Can you chase that branch back to Lubec, Maine or to New Brunswick.

I don't know. The book only included the states of: ME; NH, VT, MA, RI, CT, NY, PA, MD, VA, NC, SC. Georgia wasn't included because its 1790 census has been lost.

I notice that New Jersey isn't in this list. My Willcocks family came to New Jersey in 1734 and is there to this day, producing many descendants who were there in 1790. Why aren't they accounted for ?

A review of 1790 census data shows the following information concerning the Wilcox surname and variants of that name. This was a review of the 1790 records of 12 states. Average family size - 6.1 Heads of family - 386 All other members - 1956 Heads of household were divided among the states as follows: NH - 9; VT - 21; MA - 38; RI - 69; CT - 146; NY - 65; PA - 13; MD - 9; VA - 3; NC - 10; SC - 3.

Hello Janet, I'm living in Roanoke Virginia so if anyone needs anything from this area please let me know. Sandra Harter

I will copy it exactly as it was in the deed book 9 page 457: If there are misspelled word I am sorry as I copied it as was. Page 457. Feb 20,1764 from William Booker of County of Prince Edward, to Peter Beasley of Amelia County, for 100 E, a certain track of land in L on the head of Morton's Cr; about 150 acres bounded by Morton, Joseph Bass, Dobbs line now Hawkins line, Flourny. Signed- William Booker. Wittness-Charles Allen,Daniel Hankins, Thomas Foster, Frs Petty,James Foster, Henry Isbell. Recorded April 12, 1794. Some of this may not make sense but that is the way it was. The E after 100 was a weird writing so must be some kind of symbol for money back then. Info on the Collier's: Page 152 Nove 4,1762 from Nathaniel Collier of Brunswick County, to Howell Collier of L, for 240 E, a certain tract of land in L on the east or lower side of Dockerys Creek, about 370 acres bounded by the Whetstone Branch, a new line made bu William collier Deced to Dockery Creek, a dividing line between William Lucas and the said Nathaniel Collier, the various courses of said Lucas' line, to the beginning, including all the lands devised by william Collier unto the said Nathaniel Collier lying on dockerys Creek and adjoining therto. signed-Nathanile Collier.Wittness-John Speed, Henry Delony, Dannis Larke, William Lucas, Robert Cunningham. Recorded June 9, 1763. Delivered John Ballard Jr.(Not stated why it was delivered to Ballard) Hope this helps you. Janet Ferris of Woodbridge,Va Hopes this helps you, Janet Ferris of Woodbridge,Va

Charley, This certainly sounds like the same Isaac as that is the birthdate that my GGAunt had written down for her grandfather. She states in her letter that she couldn't trace back any farther because her grandfather didn't remember his parents or know anything about them. I definitely will get my hands on that book and maybe open some new doors. My cousin is out of town so I'll have to wait to see if she has anything in her mother's papers. Thanks for all the help listmates. << Now you have me wondering?????? Could your Isaac have been a son of William Willcocks of Nelson Co., KY.?? Wulfeck's book say Isaac was born 15 Dec. 1794 and you say his father died when Isaac was 7 years of age - that would work out (1794 + 7) to 1801. That is the year William Willcocks died in Nelson Co., KY. >>

Hi Charley, Thanks for the Wilcox info. On the 1850 census, old Abe said he was b in PA but if you look at a map of the country for that era, I think it would be difficult to tell what was VA, PA, MD or maybe even OH. His gdau said she thought Abe was b in KY. I don't think any white baby's were born in KY before 1777. There's an Isaac Wilcox who m in N.C. 1773. Five of the first names in this family are the same as five names in Abe's family. Also this Isaac and his wife came from PA. Maybe just coincidence.

Bill in Sunny Phoenix: The family names you mention are also found in William Willcocks descendants. He had son William, Isreal aka EZRA and Zerah. Ezra had sons William, Charles, John, Hardin, Isaac and Thomas. Isaac had sons James, William, Samuel, Richard and Isaac. William Willcocks was born 1744/45 per a 1799 Nelson Co. Court Deposition from William where in he stated he was about 55. His son Ezra was married 15 Apr 1794. Abraham was apparently about Ezra's age. It is intriguing that they all lived so close to each other - this often suggest a family tie. Charley F. Wilcox From Sunny Mesa, AZ.

This sentence makes me wonder: >This GGAunt indicates that Isaac came from KY and was >separated from his family during the war of 1812 at about the age of 7. Abraham Wilcox m Mary Polly Turner in Mercer Co., KY 1795. Polly was given in marriage by members of the Boucher family which might indicate she had been previously married. Based on later census, it looks like Abraham was b 1773 so he was 22 years old. Abraham and Polly moved to Muhlenberg Co., KY. They appear on the 1810 census with several children. A Muhlenberg court record indicates that Polly sold all the pots and pans. It sure looks like the marriage broke up and she was getting ready to travel light. Abraham enlisted in the war of 1812 in Scott Co., KY. It appears that he didn't go back to Polly and the kids after the war. I never did find out what these kids of the first marriage were named or where they went but they were probably b between 1796 - 1812. Abe went to MO and remarried by 1819 (probably ca 1813). He named the male ch of his 2'nd marriage: Isaac b1821, John b 1828, and William b 1837. If anything fits, please let me know-- Bill in sunny Phoenix ________________________________________________________________ YOU'RE PAYING TOO MUCH FOR THE INTERNET!

Hi List, A check of the LDS Family History Library Catalog CD gives the following information on the book mentioned by Charley. Wilcoxson & Allied Families (Wilcoxson, Wilcoxen, Wilcox) by Wulfeck, Dorothy Ford. Call number 929.273W643wd. This is found on film number 1036435 Item 2 which can be ordered from any LDS Family History Center for a rental fee of about $3.00 U.S. The film is usually held for viewing at the local Family History Center for a period of two or three weeks. Dave Leavenworth in Spokane, WA.

Charlotte: Now you have me wondering?????? Could your Isaac have been a son of William Willcocks of Nelson Co., KY.?? Wulfeck's book say Isaac was born 15 Dec. 1794 and you say his father died when Isaac was 7 years of age - that would work out (1794 + 7) to 1801. That is the year William Willcocks died in Nelson Co., KY. The location where William lived was very close to Harden Co. and since Harden was formed from Nelson - they appear first in Nelson then in Harden - didn't really move but the counties did. Your Isaac bought land in Montgomery Co., IN. (have copies of the receipts from Indiana State Archives) in 1828 - apparently near Crawfordsville - since that is the birthplace listed by Wulfeck. She also says he received a Military Land Grant in ILL - presumably near Raritan as that is where he died ?? May 1865. Wulfeck does not specify what war the military grant was from but it could have been for the War of 1812 since your Isaac would have been about 18 years old in 1812. I would suggest you ask your local library to arrange an inter-library loan of a copy of Wulfeck's book "Wilcoxson, Wilcoxen, Wilcox" published by Cemmercial Services of Waterbury, Ct 1958. There is a 6 generation history (about 5 pages) begining on page 422. This might answer some of your questions. Charley F. Wilcox
