Anne, (Robert DANIELL take note of this complete message) Let me tell you what I know about the TINSLEYS. If you read my post this morning then you saw the ODANIEL link to one of the HARDWICK girls, another which married into the FITZPATRICKS. That said, Nancy TALBERT, d/o Samuel TALBERT II and Mary O'DANIEL, married, William TINSLEY. William TINSLEY (1789-1841) was born in 96 District, SC but died in Todd Co., Kentucky. Mary O'DANIEL (1742-AFT 1798) was the d/o John O'DANIEL, Sr. and Elizabeth MOXLEY of Accotink Run, Fairfax County, Virginia and Mary O'DANIEL was a sister of William DANIEL (1747-1807) of Edgefield County, SC who married Lucretia BELL. I know this bunch like the back of my hand, which brings us back to my TINLEY and your, TINSLEY. I know that a William TINLEY, Sr. was in the Richmond County, GA/Edgefield County, SC area before the RW. I also know a Jesse DANIEL married a Rebecca TINSLEY in Richmond County, GA in 1813. I cannot say this is not the same TINLEY/TINSLEY family but would bet money that Jesse is an O'DANIEL and probably a daughter of this William TINSLEY who married Nancy TALBERT...... From my sources, a John TINLEY, Jr. born 1791in Richmond County, GA married a WEATHERS and they had a son John Robert TINLEY, Sr. (1821-1845), born Edgefield County, SC, and he married Elizabeth Ann ERWIN (1825-1885). She was the daughter of Richard ERWIN (ABt 1795-1827) and Nancy DANIEL (1799-1862), my great-grand aunt. After Richard's death, Nancy married a WISE, some say, a Frederick WISE although his name is not known for sure. After TINLEY died, Mrs. Elisabeth Ann Erwin TINLEY married Robert Robinson VALLOTTON (1824-1887), s/o Francis Stephen VALLOTTON (1796-1859) and Sarah TARVER (1798-1879) of Burke County, GA. Sarah was the daughter of Ethelred Jordan TARVER (1767-AFT 1850) and Mary Nancy ROBINSON (1770-1850) of Augusta, Richmond County, GA. Ethelred Jordan TARVER was the son of Samuel TARVER III and Celia JORDAN of Augusta, GA and brother of Mark E. TARVER whose son, William Allen TARVER married Nancy DANIEL's sister, Lucretia DANIEL (1807-1849). We also know that MAJ James ERWIN (1752-1815) of Midway Plantation, Allendale County, SC married Sarah DANIEL (1762-1815), d/o of William O'DANIEL, Jr. and Unknown. Her niece was Mary O'DANIEL who married Samuel TALBERT. I cannot tie Richard ERWIN to this ERWIN line but I have always supposed this was his family and he could be a son of Sarah and James or a nephew. If so, my bet there is a WISE connection floating around this bunch somewhere in Edgefield, Richmond or Burke County, GA, and we already know the O'DANIELS are tied to a WISE family back in Fairfax County, VA. However, the O'DANIEL miss one given name I need, that of a Robert DANIEL. Were it not for this, we would have linked up a long time ago...... Also notice the Chesley C. DANIEL listed on the guardianship bond for the TINLEY kids. This is the same Chesley C. DANIEL who was the bondsman for the 1841 marriage of my GGF, Robert W. DANIEL to a Julia FLORENCE in Richmond County, GA. I do not believe she was a FLOURANCE but a FLOURNOY or FLANDERS. Anyway, this Julia must have died BEF 1845 because RWD married Rachel Rebecca GREEN (1824-1851), d/o William GREEN and Rachel WARREN of Emanuel County, GA. I do not know whether this is a distinct DANIEL and an O'DANIEL line or part of the same O'DANIEL line. However, I do not the BOULINEAU Family, listed in the following information, was of France and migrated into Camden County, GA after a short stop in the West Indies. They are also tied to my family in more ways than one, through the family of Burrell LATHROP and Mary Rosalie BOULINEAU and of Savannah, Chatham County, GA. Their children are listed at the end and that Charles E. MUSTIN list in that information was a brother of LT Milton Anthony MUSTIN, Esq., CSA (1834-1924) who married my grand aunt, Anna Maria RICHTER (1836-1926) of Madison, Morgan County, GA. Her younger brother, John, married Alice E. DANIEL.

Aunt Winnie would visit us on the farm with all of the Boulineau family in a buckboard. Aunt Winnie moved with her family to 3rd Street in Augusta and lived there with the last living daughter having it as her home until she died. She had a yard full of cats.

John, I am in the process of noting this complete message. I do read everything on the List, most more than once. Concerning the Jesse DANIEL of Richmond Co., GA being an O'DANIEL, I know of four Jesse DANIELs in the Fairfax O'DANIEL lines: 1. Jesse DANIELL, s/o James DANIELL (O'DANIEL of Fairfax, VA) of Fairfield, SC, died circa 1778. 2. Jesse DANIEL, the s/o William & Lucretia, married Martha S. BOND. This Jesse, executor of his brother Josiah's will, died in Edgefield in or before 1816. Martha DANIEL took an Adm'x Bond 6 June 1816. He would not be the Jesse who maried Rebecca TINSLEY in Richmond County, GA in 1813. 3. Jessie DANIELL, b. aft 1873 in Thomas Co., GA?, s/o John Levi DANIELL and Emma M. POPE. This family moved to Bardwell, Ellis County, Texas before March 1891 when Emma died there. 4.. Jesse Daniell Auston DANIEL would have been 19 years of age in 1813. If the Jesse who married Rebecca TINSLEY was 19 at the time of the marriage in Richmond Co., this may be your link. Here is what I have on this Jesse DANIEL: In his will of 1797, James DANIELL bequeathed to his "grandson Jesse DANIELL AUSTON, son of Betty AUSTON, when he comes of age, the land lying on the Oconey that I lent to my son Levi DANIELL. I also give him one half of the Negroes that I have lent to my wife after the death of my wife Nancy DANIELL." James named 21 slaves lent to Nancy in his will. In an accounting of the estate of Levi DANIEL, dec'd, an 1802 entry shows payment to Lewis PARKER for boarding and schooling of Jesse "Osten" for 1801 and 1802. On 27 November 1807, at the age of 13, Jesse Daniel AUSTIN legally changed his name to Jesse DANIEL. This may have to be a result of Jesse's being adopted by John and Martha DANIEL, or that they were his family and guardians. (National Genealogical Society Quarterly, Volume 55, Names Changed Legally in Georgia, 1800-1856, Page 183.) In 1816, William HARDWICK, executor of the will of James DANIELL, returned to the Hancock County Court of Ordinary an account against Jesse DANIELL, a minor and legatee of James in the amount of eighteen hundred & ninety dollars, fifty one & one half cents, along with an account of money received for Jesse amounting to fifteen hundred & ninty three dollars and eighty nine cents. After Nancy Daniell BARROW died, on 12 March 1814, James BARROW filed "a schedule of all the Negroes with their increase now in life (except one Negro man Sanco sold by James BARROW) that were lent by the last Will and Testament of James DANIELL dec'd. to his widow and relict Nancy DANIEL, afterwards Nancy BARROW, wife of James BARROW, during her natural life: Old Tom, Zouer(?), Old Rachel, Charlotte, Hester, Flander, Acre, Daphney, George, Moriah, Hictor, Biner, Dover, Caty, Peter, Pompy, Peggy, Ned, Ellinney, Billy, Moriah, Levin, Becky, Bob, Rachel, Hector, Sam, Sally, Sucky, Driver, Jupiter, Bob, Ellick, Pompy, Flander." The Baldwin County, Ga Slave Owners 1850 Baldwin County Census shows a Jesse DANIEL with 20 slaves. This may be Jesse Daniell AUSTIN DANIEL, adopted son of John and Martha Pearson Cook DANIEL. Baldwin County bordered Hancock County where John and Martha lived, and was where his "step?-great grandmother" Nancy Daniell BARROW lived and died. John W. (William?) DANIEL, (s/o John and Martha DANIEL I think), is also on this list, as are many other associated/related family names, BUTTS, RICE, MITCHELL, JORDAN, and others. Considering that Jesse inherited "the land lying on the Oconey that I lent to my son Levi DANIELL" This 1850 Jesse in Baldwin may well be Jesse Daniell Austin DANIEL. Jack V. Butler, (E-mail 12/02/02), provided this information to the List: National Genealogical Society Quarterly, Volume 58, Through Richmond County, Georgia, Importers of Slaves, Page 37 Daniel, Edmund, March 1820, 3 slaves Daniel, Jesse (Liberty) March 1818 8 slaves Daniel, John , May 1823 2 slaves Daniel, Jos., January 1818 3 slaves Daniel, Littleton (Washington), by John Daniel December 1819 5 slaves Daniel, Robert, March 1820 2 slaves Could this Jesse have been the Jesse in 4. above, I do not know. Liberty Co. may have been a little far south for this to be him. To reflect the correct relationship between this Sarah and Mary DANIEL, they were 1st cousins. "We also know that MAJ James ERWIN (1752-1815) of Midway Plantation, Allendale County, SC married Sarah DANIEL (1762-1815), d/o of William O'DANIEL, Jr. and Unknown. Her niece was Mary O'DANIEL who married Samuel TALBERT." This William O'DANIEL of Camden, SC, father of Sarah DANIEL who m. Major James ERWIN, was the brother of John O'DANIEL of Fairfax, VA, father of Mary DANIEL who m. Samuel TALBERT II. Mary O'DANIEL (1742-AFT 1798) Mary died after 16 Aug 1824, the date of Samuel TALBOT's will which was proven in May 1833. As to the WISE relationship to my O'DANIEL family: A direct relationship has not yet been established. Having said that, John O'DANIEL's son, Stephen DANIEL m. Ann "Nancy" Wise RATCLIFFE in Fairfax, VA. Nancy was the d/o Richard RATCLIFFE & Louisiana BOWLING. Louisiana's sister, Ann "Nancy" BOWLING, had m. Peter WISE. Remember that the 2nd wife of John O'DANIEL was not Ann BOWLING who was married to Peter Wise; his second wife was Ann "Nancy" McINTOSH, d/o John McINTOSH, and brother of Lochlin McINTOSH. Remember too that Robert Ratcliff DANIEL, b. abt 1800, was the s/o this Stephen and Nancy DANIEL. According to the information on a TALBOT website, William TINSLEY & Nancy TALBOT had four children between 1815 and 1821: Allison, James Daniel, Mary Ann, & John Nickolas. Nancy TALBOT died before 1824 when her father's will mentioned her as deceased. As I remember, there was a TINLEY researcher last year who addressed this proposal and was quite adamant that the TINLEYs you are speaking of were definitely not TINSLEYs, although I cannot put my fingers on her message(s) at the moment. Trusting that nothing was missed. Robert ----- Original Message ----- From: "John R.
