Hi: I am typing two entries below from a Bond family book. If you also have Bond ancestors - this is a must read. I believe it is on film at Salt Lake. But since it was published in 1913 - I think there are some discrepancies. I have Joseph HInds, brother of Abigail Hinds married to Joseph Bond as being married to a Hannah Grider - not a Betsy (Elizabeth). Which one of us is all fouled up? If I read this correctly this author has: 1. Joseph Hinds whose wife was a Ludlow. His children: 2. Abigail Hinds married to Joseph Bond in 1797 2. Joseph "Miller" Hinds & wife Betsy. His children: 3. Jane Hinds b MD Nov 20, 1787 married to Joel Bond brother of Joseph 3. Charity Hinds b. b. Aug 9, 1789 married William Bond, brother of Joel & Joseph above Did I read these entries below correctly.

Pg 43 59. JOSEPH BOND (John-Joseph), second child and eldest son of John and Jane (Beeson) Bond, was born Feb 29, 1780, in Guilford County, N.C. His parents being Friends of Quakers he had a birthright membership in that society. In the year 1795, when he was 15 years of age, a certificate of membership from Center Monthly Meeting of Friends of Guilford County, N.C. to New Hope Monthly Meeting of Green County, Tenn., was granted to Joseph Bond and his four brothers, Benjamin, Joel, Isaac and William. It is supposed that his father moved at that time from North Caroline to Tennessee, taking his children and moving their membership in the meeting, the father not being a member at the time. When in 1797 Lost Creek Monthly Meeting was established he and his brothers became members of that meeting, located in Jefferson County, Tenn. At the age of 17 years he married out of the meeting, contrary to the rules of the society, and thereby lost his membership. The records of Lost Creek Monthly Meeting, page 16, dated Nov. 18, 1797 note this marriage "out of meeting". From this time on no records of him could be found in the records of the monthly meeting. We learn from his grandchildren that he, Joseph Bond, married (1797) ABIGAIL HINDS. She died about 1841. She was the daughter of JOSEPH (?) HINDS, who wife was a Ludlow. The children of Joseph and Abigail Bond were: 265. I Joel, b Aug 13, 1798 266. II Sarah, b. Dec. 12, 1799 267. III John 268. IV Jane, b. Sept. 7, 1803 269. V Samuel 270. VI Malinda 271.

JOEL BOND (John-Joseph), son of John and Jane (Beeson) Bond, born Jan 18, 1784, in Guilford County, N.C.; moved to Jefferson County, Tenn., in 1795, and a few years later settled in Wayne County, Ky., where he married JANE HINDS, born in Maryland, Nov 20, 1787, daughter of JOSEPH HINDS (called "MILLER" JOE HINDS) and wife Betsey. This JOSEPH HINDS being a brother to ABIGAIL HINDS, who previous to this had married Joseph Bond, a brother to Joel. About the year 1835 he moved from Kentucky to Miller County, Mo. However, he lived a year or two in Breckenridge County, Ky., before going to Missouri. He died in Miller County, Mo., Feb. 1, 1856. His residence was west of Spring Garden. It has been said of him that he did not own slaves, as did some of his brothers. So far as learned the children's names were as follows: 279. I William M., b. Oct 2, 1815 280. II Stephen W. 281.
