--WebTV-Mail-21557-2947 Content-Type: Text/Plain; Charset=US-ASCII Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7Bit In answer to your question about siblings for Benjamin Sawyer, I have been given the following information: Henry Sawyer was one of the 4 original Sawyers in Pasquotank Co. in the 1697 Tax List. I understand there was a Will for Henry in 1728 He mentioned his wife, Sarah and his children Charles (m. Anne---?), Benjamin , Daniel (m. Mary--?), Caen,Tamer (m. Daniel Coen), Elizabeth (m. Edward Williams), Charity (m. Griffith Gray) and Susanna (m. ---?Williams). [The spouses names in brackets are from various other sources, not necessarily from Henry's Will.] For your information, Benjamin had 3 sons: Caleb, Ben Jr. and the James you mentioned. And James had Evan, (b. bef. 1792) Asa (b. bef. 1774), Tully (b. bef. 1792), Willis (b. 1756) and Lydia ,who might have been a daughter of James' 2nd wife, Sarah. Caleb, Willis and Tully were common names among the later Sawyers, so hard to pinpoint the right one. Hope this has been some help to you. --WebTV-Mail-21557-2947 Content-Disposition: Inline Content-Type: Message/RFC822 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7Bit Received: from mailsorter-101-3.iap.bryant.webtv.net (209.240.198.120) by storefull-112.iap.bryant.webtv.net with WTV-SMTP; Sun, 30 Jul 2000 15:18:11 -0700 (PDT) Return-Path: <[email protected]> Received: from lists5.rootsweb.com (lists5.rootsweb.com [63.92.80.123]) by mailsorter-101-3.iap.bryant.webtv.net (8.8.8-wtv-d/ms.dwm.v7+dul2) with ESMTP id PAA15109; Sun, 30 Jul 2000 15:18:09 -0700 (PDT) Received: (from [email protected]) by lists5.rootsweb.com (8.10.1/8.10.1) id e6UMGnP20613; Sun, 30 Jul 2000 15:16:49 -0700 Resent-Date: Sun, 30 Jul 2000 15:16:49 -0700 X-Original-Sender: [email protected] Sun Jul 30 15:16:48 2000 Message-Id: <[email protected]> X-Sender: [email protected] X-Mailer: QUALCOMM Windows Eudora Light Version 3.0.5 (32) Date: Sun, 30 Jul 2000 17:09:02 -0500 Old-To: [email protected] From: Cheramie Breaux <[email protected]> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Subject: [SAWYER] North east NC Sawyers Resent-Message-ID: <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Resent-From: [email protected] X-Mailing-List: <[email protected]> archive/latest/512 X-Loop: [email protected] Precedence: list Resent-Sender: [email protected] I'm wondering if anyone has more information on this: Henry Sawyer b. 16?? d. 24 June 1728 wife: Sarah had a son Benjamin, b. before 1728. Benjamin's name appears on a deed in 1750. Benjamin had a son, James SAWYER b. before 1755 and died before 1792, and married Charity someone first, and a Sarah somebody, second. James and one of those wives had a son, Asa, born about 1770. Now, what I'd really like to know is if Benjamin had brothers and sisters and their names. Anyone have this????
