Joshua Pennell manumitted his slaves by his will, and his nephew, Joshua Winkler, as executor, took them to <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" />Kansas and set them free. Many still remember their passage through Boone just prior to the Civil War. Joshua Winkler and Joshua Pennell had lived in Wilkes County, but Winkler soon after his return from Kansas bought land in Watauga and removed to this county, where he died. Among other valuable properties accquired by him wa sthe old Noah Mast farm near St. Jude post office, afterwards conveying one-half thereof to his son, William F. Winkler. <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /> JOSHUA PENNELL. In 1859 or 1860, Joshua Pennell of Wilkes left a willsetting all his slaves free, and providing for their removal to a FreeState, and their support there until they could raise a crop. Pennell wasa bachelor. Joshua Winkler was made executor, and old citizens of Booneremember seeing him and the negroes pass through that town one brightSabbath morning on their way to Kansas. Henry C.

Joshua Pennell was the son of Benjamin and Elizabeth Judd Pennell. When he died he requested that his slaves be freed and taken to a emanciapted place in the west his Nephew who was a Winkler honored these wishes. Frm the 1860 census of Kansas and the 1850 slave shedule of Wilkes Nc it appears that the eldest slave was a Matriarch named Nancy and the rest were her offspring . I believe Nancy was a gift to Joshua by his Judd Grandfather and I also belive Joshua may have been the Father of her Offspring, Can anyone confirm how Joshua Pennell came to own his slaves???

Grandfather Barlow made a statement before he left Nc that he was leaving his papers asscoaietd with his Churches with his son n law who was a Carlton. To my knowledge these papers have never surfaced but are believed to ahve remained with the Carltons in Wilkes NC.

In several on line records Jonathan Wall (of Rowland Judd's district Wilkes Nc early census 1787) is listed as the descendant of John Wall of Charles city county and old Surry County Virginia . Some of Johns grandson migrated to Penn and Maryland and then back to virginia in subsequent generations. I believe this is the same John Wall who imported William Pinion in 1643 whom I believe to be the ancestor of the Nc Pennell/Pinions. It appears through my research that Jonathan Wall and Thomas Pinion may have made a similar migration from Culpepper county Virginia to Surry and later Wilkes NC. Does anyone know exactly when Jonathan Wall shows up in the Wilkes NC records.

I cannot relate to this. However, in your search, do you find anything relating to "Cook?" I am especially interested in an early "Daniel Cook." This might be in SC, NC, or GA. Robbie Cook Purser RobbiePurser@aol.com

I'll do some work on this in ancestry.com and see what is there Rae Williams www.grannyandpopacaldwell.com

Jeanie and Gail. If you will contact MaryBradford47@adelphia.net she can help you on these families. She sent the following email to me after I forwarded your email to her. Nina, think that is the Parlier cemetary. Frank and Carolyn Parlier know all about it. I met a man at the museum Sat. who is a Gilwreath. He knows all about the Gilreaths. I heard someone mention the Hayes but I can't remember who was talking about him. I can put Jeannie in touch with some people that can help her. Mary Bohlen Bradford Hope this helps you both.

This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: SPARKS Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/xUB.2ACE/4320 Message Board Post: Hardy Sparks served in the War of 1812. Any info appreciated on his war service.(war, pension records, regiment, etc.)

Greetings, For some time I (and others) have been researching the ancestry of one Jonathan T Jones and his wife Lucinda (maiden name unknown), and I have just learned that the reason our searches for records relating to this man may have been fruitless is that our ancestor might possibly have committed a murder (in Virginia or North Carolina) and fled to Kentucky. His true surname may have been Spicer. What we know for certain is that Jonathan T Jones was born between (about) 1790 and 1815 - probably in Virginia or North Carolina. He first appears in SE Kentucky records in 1840, and seems to have settled on Lost Creek in Perry County with his wife Lucinda (maiden name unknown) between 1835 and 1839. Their children included Elizabeth (who early records suggests was born in Virginia), Andrew Borkin, Delitha, Samantha, and William. The couple remained in SE Kentucky for the rest of their lives and Jonathan is rumored to have had affairs with other women, and fathered children out of wedlock (I'm descended from two of his legitimate children). As I said, more than one researcher has been looking into the parentage and ancestry of Jonathan T Jones for a number of years, and have yet to turn up a birth record for him. Victor T Jones has researched this question exhaustively and the only further clue he has come across is a later census record (which must be for the state rather than national census) suggesting Jonathan T Jones had been born in Lee County Virginia. And the only Jonathan T Jones born in Lee County Virginia at the appropriate time (or anywhere in Virginia as far as we can tell) was the son of Stephen Jones and either Mary Parsons or Minerva Tipton. That Jonathan T Jones married a Margaret Duff and went into Missouri in the 1840s or 1850s; he never lived in Kentucky. Recently though one of my cousins (through the Joneses) related a story told to her by the sister-in-law of her Jones grandfather. She apparently said that Jonathan T Jones was actually Jonathan (or John) Spicer, and that he had killed a man (in Lousiana), married a part or full blood indian girl named Lucinda (which would explain why there is no record of her maiden name), and fled to Kentucky. This woman said that John Spicer was a wealthy operator of grist mills, and that his kin (where he had come from) may have been in the business as well. The story has the air of myth, but the ring of truth. As it happens, my ancestor William Begley shot a man (apparently for lying about him in court) then fled to Kentucky, and married a part-Cherokee girl named Winnie Sizemore (the daughter of a part-Cherokee prize fighter named George Sizemore). In any event, I'd be interested to hear if any of the Wilkes County Spicers might have an insight into this question. At least one if not more Wilkes County, NC Spicer lines went into southeast Kentucky (Breathitt County, which is next door to Perry County), and the possibility that our JT Jones may have been a Spicer from NC is highly speculative, but the best lead I have now. Thanks. Best regards, Kenneth ____________________________________________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Everyone is raving about the all-new Yahoo!

Jeanie, I know it has been a few months since you sent this note, but were you able to find out any more about this cemetery? I would be most interested since my ancestors lived near there - the Gilreaths, Hendrens, and Parliers. Have you spoken to a man named Don Hayes? He lives near there and is supposedly very knowledgeable about the area. Also, a cousin of my mom, Charlie Estep, lives on Brushy Mountain Road and might be of some help. If you talk to him, please tell him that Rebecca Gilreath's daughter sent you. Thanks!
