Scott, There is only circumstanial evidence to support that Old William Queen was the son of Timothy McQueen, but there is enough of it to convince me. William Queen was referred to in the records as Queen, MacQueen, and Quinn- but by following court and land records there is enough evidence to concluded that the records refer to the same man. a. William MacQueen and his first wife, Katherine Lewis were in Maryland early on. William MacQueen and his wife, Katherine MacQueen, inherited part of a plantation called "Birch Den" in Charles County, Maryland from Thomas Lewis's estate, along with her married sisters, Mary Hunt, Elizabeth Fry and Anne Robins and their husbands. Miles Philpeck, "William Queen 1716-1801," Bulletin of The Genealogical Society of Old Tryon County, Vol. XXV, No. 3 (August 1997). Charles County, Maryland Land Record Bk. O, #2, 464: 10 March 1741/42, William MacQueen and wife Katherine MacQueen of Prince George's County sell to Humphrey Deaverson, part of a tract called Birch Den which fell to Katherine, she being co-heirs with her sisters. Witnessed: Thomas Stone, Will Eilbeck. Charles County, Maryland Land Record Bk. O, #2, 402: 12 June 1739, Joseph Hunt and wife Mary Hunt, Joseph Fry and wife Elizabeth Fry, and William Robins and wife Ann Robins, all of Prince George's County, daughters of Thomas Lewis, late of Charles County, sell to Benjamin Thorn of Charles County a tract of 150 acres called Birch Den. Witnessed: Thomas Stone, John Briscoe. 1761/1781 William MacQueen and his second wife, Margaret, are in North Carolina as neighbors with the Frys, Hunts and Robins and John Queen, who I assume was William's brother. The Frys, Hunts, and Robins were William's in-laws by his first wife, Katherine Lewis. Katherine Lewis Queen's sisters and their families were found in Anson County, North Carolina records at the same time as William and John Queen. Philbeck, "William Queen 1716-1801," 135-137.

I have posted this issue several times and get little response. Getting little response concerns me. What documentation do we have that supports that the William Queen of North Carolina is the son of Timothy McQueen of Prince Georges County, MD? There are many online sites stating this as fact. Can we say without any doubt that it is? I know Timothy had sons William c 1716 and John c 1719. There is a William McQuin who died in Shenandoah County, VA c1802 who could have been the son of Timothy. There is a John McQueen who was constable in Orange County, VA c1739 who could have been the son of Timothy. This is particularly interesting because a John McQuin of Fayette County, VA who applied for Rev War Pension in 1818. He was born about 1739 in VA and died in 1833. This John named a son Timothy. There is an internet family tree showing Timothy as the son of John and grandson of Donald and Elizabeth McAlay McQueen. What documentation is there to support this? Please let me hear from you.
