This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Author: SIOBHAN7 Surnames: Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.massey/2908/mb.ashx Message Board Post: I'm descended from Richard Massey and Winney Chamblee of Wake County, NC and Patrick County, VA c. late 18th/early 19th centuries, via their son Obediah and his first wife Nancy Bryant (married in 1813 in Patrick County). Obediah and Nancy's daughter Mary "Polly" Massey and John Stone (married in 1838 in Franklin County, VA) are my third great grandparents. However, I may also be descended from Richard and Winney's eldest son Warren Massey and Susannah Bartlett (married 1803 Patrick County). I have undocumented information that my ancestor Nancy Massey (married John Bryant, Sr in 1829 in Rockingham County, NC) was their daughter, but as yet I can't find anything concrete to prove or disprove this. Nancy had died by 1840 and in 1850 John Bryant was living in Patrick County with his second wife and family as an immediate neighbor to Warren and Susannah's son James Addison Massey and his family. This could just be a coincidence, but it is the closest thing I have to a lead at this point. If anyone can share all the names and dates of Warren and Susannah Bartlett's known children, I would be enormously grateful and will be glad to reciprocate in any way I possibly can.
