If you got it twice, sorry. << You won't believe this but I had a copy of that family sitting right in front of my computer when I got this email. This is really not my family but Sallie Ann Ophelia King married into the family and I was tracing her. What I have is from "The Heritage of Sampson County North Carolina." Not many dates in it on Jacob's family but a little more info. George Kornegay had 9 sons: Daniel Elijah John Jacob George, Jr. William David Joseph Abraham and one daughter: Mary who married a DeBruhl. George Kornegay, Jr. settled in Duplin County. He was given 3 tracts of land there by his father on Christmas Day in 1767. The book says "according to tradition" so I don't what this part is based on: The tradition part says that George, Jr.'s wife was was an English widow named Margaret Lullum (nee Downing.) They had at least 5 sons and 1 daughter who were identified in George, Jr.'s will probated in Duplin County in 1808. children: daughter: Louella was the wife of a John Koregay who may have been a son of Jacob Koregay,(George Jr.'s brother) George David Basil Daniel Jacob Of these, George apparentlyremained in Duplin Co. while David married Zilphia Oliver and settled in Sampson Co.. David died in 1821. His will identifies two sons: George O. and James F. Kornegay and two daughters Sarah and Margaret Kornegay. Basil Kornegay married Tabitha King who was a sister to Vice-President William Rusus King. The names of their children are not known. She left him about 1817 and moved to Alabama with her mother and brothers. Basil died in the early 1820's probably in Duplin. Daniel Kornegay married Edna Flowers and settled in Wayne Co. They had several children but only one George L. Kornegay is known. Daniel died in 1839. Jacob Kornegay settled in Wayne Co. He married Elizabeth Wiggins sometime shortly after the turn of the 19 century. They had at least 5 children. Of these, Bryan and Robert apparently died young. The other three were Berthena, who married a man named Smith. Margaret who married Alfred Flowers and Marshall. Jacob Kornegay had died by 1824, when his property was divided among these latter three children. Bryan Kornegay was given land by his parents in 1815 but died by 1824. Bryan's land was divided between Berthena, Margaret and Marshall. Marshall Kornegay was the only surviving son of Jacob Kornegay and was born on June 21, 1812. He married by the mid 1830's to a woman named Catherine. Her maiden name (according to this book) has never been confirmed. (but the writer of this article in the Heritage book seems to believe Catherine was the daughter of Lewis Cogdell and Anne King of Wayne Co.) There is more in this book about Marshall's children if anyone needs it. Ann Robbins >>
