Hi Folks, I thought I'd pass this query along to the group. So far, I'm getting nowhere with it. I had Wm. H. in my records but no parents either. His father must have hid from the census taker in 1850. Can anyone help?? Also see my other comments at the botton. From: "Robert S.Carlon" <rcarlon@runet.edu> -------------------------------------------- My great great grandfather was named William Herring Sloan and owned a large plantation in Duplin County NC near Chinquapin. I have also been told that he was a surveyor. He fought for the Confederacy (I am cure he is one of the Williams listed from NC) and according to my grandmother he was captured in the vicinity of Petersburg and held in Libby prison by the yankees for almost a year after the fall of Richmond. After the war he returned to Duplin County where he raised his 10 children and is buried in the family plot in Chinqupin. I have no idea who my Sloan ancestors are prior to William. After reading your information I am wondering if he was decended from the Robert Sloan that recieved the land grant in Carolina in 1757 and died in Duplin county the next year. I am not sure how much land my great great grandfather owned but it was a fairly substantial tract. I have been told that his land holdings streched for ten miles on both sides of the road that ran through the area so it had to have been thousands of acres. According to my grandmother he came over from England as a boy. I doubt this because I think it would be difficult for someone who had just arrived in this country with nothing to aquire this much land by the time of the Civil War when he was probably in his twenties or thirties. My theory is that he was born in this country perhaps to a son or grandson of the Robert Sloan who recieved the grant, and his land was all or part of that 1757 land grant that he inherited. Anyway, as for my Sloan connection my great grandfather Binford Sloan inherited some of the land that his father owned and was a farmer in Duplin County. His daughter Virginia Sloan is my father's mother. She had two brothers Francis, and Binford Jr. My great grandfather came to Hopewell VA in the teens to work in the Dupont factory that was producing gunpowder for WWI. They returned Wallace NC for about 10 years but when the depression hit they pretty much lost everything, because they could not make enough to pay the taxes on the farmland so they moved back to Hopewell VA. My family still lives a few miles from there. My name is Robert Sloan Carlon Jr. The Robert however came from the Carlon side. Maybe what I told you will add a piece to the Sloan puzzle! I have always been very interesting in tracing my family history yet I have never been able to get past the early 19th century. I have even stopped in Chinquapin on my way to the Wrightsville Beach and tried to locate the family cemetary. My father said he remembered being there in the 60s but could not locate it in recent years. Perhaps like so many family plots it has become overgrown. Anyway thanks for the information it was very informative. Rob P.S. Have you found any evidence that any Sloans were related to the British Royal family. My uncle said that one of our relatives down in NC had done some research and had had found a link to the british Royal family either through the Tudors or the Stuarts There is also a place in London known as Sloan Square. I once heard someone on TV refering to Princess Diana as bring very "sloany". I was intruiged so I asked a friend of mine who is a Brit what that meant. He said that Sloan Square is a very trendy part of London where a lot of young people lived. People who are Sloany are are simply young and fasionable.

I have recently signed on to the Sloan-Slone web. I have read with interest many of the messages sent. I have no idea where my family's roots are past my Grandfather. His name was James Millard Sloan. He married Bertha May Avant in the mid-1880's. My father is one of 12 siblings. He was born in 1912. My grandfather disappeared in the early 1920's. They lived in Pilgrim, TX (Gonzales County). If anyone has any insight to this branch of the Sloan family, please respond. Supposedly he came from either Tennessee or Virginia. Thanks C.

I have been having trouble submitting a post & want to see it this goes thru. Linda

Harkman Sloan moved from Scott Co., Va to Johnson Co., Ky abt 1866. Among his children moving with him was John M. and Thomas. My family has faded memories that my Grandfather Charles Wesley Slone was the son of Thomas. I have been unable to find anything on Thomas and as to whether he had children. My Grandfather was born in Johnson Co. abt 1871-1873. I suspect Charles is the son of John M. for the following reasons. The 1880 Lawrence Co. census shows a Charles as the son of John M. There is also a W. Charles there as John's brother. Charles Wesley was married to Calista Murphy (Boggs?) in John Sloan's home in Lawrence Co. on Aug 26, 1899 per thier marriage register. Can anyone help me make a connection with this family. Thank you in advance. Charles in Augusta, Ga.

What > is this based on? Does Monica have anything further? This will be a long one, If you're not interested in Archibalds hit delete!! I thought that I probably left Edwin and my other cousins hanging with my leap of faith story and a more detail explanation was due. All my "new" cousins that descend from ole Archibald Sloan, Sr I may want to listen. *************************** Rationale for my "leap of faith" that Archibald of Blount Co. Tn. is the same as Archibald Sloan, son of John Sloan, son of Archibald Sloan Sr.#1 of Hanover Twp. PA. Comments concerning MY Tn. Archibald: He is one of the first settlers in the area when it opened up in 1778 with land entry #99 in then Washington Co. NC. In 1783 this became Greene Co. NC. In 1792, part of Knox Co. NC. Blount Co. NC. in 1795 and finally Blount Co. TN. in 1796. I've have not seen any record that indicates his place of birth or origins before 1778. I believe we (Monita Horn and I) have researched all the early Sloan settlers in Tn. and I don't think any were immigrants. Most of the early Sloan settlers in Tn. came from NC. either Rowan/Iredell or Mecklenburg counties. Some of these were b. in Pa. prior to the move to NC. My gut feeling has always been that our Archibald was not an immigrant and that he probably descended from an Archibald Sloan. If that is true, then he must come from some other state. There are 59 Archibald Sloans in my database. Of these, only 11 are b. before 1760. #1. Archibald Sloan, Sr. I, b. bef 1697 probably Europe, d. bef 1764 Lancaster Co. Pa. #2. Archibald Sloan b. abt 1710 Ireland? of Onslow Co. NC. Nothing known. #3. Archibald Sloan, Sr. II, b. abt 1719, d. abt 1788, Rowan Co NC. #4. Archibald Sloan b. bef 1739 m. Margaret Sloan, dau of John & Jane Sloan, d. 1793 in probably Dauphin Co. PA. #5. Archibald Sloan b. abt 1740 Onslow Co. NC. (son of John) d. 1791 Rowan Co. NC. (I think place of d. is questionable.) #6. Archibald Sloan b. bef 1744 in Lancaster Co. PA. or Europe, son of John & Jane Sloan, mentioned in Uncle Samuel's will in 1771, went west & never heard from again. (Maybe he was ticked that he only received 3 £, the plantation went to his cousin Archibald Sloan#8) #7. MY Archibald Sloan b. before 1743 place unk, d. 1800 Blount Co. Tn. #8. Archibald Sloan b. bef 1751 Pa. d. abt 1804 Botetourt Co. VA. #9. Archibald Sloan, III b. 1753 d. aft 1793, Natchez, Adams Co. MS. #10. Archibald Sloan b. bef 1755 Cumberland Co. Pa. d. bef 1810 Crawford Co. Pa. #11. Archibald Sloan b. bef 1756 Ireland d. 1810-10 Newberry Co. SC. Archibalds #1,3,4,6,8 and 9 are of the same line out of early Lancaster Co. Pa. (later Dauphin Co. Pa.) 6, 8 and 9 are all 1st cousins. Archibalds #2 & #5 are part of the Duplin Co. bunch. From a published family history, don't really know where or when they show up in public records. Is it bef or Aft 1778? They are still possibilities. Based on this slightly biased analysis #6 and #7 appear to be the same. Bear in mind, finding the place of death of all this Archibalds was no easy task. It has taken Monita about 20 years. #8 is a real piece of work. I feel confident that we have found all the possible Archibalds in the south and PA. So, my Archibald must be equal to one of the other 10 or else he jumped off the boat and landed in the middle of East Tn. The clue that led me to believe that #6 & #7 are the same came out of an article published in OH. "The History of Montgomery Co. OH." The article was about an early settler, Robert Sloan originally from Hanover Twp Pa. It talked about his father Alexander that lived and d. in Hanover Twp. It mentioned Alexander's first wife Elizabeth and 2nd wife Jean Moor/Moore. (Ingle's also mentioned this couple in his "Sloans of Hanover" article.) The article did not mention the name of Alexander's father, but said he was of Lebanon Co. PA. [Lebanon was from Dauphin Co.] For years I have referred to him as "Old Lebanon" The article stated there were only two known sons, Alexander and an unknown son that "went to the Great West" and was never heard from again. I've had this info in front of me for years and never saw the connection. "Old Lebanon" was the John Sloan that d. 1749-63 who only had two sons, Alexander and Archibald. The only thing that I knew about Alexander was that he m. Elizabeth Sloan in 1764 (probably a sister of the Archibald Sloan that m. Alexander's sister Margaret in 1759, you can't get much more confusing than that!!) Now, I see it's obvious that this Elizabeth is the first wife of Alexander Sloan that m. 2nd Jean Moor. Alex is buried next to Elizabeth in the Old Hanover cemetery. AND the brother that went to the Great West was his only brother, ARCHIBALD. I always thought the Great West was Calf. Or Nevada, not Tenn.!! However in 1771-88 the west was the wilderness of Oh, Ky. Tn. etc. Other circumstantial evidence: #6 Archibald is the son of John & Jane Sloan. #7 Archibald's first son is John and first? dau is Jane/Jean. All the names of Archibald's children are the same as the Lancaster bunch, (typical Scot-Irish names) The birthplace of #7 Archibald's children is unknown, however, many of the spouse's families come from the Lancaster area. i.e. McTeers, Cooks, McConnells, I saw Boyds, and Campbells neighbors of Sloans in Lancaster Co. but not sure if/how related. The migration of family/friends together is fairly well documented. It is also common for the children to relocate after the settlement of the parents estate. #6 Archibald's widowed mother Jane sold the farm in 1764 and Archibald also sold his 31 acres. No record of new purchases. He may have left the area then or left after he received nothing from his uncle Samuel's estate in 1771. To prove this theory I need to find some evidence "in Tn." that our Arch came out of Pa. or if any of his kids were b. in PA. If this evidence exist, I believe it may be in the dusty files of Greene Co. Tn. I don't think it exist in any of today's published records or we would have found it already. Any other cousins ready for this "leap of faith?"

I know some of you have been recommending the www.familysearch.org well I have to tell you so far all I get is a busy it must be good Betty

Frank, This is a very interesting Leap of Faith. It seems that you and Monica have about eliminated any other Archibald of that era as our Arch and that there may not have been any other Archibald (at least yet discovered) in America at that time. So, by that rationale, this would be our Arch. The siblings' names certainly tend to be familiar, possibly carried from one generation to the next. Is the most definite date of death "after 1771", which as you know leaves about 29 years leeway from our Arch's known date of death? What is this based on? Does Monica have anything further?

Hi, I'm researching Samuel Sloan b. 1799? in Ireland married Mary Ann Buchannan b. 1799? in Ireland. They married December 4 1823 in Westmorland, N.B. Canada. Their children were Joseph b. 1824, Samuel b. 1829 , Mary Ann b. 1833, John Alex b. 1834, Robert W. b. 1836, and Elizabeth M. b. 1840.. They were all born in N.B., possibley in Albert Co.. Robert came to Maine and lived in Westbrook and Portland, he was married to Sarah Elizabeth Kennie(kinnie,kinney). I am trying to find info on Samuel Sloan, if any of these other Sloans sound familiar let me know. Thank You, Paula

Frank & Amanda, O.T. Adkins in his book "Pike County, Kentucky Marriages i866 to 1900" on page 175 list a marriage of a William Slone 16 to Nancy Coleman 20 on 15 Jan 1886, at Nathanial Coleman's.

Thank you so much. Is this in the database and I just missed it? You sent the following:Source: 1. 1952 research of George B.H. Sloan, 1401 E. Virginia Avenue, Kokomo, IN. [dpob,dpom, spouse, dod,son]{Not totally sure George is source of this material, received May 98 from Charlotte Sloan/Ruth Gifford of Utah} Is there a email address for Charlotte Sloan? I have a couple of Charlotte's back a generation or two...aunts, great aunts and cousins...maybe I have a connection here also. I am also printing this to send to new found cousin, R.G. in Victoria. Wish he was on email!! Haven't even met his, and I am already complaining. Was there anything on the other "missing cousin Walter or David Mateer? Thank, Beth

Slone Charles, I believe you're right about Charlie being the son of Morgan. I have Morgan listed as father, living w/Charlie and Nancy Slone in the 1900 census of Pike Co. Ky. I did not have Charlie with Morgan in 1880. I just notice that in Violet Wright's (& Hope Blackburn) "Pioneers on the Livisa" she has William Mitchell Slone and Charlie Slone as being the same person. Violet also has quite a bit more on the Coleman desendants of the family. This is what little I have, including your update. Most of Violet's book I don't have in my database (someday maybe).

Hi Folks, Actually I've been enjoying the inactivity so I could work on my own lines. In case you haven't gotten the word yet, there are a couple of good web sites recently open for business: #1 is the LDS International Genealogical Index and Ancestral files index. Go to: http://www.familysearch.org/ #2 the Roostweb now have a theaded mailing list search engine. Go To: http://archiver.rootsweb.com/ This site allow you to search for Sloans in other mailing lists (that have registered). As of right now, There are 1654 mailing lists being archived there(out of 6,000+ list). As of midnight, there were 152,607 available messages. NOTE the SLOAN-SLONE List is NOT one of the 1654 mailing lists. So right now, If you run a query for all SLOANS, you will NOT received the thousands of Sloans that have appeared on our list. However, you do get "Beth Sloan" <eas@coam.net> a lot!! How many list do you subscribe to Beth?? In case you didn't know, It is always possible to search our old messages for info. Go to: http://searches.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/listsearch.pl and enter in the SLOAN-SLONE-L pick a year and enter your query. It's a very flexible search engine. i.e. enter a query for <sloan and Jackson> and probably get all messages concerning Sloans of Jackson Co. Tn. etc. Now I have a query for you: Does anyone know anything about this John Sloan's son, Archibald Sloan?? 1 John Sloan b: Bef. 1715 in Ireland, Scotland, England or LANCASTER Co. PA. d: Bet. 1749 - 1763 in Hanover Twp?, LANCASTER Co. PA. . +Jane ??? b: Bef. 1715 d: Aft. 11 May 1764 in Derry twp, LANCASTER Co. PA. ........ 2 Margaret Sloan b: Bef. 1741 in LANCASTER? Co. PA? ............ +Archibald SLOAN (WHERE DID HE COME FROM???) b: Bef. 1739 d: 1793 in Derry Twp? DAUPHIN? Co. PA. m: 04 January 1759 in LANCASTER Co. PA. ........ 2 ARCHIBALD SLOAN b: Bef. 1744 in LANCASTER Co. ? PA. d: Aft. 1771 in LANCASTER Co. PA. maybe BLOUNT Co. TN. ........ 2 Alexander Sloan b: Abt. 1744 in LANCASTER? Co. PA? d: Aft. 1771 in YORK? Co. PA. ............ +Elizabeth Sloan m: 30 October 1764 in Lower Chanceford Twp, YORK Co. PA. ........ 2 Mary Sloan b: Abt. 1746 in LANCASTER? Co. PA. d: Aft. 1764 in YORK? Co. PA. ............ +John Thomson? m: 30 October 1764 in YORK Co. PA. ........ 2 Elizabeth Sloan b: Bef. 1763 in LANCASTER? Co. PA? Listed as child of John (dec'd) & Jean in 1763 Donegal Twp. Received 3 pounds in uncle Samuel Sloan's will. ****** It appears that the 19 Mar 1764 patent also contains 31 acres belonging to Alexander and Archibald both of Hanover Twp which they sold to Wm Sawyer on 11 May 1764. Wm Sawyer Jr. & wife Mary sell all 131 acres to Peter Jontz on 3 Apr 1792. ***** Did he move to Blount Co. Tn. after he sold the land in PA. ? Sources: 1. "Engle's Notes & Queries" Vol. 3 1896 2. Samuel Sloan's will: Lancaster Co. PA. Will Book B vol. 1,pg743, 22 Aug 1771 3. Dauphin Co. Deed Book H, pg148, 3 Apr 1792 In a Sloan article in the History of Montgomery Co. OH. this Alexander is mentioned. It also says that Alexander's brother (unnamed) went to the great west and was never heard from again. I am beginning to believe this brother is my Archibald that was in Washington Co. NC.(Tn.) by 1778. My reseach buddy, Monita Horn thinks this is a very good possiblility (it's her theory) And I'm about ready to make a "Leap of faith" and tentatively make the connection. The down side is that it will effectively double my "personal" Sloan family kin database. Pro and Con comments welcomed.

My 3xGreatgrandparent, John Walter Sloan and his wife, Eliza Grier Sloan had two sons leave Kittanning Pa in the 1840's to search for gold in Australia. Their names just sit in my database with no information. Then Connier Mateer who runs the genealogy library in Kittanning heard from Ronald G. Sloan who lives in Victoria, Australia (and sent his letter on to me)...looking for any info about Walter and Eliza and their ancestors. He didn't send any info about what happened to Issac and Walter Jr, but I am very excited and even though he just wants info about the great grandparents, I'm printing all the Sloan items I have. I hope he will return information about the two "lost" Sloan kin. Nice to have cousins down-under...perfect excuse to go visit Australia. Beth Sloan

I don't know if our list has died or what....I'm not getting any Sloan list mail coming through. Is it just extrememly slow or do I have a problem? Linda Sloan in Texas - john@dgnscrn.demon.co.uk ... also at john.chalmers@USLGN.mail.abb.com and ... http://www.dgnscrn.demon.co.uk/

Hello list folks... Just to show the list is alive and useful.... FYI. Today I was reading records from Dickson County, Tenn. and found two Sloans in the very deeds index. David Sloan abt 1815 and Dickson Sloan abt 1820. Dickson Sloan was selling land to A. Dickson (Alexander? Dickson) That surely is our Duplin, NC, Sloans and Dicksons. See you here later... Gordon Sloan, Willcox, AZ... very very verrrry dry.

If anyone is looking for Sloan's in Illinois, I have Chicago city directories for 1900, 1904, 1908 for SLOAN and the IL state death Index for 1916-1947 for SLOAN I will have this data on my web site soon. If you are interested in a specific name now, just send me an e-mail and I will check for you. http://members.xoom.com/sloansite/sloan.htm _______________________________________________________________ Get Free Email and Do More On The Web.
