Surnames: Holt Mann Jones Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/HKB.2ACI/2075.1.2 Message Board Post: Nolan, I'm very interested in what you know about Eli & Dicey Holt Jones and their children. I have spent many years researching the Mann and Holt and allied families that lived in North Carolina in Chatham and Wake Counties in the late 1700s and the 1800s. I'm very glad someone knows about Dicey. No one here knew what became of her and knows little about her. She married Eli in January 1810, showed up on the Chatham County census on the same page as two of her brothers in 1820, then she disappeared. Did she and Eli move to Tennessee in the 1820s? I am very familiar with Dicey's older brothers George A. Holt and Richard Holt. She also had an older brother named John. I am a descendant of George A. Holt. One of George's granddaughters, Rebecca Catherine Holt, is my great-grandmother. She married Lindsay Sanders Mann in 1878. I have much information on the Holt family I would glad to share if you are interested. Can you tell me when Dicey (Dicia) died and where she is buried? It was in the 1850s, correct? Apparently before 1858 as it appears Eli remarried to an Anna Pain. And do you know when Dicey was born? I have circa 1787 in Johnston County, NC. Was her given name Dicia or Dicea or what? And did she have a middle name? Anything you can tell me will be much appreciated. Clayton Mann Burlington, NC
