Rodney: Through my own Riddle family (Happy Riddle Fisher)research and using the process of elimination there is no doubt our indian heritage came from the father of Capt William Riddle through his parents Moses and Mary Riddle. Moses association in Orange County NC with know Saponi Indians is probably a clue to the Tribe he originated from. Moses moved to Pittslyvania County Va, sometime in the early 1760's. In 1767 Moses Riddle told the tax collector John Wilson, that he was an Indian, also on this same tax list was William Riddle..

I don't know about your Tobias, however, I think we all know that the RIDDLES who came to KY were part Indian. I don't know exactly who the Indian ancestor was, but the Cumberland Co, KY RIDDLES certainly claim to have an Indian ancestor. I guess now, it is "native American".

My great grandmother was 100% Cherokee. Her name was Matilda Elizabeth (Owensby) Mitchell. Do you have anything on her?

Hi Carol, Your accounts sure sound like the Riddle family line I have followed for several years! I wrote a book about William Riddle and his wife, Happy, about a year ago. It was William Riddle who was hung at Wilkesboro, Wilkes Co., NC. He had a hideout on Riddle's Knob in Ashe Co., NC. Been there and seen it! Really beautiful country, with a special feeling there. His sons James and John were bound out in Montgomery Co., VA court records in May, 1782. Happy remarried William Ingraham, and got the children back again as far as I know. However, she died not long afterward. The children stayed in the area until the early 1800's. John, James, Thomas and Joseph went down to Bledsoe Co., TN. Joseph later went to Cumberland Co., KY. Thomas had two marriages - to Mary Igou and Delilah Burks. Isaac Riddle was his son, by his second marriage. Sounds like we may tie into each other. Please email me at: mevhill@burgoyne.com I'd love to share more with you!

Hi everyone, My name is Carol Gross and I am brand new to this discussion group and fairly new to the joys of Genealogy! I want to take this opportunity to say hi to everyone and give you a history of my roots in the Riddle line as I know them. I should be able to keep this brief since I really don't know very much. My father has a coveted box of research passed down to him from his late sister Wilda Maxine REMMINGTON. Unfortunately, when I was living close to him I did not take the time to sort the research, thinking it would be boring! Now I am living near Toronto and a two day drive from the years of research that my Aunt had accumulated! I am the daughter of Arthur Wayne RIDDLE, son of Earl Alfred RIDDLE and Louie Florence DAVID, Earl is the son of William Milo RIDDLE and Magnolia TIMMONS, William Milo is the son of Isaac RIDDLE and Sarah HAYNES, Isaac is the son of "The Second" Thomas RIDDLE and his second wife. Thomas is the son of William RIDDLE. This information I know for fact. My father gave me very short pieces of information to start working on. He referred to the following: Isaac having a disagreement with his half brothers when he sold his fathers property in TN; Thomas being referred to as "The Second Thomas" mention of Thomas or William being from Bledsoe County and or Morgan County TN; that Thomas and William's children shared the same names; Riddle Knob; an ancestor that was hung by the Tories or because he was a Tory; a wife who was widowed and lost custody of her children because of a law stating that an unmarried woman could not have children, she later got her children back when she remarried; So those are the stories that I am currently sorting out. At the site where I found this discussion group I found the information referring to William Riddle and am attempting to confirm that Thomas was his son. Any information that anyone can give would be deeply appreciated and I humbly offer my assistance to all in our attempts to find our pieces of the puzzles left by our fore-fathers. Carol Gross (sorry...guess not so short, promise to do better next time!)

Mary, I'm going to school in Knoxville right now. All my family still lives in Tullahoma. As far as I know, most of the Riddle's in my family around 1900, grew up in the Awalt Community, part of Tullahoma, and a lot are buried in a family cemetary there under another name. I've tried to trace my family history, but have not had much luck on the Riddle side. No one really remembers a lot, but most are still in the Coffee County area. Someone else said they had some info on Harmon Riddle. I hope they can help make some sort of connection. There are some Riddle's in Manchester that we havn't been able to find a link to, but it very well could be in that time period.
