Helen, Yes, I have the pictures of the gravestone of Wm Warren Wilburn...someone scanned this to me last year...said that they got this from you. I believe that I asked how it was know that his middle name was Warren...and this was the response... Yes, I do believe that the name TANDY Rice has something to do with Lilue Tandy Wilburn...Richard Wilburn (b c 1717-1820) appears on some land records in Highland, OH along with TANDY HUGHES...And I know that he was married to a woman named HUGHES.. This TANDY name caught my attention and I remember that we had a discussion about this some time ago...If I had looked at these Goochland, VA records carefully, I would have picked this up a long time ago...Alas! As you know I zapped other postings from various genfourms so that you and other descendants of Wm W Wilburn could look and decide if you wanted to do some research on line to see what other clues would come up...I sent some WARREN records... In my opinion, the WARREN material that I posted from the internet unto this Wilburn website, has much to do with Wm WARREN Wilburn...And in fact, I spent nearly two days looking over material. I was quite satisfied with what I uncovered (due to the hard work of countless other people who shared their research work.)..I then posted what I believe names of people who are kin to Wm Warren Wilburn. I was sure that lots of descendants of William Warrne Wilburn would find this of real interest. WRONG! But I am pleased that you responded...At least I know that one person finds this of some interest...

As you may remember, one of the sons of William W. Wilburn (b.12 May 1782 Virginia) was named Lihue Tandy Wilburn and this line of Wilburns were very faithful in naming their children for other family members. We have not been able to find WWW's parents, nor the maiden name of his wife Frances. None of the other names you mention are in Williams immediate line, to my knowledge. Vicki, I have photos of WWW gravestone and that of his wife Frances, as well as FElix G. Wilburn and Felix Jr. I will send to you by separate email if you do not already have and are interested. Aside from everything the photos means to me, they establish the birth date and birth state of WWW with some certainty. The cemetery is on land owned at one time by WWW, and the stones are very old with newer engraving on the opposite side of the very old engraved side. email me at hdearing@hal-pc.org Helen Dearing. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Vikky Anders" <vikkya@msn.com> To: <WILBURN-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, October 12, 2002 5:26 PM Subject: [WILBURN-L] Richard Wilburn of Goochland, VA c 1750 > The following is info that I have gleamed re: Richard Wilburn of Goochland, VA > > It appears likely that he was married to Ann Whitlock and that his people lived in Middlesex Co VA c 1727.

Harvey Wilburn is son of Lewis Wilburn and Eliz Fitzpatrick Wilburn... I was recently surprised when I discovered via the internet that this was NOT the first Wilburn/McAdams kinship...And that there was a Wilburn McAdams b c 1795...and that this same McAdams line (some of them anyway) ended up in southern IN from NC...While other McAdams of this same family went to SC...So as always my work is cut out for me as I attempt to piece together some family ties... Now there is another example of connecting lines that seem to skip generations and then take up again. William Wilburn b. 1821 m Manerva Seals in Hancock Co TN??? In 1845??? I believe this is correct. Ronda, can you verify this? My database is not yet up and running... At any event, this posting that I am sending shows that there must have been other Seals and Wilburn kinships long before Wm Wilburn and Manerva Seals married. Anyone have any ideas? If anyone is interested in picking up some more clues re: the Solomon family and the origin of given name Solomon, let me know. I believe that these Seals and Wilburn families connect to the Solomons of Halifax, VA... Cheers, Vikkya@msn.com

Many Wilburns lived in Wilkes Co NC including my own ancestors, Lewis Wilburn and Susan Blevins Wilburn who were there c 1795. If anyone can add to this, please let me know..thanks vikkya@msn.com http://genforum.genealogy.com/cgi-bin/pageload.cgi?wilburn::baker::5419.html

Here is another Cheatum/Wilburn marriage. The person posting this message has a great website! He also has an ancestor named Richard Wilburn who was b in SC with ancestors (I believe in Goochland, VA)...???? vikkya@msn.com http://genforum.genealogy.com/cgi-bin/pageload.cgi?wilburn::cheatham::114.html

Looking for clues: William Warren Wilburn b VA and died in AR had a son named James who married a Beller.. I am posting this in the event that anyone finds this of interest. I noted on the Beller genfourm that a Beller also m a Cheatham...How this connects, I have NO idea?? But we do have a Beller/Wilburn marriage....a Wilburn/Cheatam marriage and then a Beller/Cheatham marriage. As I read the tea leaves this always means some kind of connection even if very remote and distant. But lends to clues that could bring us closer to finding what we ARE seeking. Let me know if this is helpful. Thanks Vikky at...Vikkya@msn.com http://genforum.genealogy.com/cgi-bin/pageload.cgi?wilburn::cheatham::584.html

HI Beth, Well, kiddo you caught me without my database up and running yet...Bummer! Here is what I know from the top of my head. Not much, but I can tell you that I am short on Phillips families. I have a few and they were married to Wilburns in Carter KY..c 1860. And that is about the sum total of my Phillips info...which would be of NO help to you. About the Hurleys...I am not certain when Wilburns and Hurleys hook up...but they do so in Claiborne co TN and appear to have several Wilburn/Hurley marriages before 1850. There are some folks more knowledgable about their Wilburn/Hurley ancestors than I am...so hopefully they will respond to your message. Beth you and I have lots of common ancestors..not surprising since many of our ancestors were living in Wilkes and Ashe co NC before and after 1800. Mine moved on and yours appear to have stayed put... I will note some of the surnames of families from this part of NC and TN that were allied with Wilburns...I know that you know some of these names better than I do.. Cause I learned some of this from you. Sizemore Stamper Whitt Skaggs Blevins......Known Long Hunters Osborne of varied spellings Hart.......Known Long Hunter trekked with Daniel Boone Wells Hammond or Hammon Harmon Gentry White Phelps Thanks for writing...and sorry that I could not help.

For those of you who read my last message and are for those of you who are interested in William Warren Wilburn, you might find this message of interest...And then you might not... I just wanted to point out that if you click on to this Rice/Senters/Tandy lines message, to keep in mind that Wilburns and Senters or Centers and also Brights were allied families...Yes, there was a Wilburn Senter... I have NO idea IF this is a clue for William Warren Wilburn researchers...but it might be. There has to be a reason why one of Wm Warren Wilburn's descendants was named Lihue TANDY Wilburn... Often, I find that I have the best leads and clues from given middle names...families that are more recent, I used to pass over as clueless, when I went seeking older lines. Boy! Was that dumb of me, or what???? Now I want to learn ALL middle names because they are great clues....AND sometimes, I can find lines right in too! Which is even better..

The following is info that I have gleamed re: Richard Wilburn of Goochland, VA It appears likely that he was married to Ann Whitlock and that his people lived in Middlesex Co VA c 1727. Many records in Christ Church Parish show names of families that Wilburns later married into. (families who lived in Middlesex, VA c 1700-1730. Margaret Wilburn m Paul Philpott in Middlesex Co VA in 1727 And this no doubt explains why there were later generations of people named Wilburn Philpott. Elizabeth Wilburn m Robert Guttery in Middlesex Co VA in 1728. There were later Wilburn/Guttery marriages...one in Amherst Co VA in 1778. The latter appears to be a grandson of Richard and Ann Whitlock Wilburn... Note: there was also a Wilburn Whitlocks from VA. (By 1850, Lewis Whitlock was living in the home of Burrell Wilburn of Carter KY)...This is just one example of what I mean by families who continued to marry into each others lines for hundreds of years... Wm Wilburn, son of Richard Wilburn and whatsherface?? Hughes (I think her name might have been Suzannah) m Eda Guttery...Wm and Eda later settled into Giles, VA on Sugar Run Mountain and Wolfe Creek...(now known as Wilburn Valley) near Pearisberg. Wm also had a brother named Richard.. Back to Richard Wilburn who married Ann Whitcock and later died in debt in Goochland, VA in 1756. In 1743, Richard Wilburn was living in Lousia Co VA near South Anna River...his property bordered on Ragland's line...which might explain why there was also a Wilburn Ragland... John Page also lived in Lousia Co VA...and he sold land to Richard Wilburn that was located on Lickinghole Creek in Goochland, VA...The deed was recorded on 19 Mar 1750 for 100 acres of land adjoining the lands of Turner Christian, Charles Toney, Thomas Stark and John Layne. It was witnessed by Wm Williams, Giles Letcher and James Gresham. Richard also lived very near Charles Rice...Charles Rice died in Goochland, VA in 1785. Please note names in his will: Wife: Mary sons--Charles, BASIL, TANDY, WM and Holman dau...Molly TRICE witness to his will were: Daniel and Wm Borman... We also know that there were many Rice/Wilburn marriages. Hence Rice Wilburn...there must be at least four or five Rice Wilburns... I cite this due to kinships of neighbors....just about everyone who lived near anyone did so because of kinships... One can see this from those who signed Richard Wilburn land deed. His son Thomas Wilburn m Christian Page... There was also a Wilburn/Toney marriage in Powhaton co VA too... Not all Wilburns with roots in VA descend from Richard Wilburn and Ann Whitlock Wilburn... There was also a John Wilburn who m Suzannah Preston c 1740 in VA. I suspect (not proven that This John and Richard were brothers.) And I think (that he might be the John Wilburn who later died in Lunenburg, VA in 1757..) Dunno??? In fact, there were a number of other Wilburn famlies of this era who lived in VA...And I am convinced that they were all related...Not everyone agrees with this contention. I cannot prove that they were, and those who disagree cannot prove that they were not...And that's it from San Diego. But for those of you who do have some Goochland, VA ties...then think Pocahontas and her family...because we surely have some kinships. Any questions??? Anything to ADD???? Please let me hear from you. Vikkya@msn.com Cheers!

Note that one other researcher believes Trader Hughes name to be Rees Hughes...This would also be my conclusion based upon some other records that I reviewed...which makes me all the more convinced that this is the same Hughes line that married into Richard Wilburn's family...
