This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Shaw Bates Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/Ic.2ADI/1721 Message Board Post: Looking for information for Fannie Shaw, born 1871, married William H. Bates. They lived in Clarke Co. GA when both died. Need any information as to her parents or siblings would be greatly appreciated.
Maryellen, I have two lines that fit into this equation. There is the Francis ALEXANDER (1693-1760) whose daughter, Jane. married Reynolds RAMSEY (also of Somerset, later Frederick County, MD) and their daughter, Jane RAMSEY (ABT 1765-1851) married Rev. Thomas Means RENEAU RS-VA (1760-1840) whose son, Louis O. RENEAU, Esq. (1784-1863) married a Jane NORRIS and their son, Rev. Russell RENEAU (1807-1865) married Elizabeth STOCKTON (1810-1888) and their daughter, Mary Jane RENEAU (1830-1912) married Robert W. DANIEL, Esq. (1809-1865) of Bethany, Jefferson County, GA in 1852. Robert and Mary Jane's daughter, Alice E. DANIEL (1854-1924) married John C. RICHTER, Sr. (1848-1907) of Madison, GA in 1872 - my paternal grandparents. Then, we have the other line. Robert W. DANIEL was the son of Robert C. DANIEL (ABT 1765-AFT 1830) and Penelope LANE (1773-1846) of Greene County, NC, later, Burke County, GA. I do not know who RCD's parents were. However, I do know who Penelope's parents were, they were Capt. Isham, Isam, Isom LANE (ABT 1730-1801) of Edgecombe, later Greene County, NC. I believe he was related to the Walter LANE, Sr. and Sarah WILSON family of Somerset, later Worchester County, MD. I think that Capt. LANE was married to Lucretia GRAY (ABT 1735-AFT 1773), d/o John GRAY (1690-1756) and Ann BRYAN(T) of Bertie County, NC and I think his family rolls back to MD, probably Somerset but maybe Accomack County, VA, since all of the families in this area were rather close. Your information seems to match up with what I am seeing but do not overlook that western migration through TN and then down into GA, either. All of these families were top level folks which means a lot of folks have linked to them when they were not related to them, at all. For an example, the brother of Rev. Thomas Means RENEAU, also a preacher, Rev. Francis RENEAU RS-VA married Lydia SEVIER, d/o Gen. John SEVIER, first governor of TN and general during the RW. There are also a lot of links that roll down from PA and MD into the Shenandoah Valley and Staunton, VA areas including Augusta County, VA, and these same links roll down into GA, later. The PONDERS, BENNETTS and PATTERSONS are perfect examples of this and the PONDER family of Camden District, York County, SC, later Morgan County, GA, followed this route. There were also more than a handful of Tories in all of this too, including a good portion of the PONDER family. Their land in SC was confiscated by the folks in SC although some supposedly served the Rebel Cause in GA, later. A lot of these folks were Quakers, too, and this may be why some of them became Tories and we know from history a lot of Quakers later became Methodist. The way these folks got to SC was down the Green Mountain Highway from PA through the Shenandoah Valley into the Rowan County, NC area, through present day Charlotte, NC to York County, PA. Some of these folks stopped off in PE County, VA, probably also migrating over into neighboring Granville and Rowan County, NC and then on to SC. Local Greene County, GA families that seem to match this profile are the CUNNINGHAMS, DANIELS, CARLTONS and COFFEE families and they also say the CALDWELLS also were a part of this migration. I cannot say my DANIEL bunch was Tories because they married into too many families that were not but that does not mean they, like the PONDERS, did not have some in their family that were Tories because many of these upper level families tended to play all ends against the middle -- Tory early and rebel, later, after the tied had definitely turned in favor of the rebels. <grin> I think a lot of my maternal lines, especially the TOMLINSONS, did the same thing. <grin> John R.

Hi, I have CALDWELLS tied to my bunch in Jefferson County, GA and Augustus is a name that floats around my DANIEL bunch, there. Nancy Ann CALDWELL (1822-AFT 1864) married a James S. SPEIR (ABt 1820-1864), clerk and MG in JC. Nancy was the d/o Simon CALDWELL and Nancy SPIVEY of Jefferson County and he was a son of Spencer CALDWELL (ABt 1741-ABT 1802) and Martha YOUNG of Worchester County, MD, later Greene County, NC. Spencer was the son of Robert CALDWELL of Somerset County, MD and Winifred WATTS of Baltimore County, MD who as a daughter of John WATTS (d. ABT 1740) of Westmorland County, VA, later, Somerset County, MD. There seems to be some Southside, VA families that moved north into MD and then came back to NC in a later time frame, and GA, even later. This may be one of these. BTW, my GGF, Robert W. DANIEL, Esq. (1809-1865) of Bethany, Jefferson County, GA cut and witnessed the 1864 will of James S. SPIER and most indications are they were the best of friends. Robert's mother was a Penelope LANE (1773-1846), d/o Capt. Isham LANE (ABt 1730-1801) of Greene County, NC and I think his LANES my have gone this same route -- Southside to Somerset and then back to eastern NC - Bertie and Edgecombe and then Greene and Wayne County, NC. I think Capt. Isham LANE was married to a Lucretia "Lucy" GRAY, d/o John GRAY and Penelope BRYAN(T) of Rosefield, Windsor Co., NC. John R.

Hey John, It's only taken me 20 years to nail down a pattern of VA to MD to NC to SC to GA for my family...glad to see more climb aboard. Perhaps it will start getting easier to convince people. Initially, we have folks leaving VA for their religious intolerance and hitting MD. They stay there several generations. One group leaves in the 1760's or so, and one waits till the early 1780's. The earlier group goes to NC and gets involved in Regulator activity. Governor Tryon and his property confiscation of the early 1770's led these folks to "get out of Dodge" so they became Rev Soldiers in SC. When GA started handing out land to soldiers of any state, they were off. This seems to be where they pick up with many old MD neighbors...right in Greene Co GA in the mid 1780's.

Fir what it is worth. We are picking up quite a few indications that seem to indicate a lot of the folks that ended up in GA had earlier Maryland connections, especially to families in the Somerset and Frederick County, MD areas. These connection may well have included families in adjacent PA counties and even Fairfax, Accomack and Stafford County, VA areas, as well. It seems there were two migration paths to GA, one through western VA and eastern TN and the other down through VA, eastern NC and then SC. Later, these families, once again, begin to re-establish their family links from their original locations in MD. John R.

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Caldwell, Jernigan, Jordan, Taylor, Rhodes Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/Ic.2ADI/708.913.1 Message Board Post: Hi Judith. I do have some additional information since that last post. Part of the information below is the same as in my previous message but with some new additions. Thanks to the generosity of Mr. Lamar Moore, we were able to prove that the father of Augustus D. Caldwell was Samuel Caldwell. I will post information on John Littleton Caldwell soon. Need to do some organizing. 1. Samuel Caldwell, born about 1785 in Maryland(?), d. December 1836 in Greene Co., GA. Information I found on the internet shows his wife as Sarah Miles. Samuel & Sarah Caldwell moved to Greene Co., GA, apparently with all of their 10 children, sometime in the early 1800s. They were parents of Littleton D. Caldwell, No. 2 below. 2. Littleton D. Caldwell, son of Samuel & Sarah (Miles?) Caldwell, born about 1804, died about 1833 in Greene Co., GA. He was married Sept. 4, 1825 in Greene Co. to Cynthia McHargue. (I’ve not found her parents yet.) After Littleton’s death, Cynthia (McHargue) Caldwell remarried to Norwood H. Finley/Findley, Jan. 1, 1835 in Greene Co. Littleton & Cynthia only had three children before his death, as follows: (1) Augustus Greene Caldwell, son of Littleton D. and Cynthia (McHargue) Caldwell, was born Nov. 18, 1826, Greene Co., d. Feb. 24, 1899 in Greene Co. He was married in Greene Co., Aug. 9, 1848 to Frances Jernigan, b. Aug. 16, 1836 in GA, d. June 16, 1917, Greene Co. I believe her parents were John E. Jernigan and Margaret Rankin, married Dec. 9, 1830, Greene Co. but haven’t found absolute proof. In the 1850 census we find Augustus G. Caldwell & wife Frances living in the household of Margaret Jernigan. Augustus and his wife are buried in Siloam Cemetery, Greene Co. (2) Martha Ann Caldwell, dau. of Littleton D. and Cynthia (McHargue) Caldwell, was born about 1830 (1850 census shows her as 20 years old). She was married twice – (1) Parker C. Miller, Sept. 13, 1843, Greene Co. and (2) Edmund R. Jordan, Dec. 30,. 1847 in Taliaferro Co. Edmund R. & Martha (Caldwell) Jordan were parents of Corilla V. Jordan who married Elizabeth Savannah Taylor (sister of my grandfather, William Chesley Taylor) (3) Adaline D. Caldwell, dau. of Littleton D. and Cynthia (McHargue) Caldwell, was born ca. 1832, Greene Co. In the 1850 census she was living with her sister and brother-in-law, Martha & Edmund R. Jordan, listed as age 18. She married (1) Absolom Loyd Taylor Oct. 19, 1852 in Taliaferro Co. Loyd Taylor was son of Albert & Rutha (Rhodes) Taylor. (Albert Taylor was brother of my gr. grandfather, Robert S. Taylor.) Loyd Taylor died soon after their marriage and Adaline married (2) John Rhodes son of William & Emily (Evans) Rhodes. I will post again soon with information on some of the children of Augustua G. Caldwell. Hope the above helps some. Rhoda SOURCES: Research of Mr. Lamar Moore.

I am excited to see your post, as my father told me of his childhood memory of going to visit "Uncle Cull", whose last name he said was Caldwell. My father was John Russell King, b. 1915, d. 2000; son of Isaac Daniel King and Katie Mapp of Greene County. I believe the relationship with Uncle Cull was through Katie. As she died when my dad was only around 8 and he was sent for a time to Atlanta to live with his older brother and then joined the Marines at an early age and lived the rest of his life far from Georgia, he didn't have much of the usual knowledge of extended family. I was able to find out more than he ever had known, and did get to share with him some names and interesting knowledge of his ancestors just a few weeks before he died. I don't have the rest of the details right near me as I write this, but will get back to them if anyone has questions. Meanwhile, I would enjoy hearing any additional information about Uncle Cull. It seems that you and I must be related! Tricia King Homer, Alaska ----- Original Message ----- From: judy921@iwvisp.com Date: Friday, May 14, 2004 8:52 pm Subject: [Greene] Re: Littleton D.

I look forward to hearing from you if you are able to develop more information about your Moores. I have been in touch with a gentleman who I believe is a descendant of Joseph Moore, Jr. (the son of the Joseph Moore, Sr. who I have listed here), and he has done a great deal of work on his Moore family. I have also found descendants of Elizabeth Moore Stringfellow. But I have not found descendants of the other son of Joseph Moore, Sr. -- William Moore; or of Mary (Polly) Moore Stringfellow; or of Margaret Moore. [My husband is a descendant of Ellender (Nelly) Moore McNeely, so we also have found a number of her descendants.]

Shirley, From a letter that was forwarded to me today by someone who contacted Ancestry.com concerning this, my understanding is that the Family Trees in all locations will remain free to view as they are now. The new *fee* service they are advertising is for a search engine that will search all available information on their servers - family trees, census and other documents and put it together for you in one place to reference. It even sounded as if it will "sort" information that does not "appear" relevant - in other words if you are searching for John Smith b. ca 1780 in NC and d. 1850 in Georgia - the search will be narrowed down to exclude John Smith b. ca 1820 in NC and d. 1889 in South Carolina. Further, the search results would not only include the John Smith fitting this criteria in Family Trees submitted but also in Census, Marriage, Birth records, etc... I would suggest that if you have concerns about this to write them and ask exactly what they intend to do. I imagine they are hearing from quite a few people and it may be that they end up posting a clearer explanation of this service on the website. Hope this helps!

This may be of interest to some of you! Linda B. Barton ------- Now online at Oglethorpe County GAGenWeb: The 1807 Georgia Land Lottery - list of eligible drawers in Oglethorpe County. Over 1,900 Oglethorpe County residents registered for the 1807 lottery, including many widows, minor orphans & young adults who aren't identified on the 1800 census. http://www.rootsweb.com/~gaogleth/1807lotto/1807.htm
Dear Rhoda Many thanks for the abstract. I need to see if I can look at the original at some point because Guardian could easily be a mistake and it would be Garden. There is a marriage bond in Charlotte County Virginia for Benjamin Baldwin of Prince Edward and Sarah Garden daughter of James Garden in 1785. So it would fit. Many thanks Mary Paul
Hi Mary. I did find that power of attorney you mentioned. So far I haven't tied your Benjamin into the other Baldwin family but that's not to say he's not related. Here's that power of attorney as abstracted by Rev. Silas Emmett Lucas, Jr. in his book "Some Georgia County Records, Vol. 2. This seems to show that Sarah, wife of Benjamin Baldwin, was indeed daughter of James Guardian. (Greene Co., GA Deed Bk. 1, pp. 65-66) BENJN. BALDWIN & SARAH BALDWIN to Nat. Barksdale of Halifax Co., Va., power of attorney to transact business in that county, particularly to make a conveyance of a certain tract of land which was the property of JAMES GUARDIAN DECD and willed by him TO SARAH HIS DAUGHTER as appears on the records of Charlotte Court, the rights and titles of which land being invested in us. Signed: Benjn. Baldwin, Sarah Baldwin. Wit: Richard Mitchell, Ezek. E. Parks. Rec. 26 April 1792. I'll let you know if I find anything else. Sincerely, Rhoda
I wonder if you have any information on these Greene county Baldwins that would tie to Benjamin Baldwin in Oglethorpe County in the late 1700s and early 1800s. He died in Oglethopre County in 1815 and was about 59 years old There is a Greene County power of attorney, I understand, that ties to Prince Edward county. It gives Nat'l Barksdale of Halifax County Virginia power of attorney for Sarah and Benjamin Baldwin. Sarah could be Sarah Garden the daughter of James Garden who married a Wimbish. Benjamin later married Catherine Watson in Greene County after Sarah died in 1801. Best regards Mary Paul Smith Jespersen Bogense, Denmark
To Doc Jones. There is a will for a Henry Baldwin in Greene Co. that mentions a daughter "Rebeker." I can't determine if this is your Rebecca but certainly a possibility. From Greene County, Georgia Wills 1786-1877, by Fred Reid Turner: (Greene Co. Will Book F, p. 77) State of Georgia, Greene County. 30 April 1823, will of Henry Baldwin, deceased. I give to my beloved wife, Elizabeth Baldwin, negroes a woman named Jude, Nancy, Sebern, a girl child named Nervy, and land whereon I live, plus household and kitchen furniture, livestock, during her lifetime or widowhood. Should she marry, property held by her shall return to my estate to be equally divided between surviving children: daughter Lucy Read; daughter Amealey Wade, son Joseph Hart; daughter Susan Peek; DAUGHTER REBEKER; and Harriet. My negroes to be hired out until my son Joseph Baldwin becomes of age and then all of them sold and proceeds equally divided. Appoint wife Elizabeth Baldwin, along with Robert Pennix (?) executors. Wit: Daingerfield Bowden, David Crawford. Recorded 24 October 1825. Ebenezer Torrence Clerk. I'm thinking this Henry Baldwin is related somehow to Samuel and Robert Baldwin who were both born in Prince Edward Co., VA, basically because of Robert Pennix being appointed as one of the execs. and a daughter marrying a Peek. The Peek and Penick families were involved with the Baldwins back in Pr. Edward Co., VA. I do have some further Baldwin info. somewhere in my mess of files. I'll try to find it and see if there is anything there to help. Hope this will at least give you a clue or two. Sincerely, Rhoda Taylor Fone
