Mary, Thanks for checking for Josiah and Adonijah Gordon for me. I am not surprised there wasn't any mention of them in the book.....they seem to be very illusive.

The book Gordons in Virginia does not have Josiah or Adonijah in the index. The only Clarence listed is Clarence Benton Gordon who was born 8 May 1889, son of Edward Churchill Gordon & Eliza Cash, of Chariton Co, MO.

My great great grandfather, George Alexander Gordon, was in Scott Co., MS in 1850. He was in Texas by 1857. He was born somewhere in Georgia in 1823 and may have lived in either Tennessee or Alabama before 1850. We do not know his parents.

Jeff Fox, in your reply to inquiry regarding 1754 Gordons in PA, you mentioned your line was from GA and MS. I am interested in the MS connection. I have Gordons in Neshoba and Winston Co., MS, my g-grandfather was William Francis Gordon b. abt 1850 in SC. He married his 2nd wife in MS abt 1889. Just wondering if you have any Gordon's in that portion of MS.

What?? I s everyone on this list from south of the Mason-Dixon Line. My Gordon line are all "Real Yankees." My progenitor is John Gordon who left a widow and two sons in York, Maine in 1744. One, Nathaniel was of age at that time. His brother, Robert was my ancestor. John fits in the time frame to be a grandson of Alexancer Gordon, the progenitor of most New England Gordons, Alexander did have a grandson named John; but I have not yet been able to make a connection.

Don't give up on PA. I searched PA for who was supposed to be there, it turns out he was in Delaware for a time. Those people never stayed put. Good luck Karen
I haven't looked into PA at all. Ours were all in VA, MD, later GA, then MS and LA. We are all over the South. Good luck.

Jeff Fox, have you found a George Gordon ca 1754 from PA? I'm stuck there. Glad to hear your're further back. Karen Patterson
I am new to the list. I joined because my sister and I have started on the genealogy quest and have been very fortunate except as to who really was our original ancester in this country. Here it is for anyone who might have some info: Adrian Gordan, or Gordin, or Gorden, now Gordy, was "transported from VA to Maryland in 1675 by William Brereton, (brewerton, and others) to Somerset Co. MD. Along with a Nicholas Todvane, and two otheres. Adrian is spelled many different ways also, Adain, Andrain, and had a alias, Bryan Gordin. We later hear of him in the will of his father-in-law, Michael Disharoon(Dusharoon) and also in the will of a second father-in-law, Robert Crouch. We know he existed, but we are not really sure if he is the "One". We have land purchase records with his name but never a mention of any children with either wife, there also may have been another wife inbetween the first too, only maybe. Two supposed sons, Peter and Moses Gordie have land purchases in 1733 which would put them as born about when the records say, 1710-1714. Not sure if Rose Crouch was the wife and mother, we are almost sure it was not the Disharoon since she died in early 1700's. We are thinking that Gordy or Gordie was a nickname for Gordon and because of the lack of education, it was never really spelled correctly. Has anyone in their search of the 1600's and early 1700's come across this name or anything close that might help. We have lots of "rumors" going around but I fear that what we find on the internet is not documented. Thanks for anything you might have to offer, Is Adrian a Scottish name? or some spelling close to that? Barbara and Melinda Gordy (Fox & Corporon)

Excuse me, My 2nd ggrandmother's sister was married in Frederick County, Maryland, I know that there was such a county, as I read the census. My information came from some other descendants; so, guess, we are wrong about Fredericksburg.

My 2nd ggrandfather John was Catholic but my ggrandmother, his daughter was Methodist. I know that her sister was married in the Methodist Church in Frederickburg, Maryland, abt 1853. Hope that your distant cousin knows of this family, and I might be lucky to find out who John A. Gordon's parents and siblings were. Thanks very much.
