Surnames: Poore, Haden Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/QBB.2ACI/607.187.188.1.1.1.1.1.1 Message Board Post: Here is additional information re Thomas Poore that married Susannah Haden. I'm afraid the generations of Thomas Poore are getting mixed up as more than one Thomas Poore had a wife named Susannah. Susannah Haden was the daughter of Zachariah Haden and Elizabeth Poore. She was born 29 Sep 1768 as listed in THE DOUGLAS REGISTER. Parents Zachariah Haden & Elizabeth Poore were married 27 Jan 1763: Elizabeth was the daughter of Thomas Poor. Surety Obadiah Daniel (brother-in-law to be). Wit: Milley Poor and Ann Poor. Joseph Haden makes affadavit that Zachariah is "21 years of age or upwards" DOUGLAS REGISTER says: "both of this parish" Elizabeth Poore was the daughter of Thomas Poore & Elizabeth Moseley. The marriage between Thomas Poore & Elizabeth Moseley took place approximately 1744 when John Moseley gave them a gift: 16 Oct 1744. Deed of Gift from John Mosley, Sr to son-in-law Thomas Poor and his daughter Elizabeth Poor - 3 slaves, Ben, Hannah & Sue. Goochland Co VA Deed Book 4, p.433. Elizabeth Moseley Poore was born 14 Jul 1725 according to the Parish register of Christ Church, Middlesex Co, VA, so presumably her husband was approximately the same age. Going back an additional generation, Thomas Poore who married Elizabeth Moseley is thought to be the son of Thomas Poore and a Susannah whose surname is unknown. This relationship is proved by an additional gift to Thomas Poore and Elizabeth Moseley at about the time they married: Goochland DB 4, p.433. Susannah, wife of Thomas Poor Senr. relinquished her dower in a deed of gift of 200 acres to Thomas Poor Junr. & Elizabeth his wife. Now back to the Thomas Poore that married Susannah Haden. Here is believed to be the record of his birth from THE DOUGLAS REGISTER: Rob: Pore & Judith Walker a son named Thomas born Jan: 5 1762. Baptized 1762 Feb: 20. p.61 of Parish register. There is no consensus of opinion that I can find regarding Robert Poore, father of this particular Thomas, although some believe he is another son of the eldest Thomas, listed above as Thomas Sr. who married the Susannah whose surname is unknown. This seems likely. Thomas Poore and Susannah Haden had the following children: Family Group Sheet ============================================ Husband: Thomas POOR ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Birth: 5 Jan 1762 Goochland County, Virginia Chr: 20 Feb 1762 Goochland County, Virginia Death: Jun 1811 Woodford County, Kentucky Marriage: 14 Feb 1786 Goochland County, Virginia Father: Robert POOR (1730-1803) Mother: Judith WALKER (1736- ) ============================================ Wife: Susannah HADEN ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Birth: 29 Sep 1768 Goochland County, Virginia Chr: 3 Nov 1768 Goochland County, Virginia Death: abt 1834 Marion County, Missouri Father: Zachariah HADEN ( -1792) Mother: Elizabeth POOR (1742-1804) ============================================ Children ============================================ 1 F Lucy POOR Birth: abt 1790 Virginia Spouse: Dr. John B.
