AND QUEENS OF NORMANDY; ENGLAND; SCOTLAND; FRANCE; ITALY AND GERMANY
The genealogy
below from Medric Troy Bell to William and Rossanna Keathly and to John and
Margaret Bell is the work of The Tennessee - Keathley Family History
1622-1985 by Farrell Dee McCallister.
MEDRIC TROY BELL MARRIED JESSIE
LUTHER NOE
SONS AND DAUGHTERS OF THE AMERICAN
REVOLUTION
MEDRIC TROY BELL'S Dad's side--THE BELL'S
1. John and Margaret Bell settled in the New River area of what is now
Montgomery Co, VA in 1762 and had 8 children.
2. Robert Bell, b.
1759 (oldest child of John and Margaret Bell) married Keziah and had 6
children.
(Robert was a Revolutionary War soldier, he was drafted a month or so after
its onset, his
Revolutionary War Records are in the National Archives in Washington, D.C.)
3. John Bell d. 1839/40
(oldest child of Robert and Keziah) married Mary Vineyard in Oct 1818
(She is the daughter of George Vineyard (George was a Revolutionary War
Soldier who filed for Survivor's Pension Application File1844 in the State of
Virginia) and they had 10 children. John died shortly after the
birth of his youngest child Cambell.
4, Cambell "Uncle Cam" Bell b. 1839 married first to Marinda
(Mary) Farmer and they had 6
children, then married Isabelle Barnes b. 9/2/1860, d. 10/27/1925 of Mt
Vernon, Ar and
had 12 children.
5. Charles (Charley) Cambell Bell, b. 7/19/1889, d. 2/13/1965 (son of
Cambell and based
on the fact Charles father was 50 years of age when he was born, I am assuming
his
mother would be Isabelle Barnes and it is not known what number child he was),
Charles first married Atlanta Betrice Keathley b. 2/1/1889, d. 5/12/1925 (She
is the
daughter of John Armstrong Keathley) and they had 9 children, he then married
A? Blue and they had no children.
MEDRIC'S MOTHER'S SIDE - THE KEATHLY'S
1. Henry
Keathley b. 1793 (Spelled "KEATHLY" in the 1820 census)
married Sarah b. 1797. and resided in White County, TN. They had 10
Children
(Note: The Keathley clan came from England; however, it is not known
which of Henry's forefathers or he himself
came
from
England)
2, William
Keathley, b. 1830, d. 1905. Born and buried in White Co, TN. (The 1860
White County Census has him being born in Indiana and being 27 years of age--placing his birth year as 1833, however in
the 1880 census, he and his mother and father are
listed
as being Tennessee born and he was at the age of 53, which would place
his year of birth at 1827. Although there are
other
William
Keathleys in White County, these two were listed with exactly same
family members. He Married 1: Rosea
A....?
1837,
married 2: Alie Mahala Swindle b. 1853 on 4/20/1867.
William had 11 children. William and his older brother were Civil War
soldiers and fought with the Co I and Co D of the 13th Calvary Brigade
at Duncan's Field near Shiloh Church on April 6, 1862 and during this
skirmish that William was almost fatally wounded after he got caught
in a close place and made a run for it and hid behind a brick church
building---which was hit by a 24-pound mortar shell---thereby knocking
a brick loose and hitting him in the forehead. William, after the war
was visiting a relative across the Caney Fork River from his home in
White County, TN. During his visit, which would have been normal in
that time, to have been a number of days of visiting events such as
that only took place vary rarely, heavy rains up river took
place---hence, swelling the rivers torrents. When he went to return
home, the ferry operator was not home, which left William to wade the
river with his horse. The relatives of William with whom he visited
had assumed he had reached home and the relatives at home never knew
he had left to return home, so, about three days later, his body was
found down river, clutched to a log with a portion of his face eaten
by turtles.
4. James
Armstrong Keathley b. 8/12/1861 d. 7/29/1927 (5th child of Willam
Keathly and Rosea A
(?)) born in White County TN
married Eleanor Ordelia Brown b. 2/30/1865, d. 7/20/1958and had 6
children (Eleanor was the
daughter of George and Mary Brown) .
5. Atlanta
Beatrice Keathley b. 12/1/1889, d. 5/12/1925, oldest child of James
and Ordelia,
married Charles (Charley)

Here
is where it becomes interesting regarding the parents of Eleanor
Comis Cummings.
Her father is Joseph
Cummings, b. 1762 who is the son of Malachi
Cummings b. 1744 and Verlinda Taylor b. abt 1784{1767}
and her Mother is Rosanna Collier b. 1765 who is the
daughter of John Collier b. abt 1740{17Jan1740}
and Grizelda Taylor b. 1740/56. Verlinda
Taylor and Grizelda Taylor were sisters and daughters of James
Taylor b. abt 1720{1715/1732}. Thus, Joseph Cummings and
Rosanna Collier were first cousins.

*1. There is long standing controversy regarding
Nancy
Hanks
Lincoln
's
heritage.. A recent mitochondrial DNA test of descendants of daughters
of Joseph Hanks, daughters of Lucy Hanks Sparrow, and two Shipley
sisters show a match between Hanks and Sparrow and no match to the
Shipleys, making it very likely Nancy Hanks is the illegitimate
daughter of Lucy Hanks.[4]
Information from the Shipley
and
Berry
families, as well as some historical sites, claim that
Nancy
's
mother was Lucy or Lucey Shipley, sister to Rachel Shipley Berry
.
Nancy
's
father may have been James Hanks
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nancy_Hanks_Lincoln_heritage
*2. Historians generally believe that Nancy Hanks was the
illegitimate daughter of Lucy Hanks, born into the Joseph
Hanks family and
married into the Sparrow family.[2][3] There
is no generally accepted theory about who
Nancy
's
father may have been.
*3
based on 1 and 2 above, it is concluded Nancy Hanks is indeed a
direct descent of Joseph Hanks through his Son James or his daughter
Lucy, regardless, the mitochondria DNA tests confirms Joesph is her
grandfather.

- Edmund made a gift deed of 230 acres to
Lenard Tarrant of St. Anne's Parish
- Some time before Nov 1719, Edmund settled
in St. John's Parish in adjacent King
William County. This is additional proof
that his father died in King & Queen

while his brothers vetured northwest.

Notes |
- (1) According to Roberts, Gary Boyd,
Ancestors of American Presidents, 2009
Edition, Boston, MA: New England Historic
Genealogical Society, 2009, pp. 16, 33, James
TAYLOR, Sr. is "said to be from Carlisle,
England."
(2) The compiler has found no documentation
proving that James TAYLOR, Sr. was, in fact,
from Carlisle, Cumberland, England.
(3) The following message was posted by
"JohnRoe51" to the Cumberland,
England Message Board on Ancestry.com on
October 28, 2000, and was revised on June 9,
2002:
According to a Taylor book called "From
Log Cabins to the White House", by Mary
Taylor Brewer (1985) my ancestor, James Taylor
who died in King & Queen Co., Virginia
(USA), in 1698 was descended from the Taylors
"of Pennington Castle" near
Carlisle, Cumberland Co., England. His
grandparents were alleged to be Thomas Taylor
and Margaret Swinderly and his parents were
alleged to be John Taylor (b. 1607) and his
wife Elizabeth __?__. The alleged children of
Thomas Taylor and Margaret Swinderly were all
listed with exact birth (or baptism) dates
suggesting that there is a parish register or
bible record somewhere in the Cumberland Co.,
England area from which these exact dates were
abstracted.
I have researched this allegation. Here is
what I believe can be documented. A John
Taylor with wife Elizabeth __?__ died in
Lancaster Co., VA (not PA), in 1651. He seems
to be the John Taylor who was born in 1607 in
England. He had a brother, James Taylor (b. 12
Feb. 1609/10) who appears to be the James
Taylor, surgeon, who married Elizabeth
Underwood and died in Surry Co., VA, in 1655.
[He had an affair with his servant, Ursula
Kettle, in 1651 which produced a bastard son,
James Taylor, who was born in 1652 in Surry
Co., VA. He also apparently mistreated his
wife physically (and emotionally) who sued him
for legal separation in 1653-1654.]
I have come up with absolutely no
documentation to suggest the possibility that
my James Taylor who died in King & Queen
Co., VA, was descended from, or in any way
connected with, either the John Taylor who
died in Lancaster Co., VA, in 1651 or the
James Taylor who died in Surry Co., VA, in
1655. I frankly do not believe the allegation
of a connection.
Here is what I have been able to learn of
Pennington Castle. Apparently the Penningtons
lived in a castle in Cumberland Co., England,
in the 11th-12th Century timeframe. The castle
apparently was abandoned then and fell into
ruin. They then took up home in some other
castle, which name is escaping me now. I know
of no proven connection between the Taylor
family of England or Virginia and the
Pennington family of England or Virginia (if
there was a Pennington family in VA).
I think the whole Pennington situation can be
traced to somebody's misinterpretation of
English heraldry records. There is a ring
which has been handed down several generation
in a branch of the Taylor family who directly
descends from James Taylor who died in King
& Queen Co., VA, in 1698. The family rumor
is that this James Taylor owned the ring and
wore it (or it was a seal ring). The unique
thing about the ring is that it had a Taylor
Crest and Motto on it. The Crest was a naked
right arm, bent at the elbow, with the hand
holding an arrow. The Motto was "Consequitur
Quodcunque Petit". The only English
heraldry record I can find of this Crest and
Motto was the line of the Headfort Taylors of
Ireland who received a grant of a Coat of Arm
in 1704 with this Crest and Motto. Lineage is
provided back from this Taylor to a Thomas
Taylor of Ringmer, Sussex Co., England
(1559-1629), but no indication that this Coat
of Arms, Crest or Motto was used in the family
prior to the 1704 grant. Even assuming that it
was used as far back as Thomas Taylor of
Ringmer, there is no evidence connecting this
Taylor family to either Thomas Taylor and
Margaret Swinderly or to James Taylor who died
in King & Queen Co., VA, in 1698.
This is only the beginning of the story of the
Pennington confusion. In 1826, a Pringle
Taylor of the House of Pennington,
Southampton, Hampshire Co., England, received
a Coat of Arms with a Crest which was very
similar to the Headfort Taylor Coat of Arms
and Crest, but with significant distinctions.
The arm in the Crest was in armour, not naked,
and the hand was in a gauntlet and was holding
a javelin, not an arrow. The Motto for Pringle
Taylor was identical to the Headfort Taylor
Motto. From what I have been able to learn of
English heraldry, it is very dangerous to
assume that because the Pringle Taylor Coat of
Arms and the Heatfort Taylor Coat of Arms had
similarities (with significant distinctions)
that the two Taylor lines were related. There
is no other known evidence I have found to
prove that the Headfort Taylors and Pringle
Taylor are related. More importantly, there is
no evidence to establish that Pringle Taylor
had a genealogical connection with the Taylors
of Cumberland Co., England.
But, what about the James Taylor ring with the
Crest and Motto? My working assumption is that
a descendant of James Taylor, probably in the
late 18th Century or early 19th Century,
looked up the Taylor Coat of Arms, Crest and
Motto in a heraldry index book and found the
Headfort Taylor information. They adopted this
Crest and Motto as their own and had the ring
manufactured, without any genealogical
information to prove that their Taylor line
linked with the Headfort Taylor line. The
story grew from there, much the same as a
story grows during the game of "pass the
secret around a circle" to where the ring
was existing in the late 1600s and worn by
James Taylor who died in King & Queen Co.,
VA, in 1698 and/or used by him as a seal ring.
[I doubt this ring was ever used as a seal
ring because the Crest and Motto are correctly
oriented on the ring as you look at it which
would not produce a correct impression in wax
for a seal]. Then somebody else found the
Pringle Taylor heraldry which seemed close
enought to the Headfort Taylor heraldry and
assumed (incorrectly) a connection. Then
somebody assumed (incorrectly) that Pennington
House, Southampton, Hampshire Co., England,
was really Pennington Castle near Carlisle,
Cumberland Co., England. Then somebody found
some parish register in or near Carlisle Co.,
England with the children of Thomas Taylor and
Margaret Swinderly and "presto" all
these Taylors were descended from a common
ancestor. Then, since there was nobody else
who could be established to be the father of
James Taylor who died in King & Queen Co.,
VA in 1698, he must have been a son of one of
the children of Thomas Taylor and Margaret
Swinderly since two of the children (John
& James) seem to have been immigrants to
VA during the right timeframe to be James
Taylor's father. I admit I can't prove that my
working assumption is any more correct (or
incorrect) than the other unproven assumptons
made by earlier researchers which led to the
genealogy reported in "From Log Cabins to
the White House" and some other accounts
of the James Taylor family.
My research of James Taylor who died in King
& Queen Co., VA, in 1698 shows that he
first appears in New Kent Co., VA, the parent
county of King & Queen Co., VA, in 1675.
There is a James Taylor who was listed as a
headright of a Leonard Chamberlain who
received a land patent in New Kent Co., VA, in
1671. It is quite possible that James Taylor
who died in King & Queen Co., VA, in 1698
was imported to VA from England shortly before
1671. There is a 1686 land patent to James
Taylor in New Kent Co., VA, which mentions
that part of the patented land was granted to
him in 1675 by Thomas Reinolds (sic). There
are no associates of this James Taylor in New
Kent Co., VA, or King & Queen Co., VA,
which connect with the Taylors of Lancaster
Co., VA, or Surry Co., VA who died in 1650s.

"Taylor-Chew-Downs-Brewster
Families," Historical Southern Families,

Genealogical Publishing Co., Inc., 1995, pp.
199-201:
An ancient legend carries the Taliaferro (Taillefer)
family back to Julius Caesar and his campaign
in Gaul. The tradition is that Caesar while
inspecting his camp at twilight was surrounded
by Gallic warriors bent upon taking his life.
Admiration for Caesar's bravery caused the
leader of the band to spare his life. In the
course of the campaign Caesar's captors became
his captives. Caesar, recognizing the man who
had spared his life, rewarded him by making
him his attendant and permitting him to bear
arms - a privilege not allowed to any but
Roman soldiers, and thus the name Taliaferro
originated from the Latin "telum," a
dart, and "ferro," to bear.
A branch of this family wandered to Normandy,
thence to England with William the Conqueror.
A member of the family, Baron Taliaferro (or
Taillefer) fought with the Conqueror and
became known to history as "the Hero of
Hastings." After William the Conqueror
won the English throne he made large grants of
land to Baron Taillefer in County Kent, and
the Baron and his descendants who possessed
these lands were known as the Earls of
Pennington. In England in this branch of the
family the name became Taillefer, Taylefer and
finally Taylor.
James Taylor I, immigrant, born 1615/16, at
the ancestral home, "Pennington,"
about twenty miles from Carlisle, England,
came to America and Virginia in 1635. He
settled on Chesapeake Bay between the York
(James) and North Rivers. He married first,
about 1666, in Va, Frances Walker, who died
1680; married secondly, Aug 10 1682, Mary
Gregory, who died after 1696. James Taylor I
died in New Kent, Sept 10 1698. James Taylor I
served as a member of the House of Burgesses
in 1702[?] from King and Queen County; Sheriff
of New Kent Co, 1690, and was vestryman of St.
George's Parish. He was an extensive land
owner and was prominent in the colony.
A seal ring which had belonged to James Taylor
I and which bore the crest and seal of the
Taylor Arms has been handed down to the
present generation. With this seal ring has
also descended a legend to the effect that on
a certain occasion when the King of England
was enjoying a chase in one of his royal
forests, a wild boar, hard driven, turned upon
the royal huntsman, whereupon there sprang to
his defense one of the knights who slew the
boar. The King out of gratitude gave the
knight a crest, the distinguishing mark of
which was an uplifted hand, accompanied by the
motto: "Consequitur quod cumque
petit." ("He Obtains Whatever He
Seeks.")

THE
BELL FAMILY
<?xml:namespace
prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office"

http://familytreemaker.genealogy.com/users/c/r/a/Robert-G-Crabtree/FILE/0008page.html
John
and Margaret
Bell
and their family moved to the New River about 1762, and settled on
the east side near the mouth of Little River.
John Bell purchased 65 acres from Reuben Ratcliff in 1771,
the same tract that had been granted to John Miller in 1753.
John Bell appears on the tithable list of William Ingles in
1770. In 1774 he added by
survey, a tract of land on the east side of the New River,
containing 74 acres. This
land was granted to Robert Bell in 1794 (Summers, Annals,
p. 545; Kegley, Tithables,
p.3; Fincastle County
surveys; Loyal Land Company records).
Bell
appears as a member of Skaggs' Company in 1774, and in Trigg's
Company in 1777 (Kegley, Soldiers;
Kegley, Militia).
In the summer of 1774 many families left New River because of
Indian troubles; others were forted at Bell's Meadows and although
the exact location is not given, it appears likely that this was at
John Bell's home. The
families mentioned by name who forted there included Ninian, Cloyd,
Smith and Crouch, who were members of the community on the west side
of the New River (Preston Papers, Draper Mss., 3QQ54).
The
date of the death of John Bell is not known, and no will or
settlement has been found, but in 1816 his heirs are listed in a
deed in Montgomery County (Book F, p. 225).
These heirs sold the 65 acres on Little River and an
additional survey made for John Bell in 1790, granted in 1797 and
containing 122 acres. The
lands were sold to Martin Elliott with the dower reserved for the
widow, Margaret Bell. The
heirs named were Robert Bell and his wife Keziah, John Bell and his
wife, Lucy (married 1786, the daughter of Thomas and Catherine
Pate); William Bell and Polly, his wife; Curtis Elliott and Betsy,
his wife; Abijah Whitt and Sally, his wife; Daniel Pate and Jane,
his wife (married 1799); William Searles and wife, Nancy (married
1796, name given as Sarles); Pleasant Hurt and his wife Polly
(Montgomery County Marriage Records).
Robert
Bell, Sr. (1759-1841) was a long-time resident of Little River
community, having moved to the area when he was about three years of
age (Rev. War pension record S8065, National Archives).
The records show that he was the son of John Bell, Sr. and
his wife, Margaret, who lived in the same community.
They were one of the few families who appeared to have
remained in the settlement during the summer of 1774 (See John Bell
sketch above).
Robert
Bell was drafted to serve in the Revolutionary War about one month
after it began. He served one
month under Aaron Skaggs. He
marched to Bluestone where he was stationed to guard Mares' and
McGuire's stations against inroads of Indians.
There was no regular encounter with the Indians, but they had
to drive them off and repel them frequently.
About three months after this service he was called to guard
the same stations again, and served another month.
He served under Colonel William Preston with Mace Tacey as
his sergeant. The third tour
was under Captain Burnes, which time he served about one month.
He
marched against the Tories at Buffalo Pond and from there to Collins
(?Carrons's) stone mill in Wythe County (at that time Fincastle) and
from the mill to the Lead Mines. He
was drafted a fourth time, and served under Abram Trigg who was the
captain and marched to the Mulberry fields on the "Big Adkin"
[Yadkin] and from there to Shallow Ford, down the Yadkin where they
had a battle with the Tories. He
helped carry the wounded from Shallow Ford to the Moravian Towns,
where he left them under the care of physicians.
Joseph Cloyd was the major and William Preston the colonel.
This last time he served about a month and a half.
Preston himself was present on this tour (S8065 Rev. War
Pension).
For
this service he was allowed a pension of $20 per annum beginning
March 4, 1831. A notation on
the records stated he was paid under the Act of 6 April, 1838 from
Sept. 4, 1839 to Sept. 4, 1840. Notification
to discontinue the pension was given July 21, 1841 which was
probably about the time of Robert Bell's death.
In
1783 Robert Bell's lands were surveyed and he appears as owner of
264 acres opposite Dunkard Bottom, and 50 acres on Little River
(Montgomery County Survey). In
1788 Thompson Farmer sold him 50 acres near Little River and the New
River which were "to include the salt peter cave."
He also obtained a grant for 340 acres.
Robert Bell, Sr. and his wife, Keziah, sold 130 acres part of
this grant to Jeremiah Bell in 1810.
In 1814 they sold 100 acres to John Bell, who also received
Jeremiah's land in 1816. In
1826 Robert Bell, Jr. received 130 acres and in 1828 William Bell
received 100 acres. In 1836
the 10 acres where Robert Bell, Sr. lived was sold to John Bell with
the reservation that all land cleared and all in cultivation be
reserved for his natural lifetime. William
Bell and his wife, Nancy Vineyard (married 1820), were settled in
Callaway County, Missouri and sold their land to John Bell
(Montgomery County surveys; Montgomery County Deed Books D, p. 705;
E, p. 468; F, p. 214; K, p. 178; M, pp.132, 68, 69).
Although
there is no relationship stated in these deeds, it appears that
Robert Bell, Sr. was dividing his estate among his sons Jeremiah,
John, Robert, Jr., and William. Because
all of Robert's property was disposed of before his death, he left
no will and there was no inventory of his estate.
Marriage
records of Montgomery County show that Jeremiah Bell, son of Robert
Bell, married Elizabeth Hall, daughter of Asa Hall in 1807.
John Bell,
son of Robert Bell, married Polly
Vineyard, daughter of George Vineyard in 1818.
Robert Bell, Jr. married Sarah Vineyard, another daughter of
George Vineyard in 1820. William
Bell married Nancy Vineyard with Robert Bell and George Vineyard as
securities. Nancy may have
been another daughter of George Vineyard.
Marriage records show that at least two daughters of Robert
Bell were married in Montgomery County.
These were Margaret who married Jonathan Hall in 1800 and Patsy
Bell who married William
Farmer in 1812. There may
have been other children not mentioned.
The
Bell family graveyard on a ridge south of Dunkard Bottom is the last
resting place for Robert
Bell, Sr. who died in 1841, and his wife Keziah,
who died in 1836, age 85. George
Bell, born 1820, died 1844, and Martha
Bell, wife of George
Bell who died about 1855 age 40 are also buried there.
John Bell who
died in 1839 at age 50 is in the same cemetery.
Jeremiah
Bell died about 1831, and his estate was appraised in July of that
year (Montgomery County Will Book 5, p. 59).
Among the many interesting items listed in the Jeremiah Bell
estate were the following: cupboard
and cupboard ware, 6 tin cups, 4˝ dozen fish hooks and some lines,
candlestick and "moles," stone jugs, and spice mortar,
table, trunk, bedsteads and furniture, one with curtains, a figured
"counterpin," one pair of cotton cards, one bed quilt, one
little bedstead and furniture, 3 books, a water pail, 7 old chairs,
augers, gimblet, knives, saddle and bridle, man's saddle, flax
wheel, 4 reels, 5 pairs gears, one loom, shuttle and temples, one
big wheel, and 21 spools, one reel and spolling frame, a table and
bread tray, a water can, a tin bucket, kitchen cupboard, 2 pots, one
oven with lid, a smoothing iron, fire shovel and pot hooks, 6 crocks
and a churn, a washing tub and barrel, 3 reap hooks, hoes, wedges,
axes, plows, "scythers," cradle, 12 hogs, one horse, 16
sheep, 5 pigs, 2 milk cows and calves, 2 young heifers, one "canoo,"
lead, powder, and a trumpet.
John
Bell, son of Robert, Sr.,
remained in the Little River community and died there about 1839.
He left no will but his widow, Mary or Polly, is mentioned in
Pulaski County deeds during the 1840's and early 50's.
Most of the heirs sold there interest in the place to John
Grayson. The heirs listed
were Crockett Bell and his wife, Elizabeth; Noah Showalter and his
wife, Elizabeth; George Bell
and his wife, Martha;
Kennerly B. Warnacott and his wife, Margaret (Margaret had purchased
a share from George Bell); Joseph Warden and wife Hannah; John R.
Bell and his wife, Cynthia Mary; Robert P. Bell and his wife,
Margaret; Addison Plummer and his wife, Nancy; Sarah Jane Bell and
Campbell Bell (Pulaski County Deed Books 1, pp. 228, 235, 260, 282:

ROBERT
BELL, SR., REVOLUTIONARY WAR PENSION APPLICATION<?xml:namespace
prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
State
of Virginia, Montgomery County Sct
On
the 5th day of August in the year 1833, personally appeared in open court,
before the Justices of the county of Montgomery now sitting, Robert
Bell Sr. a resident of the said county and state aged 74 years last
Christmas who being first duly sworn according to law doth on his oath make the
following declaration in order to obtain the benefit of the act of Congress
passed June 7th 1832. That he entered the
service of the United States under the following named officers and served as
herein stated. That he has been a
resident of this county since he was three years old.
He was drafted his first tour (the year or month he cannot recollect) but
believes that it was about one year after the war was declared and served one
month under Aaron Scaggs who was the commanding officer and a Sergeant, we were
marched to Bluestone where we were stationed to guard Mares and McGuires
stations from the inroads of the Indians. Scaggs
was our officer, we had no regular encounter with the Indians, but had to drive

*1. There is long standing controversy regarding
Nancy
Hanks
Lincoln
's
heritage.. A recent mitochondrial DNA test of descendants of daughters
of Joseph Hanks, daughters of Lucy Hanks Sparrow, and two Shipley sisters show a
match between Hanks and Sparrow and no match to the Shipleys, making it very
likely Nancy Hanks is the illegitimate daughter of Lucy Hanks.[4]
Information from the Shipley
and
Berry
families, as well as some historical sites, claim that
Nancy
's
mother was Lucy or Lucey Shipley, sister to Rachel Shipley
Berry
.
Nancy
's
father may have been James Hanks https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nancy_Hanks_Lincoln_heritage
*2. Historians generally believe that Nancy Hanks was the
illegitimate daughter of Lucy Hanks, born into the Joseph
Hanks family and married
into the Sparrow family.[2][3] There
is no generally accepted theory about who
Nancy
's father
may have been.
*3
based on 1 and 2 above, it is concluded Nancy Hanks is indeed a direct descent
of Joseph Hanks through his Son James or his daughter Lucy, regardless, the
mitochondria DNA tests confirms Joesph is her grandfather.

children were born:

Vol. IV., pp. 646-654.
Ref: "Some Prominent Virginia Families," Vol
II-IV, Chapter X., pp. 224-231.
Ref: Harleian, 1552, folios 241 and 246, "Visitation
of Norfolk, 1613.", Harleian Society, Vol. 32, page 219.
The following is taken from "Some Prominent
Virginia Families," Vol II-IV, Chapter X., pp. 224:
"Three miles from Manchester, in co. Lancashire,
England, is the town of Pendleton, known as a portion of Salfordborough.
Over the door of one of the inns swings the arms of the Pendleton family,
exactly like those brought to the America by the emigrant, Philip Pendleton.
Some little distance off is the manor house, occupied still by a family of
Pendletons, and around the old church are the tombs of the departed
Pendletons. Here we pause, feeling ourselves aliens in our father's house.
Under that roof truss are the records that would carry us back along the
line of English history until we found the ancestor whose bravery in the
Crusades, won him the right to place upon his shield the silver pilgrim's
shells, which form a distinctive feature of the coat-of-arms. The family
evidently belonged to English gentry, a purer and prouder distinction
oftentimes than many of the titles which have changed hands and family names
many times as they come down the avenue of ages."
From "Virginia Families," we find the
following:
"The name of Pendleton seems to have been
originally Pen-Hulton, meaning "top of the hill;" then Pen-Elton and finally
Pendleton. The anme id from two Gaelic words, pendle and dun, meaning summit
(or top) and hill, respectively. In Lancashire the name appears as early as
1246 when Siward de Penelton, deceased, was mentioned. The same year in the
Assize Rolls of Lancashire, mention was made of Thomas de Parva Pendleton,
who was surety for Adam. Rochard and Roger de Penelton, sons of Matilda de
Penelton, who was probably the widow of Siweard de Penelton. In 1332 Adam de
Penelton paid taxes there. The town of Pendleton was a portion of
Salfordborough. Judge Edmund Pendleton of Virginia, in his Family Chronology
of 1792 stated that "About the year 1674 Nathaniel Pendleton, a Minister,
and Philip Pendleton, a school master, sons of Henry Pendleton of the City
of Norwich, co. Norfolk, in England, came thence to Virginia in
America......In 1469 Thomas Pendleton was living in Lancashire, in which
county he held lands; at the same time were two brothers, William and Robert
Pendleton, who were probably his sons. Another member of the family was the
Rev. Henry Pendleton (1521-1557), who may have been a brother of George
Pendleton, Sr., who lived in the town of Pendleton during the reign of King
Henry VII. (1485-1509). Thomas Pendleton, who died in 1534, was a nephew of
the Rev. Henry Pendleton; he had five sons: George, Edward, etc......George
Pendleton, Esq., Sr., of the town of Pendleton, was living in the reign of
King Henry VIII. (1509-1547)."
The first name upon the Virginia record is that of
George Pendleton, Esquire, of the town of Pendleton, Lancashire, England.
- 1.
George Pendleton, Sr, Esq.,
married about 1557. He had a son, George Pendleton, Jr.
- 2.
George Pendleton, Jr, born about
1558, died in 1603, buried at St. Stephen's, Norwich, on October 27, 1603,
the family having moved to Norfolk. He was admitted to the Freedom of
Norwich as a Scrivener's apprentice on September 21, 1578. He married at
St. Peters Mancroft, Norwich, co. Norfolk, England, on July 29, 1579,
Elizabeth Pettingale, born about
1562, in Swardiston, co. Norfolk, England, died January 27, 1625, in
Norwich, co. Norfolk, buried at St. Stephen's, Norwich, on January 27,
1625, daughter of John Pettingale, a
Gentleman, of Swardiston (Norwich), co. Norfolk.
They had the following children:
- 1. George Pendleton, died young.
- 2.
Henry Pendleton, Sr. See below.
- 3. Francis Pendleton, buried at St. Stephen's,
in Norwich, October 8, 1618, married, in 1610, Anne _________. They had
six children, all baptized at St. Stephens's: Elizabeth, Anne, Susan,
Mary, Elizabeth, and Enoch.
- 4. Anne Pendleton.
- 5. George Pendleton, buried at St. Simon and
St. Jude's, June 1, 1621, married February 13, 1614, Elizabeth Osborne.
- 3.
Henry Pendleton, Sr, born in
1583, Norwich, co. Norfolk, died in 1635, buried July 15, 1635, in St.
Stevens, Norwich, co. Norfolk, England, married in St. Simon & St. Jude's,
on September 30, 1605,
Susan Camden, born about 1584,
daughter of Humphrey Camden, born in 1562, married
September 13, 1581 to Cecily Pettus, born in 1560, in Norwich, co.
Norfolk. Susan was the granddaughter of Sir Thomas Pettus, Mayor of
Norwich in 1591, who married Christian Dethick, daughter of Simon Dethick,
Esq. of North Elmham, Norfolk. Sir Thomas Pettus was a son of John Pettus,
Esq., whose father was Thomas Pettus, an opulent citizen of Norwich, who
was buried in St. Edmund's, Lombard Street, London. See this lineage under
the Pettus Line. Henry had the Freedom of
Norwich as a Sciptor on September 6, 1605. They had the following thirteen
children:
- 1. George Pendleton, baptized at St.
Stephen's, April 1, 1607, buried there June 2, 1607.

Stephen's, July 3, 1608, married, February 19, 1625, Thomas Fitton.

- 4. Susan Pendleton, baptized at St. Stephen's,
July 27, 1609, buried there January 9, 1637. The coincidence of the
birth and death date of John and Susan seem to suggest an error.

Norwich, co. Norfolk, England, baptized at St. Stephen's, September
19, 1613, buried there September 26, 1613.

admitted sizar Corpus Christi College, Cambridge, as a son of "Henry

England by the Bishop of Norwich; he became Curate of Badwell Ask in
Suffolk and in 1674 came to Virginia with his younger brother, Philip.
He died very soon, leaving no children.

Phillip Pendleton, born in 1654.

- 5.
Philip Pendleton, born March
26, 1654, in Norwich, co. Norfolk, England, baptized April 2, 1654, in
St. Peter's Mancroft, Norwich, in died November 9, 1721, in King and
Queen County, Virginia, the same year that his son Henry died, and the
same year that his grandson, Edmund Pendleton, was born. At the age of
20, in 1674, with his brother, the Rev. Nathaniel Pendleton, he migrated
to Virginia, where he was apprenticed to Edmund Craske, Clerk of
Rappahannock County, and in 1678 he was Deputy Clerk of that county. He
later lived in Essex County, and about the beginning of the 18th century
he moved to King and Queen County. In 1704 his name appears on the Rent
Roll of King and Queen County, as owning 300 acres. In the same year his
son, Henry Pendleton, was taxed for 700 acres. His emigration to
Virginia in 1674 from England, was influenced, according to one record,
by a cousin, Thomas Pettus, son of either John or Thomas Pettus,
brothers. This Thomas Pettus was one of the early councilors of the
Virginia Colony. About 1682 Philip returned to England, at the terminal
illness and death of his father, and tradition says he was married, and
his wife died. There may be no foundation for this. In 1682 he returned
to the colony and married
Isabella Hurt, or Hart.
Her parentage is unknown.
Philip Pendleton was a schoolmaster. He and his wife are said to have
lived in New Kent County, but the parish records of that county, which
are very early and very full, do not contain the names of any Pendletons.
It is more probable that they lived in King and Queen County, Virginia.
He signed a deed in Essex County in 1677, and his son, Henry, signed one
there in 1719, and is designated as being from King and Queen County,
VA. He was probably a man of quiet tastes and not progressive enough to
build up a large estate, as many of his contemporaries did. They had the
following children:
- 1. Henry Pendleton, eldest son, born in
1683, in Rappahannock, Virginia, died in 1721, in King and Queen
County, VA., the same year his youngest son, Edmund, was born. He
married in 1701, Mary Taylor, daughter of James Taylor, of Carlisle,
England, who died April 30, 1698, and his second wife (whom he married
August 10, 1682), Mary Gregory, daughter of John and Elizabeth
(Bishop?) Gregory of Farnham and Sittingbourne Parishes, Rappahannock
County, of which he was a Vestryman in 1665. Henry was eighteen and
Mary thirteen years of age at the time of their marriage. On February
20, 1663, Henry had a grant of 600 acres in Rappahannock County. He
was referred to as Captain on May 24, 1676. He died late in the year
of 1676. His wife, Mary Taylor, after his death in 1721, married in
1723, (2) Edward Watkins. Almost all the Pendletons of Virginia trace
their descent from Henry Pendleton and Mary Taylor. Henry and Mary
(Taylor) Pendleton of St. Stephen's Parish, King and Queen County, had
seven children as follows:
- 1. James Pendleton, born in 1702, died in
1761 or 1763, married Mrs. Mary Lyall, of Lancaster County,
Virginia. They had four children as follows:
- 1. James Pendleton, born in 1735 and
died in 1793; he was a Member of the House of Burgesses from
Culpepper County, Justice of that county in 1762-3-4, and
High Sheriff in 1762. He was one of the Culpepper Minute
Men and later a Colonel of the Culpepper Militia in the
Revolutionary War. On May 21, 1763, he succeeded his
brother, Henry Pendleton, as Surveyor of the Roads. From
1782 to 1788 he was a member of the House of Delegates.
In 1788 he was Sheriff of Culpepper County. In 1763 he
married Catherine Bowie (1747-1795),
daughter of John and Judith (Catlett) Bowie. They had the
following children:
- 1. John Pendleton (1766-1807), married

In 1707 according to Crozier, John Colyer/Collier was a Captain in the
Infantry of King and Queen County. IN 1711 Queen Ann granted him land in
King and Queen County "for diverse good causes and
considerations". The Colyers were of noble descent and trace their
ancestry even to the Crusades. All of the Virginia Colyers were Whigs
during the Revolution. Saunders refer to the fact that during the war,
"Sir George Collier, Read Admiral of the British Nacy, was shelling
the coast of Rhode Island while his American Cousins , the Colyers of
Virginia, were shedding their blood in defense of the Colonies".

John Collier, served at Valley Forge with Washington , Knew Thomas

John Collier
Sex: M
Birth: 17 JAN 1740 in Belle Haven, Culpepper Co, Va
Death: 31 MAR 1836 in Rockcastle Co, Kentucky
Burial: McClary Cemetery, Rockcastle County, Kentucky five miles north west of
Mr. Vernon, Rockcastle Co, Ky. It is a large deserted spot and the stone marking
their graves has not been located. Note:
On 4-3-1780, 50
acres were conveyed to John Colyer for services rendered by him during the
French/Indian war between Great Britian and France, according to the
proclamation of 1763, by the King of Great Britain. This warrant was signed by
S. Carr. 7-13-1780 Henry Co, Va Fishing Fork District of Leatherwood Creek was
the property John picked to use with his Land Grant.
On 11-3-1793, Collier was wounded at St. Clair's Defeat near Ft. Jefferson, Ohio
He served in the Battle of Monmouth and was at Valley Forge in December of 1777
A Land Grant in Virginia shows a grant of 217 acres to John Colyer by Thomas
Jefferson. He apparently did not pre-empt the acreage, but sold the warrant to
secure money for his immediate needs.
John enlisted in the Revolutionary War in the Viginia Continental Line. He
Fought at Valley Forge, and Braddock's Defeat. He was a Private in the Virginia
7th Regiment. During the Revolutionary War, John Colyer, Sr. fought in
Captain Thomas Hill's Co 7th Virginia Regiment under the command of Col.
McClenahan.
"He enlisted February 13, 1777 to serve for three years or until the end of
the War. His name is borne on the rolls to November 1779, which later contained
no further information relative to his service"' Signed by Brigadier
General Wahl, Acting Adj. General.
The part of the Revolutionary War about which John Collier spoke most frequently
to his children and grandchildren was the terrible winter at Vally Forge, where
he was a private in the 7th Virginia Regiment (Capt. Thomas Hill). The following
is quoted along the line of this matter from "Valley Forge" (1910) by
Rev. James W. Riddle of Philadelphia:
"The troops arrived at Valley Forge, twenty-one miles from Philadelphia on
December 9, 1777 with nothing but tents to withstand the rigors of a very severe
winter. The soldiers were at once put to work to build log huts, 14X16 feet.
Each hut accommodated twelve privates. Officers were not so crowded. The huts
were laid out in streets. Straw supported by poles was used for roofs. Straw
also was used for bedding for the soldier's bunks. At first 11,890 men were
encamped at Valley Forge. Camp fever broke out. Small-pox became epidemic.
Sickness and death and desertion reduced the number to 5,012. June 18, 1772 the
men heard the British were evacuating Philadelphia. General George Washington
broke camp and pushed toward Philadelphia, arriving there as the last of the
British were crossing the Delaware. June 28, 1778 Washington and his men
attacked Clinton at Monmouth in New Jersey. "
Whenever John Collier noticed that his children or grandchildren showed the
least indication of wastefulness, he at once would reprimand them, telling them
of the suffering at Valley Forge, how he had seen soldiers fight for a kernel of
corn; how he and others lacked shoes and socks to keep their feet warm, and as
they walked in the snow, would leave the marks of blood from their tender,
frost-bitten feet; how some of the soldiers had so little clothing that, when
they stepped out of their huts, they had to throw their bedding around them. He
well remembered Baron Von Steuben. whose striking personality made an indelible
impression upon all the Privates. Von Steuben spoke English only brokenly, but
he spoke it or some other language very forcibly. No one could misunderstand his
meaning, for his adjectives were very strong and pointed. He saw the men hungry,
ill-clothed clothes and suffering every privation, yet most of them were
unwilling to leave and give up the cause of independence so dear to them. Nearby
in Philadelphia, where the British and their American Tory friends were
stationed, there was plenty of food, plenty of clothing, there was dancing and
music and happy times for all, while in this cold and isolated spot a few men
were trying to achieve independence for a forlorn cause. While Von Steuben
regarded them with admiration and said no cause could fail with such men as
that, he yet saw the imperative need of better drilled soldiers and better guns,
and he did his part to that end; so well indeed did he aid that Congress
recognized his efforts and gave him vast land grants in his old age.
Although the services of John Collier in the war, as shown on the old
Revolutionary rolls, appears to be limited to two years and nine months,
unquestionably it covered a period much longer that that, extending indeed to
the very close of the struggle. Several times he was wounded. Some of the
bullets he carried in his body to the grave. Other bullets were placed in the
coffin when he was buried. He was present at the Battle of the Brandywine and
also at Monmouth New Jersey besides other various battles, names of which are
not known. One of the stories he told his grandchildren was that, when two
warring armies were lying on opposite sides of a river (presumably the Delaware)
he and some other soldiers floated down the river on driftwood in such a manner
as to draw near the opposite shore, where they took possession of a boatload or
provisions belonging to the enemy. Using great caution they managed to work the
boat over to the American side where their comrades were in great need of
supplies. Once in battle he was struck by a bullet that he at first thought had
finished him. When he recovered from the shock and hunted out the damage, he
found that the bullet had struck squarely on the front of the large silver coin
that he wore as a top button on the fly of his trousers. There was no damage
beyond the heavy blow. He told his children that he was present at the
dissolution of the army. He recalled how the veterans showed very deep emotion.
Their tears run freely down over unshaved faces to lodge on ragged, dirty
shirts.
After his discharge from the army at the close of the Revolutionary War, John
attempted to find his wife and children. He joined a group of discharged
soldiers who made their way over the Alleghenies and then down the Ohio River by
boat to Kentucky. There he fell ill and for some time he was in a serious
condition at Bryant's Station (near the present site of Lexington) After his
recovery he started back along the Boone Trail, to join his family in Powell's
Valley. Meanwhile, some travelers from Kentucky had returned to Virginia and en
route had stopped to tell Grizelda that her husband was nigh unto death at
Bryant's Station. Hastily, she put her children out among neighbors and joined a
group of armed emigrants going to Kentucky by a different road. When she finally
reached Bryant's Station, it as only to be told that he husband had recovered
and started for Powell's Valley. She was obliged to remain at Bryant's station
nearly three months before she found an opportunity to join an armed party going
back over the dangerous road to her starting point. The husband and wife were
finally reunited. For some years after the War they lived in Virginia, where
their son Charles was born in 1786. Shortly after this they moved to Kentucky
and settled in what is now Rockcastle County. From there he went north in 1791
as a volunteer in Indian Warfare.
It was a proof of the patriotism of John Collier that, when almost fifty years
of age, he left his Kentucky home to again aid his country as a soldier. In 1791
he served as a sergeant in Capt. Jacob Tipton's Company. Col. William Darke's
First Regiment of U.S. Levies, in General St. Clair's army and took part in the
battle of St. Clair's Defeat. Many more details of the battle and John's
"after the war" life are told in the Calloway publication.
By way of explanation, Mrs. A.E. Hart, compiler of "The Calloway Family of
Virginia" state: "My mother stated that her grandmother Grizelda
Taylor Colyer said that she was married at Belle Haven in the Episcopal
Church" Many details of the wedding day are in the article also.
John Collier was a large man about 180 pounds. He had a good education and was a
Whig. He was a Sergeant in the Revolutionary War in Capt. Jacob Lipton's company
of the Virginia Line. As tradition has it that he was at St. Clair's defeat and
was wounded. He crawled off into the wilderness and saved his own life by
killing a rattlesnake and eating it and dressing his wounds with whisky from a
canteen that was in the family until destroyed by a fire in 1888. It is also
related that he made it a point to never give anything away that he did not wish
himself....Marietta D. Beardlsey

In 1707 according to Crozier, John Colyer/Collier was a Captain in the
Infantry of King and Queen County. IN 1711 Queen Ann granted him land in
King and Queen County "for diverse good causes and
considerations". The Colyers were of noble descent and trace their
ancestry even to the Crusades. All of the Virginia Colyers were Whigs during
the Revolution. Saunders refer to the fact that during the war, "Sir
George Collier, Read Admiral of the British Nacy, was shelling the coast of
Rhode Island while his American Cousins , the Colyers of Virginia, were
shedding their blood in defense of the Colonies". Research: Crozier, WM

PAUL
TO BOUSMAN
26
December 1792 - John Paul of Rickbridge Co. for one part and Lawrence Bousman
of said county for the other part. For
70Ł paid by Bousman for 137 acres, 3 rods and 2 poles, adj. Jacob East, Christopher
Vineyard, William Campbell,
Gerehearts, and Secats.
George
Vineyard was named in
the 1787 Rockbridge County Tax list as a tithe chargeable to Christopher
Vineyard. There is no relationship
stated. George
Vineyard married Mary Campbell
in 1890. There may be a relationship
between Mary and William Campbell. There
are many reference to a William Campbell in Early
Adventures on the Western Waters, but there is nothing to conclude that
they are the same William Campbell.
