Scanned Perquimans tax lists from 1748, 1750, 1764, and 1783 are now posted at: http://perqtax.homestead.com 1813 is next in line. Harold

I have been looking at the 1800 and 1810 census for Perquimans Co., NC and have discovered that Reuben Perry may have had children with Dorcas Chappell, his second wife. These children are not mentioned in his will dated 1839. They are not mentioned in the Quaker records as Dorcas Chappell was not a Quaker. They had two girls and one boy living with them. One girl was born between 1791 and 1800, one girl and boy between 1800 and 1810. If they are his children, they would have probably died before 1839. They also had an unknown female under 26 living with them at the time of the 1810 census, the last two children may have been hers. Joy In Wisc.

I have returned home from a research trip to Raleigh with 300 more pages of archival photocopies in hand. Scans of these new tax lists will be posted to my Perquimans site in the coming months, along with the previously missing pages from 1787. And in a first for this site, lists from the early 1800s will be included. http://perqtax.homestead.com New Perquimans documents online: 1753 jurymen 1778 loyalty oath (Yeopim only) Harold Colson

Thanks, Lisa! I'm not sure which one you are speaking of but I appreciate your looking and the report.

Luella, Sorry to use the list to get a message to you, but I don't have your email address with me here. I have some grave photos for you. Also, it looks like he was married 2x. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Make international calls for as low as $.04/minute with Yahoo!

Lisa, Finding Elwood's parents may be tough. Your best bet is probably at the State Archives/Library. 1880 Perquimans Co, Fed Census, Belvidere Twp, pg. 3, 2 Jun 1880: 23/23 Smith Timothy 46 Farmer, Hannah 27 Wife Keeping House, Lane Elias Scott 6 Son, Lane Nancy 48 m-i-l At Home. Lisa, this man is almost 20 years older than Hannah - only 2 years younger than her mother. I wouldn't want to bet he's Elias' father. It's not impossible, though. The really odd thing is that he seems to have NO other children, unless they are grown and gone. You might be able to get some family information from his military pension records *if* he filed for a pension, or if Hannah did. 1890 SMITH TIMOTHY Perquimans County NC pg. 001 Belvidere Township Ed. 133, NC 1890 Veterans Schedule http://216.88.32.142/cwss/ Smith, Timothy, Union Infantry, Rank in: PVT, Rank out: PVT 1st Regiment, North Carolina Infantry, Co. E Film M391, Roll 2 DESCENDANTS OF ELWOOD LANE Generation No. 1 1. ELWOOD1 LANE was born Abt. 1825 in , , NC. He married NANCY TOATHED 1853. Child of ELWOOD LANE and NANCY TOATHED is: 2. i. HANNAH2 LANE, b. 1854. Generation No. 2 2. HANNAH2 LANE (ELWOOD1) was born 1854. She married TIMOTHY SMITH1878. Children of HANNAH LANE and TIMOTHY SMITH are: 3. i. ELIAS SCOTT3 LANE, b. February 22, 1875. ii. CORA ALETHIE SMITH, b. Aft. 1878; m. UNKNOWN BOYCE. iii. JOHN A. SMITH, b. Aft. 1878. Generation No. 3 3. ELIAS SCOTT3 LANE (HANNAH2, ELWOOD1) was born February 22, 1875. He married ANNIE HENDRICKS August 1904, daughter of THOMAS HENDRICKS and ELIZABETH BENTON. She was born 1888. Children of ELIAS LANE and ANNIE HENDRICKS are: i. ELWOOD THOMAS4 LANE. ii. AUBREY LANE. iii. CLIFFORD LANE. iv. NELLA MAE LANE. v. LLOYD SANFORD LANE. vi. AMOS WOODROW LANE. vii. ROBERT LEE LANE. viii. ANNIE ELIZABETH LANE. ix. CURTIS ELIAS LANE. x. EDNA LANE. xi. EDGAR LANE.

Timothy Smith and Hannah do end up with some other children, Cora Alethiea Smith and a John Smith. Yes, I know the ages are strange, but also, Elias (son of Tim and Hannah) married a lady 13 or 15 years younger than him. Strange. Thanks for the input though. --- "Grace A.

If you know that your people are from Pasquotank Co. you can't beat the Church of the Latter Day Saints And The Family Research Society. Both are in E. City and has a wealth of family group sheets compiled by the local people.

No, not better than the Archives and the State Genealogy library, which are in the same building. The Archives and courthouses are the best for primary research.

If you're sure of the county, you should try the county "estates divisions" records in the Archives (also filmed by LDS). Divisions of estates papers were filed to the courts when people died without wills. They are available by surname of the deceased. Often, these documents list widow, children, other relatives of the deceased - and who got what property and money. Maybe there's a Lane estate division file ca. 1830-1850s that could be for Elwood's father? See a sample Perquimans 1821 estate file at: http://perqcolson.homestead.com/files/gilbert_1821estate.jpg Harold On Sat, 14 Jul 2001, Lisa Adams wrote: > Elwood Lane born abt 1825 in NC.

Grace, Here is the outline and I hope someone can offer information because at this point I'm not sure how I will ever find who his parents are. Elwood Lane born abt 1825 in NC. Married Nancy Toathed in 1853 and they had Hannah Lane in 1854. She married Timothy Smith in 1878 which is after the birth of her son, Elias Scott Lane. It is thought Smith was the father. Elias was born Feb 22, 1875. Hannah and Timothy had two other children, Cora Alethie (married a Boyce) and John A. Smith. According to my grandfather, Amos Lane, he thought John Smith was mentally challenged. Anyway, Elias married Annie Hendricks in August, 1904. Annie is the daughter of Thomas Hendricks and Elizabeth Benton. Annie and Elias had 11 children (she was born in 1888, quite a bit younger than Elias) Elwood Thomas, Aubrey, Clifford, Nella Mae, Lloyd Sanford, Amos Wodrow, Robert Lee, Annie Elizabeth, Curtis Elias, Edna and Edgar. Some of these children are alive now living in Chesapeake, but either do not know anything or they REFUSE to admit they know anything. My dad and aunt say that Annie called Elias Mr. Lane and that she was ashamed of the fact he was born prior to the marriage. Who knows, not me, I can't find the answers, do you have them? If you could offer any advise on how else I might find his parents. My father said the Lane line was poor (and I have verified this with a Perquimans County Historian/Genealogist that has written things for the archives) so wills are not going to be an option. Any ideas anyone has, I will be flying to NC in 2 weeks and if I can find his parents that will make all the difference in my trip. --- "Grace A.

Better than the archives?
