Parents unknown. They are both in my family but their connection is unknown. For those of you who question the name Queen let me add what I know. The family passed down the information that we were originally McQueen. Henry Queen and his sister wrote about the Queens of Maryland. His sister visited England and found out that is not a name used in England. I have an article posted on my web site about Samuel Queen if you care to read it.

Two more census listings for Signoria/Sarrah; Looks like that 1900 listing has a 10 year error in her age. The 1910 and 1920 listings are consistent with the earlier ones. 1910 census, Canada twp, Jackson Co., NC (SD 211 Ed 83 sheet 1B) # 15/15 Wood James C. head M W 64 m. 30 yrs. b.

That 1880 census is interesting. How about this 1900 census? Maybe Signoria's name is really Sarrah? and there seems to be a 10 year discrepancy in her age? Andrew and Jane are two doors down, 20 years older.

Family, help me out. I have Asque Carson Queen (Son of Benjamin Nicholson Queen) md to Dorcas Ingabo Wood (daughter of Signora Alceste Queen who is also the daughter of Benjamin Nicholson Queen). There was either a major age difference or I have my data wrong. Someone set me straight. I also have an incomplete list of children of Rev. Asque Carson Queen. Does someone have the complete family.

The folks on rootsweb.com worldconnect project seem to be unanimous that Dorcas' parents were Andrew Jackson Wood and Jane W. Henderson.

I am a descendant of Meredith Queen and Sarah (Sally) Mode. My gr gr grandmother, Cynthia Ann Queen White was their daughter. Is the DNA test only performed on the Male descendants. Cynthia had a brother, William Monroe Queen, b. 1865. William has a grandson still living. Would he be a good candidate for the DNA test for Meredith's line? I am not sure if he would be willing to participate, but I can ask if anyone thinks that it would be beneficial. I noticed on the Test Results that the one listed for Meredith Queen, born 1823 is unconfirmed. Is this the Meredith who was married to Sarah Mode and died in late 1865.

Hate to leave you with a teaser, but the most recent results reflect a 24/25 marker match between another ancestor of Francis Queen and myself. Since the other participant and I can trace back to a known common ancestor, in this case, our 3rd great-grandfather, David Queen, it is almost certain now that Francis and his descendants represent a distinct group of Queens and are not related at all to the other confirmed Queen groups. There is always an outside chance that David, himself, could be the result of an extra-marital event and that he does not reflect Francis' YDNA profile. But we are playing the odds here, and the documents and the odds say this is highly unlikely. So for the Francis Queen descendants, it remains for us to find at least one male donor from the other two sons of Francis Queen to nail this down for sure. And then there is the issue of Francis himself. But we are hot on the scent. But speaking honestly, I feared the worst. So now I rest easier and can carry the perfumed scent of respectibility for a little while till we find the next donor. Therefore I hereby proclaim that Group 3 Queens, descended from Francis, Iredell County, NC, from Ireland, sometime in the 1700s, is a Confirmed and distinct Group. Give me a couple of weeks to enjoy before someone bursts my bubble. So while Gene is off resting, I'll take over the battle cry - Can someone help me find Francis' pa?!

Sharon, The YDNA test for the Queen DNA study can only be taken by a male descendant in this case, a male descendant of Meredith Queen. The male descendant logically should carry the last name Queen and be able to trace from Queen father to Queen grandfather, to Queen great-great grandfather up the line back to the distant Queen progenitor. As you describe it, William Queens grandson would be an excellent candidate for the DNA test, if he carries the male Queen name and therefore the male Queen YDNA. We currently have donors tracing back to two different Meredith Queens in our study. Based on the available informatino, I can't tell which one would be the stronger candidate for a possible match. Perhaps some of the Queen list participants can help us with that. However, I would recommend that you go ahead and try to get you male Queen relative to participate in the study. The more participants we have and the more DNA detail we have for various lines of descent, the easier the becomes to unravel the mysteries and follow the leads to an accurate depiction of descent from a common male ancestor. The reason the second Meredith is listed as Unconfirmed is that we have no other matches of the DNA sequence and lack evidence to confirm him as a separate Queen lineage, and lack information to suggest the participant's ancestry my be affected by some event, such as adoption, where the name is given, but the male YDNA would reflect the natural, not the adoptive Queen father. Only more DNA samples will help us answer these questions.

Queen (born Francis Harrington Quinn in about 1843) who lived in Boston from about 1870 to 1925. He was married to Caroline Caldwell (born in Nova Scotia in about 1845). Their children were Frank or Franklin (but born Francis H in 1875), Ethel Mae (b. 1873), Jane Arthur Edna (b. 1878 and went by Edna), Eustace Alexander (b. 1880), and Ruby Florence (b. 1882.) One child was known as Bertie who may have been Edna. One child died. Frank the younger married Sarah Thompson and had a child Ethel. Ethel married Hance Hamilton. Edna married a Watkins and then Frederick Harms. Eustace married Josephine Haberlin. And Ruby married Richard Evans and then Pearl Gyger. I am especially interested in contacting the descendants of Edna, but of course all information would be helpful

Hi Don Thanks for the response. As I read your response I was amazed at some of the names in it. My mother's name was GEORGIA, then there is a Hoke, Annie, Ruby, Dren Willie (Drew Willie), Josie, Jim (Jimmy my name) and Craton. The brother you spoke of Joe A. is in fact I believe Joseph B. Queen. Joseph B. Queen is my GG Grandfather. Joseph is buried here in Walton Co. GA. in the Queen Cemetery on Queen Cemetery Rd. Joseph had set land aside for this cemetery.
