My husbands ancestress was Elizabeth Pike , a Quaker, who married Alexander Stuart May 17, 1759 in Orange Co., NC Her mother was an Overman. She had a son John Stuart Jan 30 1764 who married Elizabeth Dixon. After Alex died she married John Doane who had been married to Ruth Dixon. Our line is the same one as yours. Ruth Dixon's parents were Thomas Dixon and Hannah Hadley from Pennsylvania. It is amusing for my mother was an Allen from Canada and my grandfather Allen was from Northern Ireland. I have done a good bit on Elizabeth Pike's ancestry.

I could not find much on Jacob Overman, nothing in Hinshaw's Encyclopedia of Quaker Genealogy, but did find a possible set of parents for him in the 1850 census of Upper Regiment, Chatham Co. North Carolina. There is a William Overman, age 46 and wife Barbara, age 50, with children Polly (age 24), Jacob (age 22), William & David (age 20), Emanual (age 17) & Eveline (age 11). As for Job Stuart, the census information matches up pretty well with Job Stuart, born 10m-23-1825, a son of Alexander Stuart and Ann Stout, according to the Encyclopedia of American Quaker Genealogy. Alexander Stuart's parents were John Stuart & Elizabeth Dixon. Ann Stout's parents were Peter Stout and Charity Barnes. More information is available if needed. My husband's 4gg grandparents were John Stuart & Elizabeth Dixon. Hope this helps.
