Ray Keith Hodge's book A Genealogical Study of the Larkin George Boyette Family and Descendants published in 1994 by Mr. Hodge, 206 West Wilson Street, Smithfield, NC 27577-5133 gives her father as Patrick O'Neal and her mother as Mary Rogers. She was born 1777 in Edgecombe Co. NC and died 1858 Johnston Co., NC I know a copy of this book is in the WIlson County Library Genealogical section. I am related to this family by George & Tamsey son James Boyett who moved to Wilson County in 1836. The family home is located in Johnston County and both George and Tamsey are buried near their home. Kay Roberds

Freda and Other Interested Lee/Ingram Researchers, I returned home from work and decided to pull out some old notes that I made long ago on the descendents of John Lee, Sr. Esq. At that time, I was mainly interested in John Lee Esq's descendents who went to TN. I was particularly interested in the Ingram to Lee marriages that wound up in TN and then AR and/or IL. But I also made notes on the Lee to Ingram marriages that went to AL. Among this material, I found the following notes on the children of Jeremiah Lee and Elizabeth Avera. My notes are as follows: The marriage of Jeremiah Lee to Elizabeth Avera seems well documented. Their marriage is documented by a Marriage Bond dated 18 Jan 1790 in Johnston Co NC. Jeremiah Lee was the son of Edward Lee and the grandson of John Lee, Esq. Jeremiah's Will was signed 1 May 1823 and probated 1824. It documents that Elizabeth Avera Lee was still alive and names, among other things, the following children. [Note: I just now noticed that Barnaby Ingram was one of the Executors of Jeremiah Lee's Will. Barnaba Ingram signed his Johnston Co NC Will 31 Jan 1833. His wife was Edith Altman. He names a William Ingram in his Will as a son and lists him first, but only left him $1. Why only $1?? Barnaba Ingram was the son of Shadrack Ingram and the great grandson of John Lee Sr. Esq. However, a marriage date of 28 Jan 1797 for Barney Ingram to Edith Altman, the parents of this William Ingram, seems to rule them out as the parents of Nancy Lee Johnson Ingram's husband, William Ingram. The William Ingram who married Nancy Lee Johnson is generally thought of as having been born in 1790. Does anyone know the reason for this? I assume it is from a Tombstone or Bible record.] The children seem to be named in Jeremiah Lee's Will in birth order. Other information about them is from the "Johnston County Genealogical and Historical Society Journal," 1996 and other records in the NC Archives. 1) Winifred Lee, b. about 1792. Married first David George and second Jeremiah Blackman. She is a Blackman in her father's Will. 2) Nancy Lee, b. about 1796 and died about 12 Apr 1856. Married first Littleton Johnson and second William Ingram. There is a Marriage Bond in Johnston Co NC supporting a marriage date of 20 Jan 1823. She was in Dallas Co AL by 1850. She is Nancy Ingram in her father's Will. This confirms that Bethana Lee Ingram had died prior to 20 Jan 1823. Bethana Lee Ingram's heirs inherited in her father's (John Lee, Sr) 1835-Will. [Note that I misread the Will Abstract for John Lee Sr (1835) before sending my earlier note on Bethana Lee Ingram and William Ingram and had assumed that she was still living in 1835 when her father signed his Will. Sorry for any confusion that this might have caused.] 3) Esther Lee, b. about 1790/1800. Married Thomas Allen Jr. She is Esther Allen in her father's Will. 4) Hardy Lee, b. about 1800. Married Leanna Lee, daughter of Westbrook Lee. Hardy possibly went to AL also. 5) Nicholas Lee, b. about 1804. Married Mary "Polly" Allen in 1827.. She apparently was the daughter of Gideon and Esther Johnson Allen. 6) Isaac McD Lee, b. about 1805/10. Married first Polly Fail and second Rachel _____. He was in Butler Co AL by 1840. 7) Alexander Lee, b. about 1805/10. Married Elizabeth Fail. He was in AL by 1836. 8) Henry "Harry" Lee, b. about 1810. Married Elizabeth Jane Lee. She was the daughter of Samuel Lee and Mary Rhodes Lee. He was in Wilcox Co AL by 1834. Any suggestions or corrections would be appreciated. I am very curious who the parents of William Ingram, married to Bethana Lee and then to Nancy Lee Johnson, were?? Franklin Ingram > > Gail, I have written to you directly, sending you my Ingram info.

Freda, If I were you I would not abandon the data that you have on your particular William Ingram. I would just try to make sure which William Ingram you were describing. The William Ingram about which I was writing to Gail signed his Will 21 June 1771 in Johnston Co NC. In this Will, William Ingram named: wife, Elizabeth [Surname is unknown to me]; sons Shadrack, and Joseph; daughters Hester, Polly and Elizabeth. Unfortunately, Elizabeth Ross did not include Elizabeth as a daughter in her Abstract, but Elizabeth is named as a daughter in the Original which is housed in the NC Archives. Researcher basically agree that Shadrack and Elizabeth were children from a marriage to a daughter of John Lee, Sr. Esq because John Lee, Sr. actually left land to his grandson Shadrack Ingram. Some think that Elizabeth was also named in John Lee, Sr's Will but the Will is in bad shape and not all of it is legible. Neither Elizabeth nor Shadrack inherited much from William Ingram. Joseph Ingram inherited all the land and was named Executor. The reasons for this slight of Shadrack and Elizabeth has been debated. It should be noted that the other daughters: Polly and Hester only inherited one slave each, but Polly and Hester would have inherited the land if Joseph had died without an heir--further slight of Shadrack and Elizabeth. As to your William Ingram, he married Bethanah Lee. Apparently Bethanah was still alive 14 Apr 1835 when her father signed his Will but I do not have any information about the date of her death. Some Lee researchers say that Bethanah died before 1835, but this does not make sense to me in light of the fact that she was named in her father's Will and not noted as being deceased. I have not read the Original Will and it may be different than the abstract. Her husband, William Ingram, apparently died 25 Apr 1860 in Lowndes Co AL. This William Ingram was not born until 1790. Some Lee researchers put his birth as 14 Mar 1790 so there must be some Tombstone or Bible record. Bethanah, she is Bethany Ingram in her father's Will signed 14 Apr 1835, had already inherited from her father when he signed his Will. It might be worth for a record of a Deed of Gift to Bethanah from her father. Bethanah's father was John Lee, Sr, but not the John Lee, Sr. Esq. John Lee Sr. Esq was the grandson of John Lee Sr. Esq. and the son of Edward Lee and Mary [Allen??]. There is a Rev War Pension application for John Lee, Sr., the father of Bethana, but it was rejected. He was a wagoneer and delivered supplies to the Army. He had not been in the NC or Continental Lines, but he apparently was present during the Battle of Moore' Creek Bridge in 1776. Lee researchers state that Morning or Mourning Altman was the wife of John Lee, Sr. and therefore the mother of Bethanah.

Annie, I had not received the recent message about the "JC Heritage Day", so thanks for sending it on this list. Your comments and apology are accepted and delightful. NO PROBLEM! I will respond to your questions in several following notes. I assume you are still talking about next July 4. Please remember that the Heritage Center is closed on Sunday and Monday's. I'm sure they are closed on July 4, meaning they will be open Tuesday, closed Wednesday then open the remainder of the week. I will double check their schedule. I will check on the Skinner House. I do not know anything about it. I had assumed that you might select a certain motel and use their facilities as a meeting place. One other idea would be the meeting room in the public library across from the Heritage Center. I don't think food would be allowed there though. I'll check this out. The Smithfield Herald does a special "Heritage" section in the paper every July 4. They might be interested in doing a feature on y'all out-of-towners? Also, all of the old newspapers that are available are probably at the Heritage Center, on microfilm. I don't think you can or will have to go to the newspapers to do any research. I will discuss all of these matter with Todd Johnson, director of the Heritage Center. More answers later. Also, apologies to this list manager and list members not interested in the Heritage Day. I hope it's OK to communicate this matter on the list. Warren

Posted on: Johnston Co. NC Queries Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/NC/Johnston/1868 Surname: COOPER, STEVENS, STEPHENS ------------------------- Does anyone know where I could find church records 1750-1850 regarding births, marriages and deaths of Johnson County residents? I am particularly trying to find the marriage record of a Drusellah/Drusilla STEVENS/STEPHENS to a -----COOPER ca. 1805-1810. She was the daughter of John and Mary STEVENS/STEPHENS, and had a son William S. Cooper born 1810, based upon her fathers will and his Family Bible Records. I realize the couple could have been wed in churches or by pastors in the area from which Sampson Co. was made or the surrounding counties. The marriage could have been performed by one of the Rev. COOPERs, Fleet or William, or by Rev. Edward Brown, as it appears that the Mr. Cooper in question was related to the Rev. Coopers and Miss Stevens/Stephens was related to Rev. Brown. Best Regards, Gary

And when they appear, what time frame are we looking at? Am searching for parents/siblings of Jonathan Harrison Stanley, my gggrandfather. Thanks for your help.

Franklin provided me some time ago with some information about Edward Ingram that married an Elizabeth, probably Elizabeth Jernigan (her mother was named Elizabeth Jernigan, but we do not know if this was the daughter's maiden name or was a second marriage). Does anyone else have any information about this family? (Edward and Elizabeth)? I am particularly interested in the location of the land the daughter inherited from the mother; all I know is that it was on the south side of the Neuse River adjacent to Neuse Marshes. This land was sold 12/16/1768 to Jethro Butler by Edward and Elizabeth Ingram and was recorded in court in 1762; the deed was witnessed by Joseph Langston and Isaac Williams. I would also like to know when Elizabeth Jernigan (the mother) acquired this land. Thanks. Carla Tate

Attention everyone who has expressed interest in getting together in Johnston County: I am waiting to hear some things from Warren, who may have overlooked, or never even gotten, my last message. Here is a copy: warren, you are very good with words. this is a great title and sounds much better and more inclusive than the term "family reunion". I apologize for and ask you to forget the "fuddy duddy" remark. oh, yeah, and the "old" part, too! the Skinner House has been suggested as a place for Heritage Day HQ. could you check on its availability and suitability? I am supposing that people who come from out of town would like to have a point of contact point where we can leave messages for all to see, like where we'll be staying or what time and where things that may be of interest will happen. our experience in traveling also suggests that we should have a number to leave "the folks back home" in case of emergency... some of our "folks back home" can't tell a life-and-death thing from a broken fingernail, and we don't want to tie up the entire Johnston County public safety network, especially as it is highly unlikely more than two or three of us would be staying at any one place. any plans we make along these lines will incur some costs, and all who are interested should kick in what they feel they should; people very seldom complain about that. we'll keep them posted on the costs of things, and when the money comes in, then we'll have our budget ready-made. are you in a position to have these funds mailed to you to keep and pay our few bills with? i certainly don't want you to be inconvenienced or feel you have to submit one of those damnably boring treasurer's report... so if this is agreeable, any money sent to you will be with the understanding that you owe nobody an explanation for anything, even if you use it to abscond to Tahiti! and that anything left over should be donated to the Heritage Center. is that good? after all, we're not setting up a corporation or signing a pre-nup! we're just a few somehow-connected souls looking for a place to have a drink together at the corner of I-95 and I-40! actually, Tahiti may begin to look pretty good before we pull this off! won't it be something if we all get there and realize that we all look alike or like somebody else great-grandparents? i can understand that you and other supporters of the Heritage Center are acutely aware that it is not able to handle a huge crowd of ancestor-seeking records-hunters. speaking for myself, my husband (and i sure don't get to do this very often), any kids not otherwise entangled and my mother, with or without her "train set", we can get what we're interested in at this and the family web sites, so we're more interested in just gathering and being together. i would like to see if the Smithfield Herald, the Four Oak News and other County newspapers would be willing to make their archives available in some manner. i don't expect them to make business commitments on this yet, but they may consider publishing a special edition of local history items. if they or anyone else, schools, churches, etc., have reproduceable group photos, then a local photographer might agree to take orders for reprints -- with some of the proceeds going to the church, school, etc., and of course the photographer should be compensated. this ain't a charity. it ain't even an "event".... yet! if you wish, you can give representatives of these and any other agencies my e-mail address. thank you for mentioning MS. i have had reason to be quite active with the MS society and have often heard that people from eastern north carolina, especially of celtic origin, have a higher rate of MS. of course the only people i've heard this from are people from eastern north carolina of celtic origin who have MS, but the MS Society may have some information for us, the larger group, which could be an important outcome of Johnston County Heritage Day. as we continue these discussions, other health issues could also become apparent. i hope you don't think i have discounted all the good information you have provided. it really is some great stuff, but my real interest is in the stories and the common history we share, and i take it as a great compliment that you have recognized those of us who have this interest and are willing to give us a voice, too. life is good! annie

Posted on: Johnston Co. NC Queries Forum Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/NC/Johnston/1860 Surname: Carroll, Stevenson ------------------------- I am a descendant of James Carroll and Rhoda Stevenson. The names Stevens(on), Stephens(on) were used interchangeably many times. Because Rhoda couldn't write, she had to rely on the scribe's interpretation of her name. The Connecticut line (via Ebeneezer) is totally wrong. If you look at the family makeup in terms of the dates and places, you will see that someone has made an error. Rhoda is the daughter of Solomon Stevenson Jr.

JONES/CREECH Sounds like this James Henry Jones must be related. My husband's grandfather was James Henry Jones born August 13, 1861 died March 5, 1932 in Faison Duplin Co NC. His wife was 10 years younger than he and she had twelve children. My father-in-law James Henry Jones Jr. was number 10 of the twelve. My research past James Henry Jones b 1861 is sketchy. I found it hard to believe my husband's elderly aunts weren't sure of their grandfather's name and this was 20 years ago. I have his father as Jethro Jones married to Mary Wiggins (she born abt 1826). Sounds like either James Henry Jones born 17 Feb 1827 could be great grandfather but very well could be 2great uncle. Would appreciate any help on the Jones family. As you most likely know, it is intimidating when you think of researching a common name like Jones.
