Nothing here but a name and a county, but a possilbe lead nonetheless. The following list of soft bound and loose record family genealogies found at the Lebanon Library. NOTE: Some of the following have little information but are presented because the library includes them. Generally where you see only a last name, you will find very little information. James MCBROOM is listed

Found these McBroom's in NC? Possibly James the son of James (1755) is the james we are looking for. Henry D. MCBROOM listed below was born in Rowan Co., NC. Also this website is for TN folks. Maybe we can start in Rowan Co. and work forward to TN.

The court appointed Joseph & Margaret Queen administrators to the will annexed who were qualified accordingly. (a search in index of wills of Iredell county does not list this will, nor does a page by page search of the will book in which it would have been recorded reveal this will, which is unfortunate. Iredell Co. had a fire in it’s courthouse and it is possible the will was destroyed or through carelessness was never recorded after it was probated in May 1803, rta) In DB G, p 366, 17 Aug 1811, David Queen sold Azel Sharpe for $250, 340 ac main Rocky Creek adj James Queen and Joseph Queen and James King, being part of 2 deeds sold to Francis Queen by John King 1783 and which right was conveyed to David Queen from his father, Francis Queen, by his last will & Tes.

Witnesses: Ellis Queen and William Milsaps. DB S, p 404, 19 Sep 1855, Hughs Queen and wife Martha acknowledged the sale of their share of land of Hillory Gilreath on the Brushy Mtns on Fishing Creek. Acknowledgment made in Milledgeville, GA. In 1790 Federal census, Francis Queen is in Iredell Co., NC with 1 m over 16, 3 m und 16, & 4 females. . In 1800 pg 612 he had 1 m 10-16, 1 m over 45, 1 f und 10, 1 f over 45. In 1810, in Iredell Co., David Queen had 1 m 16-26 and 1 f 16-26 indicating they were just married (marriage bonds for Iredell Co were destroyed by the fire they had in their courthouse 1854). Joseph Queen listed 1 m und 10, 1 m 16-26 (a brother?) 1 m 26-45, 1 f und 10, 1 f 26-45, 1 f over 45 (believed to be Margaret). In 1820, David Queen is in Iredell p 236, with 4 m und 10, 1 m 26-45, 1 f und 10, 1 f 26-45. (from the deed in Wilkes Co stating Joseph Queen was in Clayburn Co., TN, it is apparent that Margaret also went to TN with Joseph, since she is not in the household with David Queen. Also note that James Queen went to TN in the lifetime of his father). In 1830, 0 43, Iredell Co., David Queen listed 2 m und 5, 1 m 10-15, 2 m 15-20, 1 m 40-50, 2 f 10-15, 2 f 40-50 (possibly one a sister?) and 1 f 70-80, who is Margaret Queen. In 1830 in Wilkes Co NC Martha Queen was listed with 2 m 5-10, 1 m 10-15, 1 m 20-30, 1 f 5-10, 2 f 15-20, 1 f 40-50, so sometime between 1821 and the time Joseph Queen died in Wilkes Co in 1827, they returned from TN, and it is possible that after his death, Margaret Queen went over into Iredell and died in 1832 at the home of her son David Queen, with Joseph’s widow Martha remaining in Wilkes. (There is also a record in the court minutes of either Wilkes or Iredell of the changing of the county line between the two counties during this period, which explains why their records are in both Iredell and Wilkes, for they lived on Rocky Creek in the Brushy Mountains which is a range of Mountains that are partly in both counties today-rta) >From the above records, Francis and Margaret (maiden name unknown) Queen had 7 children: 3 boys and 4 girls. James, David and Joseph were the males. Mary who married Samuel Correll is the only female that has been identified, since the will is not on record in Iredell Co. James went to Clayborn Co., TN, Joseph went to TN, but returned and died in Wilkes Co., NC, and David remained in Iredell Co., but I did not find him in 1850, however, his wife died before 1840 according to the census reading. And of course, Mary went to Indiana. Since no deeds mention any females, Margaret’s will mentions only Mary, and Francis’ will is not found, it is quite possible the other females on the census had died before Margaret made her will. >From census records in Wilkes Co and from his will, Joseph Queen and his wife Martha (maiden name unknown) had Elias (Elis), Francis who m. 19 Sep 1837 Wilkes Co to Lucy Anderson, James who m. 19 Dec 1840 Wilkes Co to Jemima Mayberry, HUGHS WHO MARRIED 24 MAY 1848 TO MARTHA L. GILREATH AND WENT TO GEORGIA, Jane who m. 27 Mar 1828 Levi Brotherton, Margaret who m. 4 Feb 1834 Litten Milsaps, Elizabeth and Alaminetta who m. 4 Aug 1840 Wilkes Co. to Cornelius Anderson. By 1850 only James Queen of the above children remained in Wilkes Co., NC. >From the same records of Iredell & Wilkes, David Queen and wife’s name unknown, had Radford J. Queen who m. Mary Milsaps according to one of their children’s death certs in Wilkes Co., Alfred m. 25July 1837 to Susan Brotherton in Wilkes Co., Jesse m. 29 Aug 1837 Wilkes Co. to Nancy Milsaps, Emilia, Cyrus m. 18 Apr 1843 Wilkes Co to Martha Cook, Basti (female), Hartwell who married 15 Oct 1854 to Marh Adline Laws in Wilkes Co. and according to census a male unidentified. By 1850 Radford J., Jesse and Cyrus lived in Wilkes Co. and I do not find any of them living in Iredell. Since Francis Queen was the only Queen that continued in the Rowan and Iredell Co records, it is fairly certain that he was the progenitor of those in the report above. The records of Rowan Co, other than marriage bonds and census after 1773 and 1774, is not available to me in my own collection or in the public library. There are two published books on Rowan Co. and neither of these mentions either the Queens or the Corrells. (end of Queen report).

Written by raven306@infi.net Sometimes I wish the Queen family had never heard of the name William. William Allen Queen, Jr. (1835-1915) is buried in Rutherford County, NC. His death certificate lists parents as William Allin Queen and Myrum Wilkerson.  (information provided to me by "tamara" through Queen-L)  The 1860 Rutherford County census (courtesy of Bill Floyd's web site) shows Queen W. A. age 55 and Mira age 54.  It doesn't seem likely that either of these W. A. Queens would have been the one you are looking for.  All I can say is good luck. --Phil Minch--

Hi Jean and all, Carol's post of the Will of a John McBroom of Hawkins Co., TN in 1828 is interesting in another respect than just possible links to Margaret, wife of Francis. Sometime between 1833 and 1838, Isaac Queen (b. ca 1806-1809) was in Washington Co, TN; apparently an adjoining county to the north. Gene

Hi Jean, I'm sorry, but it will probably take more research before your question is answered, if it ever will be. That's the challenge/thrill/disappointment of research. But, here is what we seem to know just from your post (any more pertinent data will be helpful): Francis Queen m. Margaret ....dau Mary Queen m. Samuel Correll (both buried in Sullivan Co, IN) ..........dau ?????? Correll m. ??????? and moved to IN with her parents. Francis Queen died ______and left Will which named wife and children____???? His Will was dated________, probated in _________county on ________. Francis' wife, Margaret, left Will in Iredell Co., NC; Book 2 pg 89; probated 1832. In that Will, Margaret mentions some property in TN with James McBroom. Therefore, we must assume that Margaret Queen, and probably Francis, spent some time in TN before 1832. Further, we assume a fairly close relationship or friendship with a man named James McBroom. If I had access to statewide TN census indices, I would search for James McBroom, Francis Queen, Samuel Correll, Quillen Williams Sear, Evan Ellis and John Hendren. My hope would be that if I found one of these names, then I may be in the right county. I would then narrow my research to that county for any tidbit of info I could find relating to either. I would also carefully check the Wills of Francis and Margaret, including looking for a possible (s) on son-in-law....sons-in-law or son-in-laws as executors. I enjoy speculation, then seeking to prove or disprove it. Thus, I would speculate that Margaret had at least three daughters, perhaps one or more from a previous marriage: one married Samuel Correll, one married Quillen Williams Sear and one married James McBroom. I would also consider the possibility that either Sear or McBroom were her brothers. Now, this is only speculation....and I further speculate that part or all of this speculation is incorrect. There is no marriage bond listed in Haywood County, NC (per Wooley) for either of the men mentioned above. What about Iredell Co., NC and other counties which may hold clues? Those of us involved in the Tennessee Project will certainly want to see what, if anything, we can find there concerning a James McBroom or Francis Queen/Quin/Quene, etc. prior to 1832. That's my 2 cents worth. Thanks very much for your post....and for any additional info which may help pinpoint people, places and dates. Gene

Hi, I ran a search of the name McBroom/e on the Tenn. genweb and came up with the following in Hawkins Co., TN. WILL OF JOHN McBROOM Page 252 Dated: January 22, 1828 In the Name of God, Amen. I John McBroom of the County of Hawkins, State of Tennessee, being sick and weak in body but of sound and disposing mind, considering the certainty of death and the uncertainty of the time thereof, and being desirous to settle my worldly affairs & thereby be the better prepared to leave this world when it shall please God to call me hence, do therefore make and publish this my last Will & Testament in the manner and form following, that is to say: First and principally, I commit my soul into the hands of Almighty God, and my body to the earth to be decently buried at the discretion of my Executors hereinafter named, after my debts and funeral charges are paid &c. Item. I give and devise unto my eldest son James McBroom $5.00, together with what he has received more than a proportional share alike. Item. I give and devise unto my eldest daughter Polly $5.00 together with what she has received a full proportional share alike. Item. I give and devise unto my son Alexander McBroom's children-all that are lawfully begotten-all the tract of land that I now live on that lieth on the north side of the Carter Valley Road, to have and to hold each and severally to share alike in fee simple.

Hi Jean Jackson, Wow! What luck! A question was recently asked off the list concerning the name of someone in TN who had personal belongings left by a Queen. Your post below answers much of the question. Please advise of the date of the will, where it was probated, etc. , any info you believe to be pertinent which would put us closer to the time frame and location of James McBroom in TN. Thanks, Gene ............................... Mandy and others -- I have done a little research about my ancestor Francis Queen. I have a copy of the info from his "will" as well as his wife, Margaret. My ancestor is their daughter, Mary(Polly). She married Samuel Correll and they moved on with their daughter and family to Sullivan Co. IND (where they are buried). I have a couple of puzzling questions perhaps someone can answer. Margaret Queen (wife of Francis) lists in her will that she had personal property at the home of James McBroom in Tennessee. How are the Queens related to this James McBroom? Also, when my Mary and Samuel Correll followed their daughter to IND I have found another probable relative of the Queens who I cannot place. Mary Queen and Samuel Correll's grandson and wife moved on to Harrison Co. MO. Living right next to them in the 1860 census is a Johnson Queen, born 1797 in Tennessee. Living with him was a woman named Arcunette (sp?) born 1821 in North Carolina. There were many children living with them who were all born in IND. Can anyone place this Johnson Queen? Jean

Gene and all, Margaret Queen's will was found in Iredell Co. NC in will book 2, page 89. The will was probated in 1832. It states " All the property that I have in Tennessee at James McBrooms I leave for him to dispose of as he thinks proper. She then appoints her son-in-law Samuel Correll and Quillen Williams Sear executors of the last will and testament. The will was witnessed by Evan Ellis and John Hendren. Now, please tell me -- who is James McBroom? Is this a brother of Margaret's or some other relative? Jean O Eugene Queen wrote: > Hi Jean Jackson, > > Wow! What luck!
