Josh, I have that Joseph Waller was married first to Maria Roy, second to Matilda Buckner, and third to Rebecca Williamson. I don't have any further information regarding the first two wives. Please let me know about the Millard F. Waller reunion when the time comes. I'd be interested in attending. Carla, what source information do you have for John Waller as the father of Joseph Waller? It seems that Joseph's father was either John, Nathaniel, or Benjamin, but no one seems to have any definitive documentation to determine which one.

My records show that Haywood Waller was the son of Joseph Waller and Rebecca Williamson. Rebecca was Joseph's third wife. The only wife I know of for Haywood was Charlotte Grady.

Does the name Russell Rigby ring a bell with anyone as being from our area ca 1790 or may early 1800's? Thanks. Martha

I have both books "Coastal Plain and Fancy" and "Hertiage of Lenoir County. I have enjoyed them both very much. It was worth every cent I sent. Always glad to hear there willbe new ones to offer. June

Email me and we can talk ([email protected]). Are you still living in the area? I live in new bern nc, but still have family on the original family land in woodington near kinston and could show you where joseph, haywood and others are buried sometime. I agree with what you wrote except we find no info of haywood being married to anyone other than rebecca williamson. By the way, we have a family reunion for wallers coming from Haywood's son Millard F waller, with the next one scheduled around may of 2005 at the methodist church there in woodington if you are interested.

Hi, I have Heritage of Lenoir Co. book. In it it list Walter Kennedy married Elizabeth Hodges daughter of Edward Hodges [died 1820] and his wife Catherine [died about 1830]. Edward and Catherine had five children: James Arendell Hodges born 1808, Richard Hodges (known as Uncle Dickie) Nancy Hodges Mary Hodges (aka: Polly) Elizabeth Hodges who married Walter Kennedy. It also mentioned a Walter Kennedy who married Sarah (Sally) Wooten born 1819, Lenoir Co. Was this his first or second wife? I am not related, just passing on information I had on hand. Have a nice day. JUNE
