A lot of these Daniel folk, or their offspring, went to Barbour and Dale County, Alabama in the 1830s. There was a Stephen Daniel Sr and a Jr in Jackson County for the 1821 property census. I think that most of the early Daniel folk in Jackson County is connected at some point to my Daniel line which came to Jackson County by 1824 in the form of Appellus Daniel. Appellus/Appolis Daniel is out of the Liberty and Burke County bunch - which are almost certainly from the line of John Daniel of Northampton County and then back to the Isle of Wight Daniel line before that. Lucy Gray knows a lot about Josiah and his descendants. If she is not watching this list (and I would be surprised) you can reach her on the Daniel list.

Another individual, Lawson Daniels (age 46), was a member of Company B, 15th Confederate Cavalry (formerly the "Marianna Dragoons") and was home with a few other members of his unit on "special duty" at the time of the Battle of Marianna. He was captured and died at Elmira, New York, on April 14, 1865. Stephen Daniel, an officer in the state militia, commanded troops from Jackson County during the Second Seminole War. He was a key officer in a series of attacks on refugee Creeks in nearby Walton County and commanded a militia post at Campbellton. Glen Nobles lists Josiah Daniel, Thomas N. Daniel, William H. Daniel, Jr., and Benjamin F. Daniell on his list of the original landowners of Jackson County. He may be able to provide you more information. The 1850 census lists a Franklin Daniel, age 29, as an overseer on the Walter J. Robinson Plantation. Josiah Daniel is shown on the same census as the head of a household near Campbellton that included his wife, Sarah (age 36), and children: Elizabeth (age 13), Elijah (10), Sarah (7), William (5), Frances (3) and Edward (2).

One of my probably unsolvable genealogical problems is finding the identity of my 3-great grandmother who was the first wife of Levi Butler, who was in Gadsden County Florida by 1830 (already married to her) and bought land there in the mid-1830s, making him an original Gadsden County landowner. My thoughts usually flow towards her maybe being a sister of George Washington Kemp who was an adjacent Gadsden County landowner. James D. (another James Daniel?... if so that would seem to blow this whole idea out of the water), one of Levi Butler's sons by his second wife, Nancy, married George W. and Mourning Kemp's daughter Georgia Kemp and ended up in southern Leon County, at Woodville. It's not unusual for a child by a second wife to marry a relative of a first wife... But another possibility lies in the name Daniel. Levi Butler's daughter by his first wife, Eliza E. Butler, married my 2-great grandfather John Hair. Their son James Daniel Haire was my great grandfather. I have always felt that his middle name, Daniel, could have been his grandmother's surname. Whoever she was, census records show that she was born in Florida around 1811. Were any of the Daniels here that early... particularly a James Daniel?
