Hello, Re: TUCKER, WYNNE, BENNETT, BELL, STOKES, PARHAM, COLEMAN, JORDAN, BAILEY/BALEY/BAYLEY, JENNINGS, EARLE, HOLBROOK, PATTISON, (CONYERS,) BENNETT, HAILE/HALE/HAYLES, SYMONDS/SYMONS, WILLIAMS # 1, HARRIS, WILLIAMS # 2, MORE/MOORE/MOREHEAD?, AUDLEY, PEMBERTON, SMITH, FRITH, STOKES, TILER, (PENNER,) BILLNGTON, WALKER, MOSEBY, (GREGORY,) (PARSON,) STITH, ALMOND, ADDIE, BRANCH/BRAUNCHE, JEFFERSON/JEAFFRESON, KELLY, PARTRIDGE, DONIPHAN/DONOVAN, etc. There are many various connections that I have already found between many of my lines back in 1600's - 1700's Virginia but I think that there are more and, perhaps, some of those might hold the keys for clearing up the mysteries that still exist for some of the following including my 4th great grandmother, Rachel TUCKER, and whom her parents were, etc.. I have found connections between the BELL, TUCKER, JORDAN, BAILEY, ANDERSON family groups that I didn't previously know about and wondering whether or not they might connect with my other family groups of JENNINGS, JORDAN, poss. BAILEY, WILLIAMS, HARRIS, EARLE, etc. and my MYRICK, HERRINGTON, PIERCE, JOYNER, HARRIS and other family groups that connect. However, it may not offer the exact connections to make the truth clear but here is some of what might help and while I am not going to mention all of them here......some of the possible connecting points are below. There are others of you that are looking for the same Rachel TUCKER who married Ripley COPELAND, born: abt. 1761, who lived in Sumter Co., SC. I have still not uncovered anything about Rachel except for that the only Rachel's, so far, that I have found have been descendants of (Captain) Robert TUCKER and Elizabeth PARHAM. (PARHAM's connect in other places to my family groups.) I also descend from Joseph TUCKER, brother of (Captain) Robert TUCKER, sons of Elizabeth COLEMAN and Robert TUCKER, through Joseph Tudor TUCKER and Lucretia WYNNE, (daughter of (Colonel) Robert WYNNE, (son of Thomas WYNNE and Agnes STITH, (mother: Jane MOSEBY (GREGORY) (PARSONS,) and Martha JEFFERSON, (daughter of Mary/Martha BRANCH, (daughter of Sarah ALMOND and Christopher BRANCH, II, (son of Mary ADDIE and Christopher BRANCH, I,) and Thomas (1) JEFFERSON, (son of Samuel JEFFERSON/JEAFFRESON,). >From Joseph Tudor TUCKER and Lucretia WYNNE I descend through their daughter, Martha TUCKER who married (Captain) Benjamin BELL who is the son of John BELL, Jr. and his wife, Hannah STOKES, (related somehow to her daughter-in-law, Phoebe STOKES, who married John BELL, III, and Phoebe's father, Sylvanius/Silvanius STOKES. Wondering if this connects to my other STOKES family in the info on WILLIAMS.) John BELL, Jr. was the son of John BELL, Sr., born: 1668 in Isle of Wight Co., VA, and his wife, Ann BENNETT, (father: Richard BENNETT, Jr, son of Richard BENNETT, Sr..) (Trying to find out if and how he is related to the John BENNETT whose Phillis BENNETT I descend from through her marriage to Samuel EARLE, II.) Also, I descend from Rachel JORDAN, born: abt. 1750, prob. in VA, maybe in Richmond Co., VA, (mother: is her mother a BAILEY/BALEY/BAYLEY??, father: ? JORDAN,) (there is a William JORDAN who is mentioned in the will of her husband's grandmother, Ann KELLY (JENNINGS,) who married John JENNINGS, Sr., (RS,) born: abt. 1748 in Richmond Co., VA, who was the son of Edward Salley JENNINGS, born: 1720 in Richmond Co., VA, and his wife who was possibly named Sarah/Saraiah MORE/MOORE, (any chance this could have been MOREHEAD?,) and Edward Salley JENNINGS was the son of mother: Ann KELLY, born: abt. 1696 in VA, died: 1734/1735 in Richmond Co., VA, (mother: Amy DONIPHAN, born: abt. 1662, (mother: Amy PARTRIDGE?/RIVETT?, (parents: ??, (there are PARTRIDGE's that married into the LAMKIN/LAMPKIN & COX & DEMOURVILLE/DEMOUVALL families that I descend from, are they connected?,) father: William JENNINGS, Jr., born: bet. 1695 - 1700 in VA, (mother: Mary WILLOUGHBY, born: abt. 1670, (parents: ??,) father: William JENNINGS, Sr., born: abt. 1668, (mother: Margaret PAYNE (JENNINGS) (EDRINGTON,) and the parents of Margaret PAYNE (JENNINGS) (EDRINGTON) were: (father: John PAYNE, born: abt. 1615 in England, immigrated to Old Rappahannock, VA, mother: possibly may be ?Margrett Jennings?

His wife was Mary Ellen BARNET(T) and she is not buried in the family plot in Everett, MA, so we think she probably died in Ireland before Daniel came to the US. Daniel's naturalization papers have NO dates on them and aren't completely filled out, but they are attested to by John DONOVAN and Timothy DONOVAN whom we believe to be relatives. I have found two addresses in Boston in the 1890 MA directories where there were both Timothy and John DONOVANs living at the same address at the same time. Brothers probably. These addresses are: 74 Ruggles, Boston and 286 Bunk

I am looking for parents of John Donovan and Honora Leyhane. I have a marriage certificate (Jan 1864) - LDS - that indicates John Donovan of Knockroe, Ireland has a father by the name of Denis and then I hit a brick wall. He married a woman by the name of Honora Leyhane of Kilcrohane, Ireland who's father is listed as Murty Leyhane and then I hit a brick wall on him as well.

Annie Agnes Born 24.5.1865. Died in Australia 6.9.1938. Daniel married Kate Hurley (baptised 1.1.1851) on 6.2.1883. Her parents were Patrick Hurley and Norry Driscoll. Sponsors: Patrick and Catherine Driscoll. They had 4 children: > > > > > >Twins: Timothy & Patrick Donovan who were born 4.7.1884 > > >Anne Donovan born 20.8.1885. > > >James Donovan born 2.4.1890. Daniel (with Timothy & Patrick) travelled to Australia on the 'Oruba' Ship from Plymouth to Melbourne and disembarked in Sydney, Australia in July, 1898. If anyone has any further information on any of the above, I would be very grateful. Yours sincerely Georgette Rolland

Hi! Hope there may be a connection here. I have been searching the family for four years and have learned more in the past two months than in all those four years. My husband's Grandmother was Honora O'Brien Jameson. I know about the Jamesons. It is the O'Briens I am looking for. Hang on. I will get to the Donovans! Nora's parents were Daniel O'Brien and Mary Barnett. About two months ago I sent for Daniel's death certificate, hoping that it MIGHT have the names of his parents on it. IT DID! They were John O'Brien and Margaret Donovan. Good news! We knew that the family was from County Cork and about a month ago, after I rejoined the County Cork list, I found out that Daniel O'Brien, Jr (Never married) was born in RossCarbery. Two weeks later a note came saying that Ellen (Nellie who married a Sheridan) O'Brien was also born in Ross Carbery to the same parents. Birthdays correct! Nora was born before all the births had to be registered, so I will have to do some searching in church records, but now I know what parrish they were from. Last night I was checking Daniel Sr's naturalization papers again and found to my amazement that they were witnessed by Timothy Donovan and John Donovan!! Didn't know they had other family that came to the US. All of this took place in Boston, Mass and the first person in the family who came to the US was Nora in 1883. Her father didn't come until the 1890s so I presume that his wife died in Ireland. When Daniel, Sr came home with a new wife in a few years later, the family wouldn't let them in the house!!! Funny. Anyway, with your names being similar and everyone in families naming kids after all the others in the family, I think you and my husband might be relatives. Especially since yours emigrated so late and were from Ross Carbery. I would like to find out if the ship Oruba stopped in Boston or New York. Some of the family landed in NY and some in Boston. Maybe there were other family members on this ship. Anxious to hear from you. Barbara Prior Jameson marksnana@juno.com in Colorado USA List manager: PRIOR, PRYOR, JAMESON & MOLSBERRY
