1901 Served about 610 AD. Of Gwynedd (Wales), Jacob ap Beli (I5477)
 
1902 Served about 850 AD. Of Gwynedd (Wales), Beli ap Rhun (I5476)
 
1903 Served in the Revolution, enlisting in NC troops. He was Capt. of a
Company according to NC Revolutinary War Records. He served first
with the Company of Capt. John Ingals, then the regiment of Col. John
Patton, in which he enlisted 3 May 1770. He was with Gen. Washington
at Valley Forge. He and his wife Amanda Allen Knox had seven
children.

It is thought that they lived some time in Pa before coming to NC. The
descendants say that their ancestor, William Knox, became heir to a
tract of land that was granted to this father in the old country, and
that they located it in Rowan Co., NC, and settled upon it. During the
Irish Rebellion quite a few of the Knoxes came from Scotland to
Ireland, and for service rendered the English government, some of them
obtained a land warrant for six hundred acres of land. If William was
the eldest son of the family, as it is supposed, and the old English
law in regardng to settling estates prevailed in North Carolina at
that time, the oldest son wojld be heir to the whole of the real
estate. And this may account for the absence of any mention of real
estate in Jean Knox's Will. 
Knox, William Sr. (I3546)

Herron, Lois Catherine (I650)
 
1908 She lived in Morristown, Tennessee , she died at the age of 87 years, 7 months, 14 days. A part of her obituary reads "A great many years ago she professed religion and joined the Methodist Church, and remained in connection with that church till her death. She was stricken down a year ago with paralysis, which slowly but surely did its work." Massengill, Alcey (I9181)
 
1909 She was from early life a member of the Old School Baptist Church. Her father, Henry White, was a veteran of the Revolution. Henry White's parents were among the earliest pioneers of Kentucky. When Henry was about sixteen years old, the family were one day attacked by the Indians, their dwelling burned and the whole family, Henry alone excepted, massacred. He was in the field at work some distance from the house, and hence was enabled to make good his escape. One of the maternal grand-uncles of our subject, Joseph Lockston, familiarly known as "Master Jo" was also a veteran of the Revolution. During that struggle his command was for a time stationed on the Kentucky frontier, where he was one day attacked by two stalwart Indians, both of whom he succeeded in killing. (Source: Kentucky: A History of the State, Battle, Perrin, & Kniffin, 2nd ed., 1885, Butler Co.)

She was from early life a member of the Old School Baptist Church. His parents were John and Elizabeth Prevatte (Beesley)

1926 Some of the Belcher families living in Massachusetts moved into
Maryland, Connectcut and some moved on to Virginia during the early
1700's.
Many of the men patented land in the southwest end of Chesterfield
Co., VA, which was known as Henrico Co. until 1749. They settled in
the area known as Skinquarter and Genito. Some of the settlers were
John Belcher and his cousin, Richard Belcher, James Gates, John Goode,
John Skelton and James Bailey. The earliest known record of Richard
and John Belcher is in Henrico Co., VA in John Nash's Sheriff's Bond
along with James Bailey. James Bailey's son, Richard Bailey, married
Elizabeth Belcher. In 1759 James Bailey bought 77 acres of land on
the south side of Kinquarter. This land was originally part of a
patent of 375 granted to Richard Belcher in 1754 and was the first
owned by the Bailey family. The listing states "paid debt of son
1736, paid 75 lbsl of tobacco... "to Yr. order to pay Belchar". 
Belcher, John Sr. (I4630)
 
1927 Some records have Millie's place of death as White Mount, Grayson Co.
Tex. Millie had thirteen children, two who died in infancy. Millie
Ann Woolbright Hollingsworth was a sister of Sarah Catherine
Woolbright, Mary's first born. (Source: Communication from Joseph
William (Jodie) Woolbright, Dallas, Texas to Maurine Sealy, Carson,
California, dated 11 Oct 1982, quoting Helen L. Ary, Newton, N. C.)

Helen's husband was a great grandson of Sarah's. Jodie was grandson
of William and Edy Miller Woolbright and great-grandson of Jesse &
Polly Woolbright. This is further confirmed by a letter from
Walterine H. Sharp of Farmersville, Texas, 20 Feb 1982, to Mrs.
Sealy, a descendant of Millie Ann's husband, and also source of Sarah
Catherine Woolbright Burkett's husband's name.

1928 Sometime between November 1, 1856 (when Abner signed his last will and testament), and April 6, 1857 (when the will was probated), Abner Alexander died at age 78. Abner's wife Margaret was 67 years old at the time of her husband's death, and probably stayed in the area with her son James Alexander. In 1931, Abner Alexander's great grand-daughter (Mrs. Bessie Alexander Rasmussen of Houston, Texas) hired Edythe Whitley, genealogist, to trace her ancestry back to Revolutionary War patriot Ezekial Alexander so that she could join the Daughters of the American Revolution. In the material Mrs. Whitley turned over to the DAR Library, she describes the location of Abner Alexander's grave 75 years after Abner's death: "Mr. Northout's mother lives on part of the Abner Alexander land in the first district of Cannon County, near Porterfield in the Lock's Creek section, and is a descendant of this family through Abner's son. Mrs. Northout is a woman of years as her son told me he was 47 years old. He says he knows that Abner is buried in the Alexander graveyard on his mother's farm but that there is not a stone at his grave".

1929 Somewhere between England and America, Richard changed his name to
Melton.

Richard Milton came to Virginia in 1620 on the ship "Supply". The
Supply was the companion ship to the Mayflower. It left England three
weeks later than the Mayflower and unlike the Mayflower, the Supply
found it's way to Virginia. Richard must have been considered a
responsible man because he was put in charge of Councillor Prontus'
cattle while in shipment on the Supply.

Richard Milton purchased 75 acres of land from Thomas Staff on 29 Nov
1635. He purchased 75 acres from Thomas Staff on 26 May 1637. 3 Oct
1638 he received 400 acres from transfer by eight others. 23 Aug 1643
Thomas Wheeler received by assignment from Richard Milton and Robert
Tisdale 900 acres of land. 
Milton, I Richard (I477)
 
1930 Son of Alpin MacEochaid, he succeeded his brother Kenneth MacAlpin in
859. He reigned for four years. Little is known of him, other than he
successfully crushed the Picts who, with the help of the Saxons of
England, attempted to regain their lost throne. He died of natural
causes near Scone.

1932 Source of children's name and birthdates information on William Smoot
II: The Clan Montgomery Society International Genealogy Database.

On December 2, 1672, he witnessed the sale of a cow sold by Edward
Wrilly to Mary Wright. The fact that he witnessed a deed in 1672 would
indicate that he had at least attained his eighteenth birthday,
consequently his birth occurred prior to the year 1654.

On January 16, 1678, he was present at the transfer of 307 acres of
land from William Fauntleroy to John Inglow. On July 4, 1681, he
appointed Alexander Newman his attorney to acknowledge the purchase of
land from William Fauntleroy.

On March 18, 1683/4, William Smoot and Jane his wife of "Parish of
Farnham, Rappahannock County" conveyed to Richard Ellet for 2,400
pounds of tobacco 100 acres of land lying in Moratico, where Thomas
Sampson was then domiciled. The deed was witnessed by Thomas Sampson
and Richard R. Draper. About this time he settled in Durham Parish of
Richmond County, where the births of his three daughters are recorded.

1789. December 22: North Carolina’s western lands are ceded to the
United States, forming what will become the state of Tennessee.

Prepared by Tom Kanon, Tennessee State Library and Archives
The War of 1812 was a defining period in the early history of Tennessee. For the first time, Tennessee was thrust into the national spotlight through its political prowess and military victories. When war was declared on Great Britain in June 1812, it was a Tennessean,
Congressman Felix Grundy, who was given the lion’s share of credit (or blame) for steering Congress toward a declaration of war against one of the mightiest military powers of the day. Grundy, a Nashville lawyer, along with a group of Democratic-Republicans known as the War Hawks, provided the rhetoric necessary to lead the nation into a conflict that many considered unpopular. Tennessee’s accomplishments on the battlefield during the Creek War (1813-1814) gave the country something to cheer about in a period of otherwise dismal campaigns against the British. And, of course, Andrew Jackson’s stunning victory at New Orleans showed the world that the United States was coming of age and could take its place among the nations of the world.
At the onset of the war, the theater of operations was concentrated on the Canadian American border. Tennessee, eager to get into the fray, offered its services to the government; but distance prevented the state from making any direct contribution. However, when President James Madison called on Tennessee to help defend the "Lower Country,"
Tennesseans volunteered en masse, earning the nickname "The Volunteer State." Tennessee Governor Willie Blount was asked to send 1,500 troops to the defense of New Orleans and/or Mobile. An expedition, under the command of Major General Andrew Jackson, was outfitted in December 1812.
Natchez Expedition:
(December 1812 - April 1813) The troops were mustered in at Nashville on 10 December 1812 and departed in early January 1813. The expedition consisted of two volunteer regiments, under Colonels Thomas Benton and William Hall, and one regiment of volunteer mounted gunmen under Colonel John Coffee. Coffee’s men rendezvoused at Columbia, Tennessee and marched overland into the Mississippi Territory (now the present-day states of Alabama and Mississippi). The rest of the expedition comprised a flotilla that went down the Cumberland, Ohio, and Mississippi Rivers and camped at their final destination near Natchez in mid-February 1813. After lingering there for several weeks, Jackson received orders from the Secretary of War that his services were no longer required and that he was to dismiss his troops. An angry and frustrated Jackson decided to march the army home at his own expense and, by his determined stance, acquired the sobriquet "Old Hickory" along the way. Many of the men who were part of this expedition were called to join the first campaign of the Creek War in September 1813. A journal of the expedition to Natchez (from December 1812 to early March 1813) can be found in John Spenser Bassett’s The Correspondence of Andrew Jackson - Volume I (Washington D.C., 1926).
At the same time that West Tennesseans were marching to Natchez, the eastern section of the state made their own contribution with a similar campaign -- this one into Florida.
(Note: what was considered West Tennessee in 1812 is now the region of the state called Middle Tennessee. What we now call West Tennessee was Indian land.)

1947 St. Clare in Pont d'Eveque in Normandy is generally thought to be the
birthplace of this great northern clan.

The family received a grant of the Barony of Roslin in Midlothian
during the twelfth century. Through marriage, the family obtained the
Earldom of Orkney, and in the next century received land in Caithness.
The earldom or kingdom of Orkney was later resigned by order of James
III.

The chief of Clan Sinclair at this time split the family lands, giving
the lands of Caithness to his elder son, and the lands at Roslin to
his younger son. It was around this point that the spelling "Sinclair"
came into general use, although the Earls of Roslin still prefer to
use the older form of "St. Clare".

The Earls of Caithness engaged in a long succession of feuds with
their neighbours and within the family. This resulted in the 4th Earl
imprisoning his son in Girnigoe Castle, where he starved to death.

Much of the Sinclair lands in Caithness had to be sold off to pay
debts. Within the family, rights to estates were disputed and
culminated in a battle between the Sinclairs and the Campbells on the
banks of Altimarlech, near Wick. It is said that, as a result of this
battle, "so many Sinclairs were killed that the Campbells were able to
cross the water without getting their feet wet".
