Posted on: Amelia County Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Va/Amelia/10699 Surname: DAVIDSON, DAVSION, OWEN, BRACKETT, HOLT, PLUNKETT, COBB, DRISKILL, ATKINS, BOWMAN, MCDEARMONROE, JACKSON, FRAZIER, BALDWIN, EWING, BLANTON, BROADWAY, RICE ------------------------- John and Ann Davison (often spelled as Davidson by second parties) purchased 100 acres of land from James Taylor of K&Q Co, VA on 6-July-1725. At the time, my Davisons lived in the part of Sposylvania that became Orange Co (near the present town of Orange). Also, a William Davison lived in the vicinity. Relationship to my John, if any, is not known -- although from examining records, William appears to be much older than my John. In early, Amelia Co, VA records there is a "murky" William Davi(d)son. John and Ann Davison named their first son William. In 1742, John and Ann Davison sold their Orange County land and moved to Amelia Co, VA (part that became Prince Edward Co -- Mountain Creek/Bush River). John and Ann Davison had following children, with estimated birth year - probably plus or minus a year or two, as named in order of John's 1754 Will: William b: c1726 Married a Sarah Bowman and he died in Prince Edward Co, VA. Richard b: c1728 Married a Mary (family name unk although some claim Ewing, there is no documentation to support that notion) he died in Prince Edward Co, VA. Widow Mary and decendants moved to Fayette Co, KY. Joshua b: c1730 Married Sarah "Sally" Owen and he died in Prince Edward Co, VA. Decendants mostly moved to Fleming and Mason Co, KY and to Maury Co, TN. Daniel b: c1732 Married a Nancy (family name unk) moved to Anson Co, NC and was there around 1800. Elizabeth b: c1734 Married James Atkins in 1756 and she later moved to Anson/Montgomery Co, NC. George b: c1736 Married 2d Brazilian Atkins and moved to Anson/Montgomery Co, NC. Ambrose b: c1738 Apparently married dau of Robert Atkins (her first name unk) and he moved to Anson/Montgomery Co, NC. Atkins wife was deceased before 1777 when Robert Atkins made out his will. Am particularly interested in tracing my John and Ann Davison back beyond the 1725 facts. There is so much misinformation on the internet, that I have gone back to the "basics" of research based on factual records. But, lack of early records in Virginia for the "burned" counties are hampering progress.

Thomas Elmore Craddock (1781) was the son of Edmund Craddock and Nancy (Ann) Elmore. I feel certain that Edmund Craddock was the son of William Craddock (d. 1796) and his second wife, Hannah Harper. That would make Edmund a half brother to William Cross Craddock. The children of Edmund and Ann Elmore Craddock were: Descendants of Edmund Craddock Edmund Craddock b: Abt. 1750 in Virginia d: Bet. 1791 - 1796 in Probably Laurens Co., South Carolina +Ann Elmore b: Abt. 1756 in Prince Edward Co., Virginia m: Abt. 1774 d: May 01, 1842 in Autauga Co., Alabama / ..Ann Craddock b: Abt. 1774 d: Aft. 1735 / ..+Abiram Lawrence b: Bet. 1755 - 1774 m: Bef. 1800 / ..Mary Craddock b: Abt. 1776 d: Bef.

They had two children together. She was the sister to John Archer Elmore, who was a polititian in SC, then moved to Autauga Co., AL, where he was also a legislator (Elmore Co., formed from Autauga Co., AL was named for him). He was also married to a Saxon, and James Saxon and Ann Elmore Craddock Saxon moved from Laurens Co., SC to Autauga Co., AL..which is where both she and James Saxon died. Barbara

Posted on: Amelia County Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Va/Amelia/10687 Surname: STONE ------------------------- What a coincidence! Just got back from Salt Lake City with a pile of papers and while in Amelia records I noticed the Stone family there. Made some copies of various records but haven't sorted them out yet. All the printed sources say they were from York, but I am wondering if they didn't stop off in Amelia on the way to Lunenburg. Unfortunately, those are really common first names. Will sort through what I collected and let you know.
