Hello Everyone, I haven't posted for Gates/Hertford/Bertie Co folks anything my Marsh/Mash quest in a very long time. I am hoping to ring some bells with the following information on my Hertford Co NC>Bedford TN>Benton Co AR> Dade Co MO Marsh ancestry. I know that in Cathy Ferris' research on her Bertie Co. lines, she has come across these Marsh families as allied to her Bryans (and I'm hoping she has more than maybe found in the archives :-)) I am looking for the ancestry and other family members of GEORGE MARSH/MASH and Mary (unknown surname). George was born before 1755 and found in Hertford Co. 1790 and 1800 census, with large households both years: 1790 NC Census, Edenton District, Hertford Co. George MASH. 1 Male 16 and up; 4 Males under 16; 4 Females including head 1800 Census Hertford Co., NC MASH, George, 2 Males under 10, 1 Male over 45, 2 Females under 10, 2 Females 10-16, 1 Female 26-45, 4 Slaves No Marsh/Mash families were counted in 1810 in Hertford Co. census (according to indexes), but George's likely widow MARY MASH, over 45 years, shows up in 1820 with just likely son Michael Marsh (16 -24 years) in the household. There is also a URIAH MARSH in 1820 in Hertford Co. with several children, wife. Looking at his neighborhood's families suggest he was a probable son of George and Mary. In earlier neighboring BERTIE County NC tax lists and other records I have found a JAMES MARSH and an undoubtedly earlier GEORGE MARSH together in Captain Thomas Pugh's 1762 tax list, together buying items at an estate sale in 1783, etc. For tax list see: http://ftp.rootsweb.com/pub/usgenweb/nc/bertie/census/1762a.txt Because a James Marsh appears often in court records as witness, taking inventories, etc. and George Marsh does not show up, I am assuming that James was probably older (or maybe just a more prominent citizen). On the 1762 tax list, there is a George Marsh in the household of Aaron Ellis, whose wife CATHERINE KING BRYAN ELLIS had a daughter. Her will is here: http://ftp.rootsweb.com/pub/usgenweb/nc/bertie//wills/ellis1779.txt Catherine has identified as married to an EDMUND MARSH, who may have moved to Randolph Co. NC(??Cathy??), or at least other members of Catherine's Bryan children's descendants did. Further, there is a record of a URIAH MARSH involved with issue of a slave Milly Wiggin in Randolph Co NC (?) court. Said slave tied to Catherine and Edmond Marsh as well. See: http://www.rootsweb.com/~ncbertie/court.htm I did notice an Edward MARCH on the 1793 Bertie tax list.. http://ftp.rootsweb.com/pub/usgenweb/nc/bertie/census/1798.txt I am of course interested if anyone has found ties between the Marsh/Mash family in Hertford and that in Bertie Co?? Or if anyone has more information on either? Is James the father of Edmond and George? Edmond the father of the Uriah in Randolph County Records? Uriah and George in Hertford related to these folks. Since Hertford County is burned, I am also searching the surrounding counties My descent is through George and Mary Marsh/Mash's son Michael, who married Elizabeth LANDING/LANDEN in 1822, she was the daughter of Mary HARRELL and Mills LANDIN, married 1800 in Gates Co NC. Mills died about 1803 and Mary married (2) Uriah EURE, Jr. in Gates Co. Michael and Elizabeth Marsh moved to Bedford County, Tennessee about 1827/8 based on later census information for their children. I descend from their son Benjamin James Jordan Marsh who left TN about 1854, and moved to Benton Co AR, just outside Bentonville. Apparently he had a falling out with his father; the rest of his siblings stayed in Bedford or Lincoln Co TN for the most part. When Benjamin moved to Dade Co., Missouri about 1865, he is listed as Benjamin JJ MARCH, and one of his parcels he sold to a BRITTAIN MARCH, who I am very curious about. There is some information on this family at a cousin's WorldConnect/Ancestry.com gedcom website here: http://worldconnect.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=marsh&id=I1005 If any of you do research in Bedford or Lincoln Counties in Tennessee, you are familiar with the books of Tim and Helen Crawford Marsh. He is a descendant of Michael Marsh and Elizabeth Landing. I understand they have been unable to make a connection with other Lincoln Co. TN Marsh families; nor have we been able to connect them when a branch moves to Lawrence Co Missouri. Benjamin lived DIRECTLY on the Dade Co line with Lawrence Co. I look forward to hearing from researchers in this little part of North Carolina who might have some connections or make suggestions for research avenues. I haven't looked carefully at Southampton, Suffolk, Norfolk, Isle of Wight VA records, but hope to soon.. Best Regards, Janet (Baugh) Hunter
If any of you know the family of Frank Elliott Morriss who married Theodosia Ellen Dever, both of whom are buried in the Morris-Speight cemetery in Gates County, I'd like to hear from you. I am wondering if he is related perhaps to the Noah Speight who married Jemima ELLIOTT in Perquimans County about 1814. There are several Speight's buried in that cemetery which leads me to believe that perhaps Frank's lineage converges somewhere with my wife's back to Mordecai Elliott and Leah Smith Elliott, parents of Jemima Elliott who married Noah Speight. My wife descends from Noah and Jemima through their son, William Henry Speight born 1821 who married Margaret Wallace about 1844 in Perquimans County. Other Speights at Morris-Speight cemetery include: Sallie Speight Taylor, wife of Ephraim Taylor 1857-1924 J Frank Speight born 1862 forget death date Addie Speight Roundtree 1877 (?) - 1977 and a Addie R. Speight born or died about 1931 Thanks, Will Smith Speight/Elliott researcher
Hello all, I am looking for copies of the following wills listed in the clerk's fee books of NANSEMOND county, VIRGINIA. The actual wills were supposedly burned in various courthouse fires but some remained in possession of the families and some were re-recorded I believe. Any help is truly appreciated. ABRAM RALLS {RAWLS} JEREMIAH RALLS {RAWLS} & JOHN RALLS {RAWLS} Executors of, record deceased will, 1799 THOMAS RALLS {RAWLS}, AENOS ? RALLS {RAWLS} & JOS. ROSS, Executors of record deceased will, 1799 there was both an AMOS and a ENOS RAWLS so that could have been either one. RACHEL BAKER, AMOS RALLS {RAWLS}, Copy of RACHEL BAKER'S will, 1796 AMOS RAWLS was exec. of her will and apparently married her daughter later, she being MARY BAKER, it appears that AMOS'S brother HARDY RAWLS married her sister PENNY BAKER as well. JOHN RALLS {RAWLS}, JEREMIAH RALLS {RAWLS}, exec. of, records deceased will, 1799 JEREMIAH RAWLS appears to have been the son of DAVID RAWLS who was a brother to this JOHN RAWLS. JOHN RAWLS transferred 300 acres to JEREMIAH RAWLS after the death of DAVID, JOHN had been holding the 650 acres that belonged to his brother DAVID after DAVID'S wife ELIZABETH died and then began transferring it to DAVID & ELIZABETH'S sons as they came of age. Many wills & deeds are referred to in the clerk's fee books for many families in NANSEMOND county, they are very helpful when used with other sources, especially the tax list of NANSEMOND county from 1782 to 1900. thanks again Bobby Rawls Big Spring, Texas
all listers, I am gathering info. on the families that lived in the above areas from the 1600's to 1800's. As I am sure most of you know the families from that area intermarried and most of us are related in some way. I am attempting to combine the records of the families from that area to get a more complete picture of the family makeup. I have a lot in my files already but always need more. The main lines are RAWLS, BAKER, WINBOURNE, HARRELL, HOWELL, BYRD, PORTER, TROTMAN, JONES, HOLLAND, PARKER, FAULK, VAUGHAN, DUKE, NORFLEET, JENKINS, COPELAND, STALLINGS, HARE, EVERITT, DAUGHTREY among others. The NANSEMOND county, VIRGINIA tax list are EXTREMELY helpful in putting families together. I have made great progress in the RAWLS line and on several of the families that married into them. any help is truly appreciated. the results will be posted to my web pages as I progress. thanks in advance I want to thank all of you who have already sent me material, I DO give credit to each of the contributors and will also have a contributor page with contact information with families they are researching. BOBBY RAWLS BIG SPRING, TEXAS
My ggg grandfather was born in 1801 in Hertford Co. His name was William Noel Valentine. He married Rachel Perry in 1823 and had several children. In 1834, they had moved to MS and she died in childbirth. Britton Valentine, born 1811, moved at the same time so we think he was a brother. I am trying to find out something about their parents. Rachel Perry was the daughter of Rachel Askew and William Johnson Perry. If anyone can help me get William's parents names, that would be wonderful. Thanks, Jan JORdan
Hello all, I am looking for info. on JEREMIAH RAWLS who was a resident of NANSEMOND county, VIRGINIA. He died circa 1822 per the land tax of NANSEMOND county, VIRGINIA. JEREMIAH owned 312 acres which seems to be for his service in the war of 1812. this land was changed to the JEREMEHIAH RAWLS {estate} on the 1822 tax list, 150 ACRES and 47 acres were added in 1821, with the 150 acres dropped from the 1822 list. then in 1827 it was changed to MARGARET RAWLS from JEREMIAH RAWLS ESTATE. In 1837 the 312 acres was changed to ALBERT K. RAWLS and the 47 acres was was changed to J. O'BERRY. ALBERT K. RAWLS was ALBERT KELLY RAWLS son of WILLIS RAWLS & ANN KELLY, This WILLIS RAWLS was a son of JOHN RAWLS. It is without a doubt that JOHN RAWLS that died about 1755 was the father of JOHN & DAVID RAWLS, they took over his land with JOHN RAWLS getting 500 acres and DAVID getting 650 acres. DAVID RAWLS died before 1782 when his widow ELIZABETH took over and when she died about 1788-1789 JOHN RAWLS took over the 650 acres. in 1793 JOHN RAWLS transferred 150 acres to NATHANIEL RAWLS {son of DAVID}, This NATHANIEL died about 1804, and also in 1793 JOHN RAWLS transferred to JAMES RAWLS of DAVID 190 acres. in 1794 JOHN RAWLS transferred another 300 acres, this time to JEREMIAH RAWLS, the one that died about 1822. this was to my thoughts also the son of DAVID. Meanwhile in HERTFORD county, NORTH CAROLINA just across the border from NANSEMOND co., VIRGINIA in 1827 several women and their husbands were involved in the estate settlement of a JEREMIAH RAWLS there, it seems to be the same JEREMIAH from NANSEMOND county. the ones involved in that record were MATHIAS BAKER who had married MARY RAWLS who had died before JEREMIAH and her sister REBECCA RAWLS who MATHIAS BAKER married after the death of MARY {He married sisters) the other women were CATHERINE RAWLS, LUCINDY RAWLS who married JOHN BIRD, CATHERINE RAWLS who married ELISHA H. JERNAGAN & ELIZABETH RAWLS who married DEMPSEY NOWELL and moved to HAYWOOD county, TENNESSEE. These families the girls married were common to NANSEMOND common to NANSEMOND county, VIRGINIA. EMILY NOWELL daughter of ELIZABETH RAWLS and DEMPSEY NOWELL married JOSEPH W. RAWLS in HAYWOOD county, TENNESSEE. JEREMIAH RAWLS was on the 1820 census of NANSEMOND county, VIRGINIA with 1 male 10-16, 1 male 16-18, 1 male 16-26, 1 male 45 up, 1 female 10-16 and 1 female 26-45. a DEMSEY NOWELL was listed two names down with 1 male 16-26 in his household {living alone} the questions are. was JEREMIAH RAWLS of NANSEMOND county, VIRGINIA the son of JOHN RAWLS or DAVID RAWLS. I think without a doubt it was DAVID as JOHN RAWLS was put in charge of his brothers land {DAVID RAWLS}, and did not transfer any of his land until after his death. Second, was the JEREMIAH RAWLS of HERTFORD county, the same one from NANSEMOND County? I think so. third, was MARGARET RAWLS his second wife? if so why did she leave her land to ALBERT K. RAWLS who was not her son or the son of JEREMIAH. Or were there TWO ALBERT K. RAWLS? one her son the other the son of WILLIS? The court record in HERTFORD county was in 1827 which is the year the NANSEMOND tax list was changed to MARGARET RAWLS from the JEREMIAH RAWLS estate. It appears that JEREMIAH RAWLS had married twice and MARGARET was his second wife, but this is speculation. does anyone know about JEREMIAH RAWLS or the names involved with him? when ABRAM RAWLS died about 1799 JEREMIAH RAWLS was involved in his estate, was ABRAM RAWLS a brother to JEREMIAH? THANKS in advance. BOBBY RAWLS BIG SPRING, TEXAS
I am new to the mailing list so I thought that I would fill everyone in on my linage. My great grandparents Arthur James BROUGTHON and Elizbeth Grizzel May PERRY were married 10 November 1910 >From what I understand they had all of their children in HERTFORD Co. They Had six children: James Malachi Broughton Clara Mae Broughton Living Broughton (male) Living Broughton (female) George D Broughton Arthur Perry Broughton (my grandfather) I have all information on children Arthur James parents were James Edward BROUGHTON and Harriett Dail, this is where I have hit a brick wall.

to all, As many of you know most families in NORTH CAROLINA can trace several of their families to NANSEMOND county, VIRGINIA. It has been a real problem gathering info. on the families of NANSEMOND county because of so many records destroyed, however there are many that have survived since then. One real help to researchers in this area are the records of the surrounding counties, SOUTHAMPTON & ISLE OF WIGHT counties, VIRGINIA & CHOWAN, GATES, HERTFORD, NORTHAMPTON & BERTIE counties, NORTH CAROLINA. What many researchers don't know is that the families that lived near the border of NORTH CAROLINA in VIRGINIA ARE the same families listed in the records of BERTIE, CHOWAN, NORTHAMPTON counties but especially in GATES & HERTFORD counties, these are the SAME families. I just typed and sent a lot to the RAWLS, BERTIE list and will now send a lot to the BERTIE, HERTFORD 7 RAWLS list pertaing to the RAWLS & associated families. many of the records from HERTFORD county are long and full of names so I will have to "cut out" a lot of info. the records were destroyed for much of HERTFORD but what was left was extremely helpful and pertain directly to the families of BERTIE county as well more later BOBBY RAWLS BIG SPRING, TEXAS
Hello all, I am looking for any information on the family of JOSIAH RAWLS, SR. of BERTIE county, NORTH CAROLINA and his wife FRUSSANAH. JOSIAH was the son of WILLIAM RAWLS & REBECCA DUNNING? and was named in his fathers will from 1772. it appears that WILLIAM was the son or brother of ABSALOM RAWLS although this not proven. ABSALOM RAWLS appears to have been a son of WILLIAM RAWLS son of JOHN RAWLS of NANSEMOND county, VIRGINIA. WILLIAM RAWLS left his will which was probated in September court 1772. He left 1/3 of his estate to his wife REBECCA and the rest as follows: son LEVY RAWLS plantation I bought of HENERY DAWSON, Son JOSIAH RAWLS remaining part od said tract, I have sold to PHILLIP RAWLS part of a parcel of land I bought of JOHN BAKER to the reedy ground. I give to my son JONAH RAWLS the remaing part of this land from JESSE DUNNING'S line to my DAWSON line. son JOAB RAWLS my manor plantation. wife REBECCA my perishable estate, but if she marries she will recieve 1/3 and the other 2/3 shall be paid to my daughter DRUSILER RAWLS and my son HOSEA RAWLS Executors brother PHILLIP RAWLS, Wife REBECCA RAWLS Wit" SAMUEL DUNING, JOHN COOK HENRY RAWLS , brother to WILLIAM, SILAS, MORIAH & PHILLIP RAWLS died between 1772-1780 leaving these children: MARY RAWLS aged 10, ALICE RAWLS aged 8, JAMES RAWLS & EDEY RAWLS aged 6, PHILLIP RAWLS aged 5 and HENRY RAWLS aged 4. it is obvious to me that this HENRY'S wife was named CHARITY and is the sister listed in the will of PHILLIP RAWLS {brother to HENRY & WILLIAM RAWLS} dated 1794 where he left his property - half my land where I now live also cow and calf to JONES RAWLS- son of HENREY RAWLS-mare, bed, cattle, etc. to PHILLIP RAWLS the other half of my land, also cow yearling etc. to ALICE RAWLS cattle, lonning wheel, pewter basin, to my SISTER CHARITY RAWLS- bed, cattle, linning wheel for her lifetime with reversion at her death to EDAH RAWLS. Remaining estate to HENREY RAWLS Executors HENREY RAWLS and PHILIP RAWLS Wit: JOB UMPHLET, WILLIAM MORRIS, JOSIAH RAWLS On the 1790 census there were these RALLS listed REBECCA RALLS 2-0-3-0-0 {widow of WILLIAM} JONAS RALLS 1-2-2-0-0 {son of WILLIAM} JOSIAH RALLS 1-1-2-0-0 {son of WILLIAM?} JOSIAH RALLS 1-4-4-0-0 {Maybe the son of JOSIAH?} JOB RALLS 1-0-0-0-1 {son of WILLIAM} HENRY RALLS 1-2-4-0-0 { Son of HENRY & CHARITY RALLS} JONAS RALLS 1-0-0-0-0 {son of HENRY & CHARITY RALLS} PHILIP RALLS 1-0-4-0-0 { son of HENRY & CHARITY RALLS} LEVY RALLS 1-0-3-0-2 {son of WILLIAM RALLS} REBECCA RALLS 0-3-7-0-0 {Widow of WILLIAM RAWLS?} My question is WHICH JOSIAH RAWLS married FRUSANNAH ? FRUSANNAH RAWLS was living with her son JOSIAH RAWLS in 1850, her age was 89 {born about 1761} her son JOSIAH RAWLS was listed as age 50 {born circa 1800} and her daughter SILVIA HARMON {listed next door with husband PARKER HARMON was age 59 {born circa 1790} In FRUSANNAH'S will proved in NAY term 1858 listed her LIVING children JOSIAH RAWLS, JONAS RAWLS & SILVIA HARMON. Also from HERTFORD county estate records JAMES RAWLS, JONAS RAWLS, JR., JOSIAH RAWLS, JACKSON RAWLS, RANDOLP RAWLS JEREMIAH RAWLS, ABISHA RAWLS, JOHN L. RAWLS, & URIAH RAWLS were mentioned in VARIOUS records in the early 1800's I have info. on these people but some are unidentified. ABISHA RAWLS, JOHN L. RAWLS, JACKSON RAWLS need to be put in the right family group. URIAH RAWLS was from NANSEMOND county as was most likely JEREMIAH RAWLS. JAMES RAWLS married RACHEL BAKER, was he the son of JOSIAH RAWLS, SR? RANDOLPH RAWLS married CRETIA and I have a copy of his will but no children were named. who were his children? he had sons because he left his shotguns to them. any info. is truly appreciated.

Hi all, I've had a lot going on lately, but I am still here, and have the goal of first finding where I put my digital camera, and then getting that map online.

Dear Friends, I am trying to locate information on Mabel (Mabell) Askew who was listed as a widow in the 1790 Hertford Co., NC census. She was the mother of Dr. Lemuel B. Askew of Union Co., SC. Some evidence indicates that her maiden name was Brickell or that her daughter married a Brickell. In the 1790 census, Mathew Brickell and William Brickell live in the households on either side of her. A final clue is that there may be a connection to the Denton family. I would like to know the name of her husband, and what relation, if any, she is to the Brickell family. If anyone can help me figure out this difficult puzzle, I would be most appreciative. Thanks for your help.... Sincerely, Sherry Askew Ledlow

Having trouble here in Dallas, Texas concerning Jackson B. Hare (1819-1899). I know quite a lot about him and his involvement in Hertford Co. government. However there is nothing that specifically says who his first wife was other than her first name, as mentioned in J. B. Hare's will of 1899. Her name was Martha (unknown) possibly Daughtie. His second wife was Laura V. Howell. His father can only be determined by a great bulk of circumstantial evidence. His father appears to be John Hare born 1801 and shown as living with Lemuel Jernigan, household #273, Southern District, 1850 Census, Hertford Co. Lemuel Jernigan & Jackson B. Hare were both quite intimately involved in gov't & business together over a period of 20 years. Also shown in the Jernigan household is John Hare's other son Othelo Hare age 15. Next page shows Jackson B. Hare in household # 276. I know there was one more son of John Hare making three known brothers. His name was Thomas J. Hare (1830-1895). Both Othe! llo & Thomas migrated to Harris Co. Texas. Thomas Hare became Capt. of Co. K. 26th Texas Cav. CSA. Othello Hare was Pvt. Co. B, 2nd Ark Cav, CSA. If this family interests you I would love to talk to you. SRW
