I'm searching for the parents of EDWARD PAGE born June 7th,1828 in TN. Edward died Feb,16 1904 in Dade Co. GA. Edward married ALEY DAVIS before 1849. It has been brought to my attention, that Edwards father could be JOHN G. PAGE listed in the 1840 Marion Co. TN census,and that this may be the reason Edward and Aley named thier first son John. Edward and Aleys first girl was named MARGARET JANE PAGE. The following is a full list of children for Edward and Aley Page; 1 John Page b.1849 2 Margaret Jane Page b.Nov.16th,1850 3 Siney Elizabeth Page b.Aug.1854 4 Willam sr. Page b.Jan.8th,1858 5 Sarah Page b.Oct. 1859 6 Ephraim James Page b. Oct.1865 I thought by listing the names maybe someone would pick up on a naming pattern. If anyone knows who EDWARD PAGE'S parents maybe I would appreciate the boost...... Thankyou, Suzie

I was typing up some notes from my recent visit to the Salt Lake City Library and am posting it here for any who might be interested. Connie Putnam Falls Church VA In 1606 the east coast of North America was an unbroken wilderness. A few Spaniards lived at a small fortress at St. Augustine, Florida, and some French settlers lived in Nova Scotia. From Canada to Florida there was nothing but unexplored wilderness. There were only the sounds of the surf rolling upon the shore and the murmur of the wind in the trees. North America still belonged to the American Indians. Englishmen built their first successful colony in Virginia, in the same area where Sirt Walter Raleigh had earlier tried and failed. Sixteen of the 120 men who sailed in three ships from England, in 1607, never reached America. After four months crossing the Atlantic Ocean, they finally sailed into the Chesapeake Bay and up the James River to the island theylater named Jamestown. Many of these first settlers died of exposure and disease before the Spring of 1608. Only men were among the first settlers in Virginia until 1621. It was after 1630 when the first Page families were recorded among these early Englishmen to settle in Virginia. Colonel John Page first settled where Williamsburg was later built. William Page was only eighteen years old when he arrived in Virginia aboard the "Transport of London" in 1635. Then came Thomas Page; he arrived in Virginia in 1652 and was first recorded in Isle of Wight county on the 21st April 1657. Colonel John Page (b. 1627) of York county was the second of six sons of Francis Page, gentleman of Bedfont, Middlesex. He came to the Colony of Virginia in 1650 and married Alice Lucken of Essex County about 1656. Their sons were Captain Francis and Colonel Matthew Page. Colonel John Page died in 1692 and was buried in the Episcopal Church Cemetery at Williamsburg, VA. He is recorded inmore than a few documents as the first of the name in Virginia. There is some question about the identity of Colonel John Page's father. Richard Channing Moore Page, author of the Genealogy of the Page Family in Virginia suggests that John was the son of Thomas Page of Sudbury, in the Parish of Harrow County, Middlesex. Later, Charles Nash Page, author of the Page Family History and Genealogy from the Year 1257 presented evidence that this was an error. His version of this lineage is in a Genealogical Chart of the Page Family, which was also developed by Charles N. Page and published in 1917. [I have thumbnail sketches of about 15 Pages from this era if anyone is interested]
For those of you researching the PAGE Family of Lee Co., VA, the Peter and John PAGE who first appeared there in 1807 and 1809 respectively went there from Charlotte Co., VA. Both men were in the Charlotte Co. VA tax records until those dates. Peter was listed from 1796-1806 and John was listed sporadically from 1796 through 1809. John probably moved from one county to the other between the time that the Charlotte Co. and Lee Co. tax records were taken. There was a different PAGE family in the Charlotte Co., VA records, but they do not appear to be related to the ones who later went to Lee Co.. The Lee Co. people later moved to Hendricks and Morgan Cos., IN. The "other" PAGE family of Charlotte Co., VA (Richard, Nathaniel and William) left there in 1798 and moved to Anson Co., NC. Hope this helps someone. Dolores in California
The following post was on an AOL message board. I hope this chart goes through the net okay, because it offers an explanation for research problems encountered in Virginia. Here's the message I thought worth sharing: Subject: Researching Virginia Records Date: 11/8/98 2:26 PM Central Standard Time From: <A HREF="aol://3548:Kipper3003">Kipper3003</A> Message-id: <19981108152652.10851.00000412@ngol08.aol.com> This chart could be of value for clues to the early periods for other counties. Virginia County lines changed frequently between 1642 and 1721 and in the period between 1777 and 1856. This is Wise County, Virginia History. If this makes it through the web looking proper - This will help explain why some of the birth records of the early families have never been found.

I am looking for any info on my great-great grandmother Theresa PAGE. She was born about 1870. One of her daughters was born in Elizabeth City Co. I can't find her with any of the PAGE families of York Co, so I assume she was born in Elizabeth City Co. They later moved to Northampton Co,VA on the Eastern Shore. I would like to know if there were any PAGE families in Elizabeth City Co,VA around 1850 to 1880. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Cindy Fregoe
Hello to all Does anyone know anything about the large PAGE ESTATE and land located in Middlesex County, England? I am a Page but the facts of our past have been dimmed by time. I know I am related to the Pages who were large land holders since the time of Henry VIII. My late mother lived for a time in the Page "Big House" early in the thirties, but I have no idea of the extent or location of the estate. Any information would be of great help. Thank you Jonathan Roderick Carter Page

On Aug 25, 1998, Dan Page asked about Joseph H. Page of MO. Joseph Henry Page, son of Axel Heath Page Sr (b 3 Apr 1785) and Sally T. Innis, was born in 1814 in Warren Co., KY, and died on 8 May 1893 in MO. He married Elizabeth Couts (some say Coats), dau. of Francis Couts, on 7 Jan 1836. Elizabeth was born in 1819 in KY. They had children: (all born in MO) Elizabeth (b1838) Axcel (Axel) H. (b1839) Henry C. (b1840) William B. (b1842) Joseph H.

I found a reference to your Thomas Page in the History and Genealogy of the Page Family, by Charles N. Page, publ 1911. On page 59 he says,"Thomas Page was among the earliest settlers of Walpole, Massachusetts. He was born about 1715. It is presumed that he was the immigrant ancestor. He married, September 8, 1741, Sarah Robbins, at Walpole. He had six sons in the Revolutionary Army in Walpole companies: Joseph, Thomas, Charles, Asa, Ebenezer and Libbeus. His children are recorded as follows: Thomas born JUne 5, 1743; Sarah born June 16, 1745; Asa, November 28, 1747; married Susanna Rhoads: Charles, born March 27, 1750, married Hannah Witherton; Mary, born April, 1752; Ebenezer, born February 28, 1755; Joseph born March 6, 1757; Anne, born December, 1758; Libbeus, June 17, 1761." Sorry, but that is all the author says about him. Have you checked the Walpole vital records or the IGI at the FHC? Hope this helps in some small way. Good Luck. Nancy Page Richings
Please refer to http://www.genforum.com/randolph I believe the information that may answer your connection question can be found there on page three under the message title of Descend. of Tho. Randolph of Turkey Is. According to the Page lore In My family and other info I have never been able to confirm, The Jefferson/Page connections are many At least 3 that I can think of from "legend" and proven research are: 1:/ Thomas Randolph m/ Mary Page of Tuckahoe 2:/ William Randolph m/ Maria Judith Page Turkey Island 3: Anne Lee m/ John Randolph Page ( found @ http://www.wp.com/genealogy/page70a.html ) I have been told that there are many more connections depending on which tree you look through. I do hope that this information can help anyone looking for such relations. The John Page you wrote of was the John Page of "ROSWELL" in Gloucester county,Va. They were life long friends and many letters still exist in the VA. Library, etc... Good Luck , Michael D.

With all the discussion of Jefferson (and I believe enough has been said about the recent magazine article) I am reminded of the oral history in my PAGE family, that they were associated with Thomas Jefferson in some way. Several years ago I found a copy of the 1951 Jefferson biography by Schachner and it did mention a John Page. Evidently John Page was a friend of Jefferson's, and Page was appointed Commissioner of Loans for Virginia, when Page was too feeble to fulfill the duties of the office. Jefferson then proposed that the office be transferred to John's son, Francis, "for the benefit of the family". This caused some problems, and Jefferson ended up appointing Benjamin Harrison to the office. I have no proof that I am related to John Page, but I am looking for any clue I can find to my Berry Page's parentage. (I recently saw a census sheet which named Berry's son as "Berry" when I had his name as Benjamin. I am desperate enough now to think that Benj. might have been translated as "Berry", because of the similarities of those handwritten names' appearances.) Any clues would be appreciated.

Does anyone out there have a John PAGE with wife Elizabeth in Prince William Co. VA. He died ca. 1744 in that county. Children named in will were: Hannah, Elizabeth, Grace, Sarah and William. I have no other information on this family except through one of the daughters. Would love to find a Page line to connect to. Are there some Virginia PAGES out there?

Still searching for identity of Thomas PAGE of Walpole, MA! He married, lived, died and was buried in Walpole. Where did he come from? Who were his parents? Thomas was born somewhere near 1721, and married a Sarah ROBBINS of Walpole in 1741, and raised 9 children there. Thomas died in 1786, his wife in 1805. Can anyone help with even the slightest bit of factual or traditional data regarding this elusive ancestor?
