I learned that Huguenot is a corrupted French word for all religiously persecuted Protestant citizens of France and neighboring areas, who over a period of about a hundred years, fled France to other countries, such as Holland, Belgium, Germany, Norway and many to England, Ireland, and Scotland, where they had commerce or trade connections. Some stayed where they went, others stayed a generation or two, then immigrated, and I suppose some came early on directly from France. I don't remember the time frame of the siege of Savannah, but if your Josephus/Joseph deserted or jumped ship (probably with good reason!!) he may have, like many Prussian soldiers during the Rev War in substantially German settled PA, simply changed his name - or not, married and stayed on. I know this is not much help, and Jack is probably much more conversant on this subject than I, but I do know my documented Manakin Town, VA "French" Huguenot lines that are collateral ancestors to this 1786 b.GA Thomas Daniel line are Pierre (Peter) DAVID and Peter RUCKER (do we hear German or Dutch ancestry here?), both of which lines had descendants who came down into GA (some through NC and SC) in the late 1700s and early 1800s - before or when they married into my direct DANIEL line (as well as my direct FAULKNER line), along with ALMAND/ALMON, USSERY, TINSLEY, VERNON, and others they picked up along the way. John's SOBLETS/SUBLETTES and CHASTAINS were among the same group as my DAVIDS and RUCKERS in the Manakin Town group who petitioned the Burgesses in the early 1700s for naturalization (which was granted by an Act of the Burgesses/Legislature), his FARRARS in an earlier group in that same area.

Good Morning, I found something interesting during some recent research on the DURDEN, SUMNER, FLANDERS and CHESTNUTT families of Emanuel County, Ga -- the PRICE family. Rice PRICE (1822-1880) was married to a Mary Jane WHITFIELD, d/o Robert WHITFIELD and Rebecca. Rice was the son of a James Mitchell PRICE and an Elizabeth BLACK and the grandson of a Rice PRICE and a Mourning MOORE. They say that Elizabeth BLACK was the d/o of Robert BLACK and Lovicy BRUTON. These MOORES really interest me because I think these Emanuel County, GA MOORES point directly back to Pitt County, NC. The children of Rice PRICE and Mourning MOORE were: James Mitchell PRICE born ABT 1790 who married Elizabeth BLACK, Littleberry PRICE born ABT 1797 who married Elizabeth TURNER, Moore PRICE b. ABT 1800 who married Mary "Polly" MAXWELL, Olive PRICE b. ABT 1800 dnm., Nathan PRICE born ABT 1813 who married Nancy JOHNSON (probably JOHNSTON) and Warren PRICE b. 1814 who married Martha ELY. The one thing I know about the MAXWELLS, they were of Liberty County, GA, another key location for some of these DANIELS. RE: Audley MAXWELL (1766-1840) of Liberty County, GA married a Mary STEVENS and we know that John DANIEL, who some say was a son of Aaron and Betsy, married a Rebecca STEVENS/STEPHENS. One of Audley's daughters, Julia Rebecca MAXWELL born 1808 married Roswell KING and I hope I do not have to tell you who this old boy was. <grin> I also noticed a KING family tied in more than one instance to this overall bunch. Needless to say, this link to Roswell KING ties us back to some very influential GA families, including the KINGS, BULLOCHS, CALLOWAYS, JONES families, etc, as well as quite a few Charleston, SC families of the same note. I also liked the PRICE connection to the SCOTTS in and around Emanuel County, GA because I know they are tied to my COLEMANS and it also turns out they were collateral with the FLANDERS, a family I really keep my eye on. Nancy PRICE, whose mother was a Mary, married Brittan SCOTT. Their son, John SCOTT born 1829 married Eliza FLANDERS, d/o Rev. Jordan FLANDERS and his second wife, Mary Ann Jane DANIEL of Emanuel County, GA. The mother of Rev. Jordan FLANDERS, clerk in Emanuel, was Nancy JORDAN and her sister, Celia, married Samuel TARVER, III of Richmond County, GA. This whole bunch, DANIEL, JORDAN, TARVER, SUMER, BLACK, PRICE, SCOTT, COLEMAN, STEVENS, MAXWELL, DURDEN, THOMPSON, CHESTNUTT and their known collaterals are very close down in the Emanuel County, GA area and all of this smells, to me, of families from one of those either eastern NC counties, IOW County, VA, or both, although I'm sure they probably picked up some collaterals as they moved through SC on their way to GA. The reason I said JOHNSTON instead of JOHNSON is because folks in this time frame could never get the spelling of this name right and often listed JOHNSON instead of JOHNSTON. Just another quirk of those times...... John R. Clarke Thomasville, GA

SO, Captain William Daniell was the founder of the Daniel family in Middlesex County, Virginia in 1660 and to day there is a Christ Church Parish in Milldlesex and a Christ Church Parish in Lancaster. William Daniel, Sr. received land patent in 1672 in Middlesex Co., Va. A Col. Chisley was also an early settler in the Northern Necks of Virginia. "A Place in Time, Middlesex County, Virginia, 1650-1750" Notice the name Chisley, John. Hugh's son William was not the Captain William Daniel of Middlesex or the William Daniel of Caroline and while I suspect that some GEDCOM files etc., may infer that, the claim is quite improvable. Poor old William, the son of Hugh, has been a conveinient place to hang unproven data to. With or without a source reference,William Daniel was grandson of Luke Billington as per the will.

Middlesex County, VA, according to the Middlesex County, VA website was formed ABT 1669 from Lancaster County, VA. I do not know the reason they say "about 1669." Probably the reason there is no exact date for its formation is because VA, in that time frame, was broken down into parishes and they, instead of counties, were the "local units of ecclesiastical and community organization." Direct quote from the Middlesex County, VA website: <<< Middlesex County was probably named for the English county. It was formed from Lancaster about 1669.

Anne, I learned two things last week when I was talking genealogy with a college history professor whose family was from Georgetown, SC. 1. Any French name that begins with the prefix, "De", means that family was of noble birth. So the De RENAULD name, which later was shortened to RENEAU and RENO, was a noble family from France. 2. Any Prussian family whose son was a officer in the Prussian Army in the pre-1871 time frame would have been a "Junker" and their name would be preceded with the prefix, "von." The reason being is only Junkers could be appointed officers in the Prussian Army, so my RICHTER family of Liegnitz, Schlesien, Prussia was really "von RICHTER," the possibility of which has long been passed down through the family, since we know from an 1833 letter that one of my great-uncles was an officer in the Prussian Army. I also learned something else for you SC researchers -- Horry, as in Horry County, SC, is pronounced, "Orry" and Cheraw is pronounced, "She-ra," the French pronunciation of the word. John R.

Jack, It was not a source.

Jack, I agree, 100%. The more I think about it, the more I think there is a good possibility Abraham was a sibling of Enoch DANIEL or somewhere out of that RLD family but he could have been a son of Aaron and Betsy as most state. Notice the Ann STAFFORD who was the grandmother of Ann Eliza BIRD, Enoch's wife and we know the STAFFORDS are tied to this DANIEL bunch. At least I am reasonably sure, IOW and quite possibly Lanier-Daniels. However, the Abraham name is all through this bunch so he could have been out of the Northampton County, NC bunch. The one thing that makes me think Pitt more so than any other location is the MOORE connection. What I want to know about those TAYLORS and are they related to the TAYLORS I have in Burke, later Washington. RE: William P. TAYLOR born 1787, NC who married Amelia DANIEL born 1795, also NC.

The Daniels buried at Taylor's Creek are Abraham Daniel and some of his descendants. I am pretty sure that Abraham Daniel was born in North Carolina. I would bet strongly against him being foreign born.

Story was they were buried at Taylors Creek. Jack, I know and it has me very confused also. He is so adament. I am not sure which 2 stories conlict in your mind, specifically. I recently talked with him and he is full of family information but he is old. I confess I have not looked at the old census record but he says there was an older person in the home who was not naturalized and he is convinced this is father of Joseph (Josephus). I do believe story that Joseph was really Josephus, as this comes from my aunt and she was genealogist in her day and her mind is still clear. Gloria
