    1. Reply to William Lewis Queen Sr.
    2. The 1790 and 1800 Rutherford Co., NC census records give William Lewis Queen as having 9 children on the 1790, 12 on the 1800 counting Meredith who marries in 1797. There are 3 in 1810 one male and 2 females and appears wife has died these are the ages to be the 3 born after 1790 census. On the 1820 Rutherford census William Lewis Queen is living one household apart from "Blind John Jones" and there is evidence that these families had a very close relationship. Old William Queen was not in Rutherford for the 1790 Census, He signs papers in Randolph Co., NC giving son William in Rutherford County, NC power of attorney. He returns on the 1800 Census with one male and one female age 45 and above. Old William dies between 1800 census and July 1801 when Stephen Hogue, Administrator of estate of William Queen deceased returns inventory. There are children unaccounted for???? Who has all twelve accounted for??? Where is there a document that gives any evidence that William Lewis Queens wife was Margaret, think it has been pretty much decided that there is no documented evidence of her surname being Meredith. There is no definitive proof that Olive Vine's last name was Queen, or that she was the daughter of William Lewis Queen. However, there is strong circumstantial evidence that leads to that conclusion. Just because the name Olive Vine doesn't appear in someone's "file" as a daughter of William Lewis Queen does not necessarily mean that she is not his daughter. The census records indicate that there were at least twelve children of William Lewis Queen, some of whom have not been fully accounted for. There is very little documentation as to the existence of all children of William Lewis Queen. On the 1790 Rutherford Co., NC census William Queen has 1 male under 16, 4 males over 16, and 6 females. He is the only person with the "Queen" surname in Rutherford County. By 1800, William has 1-Male under 10; 3-Males (16-26); 1-Male over 45; 2-Females (under 10); 3-Female (10-16); 2-Female (16-26); 1-Female (26-45). This census documentation confirms that William Lewis Queen had at least 12 children. Olive Vine Queen would conform to the number of females listed on these two census. Additionally, on the 1820 Rutherford Co., NC census, Page 390, William Queen is shown living one household away from Olive Vine's father in law, "Blind John Jones." The name "Olive, Olive Vine, and Olivina runs through out the Queen and Jones family lines. Edward Jones sister, Ursula, who married James H. Queen, known son of William Lewis Queen, named a daughter Olive Vine. William Lewis Queen, Jr. and Samuel Queen also named daughters "Olive Vine." Mary Ann Queen, who married Robert Hemphill, named a daughter "Olive Vine Hemphill." Rebecca Queen, who married Robert Jones, son of "Blind John Jones", named a daughter "Olivine." The Olive name is unusual for that time and even today, not like the obligatory Sarah, Mary and Elizabeth that filled every family line. 1850 US Census, Haywood Co., NC; Page 191: Edward Jones with wife Ollif Vine age 61.

Anyone else with strong ideas pointing in this direction? I also don't have Olive Vine with this groupas a child or Olive as a wife. Also is the spouse of James-Sarah Ferguson Jones really the daughter John the blind one or the daughter of Thomas Ferguson as I have her listed. Was she married once before and that is where she became Jones from? I had Samuel listed as one of the children once but removed it becasue of doubt. Do I put him back in the family. I do have a Samuel as a sibling for William Queen Sr. md to Dicey Rolls. Does anyone know about the queen without a name ( I assume it was an infant that died-was it male or female? Tell me the clsoe relationship with the Queen family and John "the Blind One" Jones. How many married into his family. Lots of questions. I need lots of answers This is the greatest family -I loe being a part of all of you Wendy

    1. Re: [QUEEN] Exciting and Discouraging (?) DNA Results
    2. Diann
    3. Thanks Gene. Diann 2nd Officer Athens Chapter # 439 ----- Original Message ----- From: "O Eugene Queen" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, May 02, 2005 1:12 AM Subject: [QUEEN] Exciting and Discouraging (?) DNA Results We've learned much since biting into the YDNA project. It remains my opinion that, in total, it has been a resounding success. My reading of the results leads me to the following tentative conclusions: 1. About 19 donors descend in some way from "old" William Queen of ca 1716-20. 2. Three donors appear to descend from the Charles Queen of VA...and this Charles may very well have been a Quinn as evidenced by the perfect match at 12 markers with David Quinn of Northern Ireland. From a study of the Stephen Post Queen history of this family many years ago, I found nothing to suggest a linkage with "old" William Queen. Thus, the DNA results are as expected insofar as the absence of a match to "old" William Queen. 3. To my knowledge, Nathan Queen was not a member of a community in which "old" William's kin were located. The name "Queen" was our clue and hope to make a connection to other Queens. But, it was our only clue. The exciting discovery with this sample (with 9 of 12 mismatches to "old" William at the 12 marker level) is the perfect match with a McQueen of South Carolina....with reported documented lineage back to Scotland. 4. Researchers through the years have been unable to find any evidence of a linkage of Francis Queen to the "old" William clan. For one thing, Francis had too much money....perhaps Rolla is of royal ancestors. Thus, the absence of a genetic linkage was not unexpected. 5. No evidence has ever been located linking "old" William to the Samuel Queen clan of Maryland. We were grasping at straws in trying to find a link...and we didn't find it through YDNA testing. Those folks moved in different circles than did our "old" William. Thus, no surprise here. This leaves 4 samples that have me scratching my head. As I recall, the expectation is that 2-5% of the samples should reflect unreported adoptions or other events somewhere up the family tree; thus 1-2 of these samples may fall into that category using "average" statistical data. If the Queen clan was a bit more rambunctious than average surname folks, then perhaps 10% is a reality for our gang somewhere up in the higher branches of the tree. Discouraging results...........I suppose that my discouragement is primarily in two areas: 1. We (and me, I) should have absorbed the reality that there was little likelihood that sons of "old" William would have YDNA different from their pa. The statistical reality was staring us in the face; but I never did the simple math until we were well into the project. In reality, the best we could realistically hope for was a mutation in the DNA of one of the grandchildren...and that the DNA of some of our samples would match that mutation. Well, we're still at our brick walls; but we can see "old" William on the other side of the wall and many can now call him their great XXX or some such grandpa. 2. The absence of confirming samples in some lineages. This is of great importance in some lineages with mutations; however getting that second sample back up the tree off a different branch has been a real challenge. I know, because I've tried to get some for other lines of interest to me. Still, we must not give up...especially regarding the samples with major unexplained mutations. My Alfred's pa?? Beats me; but we certainly have Rev. James Henry Queen of 1847 pegged with YDNA ...and we know from other evidence that his pa was Alfred. Hope this rambling is of help to someone.

    1. Re: [QUEEN] DNA - Alfred Queen Lineages
    2. O Eugene Queen
    3. Paul, I'm posting to Queen-L for the benefit of all, rather than responding off-list. My understanding is that you are correct in that Wm Q, Sr. of 1749 and Samuel of 1759 were brothers - and that they were sons of old William. However, Samuel of 1776-80 is not the same Samuel as the one who married Dicey. The DNA of descendant donors of Sr., Samuel of 1759 and Samuel of 1776 do not match. However, it is understandable that they do not match since 100's of male children were born of these lineages between 1749 and 1920+. (Over 90 male Queens descend from Alfred Queen of 1810 by 1942.) Thus, one point - perhaps two - mutations are expected in many lineages. Remember, it's the YDNA of the donor that is being analyzed; not the YDNA of the old ancestor. It's from the donor DNA that we can draw inferences as to DNA of the old ancestor.

    2. O Eugene Queen
    3. Let the data flow.............Within a few days I will post more DNA lineages of donors not on Queen-L. Many of us have posted our direct lineages as we received DNA results; but it's worth repeating. In order to be of the greatest assistance to Queen researchers, I ask that all queries regarding these lineages be posted to Queen-L. Further, any query regarding these lineages should include the documented lineage of the person seeking additional information. A single piece of vital information may be in the lineage of persons who have not yet posted such data to Queen-L. We can all benefit in some small way by sharing. My 3 cents.

    3. My recommendation is that everyone now reveal the names and birth years as far down the tree towards the donor as privacy concerns will allow. Any other concise info that would help others would also be in order. As for me, I will include my own name and DOB. However, I have promised some donors that their name will not be revealed; thus I will honor that pledge....which allowed me to get the samples. (In reality, the identity of the living donor will be of little or no value to the research of others anyway unless they're just interested in names of members of any family.) My 2 cents.

    3. We've learned much since biting into the YDNA project. It remains my opinion that, in total, it has been a resounding success.

If the Queen clan was a bit more rambunctious than average surname folks, then perhaps 10% is a reality for our gang somewhere up in the higher branches of the tree. Discouraging results...........I suppose that my discouragement is primarily in two areas: 1.
