I just noticed your message. My grandfather was Charley Ragan, his father Owen Ragan, his father Nathan Ragan, his father Owen Ragon. They are all buried here in Mercer County MO. I don't have much on old Owen Ragon other than possibly a wife Nancy in Crab Orchard KY and a sister married to a Davis. I have all the kids of Nathan, Owen no.2, and Charley... almost 5,000 of them. I, too, would love to go back further.

You show us yours and....seriously, give us refs to the 2 Johns... we keep finding new stuff....this whole thread started with John/Bell, Francis Sr/Pegram, and William Powell/Priscilla All in NC...as in "who's your daddy".

I don't believe John/Eliz. of JAmes/Joan ever left Charles Co MD, or any of his left either. I think the Chapman chick married a Mathew, son of John/Eliz2, James/Joan1 and the Mathew dead 1716 Stafford is Mathew2, James/Joan1. I believe the Margaret, Jane, ( ?) I'm missing one...) in Stafford belong either to this Mathew, or to Charles, of James,/Joan. I think the Charles having kids in Stafford after 1731 is third generation. he is a grandson of JAmes/Joan via Charles Sr. there are no St Paul's records before 1716. Unless you can find me a Charles in MD or VA before 1716...he's dead. There is none in MD. John has MAthew pop up in all the Chapman stuff... then we have a later Wm and a John in nearby CAroline...I think these are sons of MAthew, ...James1, John2, Mathew3 Mathew4 ( and John 4). In fact, I think the 1752 sale is a grandson selling back to an uncle before going.... where???? Do we have any loose MAthew's popping up after 1752? When John Wood III dies, we see 4 half sibs around the deathbed...two of them male. This was in 1740.There is no guarantee that 4 half sibs was the total # of kids John Regan had. There just happened to be 4 of them hanging around the Wood death bed. The youngest of them could be absolutely no younger than 13. The oldest could be no older than 25. Old enough to be off on his own. So there may be a John here. However, this mythical 25 year old would be 33 in 1748 when we need a John Sr and John Jr to witness the Thompson deed in Surry. If we assume the John Jr and the John Sr are father and son...which is not always true, then they cannot be the son and grandson of John/Eliz2, James/Joan1... there isn't time for the younger to be older than 13 and he could not have witnessed anything. Sigh. I don't like any of the known men. What do we know of John the son of Joseph Sr??? Bro of Joseph Jr...uncle to John, Ralph, Richard....How old would he be? Old enough to have a son of age? Then there's Dan'l1, Francis2, Francis3, Joseph...do we have any kidlets for him? He's about 15 estimated years older than John/Bell. What do we know of his father ( Francis3, Francis2, Dan'l1)? Why do I have this Joseph's mother and grandmother both listed as Jane????? Yeesh! If this Joseph had a brother John we'd be rolling! John b. 1705 son of Francis2, Dan'l1 is my favorite candidate for everything. I just like the cut of his jib. I hate to give him a son out of whole cloth, but it's doable. I'd like to know mare about the sons we do have... Just a thought I have been meaning to put out there.... Don't get carried away by the Dan'ls in the line of Francis of Bute/Warren NC. Daniel was the signature name for the Pegrams...and the Rgns married Pegrams like Cracker Jack prizes.... Dan'l Pegram held the purse strings...so everybody had a Dan'l. I do realize that in all logical likelihood, we are going to have to accept the Dan'l of Surry VA and the James/Joan of Charles MD as one related entity....but then the Daniel's of Isle of Wight have to come into the fold also...they aren't going away. And Yeah...maybe, if we can drop the mythic trash about Teigh Reigh and his kingship of Ireland...we may find connection here also.

Was there not a Charles Rgn who enlisted in Rev War in 1776 Charles Co MD and received his pension (when?) from Warren NC? If so this Charles would have been born by 1760, perhaps a 4th Gen Rgn from James/Joan-1? Then there is the Charles Rgn b. 1759 who enlisted in Rev War in Granville NC in 1778. He md Mary Popplin. He died in Lincoln Co NC. In 1766 Bute NC we have a Charles Rgn & Son. This Charles was likely b. by 1725-29, likely a 3rd Gen son of James-1/Joan 1777 Bute NC Charles Rgn Sr b. by 1735..likely the the Charles of 1766 b. by 1725-29 Charles Rgn b. by 1756...not likely the Charles b. 1759 md to Mary Popplin. father & son? There was at least 3 Charles Rgns in Bute/Warren NC Charles (sr) b. by 1725-29 Charles (Jr?) b. by 1756 This Charles may be the one that md Zillah Lindsey...brother of Peter Rgn who md a Lindsey Charles/Mary Popplin b. 1759 But who is the Charles b. by 1760 that enilted in Charles MD?

My eyes are falling out of my head with the Charles Co MD original deeds I'm attempting for the umpteenth time. However, as a break, I returned to the 700 photos I took at the library in last summer. I am going to print out 2 versions of marriage records for Bute and Warren NC... with my guesses as to whom they are... jump right in anytime. I also noted for the first time a newby... in a book titled Misc Land Office Papers, NC Archives is the following: William Walker plat dated 23 June 1757 537 acres in Granville County on the East Side of Little Creek joining Axeoms Corner and the side of said Crk SCC William Reed, Richerson Wrigen, Sherd Haywood, Dep Suvr. I have at least once seen the son of William Powell Rgn dead 1770 listed ad Richardson instead of Richard. I have noted the presence of Richardsons in various and sundry actions in NC...but the date here is an eye opener... this is not Wm's son who is this??? Two random observations...There is no question there is separate Josephs and Johns...One bunch with the presumed Francis of Dan'l line, and one with John/Bell and the Durhams and Colcloughs and Shearins. However, they do share some geography...we have to be careful in separating them. There are again threads of Isle of Wight Dan'l here, confusing us with his proximity to both Dan'l of Surry and the folk in STafford.

(NOK for John I is Edward Williams a son in law, and Jeane Wood ( Jane) who later marries James MAnkin.)   From these two court filing matters we see that John I was on his third wife by 1709, so MAry XXX Regan Wood is dead.  He list five younger children to receive the remaining 1800+ acres of land in Stafford VA.  Margaret ( Philpot) and HER HEIRS get a lousey 50 acres in Charles Co MD.  It takes until 1716 to file.Either John did not die until then, or it took till then for youngest to come of age. If the 5 young children listed are not Margarets heirs, whose heirs are they...I think Joan's. We'll it on that later. John Jr has died before his father. John Jr has a son John, listed as NOK. We later see:  1738-1740 Prince William Co VA Deed D; Pages 136-141. May 25, 1739. John Wood of Parish of Port Tobacco in Charles Co., Maryland, Yeoman to Ralph Falkner of same, Gent .... for 50 lbs. gold .... 800 a. called Walker Town in Parish of Hamilton .... being part of a patent for 2,960 gr. to Henry Walker and afterwards renew'd. by John Wood grandfather to the aforesd. John Wood on March 13, 1695 ... 400 a. being conveyed from John Wood grandfather unto John Wood the father of aforesd. John Wood yeoman by deed of gift dated Dec. 11, 1705 recorded in Stafford Ct. 10 April 1706 .... the other moiety of 800 a. being remainder of all the lands in the patent ... deeds of lease and release. John Wood Wits: Geo. Brent, Chas Ewell, Thos. Robinson, Hugh Adie. Rec'd. of Ralph Falkner sum of 50 Ibs. At Court May 28, 1739 John Wood Acknowledged this release with the receit endorsed. So, by this we see that there was indeed a John Wood III, with a mom Elizabeth, and he is selling out in 1739.   meanwhile, the John Wood I will in 1716 above was witnessed by John Ragon. We next hear of this John:   John Reagon 13.476 CH £82.10.6 Dec 11 1728 Feb 26 1728 Appraisers: Thomas Sanders, John Craxson. Creditors: William Griffith, Daniel McDaniel.

Distribution to: accountant, children (unnamed, minors). Administratrix: Elisabeth Carroll, wife of James Carroll.   Okay, John Rgn, son of James and Joan has died in 1728, leaving unnamed minors. The James and Ann Rose/Ross appear to be either Ann Wood Ross/Rose, or Ann Rgn Ross/Rose . More on them later. Please note the Mc Daniel name, and note that the Admin has gone from Elizabeth Rgn to Eliz Carrol.    Then we go back to another John Wood...this is John Wood III:   John Wood 24.476 CH £25.10.0 Apr 16 1740 Appraisers: Matthew Stone, M. Banes. Creditors: Daniel Wright, James Ross. Next of kin: Matthew Reagon, Anne Ross. Administratrix: Elisabeth Carroll, wife of James Carroll. === John Wood 18.129 A CH £35.10,0 £33.8.11 Feb 21 1740 Sureties: Richard Chapman, James Mankin. Payments to: Anne Ross, Dr. Brown, James Glascock, James Ross, Richard Chapman, Daniel Wright, George Flanakin, John Stephenson, Matthew Barnes, Daniel Dulany, Esq., Samuel Hanson, Walter Hanson. Representatives: mother, 2 half-sisters (unnamed), 2 half-brothers (unnamed). Administrators: James Carrol and his wife Elisabeth Carrol (mother of deceased)   So John Wood III names as NOK ( Next of kin) Mathew Reagon and this same Ann Ross. The same Elizabeth and James Carrol admin the estate, and she is id'd as his mother. Along with Mom are 4 half sibs of John Wood III. Eliz has no kids with Carrol, thus I conclude they are Rgn folk. I also conclude Eliz. XXX Wood  was also the widow of John Rgn SR, in addition to John Wood Jr. As to her maiden name...the Peter Fernandie listed as NOK of John Rgn had a daughter Elizabeth of the correct age. That is a possibility. This is what I can find on Fernandie:   On the second Tuesday in April, 1669, Pedro Fernandez, servant of Capt. James Neale, deposed that he was 17 years of age. (Charles County Court & Land Records, D#1:62) On September 14, 1686, Peter Fernandis (cooper) gave a mare to Edward Brawner (the 3 year old son of Henry Brawner). And Henry Brawner gave a cow to Elizabeth Fernandis, young daughter of Peter Fernandis. (Charles County Court & Land Records M1:194) I wonder what this was about? Were Peter Fernandis and Henry Brawner making a marriage agreement concerning their young children? I do not know who Edward Brawner married, but he did marry in about 1702. The May-June 1676 Maryland Assembly paid Peter Fernando 2000 pounds of tobacco (the purpose for the payment was not recorded). The October 23, 1683, Maryland Assembly paid Peter Fernandis 3000 pounds of tobacco for maintenance--he was wounded at Susquehanock Fort and much disabled by his wounds. This support was continued in future years at 2000 pounds per year. On October 15, 1694, the Maryland Assembly granted citizenship to Peter Ferdinando and his daughters. I  know we have a Neale Rgn...anyone?  One more bit: John Glashon 14.500 A CH £107.18.8 £123.11.2 Dec 19 1737 Sureties: John Reagon, David McDaniel. Payments to: Prudence Sanders (administratrix of Charles Sanders), John Howison, John Howard, Thomas Brooke & William Holland, Esq., Samuel Hanson. Distribution to: widow (unnamed), 4 children (unnamed). Administratrix: Eleanor Hunter (late Eleanor Glashon).   Okay, we have seen Glashon before...too tired for where...Just put this in to point out that there is still a John Rgn in Charles Co MD. Odds are he belongs to John and Elizabeth ans is one of the four half sibs at John Wood III's death. M'ellen ( James...my appologies...I was dumbly including John Rgn the father of the unnamed minors as one of his own kids...so yes, there is at least 4. ( no one says they all had to be there. ===

M'ellen What date do you have when John & William Rgn admin the will of a Talliaferro man in Carline MD? You mention it was a decade aft death of John-2 (1728). Was it in 1738? When and where did a Mathew Rgn sell land? Was it 1752 Caroline MD? Is he s/o John-2? The James B. 1738 is likely the James who is in Guilford & Rockingham NC with brother John. Sister Jemima is also there with husband. Which Eli are you referring to? Eli Rgn of Wilkes & Ashe NC? Wm Rassan md Priscilla Manzey 27 Oct 1743 Stafford. could this be Wm Raggan md to Priscilla of Bute NC. Since he md 1743 he was likely born by 1723. Wm Rgns-2 son Wm Powell Rgn-3 was born 1722. JW Garrett

This is only speculation re: the Rgn's of Surry associated with Thompsons. 1721/22 Francis could be Francis-2 (Daniel-1) or Francis-3 (s/o Francis-2) 1731 Jane & Mary Rgn could be daughters of Francis-2 (Daniel-1) 1748 John Sr /b. by 1706 is likely the f/o John Jr /b. by 1727 perhaps md to Ann Bell? But who is Joseph Rgn? Could he be the Joseph with wife Mary later in Bute NC? Could he be a brother of John Sr? Francis-3 had a son Joseph-4/possible wife Mary. Could Francis-3 also had sons John Sr-4 & the William-4 "of Surry" who was in Bute NC? JW Garrett

Remember there were at least two John Rgn's of Bute NC in 1770's. There was the John Rgn/Anna Bell and John Rgn/Mary LNU who I think is connected to my Peter Rgn and a Charles Rgn Sr & Jr. This John Rgn/Mary LNU was dec'd bef 1790 as Mary is widowed according to 1790 census. So which of these Johns is the John of 1775 Safety Committe? Not familiar with Josiah Rgn. I do not see him at all in Bute NC. Could he actually be Jesse or Joseph?
