Hi Everyone, My name is Denise Chandler-Wood and I want you to know how much I appreciate this list! My folks wondered back and forth between Stokes, Surry, and Forsyth and that is alot of traveling! I have being trying to track down my father's folks (Chandler-descendants of Edmond/Isaac/Richard Lee/Isaac Breckenridge/Isaac Jackson) and his maternal grandparents (SMITH-William/Frances Tilley-wife/Etta P.) One of my grandmother's (Etta) sister's married a Clifton Hanks. Someone said they could do a lookup and I am looking for the 1870 census of Stokes for a Payne guy who "gave away" a "Frances" who had a birthdate of 1859. Frances Tilley's mother (on her marriage certificate to William Smith of 1893 in Surry County lists a "Sally Tilly" as her mother. I can find no Tilley's in the areas there who had a Frances or a Sally as a relative. William was married to a "Sarah" and is on the Surry census with her til she died and William married Frances who was a neighbor. And he actually filed a Bastardy Bond for her in 1873 in Alleghany Co. She was 12 and he was 25. Is there someone out there who knows anyone that could be connected to this family. William and Frances had many children together before marriage and a few after marriage. He was in the Civil War as well. I also believe there is Melungeon connection here somewhere. The child born in Alleghancy County was "Warrick Winfield Tilley" and I did obtain some delayed birth certificates for four of his children in the Surry records. He was the only child with her maiden name. Also there is some story about one of the Smith girls child died and one of Warrick's children was on trial for it?????? Thanks and looking forward to hearing some stories.
