Thanks Sue for your reply, It does help to know that the marriage of Alexander Jr. and Nancy Clark is right. I will just have to keep looking. I don't know if they married in Lincoln County, TN or if they married in NC before going to TN. I feel that if his date of birth is right (1777) and he did not go to TN until about 1808 that he must have been married before he was 31 years old. but all the children that he and Elizabeth have (that I know of) was born in TN I have never been able to find anything on him or his father (John Beard) in Buncomb County, NC Thanks again Sue, Billie ----- Original Message ----- From: "suehoward" <suehoward@prodigy.net> To: <MSNESHOB-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Tuesday, November 18, 2003 9:45 AM Subject: Re: [MSNESHOB] McKees of Neshoba Co., MS early 1800's > Billie, > > It's nice to hear from you.

Billie, It's nice to hear from you. Well, I wish I could help you, but I really don't know anything about the Beard family. It is true that one of the children of my great, great grandparents (John Clark and Elizabeth McKee) married an Alexander Beard, Jr. That was Nancy Clark, born on December 17, 1816 in Lincoln Co., TN. She married Alexander Beard, Jr. on January 15, 1838 in Lincoln Co., TN. Nancy was the second oldest child of John and Elizabeth Clark. I doubt very much that the first Alexander Beard married a Clark and then the son, Alexander, Jr. also married a Clark. I bet that people have gotten it all confused - maybe because Nancy's mother was named Elizabeth. I have a similar situation on my mother's side of the family, with the surname of Strickland. In that case, my 3rd great grandfather, Edward Gilbert, married a Mary ? in the 1750's (I'm just assuming that's when it was) in Guilford Co., North Carolina. We have never found out her maiden name. Now, some say that she was a Strickland. Well, I just don't believe it because two of Edward and Mary's children (one being my 2nd great grandfather) - William and John - they both married Strickland sisters. I know that people used to marry their cousins a long time ago - I guess because there weren't too many women around, but I just don't believe that this was the case. Now, it could have been a completely different Strickland family - not even realted - but I highly doubt it. Same thing could be true with your Beard's, I suppose. I know there was at least one other Clark family in Lincoln Co. besides mine. If I find anything, I will certainly let you know. Good luck, Billie.

About 1855 William R., William P. and Hugh Jenkins arrived in Neshoba County, Mississippi, from Union County North Carolina. They had two more brothers and three sisters of which I have no information on. Their names were Archibald, John L, Martha, Harriet, and Queen Ann Jenkins. I am looking for any information you might have on these relatives. Please, if you have information on them let me know by reply. Thank you very much Milton Jenkins

Hi Sue, I am a little late in sending out this to you for this has been on my computer for several days but I wanted to ask you if in your Clark line have any Beards. My GG grandfather was Alexander Beard who moved from NC to Lincoln County, TN -- In Alexander's bible he put down that he and Elizabeth married -- a date which I can not remember right now --I do not have my notes in front of me. But he did not put down her maiden name. Now I have found some that say she was Elizabeth Clark and some say that she was not a Clark. So I thought it would just be a long shot if you had Beard's in your line of Clarks?? Now I am told that Alexander Beard had a son Alexander Jr. and he did marry a Nancy Clark and I think that is right. I think it seems strange that with his mother being a Clark that he would marry a Clark?? Don't you think so. Just thought I would ask.

Many libraries will have a copy of the schedule. You can have your local library search through the nationwide lending system to see if libraries who own copies of the mortality index will lend it to your local library. I happened to see copies of both the 1850 and 1860 Mississippi indexes at the State Library of Michigan last year (not much help for Mississippi residents as I don't think they lend it out) and was able to find proof of my gggrandmother's death and the reason. It's the only existing proof we've been able to find of her death, as we can't find the church records to check there.

That's all right Sue. I really don't have anything further on the McKee family. Good luck. Loudene

Thank you. If he is a son of John McKee the elder, then that John McKee would have been born in Ireland also, I believe. Do not believe they would have returned to Ireland. But do believe it's very possible he may have been a cousin. May never know.

I am a descendant of William R. McKee who was a substantial property owner in Noxubee and Kemper Counties. William R. McKee was from Chester County, South Carolina. I believe him to be the William McKee named, by John McKee of the Pinckney District is his will dated 11 September 1794, as his son, along with five other children, Samuel Collins McKee, who seems to have been born of a previous marriage, Susanna Mckee, John McKee, Martha McKee and James McKee. John McKee's widow was Agness McKee. On 24 July 1799, Agness McKee and others were appointed administrators of the estate of John McKee of Pinckney District. In the 1850 Census, there were two John McKees residing in Neshoba County. One listed in family 476, was aged 22 years and born in Ireland, the otherr in household 447, family 467 was aged 65 and born in South Carolina. Both men were married to ladys named Margaret. In the 1850 Census for Kemper County, there is a John McKee, aged 28 years, claiming to be born in Ireland. He was censused next to Kelsey McKee, aged 24 years, also claiming to have been born in Ireland. William R. McKee had two sons named John McKee and Hugh Kelsey McKee. In tracing William's movements as he came west, there is a gap, in which it would have been possible for the family to have returned to Ireland. So far, I have been unable to find confirming information in subsequent censuses. People researching William's son John, do not think this is the same man. There is no question of Hugh Kelsey McKee not being William's son, as William married Margaret Kelsey, the daughter of Hugh Kelsey/Kelso of Chester County, SC--this is confirmed from several sources. The John McKee of Neshoba County who was born in SC was born 19 December 1783, SC and married before 1812, Margaret Cunningham, born 7 September 1791, SC. In the 1830's they migrated to Neshoba County and are buried in Morrow Cemetery. William R. McKee's know migratory path was Chester County, SC>Gap>Perry County, Alabama>Noxubee County, Mississippi. I do not know if this is any help. The John McKee in Neshoba County, of Ireland is either a son of the other John McKee, or they are not related at all.

Not necessarily. I believe the John McKee who died before 24 July 1799 in Chester County, South Carolina is possibly the son of the William McKee who arrive in North Carolina from Ireland aboard the Brigantine Free Mason unfortunately what I am looking at does not show the date. There was a wealthy land owner named William McKee who lived in Mechlenberg County, NC and had a son John who lived in Chester County, SC. It is entirely possible that the grandchildren of this William McKee could have visited their family in Ireland. All of this is however speculation, as I have not had the time to research the records of North Carolina to compare with South Carolina to reach any conclusions. Marleen Van Horne

I know I'm butting in on your conversation, but I, too, am interested in the McKee's of Neshoba County, Mississippi. You've probably seen messages from me or queries from me about the McKee's there. My great, great grandmother was an Elizabeth McKee, born in 1798 in either York or Chester Co., SC. I'm not positive which one. I know that she married my gg grandfather, John Clark, in about 1814, in either York or Chester Co., SC. They left York Co. with John Clark's parents, James and Mary (Cowan) Clark, to go to Tennessee, and arrived in Lincoln Co., TN before 1820. After John Clark's death in 1837, Elizabeth (McKee) Clark left Lincoln Co., TN and went south to Neshoba Co. I have wondered for a long time why she went there. It seems likely to me that she had relatives there, doesn't it to you? I believe one son, Hugh Clark, may have already been down in that area - Kemper Co., maybe. Elizabeth took her minor children with her, of course, and I believe left some grown children in Lincoln Co. Her youngest child, Ebenezer Samuel (Sam) Clark, born in Lincoln Co. in 1835, was my great grandfather. Another child that I know of who went with Elizabeth, was Joseph Clark (who had married an Abigail Earnest). These two Clarks - Sam and Joseph had large families and many descendants (maybe still some living there - but I'm not sure). My great grandfather was in the Civil War and then came out to be a Baptist minister and was the first minister for White Oaks Baptist Church, I understand. He married Elizabeth Winfield and one of their daughters was my grandmother - Louisa Frances (Fanny) Clark, born in about 1864. Fanny later married my grandfather, John Randal Johnson, who was born in Neshoba Co. in 1859 and their oldest son was my father - Walter I. Johnson, born in 1885 (I was born in 1936, myself, when my father was almost 51 years of age!). So now, you pretty much have my history in Neshoba Co. I hope that somebody will be able to tell me one way or the other if Elizabeth McKee Clark was a sister to one of their McKees, since they came from the same general area of South Carolina.

Interested in John McKee born 29 Dec 1793; wife Margaret 7 Sept 1791 both died and are buried in Neshoba Co., MS, Morrow Cemetery. What connection, if any, do they have to: John McKee born 20 May 1828 in Ireland died in Neshoba Co. and Thomas McKee born Jun 1834 lived in Neshoba Co. until early 1870's when he moved to Hopkins Co., TX and died there.

Hi Kay, I don't know if I answered your e-mail about the Beards that I am researching. My Grandfather was Charles McKinney Beard born in MS about 1846 and died in San Augustine Co. TX about 1922. His father was George Reed Beard and his mother I think was Martha Warren. George married Mary Faubus Causey , This was a second marriage for Mary and I also think it was for George . Some researches think that Mary was the mother of Charles (my Grandfather) but I do not think so. George R. Beard was son of Alexander Beard of Lincoln Co. TN. Alexander Beard was son of John Beard of NC. I need help in getting proof from son to father. Everyone I have been in touch with seems to think that this line of Beards is right but I do not have all the proof connecting them. I found George R. Beard and also Charles "Mack" in the 1870 census They moved to East Texas abt. 1871. Thanks for any help that you may have or can find.

We found a printed copy of the 1860 Mississippi Mortality Schedule in the genealogy section of a public library. I do not know if any of the mortality schedules are on line.

Hello, I don't have a lot of information and, unfortunately, at the moment my computer is undergoing problems (am using my husband's computer now). But, Lott Thomas Green's father, James Green, married (2nd) Louisa Jane Jones Hudson whose first husband died as a prisoner of war at Camp Chase, Ohio during the Civil War. Louisa Jane and William David Hudson were my gg-grandparents. James Green's first wife was Elizabeth but will have to wait until my computer is repaired to give you her surname and all pertinent dates, etc. When I can get back to my data base, I shall be happy to send you what I have on my gg-grandmother's marriage to James Green. I am still searching for their place of burial in Leake/Neshoba/ Newton/ Scott counties, MS. In the meantime, I would appreciate hearing anything you know regarding the Green family. Sincerely, Gerry [Geraldine R. Lee]
