    1. [FIELDS-L] Indian Fields FYI
    2. Patience Northern
    3. I found the Indian Blood I and II today in the Franklin, In. Gen. Soc. library. They list Field, Fields as a Shawnee\Cherokee name. I have tried to paraphrase the following as well as I can: In 1774 it says that Ezekial Field or Fields was captured by Shawnees near the Kanawha River. Thwaites and Kellogg differ from Roy Appleman in that they believe the name to be Ephraim Field. Roy Appleman who studied Joseph and Reuben Field of the Lewis and Clark Expedition tells of John Field's will which was made before before joining Andrew Lewis against the Shawnee towns. The will mentions Ezekiel Field, "unhappily missing, dead or alive not known." Ezekiel was from Culpepper Co., Va. so Co. John Field and Ann Rogers Clark. Lewis Field was captured in May, 1780 by the Miami in what is now Indiana near Fourteen Mile Creek. He was with Capt. Ben Roberts. He was adopted by Little Turtle thus saving him from certain death. Two of Col. John Fields nephews, Reuben and Joseph Field, joined the Lewis and Clark expedition. "Listed on the 1835 Cherokee Census of Tennessee were the members of the household of Ezekiel Fields, consisting of six quarter bloods and an intermarried white; the household of Jack Fields, consisting of five quarter bloods and an intermarried white; the household of Moses Fields, consisting of one halfblooded, and intermarried white, and four quarter bloods and one intermarried white. "Five mixed Negroes" also lived in the household of George Fields. The household of Willis Fields, of Lookout Valley, included one intermarried white and four quarter bloods. These people all lived in what was then Hamilton Co, Tennessee" On the Tennessee River was G. Fields with nine quarter bloods, six could read English Richard Fields, 1835 Cherokee Census, lived in Blount Co, Al. with 5 half-breeds at Turkytown, Al. Rider fields - eight quarter bloods lived in Jackson Co., Al. Arch Fields - eight half-breeds on Covewhulla Creek in Ga. seven could read English. The great, great-grandson of George W. Fields, Ed Hodges (Buffalo) is one of the current leaders of the Inter-tribal Council in Ohio. His lineage goes back to Ludoric Grant, a Scottish trader in Charlestown, S.C. in 1716. Ludoric Grant married Mary, a Cherokee woman of the Long Hair Clan. William Emory married their daughter, Mary. Descendents include Captain Will who captured Daniel Boone, Diana Rogers (Sam Houston's wife) Chief Thomas Buffington, and the Will Rogers. Richard Fields married their daughter, Anna or Susanna, and their son, Richard Fields married Jennie Buffington of the Cherokee family. Richard Field's son, Ezekiel Fields, married Mary Ann Sexton, and their son, George Washington Fields, married Sarah McGhee, dau of Albert McGhee and his Cherokee wife,, Akey Sharp. Thomas Jefferson Fields who married Nellie Todd was the so George W. and Sarah Fields. Lloyd Fields, b 1899 so Thomas and Nellie m Sarah Silversmith, Cherokee. Ed Hodges (Buffalo) also descends from this line through Elmer Fields, son of Lloyd and Sarah Silversmith Fields. Patience

    1. [FIELDS-L] Genetic info
    2. Mary K Ward
    3. Re: FIELDS-D Digest V99 #132 Dear Martha Smith <[email protected]>, Since millions of Americans are ANGLO-EUROPEAN descendants, esp. Irish & English (which prob. includes many FIELDS) -it is helpful to be aware of recent medical research into the disease [CADASIL - or- M.I.D.- multi infarct dementia] which some individuals in this group may have inherited genetically. It is also reasurring to learn that genetic testing for CADASIL is now diagnostically feasible & reliable. The devastating effects of degenerative brain diseases seem to affect all of us -- as our population includes an increasingly greater percentage of "elderly people". Your references are valuable to have on file! Thanks for taking the risk to share!

    1. [FIELDS-L] RE: Family Traits
    2. seeme
    3. Hello Cousins, Hope all of you consider the following to be as important as our other genealogy research. Much of my family genealogy research has been aimed at finding out more about those wonderful FIELDS folks. So, I apologize for the length of this post, but hope the following info. & web site addresses will lead some of you to follow up and get some Genetic testing done. I understand that the tests for CADASIL ( as M.I.D. is now called) are diagnostically feasible & reliable. --------------- Recently I've become VERY frustrated trying to locate members of my FIELDS family in Kentucky & S.C. It seems that there are HUGE gaps in the associations between family names from one generation to the next. I shared this with another researcher and this is what I found out ::: The NIH states that much new information has come forth in the last 3 to 4 years regarding a certain destructive Genetic Disorder by the medical acronym CADASIL (or multi infarct dementia). It seems to travel in several ANGLO-EUROPEAN family lines, esp. Irish & English. It's thought that the FIELDS line might be affected by this gene disorder also, leadng to cases of early death (before 60) of men and women who have inherited the chromosomal disorder. As many as FOUR generations in a single family (multiple families have been tested both in Europe & USA) have been tested for it and found to be either positive or asymptomatic carriers of the diseased gene on CHROMOSOME # 19, NOTCH-3. It is a disorder related to Alzheimer's disease in its symptoms & intensity, but can take as much as 10 years to slowly wipe out a person's memory & other mental & physical abilities. CVA (cerebro vascular accident) is a common feature of this disorder as well as others including --- eventual blockage of the small arteries to the underside of the brain, small strokes & gradual onset of dementia. Also, bouts of depression and some other psychological disorders proceed as a result of deterioration of cerebral tissue in the brain. This was enough info. for me to become really concerned, esp. since my own father & his mother died with a similar type (no body knows for sure as it was a long time ago for her. He died in 1992 after a prolonged illness that doctors - for lack of a better term, i guess - named senility of old age). <HA> It was probably CADASIL. So, here are the address & I hope some or many of you become as interested as I am in getting Genetic Counseling after reading about the ongoing Genetic Research for determining treatment after diagnosis for CADACIL. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/htbin-post/Omim/dispmim?125310 www.pitt.edu/~edugene/resource/#disease - this is a LARGE index One more thing might be in order first (please forgive the additions).--- I found much of the literature on these sites to be pretty technical in nature. However, if you have a family doc (doesn't everyone?), he or she would probably be glad to interpret it for you if you'll make print outs of the material as you find it on the Internet sites. If you translate a genuine concern for yourself & your family's health, your family doc will probably be most eager to help. The literature is VERY convincing. I'm speaking to a research lab at this time, hoping they'll take an interest in my concerns, but couldn't have gotten them to pay too much attention to me without my family doc 's help. Many Kind Regards, Martha Smith

Also, bouts of depression and some other psychological disorders proceed as a result of deterioration of cerebral tissue in the brain. This was enough info. for me to become really concerned, esp. since my own father & his mother died with a similar type (no body knows for sure as it was a long time ago for her. He died in 1992 after a prolonged illness that doctors - for lack of a better term, i guess - named senility of old age). <HA> It was probably CADASIL. So, here are the address & I hope some or many of you become as interested as I am in getting Genetic Counseling after reading about the ongoing Genetic Research for determining treatment after diagnosis for CADACIL. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/htbin-post/Omim/dispmim?125310 www.pitt.edu/~edugene/resource/#disease - this is a LARGE index One more thing might be in order first (please forgive the additions).--- I found much of the literature on these sites to be pretty technical in nature. However, if you have a family doc (doesn't everyone?), he or she would probably be glad to interpret it for you if you'll make print outs of the material as you find it on the Internet sites. If you translate a genuine concern for yourself & your family's health, your family doc will probably be most eager to help. The literature is VERY convincing. I'm speaking to a research lab at this time, hoping they'll take an interest in my concerns, but couldn't have gotten them to pay too much attention to me without my family doc 's help. Many Kind Regards, Martha Smith ------=_NextPart_001_0109_01BED1DB.2EE42820-- ------=_NextPart_000_0106_01BED1DB.2EE42820--

    3. Hi Betty, Probably not me you're looking for, but my Field came from NH, VT, Tioga Co., PA through Madison Co., IL then on to Cowiche, Yalima,WA. Nelson Field left Tioga Co., PA in 1840's and took his wife, Martha McEwen and son George Washington Field to Madison Co., IL. He apparently died around 1848 and Martha married John A. Keown in Madison Co., IL. About the same time Nelson died, he had another son, Albert Field. George W. Field married Susan Narcissus Greening in Madison Co, IL and they later moved to Cowiche. Albert is found in later Madison Co., IL census still living with John and Martha Keown as a farm hand. I have two web sites http://www.familytreemaker.com/users/d/a/v/Jack-D-Davis/ http://www.pond.net/~hmds/play/index.htm There is also an article about the supposedly reliability of F. C. Pierces book on the Field families on the supplement page. Jack D.

Rolff 1. The naming of Mary's children works very well with this Allen theory: a. JOHN FIELDS: Recently found information indicates a good possibility that the father of Nathaniel Fields was a John Fields, consistant with the tradition of naming the first child after the father's father. b. ANSEL FIELDS: c. AGATHA FIELDS: d. WILLIAM FIELDS: Named after Mary's father, William Allen. e. OBEDIAH FIELDS: (This name has replaced the Elijah Fields on the original list of children, because Bill has shown many reasons that Nathaniel and Mary had a son Obediah, but there has been no record found of a son Elijah after Mary's Land Patent. Because of these things, and the fact that the name of Elijah Joyce appearred on the Land Patent, it is apparent that Ralph Gorrell made the mistake of listing child Obediah as Elijah) f. SUSANNA FIELDS: Named after Mary's sister, Susanna Allen. g. ROBERT NELSON PLEASANTS FIELDS: In Albemarle Co., Va., where the William Allen family lived, there was a Robert Fields living, who seems to be of the same generation as Nathaniel Fields. It's likely that Nathaniel was in Albemarle Co. around 1751 to meet and marry Mary Allen. In 1751, when William Allen wrote his will, his daughter Mary was still single. Mary was 13 years old at that time, and would have married soon after that to have been having first child John born in 1752. No record of Nathaniel Fields has been found in Albemarle Co., but I'm contending that this Robert Fields found there was a brother of Nathaniel, and that Nathaniel's son Robert N.P. Fields was named after him and the Nelson and Pleasants families that also appear in the records of Albemarle Co. A daughter of the Albemarle Co. Robert Fields married a NELSON Moss. h. ALLEN FIELDS: What better circumstantial evidence could there be than to have a child named for the family that Mary came from? 2. The fact that in Albemarle Co., Va. there is this William and Mary Hunt Allen family available, and that that family did have a daughter named Mary, born in 1738, who in 1751 was single in a county that did have a Fields family in residence, and that although this William Allen family has been heavily researched, nobody has yet found any other husband for the daughter Mary. 3. Other research has shown that in Stokes Co., North Carolina there were families of Lansford Fields, Davis Fields, and Stephan Fields, and that indications are very strong that these guys were all brothers of Nathaniel Fields. In Albemarle Co., Va. there is a 1746 Court Order that Stephan and David Fields be bound out. The name Davis Fields has often been misread as David Fields. This record is a great indication that the family of Nathaniel Fields was in Albemarle Co., Va. around the time Nathaniel and Mary Allen would marry. 4. The fact that Mary Allen Fields in Rockingham Co., N.C. was in VERY close association during her widowhood with other children of William and Mary Hunt Allen, as follows: a. Elijah Joyce lived on land in Rockingham Co., N.C. that adjoined the land of Mary Allen Fields, and his name appears on several Fields records. The wife of Elijah Joyce was Elizabeth ALLEN, a neice of Mary Allen Fields through her brother Valentine. b. Valentine Allen, a son of William and Mary Hunt Allen, lived on land in Rockingham Co., N.C. that adjoined Turbefield Barnes, whose wife was Agatha Fields, daughter of Mary Allen Fields, and there were several other Valentine Allen to Fields associations. c. William Hunt Allen "of Buckingham Co., Va.", another son of William and Mary Hunt Allen, sold his land in Rockingham Co., N.C. to the Irion family "of Bedford Co., Va.", a family that was in various ways associated with our Fields family in Rockingham Co. d. Mary Allen Fields' son, John Fields, was in many ways very closely associated with the Nathaniel Scales family, and several children of the abovementioned Valentine Allen married children of this Nathaniel Scales. e. Judith Allen, sister of Mary Allen Fields, married Hutchins Burton. Many associations of our Fields family have been found with Hutchins Burton, including the fact that a 2nd Lt. Hutchins Burton was in the same 6th Virginia Regiment in which Nathaniel Fields served and they both died at about the same time in 1777 while serving. It appears that this particular Hutchins Burton was a nephew of Mary Allen Fields. Also, in Rockingham Co., N.C. there's a 1792 deed that includes a Hutchins Burton and several people familiar to Mary Allen Fields. Also, Obediah Fields, son of Mary Allen Fields, married a Catharine BURTON. They named a son Joseph BURTON Fields, and this Joseph had sons John H.B. Fields and Thomas H.B. Fields. Very possibly these "H.B.s" were "Hutchins Burtons". f. Mary Allen Fields' brother, Samuel Allen, was certainly familiar with the Fields family. He married Martha Archer, grandaughter of Peter Field. They named children Patty FIELD Allen and FIELD Allen, and a daughter married Peter FIELD Jefferson, a grandson of Peter Field. There is some evidence that Nathaniel Fields was related in some way to Peter Field. 5. A will of Mary Hunt Allen, widow of William Allen of Albemarle Co., Va., would likely name a daughter, Mary Fields, but this will has not been found yet. She had been married to Robert Minge before marrying William Allen. In 1753 Mary Hunt Minge Allen married in Lunenburg Co., Va. to FIELD Jefferson, an uncle of the president. He died in 1765, and left a will in Mecklenburg Co., Va., in which he left to his wife Mary a gold ring, because of a prenuptual agreement. This will was written in 1762, but per bible record Mary died in 1763. Any will at this time would be for Mary Hunt Minge Allen Jefferson, and would likely be recorded in Lunenburg Co., Buckingham Co., or Cumberland Co., but none has yet been found. A Rockingham Co., N.C. Court record of 1787 states that William Hunt Allen of Buckingham Co., Va. gave a female slave named Charlotte to Valentine Allen Jr. after the death of Mary Anglin. This William Hunt Allen is the brother of Mary Allen Fields, as is Valentine Allen Sr. The Mary Anglin is unknown at this time, but this record seems to be estate connected, and there is some possibility that Mary Anglin was Mary Hunt Minge Allen Jefferson Anglin. For this to be true the bible record stating she died in 1763 would have to be wrong, possibly 1783 being read as 1763. There are some reasons to believe this Anglin connection to be possible: a. Adrian ANGLIN witnessed the 1751 will of William Allen of Albemarle Co., Va. b. Adrian ANGLIN witnessed the 1752 deed of Valentine Allen, son of William and Mary Allen. c. Adrian ANGLIN lived in Buckingham Co., Va. on land that adjoined William Hunt Allen, son of William and Mary Allen. d. Adrian ANGLIN had a son, Phillip Anglin, born 1742, who later lived in Rockingham Co., N.C. and later sold his land there to Peter FIELD Trent. e. James ANGLIN in Kentucky witnessed a deed of William Strong, a grandnephew of Nathaniel Fields. Any possible will of a Mary Hunt Minge Allen Jefferson Anglin would most likely be recorded in Buckingham Co., Va. Very few records of that county have survived. I had considered the possibility that Mary Anglin of the 1787 record was Mary Allen Fields in a second marriage, but Bill gave much evidence that Mary Allen Fields was known by that name long after the year 1787. At this time Mary Anglin remains a mystery. 6. A 1744 Cunberland Co., Va. will of William Mayo was witnessed by WILLIAM ALLEN, MARY ALLEN, and HUTCHINS BURTON. These are most likely our William and Mary Allen and their son-in-law, Hutchens Burton. Two 1733 Henrico Co., Va. deeds show that this Mayo family lived on land adjoining THOMAS FIELD. I believe that these three records show us that our Fields and Allen families were acquainted by way of this William Mayo family. The land in Rockingham Co. N.C. on which Mary Allen Fields lived, was by the Mayo River and Mountain, both named for this William Mayo, surveyor and cartographer. 7. This above THOMAS FIELD of Henrico Co., Va. had a son-in-law, Charles SCRUGGS, and WILLIAM and MARY ALLEN had a son-in-law, James SCRUGGS. --part1_c012fbab.24c31c5c_boundary--
