I can't seem to find a marriage for Braddock Williams b.1806/07 NC. He was in the 1850 Duplin County Census married to a Mary ________ but there was 14 yrs. difference in their ages and it is quite possible Braddock was married before. If someone has access to marriage records I would like ANY marriages to a Braddock Williams. It is also possible he married in Onslow County. Any help will be greatly appreciated and will share information on this family. Margaret in Ga. Idabs@aol.com

Does anyone know where I can find this document? Is it a book, or do I have to go to Archives for a look-up? Searching for James Henry Groves married Rebecca Jane Ezzell Sept 3, 1870.

I am looking for information about Michael (Mikel) Ezell (Ezzell), listed in the 1790 census for Duplin Co. Will was posted in Duplin Co, July 1800. Interested in finding more information about his sons, especially the one named Frederick. Appreciate any help!

Hello, I'm new to this message board and need help. Our big library is closed until late summer for expansion, leaving me without access to research records. Would some kind soul with access to Duplin County Census records please check the 1830 and 1840 Census for a Braddock Williams? The 1850 Duplin County Census lists: Braddock Williams 44 farmer b.NC Mary 25 NC William H. 11 all Ch. b.NC Susan M. 9 Benjamin F. 7 Ann C. 3 Given the difference in ages, there is a possibility, Braddock may have been married before. I need to be able to prove Braddock was the son of William Williams and Sarah Cooper who were married 17 January 1806 in Duplin County.(also need children of William and Sarah). My hope is to someday find where they are burried and be able to visit. Any information on this family will be greatly appreciated. I come from the Benjamin Franklin Williams line with info to present. Will be happy to share with all. Margaret in Ga. Idabs@aol.com

Hi Listmembers! A William WEST is on a Duplin tax list of 1811. William owned 136 acres and was taxed for one white poll. Also on Duplin tax lists at that time were Samuel, James and a Daniel. Is anyone researching any of the above WEST men? Thanks. Fran

Hi Listmembers! One Elizabeth KNOWLES charged a William WEST with paternity of Obby KNOWLES. This happened Duplin Co. around 1816. I have misplaced my Court records and wonder if anyone is researching either the KNOWLES family or William WEST? Thanks. Fran
