My husband's ggrandfather ws Ira Ebenezer Weeks or otherwise known as Ebb. His father was Ebenezer Weeks also. Ebenezer the elder came from SC as did Ebb and they ventured down into Florida where Ebb married Nancy Artemis Anderson, who was suppose to have been a Creek Indian maiden. We've been able to connect her mother to the Creek nation, but not her fther, Willie Anderson. Artemis died in 1906 birthing her 13th child. Any information on the above Weeks' would be appreciated. Margaret Smile and make people wonder what you have been up to. The bigger the smile, the more they will wonder. _________________________________________________________________ Help STOP SPAM with the new MSN 8 and get 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/junkmail

Richard, My Great-Great-Grandfather was a Joseph Weeks who had a son George Washington Weeks, but he was born on 02/08/1808 somewhere in SC. That's as far as I've been able to trace my Weeks line.

Hi; Yes, both John A's were lawyers. It states that they are known to be descendants of Francis Weeks of Oyster Bay. I find a couple of Johns associated with Francis, but not sure how they fit in. One John had an only son named Nathaniel who died without issue. Another ..John sr. in will of Nov. 15, 1748 and proved in 1757, names wife Mary, sons George and John, and g. daughters Mary wife of Josephh Lattin, and Mary wife of Jacob Townsend. Another.... John sr. in will dated 1781 names wife Rebecca; children Jane, John (deceased) , Augustus, Anne, Elizabeth, Judah, Ruth, Charlotte; grandsons, William, Refine, John; d.-in law Elizabeth. I hope I have not really confussed you...Sorry I can't help with any wives surnames.

Hi Paula; Unfortunately the author of the two Weeks books followed the Massachusetts families more closely and with more detail. The Long Island families were quickly mentioned, but not in detail. Book II states " The fllowing are known or believed to be of the Oyster Bay family ".....but, follow this. George of Hempstead, L.I. was son of George, son of Thomas (died Feb. 18, 1761, aged 74 y. 6 m., 14 d) who had BROTHER EZEKIEL.....but I can't find a son named Ezekial under Thomas. I did find Ezekial, born May 4 and Baptized June 8, 1729, son of Joseph 3 ( Thomas 2; Thomas 1) . Joseph married Hannah Lewis.. Ezekiel married March 28, 1756, Sarah (b. 1730) Haviland, of Oyster Bay; died March 26, 1808; she died Nov or Dec. 7, 1808. He lived at Comac and was driven from his home by the British 1778. May have moved to Conn. Children listed; Jesse; William; Lewis; Sarah; Freelove. That's about it.......have I hit anything for you ???? Don't be affraid to write back should you find some more leads..........but.........nothing more, whatsoever on Ezekiel. Chow for now....

Does anyone have information on the Joseph Weeks born bet. 1660-1670, d. 1715, Westmoreland Co., VA. (1) m. Mary Pope (2) Sarah Blagdon. Where was he born, when did his family come to America (from where)? Etc. Everett Spackman

Hello,Everyone,I have been watching as everyone posts their wants for different Weeks lines, I am from the same line as Paula, Ezekiel,what I find most facinating is that there is a Van Zandt Texas.VanSant (another spelling of Van Zandt) along with the surname Sears are quite frequent where our Ezekiel settles in New Jersey.Paula check your Heart of the Pines Book.Does all this mean something?Perhaps? Ellen

Randy, Have you try Ireland on your WEEKS. My line was supposed to originate from there. Also try Alabama my WEEKS came through there on to Van Zandt County, Texas Ron Date: 5/16/2003 7:26:58 PM Central Daylight Time I wish I could help you in your Weeks search, but so far cannot find anything that jibes. The closest I can find of Weeks mentioned in my Weeks book, of so. Carolina....Robert S., trial justice and surveyor, Reevesville, S. Carolina. 1884, had a father living, also in Car. Also said there were many persons of the name in the Carolinas. Perhaps if you contacted all the town or city halls in the various areas, they might help, but it would cost....unless they couldn't find anything associated with your particular search, and then usually there is no charge. All my family are tracked from 1635 when they first came to Cape Cod, Massachusetts, but I can't trace them back to England. Randy Weeks

Was John A. Weekes of New York City and Oyster Bay, 1885 a lawyer, who also had a son(lawyer) named John A. ??

Randy, My John A. Weeks was a master cooper. In the family plot at Greenwood Cem Brkyn, there was a very badly worn marker for Elizabeth Weeks "mother". She is listed in the burial transcripts, having passed away the 7/8 of May 1863. I would love to know more about this family. I found, but didn't purchase, a memorial booklet commemorating an anniversary of the NYGBS in 1875--there was a member listing for John Abeel Weeks--possibly my ancestor. Wish we could make a connection, but, as you said, there were a lot of John Weeks!

I can tell you the following: John (Green Point, Long Island 1881) was the son of Daniel T. (aged 76 in 1883) of Fort Montgomery, N.Y. who was the son of Thomas (born on Long Island. Thomas may have been a brother of George, of Dorchester, Ma. No evidence of the countrary had been found (as of 1892), and the name Thomas was common in the neighborhood from which George Came. Thomas was born August 10, 1744 and died Nov. 30, 1819. I also find a Thorne of Highland Falls, N.Y. who was an Uncle to Andrew J. (Paterson N.J. 1884) who was the son of James (Born Orange Co. 1798) s. of Daniel. Thorn of Highland Falls had bro. Smith, in a family of 12 children, of whom Thorn only was living in 1887. Smith had Elizabeth (m. Thorn, Lucretia (m. Harvey Blakely), Benjamin Franklin (b. 18233) Thomas Smith (at Fond du Lac, Wis. 1887, unmarried). Not sure if any of that helped ?????????

I wish I could help you in your Weeks search, but so far can not find anything that jibes. The closest I can find of Weeks mentioned in my Weeks book, of so. Carolina....Robert S., trial justice and surveyor, Reevesville, S. Carolina. 1884, had a father living, also in Car. Also said there were many persons of the name in the Carolinas. Perhaps if you contacted all the town or city halls in the various areas, they might help, but it would cost....unless they couldn't find anything assaociated with your particular search, and then usually there is no charge. All my family are tracked from 1635 when they first came to Cape Cod, Massachusetts, but I can't trace them back to England.

My husband's family is riddled with Weeks on both sides of his family. His mother was Weeks, they came from north Florida, but, I believe that the original Weeks to come to the US was from Scotland and probably named Ebenezer as there were several Ebenezers in the family. His ggrandfather's name was Ira Ebenezer Weeks and was called Ebb. That's how he signed most everything and how he is listed in the census'. Guess the census taker couldn't spell Ebenezer. Margaret Have a great day, and don't forget to smile at someone, every time you give away a smile, it returns back to you multiple times. The only thing I know that you give away that gives back more. _________________________________________________________________ Add photos to your e-mail with MSN 8.
