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
