The language and personal attacks are not wanted or appreciated. Please refrain from trashing our genealogy forum with political agenda and personal attacks. Most here have an eclectic heritage that includes, English, Irish, Scottish, Welsh etc. We use the term British to discuss that eclectic background. Please understand the nature of this forum is that of American citizens with foreign ancestry. The tone of the dialogue is from OUR cultural perspectives.

I remember a great line that answers your question. "In the Colonies it was neither fashionable nor desirable to be a Scot" The Royalists who dominated Colonial Society brought with them from England their utter distain for any Scottish, hence the disappearance of many Mc's and Mac's. Regarding your Irish heritage remember, "an Irishman is only a Scot who learned to swim" The best research that discusses the name change was that of Myles Philbeck in 1997 published in the BGSOTC (does anyone recall what that stands for ?) His 13 page treatise on the Queen family is the only solid indication of the name change, but alas, it remains little more than a great theory.

Skip, I am in agreement with you on this. I am very sensitive to this as there are many errors on the web as a result of family legend. The problem with family legend is that the story may change from generation to generation. Someone thinks they kind of remember what grandpa said and after a few years that becomes fact. The next generation embellishes to glamorize the dull tree and the content is then posted to the web as fact. I'll give you a for instance. My family always told me that my Queen ancestor was James Jett Queen, son of Armstead Queen. The name was given as Jett because it was believed he was the son of Armstead's second wife Minnie Jett. I spent twelve years looking for information on James Jett Queen to no avail. The reason I couldn't find anything was because there never was a James Jett Queen. He was actually James N. Queen and he wasn't Minnie Jett's son. The information came from the Stephen Queen book. As a matter of fact that book stated Armstead was married to Sarah Norman and Minnie Jett. Primary source documents do not support that claim. Armstead was NEVER married to Sarah Norman. He was married to her sister Charlotte Norman. This has been proven by the marriage records of Faquier County, VA that show Sarah Norman being married to John Ross Dennison. (ironically enough these are my ancestor grandparents too) There are numerous census, marriage, death, and deed records that show the truth about this line. I get a bit frustrated with some who hold to the Queen book as an inspired, God-breathed work. It has many errors in it. But, the minute it is called into question you would think a murder had taken place. Family legend is a hard thing for many of us to call into question. But, when there are numerous primary source records that contradict it, we must yield to the source documentation. I have not seen anything to suggest the Gnatty Creek Queens were Catholic. That doesn't mean they weren't. I am sure the DNA evidence would clear up whether there is a close connection with the Maryland Queens. Whether that evidence would be disregarded because it contradicts family legend remains to be seen. I am hoping one of the DNA experts on this board will take a close look at the relationship between the two groups. I am a novice at this, even though I had the 37 marker test for my surname. However, from what I do know, it appears the two groups are not related. I am baffled at the lack of land records or any other records for Charles Queen. That amount of land would have to have a record somewhere. Maybe the board could take on this project as it certainly would answer alot of questions regarding the connection between the Gnatty Creek, Maryland, and Kentucky Queens. I will withhold final judgement until I see documentation. My ancestors and descendants deserve that. If anyone would like the primary source information regarding the three wives and the correct children of Armstead Queen and those wives, I will gladly provide it.

Unfortunately I (for one) do not believe it. If all this happened then there should be some piece of paper somewhere with some information on it. It is my understanding not one piece of information in the book has a paper trail agreeing with any claim, in fact there are a lot of contradictions. Surely between Magistrate, British Officer, shipping manifests, something should be there. ========= Begin forwarded message: > From: msbaldwin43@aol.com > Date: July 5, 2007 9:38:51 PM EDT > To: QUEEN-L@rootsweb.com > Subject: [QUEEN] Charles Queen > > ? > http://www.electricscotland.com/webclans/minibios/q/queen_family.htm > > ? > > We find there are quite a number of emigrants coming to America > from Ireland by the name of McQueen and McQuinn, and they tell us > there are no people in Ireland by the name of just QUEEN.

Hello, This past weekend, while passing south along Interstate 79, going home toward Logan Co., from Flatwoods, Braxton Co., WV, I passed a bridge that was named for "The McQuain Brothers." This bridge was located just north of the Clendenin, Kanawha Co., WV exit on I-79. I was struck by the similarity of the name to the MCQUEEN variances commonly discussed on this forum. I did some research and discovered that there are many MCQUAIN's contained within the central to southeastern section of WVA. Probably more McQuain's throughout the state and others as well, but I just mainly searched in WV... There is a similar problem with one of the surnames I search for that originates from VA...COMPTON, but many persons in southern WV and eastern KY pronounce it as CUMPTON. Therefore, some descendants have chosen to spell it as it is pronounced, even though they are from the same progenitor and family lineage of COMPTON. There are other variances also, but this one seems to be the most common. Thanks for all the insights....

Regrets that I wasn't clear on my test message. Response is not requested from Queen-L listmates. It was for Sharon only. I am trying again to establish contact with some MacQueen/Queen folks in Europe who are/may be interested in family research. Not having much luck. As for tracing our Queens back to Europe and linking with a family over there, the reality seems to be that early MacQueen/Queen arrivals to America are better documented here than folks back in the home country. No need to mention our "old William Queen" to individual researchers in Scotland/Europe. They wouldn't have the foggiest. What I'd really like to see is Scottish MacQueen/Queen folks actively working and sharing on a Scotland mailing list as we do with Queen list. Oh well, still okay for an old man to dream. Gene

I agree there is no proof that the name Queen came from a change as a result of serving in the British military.? However, knowing my family's history and characteristics, I do not believe they were British. My Grandfather told my mother that the family name was originally McQueen.?This information was passed down through the generations of Queen's in our family. They were part of a group called the Maryland League who arrived in Maryland in the 1600's They were escaping religious persecution as they were Catholic.? At the time, Maryland was a State that allowed Catholicism. When Maryland became Protestant, they left and migrated?to an area in Kentucky now known as the Holy Lands?of KY.? Here is some information about the research done by Henry Queen's sister. Henry Queen of NY wrote the Charles Jerningham Queen book and donated it to the Library of Congress. I met Henry through letters long before the internet was available. We corresponded and talked on the phone.?He sent me part of his book. His sister actually did most of the research visiting England to seek records. He was the one who told me there was no surname Queen that originated in England ?Sue ? -----Original Message----- From: Skip Queen <papanohair@mac.com> To: QUEEN-L@rootsweb.com Sent: Fri, 6 Jul 2007 5:24 am Subject: [QUEEN] Fwd: Charles Queen Looks like the info out of the History of the Queen Family. Unfortunately I (for one) do not believe it. If all this happened then there should be some piece of paper somewhere with some information on it.

Hi Sharon and all. I remember a great line that answers your question. "In the Colonies it was neither fashionable nor desirable to be a Scot" The Royalists who dominated Colonial Society brought with them from England their utter distain for any Scottish, hence the disappearance of many Mc's and Mac's. Regarding your Irish heritage remember, "an Irishman is only a Scot who learned to swim" The best research that discusses the name change was that of Myles Philbeck in 1997 published in the BGSOTC (does anyone recall what that stands for ?) His 13 page treatise on the Queen family is the only solid indication of the name change, but alas, it remains little more than a great theory.

I was sorry to hear of her death, I did not know her, but she and my sister worked together on the queen line. She was a great help in sorting out the Williams and their wives Margaret. She also helped us with James Queen and Sarah Jones. My sister said, she was a wonderful woman. Nancy Wiley </HTML>
? http://www.electricscotland.com/webclans/minibios/q/queen_family.htm ? We find there are quite a number of emigrants coming to America from Ireland by the name of McQueen and McQuinn, and they tell us there are no people in Ireland by the name of just QUEEN. Now it was for this purpose of availing himself of entering the (1400) acres of land in America that caused CHARLES QUEEN and his young wife come to America in or near (1750), and they wended their way into this section of the Virginia Colony, in Harrison County of America, and located a homestead on the waters of Gnatty Creek at the mouth of Peeltree, a stream of (4) miles in length and selected land, later owned by old Judge Edwin S. Dunkin and at present owned by Porter Maxwell, and Ira Post heirs. Whether CHARLES QUEEN entered the full (1400) acres of land or not, is not known. If he took out a Patten for the (1400) acres of land, it should have been recorded in the Clerk's Office (for Pattens), in Richmond, Virginia, and this all came about before the Revolutionary War. There was a son born in 1752 to CHARLES QUEEN and his young wife while they were here in America, and was given the name of CHARLES QUEEN, JR., and they did not remain here for long in America, but returned to England, and CHARLES QUEEN, SR., soon died, and as it was the law of that country that the parents of children had to give their sons a trade of some kind, the mother of CHARLES QUEEN,JR., bound him out to the weaver's trade, and when he had served his time at his trade, he then had to serve time in the English army, so when he had reached his majority, and was a free man, he longed and desired to see the land of his birth, in America, so the son, CHARLES QUEEN, JR., returned to America in or near the year (1770), and took possession of the old homestead on Gnatty Creek at the mouth of Peeltree. At this time he was not married, but soon did marry Miss May Haley in 1773, a native of that country, and to this union (9) children were born. CHARLES QUEEN,JR., died and was buried in the old homestead in an orchard, east of Clarksburg and Buckhannon Highway, opposite the Ira Post Mansion. Of course after 1863 this land is now in the state of West Virginia, and the Clarksburg And Buckhannon Highway is now West Virginia state Rt 20 Joseph Queen at http://4dw.net/jqueen ?Sue ________________________________________________________________________ AOL now offers free email to everyone.
