1202 Elizabeth Condon is tentatively identified as the wife of James Martin. There is a record of a marriage in Christian County, Kentucky between James Martin and Elizabeth Condon in 1813. Gorin, Elizabeh (I8602)
 
1203 Elizabeth Moore Marshall died of a coronary thrombosis. Her obituary appears in the Daily Times News on 27 May 1970 Moore, Rebecca Elizabeth (I1414)

"On 01 Sep 1832, when he filed his application for a pension as a soldier of the Revolutionary War, Isaac Ferguson, son of Nimrod and Rebecka Hudson.....Farguson, claimed to have been born in Edgecombe County, North Carolina in 1757. He stated that when he enlisted in the army in 1777 his place of residence was Halifax County, VA....................He said that on 27 Oct 1779, in Halifax County, VA., he married Nancy (names not legible)...." 
Ferguson, Isaac (I8892)
 
1205 Elizabeth Perry, nee Bennett, is the daughter of Peter Bennett, first cousin of Thomas F. Bennett. She is the second wife of Thomas F. Bennett. His previous wife was Elizabeth Kerr, daughter of William Kerr. Family F103
 
1206 Elizabeth Pierce, daughter of Alice Pierce and a minor, on 1 November 1624, "made Choyce of Thomas Bennet her father in law [step father]" as her guardian to assume the "Guardianship and Administration of the lands and goods of John Philmoor." John Frederick Dorman, Adventurers of Purse and Person, Virginia 1607-1624/5, Vol 2, p. 819 (Baltimore Maryland:Genealogical Publishing Company, Fourth Ed. 2005) Family F135
 
1207 Elizabeth Ratliff married first to James W, Bennett. A Petition for Dower filed by Elizabeth in the November Court 1867 states that James W. Bennett died in August 1867. At the time of the census on 1870, she was living with her father Pendleton Ratliff. Joseph Richardson was also living in the Pendleton Ratliff household and was identified as a farm laborer. Elizabeth Ratliff Bennett married Joseph Richardson in about 1878. Joseph Richardson and his wife Lizzie are listed in the 1900 census in Rockingham County, North Carolina. Elizabeth's son, James W. Bennett is living in the same household. Other members of the household include 17 year old Anne K. Foster (who is identified as a niece of Joseph Richardson), and 8 year old Mable E. Bennett (who is identified as a granddaughter of Joseph Richardson). Mable E. Bennett appears to be the daughter of James William Bennett, one of the sons of Elizabeth Ratliff and James W. Bennnett. The relationship between Ann K. Foster and Joseph Richardson has not been verified. Ratliff, Elizabeth P. (I4747)
 
1208 Elizabeth Rollins was brought before the Caswell County Court to answer a complaint that she had borne an illegitimate child. Elizabeth refused to swear an oath and posted a bond with Nicholas Smith to provide for support of the child. In the 1860 census, Nicholas Smith is enumerated in the household next door to where Elizabeth Rowland is living. Rollin, Elizabeth (I1035)
 
1209 Elizabeth Sanders may have been a daughter of Robertson and Sarah Sanders of Rockingham County, NC and may have died in 1859, during childbirth. Joseph is living alone in 1860, in Locust Hill, NC. He did notmarry again. He died aafter 1900 in the Yancyville, NC Township. Sanders, Elizabeth (I6819)
 
1210 Elizabeth was born in the portion of Mecklenbeg Co. that later became Union County. The date of her birth is approximated based on the 1850 census. Shelby, Elizabeth “Betsy” (I4202)
 
1211 Elizabeth was not listed in the 1860 census taken on 13 Oct 1860 in Henry County, Tennessee. Lyon, Elizabeth (I8967)
 
1212 Elizabeth's tombstone inscription reads, "Elizabeth Bailey, wife of Charles Parks." Family F2176
 
1213 Elliot, p. 29. Family F733
 
1214 Ellison Starnes name at birth appears to be Ellison Cagle. Ellison is listed as Ellison Cagle in the 1850 census and as Ellison Starnes in the 1860 census. He is possibly the grandson of Esther Starnes. Starnes, Ellison (I4199)
 
1215 Elmer never married. Hunnicutt, Elmer Herbert (I6401)
 
1216 Elsie Bennett was single. Her sister Eunice Bennett was the informant on the death certificate. Bennett, Elsie (I4568)
 
1217 Elva's death records states that she was born 10 Apr 1821 in Johnson County, Tennessee. It also states that she died 23 Jan 1914 at the age of 83 years 9 months and 18 days. That yields a birthdate of 5 Apr 1831. The later date is consistant with census records, so I estimate her birth to be sometime in April, 1831. McQueen, Evelyn (I5763)
 
1218 Emily is listed as 26 years old. Young, Emily (I3937)
 
1219 Emily left a will in Rockingham Co., NC dated 14 Feb. 1868 and probated during the May session 1868. She made bequests to her brother Robert J. Young, niece Mary E. Carrell, and her unnamed mother. Mary E. Carrell is the daughter of Julia Ann Young and John L. Carrell. Young, Emily (I3937)
 
1220 Emily Lewis (22) is living in the household with Fleming and Sally Lewis. She was not in the household in the 1850 or 1860 census, which suggests that she is not a daughter. She may be a niece of Fleming and Sally Lewis, taken in after a brother of Fleming died. Lewis, Fleming L. (I4742)
 
1221 er death certificate lists her occupation as inmate. She is buried in the Bennett family cemetery in Reisdville, North Carolina. Bennett, Josephine Holderby “Josie” (I3985)
 
1222 Ernest Linwood Bennett and Lucille Yates were married on Thursday, Jan. 27, 1927 in Danville, Virginia. The marriage was performed by Dr. T. A. Smoot, pastor, at the home of John Richard Yates on Jefferson Ave. The bride was given away by her brother, Ophel Wade Yates. Arch Ferguson, brother-in-law of the groom, was best man. Family F3
 
1223 Escorted Merchant vessels out of Chesapeake to Amsterdam, Holland. On passage, they captured a large British merchantman and William Dove was one of eight men detailed to take command of the prize. They brought ship with four prisoners to Philadelphia in July 1780. Dove, William (I8922)
 
1224 est. based on 1850 census Kennon, James (I1709)
 
1225 estimate based on census Taylor, James D. (I3093)
 
1226 Evidence of this marriage is provided by the 1920 Census of Mecklenburg County, North Carolina. This census shows Levi with a wife named Emaline and a mother-in-law, Martha Flowers. In the 1900 Census, Levi is married to Laura Duffy Herron and has a niece, Emaline, living in his household. Emaline was a niece of Levi's second wife and later became his third wife. Family F2018
 
1227 Extra notes Bennett, Richard (I300)
 
1228 Family oral history states that Pickney Monroe Herron had a sister named Pasha (pronounced Pay sha) and that she married a Massey. She would therefore be a daughter of John Herron and Mary Martin. The 1880 census of Oconee Co., SC show a David and Patience Massey listed next to Mary Martin Herron and Pickney Herron. In this census Patience is 38 years old giving a birthdate of approximately 1842. She is not, however, listed in the household of John and Mary Herron in the 1850 census when she would have been of child of about 8 years old. On the other hand, the death certificate of John S. Massey, son of David and Patience, gives his mother's maiden name as Patience Herron.

Notes from another researcher:

Here is what I know about Patience after 1880: She is in Franklin Co. GA, Bryant's district by Pink in 1900. Her son John married NancyWilliams in Franklin Co. GA in 1903.

Then, in 1910, she and her son John Stephen Massey and his family arein Wilcox Co. GA. I have no idea why they are there- no one else in my lines was ever in Wilcox.

I cannot find Patience or her son John in 1920. I have looked and looked and looked. Then, in 1930, John S. Massey is back in Oconee county with his family. Patience is not with him-- which makes sense if she died in 1923. One of John's sons says he was born in Alabama. I have looked in Alabama for the family in 1920 without success.

John S. Massey and his wife Nancy Williams Massey are buried in Oconee Co. in Westminster First Baptist cemetery. But, I have never found any burial record for Patience.

Subject: WALKER: Alexander c1766-c1811 of Locust Hill
Date: Sun, 06 Jan 2002 14:10:11 +0000
In-Reply-To:

Hello, Roberta and any others out there interested in these WALKERs of
Caswell Co NC!

I too would love to determine who the father of this Alexander WALKER was,
and also who his mother was, and what the maiden surname of his wife was.

The second Alexander WALKER whom you mention is Alexander J. WALKER,
a grandson of the first Alexander WALKER whom you mention. Alex J. WALKER
was born in about 1815 in Caswell Co NC and was still alive in the 1880 US
Census in Locust Hill, Caswell Co NC; I don't know when or where he died; do any of
you know? He married Mary Ann DILL under a Caswell Co NC Marriage Bond
dated 26 December 1832. Who were her parents? The father of Alex J. WALKER
was John WALKER (c1794-1860s), who was the eldest son of the first
Alexander WALKER. The mother of Alex J. WALKER was Elizabeth BEAVER,
a daughter of the Revolutionary War soldier and pensioner Jeremiah BEAVER.

There were at least two Lewis PIKEs that I know of. One of them was involved
in deeds with these WALKERs for land which lay on the boundary line between
Caswell Co NC and Rockingham Co NC. In about 1802, a James WALKER filed suit
in the Superior Court of Caswell Co NC to eject Lewis PIKE from some land.
Before
this lawsuit could come to trial in 1802, the name of the plaintiff changed
to "Richard
SMITH on demise of James WALKER". Does this mean that James WALKER
DIED after filing suit but before this court record in which the plaintiff
was now
named as Richard Smith "ON DEMISE OF" James WALKER? In other words,
in law, is there any other meaning for the phrase "demise of" besides
"death of"?
I can find no other meaning in quite a few dictionaries. The court ruled in
favour of the defendant, Lewis PIKE, in the ejectment suit. However, in the
same session of the same court, Alexander WALKER sued Lewis PIKE for
slander, and won.

If "demise of" in this court record does mean "death of", then this is
proof that
the James WALKER who resided at Lennox Castle in the extreme eastern part
of Rockingham Co NC, who also had a son named Alexander WALKER of
very similar age to ours, cannot be the same James WALKER, because the
Lennox Castle one was alive in 1803 to write his last will, and this one in
the WALKER v PIKE lawsuit was dead by 1802. There is an incredible
similarity of forenames between that Lennox Castle family of WALKERs
and our WALKERs of Moon's Creek, western Caswell Co NC.
But so far I haven't been able to find a link.

One James WALKER in 1801 GAVE some land to a David WALKER, and
at the same time he SOLD some land to Alexander WALKER; neither of
these deeds states the relationship between grantor and grantee.

What ever became of William WALKER (born ca 1800), the third son of
Alexander and Mary WALKER of Moon's Creek / Locust Hill, Caswell
Co NC?

I have what I think might be a complete list of the grandchildren of the
Alexander WALKER who died in December 1810 or January 1811. You
mentioned in another email that you have all his children and grandchildren,
too. Shall we compare our lists and see if they are the same?

I'm pleased to have a fellow researcher to work with on these WALKERs.
Thanks for writing, Roberta. If any of the rest of you are searching for
these WALKERs, please feel free to jump into this conversation at any
time -- we need all the help we can get!

Walker, Alexander J. (I1042)
 
1242 George Dill died about 1878 without a widow or lineal descendants. His named heirs are his mother, Mrs. Elizabeth Dill, brothers C. Pinckney Dill and Noel Dill, heirs of deceased brother Garrison Dill, and Mary Crane and C. Pinckney Dill, Jr., the only children of another deceased brother. This unnamed brother appears to be Hiram Dill. (Greenville Co., SC Estate Records, Apartment 41, File 43)

The estate record of George Dill provides five heirs of John Dill, including George Dill. These are the same five heirs of John named in the estate of Runnels Dill. (Probate Judge Real Estate Book, GreenvilleCo, SC, 1841-1863, page 46) Both estate records exclude Manley Francis Dill. Records from South Carolina Accounts Audited show that John Dill was veteran of the State Line in the Revolutionary War and that he died leaving 6 children. (South Carolina Accounts Audited Reel 34,Frame 504) His widow and his three youngest children were added to the pension list of the State. The three youngest children were Runnels G. Dill, Hiram W. Dill, and Manley F. Dill. (South Carolina Accounts Audited Reel 34, Frame 506) It is not clear why Manley Francis Dill was not including among the heirs of John in these two estate records. 
Dill, George (I5653)
 
1243 George Lewis appears on the Pittsylvania County Land Tax List with 167 acres of land through 1809. In 1810 through 1815 he is listed as George Lewis dec'd with 167 acres. Lewis, George (I8866)
 
1244 George Michael Reitlehuber made will 24 October 1795, proven 22 July 1800 (Newberry Wills C-59). His will names children: George; Johannas; Mary Elizabeth, wife of Wm Follmer; Anna Mary, wife of Jacob Reisinger; Barbara; Solomay and Rosannah Reitlehover, wife of Wm Ballintine Reitlehover, George Michael (I6788)
 
1245 George N. Saunders lived in the vicinty of Reidsville his entire life and worked as a house painter. Saunders, George Norman (I72)
 
1246 George Richard Bennett lived in the Pigg River District and was married at the time of his death. Bennett, George Richard (I508)
 
1247 George Staton's name is listed variously in the records. Probate records of George Dill name Mrs. Richard Staton as an heir. (Greenville Co. Probate Court, Apt. 20, File 29) He is also listed as Richard Staten in the 1850 census of Spartanburg Co., SC. The obituary of Eliza J. Campbell, a daughter, names her parents as George Staton and Axie Dill Staton. (Greenville News, 5 Sep 1933, p. 5) The death certificate of Mrs. Susana Langley names her parents as Axie Dill and Richard Staten.

In the 1850 census of Spartanburg Co., SC Richard Staten, age, 23, islisted consecutively with the families of Reuben Staten, age 25, and James Staten, age 45. In the 1880 census of Greenville Co., SC Axie Staton, widow, is listed next to Reuben Staten and his wife Julia. It is possible that James Staten is the father of Richard and Reuben.

The Confederate Service records for Richard Staton are under the nameof J. R. Staten. He enlisted in the Confederate Army on 5 Nov 1862 in Greenville. He served in the SC 3rd (Palmetto) Battalion, Co. H. from his enlistment through April 1863 under Capt. Holtsclaw. He was transferred to Co. I under Capt. Bowden from May until his death. The muster roll shows he went AWOL on 26 Jun 1863. He died of fever on 3 Jul 1863 at home in Greenville. He apparently went home to die. On 23 Jan 1864 his widow, Axy Staten filed for final settlement.

1250 George Wood is identified as father of Susannah Wood in marriage record. After his death, His wife Mary and sons John and Thomas were granted administration of his large estate. It appears that the administrators were less than diligent in closing the estate, so Jesse Posey and his wife Susannah filed suit in Halifax County Court for division of the estate. The court records identify the wife and children of George Posey. Family F2478
