I also very much appreciate all that King Rolla has done for Queen Research including his digesting of YDNA statistical/genetic data and helping us understand what in the wide world of sports it's all about. In the months and years to come it would be well to find ways to bring in samples representing other "old" Queen lineages not yet identified as to parentage. I'm thinking of Meredith Queen (b. ca 1815) of the Rutherford County area and "old" Richard Queen. Who are some of the other early Queens that are not yet linked to a YDNA sample? Let's build a list and see what we can come up with. Gene

Fortunately we had a "telephone protection" device from the local tele company. 5/05/05 was a very important day--and I missed it: I understand it was Rolla Queen's Birthday and I was going to suggest a Hap/Birth/ Tnk U to the creator of our Queen Website.

Don, I think I can point out one error in the information (below) which you posted on May 1, 2005. It is this statement: +Moses was born 1781 and married Jane Weedon The source of this statement is uncertain, but this is the SAME marriage bond that actually belongs to Meredith/Maraday Queen and Jane NEWTON. I don't believe you'll find a marriage bond or other record of any Moses Queen to a Jane Weedon. I could be wrong on this, but I'm willing to bet that I'm not.

Queen Guys, Yes, I know we females were left out of the YDNA tests, but do us a favor and post your grandMOTHERS, not only your grandfathers when you give your ancestor charts. Happy Mother's Day, Sheila

I didn't want to respond off list as this information may be helpful to someone else: I don't know what the "H" stands for in George H. Queen's name. I have not found reference to it in any documents I have seen. I don't know of a marriage / relationship between George H. Queen and Sarah Pruit Cook. Will you share your information regarding this relationship? Children of George H. and Fanny Peeler (that I know of) are Cicero Queen, Frankie (Sis) Queen and Cynthia Queen. Children of Cicero and Martha Glascoe are George Ivey, Bessie, Zero, Essie, Pearl, May and Docie. Cicero may have had several wives - although I only have documentation of one. If you have other information regarding this group of Queen's, please let me know. Hope this information helps. ________________________________ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thu 5/5/2005 11:49 AM To: Ann Russell Subject: Re: [QUEEN] YDNA Lineage - Meredith Queen 1775 Super star.

Hi cousins A DNA roll call - here we go. At the bottom of the email are the 'bare facts' as I know them. And yes there are spots that need to be filled in. I've only listed Hampton and children. My DNA Line - Hampton, William H., John H., Father, and then my brother. Hampton comes in with the 37 proposed baseline of Old William. Other tidbits I can toss in. Hampton born North Carolina, goes to Wayne County Indiana, gets married there 1820, moves around Indiana abit, and then goes to Madison County Iowa. Based on the research I've received the family story is that he opposed slavery. His home in Indiana and maybe in Iowa was a half-way house for the underground. What else - Most of my data is from a document I received via a Queen List-mate - prepared by Marjorie Queen, some of which I've verified some I have not. (Kathy if you see anything wrong feel free to jump in.) In her booklet she lists Hampton as being born in Rutherford County, NC, and uses as a source "Mrs. Minta May Queen Armitage". (A descendant of the Hogan Queen listed below.) No way to know if this was family lore, or fact. His wife Hannah Williams was born about 1800 in Jefferson County Tennessee. They supposedly headed from Tennessee to Wayne County Indiana around 1816 according to a county history. Hannah's father was a Quaker, but his wife Jane Woodward was not.

James Queen and Sarah Jones are my gggrandparents, the information given to us by our aunt, (the granddaughter of James and Sarah). She told my sister that her grandmother was a Jones and she believed her father was William Jones. William Jones and Alfred Jones are mentioned in the will of James Queen. I found somewhere years ago, but I did not keep the info, there was a James Queen and Sarah Ferguson, but they were out of Lincolnton County. Nancy
