I have lost the parents of my greatgrandfather John Henry DAUGHTRY who lived most of his life in Albermarle Co. VA. At the end of this email is the sum of all data I have on him and his parents who are variously called James or Henry DAUGHTRY and Elizabeth or Betsy BOYKIN. John Henry DAUGHTRY and his sister have clear evidence of being in Northampton Co. NC but no record has been found of the parents. Any record of the related individuals listed would be appreciated. I am especially interested in locating further data on the sister who married and resided in Halifax Co. NC. and possible guardian papers if John Henry DAUGHTRY was orphaned.

EDWARDS and lived near Weldon NC, possibly in Halifax Co. NC, They had a daughter who died about 1928 without will or heirs and the property reverted to the county because none knew of the family of John Henry DAUGHTRY. Family history also says that John Henry lived with a Drury or Drewry HARRIS until joining the military.
