Granddaddy did not care for her at all. The girls never came with them. Don't know why. I often thought why did he marry such a person as her. She did notlike kids to much.

Notes on Samuel Thomas CarterVirginia, AlabamaMine ExplosionFebruary 20, 1905Alabama mine disaster.

Birmingham, Ala., Feb. 21. --- By an explosion in the Virginia mine, about eighteen miles southwest of Birmingham, at 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon, between110 and 135 union miners are entombed, and it is believed the entire number suffered an awful death.

Page 51: Ancestors of Anna Janet Tidwell

Ancestors of: Page 51 of 139Anna Janet Tidwell

Scores of vigorous rescuers are at work digging into the mine to relieve their friends and comrades in the mine.

The explosion is believed to have been caused by an accumulation of dust, although the mine has heretofore been noted for being entirely free from dust. It isalso believed that as the entire quota has probably been killed, the details of the cause of the disaster will never be known.

Of the miners who entered the mine yesterday, so far only 50 bodies have been recovered. It is believed of the remaining 110 men none is alive. Practicallyisolated from the outside world, the Associated Press reporter found it necessary to employ a courier to intersect its wires three miles distant. The corpses arefrightfully mangled and disfigured and identification is almost impossible. Many of them are so badly bruised and discolored that negroes cannot be told fromwhite men. All day long at the mouth of the mine the moaning and wailing of women and children whose unfortunate relatives were in the mines has been themost heartrending feature of the disaster. One hundred families and 360 children are left destitute and without means of support by the calamity. As the bodiesof the victims which in many cases have been gathered together a piece at a time, are brought to the surface, they are placed in rows on a rough, improvisedplatform.

The work of the diggers at the mines has been an inspiration to the directors and every one has done all in his power to facilitate the work of rescue. Theexcavation of debris has been handicapped from the start. The foul gases which had collected in the shaft made it necessary to use safety lamps and it wasfound that less than a score of safety lamps were available in the district. Union miners went to the scene from practically every mining camp within a radius of25 miles of Virginia City to aid in the work of rescue.

Of the fifty bodies recovered one was found which was barely alive. Scant hope is held out for his recovery. PRESIDENT FLYNN, of the Alabama UnitedWorkers, said to the Associated Press tonight:

"I shall be surprised if a single person escapes alive from that mine. Ventilation is very difficult and if the men were not killed by the explosion, they havecertainly been suffocated by the gases. The bodies so far reached were in the main slope and it will be several days before we can ket [sic] to the rooms whichbranch off from the main slope."

Horrible Sights.

One of the most gruesome sights witnessed today was a man's head being carried out of the mine in a dinner basket. It was found in this position and the fleshwas almost entirely burned away from the skull, arms and mangled trunks were brought out in succession. After nightfall the entrance to the mine wasconverted into a veritable chamber of horrors. The awfulness of this was intensified by the flickering of lamps as the feeble rays fell upon the mangled andbleeding fragments of human flesh, strewn about the entrance.

Many stout hearted men who had been assisting in the work of rescue were forced to give up the task and numerous persons have fainted upon seeing theghastly array of bodies.

Several women became hysterical, others fainted and still others had to be placed in the hands of attending surgeons, being completely prostrated by theterrible scenes. When bodies are identified a tag is placed on each and special ambulance wagons conveyed them to Bessemer.

Mine Boss REED is confident that more than a hundred men in the mines were white and believes all perished.

SEVENTY-FIVE BODIES TAKEN FROM THE VIRGINIA MINE

Birmingham, Ala., Feb 22.- At 8 o'clock this evening seventy-five blackened and disfigured bodies had been recovered from the Virginia mines, in which theawful explosion occurred on Monday afternoon, entombing what is now confidently believed to be more than 150 of the best miners in the Birmingham district.

Tomorrow will be a day of funerals at Virginia City, Bessemer, Pratt City and Ensley. The men have been taken to Bessemer as fast as identified. An extra

supply of coffins from neighboring cities arrived today.

The rescuers are still heroically at work in the slope and as the diggers advance the bodies further in the mine are found to be worse burned and mutilated thanthose nearer the exterior. No hope is now held out that any of the men can be alive. Three men were found yesterday whose hearts were still beating but theyexpired immediately on reaching the outside air.

The Birmingham district has come promptly forward in the matter of relieving the destitute families of the victims and mass meetings have been held inBirmingham, Bessemer, Ensley and Pratt City today for that purpose. Hundreds of dollars have been subscribed in the suburbs and the BirminghamCommercial club and has raised more than $3,000 for the sufferers.

Alabama District No 2, United Mine Workers of America today voted $5,000 to be distributed among the bereaved families.

WATER FLOODS MINE FILLED WITH BODIES

Force of the Explosion Bursts Pipes-Now Believed That Many Virginia City Miners Were Drowned in Chambers

TOTAL DEATH LIST ESTIMATED AT 116

Work of Rescuers Slow Because of Poisonous Gas and Water-Only Fifty Bodies Thus Far Brought to Surface

BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Feb. 22.-Two staff correspondents of the Birmingham News, who have just returned from the Virginia mines this morning, say forty-eightbodies have been taken out. A number of corpses, the rescuers reported, are still in sight, but could not be reached because of the water. The explosion brokethe water pipes and flooded a large portion of the mine. It is therefore possible not a few of the men were drowned, as several bodies have been seen floatingaround in the flooded rooms. Forty-four corpses have been taken to Bessemer, where a vacant storehouse has been secured and is being used as a morgue.Within that building bodies in every form of mutilation are stretched out on the floor for identification.

In very many instances it is impossible to identify the corpses, they are so badly blackened and mangled. Absolutely no hope is held out now of finding any onealive in the mine, especially in view of the discovery that many of the rooms have been flooded. There was a report several men taken alive, but this afterwardswas denied as true. It is now stated the muscles of three bodies were relaxed when they were brought out, but there was not life in the bodies.

CORONER PARIS is busy inquiring into the disaster, having already empaneled a jury.

Newspaper men who have made a close estimate on the number of men in the mine, say there were 116, and there is no doubt but every man perished. Fromnow on the work of recovering the bodies will be slow because of the presence of water in the mine.

This was my "Grandma Hanker" when I was a small child. I remember she dipped snuff. She wore her grey hair in a bun & when she took it down at night itwas REALLY long.Her house on Warrior River Rd in Hueytown was really old, & it was always cold in winter. When my brother John & I would spend the night our beds would beheated up with a flatiron & then piled up with pounds of blankets. If we had to go to the bathroom we had to go out on the back porch & then into the bathroom(it was attached, & did have a real flush toilet).

Tidwell, Rowan & C. - purchased from Elias Dunkin a tract of land located inTownship 20 Range 8 of Perry Co. Jan. 14, 1873. Recorded in Deed Book "Y"pages 136, 137, 141, 142.

>From Genforum: Tidwell message #1651: It seems Rowan's nickname was "Ryan"which is what Cinciana called him in her Confederate Widow's Pensionapplication in 1899. In 1860, they were in Blount Co. In 1870, they were inPerry Co., AL, and by 1880, only she was living in Perry Co. with her son.Rowan "Ryan" Tidwell must have died prior to 1880. In her father's estateSettlement papers in 1883, she is listed as residing in Jefferson Co., AL,but she filed her Pension application in Perry Co. in 1899. I haven'tlocated either of their graves, yet. any additional guidance would begreatly appreciated.

>From Genforum: Tidwell message #1653: In reviewing the Confederate WidowsPension Application of Rowan "Ryan" Tidwell, his wife Cinciana/Cinthia AnnTidwell stated that Ryan Tidwell died Nov. 11, 1873 near Jericho, Perry Co.,AL. I haven't located a tombstone yet, but will keep on looking so I canhave proof of his birth date. The same his wife Cinciana/Cinthia AnnTidwell.

According to the Confederate Widow's Pension Application for "Cynthia AnnTidwell", she stated her husband "Ryan Tidwell" died in Perry County,Alabama on November 11, 1873.

According to the Jefferson County, Alabama Pension Applications (#14196)"Cynthia A. Tidwell" died on April 13, 1906 in Jefferson County, Alabama.

I found her name in a newspaper list of Confederate Widows attending aMeeting in Birmingham prior to her death. She had siblings, children andgrandchildren living in Birmingham. It seems sometime between 1900 Censusand 1906, she moved to Birmingham and died there. It is possible the familybrought her to Birmingham in her 80's, maybe for medical reasons instead ofkeeping her in a very rural area. I'm checking cemeteries where some of herchildren and grandchildren are buried to see if she can be found.--------------------

Forty-Ninth AlabamaInfantry Regiment

This regiment was orgnized at Nashville, in January 1862, and attached to the Kentucky brigade of Gen. Breckinridge. It took part in the battleof Shiloh, whereit lost 113 killed and wounded. A few weeks later, the Forty-ninth was sent to Vicksburg, with Breckinridge's brigade, and was engaged in the defence of theplace when bombarded in 1862. Aug. 6, the regiment fought at Baton Rouge with a loss of 45 killed and wounded. Joining the army of Gen. Van Dorn, theForty-ninth was engaged in the assault on Corinth, and suffered very severely there. Ordered to Port Hudson, the regiment passed the winter in that quarter,and was brigaded with the Twenty-seventh and Thirty-fifth Alabama, and two Mississippi regiments under Gen. Buford, who was soon succeeded by Gen.Beall. The Forty-ninth shared the dangers and hardships of the 42 days siege of Port Hudson, losing 55 men killed and wounded, and the reminder captured.Exchanged three months later, the Forty-ninth re-organized at Cahaba, and was attached to the brigade of Gen. Scott of Louisiana, with the Twelfh Louisiana,and Twenty-seventh, Thirty-fifth, Fifty-fifth, and Fifty-seventh Alabama regments. Joining the main army at Dalton, the brigade was assigned to Loring'sdivision, Stewart's corps. Having wintered at Dalton, the Forty-ninth participated in the Dalton-Atlanta campaign, doing much arduous service, but losinginconsiderably. Around Atlanta it was again fully engaged, and suffered severely. It moved with Gen. Hood into Tennessee, and came out of the battles ofFranklin, and Nashville with a long list of casualties, and captured men. Transferred to the Carolinas, the Forty-ninth took part in the operations there. Reducedto a skeleton, it was surrendered at Greensboro, N. C.-----------------------------

THE FORTY-NINTH ALABAMA INFANTRY

The Forty-ninth regiment was organized at Nashville early inthe year 1862, and brigaded in April, under Colonel Trabue, inBreckinridge's division.

It was first known as Hale's Thirty-first, and some confusionhas arisen in the documents of the War Records between theForty-ninth and Hundley's Thirty-first regiment, but greatpains have been taken in collecting the extracts below.

The first battle of this regiment was Shiloh, April 6 and 7,1862, when it was commanded by Lieutenant-Colonel Gilbreath andfought nobly, losing quite a large number. It was warmlypraised by Colonel Trabue.

It formed part of the defense of Vicksburg during 1862, whenLieut. W. H. Boggess was killed, and again at Baton Rouge,August 15th where it lost severely. It followed Van Dorn toCorinth, and there again met heavy loss in the attack on thatplace.

The winter of 1862-63 was spent in the vicinity of Port Hudson.For a short time General Beall commanded the brigade, thenGeneral Buford. At the long siege of Port Hudson, the regimentlost a large number of its men; the balance were captured.

The regiment, when exchanged, was reorganized at Cahaba, andassigned to General Scott's brigade with the Twenty-seventh,Thirty-fifth, Fifty-fifth and Fifty-seventh Alabama. Sent toJohnston's army, the brigade, then in Loring's division,wintered at Dalton, taking part in the Dalton-Atlanta campaign,continually fighting and skirmishing, but with comparativelysmall loss until it came to Atlanta, where many were sacrificedon the altar of patriotism.

The regiment, reduced to a paltry number, was merged into theTwenty-seventh, in July, 1864, by consolidation with theTwenty-seventh and Thirty-fifth Alabama, which had also beenreduced to mere squads, and was commanded by Col. S. S. Ives,of the Thirty-fifth, with Lieut.-Col. John D. Weedon, of theForty- ninth.

The regiment was on detached service at Selma. With Hood, itfought in the battle of Franklin, November 30th, where ColonelIves was wounded; again at Nashville, December 15th and 16th,where many were killed and many captured.

Ordered to North Carolina, commanded by Capt. W. B. Beason, itsurrendered with Johnston's army near Smithfield, March 31,1865.

The captains killed were John R Gardner, at Shiloh, and John D.Rivers and F. A. Payne, at Port Hudson. Capt. W. S. Bruce wascaptured at Port Hudson, and died in prison; Capt. G. C.Leadbetter died in service.

The field officers were Cols. I. D. Hale and Jeptha Edwards;Lieut.-Cols. M. Gilbreath, W. N. Crump, John D. Weedon; andMajs. B. Johnston and Thomas A. Street.

Report of Col. Samuel S. Ives, Thirty-fifth Alabama Infantry, commandingTwenty-seventh, Thirty-fifth, and Forty-ninth AlabamaInfantry, of operations July 20.

HDQRS. 35TH, 27TH, AND 49TH ALABAMA REGIMENTS,In Fortifications, July 24, 1864.CAPT.: I have the honor to make the following report of thepart taken by my regiment in the action of the 20th instant:

In pursuance of orders I left my position at 1 p. m., and movedmy regiment about one mile along the intrenchments to the right.Here I was ordered to deposit my knapsacks in rear of the center ofthe brigade and form for action outside of the intrenchments, withorders to move forward by the right of companies to the front andallow no natural or artificial impediment to check our onward progress.Arriving at our skirmish line I received orders to form lineof battle and load, which was promptly executed. We then continuedto advance, driving the skirmishers of the enemy and a lineof battle formed in their rear, who fell back to their works. At thispoint the ensign and colors of the Thirty-third New Jersey Regimentwere captured by John E. Abernathy, Twenty-seventh AlabamaRegt. When within 100 yards of the enemy's works and whileunder a galling cross-fire, Lieut.-Col. McAlexander, commandingthe right wing of the regiment, received an order, throughCol. Nelson, of Twelfth Louisiana, from Lieut. Alexander,of Gen. Scott's staff, to fall back. This order was immediatelycommunicated to me, and I marched my regiment about fifty yardsslowly and reluctantly to the rear, where I met with Capt. McCranie,of Gen. Scott's staff, who informed me that no order tofall back had been given. He also stated to me that the works ofthe enemy had been captured on the right, and without awaitingfor orders I immediately about-faced my regiment and chargedover the enemy's works, capturing several prisoners and 3 pieces ofartillery.

Page 64: Ancestors of Anna Janet Tidwell

Ancestors of: Page 64 of 139Anna Janet Tidwell

The enemy offered but feeble resistance, and in their precipitousflight threw away their knapsacks, guns, and accouterments. Tomy great astonishment Lieut.-Col. McAlexander, commandingright, and Maj. Wright, commanding the left wing, communicatedto me the information that we had no support on our right orleft, when I immediately dispatched Col. McAlexander to Gen.Scott to ask for a support, but I soon discovered that my position wasso untenable for reasons apparent that I ordered the regiment to fallback under cover of the hill about 150 yards, and reported the factsto Gen. Scott. As soon as I fell back I threw out vedettes andawaited orders.

Owing to the peculiar conformation of the ground over which weadvanced and the hasty retreat of the enemy, my loss was only 32killed and wounded.

Respectfully submitted.

S. S. IVES,Col., Cmdg.

Census data all have her name spelled differently. Cancy Ann, Cinceana, Susana. death certificate for Phelan has Synsandis.Per Robert C Johnston, who has done extensive research on the Cornelius family:

As for the spelling of Cynthia Ann, the reason of use "Cynthia Ann", is two fold. The family of Beverly Cornelius, as the tradition has been handed down mydirection, was known as the "Ann" family. Beverly's paternal grandmother was Ann Cornelius (nee Dodson), and most of his daughters had Ann in their name.Secondly, the estate of Beverly Cornelius, recorded in Blount County, which he died intestate, consisted of over 30 pages in recorded books and over 100pages of loose records, including all the lawyer letters and documents, which I have copies of, but is packed up in storage. Most of the official court recordsduring the time of appraisal, sale of, and distribution of his estate to his children and grandchildren, all referred to her as "Cynthia Ann", which I deed to be theofficial spelling. Records like death certificates and census records were solely based on the sounding of the name and not actual spelling based on what herparents wanted her name to be spelled. She also used Cynthia Ann on her Confederate Widows Pension application, and she called her deceased husbandRowan Tidwell as "Ryan Tidwell", which must have been his nickname. I also have this record, but again, is packed up. Hope this helps.

I had the marriage date as 1826 but is more likely 1806 according to the birthdates ofthe children. (It is definitely not confirmed yet.) They had 8 children; you have them listed correctly except Ghazzam is spelled Gazzam. There was one lastdaughter named Vienna b. abt 1831.The 8 children were:

JOSIAH TIDWELLMaterial researched and/or transcribed by Barbara L. Van Norsdall

There is some confusion regarding the relationship between Josiah Tidwell and Blake Tidwell. They were next door neighbors in 1850. Josiah is PeggyTidwell's uncle and I (blv) assumed he was Blake's father. Blake and his wife Jennie named their youngest daughter Louvisa which sounds very close toJosiah's wife Louvenia known as Louvice. Then one of Blake's grandchildren, son of Francis, is named Josiah Blake. The only problem to this theory is aposting to Genforum, Tidwell Family Genealogy Forum December 13, 2001where a descendant found in court records of Josiah's son filed to sell his father'sproperty and it lists all the children and Blake's name is not listed. Blake is listed as the son of Robert Jr. and grandson of Robert Sr. But there aregenealogists who state that he is not the grandson of Robert Sr.

Notes on Karonhappuc "Carry" A TubbThe earliest origins of this particular female name are biblical....Keren-happuch(the horn of beauty ), the youngest of the daughters ofJob, born to him during the period of his reviving prosperity.(Job 42:14)The Oxford Dictionary of English Christian Names, by E.G. Withycombe, givesthe following:Kerenhappuch (f.): Hebrew "horn of stibium" (eyelash paint), the name ofone of the daughters of Job, the other two being Jemima and Keziah. It hasbeen used from time to time since the 17thC, and in actual use is generallyreduced to Keren.

Karonhappuc Tubb name from marriage license. Some records including census 1850 list her as Carry A. , this could be what she was called or convenientspelling. Other records showing Tubb family history use this spelling(or similar spelling), (Keren-happuch is the biblical spelling from Job Ch. 42 verse14)6/10/2000 From Roots Web: http://worldconnect.genealogy.rootsweb.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=nadeen_m&id=I8479</p><p>"ID:I8479</p><p>Name: Karenhappuck Cary TUBB Sex: F Birth: Abt 1806 in , , Tennessee Father: Samuel TUBB b: 1775 in Greenville Cnty, , South CarolinaMother: Mary UNKNOWN"2/26/1998 Conversation with James Meggs said Mary Tubb that married Thomas's brother William Meggs, was a sister to Karonhappuc Tubb.From WFT Vol 11 Notes on CarryTubb our Karonhappuc Letter dated 31 October, 1941, to Rosa Davenport, Silsbee, Texas from Sarah Moore Hancock,Route #3, Anson, TexasFrom:ftp://ftp.rootsweb.com/pub/usgenweb/al/perry/census/1830/pery1830.txt</p><p>Tubb's in 1830 Perry County Census</p><p>M FSlaves</p><p>45Tubb, Daniel 3 4 2</p><p>82Tubb, Elisha F. 1 3 4</p><p>54Tubb, James 3 2 8</p><p>58Tubb, James 1 1 1</p><p>51Tubb, Jeremiah 5 6 0</p><p>57Tubb, Joel C. 4 2 0</p><p>73Tubb, John 1 3 7 [Bapt.

Brief History of the Wheate (Wheat) Families Before 1798 as complied by Veston N. Wheat:

In 1634, seventeen year old Joshua Wheate came to New England from St. Saviours, Southwark, England, a small town close to London, England. JoshuaWheate, after coming to America, lived in what is now Concord, Mass. A few years later he moved back to England, selling his land in Concord to an olderbrother, Moses. By all accounts, this is where the Wheat Families in America started. The surname Wheat was spelled Wheate at the time. The WheateFamilies in America multiplied over the years and little is known about them until the late 1700's in North Carolina and South Carolina. We find no records inSouth Carolina to support this except the U.S. Census Record of 1850. We do not know when or how John Wheate (born about 1798) moved to TuscaloosaCo., Alabama. The earliest record of him is on file at the Tuscaloosa Co. Courthouse.

John Wheate was married to Sarrah Sturdivant about 1821. Sarrah was born in Virginia in 1798; where they were married is not known. John Wheate made awill in 1821 which named Sarrah Sturdivant benefactor of his estate. The will is on file at the Tuscaloosa Co. Courthouse.

John Wheate bought 79 acres of land from the United States Government in April, 1835. The record of John Wheate's land purchase is Land Certificate No.3866. Book G, page 582. This and other land purchases by the first Wheate's of Tuscaloosa Co. are recorded in the Courthouse. The land that John Wheatepurchased was the W 1/2 of the N-E 1/4 of Sect. 10 in Township 20 of Range 11, west in the District of Tuscaloosa.

John and Sarrah had six boys. John Wheate died on Dec. 9, 1854. Sarrah lived with her son, Joel H. Wheat after John's death, on the Moorer's Bridge Roadabout 6 miles from North Port. Sarrah Wheat died in 1873. It is believed that John and Sarrah were buried beside another son, William A. Wheat, on propertynow owned by Woodrow Pruitt, located off the Moor's Bridge Road about 9 miles from North Port, Alabama.

HISTORY OF ATLANTA LODGE No. 59, F. & A. M.

After having worked under a Dispensation issued April 13th, 1847, Atlanta Lodge No. 59 received a charter from the Most Worshipful Grand Lodge of Georgiaon October 26th, 1847, and, on December 31st, 1847, held its first election and installation of officers.CHARTER MEMBERS OF ATLANTA LODGE No. 59.

The following is a list of the officers and members of Atlanta Lodge No. 59, at the time its charter was issued:

Leonard Christopher Simpson, W. M.;Wyllus Buell, S. W.;Robert W. Clark, J. W.;James Lloyd, Treas.;H. Wells, Secretary;B. H. Thurman, S. D.;John W. Weaver, J. D.;Ruben Haynes, Tyler;

eleven M. M., as follows: Joel Kilsey, J. H. Meade, J. H. Gellen, Wm. Rushton, M. McDonald, Wm. Printup, C. P. S. Fisher, Geo. H. Smith, Wm. Kidd, Chas.H. Wesson and Daniel Holman; one F. C., J. W. Evans, and one E. A., A. W. Wheat.

Reports of cases in law and equity, argued and determined in the Supreme Court of the State of Georgia, at Milledgeville June Term 1887 and Part ofDecember Term 1887 ..., Volume 36Page 479Wheat vs. Arnold.

Augustus W. Wheat, plaintiff in error, vs. Charles W. Arnold, defendant in error. When a promissory note is offered in evidence, and it appears to have beenaltered in a material part thereof, it is incumbent on the plaintiff to explain such alteration. If a material alteration is made in a promissory note by a partyclaiming a benefit under it, with intent to defraud the maker or other parties to it, such alteration voids the whole contract, if they so insist; but if the alterationwas unintentional or by mistake, or not made with intent to defraud, it will be enforced by the Court. In such cases, the evidence should be clear andsatisfactory upon the point that the alteration of the note was made under such circumstances as will rebut all motive of any fraudulent intention; otherwise theparty making such material alteration, should suffer the legal consequences resulting therefrom. Assumpsit. Motion new trial. Decided by Judge UnderWood.Campbell Superior Court. February Term, 1867.

Arnold sued Wheat on the following promissory note: "$1,147.79.

Atlanta, Georgia, March 8th, 1858. Twelve months after date, I promise to pay to Thomas Bullard's order, at the Bank of Fulton, the sum of Eleven Hundredand Forty-seven Dollars and Seventy-nine Cents, for value received. A. W. Wheat."

Endorsed:—"Thomas Bullard," " Richard Moore," " J. C. Danforth."

The plea was that " said note has been altered and changed since he signed and delivered the same, without his knowledge or consent, in this, that the figureand letter ' 8th' following the word ' March' in said note, have been inserted since the signing and delivery of the same, and the words 'forty-five dollars andtwenty-nine cents' in the body of said note have been erased, and the words ' forty-seven dollars and seventy-nine cents ' interlined and written, instead of thefirst words aforesaid, and without the knowledge or consent of defendant." This plea is verified by Wheat's affidavit.

When the note was tendered in evidence, it was objected to on the ground that it " had been altered, erased and interlined, and antedated and increased to alarger amount after it had been signed and delivered by defendant and accepted by J. D. Lockhart, the then owner," &c. The objection was overruled, and thenote (and notarial protest) were read in evidence.

Plaintiff then examined William Aderhold, who testified, that he was, at the date of the note, defendant's chief clerk; he saw the note signed, sealed up in anenvelope and mailed to J. D. Lockhart, Atlanta, Georgia; that the words "forty-five dollars and twenty-nine cents" in the body of the note were not erased, andthe words " forty-seven dollars and seventy-nine cents " interlined in lieu of them, and the figure " 8 " following " March " was not inserted in said note, but wasa blank when the note was mailed.

A copy of original bill of goods was exhibited to witness, which was dated 22d of March, 1858, (in whose favor, against whom or for what amount the bill was,does not appear by the record); and witness stated that that was the date of the purchase of the goods; he saw them packed and was present at theirreception, and said bill was not otherwise settled for than by the giving of said note, and the words " forty-five dollars and twenty-nine cents " were erased, andthe words " forty-seven dollars and seventy-nine cents " were interlined after said note was given—which can be seen by reference to the note.

The evidence having closed, the Court charged the jury, that "if a written contract be altered intentionally and in a material part thereof, by a person claiming abenefit under it, with intent to defraud the other party, such alteration voids the whole contract, at the option of the other party. If the alteration be unintentional,or by mistake, or in an immaterial matter, or not with an intent to defraud, if the contract as originally executed, can be discovered and is still capable of

Page 89: Ancestors of Anna Janet Tidwell

Ancestors of: Page 89 of 139Anna Janet Tidwell

execution, it will be enforced by the Court. If the alteration be made by a stranger, and not at the instance or by collusion of a party or privy, if the original wordscan be restored, the contract will be enforced.

" The alteration in this case being as to the date and the amount of the note, is material, and that is a question for the Court and is a question of law, and Icharge you and decide it to be material. The fact of the alteration and the intention with which it was made, are facts for the jury to find. In order to avoid thiscontract, the jury should believe that the alteration was made with intent to defraud the other party, by the party claiming a benefit under it, as a privy of suchparty.

" If you believe, from all the evidence in the case, that the alteration was made without any fraudulent intent, and that the contract as originally executed can bediscovered and is capable of execution, it should be enforced; or if the alteration were made by a stranger, and not at the instance or by collusion of the party ora privy, if the original words and date can still be restored, the contract should be enforced. Fraud will not be presumed but must be proved, but may be provedby circumstances. You will consider and weigh all the evidence and all the circumstances of the case, and as you may believe, so find your verdict."

The verdict was for plaintiff, for $1,145.29 and costs.

Defendant's attorneys moved for a new trial on the following grounds:

1st. Because the Court erred in deciding that it was not incumbent on plaintiff to account for the alterations and interlineations and antedating of said notebefore submitting it to the jury, the plea alleging under oath these facts.

2d. Because the Court erred in charging " unless they believed the alterations of said note were made fraudulently, plaintiff had the right to recover on thesame, without proving how, or by whom, or when said alterations were made."

3d. Because the Court erred in charging the jury, that if they could ascertain what the contract was before the alterations, &c, were made, they had the right tofind a verdict for the amount of said note before altered, notwithstanding it was proved that the alterations were made after the execution and delivery of saidnote, and without the knowledge or consent of the defendant.

4th. Because the Court omitted to charge the jury, as was insisted on by defendant, that the onus was on the plaintiff to account for the alterations, and that thepresumption was that the alterations were made by the holder of the note, and would be presumed to be fraudulent in the absence of testimony to the contrary.

5th. Because the jury found contrary to law and the evidence.

The Court overruled the motion and refused a new trial. For this the case is brought up for review.

William Ezzard, J. M. Edge, for plaintiff in error.

J. W. Powell, for defendant in error.

Warner, C. J.

The error assigned to the judgment of the Court below in this case, is in refusing to grant the motion for a new trial upon the several grounds specified therein.This was a suit instituted upon a promissory note, alleged to have been altered in a material part thereof, after its execution and delivery. The defendant filedhis plea as to the fact of the alteration of the note under oath. When the note was offered in evidence, the defendant objected to its being read until thealteration had been explained or accounted for by the plaintiff. The Court overruled the objection, and allowed the note to be read in evidence to the jury. Wethink it was incumbent on the plaintiff to have explained the alteration on the face of the note, when offered in evidence, if required to do so. It is true, the 2803dsection of the Revised Code relates to instruments not set forth as the basis of the action, so as to require a denial on oath, but we apprehend that section ofthe Code was not intended to repeal the common-law rule of evidence in such cases by mere implication. If, on the production of the instrument, it appears tohave been altered, it is incumbent on the party offering it in evidence, to explain this appearance.—1st Greenleaf's Ev., 629, section 564. The plaintiff upon thetrial attempted to show that this note was given for a bill of goods purchased in Atlanta. The note is dated 8th March, 1858. The bill of goods is dated 22dMarch, 1858. By whom the bill of goods was sold, when, or on whose account, the record does not show, nor is the amount of the bill of goods shown.Whether the bill of goods corresponds with the altered amount of the note, does not appear. The evidence, as disclosed by the record before us, is entirelyvague and unsatisfactory as to the intent of the party making the alteration in the note. That the note has been altered, and in a material part, there is no doubt,but by whom, and with what intent, is the question to be determined by the Court and jury under the evidence in the case.

If the alteration of the note was intentional, made by a party claiming a benefit under it, with intent to defraud the maker or other parties to it, such alterationvoids the whole contract, if they so insist. If the alteration was unintentional, or by mistake, or not made with intent to defraud, it will be enforced by the Court.Revised Code, section 2801. To allow a material alteration to be made in commercial paper by the holder thereof, would be productive of great mischief, andwhenever it is done, the evidence should be clear and satisfactory that it was done under such circumstances as will rebut all motive of any fraudulentintention; otherwise, the party making such material alteration, should suffer the legal consequences resulting therefrom. The evidence in this record is notsufficient or satisfactory upon thai point, under the law which governs it, in our judgment, and we therefore reverse the judgment of the Court below, and ordera new trial in the case.

Possibly married first to Danforth?? Maiden name Grey??

On Roll 9, Frame 133 I found this handwritten account which reads as follows:October 1886 Frame 133Mrs. Augusta Wheat D 9/29Res 15 miles from Atlanta beyond the Chattahoochee River was driving to Atlanta with her nephew F.W. Danforth in a two mule wagon. The team startedaccross Pope's Bridge on the river but balked and started to back up. The wagon was pushed against a guard post. Danforth having lost control of the teamthe guard post broke and wagon, mules, Mrs. Wheat and Danforth dropped into the river 18 feet below. Mrs. Wheat was instantly killed. One of the muleswas fatally hurt and Danforth was uninjured. He is 50 years old and a well to do farmer of Cobb County. Note: was Mrs. Wheat related to Augustus W.Wheat?

That is what the note said verbatim with no (s) after the Mrs. Augusta. Also, the note asked the question in the last sentence.

Atlanta Constitution, Oct. 5, 1886 -- page 11 Column 2

MRS. WHEAT KILLED.

A Pair of Mules Back a Wagon Off a Bridge -The Result.

A horrible accident occurred at Pope's bridge on the Chattahoochee river, ten miles from Atlanta, Wednesday morning, in which Mrs. Augusta Wheat lost herlife, and her nephew was hurt, and narrowly escaped death too.Mrs. Wheat lived about fifteen miles from Atlanta, and at the time she was killed was coming to Atlanta. Early Wednesday morning, Mrs. Wheat, accompaniedby her nephew, a young man named Danforth, left their home in a two horse wagon, drawn by two mules. The day was a pleasant one, the roads were good,and as the mules trotted over the road, Mrs. Wheat, nor her nephew had no thought of the terrible calamity which awaited them. In reaching Atlanta it wasnecessary for them to cross the Chattahoochee river. Their most direct route was by the Pope bridge, and at that bridge the accident happened. A portion ofthe bridge is covered, and on either side of the roofed portion the sides of the bridge are protected by guards. When the team reached the bridge, the muleshesitated in stepping upon it. Young Danforth pushed them with the whip and they finally stepped upon the bridge, but advanced jumping, prancing, andshieing. Finally they came to the covered part of the bridge and stopped. The young man tried to force them on, but they refused to move forward and beganbacking. The young man sprang out, and grabbing one of the mules by the bridle, attempted to lead them over the bridge. He succeeded in stopping them intheir backward moving and started them through the bridge but after they had advanced a short distance they again stopped and again commenced backing.The young man lost all control of the mules, and in a second they pushed the rear end of the wagon against the guard, which gave way. The instant the guardgave way the rear wheels of the wagon dropped over the edge of the bridge, and in another second the wagon was hanging in the air and the mules were onthe bridge. The mules made a desperate effort to hold their own, but were quickly drawn over the edge of the bridge, and together Mrs. Wheat, the wagon,mules, and the young man, dropped into the river, a distance of eighteen feet. The water was not deep, and the instant the young man could regain his feet hebegan a search for his aunt. The search resulted in finding the lady dead. He carried her to the land, and then secured help from some one near by. The bodywas removed to a residence, and then several persons joined in recovering the mules and wagon. Both mules were badly hurt, and one of them died soon afterhe was taken from the water. The wagon was almost completely demolished. Mr. Danforth was considerably bruised by the fall.

Notes on William CorneliusBYNUM Family

Author: MARY LOU BOAZMAN HOWARD

Genealogy of the BYNUM FAMILY. This book, written in 1916, is an informal account of Jasper E . Bynum's kinsmen. It is a complete record ofhisdescendants dating all the way back to the first settlers of Murphree's Valley in Blount County.

The Cornelius family came from England. The families inBlount County descended from William C. Cornelius and AnnePhillips of North Carolina. Their son: William, came with hisfamily in 1818 to settle in this section of Alabama with theBynums and Murphrees and Allgoods.

William Cornelius (1754-1842), son of William C. and Anneand a soldier of the Revolution, married Lettice Cargile(1756-1834) in 1774 and settled in Greenville County, S. C. Theyhad eleven children: Anne (b. 1776); Jesse (b. 1778); Elizabeth(b. 1781), Moses (b. 1784; Aaron (b. 1786) William (1789-1864);Champion (b. 1792); Bevley (1794-1880); Lettice (b. 1797); Tabitha(1800-1852); and Abner (b. 1802). All these children except Eliza-beth were mentioned by name in their father's will; Elizabethhad died before his death (1842) and her portion of the estatewas left to "her children which she had by Calvin Waid." Thedescendants of William's son: Moses, are recorded in this book asa part of the Bynum family (see page 217 -- Chapter 4) Someadditional information concerning Moses' brothers and sisters isincluded by request in the supplement.

William and Lettice Cargile Cornelius, who had eleven child-ren (p. 288), settled south of Oneonta in the vicinity of Che-pultepec. All their children were born in South Carolina and theolder ones were married when the family came to Blount in 1818.All but four of the children were listed in the census of 1850.The four who died before that year were Anne, Elizabeth, Moses,and Lettice.

[Copied from photostat sent by W.F. Maynor, Judge of Probate, Blount County, Alabama, 16 Aug 1962]

from Military records on file in Washington and the NC StateArchives, that our William Cornelius (RWS) served in the Continental Line ofWashington's Army during the Revolution in Capt. Kingsbury's Artillery, aNorth Carolina raised company, from 1776-1778. William enlisted in thisNorth Carolina Artillery Company as a Matross on July 15, 1776. This wouldhave been three years after his younger brothers were bound out. He servedin this artillery unit until he was wounded in June, 1778

(Matross was a soldier of artillery, who ranked next below a gunner.

The duty of a matross was to assist the gunners in loading, firing and sponging the guns. They were provided with firelocks, and marched with thestore-wagons, acting as guards. In the American army a matross ranked as a private of artillery. --Wikipedia)

Notes on Moses CorneliusBeverly

I'm sending what I have on the parents of William Cornelius (1754). The infois a combination of my research and the article written by Robert Johnston.

Moses Cornelius

For many years it was generally accepted that the first known generationbegan with "William" or "William C." or "William Carl" Cornelius. Finally,new evidence, discovered in 2003, points to Moses Cornelius of Virginiabeing our known beginning.

While little is known at this time, Moses Cornelius was born (date unknown)in Virginia (probably) and died between 1767and 1770 in Pittsylvania County,Virginia. He married Anne Dodson, a daughter of Fortunatus Dodson andAlice Goad. Anne was born November 10, 1732 in North Farnham Parish,Richmond County, Virginia and died October 4, 1807 in Greenville County,South Carolina.

The known children of Moses Cornelius and Anne Dodson are:

1. William b. About 1754 d. July 27, 18422. Jeptha b. Between 1755-1773 d. About 18183. Moses b. between 1755-1773 d. Unknown

At this time I believe another son was probably Benjamin who appears in 1788and 1790 Greenville County, South Carolina land transactions along withWilliam and Jeptha. He is found in the 1790 census of Pendleton County,South Carolina. At that time Pendleton County was a part of the Old 96thDistrict, as was Greenville County

Anne is called "Anne Cornelius" as follows: "Wills of Richmond Co. byRobert Headley, Jr.pg 133 - pg 420, Alice Fowler, will; 27 Aug 1767, 7 Sept 1767; daughtersAnne Cornelius and Alice Dale; son Richard and John; ex: George Glascock andson John: wits: George Glascock, Jr. Rawleigh Gibson, George Hankes. [Note:Alice Fowler, originally married Fortunatus Dodson. Upon his death, shemarried John Fowler. Thus, Alice Fowler was Anne's mother].

The following was written by Robert C. Johnston, President of the FourFamilies Reunion in September 2003 issue of the Cornelius newsletter. Itsummarizes all that is known at this time. I have added some additional datain text.

"For years now, we have seen and heard, online and off, that the father ofour Revolution War Soldier (RWS), William Cornelius, was a man named"William C. Cornelius". This name was first published in a 1958 book called"Genealogy of the Bynum Family" by Mary Lou Bozeman Howard, with no mentionof where that name came from. All of the years I've been trying to documentmy Cornelius line, I have never been able to locate one document anywherethat contained that name, so I started searching for other possible namesfor the father of William Cornelius. The only document I had seen thatmentioned a parent of our William Cornelius (RWS) was the mysterious biblerecord of our Cornelius family, as mentioned in a letter back in 1930 by O.B. (Oscar Bluford) Cornelius. Even though it hasn't been seen for 100 years,

Page 117: Ancestors of Anna Janet Tidwell

Ancestors of: Page 117 of 139Anna Janet Tidwell

this 1930 letter about the family information found in the bible, as seenand reported by his brother some 30 years earlier, gave us the name "AnnCornelius" as the possible mother of our William Cornelius, but the name ofthe father was illegible or torn out, according to O. B. Cornelius.

A couple years ago, I started seeing theories that William's mother mighthave been Ann Dodson Cornelius Phillips of Pittsylvania Co., Virginia. Thiswas covered briefly in Velva Cornelius Cort's newsletter, CorneliusCrossroads, several years back, so I started doing some investigation on myown, looking for documents that might help solve this old mystery. I finallyfound a copy of the book by Benton Beverly Cornelius called "History of theCornelius Family" ca. 1910's in which he identified his grandfather, WilliamCornelius (RWS), as being one of "seven sons and three daughters". On a tripto Greenville, SC a couple years ago, I found all the land records of lastname "Cornelius" recorded in that county from 1785-1820 - which Itranscribed for the September 2001 issue of Four-Families Newsletter. Theseland records provided proof that our William Cornelius did indeed live inGreenville County, SC as early as 1786, and that he was acquainted with aJeptha Cornelius of the same County. These two were involved in landtransactions together on a couple of occasions. I also knew that a widow(living alone) by the name of "Anna Phillips" lived four doors down fromWilliam Cornelius (RWS) in the 1800 Greenville County Census, but shedisappeared by 1810 Census - which would explain the 1807 death date in themysterious Cornelius bible. Finally, after a couple years of searching, Ihave found some interesting documents that should help pull all thistogether which will hopefully, and finally, bring to rest, once-and-for-all,who the father of William Cornelius (RWS) really was.

1800 Greenville Co., SC, pg 25

Anna Cornelius Head of Household Female 45-Up = 1.

Rev. Silas Emmett Lucas, Jr., one of the most respected publishers inGenealogy, along with a Mrs. Sherman Williams, complied and published a book"The Dodson (Dotson) Family of North Farnham Parish, Richmond County,Virginia: A History and Genealogy of Their Descendants - Volume One", whichI have a copy of. On page 14 of this book, the authors discuss the 18thCentury family of Fortunatus Dodson and his wife Alice Goad, both ofRichmond Co., VA. Fortunatus Dodson was the son of a Charles Dodson andGrandson of a Charles Dodson. He was born about 1700 in Richmond County anddied Sept. 9, 1737 in the same County. He married Alice Goad on Sept. 9,1726. All of these dates were recorded in the North Farnham Parish recordbooks. Fortunatus and Alice had, among others, a daughter named Ann, whomthe authors claim was married first to a Moses Cornelius and second to aGeorge Phillips, and that she lived in Pittsylvania County. She had a son byMoses Cornelius and he fought in the Revolutionary War. With these leads, Iwent searching in Pittsylvania County, Virginia for concrete proof of thisfamily and their relationships. Here is what I found.

September Court 1760, Halifax County, Virginia: John Owen, Plaintiff, vsThomas Terry, Defendant, In trespass, assault, and battery. This day camethe parties by their Attorneys, and thereupon came also a jury, to wit,David Crew, Joseph Farguson, Robert Robinson Hunt, Edward Holder, JohnSutton, William Roberts, Thomas Duncan, John Bynum Jr., Moses Cornelius,Ephraim Hill, William Roberson, and Thomas Roberson, who say that theDefendant is guilty as charged, and assess Plaintiff's damages to 40shillings. Judgment to Plaintiff for the damages aforesaid.

Thisday came the parties by their Attorneys, and thereupon came also a jury, towit, Joseph Farguson, Robert Robinson Hunt, John Bynum Jr., Moses Cornelius,Ephraim Hill, David Crew, William Cornelius, John Owen, James Stewart,Daniel Obar, Edward Holden, and William Goore, who say that said Defendantsare not guilty. Judgment for Defendants for their costs.

In the 1767 List of Tithables for Pittsylvania County, Virginia taken byJohn Dix, a Moses Cornelius is listed as giving one (1) tithe. The nextTithable list available for Pittsylvania County was in 1770 and MosesCornelius is not listed.

July Court 1768, Pittsylvania County, Virginia. William Cornelius,Plaintiff, against Moses Cornelius, Defendant, on an attachment against the

Page 118: Ancestors of Anna Janet Tidwell

Ancestors of: Page 118 of 139Anna Janet Tidwell

Defendant's estate. The Plaintiff not appearing to prosecute, on the motionof the Defendant by his attorney, ordered that this attachment be dismissedand that the Plaintiff pay the Defendant his costs.

On June 24, 1768 (Pittsylvania Co. Court Records Book 1, 1767-1772, page 60)a court case between Richard Conner against Moses Cornelius, was recorded.

Conner vs. Cornelius

"Richard Conner, Plaintiff, against Moses Cornelius, Defendant

"This day came the Plaintiff by his attorney and came also William Wynne,the Garnishee, who in his solemn Affirmation saith that there is anunsettled amount between him and the Defendant which, when settled, willleave effects in his hands and the Defendant not appearing, the Plaintiffproved his demands for six pounds, five shillings to be just. Therefore itis considered by the Court that the Plaintiff recover against Defendant hisdebt together with his costs. And it is ordered that whatever balance ofmoney or other Effects shall appear to be due from the Garnishee to theDefendant on a settlement, be condemned and that he pay the same to thePlaintiff toward satisfying his judgment."

On the next day, in the June 25, 1768 Court of Pittsylvania Co., VA (CourtRecords Book 1, Page 64), the court case of "Wynne vs. Cornelius" wasdismissed. William Wynne was the Plaintiff and Moses Cornelius was theDefendant.

In the September Court of 1773 Pittsylvania County Virginia (Deed Book 2,Page 246), the following record is found:

Cornelius's to be bound out:

ORDERED that the Church wardens of the Parish of Camden in this County dobind out Moses and Jepheth Cornelius Orphans of Moses Cornelius deceased insuch manner as the law directs."

This record means that Moses Cornelius died sometime between June 25, 1768and September, 1773 in Pittsylvania Co., VA, more than likely between June,1768 and 1770, since he wasn't listed in the 1770 Tax List. This recordproves that Moses and Ann Cornelius had at least two sons named Moses andJeptha Cornelius. Since Jeptha Cornelius is not a common name and the onlyone found in Virginia records, it is assumed he was the same one found inland records with our William Cornelius (RWS) in Greenville Co., SC.

On September 1, 1780, Ann Cornelius of Pittsylvania County, VA was grantedby the State of Virginia, 202 acres of land on both sides of Buck Branch onFrying Pan Creek in northern Pittsylvania County (Land Office Patents "E",1775-1776, 1780-1781, page 786).

On January 30, 1790, the above mentioned 202 acres on Buck Branch of FryingPan Creek, was sold by Ann Cornelius and two of her sones WILLIAM CORNELIUSand JEPTHA CORNELIUS. This deed was recorded in Pittsylvania County,Virginia Deed Book 8, pages 526-527. A transcription of this deed, withspelling and punctuation intact, is provided here:

"THIS INDEBTURE made this 30th day of January one thousand seven hundred andninety Between Anne Cornelius and William Cornelius and Jephtha Cornelius ofPittsylvania County of the one part and Daniel Kreyder of the same place andCounty aforesaid Witnesseth that the said Ann Cornelius Wm Cornelius andJephtha Cornelius for and in consideration of the sum of one hundred poundsto them in hand paid by said Daniel Kreyder, the receipt whereof the saidAnn Cornelius, Wm Cornelius and Jeptha Cornelius doth hereby acknowledgehath bargained granted sold ----- and confirm and doth by these presentsbargain, grant, sell, ---- and confirm unto him the said Daniel Kreyder hisheirs Executors and Administrators forever a certain tract of land lying andbeing in the County of Pittsylvania containing two hundred and two acres onboth sides of Buck branch of Frying Pan Creek, be the same more or less andadjoining the lands of Jacob Barger, David Ross and the order land andbounded as followeth to wit, Beginning at a white oak thence new lines Southfifty and half degrees east eighty poles crossing a branch to a small whiteoak North forty seven degrees east one hundred and eighty poles to pointersNorth forty six degrees West one hundred and eighty four poles to a whiteoak South fifty seven and half degrees west one hundred and forty poles to a

Teste Will Tunstall C.C.

We know from Military records on file in Washington and the NC StateArchives, that our William Cornelius (RWS) served in the Continental Line ofWashington's Army during the Revolution in Capt. Kingsbury's Artillery, aNorth Carolina raised company, from 1776-1778. William enlisted in thisNorth Carolina Artillery Company as a Matross on July 15, 1776. This wouldhave been three years after his younger brothers were bound out. He servedin this artillery unit until he was wounded in June, 1778. SincePittsylvania County is located in the southern end of Virginia on the NorthCarolina line, it is possible he heard about a company being raised acrossthe state line and went off to join, possibly with friends or cousinsunidentified, leaving behind his widowed mother and younger siblings inPittsylvania County. Since we know from Census records that our WilliamCornelius (RWS) was born between 1750-1760 (no exact birth date has everbeen proven, and not to be confused with the like name from MD who was bornin Feb., 1754, it is assumed that our William was one of the oldest, if notthe oldest son of Moses Cornelius; therefore he could have been the onlychild to go off and fight in the war.

I have found no concrete evidence that this Cornelius family ever lived inNorth Carolina. There was another William Cornelius living in RutherfordCounty, NC, but he is proven to not be of our line [Rowland Cornelius'line]. I believe when Ann, William, and Jeptha sold their 202 acres of landin Pittsylvania Co., Virginia, they had no other ties to this county, andtherefore moved to Greenville County, South Carolina. We know that ourWilliam Cornelius (RWS) was already living in the old 96th District of SouthCarolina (now Greenville County) on March 6, 1786 when he was granted 500acres on Checheroc River "including the improvements wherein he now liveth"(SC State Grants Vol. 9, Page 157). In the 1790 Census for GreenvilleCounty, South Carolina, "Jafter Cornelius" was listed with a wife, one sonand one daughter, and our William Cornelius was living in the same Countywith four sons and three daughters. In the 1800 Greenville County, SouthCarolina Census, William Cornelius is listed with three sons under the ageof 10, two between 10 and 15 years of age, two daughters under 10 withWilliam being over the age of 45 and Lettice being between 26 and 44 yearsold. As mentioned above, there was an "Anna Phillips" living four doors downfrom William in 1800. She was living alone and over the age of 45. Jeptha isnot listed in 1800. He had moved out west and was one of the first settlersnear the present day Arkansas and Missouri border.

If this is indeed the family of our William Cornelius (RWS), and if themysterious Cornelius bible is correct, sometime between 1790 and 1800, AnnDodson Cornelius married a Phillips. This Phillips could possibly be theGeorge Phillips, son of Hannah Goad and Tobias Phillips of PittsylvaniaCounty, who was previously married, but he would have to have died before1800, since Ann Phillips is listed as a widow in the 1800 Census forGreenville County, South Carolina. Ann is not listed in the 1810 census forshe died October 4, 1807. No other proof of this death date has been foundother than what is listed in the mysterious Cornelius bible last seen 100

years.

Even though these records don't provide 100% concrete proof,beyond-a-reasonable doubt, that our William Cornelius was indeed the son ofMoses Cornelius, I feel it is as close as we have ever come to knowing thereal identity, without stepping back in time. If this is the same family,then these records would also explain why our William Cornelius (RWS) namedhis two oldest sons, Jesse and Moses. Jesse is an old nickname of Jeptha,which was his brother's name, whom he must have been very close to if henamed his oldest son after him. Moses is the name of his father who diedwhen William was only a young adult, soon to go fight in a new war forIndependence. There is so much more to discover out there, but time has beenlimited on my part. I hope these records will come in handy for othersreading this, and will others advance their research and correct anyundocumented information floating around."

Research Note:William WarmackWilliam Warmack, Jr. was the third son of William and Millicent Warmack, who had moved with their children from North Carolina to Davidson County, Tenn,about 1810. He was born in Kentucky on 5 August 1806, maybe while they were moving.

William Warmack, Jr. was one of the early settlers in Benton County, Tenn. He moved here with his family before 1840, as he was listed in the Benton County,TN census for 1840, with a wife and two young sons. William, Jr., owned 200 acres of land in Benton Co, and on 1 February 1844, bought an additional 200acres from Martha Wyatt.

In the 1850 Benton County census, William Warmack was listed with wife Rachel, age 38, and children: Thomas, age 18; William, age 15; Mary, age 8; Milly,age 6; Richard, age 4; Eliza, age 1. On 22 August 1852, Rachel died, and William married Eliza Jane Moss McNeil on 12 Dec 1854. They had one son JesseWarmack, born 29 Dec 1856. William Warmack died 5 May 1880.

William had other family who came to Benton County, including a brother Richard Robert. Richard went to California during the 1849 gold rush, and gotenough gold to come back to Davidson County, get his young family, and move to Benton County. He bought a farm on the 12 January 1856, in the RambleCreek Community.

Notes on Samuel CargoCargo KinBonnie C. Segui (View posts) Posted: 20 Aug 1999 8:57PM GMT

I have a Samuel Cargo in my family; however, I find him in Virginia, Augusta Co, about 1785. From there he went to Abbeville, SC where he died about1791-92. His son, also Samuel Alexander Cargo, is the original settler into Blount Co, AL about 1819. The Samuel and the four brothers that you mentioncame much, much later. My younger Samuel and family left VA for Blount Co, TN about 1806, then on to Alabama 1819. I do remember seeing a "HughCargo" in Blount Co, TN at the time my Cargo family was there.

Wish we could unravel this family as I have never been able to learn anything about my elder Samuel Cargo. Have no idea where he came from, but he justseems to appear in Augusta Co, VA.

The names you mentioned in your first query are names that I have in my grandmother's family here in Alabama. Hope you can find some connection in yourfiles.

Thanks, Bonnie

Notes on Richard Jackson YieldingRichard Yeilding BibleSubmitted by Lisa Wilson

The Yeildings settled in Blount Co., AL between 1812 and 1819. From 1795 to 1810, Richard Yeilding was at Walnut Creek and Green river, Rutherford Co.,NC. He served in the Revolutionary War from 1778-1781, in the 3rd VA Dragoons, Col. William Washington's Cavalry. A military plaque was supposed to havebeen placed in his honor in Blount Co., Alabama. In the dedication speach for the placement of this plaque it states the plaque had not been received by thededication date. This plaque has yet to be found in a Blount Co. cemetery. It is doubtfull it was ever placed.

In 1819, on May 20, Richard purchased land in Lawrence Co, Alabama Territory, Sec. 23, Twp. 6, Rng. 9W. Then on July 6, Richard and his son Francispurchased land in Blount Co., Alabama Territory, Sec. 27, Twp. 10, Rng. 1E.

In 1820, Richard was appointed with others to supervise the erection of public buildings in the Blount County Seat of Blountsville. In the 1840's he and Nancywere members of the Siloam Baptist Church in Royal, 6 miles east of Blountsville. The church is now the Church of God of Prophecy, Royal, Alabama.

The transcriber of these bible records is unknown to me (Lisa Wilson). I have not seen an original copy of this bible, so therefore I do not know exactly howthese records were entered. I am typing them exactly as was transcribed. I am sure this transcriber edited these entries. There would not have been reason towrite out dates and put them in numerical dates on the same entry.

Editor's Note (not Lisa Wilson): These pages are probably only a portion of the Bible; however, it supplies very valuable information. Perhaps the remainingparts of the Bible can be located and more information clarified. There appears to be at least three different scripts in the writing, although two of these couldbe the same script which has changed with the increasing age of the individual who entered the information. The author thinks that the Bible most likelybelonged to Richard and Milly Yeilding and then was passed on to Francis Yeilding and was then probably given to one of the descendants of Francis andBetsy Earles Yeilding.

He was married to Rhoda BROWN after 15 Aug 1758 in New Castle, New Castle, DE.

James landed at Newcastle, Delaware in October or August of 1750 or 1758, which seems more likely. He was born about 1740-1741, which means he wouldhave been about 17 years old when he arrived in America.

Notes on Margaret McDole or Madole1820 Census of Robertson County, Tennessee: Margaret Griffin:001100-01001 Boys are Larkin C. and Rueben and daughter is the youngest, Peggy.Margaret is over 45.1830 Census of Robertson County, Tennessee: Margaret Griffin:00101-0011010001 (Margaret is now 70-80. Given the birthdate of her youngest child, shewas probably just about 70. Margaret is now living with 5 unknown individuals. This could be her daughter, Sarah/Sally Herd, who was widowed from ThomasP. Herd in 1827. Sarah and Thomas had 3 minor children. Larkin C. Griffin would be the oldest male in the household and was the guardian of the Herdminors.)1832--Margaret Griffin has a guardian, her son Reuben. "Robertson County Probabe Court, November term, 1832, p. 105: "Robertson County Probate Court,November term, 1832, p. 105: "The foregoing account of sale of the estate of Margaret Griffinwas returned to court by Reuben Griffin, her guardian andordered to be recorded." Apparently, the family was selling her livestock, farm implements and household items because she was going to live with herdaughter, Lucinda Warnick, in HenryCounty, TN. Most of the items were bought by family members: Reuben Griffin, Moses McCarely, Samuel Madole,Richard Giffin, John Warnick, Sarah Herd, Hawkins Gregory and Jonathan Jones.1834--Moses McCarely is now the guardian for Margaret. He mad an accounting to the Probate Court, although Margaret was still living. Margaret held noteson John Warnick, Reuben Griffin, Jonathan Jones, Wm H. Morris, Phillip Mason, George Childress, David Traughber and V.W. Bernard. (The first three arefamily members). John Warnick was paid $58.00 for keeping Margaret. John also received $10.00 for the trouble and expense of taking Margaret fromRobertson County to Henry Co, TN) p. 300, February term, 1834.1835--Moses McCarely again makes an accounting to the Probate Court as guardian for Margaret Griffin. John Warnick was again paid for keeping Margaretfor 12 months. He was also given $5.00 for Margaret's coffin, although another accounting is recorded in the Robertson County probate court.

Notes on CargoSurname: CargoThis curious surname is of northern medieval English origin,, and is a locational name from the village of Cargo, north west of Carlisle in Cumberland. Thecomponent elements of the placename are believed to be either the British (pre Roman) "ker", fort, reflected in the Celtic "caer", fort, with the Old Norse "goe",bay, inlet; hence, "fort near an inlet", or the Olde English pre 7th Century "carr", rock, with "goe" (as above). There is also a hamlet called Cargo Fleet nearMiddlesbrough in the North Riding of Yorkshire which may have given rise to some instances of the surname. Locational names, such as this, were originallygiven to local landowners, and the lord of the manor, and especially as a means of identification to those who left their birthplace to settle elsewhere. OnSeptember 15th 1727, James Cargow, an infant, was christened in Edinburgh, Midlothian, Scotland, and on September 9th 1733, Elizabeth Cargo waschristened at Newcastle Upon Tyne, Northumberland. The surname is particularly well recorded in Church Registers of Lancashire, and in the Irish province ofUlster from the mid 18th Century, namebearers in the latter place most likely being of Scottish Planter stock. On March 11th 1749, one John Cargo was achristening witness at Benns Garden Church, Liverpool, Lancashire, and on November 6th 1802, the marriage of Ann Cargo to Samuel Waters took place atCarnmoney, County Antrim. The first recorded spelling of the family name is shown to be that of James Cargue, which was dated September 5th 1691,marriage to Agnas Wilsone, at Huntly, Aberdeenshire, Scotland, during the reign of William and Mary, 1689 - 1694. Surnames became necessary whengovernments introduced personal taxation. In England this was known as Poll Tax. Throughout the centuries, surnames in every country have continued to"develop" often leading to astonishing variants of the original spelling.

Notes on John Richard or Michael YieldingThe Yeilding stores shut down some time ago.

BTW - the spelling is Yielding not Yeilding. That particular branch changed to Yeilding because that ancestor ran illegal booze during the depresion - hadtrouble with the law and the name change from Yielding to Yeilding worked. Which worked for awhile. Also, BTW, no Yielding ever got a break in that store.Yeilding made sure Yielding and Yeldon were always kicked out.

The first known TIDWELL in America was RichardTIDWELL, born about 1635. Richard is thought to be from Staffordshire England,and came to Westmoreland County, VA as an indentured servant in 1657 atthe age of 14-21. He was indentured to a man by the name of Richard NELMS {or HELMS}. In 1663, Richard NELMS granted Richard TIDWELL and RobertJEFFRIES 350 acres of prime land on the Yeocomico River.

The brothers mentioned in Effie's book, Robert, Richard II, and John were actually sons of this Richard, and weresecond generation. Other KNOWN children were Ann, Martha, and Peter.

Notes on (Colonel) Ambrose MillsWhite Oak Plantation, located in Tryon, was originally part of a land grant by King George II to the Ambrose Mills family and is steeped in AmericanRevolutionary history.

Loyalist Colonel Ambrose Mills was made a prisoner at the Battle of Kings Mountain. The victors at Kings Mountain immediately marched north with theirprisoners, finally stopping at Biggerstaff’s plantation near Gilbertown, NC not far from Col. Andrew Hampton’s home place. There they tried, convicted andcondemned to the hangman’s noose thirty-six of the vilest Loyalists, including Ambrose Mills. In the end, only Mills and eight others were hanged.

presumably in England, County of Norfolk. (1) There are still Womacks in that area. On a tour of Englandin 1970 a Womack store was noticed in Sleaford. William is believed to have come to Henrico County,Virginia between 1630 and 1640. The five sons of William--William, Abraham, Richard, Thomas and John are mentioned in the Colonial Records of Virginia aswas the ancestral home being Norfolk, England. There were three daughters Ann, Mary, and Jane. Ref: Valentine Papers, Vol. III,pp. 1766-1802 [1] Laterresearch credits his place of birth as Wragby, Lincolnshire, Eng.

Chesterfield Co., Va. p.48 by Lutz. The descendants of William Womack remained essentially southern families. In the1790 census there were at least 30 Womack families inVirginia. There were 11 in North Carolina and 2 in South Carolina. Later they went westward to Tennessee, Kentucky and Missouri and later still to thenorthwest and farther west. They went south to Alabama, Georgia, Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, and other states. The Womack name is spelled with manyvariations in the records: Womack, Wamack, Wamoche, Wommack, Waamock, Wamocke and many others.The most used pronunciation of the families in North Carolina and Tennessee put the accent on the firstsyllable as Wom'ack. In a few instances an "r" was used in the first syllable as War'mack. Note: There is a Womack family in Massachusetts whose ancestryhas not been connected with the William Womack family of Henrico Co., Va.

Note: Archer Womack was listed as settler in Virginia in 1619. An Archer Womack of Greenup Co., Ky was born 1719 in Virginia. Ref: WomackGenealogy Vol 1 p 4 by Womack Family Assoc. William Womack Sr. is thought to be the "immigrant" ancestor of the WOMACK family with all its variousspellings.William Womack married Mary Jane Allen, a widow who died prior to 1685. William immigrated from the British Isles probably during the early 1630/40'ssettling in the area known as the "Bermuda Hundred." The family became members of the first Quaker Colony which according to church records, originated in1656. These members were for a large part of English extraction from the Tide Water section of Virginia, i.e., Cedar Creek and Henrico County. 2 Althoughproof is lacking, our Womacks are believed to have English roots. The Oft-told tradition of their having come to America from Wales is discounted by all whohave researched the name. It is thought the Welsh tradition might have evolved from a maternal line... perhaps Watkins (Gwatkins), but, here again, no proofhas been established. It has been suggested that the name might be of Norman origin. Discussion of this possibility was discussed in Sons of the Conqueror,by Leslie G. Pine: "Robert, son of Wimarc, a genuine Sussex pre-Conquest Norman, seems to have been strangely neglected by the earnest seekers afterNorman paternity. According to Round, Wimarc was a Breton name. I do not remember a pedigree made out from Robert, and I am certainly not suggestingone should be, but it is a remarkable fact that this Norman, one of the small band whom we know to have been settled in England in Edward the Confessor'sreign, should have been left unclaimed." Egbert Hudson Womack, a New York attorney, published several books on his lineage, including a respected work onthe Womack family titled Cherry Grove. [This booklet {as it pertains to our English roots and the early family in Virginia} included in the volume as a separatechapter]. In a letter dated October 1, 1958, to Mr. Oscar Womack of Daylight, Tennessee, the following paragraph is extracted: " I note that one of yourinquirers is interested in the origin of the name. I have done some research on the question and it is my view that it is derived from the Anglo-Saxon personalnames 'Wigmearc', 'Wihomarc', and 'Wimarc', {a Mercian Warrior}. See Barber's British Family Names {London, 1903}, p. 279. "Wig' was one of the commonAnglo-Saxon macian; {middle English maken}. Wimarc or Wymac was a feminine personal name. Robert, the son of Wimarc, is mentioned several times inthe Domesday Book {1086}. She was a lady of noble birth and Robert was the equerry and a close associate of Edward the Confessor. He is pictured at thedeath bed of Edward in the Bayeux Tapestry. However, Robert's desdendants apparently did not take Wimarc as the basis of their surname. "At the time of theDomesday Book, there was an undertenant named Wihomarc who is described as a follower of Count Alain. In the lists of wills probated in England between1541 and 1670, we find the surnames Wymarch, Wymark and Wymake. These variations seem near enough to the current pronunciation and variations inspelling to support the derivation suggested above. It is hardly necessary to add that many explanations of the derivation or meaning of the name have beengiven and some authorities do not agree with my view. "In 1958, when the above letter was written, Egbert Hudson Womack was living at 20 Exchange Placein New York City. Indications that the Womack immigrant may have come from Norfolk, England are tenuous, but interesting. This matter is discussed inCherry Grove by Egbert Hudson Womack: "Kathrine {Corbett} Womack, third wife of Bishop Laurence Womack, was sister of Frances Corbett, who marriedThomas Kemp in 1649.Ref: J.J. Muskett, in Suffolk Memorial Families, Vol. 2, p. 232. Bishop Womack named 'Robert Kemp, my nephew' in a [1685] codicil tohis will. Frances Kemp, in her will dated 7 February 1689, left 5 pounds to 'my sister Womack' and 'Kath. Womack' was a witness to her will. Richard andMatthew Kemp, and probably their brother, Edward, came to Virginia. They were second cousins of Thomas Kemp. It has been suggested that the firstWomack may have come over as an assistant to, or at the instigation of, one of the Kemps. While this is plausible, no definite proof has been found. "[Note:Old Virginia and Her Neighbors by John Fiske gives great detail about the Kemps.
