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

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

I beg to differ on your take of our Daniel and Mayes bunch, Henry county, VA. Henry Mayes and his wife Phoebe Harrell were there, much is documented on this line, most of all of Edwards children married children of Henry Mays, Sherrod Mays, etc. My Martha Mayes married William Daniel son of Edward Daniel in Grainger county, TN. 1821. Also the John Daniel that married Hannah Grainge is a descendant of Edward Daniel, a cousin is working on this line. Sherrod, Goodwin Mayes are also documented along with this Daniel family. They have wills, etc. on Henry Maze. Can you show me where John Daniel and Hannah Grange actually belong ? Some facts that pertain to John Daniel and Hannah Grainge, if so I will gladly contact the family member and clarify or correct the mistake. Not to offend in anyway, but my intention is to get facts not assumptions as to who they belong to. But Henry Mayes and Pheobe Harrell are diffinatly connected to our line, along with the Bridges, Hills, Jeffre! ys, Cottons, Norfleets, Rhodes, etc. Also there is Edward Daniel and Francis Daniel early in TN. church minutes. Vickie "John R. Clarke" <jclarke@rose.net> wrote:Vickie, I think you have a lot of apples and oranges in some of that information, especially that part about John DANIELL and Hannah GRANGE moving to Granger County, TN. Or, the MAYES and DANIEL bunch. Granted, I think the DANIELL information is some of the worst we have but I would tend to think this John and Hannah either stayed around eastern NC or moved to somewhere down in SC or GA. As for the MAYES connection, one of the O'DANIELS out of Fairfax County, VA married a MAYES and Robert DANIELL has not been able to find out what happened to him other than his O'DANIEL girl died in SC. That's one of the problems when you look for specific names, there were lots of folks that had the same names in this period because they did not use a lot of different given names. So, it has been real easy for some researchers to grab on to the first Thomas DANIEL they find and say that was their ancestor -- if some will or deeds lists their known ancestor as a son of a Thomas DANIEL. However, that Thomas DANIEL could have been a Thomas DONNEL., Thomas DANIELLY or even a Thomas McDONALD. This is why I try to find the surnames that are collateral with my bunch in a certain area and then look for a blend of those same surnames in the area they moved to later. What I do is work, backwards. First, in my example, I took my known DANIEL bunch in Jefferson County, GA and I have developed all of their collaterals, who they married, where these folks came from and who were the ancestors of their collaterals and where they came from.. In other words, I know most everybody around or even remotely close to my DANIEL family in Burke and Jefferson County, GA. From this I have been able to develop not only a profile of my bunch but also a flavor as to the migration path each of these families took to reach Burke and later, Jefferson County, GA. However, I am dependent, to some degree, on the accuracy of the information researched by others and some of this information stinks. One of these is the TARVER information that has come out of Burke and Jefferson County, GA. I would not trust one scrap of information from this family. There are others, too. One of the things that I know about my Robert C. DANIEL (ABT 1764-AFT 1830) of Burke County, GA is that he or his wife had to come from a rather wealthy family because he hit Burke County, GA with more than pocket change. Considering that most of these families always seemed to find a way to have 10 or more chillen and Robert hit Burke with 10 slaves then he had to come from a family that had, at the very least, 50 or more slaves. I base this on an equal distribution of males and females in his family, meaning their were five boys and five girls and each of the boys got an equal distribution of the estate of their parents. However, his slaves could have come from the estate of his wife's parents, that I do not know. Or, they could have been a equal distribution from both his family and her family or he could have been an only child but I tend to discount this. Regardless, I think the least number of deductions that I must make in this matter is probably the simplest answer -- they came from his family. Since this Robert DANIEL was probably not the oldest boy in his family, he probably did not get a lion's share of his father's estate and over time the few slaves he got from his family could well be represented by the 10 slaves he had in 1820, when he was about age 50-55. It is not just sufficient to chase the given names in a certain family but you must also always chase the money, like the accountants say. So, I know that Robert C. DANIEL of Burke came from a good family, maybe not exactly landed gentry, but somewhere near this lofty group. He also seems to have married well since Isam LANE owned ABT 2,000 acres of land in Greene and Wayne County, NC when he died but I also know that his son, John LANE, got most of this land and not Robert's wife, Penelope LANE. I also know that his chillen in Burke tended to marry folks who either came down with them from NC or were related to folks they knew or were collateral with back in NC. His and Penelope's kids also tended to do well in their new location (s) and most of their kids families were worth in the 20K range by 1860 and this was not peanuts. I do get the feeling that these DANIELS did not make their fortunes off the backs of others and that slavery engaged agriculture was not one of their main pursuits. However, I do know they owned slaves but not in the proportions of others of their station in the same area. Also, some were Baptist and some were Methodist and the difference may have been due to who they married and not because of some ideological difference in religious doctrine between these two religions. This is kind of what you have to do with your family or with any family you research because if you do not know them, you will never be able to put them all together. I get hundreds of emails each day but only a few grab my attention. They do not do it by the specific names listed in that post but by the blend of names in that post combined with a specific location in a specific time frame. In the course of the last 15 years I have written hundreds of folks about their DANIEL ancestors and I have gotten hundreds of emails back saying their family was in no way related to my family. This is to be expected, not because my assessment was not correct, but because they did not know their family as well as they thought they did. So, just hang in there and one day we will all see the light and find out the answers to the many questions we have about our specific DANIEL bunch. John R. Clarke Thomasville, GA ----- Original Message ----- From: "Vickie Lomon" To: Sent: Sunday, April 25, 2004 2:12 AM Subject: [DANIEL-L] Notes on Edward Daniel, Mayo River, deeds, also Brett and Walter Daniel,John Daniels, SR. and JR. enclosed are compiled notes by another researcher working on the Edward Daniel line, I don't know how accurate it is, but I thought I would post it to see if anyone reconizes these families and names. EDWARD DANIEL - all information The York County, Va Daniell are descendants of the FIRST FOUR Daniell in Colony of Va. who came from Bristol England area. Somersetshire & Wiltshire branches of the family. Roger - John - Edward - Thomas There are also three other Daniell emigrants - Daniell, Henry, & Walter Colonel Peter Daniel, of Crow's Nest, mentioned as one of the neighbors of George Mason, of historic Gunston Hall, becoming the property of Edward Daniels. Gunston Hall was partially restored by Edward. It is one of the best types of Virginia colonial mansions. Peter, s/o James, s/o Charles, s/o James, the first ancestor - See complete article under Peter - Ancestry and Probable Origin of the Daniell Family of York, VA by Worth Stickley Ray - BK 929.273 D227r 27 Jul 1635 - Edward Daniell & Richard Cary came to Va. on the "Primrose" embarking at Gravesend, England with Capt. Douglass, Master. The Cary & Daniell families related. See Henry Daniell Note: Richard Cary was s/o Christopher Cary, of Bristol, England. He had a brother, John Cary and sister who married Henry Daniell, of Bristol, as shown by an indenture of Christopher Daniell and his wife Margaret, which appears in Waters "Gleanings", in which he states, "my two sons, Richard & John Cary, and my son-in-law, Henry Daniell, dated 1672. The probability that this Henry Daniell & Edward, Roger & John being related, are very strong. Note: Christopher Cary, s/o Christopher Cary, ca 1568-1626, married Lettice Young, was a merchant & Sheriff of Bristol, Eng. He was brother of William Cary (actually � bro.) who M: Goodall and had Miles Cary, the emigrant & kinsman of Roger Daniell. "Virginia Carys"p.15-20 Note: Article on Richard Cary, "Virginia Carys", p. 146: " on July 27, 1635, a number of young men bound for Va on the ship Primrose, Capt. Douglass, took the oaths of allegiance & supremacy at Gravesend. Among them was Richard Cary aged 17. He may well have been the same Richard Cary who, on October 13, 1653, patented 1350acres of land in Gloucester Co., VA. In 1662 this last named Richard joined one George Seaton in taking out a patent to 6,000 acres on the Potomac, in Westmoreland Co.,(later Stafford) not far from the 3000 acres which Miles Cary of Warwick had patented in the same county in 1654. He left a will dated Nov. 29, 1682, in which he named tow sons, Richard & John. (The will is lost in the Gloucester recds, but a recital in a deed in 1759. See Virginia Magazine II, page 280 - This Richard Cary could be ancestor of Hugh Cary, administrator of Hugh Ballentine, who sued James Daniel & wife Elizabeth in Goochland, in 1735, as shown by Judge Newman's acct of the Daniel Fam. - Va. Mag. XII, p. 253 - Notes Relating to connection of the Daniell & Cary Fam. by Worth Stickley Ray, 929.273 D227r June 1636 - John Neale, a well known figure on the early records of Accomac Co., VA, appears to have made the first claim to having transported Edward Daniell to the Colony, when he patented 1500a of land on the "Eastern Shore" on this date. (Nugent, p. 43) Among many others claimed at the same time as his headrights were, Thomas Adams, William Pearce, Ann Prosser and Henry Robinson. In the early records of the Daniell family of King & Queen and Carolina, the name of John Prosser frequently occurs as a close associate and neighbor. Two years later on May 10, 1638, the well known resident of the "Eastern Shore", Stephen Charlton, took out a certificate for 1000 acres in Accomac and among the headrights he claimed to own, were Thomas Bell, John Robinson, Edward Daniell and others. William Daniell, bro. of John Daniell of York, VA has a son Alexander Daniell, whose daughter, Elizabeth married Elias Bell. (Nugent, p. 82, for Charleton's patent) It was not until, 8, Oct 1644, after Edward Daniell had been in the colony nearly ten years, that he was used as a headright by Edwin Conway, when he patented his 500a in Northampton, Va, at Hungar's Creek and claimed he had transported to VA, among several others mentioned, Francis Harrison, William Burrell, John Powell and Edward Daniell. This clearly shows that Edward Daniell appeared in VA about the same time as Roger, John, Walter and Henry Daniell. This Edward Daniell settled in Accomac and in Northampton, VA for two years after Neale's patent in 1636. His name appears on the Accomac Co., records as a witness in a dispute between Stephen Charleton and others. (Fleet's VA Abstracts, Vol. 32, p. 61 & 62) In between the several times his name was used as a headright, he may have travel out of the country, selling his headright in each instance, to which he was entitled, to the next person who used it. It is believed that Edward may have went to Maryland; that the Bates and other influences drew him into the Quakers. This has never been proven. He may have been the father of William, who was living in Somerset Co., Maryland, between 1666 & 1700 and that the relationship between William Stone, Governor of Maryland (from Northampton, Va) and his family, accounts for the Daniell Family of Prince George and Charles, Maryland, shown on the Maryland Records. Old Somerset, p. 465 In Torrence's Old Somerset, Anguish Morrow, of Dorset County, MD, married Rose Daniell, of Somerset Co., MD, in 1676 and Edward Evans married Mary Daniell, in Somerset, on May 22, 1677. Worth Stickley Ray, writer of this compilation, is a descendant from Armstrong Morrow, who married Margaret Daniell. While the Morrows, Daniell, and Rays, intermarried for many generations, the above record (Old Somerset, p. 401) is the first such authentic record found that far back. That Mary and Rose Daniell, were daughters of William Daniell, son of Edward Daniell, the emigrant, is not improbable.

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