Posted on: HALIFAX CO, VA QUERY FORUM Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Va/Halifax/2291 Surname: NOWLIN, DIXON ------------------------- Jane, I have a John Nowlin in my Dixon Line. He married Nancy Dixon 25 Dec 1815, in Halifax Co. I learned from the LDS Family History Library on their IGI he was born 1795 s/o David and Jane Nowlin. He may have been married before, for their are 2 listings for marriages for him/ first was to a Lucy Hensley. David and Nancy Nowlin's ch: David Peyton 1817; Martha A 1820; Sherod G 1823; (looks like they moved to AL as their following ch.born there)Thomas Finley 1826; William M 1829-30; Corasanda 1830; Carolina 1831; Cora Sandra 1832. I have not verified this as I just found this information today Have just discovered the marriage of Nancy(one of my loose ends). I haven't checked the 1830C index or the AIS to see if they did go to AL. AIS would tell the state where they were born. Also on another branch, Fanny Nowlin from Pittsylvania Co, d/o Daivd and Mary Nowlin married Joseph Petty,they migrated to Ray Co., MO. Let me know if this is your family. Good hunting Jean
