John Randolph Loye is my grandfather he married Anne Carter. They lived on a farm in the Buffalo Creek area of Guilford however they may have been from Orange, CO or Alamance Co originally. My father was Johnny P. Loye he and his siblings were born in Guilford Co. My father always talked about visiting an Uncle Jesse, when he was a child. I always thought that he was my grandfather's brother but it not very sure now simple because he never mention the last name. Also when I was a child my dad brought me to a Church near Burlington or Gibsonville called Ossippee(?) Chapel. He said his family went there and he had several young siblings that were burried at the church. Also, my mother gave me a book she received at a Loy family gathering in the 80s. A man name William Porter Kellam wrote the book, he was a descendant of Elizabeth Loy Wyrick. Somehow I am related to them. In his book he states his Grandmother's father was Julius Hardy Loy(1799-1880) who married Catherine Isley! (no date given). There is also a John Loy (1747-1840) listed who married a Mary Duffie Holt and died in Orange County, NC. They had six children, Martin, John, George, Jacob, Henry and Mary. Next he list Henry Loy that was listed as marring Sophia Albright. There is only one child listed in the book for Henry and Sophia and that is Julius Hardy (mentioned above) . That is about all I can remember now.
