Again, I have no particular interest in these families except insofar as they may connect to my Moore/Watkins family who connect to early sC. There is reference in "Early Fam of S MD,' vol 1, revised, p 298 of an early Norwood family. "Founders of Anne ARundel CO, MD" also has reference to the same name.

Very interesting. A Sherrod Witherington, b 1841 was the son of Redding Witherington and Nancy Ann Smith md 1837. Did Nancy Ann name her son after a brother? Do you have any siblings for Sherrod Thomas Smith? Redding and Nancy had a daughter Nancy who md a Venter(s). Does anyone know this Venter's given name? An Amelia Venters md John Witherington, Jr in 1836.

I've been monitoring the Smith, Tyson, & Witherington traffic and it seems that there may be a tie to my gg grandfather Sherrod Thomas Smith who was most likely born in Pitt County April 24, 1821. His parents have not been positively identified as yet. But his wife, Sarah Venters, daughter of Benjamin Venters, Jr, grew up in S. Pitt Co. On Sherrod & Sarah 1847 marriage bond in Craven Co., was the bondsman Redding Witherington. They had 2 sons; Redding Witherington Smith (my g grandfather) and Stephen Augustus Smith. Whenever I start working on the above lines the name Sherrod Tyson and Witherington appears. vr, Carroll

Jean, Seth was a fairly common name with several families of Pitt County. I have a hunch that if Seth Smith Worthington came out of the Pitt or Craven County area, he may have had ties to the Suttons, Haddocks, and Smiths of southern Pitt County. This is just a hunch. There was a Benjamin Sutton, b. ca 1765, d. abt 1843, md. ca 1797 to Kisiah "Kissey" Haddock. They had a son Seth. Kisiah "Kissey" Haddock had ties to families that may be related to Witheringtons and Smiths and Mills.

Doris, Thanks for the Anne Arrundel County, MD information. As far as is known, the Worthingtons/Witheringtons, Wetheringtons, etc. who ended up in Pitt County, NC, descended from Witheringtons who came into Craven County, NC around 1730. These Witheringtons are known to have come directly from Calvert County, MD, most likely by a water route. So far, to my knowledge, no one has connected the Calvert County Witherington/Widdrington family to the Worthington/Witherington family in Anne Arundel County, MD. It is thought that the Calvert County Witheringtons/Widdringtons immigrated from Northumberland, England during the late 1600's. Considering the close proximity of the two counties, it would not be surprising to find a cousin relationship between the Calvert County Witherington/Widdrington family and the Worthington/Witherington family of Anne Arundel County, MD, but as far as I know, no one has been able to prove one. WITHERINGTON-L@rootsweb.com is a great list to explore the research for the Witherington families from Calvert Co., MD to Craven County, NC. Efforts are being made to research the English connections.

Trish, Do you have any Bakers in your line? I'm asking because some time back a Julia Worthington emailed me about a Rachel that appears with the James Baker family in Greene Co in 1870. Her name could be Rachel Baker or Rachel Grizzard or Rachel Hobbs. Not sure. Julia was asking about her as though her name was Rachel Baker. We also have a Jane Baker that we cannot place. We think she was the daughter of Elijah Baker and Muriah Hobbs of Greene Co.

Because they are two entirely different families. The name Moye is found very early in England and I assume May is also. I suspect that Mayo and May might be confused but not May and Moye. We can document the first Moye in the US in the mid 1600's and who he married in London before moving to Va. Both were killed by the Indians.

The name Seth interests me as a Seth Smith Witherington who on the 1860 census says that he was born in NC. I have found no other Seths in the Witherington line or any of the know collateral lines. Is it possible that there is a relationship between Seth Tyson and Seth Smith Witherington who migrated to Ralph, Tuscaloosa Co, AL before 1844? Are there many Seths in the late 1700s and early 1800s Jean jow@kua.net From Sunny Florida Where oh where are my ancestors hiding. -----Original Message----- From: Paula Baker <paulabaker69@hotmail.com> To: NC-PCFR-L@rootsweb.com <NC-PCFR-L@rootsweb.com> Date: Saturday, April 20, 2002 7:12 PM Subject: [NC-PCFR] Penny Tyson 1850 Greene Co >Need Martha's help with this one, or anybody's help.

Janice, Would an old time spelling for May be Moye? I've never understood why those two names aren't considered interchangeable. Paula ----Original Message Follows---- From: "Janice Tripp Gurganus" <jtginnc@coxnc.rr.com> Reply-To: NC-PCFR-L@rootsweb.com To: NC-PCFR-L@rootsweb.com Subject: [NC-PCFR] Penelope Tyson Date: Sun, 21 Apr 2002 15:43:57 -0400 Paula, Martha, Linda, and others, I'm really curious about this Penelope TYSON. My ggrandmother was Penelope MOYE; she married (1/28/1852) Joshua TRIPP, SR. Joshua was first married to Allie TYSON (in 1832). I show Penelope's birth as Ca. 1823, however, I have not proven this; Joshua was born Ca 1805. One of her brothers was William Henry MOYE, b Ca 1825. I realize that all of this is a stretch, but wonder if Penelope married a TYSON before marrying Joshua TRIPP.

Yes, I believe the William listed in the Greene Co census below is the brother of my Mary Lula Tyson, my gggrandmother. Also, the Harvey Tyson listed was the husband of the McKeel that is said to be buried in Greene Co. He predeceased her by several years. The Frances listed is the mother of Mary Lula Tyson/Puss. William appears a bit early. His birthdate has been listed as 1861, but either the census was late or he was born earlier than 1861 or this is a William born to Thomas and Rachel Tyson and the other William came along later. Both William and Puss/Mary Lula are listed in the 1870 Greene Co Census and William and Puss are listed in the 1880 Pitt Co census with mother Fannie Tyson. See Evelyn's notes on the Rootsweb page below. Harrel's Chapel Cemetery "Also buried there, but no marker, is Francis McKeel Tyson, Sarah Sorrow's sister. She died in 1919. She was old when she died. Her husband was Harvey Tyson, who had been dead several years when Frances died.)" Now, here is one option. Hosea Tyson who married Fannie Sattherwaite and died in the 1830s (Hyde County) left in his will 3 slaves, Barzilla, Offey, and another. I'm wondering if they were very light children who could have been his...etc. Not likely, but Barzilla is listed as a Seamstress and Alphay/Anpay listed as a Servant. Remember that Rachel was a Speight. Anpay was a female Speight name, I believe. There was an Anpay Speight who was a midwife, older than this Anpay, I think. (My hair is falling out.) Thanks to all.
