| 2004 | Thomas and his brother Alexander were part of the forces of Robert Bruce under the command of Sir Reginald Crawfurd and Malcolm McQuillan, an Irish chieftain, who landed at Loch Ryan on 9 Feb 1307. Their mission was to drive inland and threaten the English lines of communication between Carlisle and Ayr. They were ambused by the MacDowalls of Galloway (who were allied with King Edward I) as they beached their boats upon the shore. Some were killed in the nearby woods, some on the shore, and many were drowned. All the rest, except for two galleys that were still at sea and thus escaped, were captured. Thomas and Alexander Bruce and Sir Reginald Crawford were taken alive to Carlisle, England, and by the order of King Edward, hanged and beheaded. Their heads were placed on spikes above the gates of the town. (Source: Billy Polk) | Of Bruce, Thomas (I7391)

| 2009 | Thomas Gough: There is a 1796 VA land grant record given to Thomas Gaugh, 200 ac Meadow Creek, south of Green River. Records indicate that he and his wife Fanny sold this land before late 1804. Thomas is included in the 1800 KY Tax list along with his father, and siblings William Gough Jr, Jonathan Gough. From "Logan Co., KY Deed Abstracts" Deed Book A, page 302 - Indenture dated 13 Dec 1804 between Thomas Gough and Thomas Lawrence, $100 paid, 50 acres on Meadow Branch of Big Muddy Creek. Signed also by Fanny Gough....witness: Jonathan Gough, David Howard, Reuben Dougherty. Also on page 299 is an indenture dated 15 Dec 1804 - Thomas Gough and Fanny Gough, one part, and David Howard, other part, $100 paid, tract on Meadow Branch, waters of Big Muddy Creek, being 50 acres...witness: Jonathan Gough, Thos Lawrence, Reuben Dougherty. Inventory records dated 1802, of James Howard, show appraisers Jesse & Wm Gough. An equity case settlement, Logan Co., 1818, of the estate of Lindsey (also Linza) Howard, administrator David Howard. Ann Gough Howard, age 90, and Susan Gough Montgomery, age 80, of Nelson Co. KY, 1833, sisters of Revolutionary War veteran Ignatius Gough. (Ignatious Gough, age 79, 1832 VA Rev War pension S.1205, "enlisted in St Marys Co. MD - in Virginia line")....could Fanny Unknown Gough be a Howard??? Does Ignatius Gough figure in with these other Logan County Gough families from William Gough, Sr.???? E-mail sent July 2001 from Steve Lawrence, who believes Thomas GOUGH, brother of Jonathan, also moved to Alabama: ".. Thomas sold his land in Butler Co. in four parcels in 1804. There is an 1805 land grant on the Sinking Fork Creek in Christian Co. KY to a Thomas Goff, which could be him (especially since there were only two Thos. Goff/Goughs in KY on the 1800 tax lists, and the other stayed put in Clark Co. for many years), but I did not find him on the 1810 Christian Co. Census. This parcel could have been in an adjacent county which formed from Christian, so that needs to be investigated as well. A Thomas Goff/Gough first appears in Washington Co. AL about 10 years later, on an 1816 tax list. Subsequently, there are entries indicating a Thos., Sr., and Thos., Jr. Also, a Thomas Gough marries A.A Nelson on 25 Sep 1826 in Washington Co. - probably Thos., Jr., since he is listed with three children 1-5 in the 1830 census. Thos. Jr. buys land in what became Choctaw Co. in 1837, about the same time as Jonathon B. Gough, though both appear on the Washington Co. 1840 Census (Choctaw Co. was not formed until Dec 1848.). On the 1850 census, both are in Choctaw Co., AL. Meanwhile, Thos., Sr. evidently dies between the 1830 and 1840 Census. On the former, he is listed as being between 60 and 70 years old (b. 1760-70), about right to fit in with what we know about William Gough, Sr.'s son Thomas. Also, this census has a male 30-40, and a female 40-50 with several children. This implies another son with his family (or a second wife for Thomas, Sr.). I suspect these children are the source of some of the younger Goughs on the 1850 Choctaw Co. Census. Anyway, this whole batch is not on the Washington Co. 1840 Census. Thos. Gough, Jr. appears on both the 1830 and 1840 Washington Co. Census with a growing family, and then on the 1850 and 1860 Choctaw Co. Census. However, it is by no means certain that this Thos., Sr. was brother to Jonathon, Sr. - he could just as easily be a cousin. However, all the data fits, and I believe he will ultimately prove to be William Gough, Sr.'s son." (Source: Janice Mauldin Castleman -- 1998) | Gough, Thomas (I6718)

| 2025 | TN State Library and Archives, History and Genealogy > Military Records Southern Claims Commission: Love, Ebzan County of Hamblen Claim Allowed (Allowed means that the claim was accepted and paid) Ebzan is found on a list of over 22,000 Southerners who filed a claim between 1871 and 1873 with the Southern Claims Commission, claiming their property had been taken by U.S. military personnel for use in the Civil War. His claim was allowed. The county listed was Hamblen. Such claims were allowed if the claimant could prove through the testimony of others that he had lost property, and was loyal to the Union during the Civil War. Although Tennessee, North Carolina and Alabama, the states in which Ebzan lived, were all confederate states, Eb apparently remained loyal to the Union (although some have said that many southerners did whatever they had to to receive compensation and did not consider it “lying” to “lie” to a Yankee...) Ebzan probably was loyal to the Union in spite of his sourthern roots--records show that his brother, Luther M. Love, fought on the side of the Union during the Civil War.

Thames 75 (Note: In 1880 Rutha Banks Cobb Thames was living with son, James W. and family.) Rutha B. Thames is the mother of James W. Thames and grandmother of your Charles Thames, age 15 in 1880. Rutha Banks Cobb married John Thames in December 1820 and they had a large family. John Thames was born about 1799 in Cumberland County, NC and died Jan 1865 in Shelby County, AL. Circumstantial evidence and comparison of many records indicate John is the son of Thomas Thames (b. c1765 NC) and his first wife whose name is unknown at this time. Thomas Thames remarried in 1805 to Nancy Tolar & by 1813 records prove they are living in Twiggs County, GA.

In 1760 Tom is stated as being in Anson County, North Carolina, on 300 acres on the Catawba River and Fishing Creek. In 1760 and 1765 there are two deeds both involving a Henry Gillespie.

| 2042 | VA Genealogies by Rev. Horace Edwin Hayden, page 47, in the notes at the bottom is stated: "Mrs. Washington's grandfather, Col. William Ball was the first of the family who came to VA., and settled near the mouth of the Corotomon River. It appears from a memorandum of Joseph Ball Esq., that he married in London, the 2nd day of July, 1638, a Miss Hannah Atherall, by whom he had Richard who it is supposed died an infant, as he is not mentioned in his father's Will; William born 2nd June 1641; Joseph born the 25th of May, 1649; and Hannah born about the middle of March, 1650; but whether they were born in England or Virginia, I cannot learn. William the 2nd son of the 1st of that name married a Miss Williamson, an Englishwoman, by whom he had William, Richard, James, Joseph, George, David, Margaret, Stretchley and Samuel. Joseph the 3rd son of the 1st William, married Miss Rogers by whom he had Joseph, born the 11th of March 1684; Elizabeth who married the Rev'd Mr. Carnegie; Hannah who married Mr. Travers; Anne who married Col. Edwin Conway; & Easter (sic) who married Mr. Raleigh Chinn; he afterwards married Mrs. Washington's mother, by whom he had her, and soon afterward died. His Will is dated the 5th of June 1711."

| 2043 | Very little is known about Aethelbert, who took his rightful place in the line of succession to the throne of Wessex at aroun 30 years of age. Like all other rulers of his day, he had to contend with Viking raids on his territories, and even had to battle them in his capital city of Winchester. Apparently, his military leaderlship was adequate, since, on this occasion, the vikings were cut off on their retreat to the coast and were slaughtered, according to a contemporary source, in a "bloody battle". He was King of England 860 - 866. | Of Wessex, AEthelbert (I857)

The diary ends abruptly right here. It is a pity he did not keep up his entries until the end of the journey, which for him, I suppose was what is now, and probaly then Lindale, Texas. He does not give the month or the year - only the days of the week but this wagon train left Perry County, Alabama in 1869, and presumably in the fall of the year for he does not mention anything that would lead us to believe any of the rivers crossed were at flood stage, as would be the case in the spring, and then too, most of the group were farmers and doubtless were anxious to make a crop the following year.
