Trish Thank you so very much. Starting to get a good "picture" of this family form information for good folks like you. We feel sure that my wife is a descendant of Gracey Llewellyn. Do you happened to have information on her other than what you sent me. Thanks again Thomas Glascock In a message dated 4/6/2009 2:27:51 P.M.

I also have an interest in the Llewellyn family because I suspect a Llewellyn ancestor, since one of my ancestors has LLewellyn as a middle name. I have in my collection of data: Jesse H.

"The Mooring property was in the northern part of the county (Pitt County), north of Tar River." Source: LaRue Mooring Evans, Article #961, Pitt County Chronicles, Vol. I.. This northeastern section of Pitt County adjoins both Martin and Beaufort counties. Perhaps the "L." initial of your John L. Mooring is for the family name Llewellyn. In Chronicles of Pitt County, North Carolina, Vol. I, the Mooring family information goes back three more generations. "John Mooring and his wife Jane White resided in Isle of Wight, England. Their son Christopher (Mooring) was born there in 1690. Source: LaRue Mooring Evans, Article #961, Pitt County Chronicles, Vol. I. In 1710, 103 years after the settlement of Jamestown, Christopher Mooring came to Surry County, Virginia. In the records of Surry County we find, "Certificate is granted Christopher Mooring to the secretary's office for 50A of land for the importation of himself into this colony, he having made oath as the law directs being free when he came in." These same county records show that he married Mary Simmons, and they had six children: Christopher, Jr., William, Lucy, Jane, Mary, and John. Christopher, Sr. died in 1750 and his will, probated on March 20, 1753 in Southwark Parish, Surry, deeded "estate in England to sons John, Christopher, and William." Of course, at that time daughters did not inherit land. Source: LaRue Mooring Evans, Article #961, Pitt County Chronicles, Vol. I. Although the record is not clear, it appears as if his (Christopher Mooring, Sr.'s) son John (b.1720, d.1800) married twice, Elizabeth Harris and Sarah Harris. Also, according to DB-O (1797-1801) of Pitt County , John (Mooring) and his family now lived in North Carolina (when he died). According to the county records, he had seven children (when he died)… Source: LaRue Mooring Evans, Article #961, Pitt County Chronicles, Vol. I. Note: Seven children - not clear which of the mothers belongs to each of the children. Since there is also a Harris ancestor, perhaps the "H." in your Jesse's given name stands for Harris. I have not verified any of this, but I have listed my sources. Trish Worthington Cobb On Apr 4, 2009, at 7:30 AM, Tag27408@aol.com wrote: > Jesse H Mooring is the 3rd great-grandfather of my wife.
