I am looking for information about Celia Pearson. I have absolutely no information about her yet,except she was married to Adam Bramble 25 Aug 1817. This information was found on Ancestry.com marriage records index for Dorchester Co., Maryland.,taken from License book No. 2, page 34. I have a hypothesis of my own ( but no proven sources ) about Adam and Celia Pearson. My Adam Bramble was born 1796, Dorchester Co., MD ( birth records) married Celia Pearson ( marriage index ) There is a very small "possibility" Celia "may" be the daughter of Stephen and Leder Pearson. or Labin and Mary Pearson both of these parents had daughters . Labin and Mary - dau., Alsindah Pearson b.10 Jan 1797 ( Chop. Parish records) Stephen and Leder - dau., Selah Pearson b. 8 Dec 1797 ( Chop. Parish records ) My Hypothesis ---- Adam #2 and Celia married 1817 ( fact ) and they had children It appears ( from the FEW records I can find ) that Celia may have died ( maybe between. 1826 and 1850 ) leaving Adam with abt. 5 young children. Listed below are my thought about who these children may have been ! 1. Benjamin b, abt 1819, Maryland 2. Adam #3 b. abt 1820 3. Jeremiah b. abt. 1821 4. Samuel ( maybe Samuel Zachariah ) b. abt 1825 5. Soloman ( maybe Soloman Fraizer ) b.abt 1828 there may also have been a daughter Lucinda ( Lucy) b. abt 1832 I based this hypothesis on the 1850 and 1860 census records, Lakesville, Dorchester Co., MD. These young people ages 18 to 28 y/o are living together, without parents or other family. It is possible ( if these are indeed Adam and Celia's Children ) that Adam left these children with other family or maybe even alone. It is rumored that Celia Pearson was Native American and Adam was known as " Nanticoke Adam ", I have never found any records to prove that fact, it was told to me by my Mother and her family and if this is true it may be these children were shunned by other Bramble family and they pretty much raised themselves. There is also the possibility that Adam left his children in Dorchester County and moved to Virginia and started a new family and was married two more times. 1st to Mary J. Ambrose, the young widow of Michael Ambrose. According to the 1850 census Glochester, Va., Adam was 54 y/o and Mary J. was 23 y/o and they were married that year ( 1850 ) I don't know if Mary J. died, but 1860 census Adam now 63 y/o appears to be married to 30 y/o Anna Picket. Anna's death cert. states she was born 1830 Norfolk, Va and died Tanners Creek, Norfolk, Va. 1892, Widow of Adam Bramble. If this information sound familiar to anyone I would like to hear from you Sorry about the rambling information about Adam, but I was hoping maybe you may recognize some of this info and be able to help me with the Pearson family and the Bramble family. Thanks, Sylvia
