I thought you were suggesting that Aaron was born someplace else, was He? As to the notes, the originals back at St. David's Church, I haven't an opinion yet!

I do not think your notes are cobbled up but these notes that I have for Aaron do not compare with the originals back at St. David's Church, although some of the same names are on both of these sources. This tells me that someone has added Aaron's name to this list of names at St. David's Church. Or, Virginia PROCTOR left his name off this list for some unknown reason. I do not know which is correct but that is what she has on the Marlboro County, SC website. This is why the Vestry Records of St. David's Church need to be looked at and compared against these notes to see where they differ. I also found some very interesting deeds on this Marlboro County, SC website, especially an 1816 deed for a John DERDEN (below). As I have told you several times, my grandmother, ended up with Land Lot 74 in Land District 19 in Morgan County, GA, formerly part of Baldwin County. This was land owned by John DURDEN, who went bankrupt in 1873 and his land was sold at the courthouse square in Madison and guess what he did -- he bought it all back, at least LL 74, LD 19. However, guess who ended up with it and there is no grantee-grantor record of how she got it? My grandmother, Alice Daniel RICHTER. Neither Marshall WILLIAMS, archivist of Morgan County, nor I have ever been able to figure this one out. My opinion is that John DURDEN was some kind of family and Alice took her $700 inheritance from her father, Robert W. DANIEL, which she had gotten a few years before (1867) her marriage to John RICHTER (1872), and bailed out John DURDEN because the purchase price was $709.25, almost exactly what she had gotten from her father's estate. Then, after his death, she inherited the property which is why there is not a Grantor-Grantee record of this transaction. Note: There are also some very familiar names in this 1816 SC deed. Maybe someone will see somthing that I do not. <<< John DERDEN to James FIELDS, 1816 Contributed by Brenda Wagner John Derden of the District of Chesterfield, for $5000, to James Fields of the District of Marlboro, 200 acres, a tract granted by Arthur Dobbs to Robert Palmer, 10 Oct 1755, and conveyed by Wm.

Payne, My guess is that all of T&E's kids were born in Chowan or Tyrrell County, NC, so take your pick. Since Edenton, NC was the thriving metropolis of that area in that time frame, they probably lived somewhere near Edenton, maybe right across the sound in Tyrrell County, NC, as most suggest. Remember, the POLLACKS and I assume, CULLENS, lived adjacent to them, according to deeds of the period. What I find interesting is that Elizabeth Lanier DANIEL's will was probated in Beaufort County, NC in 1752. Did she move down from Tyrrell to be with her oldest son, RLD, after Thomas's death in 1749, since Pitt was formed from Beaufort and RLD, actually lived right on the border with Beaufort in Pactolus, Pitt County, NC. This, to me, would be the reason her will was probated in Beaufort and not in Tyrrell. What I find a little bit worrisome about Aaron is his connection to Duplin County, NC but this may be because Matthew WHITFIELD was lived, there. We do know that Matthew WHITFIELD, his father-in-law, was living in the Cheraw area, later, and Aaron seems to have followed him to this part of SC. I think we can straighten out Aaron and Betsy's family but we need some more information, like accurate vestry records from St. David's Church in Cheraw, SC. I also know they are on microfilm in the SC archives but I do not like it when I see his name listed in some family references to this church and not listed in impartial transcriptions of these church vestry records. That, tells me something may be amiss, here. Not to forget there were about three Aaron DANIELS operating in upstate SC in this same time frame........ It takes more than just a given name to connect a son or daughter to a set of parents. If we connect siblings to each other and one of these siblings to a set of parents, this is sufficient proof to establish the parents of the rest of these known siblings. However, in thinking back over the T&E bunch, I do not think we can tie any of these children back to T&E. can we? I went back and looked at the Robert Lanier DANIEL deed to John LANIER where his wife was mentioned as a Jemima DANIEL. This has to be the John LANIER who was a sister of Elizabeth LANIER who married Thomas DANIEL. The thing that bothered me was the reference to the SMITHWICK name in this deed. Not to forget the Jemima that was a daughter of Robert DANIEL of Martin County, NC who married Mary SWAIN, whose mother was a SMITHWICK. Notice the William SWANNER who was a witness to this deed. I somehow get the feeling this RLD may not be the RLD we think of later in Pitt. If he is selling the home place, which requires the wife to sign away her dower rights, then this Robert may be older than we think. It could also well be Robert DANIEL of Martin and his first wife, Jemima, and after her death he married Mary SWAIN born ABT 1722 because I do not start picking up kids for them until AFT 1760. This would account for the SMITHWICK connection and the Jemima name connection in this family. However, this Robert L. DANIELL says he was of Beaufort County, NC and not Tyrrell County, NC or even Edgecombe. . If there are more than one RLD's operating in this time frame in this general area, this may also account for all of the Robert Lanier DANIELS we see floating around this area in this time frame. There is something not right, here, and I do not know quite what it is..... John R.

John, I think I understand your suspicions regarding the T&E family especially Robert Lanier Daniel. We have traversed this set of possibilities before but it doesn't hurt to sort them out again. Was one Robert married to two ladies, or two Roberts married to a single lady etc.? Were there two RLDs operating in the area at the same time? Who knows? I think, just me, that Robert Lanier Daniel was married to Jemima Willis and that Robert Daniel of Martin married Mary Swain. This may be a tiresome reference but: Robert Lanier Daniel and Jemima both signed Deed Bk 2, pgs 9-11 in Tyrrell County in 1748 as residents. (Lanier Daniel, of Beaufort County, on May 17, 1748, sold this land--the same 83 acres in Tyrrell--to John Lanier (an uncle) of Tyrrell County for 90 pounds. The deed was signed by Robert Lanier Daniel and Jemina Daniel (his wife). Witnesses William Taner, Sarah Sellers, and Michel Wess, -- Ibid., 2, pp. 9-11.) Now Robert Daniel of Martin where the Smithwick reference is made to Robert Jr. (I start picking up kids at abt 1740 not aft 1760: Will of Robert Sr.:Will Book No. 1 page 127 Martin County N. C. (Office of Clerk of Court): Robert Daniel of Martin Co., N. C. will Sept. 17, 1786.

Since Edenton, NC was the thriving metropolis of that area in that time frame, they probably lived somewhere near Edenton, maybe right across the sound in Tyrrell County, NC, as most suggest. Remember, the POLLACKS and I assume, CULLENS, lived adjacent to them, according to deeds of the period. What I find interesting is that Elizabeth Lanier DANIEL's will was probated in Beaufort County, NC in 1752. Did she move down from Tyrrell to be with her oldest son, RLD, after Thomas's death in 1749, since Pitt was formed from Beaufort and RLD, actually lived right on the border with Beaufort in Pactolus, Pitt County, NC. This, to me, would be the reason her will was probated in Beaufort and not in Tyrrell. What I find a little bit worrisome about Aaron is his connection to Duplin County, NC but this may be because Matthew WHITFIELD was lived, there. We do know that Matthew WHITFIELD, his father-in-law, was living in the Cheraw area, later, and Aaron seems to have followed him to this part of SC. I think we can straighten out Aaron and Betsy's family but we need some more information, like accurate vestry records from St. David's Church in Cheraw, SC. I also know they are on microfilm in the SC archives but I do not like it when I see his name listed in some family references to this church and not listed in impartial transcriptions of these church vestry records. That, tells me something may be amiss, here. Not to forget there were about three Aaron DANIELS operating in upstate SC in this same time frame........ It takes more than just a given name to connect a son or daughter to a set of parents. If we connect siblings to each other and one of these siblings to a set of parents, this is sufficient proof to establish the parents of the rest of these known siblings. However, in thinking back over the T&E bunch, I do not think we can tie any of these children back to T&E. can we? I went back and looked at the Robert Lanier DANIEL deed to John LANIER where his wife was mentioned as a Jemima DANIEL. This has to be the John LANIER who was a sister of Elizabeth LANIER who married Thomas DANIEL. The thing that bothered me was the reference to the SMITHWICK name in this deed. Not to forget the Jemima that was a daughter of Robert DANIEL of Martin County, NC who married Mary SWAIN, whose mother was a SMITHWICK. Notice the William SWANNER who was a witness to this deed. I somehow get the feeling this RLD may not be the RLD we think of later in Pitt. If he is selling the home place, which requires the wife to sign away her dower rights, then this Robert may be older than we think. It could also well be Robert DANIEL of Martin and his first wife, Jemima, and after her death he married Mary SWAIN born ABT 1722 because I do not start picking up kids for them until AFT 1760. This would account for the SMITHWICK connection and the Jemima name connection in this family. However, this Robert L. DANIELL says he was of Beaufort County, NC and not Tyrrell County, NC or even Edgecombe. . If there are more than one RLD's operating in this time frame in this general area, this may also account for all of the Robert Lanier DANIELS we see floating around this area in this time frame. There is something not right, here, and I do not know quite what it is..... John R.
