Hi fellow Queen researchers: I too have been quietly, but with great interset, watching information regarding the NC project on Queens. Just read cousin Rita Queen Bartmess's post on our ancestors. Wanted to add a little as relates to NC/GA research. Henson (b about 1858) & Nancy York Queen were in Rabun Co., GA in 1840 (he's listed as Henson in 1840) and in 1850 (listed as Hence) living near a William Queen (b about 1800). In 1840, there is just William and Henson; then in 1850 Rabun Co GA, there is Daniel, Hugh, Martha, Nicy, in addition to Hence and William. Then Nancy and children appear in Cherokee NC in 1860 and in Clay Co NC in 1870 (Hence had apparently died in 1859 or 1860). In 1860 Cherokee Co NC, Nancy is living with children Jerry, Mary, Harvey, Jane, and Jonas (our ancestor Hinsey Jonas Queen). She is living adjacent to the following Queens: John & Catherine Lowery Queen, ages 27 and 26, with children. Next household: William Queen, 23, and Fanny Cox Queen, 2, with children. Next household: Henson Queen, age 59 and Zilpha Queen age 50, with children. A post sometime ago listed the above John and William as sons of James C. Queen. I have been unable thus far to connect our Hence (or Henson) and Nancy York Queen with any of the other Rabun Co GA or Cherokee Co NC Queens. Another interesting fact, Hence and Nancy York Queen's son and our ancestor, Hinsey Jonas Queen and wife, Rachel Louisa "Lou" Martin Queen moved to Cobb Co. GA 1880's or 1890's along with Banks (perhaps Bankhead) and Mary "Mollie" Martin Queen (our Lou's sister). Missi of this list is descended from Banks & Mollie and reported earlier that Banks was the son of John and Catherine Queen, perhaps the John and Catherine above of 1860 Cherokee Co NC, living next door to our Nancy York Queen. So, apparently Banks and our Hence were related, perhaps cousins? There are several of us on this list researching this line, but to my knowledge, everyone is at a brickwall re parentage of Hence (or Henson) Queen, b about 1858, in Rabun Co GA with wife Nancy York in 1840 and 1850. Can anyone help us further? Paulette Willis Dunn Douglasville, GA
