There is a James T Gardner in Martin Co NC in 1880, but is it the right one?? Then in 1910 his name is Garner without the D. Did your Carlie Lester have a brother James Grover? I have a James T Gardner born Nov 1860, married to Eliza Jane Brown, whose son James Grover married Sallie E J Brady of Moore Co NC, my 4th cousin. I am inclined to think that your James Taylor Gardner belongs either to the Moore or the Randolph Gardner/Garners.... they married Bradys a LOT..... but I can't find him in any of my Gardner families YET. The Moore Co Garners kept the original spelling. Most of the Randolph ones changed to GarDner about 1800. Then there was another, unrelated, Garner family in Randolph.......

Jo I wonder what relation William Wilkerson was to your Wilkerson . My family also from same area of Randolph near the Chatham Line and William Wilkerson has on a couple of occasions shown up in records for ancestors of mine in the late 1700's I believe , he also shows up at estate sale circa 1800 for my ancestor William Poe . others in area were Rains , Moffitt, Grimes , Graves ,Bray as wel as many others all lived in area of Brush creek , If you stumble on any Poe records while researching yours I would love it if you would keep me in mind ,.Patricia Perkins

I can tell the answer re the birth records. North Carolina only began recording birth records in 1913. There are a few "belated" birth records on file but these are usually because someone needed one later in life to join the service or get SS, etc. so there are none that would reach back to the early 1800s. As for the marriage record, I will check the marriage bonds and see and get back to you. I am starting on marriage bonds now but it will take me some time to transcribe them from the old microfiche but I can look this up and will let you know.

Far as I know, the last record of William III was in the 1800 census. Several of the daughters of William (d.1805) went to Indiana, so I have wondered if his two sons that seem to have disappeared at about the same time didn't go out there, as well. William, Jr. (d.1805) was a brother of Robert (d.1820) who married Anne Walker. So far, what I have for the children of William (d.1805) and his wife Lydia (probably Elswick) are: 1. Mary Field (c.1760-1846) m. Pierce Noland and went to Georgia in 1793, and then to Wilkinson Co., Mississippi c. 1803. 2. Lydia Field (1762-1852) m. Richard Lewis and went to Floyd Co., Indiana about 1810. 3. Jeremiah Field (c.1764-1830) m. Eleanor Sherwood, and remained in Randolph Co., NC, my line. 4. Robert Field, born c.1765/1769, based upon his placement in the list of children in his father's will. Last record I have for him is in the 1790 census or Surry Co., NC. 5. Jane Field (c.1769-1859) m. Jesse Stroud, went to Harrison Co., Indiana around 1805. 6. William Field, born c.1770/1772, based on placement in will. m. Ann, last record is 1800 census of Randolph. 7. Rebecca Field (c.1772/3-1852/5) m. Hugh Sherwood, went to Washington Co., Indiana around 1817. 8. Tabitha Field (c.1775-aft.1860) m. Thomas Sherwood Kirkman, remained in Randolph Co.

Randolph County, NC listers: I recall a book entitled 'Johnsons and Their Kin' and wondered if there was any mention of Jefferson JOHNSON and his mother Penina (Pennine) in this book. I strongly suspect that Pennine was linked to Randolph County and that is the reason I am writing here. So, does anyone know what happened to the family of Jefferson Johnston? They are shown on the 1860, 1870, and 1880 censuses, but all traces of this family seem to disappear in 1900 and thereafter. I have attempted to reconstruct this family's record as follows below. I could not extract any North Carolina marriages for Alamance County on the statewide database for the periods I needed. Jefferson JOHNSON or Jefferson JOHNSON was born about 1832. He was listed on the 1850 Census at age 18, in Chatham County, NC. He was listed on the 1860 Census at age 24, also in Chatham County, NC. He was listed on the 1870 Census at age 41 in Alamance County, NC. He is not listed with his family in 1880, however, his wife Elizabeth is listed at age 45, also in Alamance County. Although his 2nd oldest daughter Sarah is listed in 1880, his three oldest children, William, Martha, and James have all left home and are still to be found elsewhere...please help! Jefferson's mother was named Penina or Pennine. She may possibly be a WALL or WALLS but this is not proved. Pennine was born about 1794 in North Carolina with father born Virginia and mother born NC. Regarding Jefferson's wife, Elizabeth, maiden name unknown. Jefferson and Elizabeth married about 1856. I don't have a record of their marriage because Alamance County marriages are not listed in the statewide index for North CArolina Marriages. If somebody has the Alamance County index to marriages, please point me in that direction - THANKS. Children of JEFFERSON JOHNSON and ELIZABETH ___?____ are: i. WILLIAM3 JOHNSON, b. 1857. ii. MARTHA JOHNSON, b. 1859. iii. JAMES JOHNSON, b. 1860. iv. SARAH JOHNSON, b. 1862. v. SUSANNA DORA JOHNSON, b. 1864. vi. ROBERT WELDON JOHNSON, b. 1868. vii. NEWBY JOHNSON, b. Abt. Jan 1870. viii. JOHN JOHNSON, b. 1873.

I base this belief on the fact that a Thomas WALL, who married Frances LAMB in 1812 Randolph County, NC was also born in Virginia and also one of Samuel's surviving daughters, aged in her 80's, reported in 1880 that her father was born in Virginia and mother NC.

Surnames: WALL WALLS Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/kUB.2ACE/2021.1.4.1 Message Board Post: Thanks. I think since Wiley WALL and Jereter were both in Randolph County NC from childhood times with the exception of being in Guilford County, NC during the 1840 census, they were probably back in Randolph County NC when Brazilla was born. Brazilla is shown as age 5 in 1850. His descendants did not change the spelling of his middle name, so perhaps GARNER represents a kind of time capsule from the days when James Garner lived. I will check the 1830 and 1840 censuses to see where in relation to the WALL/WALLS residence that your James Garner lived. My Wiley WALL, his son Josiah, and Josiah's son William Wall from the mid 1840's to the 1880's, lived in the area of New Salem, which is now part of Randleman and just south of Level Cross. I have GARDNERs in my ancestry from Nantucket and I recall that there was a Barzillai GARDNER in the area, but I was never convinced that this was the source of the GARNER name in Brazilla's name. My family called him "Uncle B.G." and my dad had heard of him although never had met him since B.G. died too early for him to meet my dad. Wiley WALL inherited 125 acres from his father Samuel WALL when Samuel died in 1823. Jesse WALL got the rest of the land next to Wiley's, also about 125 acres. This land was on Deep River, I believe. I have never been able to figure out exactly where it was, but thought from the William WALL land described in the 1883 and 1888 deeds of sa! le that this land was just south of Deep River next to where old Greensboro Road crossed over Deep River. Where was James Garner in relation to this area of Randolph County? Thanks, Tim

My 4xgreat grandfather James Garner shows the GARDNER spelling in his estate papers of 1843. None of these Garner families are related to the Nantucket Gardners.

I am not familiar with the name GARNER, but I have studied a little on a Barzilla GARDNER/GARDINER. One Barzilla GARDNER, a Quaker, came from Nantucket MM to New Garden MM, in Guilford Co. NC. Barzilla was a son of Stephen and Jemima Gardner, and married Jemima Macy in 1774 [per New Garden min. in Hinshaw's ENCY. OF AM. GENEALOGY.] Later, I find a Barzilla GARDINER in Mecklenburg Co., and working as a silversmith. I have a coin silver spoon with this Barzilla GARDINER's hallmark, and it is engraved with the name RUSSELL. I have learned that one Barzilla GARDNER (of Guilford Co.) removed here from Nantucket with several Quaker families, among them RUSSELL'S, who also settled in Randolph Co.-Do you think this could possibly be the same man? Weren't your WALLS from the northern part of Randolph, not far from the Guilford-New Garden, area? I would like to know if Barzilla GARDNER of Guilford is the same Barzilla GARDINER (spelled with an "i" in the middle) of Mecklenburg Co., NC.

My aim is to gain a set of facts that will improve my understanding of my own ancestors who I believe also come from this Linthicum/Sherwood marriage. If the information below reveals any connection to any readers, I would appreciate hearing from you. One of the challenges in tracing Richard and Mary’s descendents involves the “Richards” that I find later not having quite enough facts to draw too many conclusions We know that Richard and Mary had a son Richard from Matilda Badger’s book. If he was born in Maryland as family lore goes and obviously before his mother died, he had to be born before 1790. These are all the facts I am aware of. The “hash” marks on early Guilford County, NC censuses for the senior Richard Linthicum’s household do little to help us other than indicate he had one son born 1774 or after. Daniel is head of his own household in this same census. Other records indicate that Richard’s brother, Thomas, was born about 1784; so……. I don’t really know what happened to this Richard. Matilda also indicated that Richard & Mary’s son, Daniel, had a son named Richard and that he went to Kentucky. On Nov 2, 1831, Guilford Co., NC marriage records show Richard O. Linthicum marrying Mary Work. This is an aside from the major goal of this query but I have never seen any reference to Daniel’s wife. There are many Osments, Ozments, and Osburns in Guilford Co. and I’m just wondering if this “O” is a clue to Richard’s mother’s maiden name. 1850 Census for Campbell Co., KY District 2: Richard Linticomb 51 (abt 1799) born NC, wife Elizabeth 50 (abt 1800) born NC, child Margaret, 4 born KY. There is a Stull family living with them. 1860 Census for Campbell Co., KY, Grant’s Lick Post Office: R. O. Linthicum 29 (abt 1831), wife Mary 28 (abt 1832) and daughter Mary 3 (abt 1857) are listed. All are shown as born KY. 1870 Census for Campbell Co., Grant’s Lick Pct.: Richard Linthacum (transcribed as Smithham by Ancestry.com) 71 (abt 1799) born NC, wife Elizabeth 61? (abt 1809) born NC. 1880 Census for Gubser, Campbell Co.,: Richard Linthacom 79 (abt 1801) Minister born NC, parents born NC, wife Elizabeth 67 (abt 1813) born VA, parents born VA. There is a boarder/domestic servant Carrick Francis female 19 living with them. These are all the records I have been able to find within Ancestry.com for these “Richards”. There are just enough contradictions here to make me hesitant to make too many conclusions. If any reader has or finds additional information to remove these doubts or add new facts, I would be most happy to have the information. Of course, I would be happy to share any other information I have on this and associated families. Terry L. Linthicum Aka : fayrankin@juno.com
