I am seeking information on Elkanah TALLEY and have been told to search in Halifax County, for one place. Elkanah was born in 1707 in England and immigrated to Virginia. Records say that he had two sons with him when he came here, William, born abt. 1730, and Nicholas TALLEY. My GGGG Grandfather was Nicholas TALLEY, born in 1729. His birth year is so close to the year that William was born, it is possible that he could have been his brother. Elkanah, unfortunately, had slaves, and, unfortunately, my GGGG Grandfather also had slaves. If anyone can help me connect or disprove my feelings on this one, please feel free to do so! Here is my line: 1. Nicholas TALLEY b. 1729 d. April 1795 Wife; Mary. I have found that they owned property in Christopher Run in Louisa County, VA., before selling and moving to North Carolina.

Bushy, there's a huge pedigree chart on Susan (Susannah) Overton on Kindred Konnections. Might want to check it out.

Who were the parents and siblings of Banister Moorefield b.- abt 1804, d.- May 1850 in Halifax co., Va of Pleurisy? He married Susan Martha Comer on 28 Jun 1824. One of their sons was named Mastin A. Moorefield, and for this reason a guess is that he may be the son of Marstin/Mastin Moorefield who married Wilmuth Stokes on 21 May 1804 in Halifax Co.,Va. The 1820 Halifax Census has Wilmoth Moorefield as head of a household with several children (three male sons one of whom could be Banister Moorefield). The same census list another family close by headed by Letty Comer. Susan Martha Comer was the daughter of Moore (Moses) Comer and his wife Letty Cole (Comer). Records show that both Marstin/Mastin Moorefield and Moore (Moses) Comer were dead around 1815. Would like to find the children's names of Marstin/Mastin Moorefield and his wife Wilmoth. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Sincerely, REGINALD L. VASSAR 3950 DAUPHIN PKWY ERIE, PA 16506 E-MAIL: rlv18@juno.com Web Site: http://www.angelfire.com/va/eriehome/index.html

Hi list! I am searching for any information on Joseph Irby b. c. 1728 in Virginia. I'm unsure exactly where. I've seen several possibilities, but to my knowledge no record has been found of his birth. I do know that he lived in Halifax for a while during part of the time period 1740-1780. He lived there during pre Revolutionary War times. He moved his family to South Carolina approx. 1779. He is said to be the son of Joshua Irby Jr., but the documentation to support this is weak. I'm also searching for the parents and ancestors of Joseph's wife, Frances Carter b. c. 1730, but unsure of where. It's possible that her name may have been Mary Frances Carter or Margaret Frances Carter. Any help on these two would be appreciated very much! Many thanks, Linda Graves
