I have just the source for you! Imagine if you could find one deed that laid out five generations of a family. Well now you have: http://i274.photobucket.com/albums/jj264/garymaher/johnfranklindeed.jpg This 1808 deed states that John Sr.'s father was Edward, that his father was Ebenezar and HIS father was John. Plus it identifies William as John Sr.'s son. One deed, five generations! Gary ---------- Original Message ---------- Thanks Gary. I am very into sources. I am interested in Ebenezer's line as Tabitha Franklin Holloway had grandson named Ebenezer in addition to son named John Franklin Holloway.
Yes, Excellent! and very rare. Thank you. Now, in 1790 Wor census there were 2 John Franklins: Sr and Jr. In 1800 there were 3 John Franklins: Sr., Jr., and one with no suffix. Sr. d bet June/Jul in 1810, his son John (who may or may not have been Jr.) must have predec'd him because it is son John's children who are mentioned in Sr.'s Will. Any idea who the other John in 1800 is?--presumably the one in the 1810 census. On Wed, Sep 12, 2012 at 11:58 PM, garymaher@juno.com <garymaher@juno.com>wrote: > I have just the source for you!
