= Jamestown Colony Index = This Index is a work in progress. The goal is to index all WikiTree pages pertinent to the Jamestown Colony (1606–1625). Turns out there are lots (and lots and lots), and a lot of them need work to meet current WikiTree standards (such as category pages with in-depth articles included). So this may take a while. You can help! : Let us know of a page that should be on the Index but isn't by posting the URL as a comment or in the "[[#To be added|To be added]]" section. : If you are a [[Space: US Southern Colonies Jamestown Team#Members|Jamestown Team member]] and would like to "adopt" a page - be listed as the point of contact [POC] in the table [[#table1|below]] - post a comment as to which one or, if you're comfortable editing tables, add your name as the POC (and fill out the other columns).[[Space:Jamestown_Workspace|Click here]] for notes that might be useful for a more detailed plan. Basic tasks for POCs are, for both Space pages and Category pages: * review their page(s) for accuracy and currency * coordinate updates with the Team Leader, [[Richardson-7161|Mary Richardson]], and others as needed, and : for Category pages * review to ensure they meet current Categorization Project guidelines (coordinate with the US Southern Colonies Categorization Team) and * monitor profiles and pages categorized under it to ensure it is used appropriately (for example, watch for people profiles being added to top-level categories, or people profiles from a different place or time being added to a landing-level category). == Project / Virginia / Jamestown Quick-Nav Index (in Brief) == The following is provided here for reference.

Only the Jamestown Colony Ships category is included in the following table. See [[#Jamestown Colony Ships|below]] for a separate table of those pagesThe [[#Jamestown Colony Ships|Jamestown Colony Ships table]] is under development still - the intent is to have it include the same categories and pages as on [[:Category: Jamestown Colony Ships]], serving to support both maintenance of the pages listed and as a quality control check of categories and pages that should be listed at [[:Category: Jamestown Colony Ships]]. Note that [[:Category: Jamestown Colony Ships]] is in both tables. : If adding to either table, add alphabetically by page type (aka namespace), alphabetizing on the first word (then second, etc.) after the colon in the URL. Do not include a space after a pipe (|), which will mess up sorting. Same with the date - use mo/day format (do not lead with "0"). G2G posts of note and Image pages are listed separately, above. : The Categorized column shows current categorization. If it is missing a category or has an inappropriate category, please post a comment about what changes are needed. If the page is categorized under the [[:Category:Jamestown Colonists|Jamestown Colonists]] and/or the [[:Category:Jamestown Colony|Jamestown Colony]] categories, those categories should be listed first, using the following coding: [[:Category: Jamestown Colonists|Colonists]] & [[:Category: Jamestown Colony|Colony]],

''(deleting one or the other and the "&" as appropriate)'' A number in the Date/Notes column is the character count of text on the category page on that date (under 50 triggers the "too short" error; for "too long" errors, see [[https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Category_Creation_and_Removal#Briefly_describe_the_purpose_of_the_category|Category Help]] & [[Space:DBE_8061]] [which defines too long as 20k characters or more]). {| cellpadding="5" border="1" class="sortable" !Page

Reverend Hunt arrived with the first group of colonists in May of 1607, and he was by all accounts well respected in the colony. He passed away in early 1608 at Jamestown, and his remains are believed to be those found in the north end of the chancel in Jamestown's first church.

Since English stockholders of the Virginia Company wanted a profit based colony, Jamestown was to be the profit-based colony yielding profits such as that of tobacco. The first settlement looked like a palisade fort surrounded by the Indian settlements (Powhatan Confederacy). Women colonists did not arrive for 12 years). http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=jimscott&id=I15070 Virginia Company investors were composed of people who could pay their way to America as well as English Slaves (debtors) were sent over to work the fields. Most arrived not knowing how to plant or till the fields. Despite King James's disapproval of smoking ("a custom loathsome to the eye, hateful to the nose, harmful to the brain, dangerous to the lungs") and tobacco ("a filthy novelty") it became Virginia's cash crop, as colonists measured their wealth in the number of acres or processed hogsheads of tobacco. Jamestown was located on a peninsula, surrounded by an unhealthy marsh area, with mosquitos causing malaria. The colony began small, then disease and death reduced the small population. Malnutrition occurred along with dysentery (no chlorinated water), Colonists contracted malaria and yellow fever. Land erosion caused the peninsula to become an island. Due to the American plant being top harsh and bitter to suit English tastes, John Rolfe experimented to make it sweet scented. The town gained better foothold. Many smoked it in pipes. {{Image|file=Jamestown_Virginia_Colony-2.jpg |align=c |size=300 |caption=. }} '''1606 - 1612''' A severe drought occurred in Jamestown.

In 1698, his father gave him land and he married Elizabeth, daughter of Richard Kennon & his wife Elizabeth Worsham. It is likely that he turned 21 in 1698 (which puts his birth c1677). == Research Notes == Three of the four generations are not as complicated as the fourth, but the information for all gets muddled in many online trees. Details to help keep them straight that would weigh down their profile page are collected here. === Gene Lemmon's Research === : One researcher had the puzzle-pieces forming a comprehensive whole. The following is based on Gene Lemmon's research, as shared by a cousin, John Archer, who notes that a "quick check shows I have 4 Joseph Royalls inside my tree. Three of these spans from 1601 to 1747." == Immigration == The 1624/5 Jamestown Muster records 22-year-old Joseph Royal as a servant of Luke Boyse, having arrived aboard the ''Charitie'' in 1622. One website says that Joseph served as a ship's master for Boyse: :"At age 20 years, came to Virginia on the ship "Charitie", 22, July 1622. In the following year, in the census, he was listed at Neck of Land in Charles City. As shown in the muster he was one of two young men serving Luke Boyse. Joseph Royall was a ship's master in England and worked for a man by the name of Boise. In June of 1625, Boise outfitted a ship for transporting people to the colonies. The ship left England on July 1, 1625, with Mrs. Boise and four daughters as passengers for the trip over. On the trip, Captain Royall, "thru neglecte" caused sea water to ruin the clothing of the passengers. After her husband's death Mrs. Boyse petitioned the Court regarding an agreement entered into between her husband and young Royall: At this Court, 11, January 1626, there was a petition preferred by Mrs. Alice Boise, widow, against Joseph Royall servant to her late husband Luke Boise and showed a covenant bearing date 25, February 1625, wherein the said Joseph Royall was bound unto the said Luke Boise to perform certain conditions therein mentioned; whereupon, it is ordered, according to the said covenant that the said Joseph Royall shall make or cause to be made gratis for the said Alice Boise, her child and such servants as were then of this family all such apparel as they shall wear or use till such day and time as he shall depart this land, so long as those of the family shall either serve her or the child." Many websites say that the headrights Joseph claimed - including those for his 1st wife, Thomasine, his "then wife", Ann, and his future wife, Katherine - he had transported while serving as ship's master. See [[#Royall/Archer Land|below]] for information about grants of land to Royalls and Archers. Following is information about headrights related to Joseph Royall (and his brother Henry). : "Hannah Boyse, dau. and heir of Luke Boyse, late of Henrico, decd., patented in Nov., 1635, 300 ac. in Henrico adj. land of her mother Alice Edlowe; due 200 ac. for transportation of servants, viz.: 'Thomas Lewis, Robert Hallom, Joseph Royall, Edward Holland, and Oliver Allen'".From [https://walterfitzgilbertdehamilton.wordpress.com/page/14/ this website], perhaps from work by M. Stanhope, citing "Virginia Magazine, v., p. 97" (accessed 11 August 2021). :"On August 15, 1637 Joseph Royall, Sr, received 300 acres of land in Henrico Co on Turkey Island Creek for bringing colonists to the New World. According to the record, he was due '50 acres for his own personal adventure, 50 acres for the tansportation of his first wife, Thomasin, 50 acres for the transportation of Ann, his now wife, 50 for the transportation of his brother Henry, and 100 for the transportation of two persons, Rob(er)t and Jon(athan) Wells.'" :* Ann Royall, "she being his now wife" (no mention of relation to Henry); entry for Thomasin Royall has "(husband)"George Cabell Greer, ''Complete listing of Early Virginia Immigrants, 1623-1666,'' (from book published 1912), [http://www.evmedia.com/virginia/ plain text copy] (accessed 11 August 2021). The plain text copy is the result of Allen Price's scanning and correcting into plain text the information from Greer's (out of copyright) book. The legend notes that the date is that of arrival and the county was where the grant was. It is likely that the date is that of the grant as well.The Google sheet prepared by Allen Price of Nugent information (see next footnote) shows only three people for the 1637 grant: "Thomasin (ex-wife), Ann (wife), Henry (brother)", with Robert and John listed with Tho.

As of 2 June 1679, tithables also included * "It is hereby enacted and declared that all male persons, of what age soever imported into this country shalbe brought into the lysts and be lyable to the payment of all taxes, and all negros male and female being imported shalbe accompted tythable, and all Indian servants male or female however procured being adjudged sixteen years of age shalbe likewise tythable from which none shalbe exempted, but such christians only as are either natives of this country, or are imported free by their parents or others who shall not be lyable to the payment of levyes until they be sixteen years of age, or such others as by particular acts of assembly are exempted."

Baird, about Thomas Cheatham (1645-1726) explains the above list and gives additional information about Joseph Royal (see the linked page for footnoted information; footnote 5 has the same names: "The Bermuda Hundred list was: Mr. Martin Elam – 6, Edward Stratton Jr. – 3, Samuel Knibb – 2, Mr. Francis Epes – 9, Joseph Royall – 3, At Mrs. Isham’s – 6, George Browning – 5, Mr. [Richard] Kennon – 3, John Worsham – 4. Total – 44"). : In one of the earliest of Henrico County’s surviving records, on 9 November 1677, Thomas Chetham was a witness to a deed of gift by William Harris and his wife Mary to her father Thomas Wells.1 ... Also in July 1679 he [Thomas Chetham] was “aged 34 or thereabouts” when he testified that he, along with Joseph Royal, Francis Epes, and Samuel Knibbs had recovered horses belonging to Royal and his stepdaughter.3 Coincidentally, there survives in Henrico County a tithables list for June 1679 that shows Royal, Epes, and Knibbs as three of the nine heads of household residing at Bermuda Hundred. This particular record organized the county into lists of “every fforty tythables”, each of which was to be assessed a man and horse and supplies to build military forts.4 It isn’t completely clear what the listed names represent, but they were probably landowners — the nine names listed for Bermuda Hundred, for instance, commanded a total of 44 male tithables. Thomas Chetham was not listed anywhere by name, though his jury service clearly establishes that he was a freeholder. It seems likely that he was among the 44 tithables residing at Bermuda Hundred, perhaps as a tenant or lessee of one of the nine named residents.5 : He served on another coroner’s jury in June 1681 investigating the death of Walter Sher.6 Several months later in February 1681/2 he witnessed powers of attorney by Mary Royal and Ann Epes, given to William Epes. 7 : See also https://liveasfreepeople.com/2017/01/17/bowmans-of-early-virginia/ - 12 Dec 1795 Will of William Cheatham, Sr. names one of his grandsons as William Archer Walthall (will witnessed by Christopher Cheatham among others).

Most of the first few generations are in Henrico County and Chesterfield County, before Royalls and Archers start appearing in Amelia County - and at least one branch is found in Goochland County (maybe that branch led to Cumberland County families). How they interrelate is still being explored. :Summary: The adjacent counties of Henrico and Charles City were named counties in 1634 (Henrico County sharing its eastern and southern borders with Charles City County). In 1702, Prince George County was created from Charles City County and became Henrico County's neighbor to the south shared most of Henrico County's eastern border (Charles City County shared the northern-most part of that border). Goochland County was created in 1728 from Henrico County and lies to the northwest of Henrico County. Both Goochland County and Henrico County were adjacent to Amelia County (to the north) before 1749, when Cumberland County and Chesterfield County were created from the southern half of Goochland County and Henrico County, respectively. Amelia County had been created in 1734 from Brunswick County and Prince George County.

Conolly, 13522 Accord Court, Gainesville, VA 20155. :In 1638 Royall added to his land holdings 200 acres on the South side of the James River which he sold to EDWARD MARTINN. In 1638, he received 200 acres in Charles City County, Colony of Virginia for transporting four persons. In 1642, he received 600 more acres for transporting twelve people, including his third (to be) wife, Katherine Banks. This plot bounded the lands of Edward Maddox "above Shirley hundred acres, on the James river, to Dickinson's Creeke." (or is it this description? "above Shirley hundred, North by East upon the River to Dockman's Creek...adj. Daniel Llewellyn.") His plantation eventually grew to 1,100 acres, and he built a residence called "Doghams," named after the French river D'Augham. [I think maybe this statement from [http://dublinlaurenscountygeorgia.blogspot.com/2009/12/katherine-banks.html here]? or [https://varoots.tripod.com/royall/ here]? ] Doghams was located on the banks of the James River above "Shirley Hundred", Charles City, Colony of Virginia. This tract of land remained in the possession of the Royall family for 277 years. "Virginia Cavalcade", Spring 1956; Quote: Royall's last and largest patent, issued in 1642, was for 600 acres in Charles City County and was located on the banks of the James above "Shirley Hundred". This tract, long known as "Doghams", became the home of one branch of the Royall family, and it remained in their possession for 277 years. Since 1919, the estate, now "Riverview Farm", has been in other hands. Those who acquired the property at that time laid out handsome formal gardens, and these have been maintained and improved by the present owners. The tulip beds there, as well as the ancient boxwood planted by one of the Royalls, have attracted particular attention. Many visitors have admired these floral features annually during Garden Week. Recently, Dogham Farm, now called "Riverview Farm," has been approved for listing on the Virginia Landmarks Register, and has been recommended for the Virginia Department of Historic Resources for listing on the National Register of Historic Places. : Joseph Royall was deceased before March 10, 1655/56, As shown in a patent of that date describing Daniel Llewellyn's land as adjacent to that "lately belonging unto Joseph Royall, dec'd." ---- more about the Archers (hidden for now) = Adopted Profiles = This list is primarily for me, so I can remove myself as manager once I've done what I can to sort out these families and all the duplicate profiles.

Separation of sources, information, etc., to distinguish between; '''1) [[Marshall-1210|John Marshall (abt.1596-bef.1688)]]''' '''Birth Date & Location'''
John Marshall is estimated to have been born about 1596 to 1604 in Ireland. Most secondary sources give 1596 birth date with questionable documentation. Saunders states John's father, Thomas Marshall, married Mary Fitzgerald in or after 1602 in Ireland. * It is suggested that John was born about 1596, son of Thomas Marshall, and christened on 13 Nov 1596 at St Botolph, Aldgate, London. There is no confirmatory evidence this birth record refers to this John Marshall. This needs to be confirmed or rejected."England Births and Christenings, 1538-1975", database, FamilySearch (https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:NL2D-TLH : 5 February 2023), John Marshall, 1596. '''Immigration to Virginia'''
Secondary sources found and listed below state Capt. John Marshall left Ireland after the death of Charles I and the accession of Oliver Cromwell in 1649. They state he arrived first in Jamestown and after settled in Westmoreland County, Virginia. I have been unable to locate any records for John in Westmoreland County. Records are available for his son, [[Marshall-2468|Thomas Marshall II (abt.1655-1704)]], in Westmoreland and some of these are cited on Thomas' profile. Unfortunately, many sources cited on Thomas' profile refer to the John Marshall who settled in Isle of Wight County, not Westmoreland. Those sources will need to be re-examined and applied to the correct John after this Disambiguation study is completed. * "Florence McCarthy, of Clodane,A community named "Clodane" has not been located in Ireland; uncertain what location is actually meant. had a daughter Jane, who married John Marshall, son of Thomas Marshall who came to County Kerry in the expedition of Sir Charles Wilmot, 1602, and married Mary, daughter of Maurice Fitzgerald, of Ballymac Adam Castle, and settled there.

These were ancestors of the Markham and Pursell families (Burke's Landed Gentry, p. 1340.)

[https://archive.org/details/cu31924102201641/page/406/mode/2up page 407] ** It appears that in comparison to other sources, the information in this book is not accurate. Saunders is the only author to name the wife of John Marshall as Jane McCarthy. In addition, all other sources state John was captain in the army of Charles I. Saunders states he was captain in Cromwell's army. I am inclined to discount any information in this source when writing the biography of this John Marshall.

He was distinguished in the Indian wars. His son, Thomas Marshall, born about 1655, was a farmer in Washington parish, of that county, a prominent Episcopalian, and died in May, 1704. His wife's name was Martha, and their son, known as "John of the Forest," was born 1700, died in April, 1752.Tyler, Lyon Gardiner. ''Encyclopedia of Virginia Biography.''

Only one source gives a name to the wife of John Marshall: * Florence McCarthy, of Clodane, had a daughter Jane, who married John Marshall, son of Thomas Marshall who came to County Kerry in the expedition of Sir Charles Wilmot, 1602, and married Mary, daughter of Maurice Fitzgerald, of Ballymac Adam Castle, and settled there. Jane is not the daughter of [[MacCarthy_Reagh-24|Finnian (Florence) MacCarthy Reagh (1560-1640)]]. Florence and wife Elana had only four known children: Teige dsp Tower of London, Donal McCarthy, Finnegan McCarty (Florence), Cormac; all sons and no daughter Jane.[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Florence_MacCarthy Florence MacCarthy] It appears from the birth date of son Thomas Marshall (1655) that Capt. John married an unknown wife once he arrived in Virginia about 1650. Profile of Jane McCarthy should probably be changed to "Unknown" with an estimated birth date of about 1635, possibly in Virginia. * Capt. John Marshall of Virginia, b. 1596, in England; served as Capt of Cavalry in the Royal Army, of Charles I.; came to Virginia in 1650, and settled firstly at Jamestown, but later removed to Westmoreland Co.

However, all records for Elizabeth Scowne, perhaps Elizabeth, widow of William Westray/Westwray of Isle of Wight, are found in Isle of Wight County, Virginia. She was never in Westmoreland County. She should be unlinked as wife of John Marshall and mother of his children. Other children linked to this profile should be removed as there is no documentation showing they belong to this John Marshall: * [[Marshall-2256|Robert Marshall (abt.1624-abt.1698)]], dup. needs merging * [[Marshall-1211|Humphrey Marshall (bef.1640-1711)]] * [[Marshall-7624|Robert Marshall (abt.1650-)]], dup. needs merging * [[Marshall-5023|John Marshall (1650-)]], may be duplicate of son John born 1660 '''Death'''
The death date of Capt. John Marshall of Ireland is unknown. He is known to have had a son, Thomas, born in 1655, and possibly either a son John or William (both are named in various sources) born about 1660. No will or record of his death has been located. It is probably best to state that John died after about 1660 in Westmoreland County, Virginia. '''Research Notes'''
All sources referring to John Marshall of Isle of Wight County, Virginia, need to be removed from this profile. He never lived in Isle of Wight and did not leave a will there. All property transactions, etc., in Isle of Wight belong to John Marshall discussed below. '''2) John Marshall, abt 1614-1688'''
John is estimated to have been born about 1614, probably in England, settled in Isle of Wight County, Virginia, wife's name uncertain. Known children: Robert, Humphrey, and Mary. John's parents are unknown. He refers to brother Humphrey Marshall in his will. It should be noted that the parents of [[Marshall-1210|John Marshall]] (No. 1 above), are not recorded as having a son Humphrey. '''Immigration to Virginia'''

No record has been found for the marriage of John Marshall, so the date, location and name of his wife are unknown. He is sometimes linked to Elizabeth, widow of William Westray of Isle of Wight. And this Elizabeth is often identified as Elizabeth Scowne. In 1666, widow Elizabeth deeded her estate to "John Marshall and Humphrey, his son, as evidence to my children John and Humphrey Marshall."

(Madison, Wisconsin: Brant, Fuller & Co., 1890). * Edward Kinsey Voorhees, ''Notes on the Pocock Family'' (Atlanta, Georgia: Voorhees, 1930). * Robert W. Barnes, ''Baltimore County Families, 1659–1759'' (Baltimore, Maryland: Genealogical Publishing Co., Inc., 1989). ''History of Indiana'' (1890) includes a profile of [[Pocock-853|Elias Hicks Pocock (1832-1906)]], and his [[Pocock-282|father]] and [[Pocock-82|grandfather]], presumably authored by a son or daughter of Elias. Voorhees (1930) presents his genealogy research for the same three individuals. As will be seen below, Barnes (1989) copies and presents a subset of the Pocock lineage presented by Voorhees, adds [[Pocock-706|one earlier generation]], and corrects several birth dates from Voorhees. There are also some minor, inexplicable differences in other birth dates between the two. == ''History of Indiana'' (1890) == [analysis in progress] A biographical ''profile'' of [[Pocock-853|Elias Hicks Pocock (1832-1906)]] was published in ''History of Indiana, Special Edition for Marshall County'' (1890). ''History of Indiana, Special Edition for Marshall County'', 2 vols. (Madison, Wisconsin: Brant, Fuller & Co., 1890), 2:264-265; digital images, Archive.org (https://archive.org/details/historyofindiana02bran/page/n6/mode/1up). He was living in Walnut Township, Marshall Co., at the time. The ''profile'' additionally discusses: * [[Pocock-282|Elijah Pocock Sr (1770-1862)]], his father * [[Pocock-82|Daniel Pocock Jr (abt.1719-1800)]], his grandfather The ''profile'' is unsourced, not unexpected as the book presents a ''History'' rather than a ''Genealogy''. From an examination of the two volumes, we surmise the many profiles presented were each written by the subject of the profile or a close relative. Elijah and Daniel had been deceased about 30 years and 90 years respectively by then. Elias was about 58 years old at the time (1890), and died 16 years later. We therefore presume the ''profile'' was authored by a son or daughter with access to Elias as a primary source. ''[[Pocock-82|Daniel Pocock Jr]]'' [The portions below marked with a strikethrough have been reviewed, sourced, and disproven/clarified/confirmed/not confirmed.] :[[Pocock-853|Elias Hicks Pocock]], a citizen of Walnut township, is the subject of this biography. [[Pocock-82|Daniel Pocock]], his paternal grandfather, was born in England about 1718, and at an early age emigrated to America, and in 1734 settled in what is now Harford county, Maryland. At Baltimore he heard of Eleanor Pocock, a native of England, who had emigrated with relatives in about 1734, but no relation could be traced, and in 1736 they were united in marriage. To their union there were born the following offspring: [[Pocock-321|Salem]], Charity [not attached] [[Pocock-519|Daniel]], Nella [[[Pocock-1055|Eleanor]]?], [[Pocock-992|David]], Jesse [[[Pocock-359|James]] or [[Pocock-557|John]]?], [[Pocock-83|Mary]], Elisia [[[Pocock-1056|Susannah]]?], [[Pocock-1057|Charlotte]] and [[Pocock-282|Elijah]]. Before coming to this country Daniel Pocock was a soldier in the British Army and during the American revolution he was a tory. Notwithstanding his father's political loyalty to the king, the oldest son, Salem by name, became a colonial soldier, and served as captain of a company during the war of independence. Daniel Pocock was a rich slave holder, and a farmer by occupation. The following items in the ''profile'' have been disproven: *: tbs [in process] The following items in the ''profile'' benefit from clarification: * "[[Pocock-82|Daniel Pocock]], his paternal grandfather, was born in England about 1718, …" *: According to his gravestone, {{FindAGrave|80794721}} for Daniel Pocock Jr. (1720–1800). [[Pocock-82|Daniel Pocock Jr]], was age 80 when he died on 27 January 1800. He was therefore ''presumably'' born between 27 January 1719 and 27 January 1720. His birth date is therefore listed as "about" 1719, instead of ''about'' 1718. Note that 1 January 1719 to 24 March 1719 would have been 1718 in the Julian Calendar used at the time. *: tbs [in process] The following items in the ''profile'' have not been confirmed: *: tbs [in process] ''[[Pocock-282|Elijah Pocock Sr]]'' [The portions below marked with a strikethrough have been reviewed, sourced, and disproven/clarified/confirmed.] :His son, [[Pocock-282|Elijah]], the father of our subject, was born in Harford county, Md., in 1770, and died in Wayne county, Ohio, in 1863. He was raised on a farm. At about nineteen, he was placed in Washington county, Penn., to learn the blacksmith's trade. Here he became associated with a class of Quakers, to which faith he became converted, remaining faithful to the church of his choice until his death. Upon the death of his father he became heir to fourteen slaves and other property, but slavery not being in harmony with his views, these bondmen were accordingly liberated. Subsequently he became united in marriage with [[Hughes-14526|Catherine Hughes]], who by the marriage became the mother of [[Pocock-373|Daniel]], Joseph [not attached], [[Pocock-281|James]], [[Pocock-544|Elijah]] and Elizabeth [not attached]. Some years after the mother's death Mr. Pocock wedded for a second wife, [[Smith-232200|Grace Smith]], who became the mother of the following children: [[Pocock-543|Jabez]], [[Pocock-3|Eleanor]], [[Pocock-917|Cornelius]], [[Pocock-853|Elias]], [[Pocock-918|Robert]], [[Pocock-983|Rachel]], [[Pocock-984|William]], [[Pocock-985|David]], [[Pocock-986|Dudley]] and John [not attached]. In about 1819 Elijah Pocock became an early settler of Wayne county, Ohio, and there remained till he died. He cast his first presidential vote for Washington and his last for Lincoln. The following items in the ''profile'' benefit from clarification: * "His son, [[Pocock-282|Elijah]], the father of our subject, was born in Harford county, Md., in 1770, and died in Wayne county, Ohio, in 1863." *: When Elijah was born, it was ''Baltimore Co., Maryland''. Baltimore Co. was created on 30 June 1659 as an original county from unorganized territory. Harford Co. was created on 17 December 1773 from Baltimore Co. *: Elijah's gravestone lists his death as "Aug. 29, 1862" instead of ''1863''. * "In about 1819 Elijah Pocock became an early settler of Wayne county, Ohio, and there remained till he died." *: ''Elijah Pocock of Harford County, Maryland'' first patented land in Wayne Co., Ohio, in 1815. Elijah is listed in 1820 US Census in Harford Co., Maryland. ''Elijah Pocock of Wayne County'', Ohio, is listed in BLM records in 1821. No record has been found that he removed from Maryland to Ohio ''before'' 1821. ''[[Pocock-853|Elias Hicks Pocock]]'' [The portions below marked with a strikethrough have been reviewed, sourced, and disproven/clarified/confirmed/not confirmed.] :His son, [[Pocock-853|Elias H.]], the immediate subject of this sketch, was born in Wayne county, Ohio, May 10, 1832. He was raised on a farm and given a liberal common school education, and remained on the farm with his father till past twenty-two years of age. At the age of twenty-one he began the study of medicine. In 1866 he graduated from the Charity Hospital medical college of Cleveland, Ohio, and in 1870, graduated from the Starling Medical college, of Columbus, Ohio. He then continued an active and successful practice up to 1879, coming to Marshall county in 1872, remaining in the county, being new located on a farm in Walnut township. He abandoned the medical profession for farming, which he has since followed as a matter of choice. He served as surgeon in the United States army from October, 1862, to September, 1864. In 1853 he was united in marriage with [[Hinkle-2681|Mary A. Hinkle]], who died after there was born three children, namely: Charles, Lee and Frank. In 1876 he married Mary A. Reddinger, who died after the birth of Grace and Rett. In 1883 he married his present wife, Mary E. Bowman. Dr. Pocock is a progressive citizen, a close student of the classics and sciences, and is one of the intelligent men of Marshall county. The following items in the ''profile'' benefit from clarification: * "In 1853 he ([[Pocock-853|Elias Hicks Pocock]]) was united in marriage with [[Hinkle-2681|Mary A. Hinkle]], who died after there was born three children, namely: Charles, Lee and Frank." *: They did indeed marry and have at least three (3), perhaps five (5), children. We are however left to assume Mary died soon after the birth of the children. Mary is listed as divorced in the 1880 US Census, apparently remarried with an Aylesworth, and died in 1924. The following items in the ''profile'' have not been confirmed: * "At the age of twenty-one he began the study of medicine. In 1866 he graduated from the Charity Hospital medical college of Cleveland, Ohio …" *: He is listed as a ''farmer'' in the 1850 US Census, age 18. *: He is listed as a ''day laborer'' in the 1860 US Census, age 29. *: He is listed as a ''physician'' in the 1870 US Census, age 33. *: Charity Hospital medical College is presumably the same as this medical college: [https://www.stvincentcharity.com/about/history-timeline St. Vincent Charity Medical Center Milestones]. The medical college opened in 1864 or 1865, according to various websites. *: Where did he study between about 1853 and 1864? * "He served as surgeon in the United States army from October, 1862, to September, 1864. " *: While a draft registration has been located for him, no record of actual service has been found. If he did serve, he presumably was not a ''surgeon'' if he was a ''day laborer'' in 1860, and did not graduate from medical college until 1866. == ''Notes on the Pocock Family'' (1930) == Edward Kinsey Voorhees' ''compilation'' entitled ''Notes on the Pocock Family'' (1830) Edward Kinsey Voorhees, ''Notes on the Pocock Family'' (Atlanta, Georgia: Voorhees, 1930); digital images, FamilySearch (https://www.familysearch.org/library/books/records/item/32859-notes-on-the-pocock-family); digital images, Ancestry.com (https://www.ancestry.com/sharing/3738751?mark=7b22746f6b656e223a224870414f785453744b7142576253574d6b366c6f326f64434c4444597a4d6767704b3672724569786a62593d222c22746f6b656e5f76657273696f6e223a225632227d) [contains an additional handwritten page, image 10]. presents the descendent lineage of [[Pocock-82|Daniel Pocock Jr (abt.1719-1800)]], and identifies '''Daniel Jr''' as the Pocock immigrant. Voorhees lists eleven (11) children for '''Daniel Jr'''. Voorhees does not mention [[Pocock-706|Daniel Pocock Sr (abt.1693-bef.1784)]] or any of the other Pocock contempories of '''Daniel Jr''' in Baltimore Co. Voorhees' omission of their existence in the same place at the same time (1730s–1780s) is inexplicable. Voorhees describes basing his ''compilation'' on a prior family genealogy by Mr. Salem Clawson and additional information from Voorhees' mother and other family members, but does not cite these sources. Voorhees '''cites''' births, marriages, land records, court proceedings, and Wills when available, but in four (4) cases curiously lists a different birth date than that listed in the Church Register birth records that he also cites. For context, a "rough order-of-magnitude" 50% of the vital statistics and family relationships (parent-child) in Voorhees are '''unsourced'''. == ''Baltimore County Families'' (1989) == Robert W. Barnes' ''Baltimore County Families, 1659–1759'' (1989) Robert W. Barnes, ''Baltimore County Families, 1659–1759'' (Baltimore, Maryland: Genealogical Publishing Co., Inc., 1989), 510-511; digital images, Archive.org (https://archive.org/details/baltimorecountyf0000barn/page/n6/mode/1up); digital images, Ancestry.com (https://www.ancestry.com/sharing/682806?mark=7b22746f6b656e223a22517a6b63417452623749465078744f4e62466768797a7131744d552b5569613343514a43655a43585176633d222c22746f6b656e5f76657273696f6e223a225632227d). profiles [[Pocock-706|Daniel Pocock Sr (abt.1693-bef.1784)]], and identifies him as the father of five (5) children including [[Pocock-82|Daniel Pocock Jr (abt.1719-1800)]], thereby making '''Daniel Sr''' the Pocock immigrant. Barnes therefore also identifies five (5) Pocock contempories of '''Daniel Jr''' in Baltimore Co. Barnes lists the same eleven (11) children for '''Daniel Jr'''. Barnes identifies three (3) additional spouses of these children. Barnes does not appear to prove any of Voorhees' unsourced parent-child relationships, but does list the Church Register birth dates for the four (4) "curious" cases referred to above. Barnes references Voorhees, but also provides '''citations''' for each profile. Barnes' profiles present a subset of the information contained in Voorhees, and he does correct the four (4) "curious" birth dates in Voorhees. Based on these corrections, his methodical presentation of citations for each profile, and presentation of a comprehensive bibliography, we can surmise he independently confirmed each of the citations referred to by Voorhees. Five (5) of '''Daniel Jr''''s eleven (11) purported children have Church Register birth records. Of the remaining six (6) children, Voorhees and Barnes list slightly different birth dates for five (5) of them. Only the day of the month is different. We can surmise Barnes copied these from Voorhees, making typos. Alternatively, we can surmise Voorhees and Barnes both had access to an unknown source, and one or both of them make typos. Regarding '''Daniel Jr''''s daughter Mary, Barnes curiously states "(Voorhees gives her husband's name as Thomas Galloway)". However, both Voorhees and Barnes list her husband as William Galloway. For context, as Barnes relies heavily on Voorhees, a "rough order-of-magnitude" 50% of the vital statistics and family relationships (parent-child) in Barnes are '''unsourced'''.

[[Category:Sources by Name]][[Category: US Southern Colonies Family Studies]] == Citation == Cameron Allen, "The Origin of Bartholomew Dupuy of Manakin Town, Virginia and His Wife," in ''The American Genealogist,'' 74 (1999):1-14 at [https://www.americanancestors.org/databases/american-genealogist-the/image/?pageName=1&volumeId=13222 NEHGS] (subscription required). == Relevant Wikitree Profiles == * [[Dupuy-25|Bartholomew Dupuy]] * [[Lavillon-1|Susanne Lavillon]] * [[Gaudier-1|Marie Gardie(r)]] == Commentary == This article is perhaps the most definitive about the ancestry of this Huguenot immigrant to the American colonies, and is a must-read for all descendants or researchers of this Dupuy branch. Of particular impact is the blowing apart of generations-held tradition that Bartholomew's wife was a countess by the name of Susanne Lavillon. The author traces the origins of this tradition and presents contemporaneous documentation that Dupuy's wife was none other than Marie Gardie(r), and that there is actually no evidence that anyone-- countess or otherwise-- name Susanne Lavillon existed. Key findings include: * "The earliest known effort to supply information on the Dupuy family occurred in a letter written back to Virginia by John Dupuy (1738-1831) from Kentucky on 30 Jan 1814 to his much younger, inquiring cousin, Dr. William Jones Dupuy. The letter writer was a grandson of the immigrant, and at its writing he was a man nearing 76 years of age." The letter identifies his grandfather Bartholomew, claims a 1650-1653 birth in France, other details, including reference to Bartholomew's wife, '''but does not name her.''' * That the creation of a comtesse Susanne Lavillon came from a) copying the name of Bartholomew's '''daughter-in-law,''' Susanne LaVillain; b) extracting data from a publication about a completely different family (who also settled in Virginia); and c) giving the wife nobility to enhance the drama of the ancestors' lives in a "long and flowery romance" written by novelist John Esten Cooke and published in ''Harper's New Monthly Magazine,'' in 1857. * Subsequent authors recycled this story in 1870 (William Henry Foote), 1885 (Charles W. Baird), 1886 (R. A. Brock), 1908 (Rev. Benjamin Hunter Dupuy). The repetition continued on well into the 20th century. ** The author adds a sidebar denouncing the 16-generation pedigree created by Henry Dudley Teetor (1906). * Researchers started to question the lineage in 1963 * There exists no contemporaneous record linking Bartholomew with a wife name Susanne * The actual name of Bartholomew's wife was recorded 16 Jun 1714 on a patent that named "Bartholomew Dupuy, '''Mary Gardie,''' Peter [---], John Peter, John James, Martha & Philipe Dupuy." * Marie is named in two additional records as wife of Bartholomew (without maiden name) * The names of the children above are also reflected in Bartholomew's will. The 1742/3 will does not mention his wife, suggesting she was deceased by this time. * Amsterdam records find Bartholomew and Marie baptizing a child in 1689 * Magdeburg Germany records find Bartholomew and Marie baptizing children one of which matches a known Virginia child. * The above baptism records identify the place of origin of both Bartholomew and Marie as St Jean de Maruejlos or Uzes in the Province of Languedoc, both of which had Huguenot populations.

Northeast by the woods, southwest by the river, northwest by Bremo & land of Mr. Richard Cocke, & southeast toward Turkey Island Creek adj land of John Price. B.L. Price says John arrived with wife [[Kemeye-1|Mary]] and son William. V.C. Price says no, but that he and Mary had two sons and a daughter. At least one researcher supposes that the 3-month-old Mary in his household at the time of the 1624/5 Jamestown Muster, which he shares with his wife Ann Price, is the daughter of his 1st wife Mary. The William Price mentioned by B.L. Price is listed separately from John in the 1624/5 Muster, and there is no evidence to support that this William is John's son (William's age in the muster is not given). Separate from the question of how many children he had, where, and by whom, is the 1638 patent naming Mathew Price son and heir of John Price and recieving the 150 acres granted to John Price in February 1619. It would seem that the John Price who arrived aboard the ''Starr'' in May (probably 1611) is the only candidate for this - John, son of Hugh Price, would have been 17 in 1619. John could have earned 100 acres by working 7 years and the other 50 for the transportation of one person (earning the 50-acre "headright").

Reproduced onto Family History: Colonial Genealogies #1 1607-1920, CD, Genealogical Publishing Co., Inc. . The blog says she arrived in 1620 as Ann Price with their three children, but the muster's list of people arriving aboard the ''Bonaventure'' does not include any Price children, and a search for Price in the 1624/5 Jamestown Muster shows John Price's household as just himself - head, age 40, arrived aboard the ''Starr'' - and his wife Anne. It should also be noted that most passenger lists of this time, including the one for the April 1620 voyage of the ''Francis Bonaventure,''Passenger list compiled by Anne Stevens (see [https://www.packrat-pro.com/ships/francisbon.htm this page]). are based on the 1624/5 Jamestown muster, which lists her as Ann Price. She may not have been (and probably wasn't) married when she arrived in August 1620, and certainly not with three children at age 16. If an original passenger list for that voyage of the ''Francis Bonaventure'' could be found, it would answer the question of either what her maiden name was or whether she married John in England or Virginia. There are two Edward Prices in the February 1623/4 Living and Dead List - one living, one dead, but neither at Neck of Land, where John Price and his wife are listed. There is, however, an Edward (no last name) listed as among the dead at Neck of Land.[http://www.jamestowne.org/1623-lists-of-living--dead.html February 1623/4 Living and the Dead list].

Meyer & John Frederick Dorman, ''Adventurers of Purse and Person: Virginia 1706-1624/5'' (Order of First Families of Virginia, 1607-1624/5; 3rd edition 1987), p.494 "Price" So, if John and Mary had two sons and a daughter, it would seem that Matthew and John are those sons. Perhaps the 3-month-old Mary B.L. Price names is the daughter of Mary instead of John's second wife Ann. '''1988 Genealogy''': Information from Vina Chandler Price's 1988 ''Ancestors and Descendants of John Price: Immigrant to Virginia 1610-11'' - : John and his wife Mary had "two sons and a daughter."

''Internet Archive'''s "Open Library" does not have a copy, but does offer the following: : Edition Description: "An exhaustive work of patience and accuracy by a certified genealogist of the known descendants of the first person into America with the surname Price - John Price of Breckonshire aboard the ship, "Starr". Precise tracking and identifiers are used throughout with a scholarly detachment about the veracity of some existing conclusions made by others. She goes not one inch further than the verifiable facts allow."https://openlibrary.org/works/OL4659308W/Ancestors_and_Descendants_of_John_Price : First Sentence: "Seventy-eight years ago Benjamin Luther Price published his work, "John Price The Emigrant".

Price's 1988 work. == Researcher’s Notes == Double entry dates, like 1623/4 are due to Old Style Calendar: Before 1752 the year began on Lady Day, March 25th. Dates between January 1st and March 24th were at the end of the year. Old Style (O.S.) and New Style (N.S.) are used to indicate whether the year has been adjusted. Often both dates are used. (entered by Jan Gorman, June 7, 2017) Note: If Matthew was of age in 1638, and Ann was 21 in 1624, he's unlikely to be Ann's son.

== Introduction == This content was copied from the profile of [[Gillespie-641|James Gillespie (abt.1707-bef.1769)]] on 7 January 2024. Subsequent research conducted after this content was added to his profile showed that two James Gillespie families in Virginia were being conflated (Beverley Manor vs Cowpasture River). Additionally, no reliable sources have been found connecting this James Gillespie with specific persons in Ireland, his stated origin, or Scotland, the other purported origin. This content is being preserved as it may contain valuable leads for this James Gillespie or for other Gillespie families. However, the content needs further research, reliable sourcing, and review. [[Spratlin-29|Spratlin-29]] 16:36, 7 January 2024 (UTC) == Research Notes == === Purported Origins === James is purported to have the following origins: * Falkirk Parish, Scotland (see below) * James is assumed (no source) by some to have been born about 1700 in Ulster, Ireland.{{citation needed}} ==== Falkirk Parish, Scotland ==== ===== [Needs Review] Unproven Origins ===== [This subheading purports origins that are not properly supported by reliable sources connecting the person in Europe with the person in Virginia. [[Spratlin-29|Spratlin-29]] 18:44, 28 September 2023 (UTC)] {{Scottish Ancestor Sticker}} James Gillespie was born into a long line of Gillespies from Falkirk Parish, Scotland, whose recorded history we have traced at the least to the beginnings of the 18th Century when the Parish first recorded Christenings. [[Wikipedia:Falkirk Old Parish Church]]. He was born on 2 November 1701, in Falkirk Parish to [[Gillespie-5592|William Gillespie]] and [[Killan-8|Mary Killan]]."Church of Scotland: Old Parish Registers - Births and Baptisms," database, National Records of Scotland, ([https://www.scotlandspeople.gov.uk/ ScotlandsPeople] : accessed 22 September 2023), James Gillespie born or baptised on 2 Nov 1701, son of William Gillespie & Mary Killan, in Falkirk, Stirlingshire, Scotland; citing Parish Number 479, Ref 30/123, Frame 783. He was strongly dedicated to family. What's interesting is the nature of his ties to the children he sired. All evidence shows he was having an affair when he was young and first married out of which came Agnes, his first child born in Kincardinshire, out of the way of Falkirk. Agnes became a part of his family as he included her in the family he sponsored to the colonies in 1740. His first wife bore their boy, John in Edinburgh, but after she ostensibly died, there were two children in his household, his son a baby when he married Jennett. Jennett ultimately gave birth to 4 of his children, William being 12, and James being 4 by the time they moved from Scotland, one who died in infancy in the colonies, and the last born and raised in Virginia. This is also seen in his Will where he bequeaths some property to his wife's brother, John who apparently moved to Ireland where he raised a family. He calls him his "brother." One can guess the character of James Gillespies who was a supreme support for both his kith and kin [https://www.oxfordreference.com/view/10.1093/oi/authority.20110803100039323] through providing sound judgment especially regarding how to take advantage of his opportunities when territory opened in Cowpasture, Augusta County. Certainly more research is needed to make any definitive statements, but the Gillespies had enough money to pay their own way to Pennsylvania, and then independently settle on land west of the Alleghenies in 1740, 7 years after it was opened. In fact, James was instrumental in developing, cultivating and moving produce to the closest city, York 330 miles North of Cowpasture. So it seems obvious they had also been farmers in Falkirk. [[Wikipedia:Scottish Agricultural Revolution]]. Ultimately he would give his 1,000 acres of land or more precisely 3 full plantations to his sons outright upon his death in 1768. As tobacco didn't grow well there, they most probably grew and traded Hemp whose fibers were used for a number of useful purposes for the colonists. [[Wikipedia:Hemp]].

There are some indications that the Gillespies owned land in Falkirk. * The family traces back to the beginnings of Parish records in the early 17th Century. We find father to son for over a century by the time James left for the colonies. If the family were tenants, one expects to see more movement from one place to another. * They were farmers. The Gillespies successfully managed 3 separate plantations that were eventually left to the sons in Virginia. * James clearly had the funding to not only get passage for his family of 5 to the colonies, but show reason to acquire hundreds of acres in the developing Augusta County. * From the ''The History of Stirlingshire Chapter XXXVII – Landowners'', "There are several extensive estates in the county, but property is very much divided. Farms in the lower districts vary from 20 to 300 acres. In the hilly and mountainous districts, however, they are considerably larger... In St. Ninians parish, which has the highest valuation of the county, there are 140 farms... In this Chapter we see the following "Gillespies" on record for St. Ninians: :Mrs. Elizabeth Honyman Gillespie of Torbanehill, 283 pounds :In Airth parish there are 34 farms – Bellsdyke farm (Robert William Gillespie Stainton, Esq.) is valued at 396 pounds, and the minerals at 125 pounds[https://electricscotland.com/history/stirlingshire/chap37.htm Landowners in Stirlingshire on Electric Scotland]. Bellsdyke is tempting as James' wife Jennett is from Denny, a factory town using minerals. :But probably most compelling though "Gillespie" isn't prominent are still the farms of Falkirk: :"There are 107 farms in the parish of Falkirk – farms of Redbrae, Lippy, and Glenrig (Mrs. Eliza G.W.

James is not listed in the General Index, so not obvious why listed in the Miscellaneous Data section. Presumably the same as this James based on the death date of 1769. Lists "bro. to John," presumablly from his Will. Does not list Jennet, his wife, listed here in his importation oath and his Will. * Archibald Glendenning mentions William Gillespie and _____ Gillespie in his will which was probably James' grandchildren through his son William. There is a possibility there were two Gillespie families in Bath County Virginia at that time. More research may reveal they were in different territories: William in Cowpasture and ____ in Bullpasture. This will probably come out in the near future. '''In Ireland and Scotland''': * Another Interesting thing is that though the church (Scotland) recorded marriages and birth, there's less information on funerals. What did they do with the dead? ::The same lack of funeral records can be observed (see rootsireland.ie) in Donegal County, Ireland, as late as 1850.

It is extremely difficult figuring out which line is which before acquiring the proper records -- especially when we add names common to both. As tempting as it is to think that there's one lineage that comes from one name, this has not been what we see from names. Generally names were applied to people often to reflect a royal, or even geographical setting on your home base. They were used in Medieval Times to identify families in tax and property roles. ::The name, Gillespie then was probably applied to this family designating a Servant to a Bishop, which would be true for both Ireland and Scotland. The most convincing evidence that James Gillespie comes from Scotland, though, is because the Descendant with the most Percentage of DNA from the 18th Century is [[Ferguson-17515|Stephen Ferguson]], the only DNA Connection of our profile at 1.56%. Ferguson is important because '''Ferguson''' are the Chiefs of a Scottish Clan in Ayrshire, (Highlanders on Scotland's SW coast) who originally came from Aberdeen in the NE shores. ''Scots Kith & Kin'', p59. This is further supported by the '''Cunninghams''' who married [[Gillespie-565|Elizabeth (Gillespie) Cunningham]] a grand daughter through [[Gillespie-6703|William]]. The '''Cunninghams''' were also a powerful sept from Ayrshire from Clan Bruce''Scots Kith & Kin'', p54.. One of the reasons I [[Moyer-780|Moyer=780]] knew Nancy belonged to this family was that when I first came here in 2013, [[Glendinning-394|Mary Glendinning]] had given birth to Elizabeth within months of [[Gillespie-559|Nancy (Gillespie) Owens]] in Pennsylvania. They have since changed her birthday...but that's understandable. ::James Ancestral Family came from Lennox [[Wikipedia:The Lennox]]. and were a sept of the '''MacPherson Clan'''. ''Scots Kith & Kin'', p78. * The colonial frontier that was mainly settled from about 1717 to 1775 were mostly Presbyterian settlers from North England border lands, Scotland, and Ulster, fleeing hard times and religious persecution. The fourth major center of settlement was the Western frontier, located in the Western parts of Pennsylvania and in the South, which was settled during the early to late 18th century by mostly Scots-Irish, with others mostly from North England border lands. ... Historically, northern English, Scottish and Scotch-Irish Protestants settled in the interior of the South, and the Appalachian region. [[Wikipedia:History of immigration to the United States]]. * By 1740 The Frontier ''Scots-Irish'' were people of Scottish background and ancestry who were sent to the northern part of Ireland in 1610 in order to promote British influence in Ireland. A century later they left Ireland to seek their fortunes in America. Many of these entered through the port of Philadelphia and then moved south to take up land in the Valley of Virginia. They settled in the counties of Augusta, Botetourt, Bath, Highland, Rockbridge, Alleghany and the lands to the Southwest. The towns of Winchester, Staunton, Lexington, Fincastle, and Abington were largely Scotch-Irish. So far, it seems his father and his family lived in Falkirk, so I have nothing yet to say these were Scots-Irish per se, but may have been closely aligned with them. [http://www.ulsterscotssociety.com/about.html] So, the Scots-Irish were in Ireland for over a 100 years before emigrating to the Colonies. Calling James Gillespie Scots-Irish is misleading and dilutes his heritage as a Scotsman who was defending Scottish interests until they left their home in 1740, over 130 years after Scottish people began settling in Ulster. There is 130 miles between Ayrshire and Ulster, perhaps 40 miles of water between them. ::Clearly, the Scottish Gillespies were strongly tied to Borderland Scots.

If he was born around 1615, Ellyson would be about the age of twenty-seven (27) in 1642/3. His occupational title as a barber-surgeon implies that he may have been affiliated with the Company of Barbers and Surgeons. :Wikipedia states that, "the Fellowship of Surgeons merged with the Barbers' Company in 1540 by Act of Parliament to form the Company of Barbers and Surgeons. The Act specified that {{blue|no surgeon could cut hair or shave another and ... no barber could practice surgery}}; {{gray|the only common activity was to be the extraction of teeth.

According to Wagner (1964), Ellyson was indeed a physician, who mainly treated people through blood-letting and "medicinal remedies.Wagner, 1964, p. 43 So IF Ellyson was a 'free' surgeon, it's possible that he was in London at some point because, "After the licensing of dissection in 1540, public demonstrations took place four times a year in the Great Hall of Barber-Surgeons' Hall ...

[[Category:Virginia, Smith Name Study]] [[Category: US Southern Colonies Family Studies]] See also [[Space:Smiths of Lancashire|Smiths of Lancashire]]. These pages were created to aid in research of the evidence concerning [[Smith-1217|Lawrence Smith]]: the Lawrence baptized in Lancashire in 1629 is believed to be the same Lawrence who first appears in Colonial Virginia records in the list of headrights redeemed by [[Warner-97|Augustine Warner]] in 1652. The mother of Lawrence (baptized 1629) is believed to be [[Townley-2|Elizabeth Towneley]], sister-in-law of [[Warner-97|Augustine Warner]] (who married [[Towneley-1|Mary Towneley]]). == Virginia == === Smiths in Tyler's Virginia Biography === : Looking at Smith entries in Tyler's ''Encyclopedia of Virginia Biography'' shows areas for research.Lyon Gardiner Tyler.

(It should be noted that in the years following the publication of Tyler's research, many corrections have been made by subsequent researchers, which are not reflected in the quoted passages below.) :: Three generations of Arthur Smiths, the first arriving in Virginia in 1622 * 'Smith, Arthur, gentleman, was born in 1797 [sic - prob. 1597] and came to Virginia in 1622 in the company of Farrar Flinton; burgess for Isle of Wight county in 1644-1645. By his will dated October 1, 1645, he left sons Thomas, Arthur, Richard and George Smith.'Tyler, [http://vagenweb.org/tylers_bios/vol1-31.htm pages 319-328]. [[Smith-145277]][[Smith-145277]] is attached as father of Arthur born 1638. Other Arthur profiles that were close: [[Smith-39774]] has b 1597, d 1645 but no support in text. [[Smith-39759]] mentions in the text a son Thomas (of either the profile's Arthur or another) who died is Surry, Virginia, but the profile needs a lot of work. All three profiles accessed 2 January 2020. * 'Smith, Colonel Arthur, son of Arthur Smith (q. v.), was born in 1638, resided on Pagan Creek, Isle of Wight county, was justice in 1675 and 1680; colonel of the militia the latter year; and burgess in 1685. His will dated December 2, 1696, was proved in Isle of Wight county June 10, 1697.' [[Smith-156119]] * 'Smith, Arthur, son of Colonel Arthur Smith, of Isle of Wight county, who died in 1696-1697, was born in 1670; was burgess for isle of Wight county in 1703-1705, 1710-1712, 1715, 1718, 1720-1722. He had a son Arthur who was the founder of Smithfield, Virginia.' [[Smith-156120]] :: Lawrence Smiths * 'Smith, Lawrence, was a resident of Gloucester county, Virginia, and in March, 1675-1676, he commanded a fort at the head of Rappahannock river. In Bacon's rebellion he sided with Governor Berkeley, and after Bacon's death led the Gloucester "trained hands" against Ingram, but they deserted him. He was surveyor for the counties of Gloucester and York in 1686, and in 1691 laid out Yorktown. In 1699 the governor recommended him as suitable for appointment to the council. He died in 1700. From his coat-of-arms Major Smith appears to have belonged to the Smiths of Totne, county Devon, England. he was father of Colonel John Smith, of the Virginia council.' [Smith-1217] ** Richardson says that the Lawrence Smith who married Elizabeth Towneley is the "likely immigrant to Virginia".Douglas Richardson. ''Magna Carta Ancestry: A Study in Colonial and Medieval Families,'' 4 vols, ed. Kimball G. Everingham, 2nd edition (Salt Lake City: the author, 2011), volume IV, page 207 TOWNELEY 15.ii.a. If so, this is who most descendants believe him to be. * 'Smith, Lawrence, son of Major Lawrence Smith, of Gloucester county, settled in York county, where he was lieutenant-colonel of the militia, justice of the peace, sheriff, and one of the feoffees of Yorktown. In 1620 and several succeeding years her represented York county in the house of burgesses. He married (first) Mildred, daughter of Captain Thomas Chisman, and (second) Mildred, daughter of Robert Reade. He died in1639, at his house near Yorktown.' [[Smith-12044]] ** If Lawrence, son of Major Lawrence Smith, died in 1639, his father is not the Lawrence Smith who was baptized in Burnley, Lancashire, England in 1629. However, this is probably a typo for 1739, which is the date often given for the death of [[Smith-12044|Lawrence Smith]] (believed to be son of Lawrence bap. 1629). * 'Smith, Lawrence, son of Colonel John Smith, Esq., of Gloucester county, was born about 1700, and represented Gloucester county in the house of burgesses in 1734-1740. He died the latter year (1740).'If "Colonel John Smith, Esq., of Gloucester county" is meant to be the son of this Lawrence (Smith-1217), he does not appear to have a profile - as of 2 January 2020 - and the closest profile found for a Lawrence born c1700 is [[Smith-39636]]. :: John Smiths/Smyth * 'Smith, John, came to Virginia about 1652, married Anna Bernard, daughter of Richard Bernard, of "Purton," in Gloucester county. He was major in 1665, lieutenant-colonel before 1674, and sided with Sir William Berkeley in 1767 against Bacon. His son, John Smith, of Purton, married Mary Warner, daughter of Colonel Augustine Warner.' [[Smith-521]] * 'Smith, Major John, came to Virginia about 1650, and resided first in Warwick county; was speaker of the house of burgesses in 1658; removed to Westmoreland county, where he was known as Major Francis Dade, He died in 1662. Ancestor of the Dade family of Virginia.' [[Dade-7]] * 'Smith, John, son of Augustine Smith, of "Shooter's Hill," Middlesex county and Sarah Carver, his wife, was born November 13, 1715. He was burgess for Middlesex in the assemblies of 1761-1765, October, 1765, 1766-1768. He was a wealthy planter, married Mary Jaquelin, daughter of Edward Jaquelin, of Jamestown, and died near Winchester, November 19, 1771. He was father of General John Smith, to "Hackwood," Frederick county.' [[Smith-17665]] * 'Smith, John, burgess for Goochland county in 1756-1758. He was son of Guy Smith, of Gloucester county, was born September 23, 1725, and married in 1751, Elizabeth Hopkins, daughter of Arthur Hopkins, of Goochland.'

It lay next to Pace's Paines. Smyth was a burgess for Pace's Paines in 1629, for Pace's Paynes and Smyth's Mount in 1630.'As of 3 January 2020, it does not appear that this John Smyth has a WikiTree profile. :: Other Smiths * 'Smith, Joseph, came from Ireland to Virginia about 1710, was justice of the peace of Essex and colonel of the Essex militia. He died 1727. He was a wealthy merchant and mentions in his will his brothers John Smith, late of Biddeford, merchant, Benjamin Smith, of the kingdom of Ireland, and James Smith of Rosse in Ireland.'No WikiTree profile identified as of 2 January 2020 for a Joseph Smith from Ireland, died Virginia 1727. (The profile for [[Smith-42099]], died February 1727, appears to have been in Rhode Island.) * 'Smith, Rev. Charles Jeffrey, A. M., was a Presbyterian minister of Long Island, New York. He formed a partnership with another Presbyterian, William Holt, of Virginia, and in 1765 held 500 acres in James City county, and a mill called "Kennon's Mill." He founded a settlement in New Kent county which he called "Providence" (now Providence Forge), and built thereon iron, grist and saw mills. He died in 1771. After his death the forge at New Kent was conducted by Francis Jerdone and William Holt.' ([[Smith-156852]]) * 'Smith, Francis, son of Captain Nicholas Smith, Jr., was vestryman and justice of Essex county, 1740; major of horse, 1753, and afterwards colonel; member of the house of burgesses for Essex, 1752-1758. His will dated March, 1760, and proved March 15, 1762, disposes of a large estate; father of Meriwether smith, prominent in the American revolution.' [[Smith-44771]] * 'Smith, Rev.

He died about 1720, leaving issue at least four sons, John, Guy, Constantine and Lawrence.' [[Smith-21589]] '''''Note''': No support for Lawrence [[Smith-1217]] as father, aside from unsourced {{FindAGrave|104613412|sameas=no}} for Guy Smith.'' * 'Smith, Rev. Thomas, son of Gregory Smith of King and Queen county, Virginia, was born in 1741, attended the school at Wakefield in Yorkshire, England, and took his A. B. degree at Trinity College, Cambridge, England, in 1763. He was ordained by Bishop Porteus in 1765. On his return to America he became rector of Yocomoco and Nomini Churches in Westmoreland county, Virginia, and died May 20, 1789. His son John Augustine Smith became president of William and Mary College.' * 'Smith, Toby, was a burgess for Warwick River county in March, 1643; for Nansemond October, 1649. He removed to Lancaster county where he was justice in 1652 and 1653. When Rappahannock county was former, he was appointed December 11, 1656, one of the justices, and colonel of the militia. He married Phebe Fauntleroy, sister of Moore Fauntleroy. His will dated December 29, 1677, was recorded in Rappahannock county. He left a son Henry and other children.' :: Three (unrelated?) Nicholas Smiths * 'Smith, Nicholas, son of Nicholas Smith, and Efsobah, his wife, of the city of London, was born at London, September 4, 1666; a justice and coroner of Richmond county, one of the first justices of the new county of King George, member of the house of burgesses 1723, 1726, 1732-1734; lieutenant colonel of the King George militia; he died possessed of a very large estate, March 18, 1734, and is buried at his manor plantation "Smith's Mount" in Westmoreland county. His daughter and heiress Elizabeth married Major Harry Turner.' [[Smith-84289]] ''based on birth date'' * 'Smith, Nicholas, of Petsworth parish, Gloucester county, Virginia, was a vestryman October 13, 1697, churchwarden in 1700. He left a son Captain Nicholas Smith, who was father of Colonel Frances Smith of South Farnham parish, Essex county, (q. v.).' [[Smith-84289]] ''based on son [[Smith-84293|Nicholas]], grandson [[Smith-44771|Frances]]'' * 'Smith, Nicholas, was a justice and member of the house of burgesses for Isle of Wight county in 1659-1660. His will, dated November 19, 1695, and recorded there, shows that the two daughters of Thomas Powell in Maryland were his only descendants.' [[Smith-143875]] :: Sir Thomas (not related to Christopher's father Thomas) * 'Smith or Smythe, Sir Thomas, a great merchant and first treasurer of the Virginia Company of London, born about 1558, son of Sir Thomas Smythe, of Ostenhanger in Kent, a merchant of large wealth,.... He married three times, his third wife being Sarah, daughter of William Blount, Esq., by whom he had two sons — Thomas and John Smythe. The line of the former ended with the accomplished geographer the Eighth Viscount Strangford, who died in 1869, and the line of the latter expired with Sir Sidney Stafford Smythe, chief baron of the exchequer in 1772. The family always wrote the name Smythe, though it is generally rendered Smith.' Sir Thomas died in 1625.Excerpted from Tyler's biography of him.

[[Category: US Southern Colonies Family Studies]] This space will be used to collect and store research materials gathered during the 2018 William Scott Research Project for the family of William Scott of Bedford county, Virginia. The primary source for this particular [[Scott-210 | William Scott]] is his Will, written in 1793 and probated in 1794 in Bedford county, Virginia. This Will contains the names of William's surviving family members, including his widow and twelve children.

Accumulating as much past research as we can find, then processing it and adding as much more evidence as we can find, will produce source-supported profiles unmatched anywhere on the planet, whether real or virtual. We want to reach a high level of genealogical proof standard. We want to produce finished profiles suitable for use by beginner, intermediate and advanced researchers that will enhance their collections. By having a research team and having a much wider scope than previous projects, we will be able to include a broader perspective in our analysis and a more reliable basis for our conclusions, which also contributes to the genealogical proof standard. Our project can be broken down into the following phases. == Phase One == William Scott (~1720-1794) of Bedford county, Virginia is one of those profiles which has attracted an unusually large amount, as well as a wide variety, of conflicting information. We needed to start with some basic genealogy principles in order to avoid being initially overwhelmed with the volume and confused by the variations. Genealogy 101 starts with what is known. It matters little just what is known or where it came from, it matters more that it is recorded. Even if we have already collected all the tree and family history information we can find, it is obvious that all we really knew in the beginning was the information found in his 1793/1794 Will from Bedford, VA. The collected information was shown on the relevant profiles of the family members listed in the 1793 Will. All 14 profiles for this family have completed this phase.
== Phase Two == The second basic step is the personal interview of the oldest living descendants. In our research group of descendants, we would probably nominate Donald Scott who undoubtedly has the most years of experience researching William Scott. Interviews of all of the participants in this project would be difficult geographically because we are spread across several states, but a lot could be gleaned from the emails we have shared over the eighteen months we have been working on this project, so far. A selection of emails have been quoted and attributed on relevant profiles. All 14 profiles for this family have completed this phase.
== Phase Three == The next step in the process is to analyze the collected information. Analysis involves several simultaneous functions and multiple skills to accomplish. It is necessary to see the overall picture while also looking at details, which requires good familiarity with all the collected information as well as all the points addressed in the interviews. During this phase the WT profiles were organized, condensed and improved. Some of the 14 profiles for this family have completed this phase.
== Phase Four == The analysis reveals unanswered questions, so the next step is to “do genealogy” and look for answers to those questions. This process is normally “hit and miss” but eventually produces a pattern which improves production of records until eventually no more records can be found. Reaching this point is called “reasonably exhaustive research,” and is pursued for each unanswered question as well as each record type. Another round of profile improvements were done during this phase that included analysis and improvements of source citations. A few of the 14 profiles for this family have completed this phase.
== Phase Five == The final step is to write a report of the process; evidence, analysis, and conclusions. This will be done per individual in this family, with some overlap, for instance all family members will have a transcription, analysis and original image of the 1793 Will of William, Sr. included in their profile here on WikiTree.com. The Research Section of each profile will be condensed and moved to the bottom, while all other sections will be reviewed and improved as much as possible. None of the 14 profiles for this family are ready for this phase to be started.
== Other Components == Each find has a synergistic effect on both the next search item and the previously discovered items. During this process new connections are made between previous and new information and secondary insights are discovered as a result. One component of the research phase is tracking what types of records have been searched, the locations where searches have been done, as well as recording the records which have been found. This search log needs to be available to all members of the team for review and WikiTree is being used for that purpose, as well as a circulating spreadsheet file.
The most important element of a group research project is communication. Sharing finds is certainly important, as well as on-going analysis and questions, but probably the most important is appreciation. Research requires many long monotonous solitary hours. The rewards of successful searches, the pleasures of sharing finds, and the camaraderie of working together are compounded by receiving a “Thank you.” Appreciation will make the difference between a team member thinking their work is taken for granted or ignored, and having them believe that their work is important and valued.
Another element of the research phase is characterized by the instructions for using shampoo, “Lather, rinse, repeat.” There is a frequent need to back up the first questions, “What do we know?” and “What are the unanswered questions?” and to be able to get a new grip on what is being searched for and where and why.
Probably the most critical element of this group research project on William Scott is keeping track of the multiple William Scott’s who are not OUR William Scott. All along Donald has warned us that each of the records we find may not be relevant to our William Scott, initially we had no way to tell other than Donald reviewing his notes and giving us a judgement. Gradually the rest of us gained familiarity and became able to concur with Don. At some point, hopefully, naturally or almost automatically, the rest of us will arrive at a realization that the sum of the records we have collected begins to show clues, or a pattern of clues, which needs to be articulated or described, in order to have a way to determine relevance. Part of this relevance definition has to do with the hierarchy of source reliability. A basic understanding of Primary sources, those produced at the time of an event, and secondary sources, those produced after an event, can be expanded to include subdivision of each, but application becomes subjective. Another part of the relevance definition has to do with the interactions between records and how the similarities offer reinforcements. While it is easy to recognize these repeated similarities, they should not be used to summarily dismiss the disparate details. The information that does not agree with the majority of the rest of the evidence, needs to demand more time and attention in order to be sure of why it doesn't agree. Whether it is determining the origin in time or reference or some other criteria, it is useful in determine whether to accept, reject or set aside for later judgement.
Each researcher, no matter the field of endeavor, hopes for the watershed event, or in our case the breakthrough record, which clarifies the whole process. Two centuries after William Scott’s lifetime makes it fairly unlikely that one of those kinds of records will appear during our project. We are more likely to have a few little brief flashes here and there, not that we will stop hoping for the big one.
Winding down our project is still in the future and it is uncertain when that eventuality will become apparent or necessary. Common sense should be enough to help us figure it out. == Supplemental and Concurrent Phases == Before completing Phase Five, we concluded that our project would not be complete without expanding the scope of the project in two ways. The first one was apparent from several other Scott historians who claimed that William came to Bedford county, Virginia from either Charles or Prince Georges county in Maryland. The second was including allied families in Bedford county, Virginia, as well as Prince Georges and Charles counties, Maryland. James and Charles Scott were mentioned in court records of their father-in-law Basil Talbot, so it must be reasonably assumed that other brothers would be mentioned in the family histories of their wives' families. This double expansion of the scope of our project could be overwhelming, but all we can do is work through it a step at a time, just like we have done so far. == Research Management == The basic outline for our "reasonably exhaustive research" is the "REDBOOK" 3rd Edition, edited by Alice Eicholz, Ancestry Publishing, Provo, Utah.

There are indications that William Scott lived in Maryland before he moved to Bedford county, Virginia about 1751. Our project has been expanded to include Maryland records as outlined in the Maryland Chapter of the REDBOOK. == Research Categories == The information and records will be categorized according to the outline of the "REDBOOK" as follows. === VITAL RECORDS === First laws of Virginia, "Lawes Divine, Morall and Martial," were enacted by Sir Thomas Dale in 1610, which required colonial ministers to record all christenings, marriages and burials in registers, similar to those in England. Few, if any, of the monthly lists were recorded. The House of Burgesses strengthened the vital records laws in 1660. If county clerks ever actually made any of these records, they were lost. Existing marriage laws were superseded in 1853. The majority of surviving pre-1853 marriage records have been published.
*No birth, marriage or death records were found for William Scott, or Lucy, his wife, in Bedford county, Virginia. Other counties, such as James City, VA, have not been searched. Neither have counties, including Prince Georges and Charles, in Maryland, been searched. *Virginia General Reference Material available at the Virginia Library." Book Number

Middle Lick Run of Catawba." === TAX RECORDS === During the Colonial period, there were three basic forms of taxation: the quitrent (land tax), the parish (church tithables) levy and the poll (head) tax. The poll tax was the main source of revenue for the colony. While there is no comprehensive list or collection of early tax lists, many fragments have been published. The tax system changed after the Revolutionary War to include taxing land and personal property in 1782 and 1787. Most of those tax lists prior to 1850 survive.
Include Maryland Colonial tax records in this section. *William Scott, Sr. and William Scott, Jr. are found in "Personal Property Tax List of 1787" found in "Laws of Virginia", Bedford County Personal Property Tax List "B""Laws of Virginia," [https://www.familysearch.org/photos/artifacts/56211686], Page 254. === CEMETERY RECORDS === Several collections of gravestone inscriptions can be found in publications and on websites for both Virginia and Maryland. Even if burial records cannot be found for William's first wife in Maryland, finding records for allied families and their descendants may give some clues about the Scotts. *No burial found for William Scott d:~1794, on Find-a-Grave, nor on DAR. Other burial indexes have not been searched. === CHURCH RECORDS === Colonial Virginia was dominated by the Church of England (Anglican or Episcopal) has very few church records. In order to accurately and efficiently check records for a particular parish, several publications outline the various parish histories and boundary changes. It has not been determined to which parish William Scott may have belonged. Some indications are the parish included Bedford and Amherst counties.
Colonial Maryland needs a review of parishes in Prince Georges and Charles counties, which were predominantly Catholic. === MILITARY RECORDS === Most surviving service records of the colonial militia of Virginia (1622-1763) and Maryland, consisting mainly of rosters, rolls and lists, provide more historical than genealogical information, and usually only provide a name and unit, most of which have been published. There is no comprehensive list of Virginia servicemen of the Revolutionary War (1775-1783). Some records were destroyed, but those which remain are held by the National Archives and are not on microfilm. The main categories of military records are service and payroll, bounty land and pension. Many publications contain lists and abstracts. Several organizations have searchable online database collections. Collections are generally organized by the historical conflict periods, Colonial, Revolutionary, War of 1812, Civil War, WWI, etc. *Daughters of the American Revolution, DAR.org no match to birth year/Scotland......(Other searches could be made using other parameters) *Daughters of the American Revolution, dar.org does have this:

*Vicki just found a record on Ancestry for Wm Scott immigrating in 1732, landing in MD. Curious that this has never “popped up” as a hint. This could connect to the Wm Scott found in MD census and who married in 1747 to “Lucrese Hornton/Hompton” . Of course, still don’t know if this is our Wm Scott…. https://search.ancestry.com/cgi-bin/sse.dll?indiv=1&dbid=7486&h=1344398&ssrc=pt&tid=118059600&pid=160183434981&usePUB=true *Name: William Scott, Age: 15, Birth Year: abt 1717, Arrival Year: 1732, Arrival Place: Maryland, Primary Immigrant: Scott, William

=== County Resources === Most pre-1900 county records have been microfilmed and can be searched at the Library of Virginia and the Family History Library. Independent cities should be treated the same as counties in a research plan. Bedford county was formed from Lunenberg in 1754. Birth records began in 1853, marriage records in 1755 and death records in 1853. Land, Probate and Court records began in 1745.
Find out the status of similar county records in Maryland. "The County Courthouses and Records of Maryland" Parts 1 (Publication 12 of 13, 1960, the courthouses) & 2 (Publication 13 of 13, 1963, the records) Hall of Records Commission Maryland, Radoff, Skordas & Jaconsen. 1790 the state was divided into five judicial districts. First district included St. Mary's, Calvert, Prince Georges and Charles counties. This book was reviewed at the Denver Public Library on Sunday 12 jan 2020 by SEL.
Prince Georges county is unique among southern MD counties because it has preserved an almost complete series of records. No fires, no war destruction. Courthouse built about 1697. Most records categories do not go back to our time window of 1740-1755, plus or minus ten years. Land records and indexes 1696, court 1699, levy books 1734, Wills 1698 (which are not applicable to William Scott), all other record types 1777 or later. Charles county had its first records loss in 1764 and another in 1892, plus two other minor losses. Land 1658, orphans 1716, wills 1665, most other records 1825 or later. This is at least an initial inventory of records which would be of interest. Another book was found, but not reviewed, at DPL. "An Inventory of Maryland State Papers" Vol. 1 1775-1789. The index showed the names Scott, Talbot, Dent and Wright. == Research Process == This is where we "show our work" that will help others follow our reasoning and the choices behind our conclusions. In the past, most of this was kept in files of notes and was only occasionally shared, if at all. This also represents the bulk of the time investment of genealogy, which if shared, not only saves others this time, but it keeps us accountable. It also allows fresh eyes access to review and possibly find clues we missed. In a collaborative setting, this will add immeasurable value to the ongoing process. === Discussion Items === * Donald Scott: One thing I uncovered again was the span of the birth dates of William and Lucy's children-more than 30 years. This is outside the women's usual fertility period . If we assume that Lucy was born in 1722 and the first born was Thomas about 1740-1742, it is unlikely that she was also the mother of Peter, Sara and perhaps even Obediah. 15Oct2018. * Steve Lake: Or looking at it the other way around, if Lucy is listed in William's 1793 Will as his widow, then she was his second wife and would at least be the mother of the younger children, say Obediah (b:1764), Peter and Evan, and possibly Charles, Axton and Joseph (b:1757). Another point in favor of Lucy being William's second wife is the residence places of his sons. The sons listed first in his Will, were probably the older ones; James, George, John, Thomas and William, Jr. lived in Campbell county, Kentucky. The subsequent sons listed in the Will, or probably the younger ones; Charles, Joseph, Obediah and Peter lived in Washington county, Virginia. Obediah was one exception and lived in both those places before he moved to Missouri. Another exception is Axton, who remained in Bedford. The other exception was Evan, who can only be found in records of Madison county, Kentucky. I have seen examples of this natural segregation of sons of different mothers in other families. Unfortunately this possible split, if it was caused by William, Sr. marrying a second time, may have happened about 1750-1752 (between William, Jr. & Charles), which was before Bedford county was organized and therefore no record would be found there. It would be worth following this rabbit hole in the predecessor county, Lunenberg, before 1754. 22Oct2018. * Donald Scott: I just blundered into something which could be helpful to those of you who are most interested in fleshing out the descendants of William and Lucretia, as well as the offspring of each down through the years. I am a long time member of Ancestry and have access to the huge numbers of people having DNA matches to me. Many of them have complete trees and others have only a very efficient chart which shows the offspring and where they lived. We should recognize that the DNA is only as good as the input data--not perfect-but I find it quite useful. Any of you who are ancestry members should have access to this info. 18Oct2018. === Alternate Scott Lines === The Scott name is quite common, the pool of given names seems to be quite small, and the potential for confusion is quite high, therefore it is important to maintain a wider view of as many Scott's as possible in all of the counties of Virginia and Maryland. *[[Scott-14565 | Donald Scott's]] current list of the William Scott's
#William (Sr. or I) of Bedford who died in 1794 in Bedford County, Virginia, husband of Lucy. #William, my ancestor, son of Axton and grandson of the William who died in 1794. #William (Jr. or II) son of the William who died in 1794. #William of Chesterfield County, Virginia. There may have been others, so please add to this list. *[[Scott-14565 | Donald Scott]] uncovered a court case several years ago and he has paper copies of the case. In this case a William Scott had been jailed as a part of a case in which Walter Scott and his son James of Chesterfield county Virginia sued William over a very large property in Chesterfield county. We can conclude from all this that there was more than one William Scott who was involved in the many court actions in Bedford County at least in the early 1790's. Secondly, these actions caused me to be aware of the Walter Scott family of Chesterfield family and also caused me to believe there may be a family connection between the Scott's of Chesterfield and Scott's of Bedford. Walter Scott of Chesterfield had a couple of sisters and a brother named WILLIAM (possibly our William, Sr. in Bedford). Walter was roughly the same age as our William of Bedford. I suspect that this [William or Walter?] of Chesterfield never married because he was generous in giving to Scott's of Bedford. William of Chesterfield acquired property in Bedford around the late 1780's or 90's. So, the issues-Were the Scott's of Bedford blood relatives of the Scotts of Chesterfield??-2nd issue How to explain apparent family/love/hate relations between Bedford Scott's and Chesterfield Scotts. 3rd-How to identify the several William Scott's apparently living in Bedford County in the early 1790's. Here is an example of a Scott line that does NOT appear to be related to William Scott, but is only a few counties away. "John Scott of Spotsylvania County/Orange County VA and Thomas Scott of Caroline [county]" By Lyn Epstein August 24, 2009 (https://www.genealogy.com/forum/surnames/topics/scott/17446/ : accessed on 11Jun2018 by SEL) From G2G here on WT, answered Jun 6 by Susan Scott Brouillard: Another SCOTT line, possibly unrelated, is the clan in Dinwiddie county, VA, among whom the Civil War General, Winfield Scott was probably the best known.
Throughout my years of research, I keep coming up with these same ancestors as you mentioned--with the same confusions. So here are the confusing WILLIAMS I have:
1)William Scott b. 1790 GA, d. 1854 Cecil, MD, son of Thomas Sr. b. 1756 Cecil Co., MD d. 1797 NC and this line goes back to Walter Beardie Scott.
2)William Scott b. in 1690/1695/or 1720 Pr. Geo MD or Highlands, Scotland and m. Lucretia Lucy James and d. 1752 in Pr. Geo MD or d. 1794 Bedford Co., VA and is son of either Beardie or son of William of Pr. Geo, MD and goes back through two more Johns to get to Walter Watty Wudspurs instead of Beardie.
3)William Scott b. 1732 Denny, Stirlingshire, Scot or Pr. Geo MD, d. 1794 Goose Creek, Bedford Co., VA, m. Lucretia Lucy James . son of Walter Scott who was son of Beardie.
And to throw in even more confusion, there is also a William Scott, MD b. 1701 in New Kent, VA d. 1742 Stafford, VA and son of either Walter who is son of Beardie OR son of Capt John Foster Scott II b. 1672 New Kent, VA d. 1729 St. Peter's Parish, New Kent, VA.
Thank you, Susan, for helping us understand the enormity of the Scott problem. I am hearing that many Scott descendants are frustrated. I think there is always hope if we work together and keep taking one simple step at a time. Work is continuing on the children of William Scott d.1794. *We need to figure out who the possible William Scotts of Virginia are, in order to help sort out our William Scott. Our energetic contributor, Vickie, found a rich source on Ancestry called The Edward Pleasants Valentine Papers, Vol. I-IV. The tome is 2,777 pages, so it is difficult to slog through, but it references an abundance of original documents from 1600s to 1700s. She made a list of the 133 occurrences, with info on date, county of record, and type of record. We did find the full text on-line - see link below.
1. I found references to William Scott in 22 counties (or perhaps some parishes) of Virginia during this period. That may imply 22 (and more) different people, or there may be some Wm Scotts who were active in more than one county.
2. One entry in Amherst county, to the north neighboring Bedford, 1789 land purchase. "William Scott of Amherst Co. to Benjamin Plunkett of same Co. L150 : 161 acres in sd. Co. on Storall Creek adjoining lands of John Ballow, Ishams Branch. Oct. 5 1789. Ibid. p.392."
Only five records are in Bedford County.
3a. One is for a land purchase in 1769; "William Scott, 400 acres Bedford Co. July 14, 1769. (38, p.821)." I would suggest that is our William Scott (d. 1794).
3b. 1791 William Scott Bedford, relinquishment of land in Chesterfield for monies owed.
3c. 1792 William Scott Bedford, land purchase.
3d. 1794 William Scott Bedford, deed of trust to others in Chesterfield.
3e. 1795 William Scott Bedford, deed of trust to others in Chesterfield. (May be duplicate or continuation pf previous)
4. There are 12 records for William Scott, Sr. and Jr., of Chesterfield between 1769-1794. This is the other William Scott that Donald mentioned. Ten of these entries are the Will of William Scott of Chesterfield.
5. Wm Scott, Sr. and Jr., of Dinwiddie have 20 records between 1789-1792.
6. There are several generations of William Scotts from Isle of Wight. Records for them span from 1661 through 1795. Reference is made in documents to fathers, sons, brothers, and cousins with the name William Scott.
7. There are nine records for Wm Scott in Lunenburg from 1778-1794. All of these records occur after the creation of Bedford county in 1754.
8. There are transcripts from Quaker records, Monthly Meeting of Friends, 1673-1727 in the Lower Virginia Record Book, from “Nansemond,” which is not a current county of Virginia. These records also span several generations, 1652-1738. Established in 1637 as Upper Norfolk County and the name Nansemond was adopted in 1646. It became the independent city of Nansemond in 1972 and merged with the independent city of Suffolk in 1974. The entire area now known as Suffolk is between Isle of Wight and Norfolk counties on the North Carolina border.

Volume 1 of Three. 1999.
''The inclusion of other Scott lines was decided upon in order to assist those who may be researching other lines. We decided upon this unusual method when we discovered the large number of Scott lines encountered in the history of the region. Our own James Scott II (bl778) was easily confused with at least three other contemporary namesakes, including James Scott (bl785) of Cripple Creek, Wythe County, who descends from the line of Captain John Scott; as well. Captain James Scott of the Glade Spring area of Washington Co (bl784) of the large Samuel Scott clan of that area; finally, James Scott (b!785) of the William Scott of Bedford Co VA clan (called the "North Fork" clan, after the area they settled upon coming to SW VA). If this were not enough, there was as well James Scott (M743) of Clinch River (Washington & later Russell Co), whose line is that of the prominent Scott line of the Abingdon area! We are hopeful the inclusion of these added lines will make it possible for others to locate their own long-lost connections, and as well arrest those who may think they are descended from James & Rachel Scott.''

The Murder of Cherokee Billy
Posted 04 Aug 2008 by Melanie McCoy
Isaac Crabtree witnessed the killing of James Boone and his companions. He was so enraged that ever after he tried to kill any Indian that he might reach, friend or enemy. He would not tolerate the presence of an Indian. Once while attending a horse race on the Watauga, he spied three Indians watching the race, two men and a squaw. One of the men was “Cherokee Billy,” a relative of Chief Connastota. Crabtree shot Cherokee Billy and tried to get the other two, but was prevented by the crowd with much difficulty. It was greatly feared that this might bring trouble from the Indians. There was a local reward of fifty pounds sterling, and one hundred pounds more by the governor, offered for Crabtree, but he was never apprehended. Still he did not desist in his efforts to contact the Indians. The only way those in authority could prevent him from doing some overt act to cause grave danger to the pioneers along the sparcely settled frontier was to keep him busy with necessary military duties. There is another similar, more detailed account in the book: "A Virginia Scout" Author: Hugh Pendexter Illustrator: D. C. Hutchinson. It is available online at : http://www.gutenberg.org/files/26631/26631-8.txt There are at least 77 Public Member Tree results for "Cherokee Billy Scott," born in Robeson (NC) 1720.

Classification: Query
I am Don Scott, keeper of the Scott Family tree open on ancestry. As one can from comments see the origins of William Scott d 1794 in Bedford Co Va. are varied and without substantiation. These vary from parents Walter Scott and Helen Wilson and born in Denny Scotland; parent John came from Ireland and William born in Charles County, Md; came from Selkirk, Scotland, parents Walter and Janet Inlis, etc. I have studied this William (my ancestor) for many years. I can prove William and Lucretia and their descendants from Bedford forward. Although I have traveled to Ireland and Scotland many times and visited most of the counties of Va and Md. I do not know where William and Lucretia came from nor where they married. '''Don Scott is here on WT and has been contacted.''' *"The Scott Line: My Roots" updated 6July 2001.

I started with [[Scott-28562|Thomas Scott]] on his FS profile, and worked through all twelve children in an attempt to use FS records database to find sources. This process only had limited success, but needed to be done. The project went forward here on WT until early November, when it was determined that enough material had been gathered and as much of it needed to be copied to FS profiles as possible. The first disruption we caused was to adjust the birth year estimates to conform with the Will list order, which we assumed to be actual birth order. We also decided to introduce the theory, and five points of evidence supporting the theory, of two marriages for William, as well as a profile for an earlier wife, name unknown. Several FS contributors fought against our changes until they actually took the time to review our lines of reasoning taken from the sources we had posted. That also needed to be done as part of our process. Changes were made on the profiles of Sarah Scott Lee. One with a supported husband was disconnected and the name of the other was changed, although no material has been found which could be added or used to support any additional details. We have recently uncovered a number of additional family histories, which reference a variety of source we had not yet found, so that our efforts will be concentrated on these newest finds listed below.) *Looking for "Scott Family Sketch"

Looking for "Scott Family Sketch"

Classification: Query
Surnames: Scott, Arnold, James
We are looking for a copy of "Scott Family Sketch" written by William Poston Scott in 1851 and compiled by Mrs. C.L. Arnold in 1958. It is referenced in several other histories we have found online and as a source for records behind other genealogy paywalls, but we cannot find the "Sketch" in library catalogs or other online reference sources. It supposedly includes information on William Scott, who emigrated from the Scotland Highlands and married a Lucretia (Lucy) James. We suspect the original "Sketch" might give us more insight into our family history. Any leads to the original document are most welcome.
(https://www.ancestry.com/boards/surnames.scott/13191/mb.ashx : accessed on 26Oct2018) *William Scott found in"Who Are Her People?: The Life and Family of Louise Maynard Hoskins" By Rebecca Hoskins Goodwin 2018.
"We have no certain evidence where our Scott family originated, perhaps in the highlands or the lowlands of Scotland, or perhaps they were Scots-Irish. The progenitors of the Scott family in the Tug River Valley were William and Lucretia James Scott of Bedford County, Virginia."
"The Scott Family Sketch (1851) states that William Scott's father emigrated from the Highlands of Scotland to either Charles or Prince Georges County, Maryland, early in the 18th century.4
Another researcher also cites "The Scott Family Sketch" but asserts that it was William himself who came to Charles County, Maryland, and that he sold property there in 1747, 1748 and 1766 and moved to Bedford County, Virginia, where in a deed registered in 1763, he purchased property near the foot of the Blue Ridge on Goose Creek.5
As a third Scott researcher says, "The origins of William Scott are varied and without substantiation. These vary from parents; #) Walter Scott and Helen Wilson whose son William was born in Denny Scotland. #) John Scott from Ireland whose son William was born in Charles County, Maryland. #) Walter Scott and Janet Inlis/Inglish from Selkirk, Scotland. Even though we have been unable to establish William's parentage and place of birth or where he and Lucretia were married, we know that William and Lucretia were the parents of twelve children. This is corroborated by William's Will, which is dated 7 December 1793, and probated 24 November 1794 in Bedford County, Virginia.7"Who Are Her People?: The Life and Family of Louise Maynard Hoskins" By Rebecca Hoskins Goodwin 2018, [https://books.google.com/books?id=gThmDwAAQBAJ&pg=PT121&lpg=PT121&dq=%22Axton+Scott%22+%22Dorcas+Wright%22+Virginia+1748&source=bl&ots=TPx615yk08&sig=R0BmYaGBvgQhasOGODEkZTz8CiA&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjAyKyWyKTeAhWDqIMKHbk1DdQQ6AEwB3oECAEQAQ#v=onepage&q=William%20Scott&f=false], No page numbers, Section on Scott's. *William Scott found on "Family Group Sheet Project" Family group sheet has vitals for a William Scott, Mary Lucas and also for three children.

[[Category: US Southern Colonies Project]][[Category:Virginia Colony]][[Category:Province of North Carolina]][[Category: Province of South Carolina]][[Category: Province of Georgia]][[Category: Great Wagon Road]] [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies%2C_Southern_Migration| US Southern Colonies, Southern Migration]] The Great Wagon Road was an improved trail through the Great Appalachian Valley from Pennsylvania, Maryland and Virginia to North Carolina, and from there to Georgia in colonial America. The heavily traveled Great Wagon Road was the primary route for the early settlement of the Southern United States, particularly the "backcountry". Although a wide variety of settlers traveled southward on the road, two dominant cultures emerged. The German Palatines and Scotch-Irish American immigrants arrived in huge numbers because of unendurable conditions in Europe. The Germans (also known as Pennsylvania Dutch) tended to find rich farmland and work it zealously to become stable and prosperous. The other group (known also as Presbyterian or Ulster Scots) tended to be restless, clannish, and fiercely independent; they formed what became known as the Appalachian Culture. Partly because of the language difference, the two groups tended to keep to themselves. Beginning at the port of Philadelphia, where many immigrants entered the colonies, the Great Wagon Road passed through the towns of Lancaster and York in southeastern Pennsylvania. :Travellers headed west from Philadelphia to Lancaster, where they bought a wagon for the difficult journey ahead — a [http://www.portal.state.pa.us/portal/server.pt?open=512&objID=4280&&PageID=478210&level=4&css=L4&mode=2 “'Conestoga wagon”'], named for the Conestoga River that runs through Lancaster. Building wagons was so important to Lancaster’s economy that by 1770, Lancaster included among its craftsmen five wheelwrights, thirteen blacksmiths, seven turners, and twenty woodworkers.1 From there the road headed northwest to Harris Ferry — present-day Harrisburg — where travellers crossed the Susquehanna River.[http://www.learnnc.org/lp/editions/nchist-colonial/2038 Learn NC] Turning southwest, the road crossed the Potomac River and entered the Shenandoah Valley near present-day Martinsburg, West Virginia. It continued south in the valley via the Great Warriors' Trail (also called the Indian Road, as on this map), which was established by centuries of Indian travel over ancient trails created by migrating buffalo herds. The Shenandoah portion of the road is also known as the Valley Pike. The Treaty of Lancaster in 1744 had established colonists' rights to settle along the Indian Road. Although traffic on the road increased dramatically after 1744, it was reduced to a trickle during the French and Indian War (Seven Years' War) from 1756 to 1763. But after the war ended, it became the most heavily traveled road in America. :"Near Winchester, Virginia, the road entered the Shenandoah Valley between the Blue Ridge and Allegheny Mountains. Near Roanoke, Virginia, the road passed through the Roanoke River Gap to the east side of the Blue Ridge."[http://www.learnnc.org/lp/editions/nchist-colonial/2038 Learn NC] South of the Shenandoah Valley, the road reached the Roanoke River at the town of Big Lick (today, Roanoke). South of Roanoke, the Great Wagon Road was also called the Carolina Road. At Roanoke, a road forked southwest, leading into the upper New River Valley and on to the Holston River in the upper Tennessee Valley. From there, the Wilderness Road led into Kentucky, ending at the Ohio River where flatboats were available for further travel into the Midwest and even to New Orleans. :At Roanoke, Virginia, a road continued southwest through the Shenandoah Valley and met up with the '''Wilderness Road''' into Kentucky. From Big Lick/Roanoke, after 1748, the Great Wagon Road passed through the Maggoty Gap (also called Maggodee) to the east side of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Continuing south through the Piedmont region, it passed through the present-day North Carolina towns of Winston-Salem, Salisbury, and Charlotte and sites of earlier Indian settlements on the historic Indian Trading Path. The Great Wagon Road ultimately reached Augusta, Georgia on the Savannah River, a distance of more than 800 miles (1,300 km) from Philadelphia ----

Adams were... The Sea Adventure, with Sir Thomas Gates and Sir George Sommers, and Capt. Newport; The Diamond, with Capt. Ratcliffe and Capt. King; The Falcon, with Capt.Martin and Master Nelson; The Unitie, with Capt. Wood and Master Pett; The Lion with Capt. Webb; The Swallow with Capt. Moone and Master Somers. In The Catch dwent one Matthew Fitch, Master and in the boat of Capt. George Somers called The Virginia, which was built in the North Colony, were Capt. Davies and Master Davies. These were the Captains and Masters of our Fleet... We had the most terrible and vehement storm, which separated all of our fleet from one another... The Blessing arrived safely in Virginia...".The Genesis of the U.S., Vol. I; pages 328-329 Thirty two people from two ships were thrown overboard with yellow fever. The London plague broke out on the Diamond, and the ships were all separated in a tempest (hurricane) on Saint James Day, July 25th. After the storm, the Blessing, the Lion, the Falcon and the Unitie (all on board were sick) came together and headed for Virginia, "falling into the James River." The Diamond appeared a few days later, and the Swallow a few days after that. The Catch was lost at sea, the Seaventure purposely wrecked in Bermuda. Four days after the hurricane, the Seaventure began taking on water. Land was sited and she wrecked between two reefs off the shores at Discovery Bay of Bermuda on 28 July 1609. All of approximately 150 passengers safely made land, "not a hair perished." Two pinnaces were built during the following nine months, the "Deliverance" and the "Patience" from the timber of the ruined Seaventure. The Deliverance was started September 7, 1609 built by Robert Frobisher, eighty tons, the Patience was only thirty tons, built by George Somers. These vessels sailed on to Virginia 20 May 1610, landing Monday. May 31 at Point Comfort, Virginia. (May 30 was a Saturday) They left two men behind, Christopher Carter and Robert Waters. The Virginia arrival date is unknown, but is noted to have stayed at Jamestown along with the Swallow, while other ships returned.. The ships carried supplies for six hundred people, but these were damaged by the storm. In three days, the new settlers ate Jamestown's entire crop of corn. About two hundred people arrived from the Third Supply, and found only less than 109 people alive in Jamestown. The Diamond, Falcon, Blessing, Unitie and Lion left Virginia October 14, 1609, taking Captain John Smith with them to England, along with thirty unruly youths sent from England but not accepted in Virginia. Some reports say the two ships [Swallow and Virginia or Deliverance and Patience?] had given up and were headed home when they came across more ships under Thomas West, Lord de la Warr, on his way to the colonies, and were persuaded to return on their voyage to Jamestown. Some reports say 150 landed [Bermuda, aboard Seaventure?] and 142 left, leaving behind 8 people, some say three men were left on the islands to hold the claim in Bermuda. Fourteen days later, the two ships reach Virginia where only 60 of the other 140 settlers survived. Also reported May 23, 1610 for the date of arrival of 140 survivors per Coldham pg 3. On 19 June 1610 Sir George Somers volunteered to return to Bermuda aboard the "Patience" for supplies for the struggling colony of Virginia. George Somers returned to Bermuda, dying there in November of 1610. Captain Matthew Somers returned to England aboard the "Patience" with his uncle's body. === Timeline === : Nine ships left England in June 1609, all were separated by a storm "on Saint James Day, July 25th" # Sea Venture -> damaged in storm, made Bermuda 28 July 1609; two pinnaces were built from her timbers: ##Deliverance -> sailed from Bermuda on 20 May 1610 -> arrived Virginia 31 May 1610* ##Patience -> sailed from Bermuda on 20 May 1610 -> arrived Virginia 31 May 1610* -> 19 June, sailed for Bermuda -> left Bermuda for England after death of George Somers (November 1610) # Blessing -> arrived in Virginia after storm, with ''Lion, Falcon,'' and ''Unitie'' -> left for England on 14 October 1609 with them, plus the Diamond # Lion -> arrived Virginia after storm -> left 14 October 1609 # Falcon -> arrived Virginia after storm -> left 14 October 1609 # Unitie -> arrived Virginia after storm -> left 14 October 1609 # Diamond -> plague on board but made Virginia just a few days after the other four ships -> left for England on 14 October 1609 # Swallow -> made Virginia a few days after the Diamond -> stayed in Virginia # Virginia of the North Colony -> arrival date unknown, but made Virginia -> stayed in Virginia # Catch -> lost at sea :: * Narrative in previous section says the Deliverance and the Patience left Bermuda on 20 May 1610 and arrived in Virginia on 31 May, but also mentions a 23 May arrival date as well as saying the voyage took 14 days (assuming those references were to the Deliverance and the Patience). === Passengers === : '''Alphabetical''' :Bagwell, Henry :: Aged 35, listed on the Deliverance, landed at Jamestown presumably originally in the wrecked Seaventure. :: 8a: Aged 35 at muster at West & Sherley's Hundred, Charles City 1624 with Symon Turgis and two servants. :Bennit, Nicholas :: Carpenter :Brian, William :Briars, Jeffrey :: Died in Bermuda :Buck, Richard :: Sailed June 1609 with wife, Miss Langley and four Buck children. :: Marooned for 9 months embarked for Virginia from Bermuda 10 May 1610.

Two categorization terms are used extensively below and important to understand: * ''High Level Category'' - is used to group other categories. It will often carry a legend that ''Person Profiles'' should not be added to the high level category, but rather to a subcategory. * ''Landing Level Category'' - is a category far enough down the category tree that it is expected to contain primarily ''Person Profiles'' rather than being used to group together several narrower categories. To view the category hierarchy, on any category page (e.g. [[:Category:US Southern Colonies Project|US Southern Colonies Project]]), click the [Navigate] link in the upper-right corner of the page. The [[Space:US Southern Colonies Categories Team|US Southern Colonies Categories Team]] supports the Project and individual WikiTreers by keeping the Project's categories in good order, providing guidance on their use, and generating documentation like this page. Please visit the Categories Team page if you need assistance, or to provide feedback or suggestions. == Introduction == Project-related ''Categories'', ''Pages'', and ''Person Profiles'' are organized under the Project's high level ''Category'': * [[:Category:US Southern Colonies Project|US Southern Colonies Project]] which has four primary project level ''Subcategories'': * [[:Category:US Southern Colonies|US Southern Colonies]] (locations, 7 colony subcategories) * [[:Category:US Southern Colonists|US Southern Colonists]] (persons, 7 colony subcategories) * [[:Category:US Southern Colonists Adjunct|US Southern Colonists Adjunct]] (persons) * [[:Category:US Southern Colonies, Uncertain Existence|US Southern Colonies, Uncertain Existence]] (persons) and four supporting project level ''Subcategories'': * [[:Category:US Southern Colonies Family Studies|US Southern Colonies Family Studies]] * [[:Category:US Southern Colonies Project Maintenance Categories|US Southern Colonies Project Maintenance Categories]] * [[:Category:US Southern Colonies Project Members|US Southern Colonies Project Members]] * [[:Category:US Southern Colonies Reliable Sources|US Southern Colonies Reliable Sources]] The table below shows the relationship between the 7 colonies and the ''Colonists'' and ''Colonies'' categories, as well as the Project Teams working each. Note that the ''Colonists'' (persons) categories are in a '''separate''' hierarchy from the ''Colonies'' (locations) categories. {| cellpadding="8" border="1" !Colony!!Colonies (Locations)

If the ''colony'' parameter is mistakenly omitted, the project box and project sticker automatically assign the profile to the ''US Southern Colonists'' category. The profile will need to be edited to assign a ''colony'' parameter. As an alternative to adding the project sticker, you may manually assign the profile to a ''colony level Colonists'' category. If you remove the project sticker but wish the ''Person Profile'' to remain under the watch of the Project, remember to add the ''colony level Colonists'' category manually. == Colonies Timeline == The [[Project:US Southern Colonies |US Southern Colonies Project]] covers "the colonies of Maryland, Virginia, the Carolinas and Georgia prior to 1776."[[Project:US_Southern_Colonies#Goal|US Southern Colonies Project Goal]] (accessed 21 August 2020). For the purposes of WikiTree, the colonies ended 4 July 1776. For the purposes of categorization, the following dates/events are used by the Project. The Colony of Virginia was chartered in 1606, was transferred to royal authority as a crown colony in 1624, and existed until 1776. Jamestown Colony was settled in 1607, and the last Jamestown muster was performed in January 1624/5. * Jamestown settlers from 1606 to 1624 are assigned to [[:Category:Jamestown Colonists]]. * Non-Jamestown settlers and post-January 1624/5 Jamestown residents are assigned to [[:Category:Virginia Colonists]]. The Province of Maryland existed from 1632 until 1776. The Province of Carolina existed from 1663 until 1712, and was then partitioned into The Province of North Carolina and The Province of South Carolina in 1712. The Province of North Carolina and The Province of South Carolina then each existed from 1712 to 1776. The Province of Georgia existed from 1732 to 1776. {| cellpadding="8" border="1" !Colony!!Begin!!End |- |Virginia||1606||4 Jul 1776 |- |Jamestown||1606||Jan 1625 |- |Maryland||1632||4 Jul 1776 |- |Carolina||1663||23 Jan 1712 |- |North Carolina||24 Jan 1712||4 Jul 1776 |- |South Carolina||24 Jan 1712||4 Jul 1776 |- |Georgia||1732||4 Jul 1776 |}
== Rationale == This section documents Project discussion and decisions affecting the use of ''Categories'' by the Project. ''2020-Sep—Colony level location categories top level or mid level''
This question was posed to the Colonial Teams (sent via the US Southern Colonies' Discussion Google Group and posted to the [[Space:US Southern Colonies Teams#comments|Teams]] page): :Should the colony level location category be top level (no ''Person Profiles'') or mid level across the board or as determined by each Colonial Team and, if a top level category, what to do about the ''Person Profiles'' with no information to indicate a county or a district? Answers received were for top level, meaning no ''Person Profiles'' in the colony level subcategories. The question of what to do with profiles of persons without more specific location information didn't have a clear answer, but adding them to the "needs=Location Research" project maintenance category would be a start. == Resources and References ==

The Categories Team provides guidance for use of the project's categories on the category page or a companion free-space page. The Categories Team works with its consultants and the [[Project: Categorization|Categorization Project]] as needed. == Project Categories == ''Categories'' are a fairly complex topic, so ''no'' attempt is made to discuss them here. To learn about the project's use of categories, start here: * [[Space:US Southern Colonies Categories|US Southern Colonies Categories]] describes how ''categories'' are used by the [[Project:US Southern Colonies|US Southern Colonies Project]], and provides guidance on their use. See this page for a detailed description of each category type. * [[:Category:US Southern Colonies Project]] is the high-level category for project-related ''Categories'' and ''Pages''. * [[Space:US Southern Colonies Project Maintenance Categories|US Southern Colonies Project Maintenance Categories]] describes the project-specific maintenance categories used to organize the work of project members and others interested in improving the profiles of US Southern Colonists. * [[Space: US Southern Colonies Project Maintenance Categories By Team|US Southern Colonies Project Maintenance Categories By Team]] shows the project teams that work each maintenance category. The Categories Team supports these teams by clearing categorization errors and template-related errors. == Team Roles == The Team consists of the Team Leader, Members, and Consultants. The '''Team Leader''' must be a member of the [[Project:Categorization|Categorization Project]] and serves as liaison to that project. '''Team Members''' are encouraged to join the [[Project:Categorization|Categorization Project]], but it is not a requirement. The Team Leader is available to guide your efforts until you are comfortable working with categories. '''Consultants''' are just that—the Categories Team consults them concerning their area (Team or Group) when a review of categories identifies a problem or a need. Team Leaders and Project Coordinators are welcome to serve as a ''Categories Consultant'' for their team or project, or designate a team or project member. Otherwise, the Team Leader or Project Coordinator will be contacted as needed. == Team Members == * '''Team Leader''' [[Spratlin-29|Ken Spratlin]] * [[Stephens-3929|Alice (Stephens) Thomsen Staff Sgt.]] interested in Virginia and profile improvement * '''Consultants''' ::{| border="1" class="sortable" cellpadding="5" bgcolor="#f29754" !Consultant!!Team |- bgcolor="#f7fff7" |[[Day-1904|Jack Day]]||[[Space:US Southern Colonies Province of Maryland Team|Maryland Team]] |- bgcolor="#f7fff7" |[[Richardson-7161|Mary Richardson]]||[[Space:US Southern Colonies Jamestown Team|Jamestown Team]] |- bgcolor="#f7fff7" |[[Richardson-7161|Mary Richardson]]||[[Space:US Southern Colonies Province of Carolina_Team|Carolina Team]] |- bgcolor="#f7fff7" |[[Spratlin-29|Ken Spratlin]]||[[Space: US Southern Colonies Managed Profiles Teams |Managed Profiles Team]] |} == Join Us == If you wish to be considered for the team, please post a comment to this page, something as simple as "I want to join." == Workspace == For more information about the team's activities, including more detail about the information on this page, see: * [[Space:US Southern Colonies Categories Team Workspace|Workspace]]

It all began with the settlement at Jamestown in 1607 (a poorly-sited location later abandoned) and Kecoughtan a better-sited location essentially stolen from Native Americans in 1610 which in the 21st century lays claim to status as the oldest continually-occupied settlement in the British Colonies in what is now the United States. For almost 400 years, hundreds of counties, cities, and towns were formed in the Colony of Virginia and later the Commonwealth (State) of Virginia (the Old Dominion). It was generally the tradition of the English during the colonial period to establish large geographic units, and then to subsequently sub-divide them into smaller more manageable units. This two-phase process was conducted in order to establish legal claims to maximum territory. As areas were settled the large territories were subdivided for a variety of reasons. Counties. The local governmental unit of a "county" came to Virginia following the form of shires (or counties) in England in 1634. The concept as it was brought to North America, was to have an area of size such that legal matter such as recordation of land and property transfers, resolutions of disputes, and other matters could be handled at a "court" within a day's journey of travel from all of its parts. As the population of counties grew, especially into more distant geographic extremities, many counties were subdivided to form additional counties. Having counties comprised of areas of common interests to the citizens became a more important factor as the distance one could travel in a single day increased. Throughout the United States, counties are generally the setting for local courts, and local courts are still the designated places for recording land transactions and resolving civil disputes and criminal matters. *[http://boards.cannabis.com/virginia-va/69946-lost-counties-cities-towns-virginia.html Lost counties, cities, and towns of Virginia ] == Settlers == '''Early Colonial Virginia Settlers''' The following persons were among the prominent first families that immigrated to Colonial Virginia in the 1600's through the early 1700's: : ''ACTION: Add links to their WikiTree profiles.'' === Resources related to Early Virginia Families === *[http://www.werelate.org/wiki/Early_Settlers_of_Colonial_Virginia Early Settlers of Colonial Virginia] (WeRelate.org) *[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_Families_of_Virginia First Families of Virginia] (Wikipedia) *[http://apva.org/rediscovery/page.php?page_id=31 Original Settlers of Jamestowne] * Early Colonial Virginia - www.genealogical-gleanings.com/Early_Virginia.htm was a dead link but captured by archive.org's WayBack Machine: ** [https://web.archive.org/web/20160615014202/http://genealogical-gleanings.com/Early%20Virginia.htm Early Colonial Virginia] ** [https://web.archive.org/web/20160531052440/http://www.genealogical-gleanings.com/Sitemap.htm Genealogical Gleanings Site Map] *[http://dallen1989.tripod.com/Virginia-Settlers.html Virginia Early Settlers] *[https://archive.org/details/lewisesmeriwethe00ande ''Lewises, Meriwethers and their kin : Lewises and Meriwethers with their tracings through the families whose records are herein contained,''] digital book which can be borrowed from the [https://archive.org Internet Archive] *[http://www.jstor.org/stable/1915297?seq=1#page_scan_tab_contents Virginia Names Spelt One Way and Called Another] The William and Mary Quarterly Vol. 3, No. 4 (Apr., 1895), pp. 271-273 *[https://archive.org/details/cavalierspioneer00nuge/page/538/mode/2up ''Cavaliers and Pioneers, abstracts of Virginia land patents and grants, 1623-1800.''] by Nugent, Nell Marion; Virginia State Library; Virginia Genealogical Society.

==Kentucky, Originally Part of Virginia Colony== : ''This entire section needs removal to a Virginia and/or Kentucky Resources Page.'' Separation from Virginia Several factors contributed to the desire of the residents of Kentucky to separate from Virginia. First, traveling to the state capital was long and dangerous. Second, offensive use of local militia against Indian raids required authorization from the governor of Virginia. Last, Virginia refused to recognize the importance of trade along the Mississippi River to Kentucky's economy. Trade with the Spanish colony of New Orleans, which controlled the mouth of the Mississippi, was forbidden.[5] The magnitude of these problems increased with the population of Kentucky, leading Colonel Benjamin Logan to call a constitutional convention in Danville in 1784. Over the next six years, nine more conventions were held. During one, General James Wilkinson proposed secession from both Virginia and the United States to become a ward of Spain, but the idea was defeated. Finally, on June 1, 1792, with Virginia consenting to the separation, the United States Congress accepted the Kentucky Constitution and admitted it as the 15th state,[5] without creating a territory first Kentucky was a battleground during the Revolutionary War; the Battle of Blue Licks, one of the last major battles of the Revolution, was fought in Kentucky. *[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Kentucky History of Kentucky] *[https://www.scribd.com/doc/61938550/Revolutionary-War-in-Kentucky Revolutionary War in Kentucky] *[http://kynghistory.ky.gov/history/1qtr/lodbluelicks.htm In The Line of Duty Battle of Blue Licks] Fort Boonesborough located in Madison County, established in 1775, by Daniel Boone and others, was the first fort in Kentucky.

They began with large plantations in Lancaster County and moved to Prince William, Loudoun, Clarke/Frederick and then to Fairfax County around 1890. Once my 4th GGF died in 1801, his large number of children primarily moved to 3 different counties in KY and to Bloomington, IN. From KY, many of the kids from subsequent generations settled in Texas and as far west as California. One daughter stayed in Loudoun County with her husband and children while my 3rd GGF, James Carter, moved a short distance from his family home in Loudoun County to Frederick/Clarke County, where he married and had a large family of his own. Besides Carter, prominent surnames in my family are Norman (Liberty County, GA, Macon, MO and Seattle, WA), Bosteyon/Boston, Crump, Clark, Estes, Gaines, Richards, Hospital, Pendleton, Mitchell, Rowland, Jacobs, Stacy, Wills, Breeze and Salter. * [[Christian-3893|Jim Christian]]- My Virginia decendents are from Christian's Creek, Aguata, VA.

I am a member of DAR, and my aunt (who traveled many times to UK to do research-it was lost when she passed) was a member of the Huguenot Society and Valley Forge Society. I would like to trace back as far as possible. I would also like to meet relatives. *[[Davis-22213|Teresa Davis]] - about Teresa * [[DeSpain-617|Laura DeSpain]] My ancestors arrived in Maryland, Virginia and, the Carolina's between the 1500s and the 1700s.

I'm sure I left someone out! * [[Kleine-49|Honi Kleine]]: I am an obsessive learner with great interest in Early American History. My own family's history is deeply rooted in Colonial Virginia, more recently in those Stith, Smith, Webster, and Vaughan families, to name a few, who left civilization and organized government to do their part in populating the State of Kentucky.

At least one line goes back to Jamestown. I look forward to learning more about them through this project. * [[Snead-753|Max Snead, Jr.]]: Greetings to all! I am very happy to be participating! The surnames of my known paternal Virginia ancestors and the number of generations between the first ancestor by that name and me are: Arrington (2), Barte (4), Clark(e) (3), Coleman (5), Cralle (4), Crowder (3), Estes (4), Golding (6), Hatter (4), Jones (5), Leake (6), Oglesby (6), Opie (6), Rosser (5), Rowsey (5), Smith (5), Sne*d (1), Wood (5) and Woodrum (6). The 6th generation people are my 4X great grandparents who became parents generally in the thirty years beginning in 1760 (for a few, it was earlier and for a few more, it was later). Three Sne*ds- Thomas, William and John - arrived in the colony in 1619. Samuel arrived between 1633 and 1635. DNA testing suggests that Samuel and one of the first three are the progenitors of two Haplo-subgroups that moved west from the Chesapeake, often living in the same vicinity with common given names and leading to confused ancestral assignments. I am hoping to make the connection between my most remote known grandparent -- John b. abt. 1738, d. 1802 in Amherst County, married Sarah Woodrum of Goochland on 6 April 1763, with whom they were parents of Benjamin, Claiborne, Elizabeth, Elisha, Randolph, Alice and Hannah -- and one of the two haplogroup progenitors. I would also like to assemble accurate family trees for the two groups up to the time of the Revolutionary War. The various published Sne*d genealogies do not recognize the presence of two lineages before that time. I am 79 years old and live in Denver, Colorado. I have studied Virginia history but still have a lot to learn. I look forward to helping others with their family searches, certain that I will learn. * [[Spratlin-29|Ken Spratlin]]: Currently compiling and properly sourcing all records for Spratlin(g) surname in Virginia pre-1800.

The page [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Project-Managed_Profiles|US Southern Colonies Project-Managed Profiles]] presents the criteria by which the project decides to ''manage'' and ''protect'' person profiles—known as Project-Managed Profiles (PMP) and Project-Protected Profiles (PPP). The ''Introduction'' section of that page also provides a high-level description of the purpose and tasks associated with this activity. That material is not repeated here, and should be understood as background for this page. This page progresses in level-of-detail from general ''activities'' to specific ''tasks'' to the ''processes'' used to perform those tasks. The ''More Detail'' section then provides explanatory material including discussion and agreements. == Activities == The project accomplishes its purpose in a variety of ways including: * ''collaborating'' with other WikiTreers, including participating in discussions about person profiles through G2G * ''managing'' and additionally, in some cases, ''protecting'' the profile of a US Southern Colonist ** via: trusted list, profile manager including adopting orphaned profiles, profile co-manager, protected profile ** ''designating'' profiles as PMP or PMP/PPP, and then removing when no longer needed ** ''maintaining'' a list of managed profiles including information about profile status ** ''monitoring'' watchlists, activity feeds, suggestion reports, and error reports ** ''improving'' managed profiles ** ''advocating'' for initiatives and tools to further the project's goals and activities == Tasks == The [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Managed_Profiles_Teams|Managed Profiles Team]] performs the following tasks: # Review and disposition project [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1eikIrUIrPQYP4IICtDdfoaJ63y6Z3wq7lnhTmVzoZaA/edit#gid=823172408 Request Form (tab 1)]. # Maintain project [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1eikIrUIrPQYP4IICtDdfoaJ63y6Z3wq7lnhTmVzoZaA/edit#gid=58387222 Managed Profiles Master List (tab 2)]. ## Add entries for person profiles when designated PMP or PMP/PPP. ## Revise entries for person profiles when PMP or PMP/PPP is revised. ## Remove entries for person profiles when PMP or PMP/PPP is removed. ## Add entries for missing, existing person profiles. (on-going startup task) ## Review list for missing links and status. (on-going startup task) # Maintain PMP and PMP/PPP person profiles. ## Edit person profiles based on the ''Action (Last Review)'' column, and revise data field to reflect edit. # Monitor the project [https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Special:NetworkFeed&who=WikiTree-24&l=500&watchlist=1&hideown=0 activity feed]. See the [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Managed_Profiles_Workspace|Managed Profiles Workspace]] for the monitoring schedule and last monitored status. == Processes == === Project Editing Guidance === All changes made by members of the [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Managed_Profiles_Teams|Managed Profiles Team]] should be made in accordance with the [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Project_Editing_Guidance|US Southern Colonies Project Editing Guidance]]. === Determine Management Approach === # Determine if there are conflated or duplicate profiles of the person profile. If there are duplicate profiles, only the lowest-numbered profile should be made PPP. # Assess the person profile against the [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Project-Managed_Profiles#Criteria for Management and Protection|criteria]]. # Determine if the objectives can be achieved without project management through collaboration or mentoring, and by following the person profile by adding the [[WikiTree-24|project account]] to the profile's Trusted List. Note: This approach is seldom used; the only examples are profiles already having one of the US Southern Colonies Project Leadership Team as the profile manager. # Determine if the person profile should be [[#Co-Management|co-managed]] with another project. # Determine if the person profile will have too many co-managers after adding the project or another project. # Make the necessary changes, and notify interested parties. === Make a Person Profile into a PMP or PMP/PPP === Note: Steps 1-3 are performed by any member of the [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Managed_Profiles_Teams|Managed Profiles Team]]. Steps 4-5 are performed by a Project Leader. # Add the person profile to the [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1eikIrUIrPQYP4IICtDdfoaJ63y6Z3wq7lnhTmVzoZaA/edit#gid=58387222 Managed Profiles Master List (tab 2)]. #: '''Note''': remember only the lowest-numbered profile should be made PPP. # Add the [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Template:US_Southern_Colonist Project Box] above the biography heading of the person profile. The colony parameter should be set to the colony of the responsible [[Space:US Southern Colonies Teams#Colonial Teams|Colonial Team]]. # Document the decision criteria as part of the ''Change'': #: ''Change Explanation'': #:: US Southern Colonies Project adding project management (PMP) and project protection (PPP)—[basis]. #:
#: ''Post New Comment'': #:: US Southern Colonies Project adding project management (PMP) and project protection (PPP)—[basis]. #::
#:: Please continue to manage normally, and review [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Project_Editing_Guidance|US Southern Colonies Project Editing Guidance]] before editing. #: '''Note''': See ''Basis for Project Management/Protection'' column for examples of the [basis] text. # Add the [[WikiTree-24|project account]] to the person profile's Trusted List, and elevate the project account to profile manager. # If the person profile is also being protected, set the ''Locked Status'' to 1. == More Detail == === Project Scope === The scope of the [[Project:US Southern Colonies|US Southern Colonies Project]] is persons born or settled in the colonies of Maryland, Virginia, the Carolinas, and Georgia prior to 4 July 1776—referred to as [[:Category:US Southern Colonists|US Southern Colonists]] by the project. The project scope ''includes'': # indentured servants The project scope ''does not include'': # Native Americans (generally, they were not colonists; see instead the [[Project:Native_Americans|Native Americans Project]]) # enslaved people (see instead the [[Project:US_Black_Heritage|US Black Heritage Project]]; however, profile managers of enslaved persons may choose to display the project sticker) === Project Box and Sticker === * The [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Template:US_Southern_Colonist Project Box] is added to all project-managed person profiles '''by the [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Managed_Profiles_Teams|Managed Profiles Team]]'''. * One or more [https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Template:US_Southern_Colonist_Sticker Project Stickers] may be added to any person profile within the project scope in accordance with [[Help:Stickers#Rules on adding and removing|WikiTree's Sticker rules]]. * The Project Box and Project Sticker colony parameter is a required parameter. The colony parameter for the Project Box should be set to the colony of the responsible [[Space:US Southern Colonies Teams#Colonial Teams|Colonial Team]]. === Co-Management === * The [[Project:US Southern Colonies|US Southern Colonies Project]] co-manages person profiles with WikiTreers and other WikiTree projects. * "If a profile has more than four or five profile managers, it becomes unwieldy."[[Help:Profile Manager#Can you remove other profile managers?|Help:Profile Manager, maximum number of profile managers]] * "The profiles covered by projects inevitably overlap. However, one project should usually have primary responsibility. There should never be more than two projects managing the same profile."[[Help:Project FAQ#Can profiles be covered by multiple projects?|Help:Project FAQ, maximum number of projects]] ==== Interested Projects ==== The projects below are those most commonly interested in person profiles within the project scope. '''Immigrants''' * [[Project:Magna Carta|Magna Carta Project]] ''co-managed: US Southern Colonies Project picks up with descendants of profiles managed by the Magna Carta Project, which runs from Surety Baron to Gateway Ancestor. '' * [[Project:New Netherland Settlers|New Netherland Settlers Project]] * [[Project:William Penn and Early Pennsylvania Settlers|William Penn and Early Pennsylvania Settlers]] * [[Project:Palatine Migration|Palatine Migration Project]] * [[Project:England|England Project]] ''usually just US Southern Colonies Project as manager'' Per the England Project: "The England Project is happy for the US Southern Colonies Project to manage profiles which emigrated from England to the Colonies without needing to co-manage. Non-migrating ancestors which are contentious may be managed by the England Project after discussion with the EP Managed Profiles team ([https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSefSCF_XfsxHOz2MOs6x8wq-w07bF6EoGVjbwu03HEkLVhrMA/viewform EP suggestion form]). The "Born in England" sticker {{England Sticker}} does not imply that the England Project is monitoring the profile." * [[Project:Wales|Wales Project]] '''Religion''' * [[Project:Quakers|Religious Society of Friends (Quakers) Project]] ''Quakers Project prefers that its sticker is displayed rather than co-managing with another project'' * [[Project:Huguenot Migration|Huguenot Migration Project]] ''co-management or display sticker (ours or [[Project:Huguenot_Migration#Templates|theirs]]) - if theirs & born in France, then {{Huguenot Emigrant}} '''American Revolution and the fledgling USA''' * [[Project:1776|1776 Project]] ''sole project manager of profiles for the Founding Fathers; otherwise, use the [[Template:1776 Sticker|1776 Sticker]]'' * [[Project:Southern Pioneers|Southern Pioneers Project]] ''primarily for people who left the colonies and migrated to the inland states''While the US Southern Colonies Project manages those born before 4 July 1776, if the person's pre-1776 life is overshadowed by their post-1776 life, then one of the United States subprojects or the Southern Pioneers Project may wish to be the primary project. * [[Project:United States|United States]] subprojects '''Ancestor of ...''' * [[Project:US Presidents|US Presidents Project]] manages the profiles of US Presidents and also several generations of the Presidents' ancestors. == Footnotes & Sources ==

Links to the Colony-level hierarchies and examples of migration categories following the WikiTree hierarchy are in the [[#table|table (below)]]. The US Southern Colonies Project also has colony-to-colony categories for migration between colonies (see [[#ColonialMigrant|below]]). WikiTree's [[Space:Migration_Category_Structure|Migration Category Structure]] is based on people moving between countries and has separate hierarchies for Immigrants and Emigrants. This page primarily describes how that works for profiles within the scope of the [[Project:US Southern Colonies |US Southern Colonies Project]]. : Immigrants are under [[:Category: Colonial America, Immigrants]] ([[[https://plus.wikitree.com/function/WTCatNavigate/Category.htm?Category=Colonial_America%2C_Immigrants&Levels=3 Navigate]]), a subcategory of [[:Category: American Immigration]] ([[https://plus.wikitree.com/function/WTWebCategoryNavigate/Category.htm?category=American%20Immigration Navigate]]). : Emigrants are under [[:Category: Migration]] ([[https://plus.wikitree.com/function/WTWebCategoryNavigate/Category.htm?category=Migration Navigate]]). : Migrants "from... to..." categories, following both Immigration and Emigration paths, are categorized under both the Immigrants and Emigrants hierarchies. See [[#FAQs|FAQs (below)]] for additional information. In addition to Colonial America, Immigrants, the Colony-level "Immigrants" and "Emigrants" categories are categorized under the appropriate Colony-level location and Colonists categories. For example: : | [[:Category:Colonial America, Immigrants]]
: | [[:Category: Maryland Colonists]]
: | [[:Category: Province of Maryland]] : > | [[:Category:Province of Maryland, Immigrants]] : > | [[:Category: Province of Maryland, Emigrants] ''not yet created' The three parent categories also serve to ensure that the Migration categories are easily found by those using categories to look for their ancestors. The Colony-level Immigrants categories are mid-level container categoriesSee [[#FAQs|FAQs (above)]] for quick definitions. for "Immigrants from..." categories, which are mid-level container categories for the "Migrants from... to..." categories. The Colony-level Emigrants categories are also mid-level container categories (see more [[#ColonialMigrant|below]]). {| cellpadding="8" border="1" !Colony!!Immigrants

== FAQs == '''Question''': What does ''mid-level category'', ''landing-level category'', etc. mean?
'''Answer''': See the Categorization Project's [[Help:Categorization Glossary|glossary]], but in a nutshell: : ''Top-level categories'' are for categories and pages relevant to the category; no people profiles. : ''Landing-level categories'' are where people profiles are categorized. : ''Mid-level categories'' are container categories that allow people profiles if they don't fit in one of the subcategories. : ''Container categories''... well all categories are technically container categories, but the term usually means the category is primarily for collecting a narrow range of subcategories and related space pages. For example, [[:Category: Jamestown Colony Ships]] is a top-level container category - people profiles are categorized to the specific ship they sailed on; [[:Category: US Southern Colonists]] is a landing-level container category for the Colony-level Colonists categories. '''Question''': Is it ok/correct to have both Immigrant and Emigrant categories on a profile? For example, someone arrives in Virginia from Kent – the two migration categories would be [[:Category: Colony of Virginia, Immigrants from England]] and [[:Category: Kent, Emigrants]].
'''Answer''': If you know both locations, use the "Migrants from... to..." category. For example:
[[:Category: Migrants from Kent to Colony of Virginia]]. '''Question''': Where can I find existing categories?
'''Answer''': Click the [Navigate] links in the [[#table|table above]]. '''Question''': If a category does not exist, can I create one?
'''Answer''': Yes. If you're not comfortable creating the category, post a comment to this page with the WikiTree ID of the person who needs the category and the from/to information (that information should also be supported in the profile's biography, but we need it in the comment just to ensure we create the correct category for you!). The Categorization Project has a tool to make creating a landing-level category easy: http://mcg.harrislineage.com/index2.html
Just put in the country and the "Admin Entity" in the boxes. The "Immigration Details" would be '''Colonial America''' for the "Country" and the Colony-level location (see the first column in the [[#table|table above]]) for the "Admin Entity". For example: : Emigration Details :: Country:* England
:: Admin Entity: Essex : Immigration Details :: Country:* Colonial America
:: Admin Entity: Province of Maryland The page that opens will show the correct Emigration and Immigration paths. The example shows the following Immigration Path: : [[:Category:Migration]] : | [[:Category:Colonial America, Immigrants]] :: | [[:Category:Province of Maryland, Immigrants]] ::: | [[:Category:Province of Maryland, Immigrants from England]] :::: | [[:Category:Migrants from Essex to Province of Maryland]] '''{{Blue|<< ''people profiles go here'' }}''' ::''Note: The Migrants category currently shows Red because it has not yet been created. - ls/6 Sept 2020'' The page also includes a "CategoryInfoBox Migration" button that provides a template you can use to create the category. For this example, it was :{{CategoryInfoBox Migration
:|fromCountry= England
:|fromEntity= Essex
:|toCountry= Colonial America
:|toEntity= Province of Maryland
:}} See [[Space: Migration Category Structure|Migration Category Structure]] for more information. == Colony-to-Colony Migration == WikiTree's Migration Category Structure covers migration between countries, with the "Migration from... to..." categories using a more specific "from" location than a country. The Project's Colony-level Emigrants categories - for Maryland, Virginia, Carolina, and Georgia - are intended to categorize migration of colonists among those four colonies, with subcategories showing movement between colonies (rather than a more specific location for the "from"). Those subcategories are [will be] found under the Colony-level Emigrants categories. Currently, the plan is to have North and South Carolina included in the Carolina categories, to make the categories easier to use.Although the Province of Carolina was not officially divided into North and South Carolina until 1712, the terms were used prior to that date. The Colony-to-Colony Migration categories can (and should) be used in conjunction with location categories and Colonists categories. The Colonists categories allow the project to categorize profiles within its scope by where an immigrant first settled or where the colonist was born. However, colonists frequently did not confine themselves to just one colony, and the Project's "Emigrants" hierarchy allows for further categorization: * [Category: Province of Maryland, Emigrants] ** [Category: Migrants from Province of Maryland to Colony of Virginia] ** [Category: Migrants from Province of Maryland to Province of Carolina] ** [Category: Migrants from Province of Maryland to Province of Georgia] * [Category: Colony of Virginia, Emigrants] ** [Category: Migrants from Colony of Virginia to Province of Maryland] ** [Category: Migrants from Colony of Virginia to Province of Carolina] ** [Category: Migrants from Colony of Virginia to Province of Georgia] * [Category: Province of Carolina, Emigrants] ** [Category: Migrants from Province of Carolina to Province of Maryland] ** [Category: Migrants from Province of Carolina to Colony of Virginia] ** [Category: Migrants from Province of Carolina to Province of Georgia] * [Category: Province of Georgia, Emigrants] ** [Category: Migrants from Province of Georgia to Province of Maryland] ** [Category: Migrants from Province of Georgia to Colony of Virginia] ** [Category: Migrants from Province of Georgia to Province of Carolina] :Parent categories for the Colony-level Emigrants categories are [[:Category:Colonial America, Immigrants]] and the corresponding Colony-level Colonists and location categories. Parent categories for the colony-to-colony "Migrants from... to..." categories are the "Province/Colony of xx, Emigrants" (xx being the "from" colony) and "Province/Colony of xx, Immigration" (xx being the "to" colony). == Use of Stickers with Colonists, Ship, Migration, and Location Categories == '''Colonists categories''' should be chosen based on where the person was born or where the immigrant first settled (not where the ship landed). A profile should only have one Colonists category, which can be added using the project sticker, such as the following: : {{US Southern Colonist Sticker|Maryland}} : See the [[Template: US Southern Colonist Sticker|template page for the sticker]] for details. '''Ship categories''' should be added as appropriate. See [[:Category: Southern Colony Ships]] [[:Category: Chesapeake Colony Ships]], and [[:Category: Jamestown Colony Ships]]. : Contact the Project's [[Space: US Southern Colonies Categories Team|Categories Team]] if you cannot find the ship you are looking for. : There is not a sticker specifically for ships, but both the Migrating Ancestor and Nonmigrating Ancestor stickers could be used (more information about those stickers are included on the [[Space: US Southern Colonies Stickers|US Southern Colonies Stickers page]]). '''Migration categories''' can be used to further categorize colonists of Maryland, Virginia, the Carolinas, and Georgia: * the Immigrants hierarchy to categorize colonists by colony and country, or by a more specific country location * the Emigrants hierarchy to categorize a colonist by subsequent migration between those colonies. : The Migrating Ancestor and Nonmigrating Ancestor stickers just mentioned (described on the [[Space: US Southern Colonies Stickers|US Southern Colonies Stickers page]]) could be used to illustrate either migration. '''Location categories''' should be used to cover where the person lived and died and was born and married. And while location categories should be used for all relevant locations, it is usually more helpful to include the Ship category instead of the ship's landing location. : Any of the stickers mentioned previously could be used as a visual for a particular location. Stickers should be used sparingly on colonial profiles. '''Note''': [[Help: Stickers]] advises no more that five stickers, and says that three is better. If you need to reduce the number of stickers, look at the importance of what the sticker is highlighting and which stickers best illustrate the text. Remember that it is the categories that the Project's [[Space: US Southern Colonies Colonial Teams|Colonial Teams]] use to help them identify profiles for people within their scope - primarily the Colony-level Colonists categories, which are added by the project sticker when a colony switch is used. If you remove a project sticker that uses a switch, be sure to add the corresponding category. For example, if you remove {{US Southern Colonist Sticker|North Carolina}}, add [[:Category: North Carolina Colonists|[[Category: North Carolina Colonists]]]]. ----

Its premiere was announced in G2G on 2 November: https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/1132044/hear-hear-check-out-the-news-page-southern-colonies-project ~ [[Noland-165|Liz Shifflett]], [[Space: US Southern Colonies News Page|News Page]] Editor (the "I" in the articles), from 29 October 2020 == December News == : '''Project Re-launch''': The organization of the re-launched project continues. Of note: * Two new Teams. The [[Space:US Southern Colonies Province of Carolina Team |Province of Carolina Team]] now covers before 1712 and two new teams, for the [[Space:US Southern Colonies Province of North Carolina (1712-1776) Team |Province of North Carolina]] and the [[Space:US Southern Colonies Province of South Carolina (1712-1776) Team |Province of South Carolina]], cover from 1712 to 4 July 1776 (which is the end of the colonial period for WikiTree categorization and database error purposes). * Retirement of "Topical Teams" and the "Founding Families Team". Because of the structure of the US Southern Colonies Project, having topical teams such as Founding Families separate from the Colonial Teams was a duplication of efforts, so that team (previously the Surnames Team) was retired. The Jamestown Team was transferred to the Colonial Teams group and the Topical Teams group was also retired. * Legacy pages. The [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_ Categories Team|Categories Team]] continues its work on identifying project pages and categorizing active pages either under the appropriate Colony-level category or the [[:Category:US Southern Colonies Project |US Southern Colonies Project category]]; inactive pages, including legacy pages (created as part of the previous iteration of the US Southern Colonies Project but no longer within the scope of the project) are now categorized under [[:Category: US Southern Colonies Inactive Project Pages]].
''Note - Other projects that would like to take over management of legacy pages, please contact [[Noland-165|Liz Shifflett]] (project co-leader and Categories Team Leader).'' : '''Managed Profiles''': The [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Managed Profiles Teams|Managed Profiles Teams]] continue to work their way through profiles displaying the US Southern Colonies project box but which are not managed by the project.

If anyone is interested in heading up either of those teams, please get in touch with [[Athey-67|Darlene Athey-Hill]], project co-leader and [[Space: US Southern Colonies Profile Improvement Teams|Profile Improvement Teams]] Project Coordinator, to discuss.
{{Red|News Flash}} - As of 23 January 2021, the Bio Builders Team has a Leader! (Preview from February News: it's [[Stephenson-2354|Beth Stephenson]]. Welcome Beth!) == November News == '''Project Coordinator for Managed Profiles Teams''': Woo-hoo! The last Project Coordinator position, for [[Space:US Southern Colonies Managed Profiles Teams|Managed Profiles Teams]] has been filled by [[Smith-32867|Jillaine Smith]]. She is already Team Leader of the [[Space:US Southern Colonies Pre 1700 Team|Pre-1700 Team]] and has good news to report (see the next article). Thank you Jillaine! '''PPP and Project Management''': Protecting a project-managed profile ("locking" it, or adding "PPP" [project-protected profile]) is one way to add an extra level of protection to project-managed profiles that reflect the hard work of descendants, researchers, and project volunteers. WikiTree guidelines require that any profile displaying the PPP banner must also have a project as a manager & that the corresponding project box also be displayed. (See [[Help:Project-Managed Profiles]] and [[Help:Project_Protection]] for details.) The PPP banner is in the upper right of a profile on a large screen, but following the text of the profile if viewed on your phone; project boxes are displayed above the "Biography" heading; stickers are displayed below that heading. The same guidelines require that a project account and the corresponding project box be used together. A shorthand equation that could be used for these guidelines is "if PA, then PB and vice versa; if PPP, then PA + PB". Because the US Southern Colonies Project went dormant about the same time the WikiTree PPP/PA+PB guidelines were clarified, we have a huge backlog of profiles that need reviewing: either the profiles were protected before the current guidelines were clarified or they are protected under a different project and really fall under the scope of the US Southern Colonies Project. There are also some that are no longer within the project's scope, which was narrowed when the US Southern Colonies Project was re-launched in May to just Maryland, Virginia, the Carolinas (including colonial North and South Carolina) and Georgia. The two [[Space:US Southern Colonies Managed Profiles Teams|US Southern Colonies Managed Profiles Teams]] are divided based on the year of birth - [[Space:US Southern Colonies Pre 1700 Team|Pre-1700 Team]] and [[Space:US Southern Colonies 1701-1776 Team|1700-1776 Team]] (an easy check is whether or not you need pre-1700 certification to work on the profile). The [[Space:US Southern Colonies Pre 1700 Team|Pre-1700 Team]], led by Jillaine Smith, has made great progress in converting to the US Southern Colonies Project most of the pre-1700 profiles previously managed by the [[Project:Virginia|Virginia Project]] (which picked them up over the past couple of years; now the Virginia Project is back to covering "pre-USA" profiles of people born on or after 4 July 1776 - for WikiTree purposes, the colonial period ends at that date). The [[Space:US Southern Colonies Managed Profiles Teams|Managed Profiles Teams]] continue to plug away at our long list. If you'd like to help us review these profiles, please contact either [[Smith-32867|Jillaine]] ([[Space:US Southern Colonies Pre 1700 Team|pre-1700]]) or [[Douglass-990|David Douglass]] ([[Space:US Southern Colonies 1701-1776 Team|1700-1776 Team]]), or both, about joining a Managed Profiles team. If you're not yet a member of the US Southern Colonies Project, please see [https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/1124065 this G2G post]. If you know of a profile that you think should be managed or protected by the [[Project:US Southern Colonies |US Southern Colonies Project]], please fill out [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSd0RONPbhrsKjFZm4eOgWp7mD9Lto-Agr1fJO8Gj2qDF5XU8A/viewform this form] and we'll take a look. '''What's a project box?''' Since you ask this is the US Southern Colonies project box:
{{US Southern Colonist}} {{US Southern Colonist}} added above == Biography == (below any categories - see [[Help:Biographies]]) will add it to the profile. If it is displayed, then the [[WikiTree-24|project account]] needs to be a manager. Not all profiles need to be managed by a project, but what if you have a profile that you'd like to show falls within the scope of the project? We have a project sticker for that! :{{US Southern Colonist Sticker}} {{US Southern Colonist Sticker}} will add the sticker to the profile (stickers go '''below''' the Biography heading). The sticker also adds the same category as the project box: [[:Category: US Southern Colonists]]. The project's [[Space: US Southern Colonies Categories Team |Categories Team]], with the help of [[Space: US Southern Colonies Colonial Teams|Colonial Teams]], is working its way through this category and adding a "colony switch" to the sticker, so that the profile is moved from [[:Category: US Southern Colonists|US Southern Colonists]] to the colony-level Colonists category. The goal is that all profiles in that category by way of the sticker only will be moved out, unless we only know that the person came to America but not where they settled. See the [[Template:US Southern Colonist Sticker|sticker's template page]] for a table showing the colony-switch coding and resulting sticker. That template page also shows the Project's "needs=" parameters, which can be used with either the sticker or the project box to add a project maintenance category. While both the sticker and the project box support "needs=" parameters, the project box only supports those parameters (not colony switches). The project currently has five needs parameters that can be used: Biography, Merge Attention, Relationship Review, Research, and Sources. When you use one, the profile is added to the corresponding maintenance category (they're listed under [[:Category:US_Southern_Colonies_Project_Maintenance_Categories|US Southern Colonies Project Maintenance Categories]]). To suggest an additional parameter and more information about using the existing ones, see the [[Space: US Southern Colonies Categories Team#Maintenance|Maintenance Categories section]] of the [[Space: US Southern Colonies Categories Team|Categories Team]]'s page. : ''update on parameters'' - as of 3 April 2021, the project has eight needs parameters. The additional three: Location Research, Project Attention, and Ref Tags. == October News == '''Project Coordinator for Membership Team''': Speaking of the [https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/1124065 G2G post about joining the project] - the latest one was posted by [[Moody-4306|Greta Moody]], who joined the Project's Leadership Team this month as Project Coordinator of the [[Space: US Southern Colonies Membership Team|Membership Team]].

There are three types of suggestions - Error, Warnings, and Hints. See more [[Help:Suggestions#Suggestion_Types|here]]. You can help with the project's 450+ suggestions by searching for your WikiTree ID on the project's list ([https://plus.wikitree.com/function/WTWebUser/Suggestions.htm?UserID=11613796 here]). You can also search by colony: there are only a few instances of "Georgia", a couple dozen hits on "Maryland", under a hundred for "Carolina", and Virginia needs its own Data Doctors group. While you can work on suggestions whether or not you are an "official" Data Doctor, both the [[Project:Data Doctors|Data Doctors Project]] and our Southern Colonies [[Space:US Southern Colonies Data Doctors Team|Data Doctors Team]] are always looking to recruit new members (and Team members must also be members of the Data Doctors Project). : ''[[Space:US Southern Colonies Arborists Team|Arborists Team]]'' - Speaking of recruiting... Team Leader Shirley Dalton has put a call out to the Arborists Project seeking members with an interest in the southern colonies who would like to help clean up and merge profiles from Virginia, Maryland, the Carolinas, and Georgia who lived prior to 1776. If you're an Arborist, or are interested in becoming one, please contact [[Strutton-11|Shirley]] (note that Arborists Team members must also be Arborists Project members). : And don’t forget to check on merges involving profiles on your own watchlist: click [[Special: BrowseMatches|here]], then select "My Watchlist" (top right in the pyramid of choices). Also check on "Pending Merges Initiated by Me" - the choice below “My Watchlist”. I just did and found over a dozen of the merges that I had proposed now had default approval. Remember that not all merges that receive default approval (and not even all those approved by a profile manager) are necessarily correct. Always re-read the profiles and any comments before completing a merge. '''Congratulations!''' : To [[Spratlin-29|Ken Spratlin]], who did the lion's share of the work in adding the now-required colony parameter to the 4000+ profiles with either the project box or project sticker that lacked it just a few short months ago.

See her comment below, posted 24 November. THANK YOU Shirley!! : And thank you to all our project members working toward improving the profiles of southern colonists! '''P.S.''' - To all project members: If you haven't already, please switch the category on your profile to the (relatively) new [[:Category:US Southern Colonies Project Members]] (from [[:Category:US Southern Colonies Project]], so that category can truly be a "top-level category", which means it has no people profiles). '''P.P.S.''' - Happy Holidays! :'''News Posted as a Comment''', 24 November 2021 : I've been working since September on updating the WikiTree Checklist of Jamestowne Society Qualifying Ancestors. This list includes pre-1700 individuals who were stockholders in the London Company or the Virginia Company; owned land or lived on Jamestown Island; resided in Virginia at the time of the 1624/25 muster or earlier; served as elected or appointed officers in Virginia; was an Anglican Church minister or an official Indian Interpreter. Many WikiTree members trace their ancestry back to one of these people. It has taken me a while, but I finally finished reviewing the list from A-Y (there are no Zs). It was quite an adventure. I think the most interesting thing I learned was how close-knit a group the early colonists were. The same names kept coming up as neighbors, witnesses to legal documents, marriage partners, etc. There still are quite a few names on the list who have no profiles on WikiTree. If your ancestry goes back to early Virginia, maybe you can add a new profile for some of those we're missing. ~ [[Strutton-11|Shirley (Strutton) Dalton]] :: '''Reply''', 24 November 2021 :: Thank you for this effort!

'''How does activity impact awareness?''' : I mentioned I didn't have anything to share because I haven't been as active as usual. I have found that WikiTree is one of those things that the more you put in, the more you get out.

'''[[Space: US Southern Colonies Membership Team|Membership Team]]''' : Did you get a message from [[Richardson-7161|Mary Richardson]], Project Coordinator for [[Space: US Southern Colonies Membership Team|Membership]], about the '''June Check-In'''? Did you reply? Please do! Mary is coordinating the June 2021 check-in. Many of the projects reorganized in recent years, including the re-launched US Southern Colonies Project, conduct a check-in every 6 months to get feedback about what the project could be doing to improve the experience for its members and also to check that members still want to be active participants in the project. Your feedback is important to the project's Leadership Team! : Don't forget that if you are a project member, the correct category for your profile is [[:Category: US Southern Colonies Project Members]] (this is a relatively recent change, so check your category and add "Members" if you're still in the old category). You can also add the Member sticker to your profile: {{Member|Southern Colonies}} '''More Leadership Team Announcements!''' : Last month's news was "Leadership Roles Filling Up" as we welcomed [[Clarke-12398|Kelly Clarke]] as Team Leader of the Pre-1700 and 1700-1776 Managed Profiles Teams and [[Richardson-7161|Mary Richardson]] as our new Project Coordinator for the Membership Team. : This month's news is '''We're Full!''' I am delighted to make the following announcements: * [[McClain-3310|Scott McClain]] is Project Coordinator, [[Space:US Southern Colonies Managed Profiles Teams|Managed Profiles Teams]] * [[Spratlin-1|Ken Spratlin]] is Team Leader, [[Space:US Southern Colonies Categories Team|Categories Team]] : Other news about the project's Leadership Team is news from me, [[Noland-165|Liz Shifflett]]. I have stepped down as co-leader of the US Southern Colonies Project. I will miss being on the Leadership Team but the project is in good hands, and I am still an active member - e.g., editor of the News Page!

If you're a badged Project Leader and would be interested in joining the project as a co-leader, please contact co-leader [[Athey-67|Darlene Athey-Hill]]. While all of the project's leadership positions may be filled, the project could really use another co-leader... or two!

'''What Does PPP Mean for Management of a Profile?''' : If you're new to WikiTree, you might not know that project-protected profiles - referred to as "PPP" and marked with the Project Protected banner - did not always require that a project be a manager, although it was recommended that the profile identify which project had protected it, usually by displaying the appropriate project box. (You can always search in the Changes to see who protected it - editing a profile to add or remove PPP is listed as "edited the Locked Status".) When WikiTree's guidelines were clarified in late 2017, US Southern Colonies Project had THOUSANDS of profiles displaying the project box, many of which were also PPP. Shorthand for the clarified guidelines is "If PB, then PA and vice versa; if PPP, then PB & PA" (PB= project box; PA= project account - US Southern Colonies' is [[WikiTree-24]]). : June's News included information about the remaining 3000 or so profiles that had displayed the project box having those templates converted to stickers by EditBot. It also included the News Flash that reviewing those profiles was completed on 9 June. This was the culmination of much dedicated work, spearheaded by [[Smith-32867|Jillaine Smith]] and [[Douglass-990|David Douglass]], joined more recently by [[Spratlin-1|Ken Spratlin]]. Congratulations y'all! : However, there are still quite a lot of profiles that are PPP without the support of a project, and work continues to review those profiles (for lists of these profile, see the following wikitree+ pages: [https://www.softdata.si/wt/ProjectState_20210627/WikiTree36/7_1500-1699_0.htm for 1500-1699] and [https://www.softdata.si/wt/ProjectState_20210627/WikiTree36/7_1700-1799_0.htm for 1700-1799]). : If you run across a profile that is protected and that you think should be managed by the US Southern Colonies Project, please fill out the Managed Profile Request form - see [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Managed_Profile_Requests|this page]] for more information and a link to the form. If you think it does not need to be protected, or managed by a project, let a Project Leader know (any project member with a [https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Special:Badges&b=supervisor Project Leader badge], which includes me - [[Noland-165|Liz]] - or you can post to G2G from the profile). '''New Project Category''' : Check out the project's latest category - [[:Category: US Southern Colonies Family Studies|US Southern Colonies Family Studies]]. It is for WikiTree free-space pages that take a closer look at a family or individual. The category page has a link to the WikiTree space page for [[Space:Sources-Family_Genealogies|Family Genealogies]] - published works that may have information such as wills and other records, or give you leads on where to look for such records. Remember - just like online databases of family trees, published family trees are only as reliable as the sources they cite! '''US Southern Colonies Project Reliable Sources Pages''' : Speaking of reliable sources... the [[Space: US Southern Colonies Colonial Teams |Colonial Teams]] now each have a separate "Reliable Sources" page, and each page has quick-links to them all: ::{| cellpadding="8" Valign="top" |- |colspan="4" align="center"|''Quick-links for Sources pages''

Mary is one of the founding members of the original US Southern Colonies Project, has led the Jamestown Team since the beginning, when it was a sub-project, and leads the Carolina, North Carolina, and South Carolina Teams. She has also conducted several check-ins and will be conducting the project's June 2021 check-in - the third for the re-launched project. (I conducted the January check-in... finishing up just yesterday[!!] and am ever so grateful that Mary volunteered for the PC Membership position in time to conduct the June check-in.) : The project's teams are listed [[Space: US Southern Colonies Teams|here]]. '''Project-Preferred Locations''': [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Project_Location_Preferences|Location Preferences page]] : [[Trtnik-2|Aleš Trtnik]] has been working with projects on refining locations used in the datafields for profiles, in order to improve searching by location. New database suggestions included ones when "project-preferred locations" are not used. Previously these were only listed in the suggestions for orphaned profiles, but that restriction has been lifted. The [[Project: Data Doctors|Data Doctors Project page]] includes a link for the weekly report, where you'll find a table of suggestions, including Birth (618), Death (648), and Marriage (678) Location Country "not preferred by project". : [[Stuewe-5|Kathy Zipperer]], of the [[Project:US Southern Colonies |US Southern Colonies Project]]'s [[Space: US Southern Colonies Data Doctors Team|Data Doctors Team]], worked with Aleš to provide our input and helped with the development of the project's [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Project_Location_Preferences|Location Preferences page]]. Thanks Kathy! '''New Pages for Maintenance Categories''' : Thanks to great work by [[Spratlin-1|Ken Spratlin]], we have a one-stop reference for Maintenance categories AND criteria for project-managed profiles! : Take a look: [[Space: US Southern Colonies Project Maintenance Categories |US Southern Colonies Project Maintenance Categories]]. : That page doesn't include a new maintenance category that ''has already been emptied and deleted'' - Category: US Southern Colonies Potential. The category was created 20 May 2021 and EditBot added 2000 profiles to it on that date. These were the profiles that remained after more than a year of work by the Managed Profiles Teams to resolve thousands of profiles that were incorrectly displaying the project box (if a profile displays a project box, the corresponding project must be a manager). Ken Spratlin lent his support to Jillaine Smith's unflagging efforts in the past month or so, and they continue to review these profiles to check that profiles within the scope of the project needing protection by a project, or just project management, are picked up by the project. ''News Flash: All the profiles in the category were processed by early June! This item was updated to remove the link to the category so that the category could be deleted on 9 June 2021.'' '''Project-Managed Profiles Page and Updated Managed Profile Request Form''' : If you run across a profile for a Maryland, Virginia, Carolina, or Georgia colonist that you think might need to be a project-managed profile, or a project-protected profile (PPP), we have a page for that now too! Please see [[Space: US Southern Colonies Project-Managed Profiles|US Southern Colonies Project-Managed Profiles]], which includes [[Space: US Southern Colonies Project-Managed Profiles#Criteria|Criteria]] for both. (And I'd like to thank Ken Spratlin for his excellent rewrite of the first draft of this page!) : The Managed Profile Request form, and the [[Space: US Southern Colonies Managed Profile Requests|Managed Profile Requests page]] that links to it, have been updated to reflect the clarified criteria listed on the [[Space: US Southern Colonies Project-Managed Profiles|Project-Managed Profiles page]]. '''THANK YOU''' : I just want to give an extra shout-out to all of our project members. Since joining the project as a co-leader in October, I have been working closely with the project's Leadership Team and am SO appreciative of all that they do. In finishing up the January check-in so that I could have a squared-away membership list to turn over to Mary for the June check-in, I saw just how much work all of our project members devote to improving colonial profiles. Thanks so much to all of you for all that you do - for the project and for WikiTree! ~ [[Noland-165|Liz Shifflett]] == May News == '''Project-specific Editing Guidance Published''' If you're working on a profile for a pre-1776 colonist in Maryland, Virginia, the Carolinas, or Georgia and have a question about how to do something, check out these pages : [[Space:US Southern Colonies Project Editing Guidance |US Southern Colonies Project Editing Guidance]] &
[[Space: US Southern Colonies Project Profile Example|US Southern Colonies Project Profile Example]] If you don't see the answer you need, or a link to where to find an answer, post a comment on the project's [[Space:US Southern Colonies Project Editing Guidance |Editing Guidance]] page. We got the pages finished just in time for the Clean-a-Thon & made the [https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/1225114/ announcement in G2G] - "off schedule" from the monthly News Page update - about "US Southern Colonies Project has some News you maybe can use during the Clean-A-Thon!" Feedback from those who had occasion to use the pages during the thon has been positive. Speaking of Clean-a-Thon participants... '''Clean-a-Thon 2021''' ''Virtual US Southern Colonies Project Team'' : Fun facts: * 500 registered (647 participants) out of 806,834 WikiTree members. * 34 participants out of 162 [[Project: US Southern Colonies |US Southern Colonies Project]] members. : Not a fair comparison, since project members are active and probably a lot of the 800,000+ WikiTree members are not. Still, 34 out of 162 isn't half (fifth?) bad. Here's our Virtual Team (and their IRL team): # [[Sheppard-2686|Pip Sheppard]] - Southern Super Sweepers # [[Stuewe-5|Kathy Zipperer]] - Southern Super Sweepers # [[Craig-4574|Sandy Patak]] - Team Virginia (co-captain) # [[Luker-573|Patty LaPlante]] - Team Roses # [[Butter-100|Virginia Fields]] - Southern Super Sweepers # [[Vincent-18|Bill Vincent]] - Team Virginia # [[Popp-547|Kelly Kley]] - Cornbread Catchers # [[Morton-7125|LaMyra Morton]] - Team Missouri # [[Mason-10934|Sarah Mason]] - Twisted Thistles # [[Athey-67|Darlene Athey-Hill]] - Musty Dusty # [[Noland-165|Liz Shifflett]] - Team Virginia # [[Mitchell-17863|Sherrie Mitchell]] - Team Virginia # [[DeSpain-617|Laura DeSpain]] - Mighty Oaks # [[Boy-41|Emily Holmberg]] - Tree Nuts # [[Brady-1418|Chris Brady]] - Team Virginia # [[Wildes-118|Tara Wildes]] - Cornbread Catchers # [[Stumpenhaus-1|Cathie Stumpenhaus]] - Southern Super Sweepers # [[Sturdivant-606|Marsha Sturdivant]] - Southern Super Sweepers # [[Richardson-7161|Mary Richardson]] - Cornbread Catchers # [[Gaulden-7|Mags Gaulden]] - Cornbread Catchers # [[Foster-86|William K.

You had to register in advance to sign up for a team and be eligible to win a T-shirt (winners were announced during the Hangouts). Those participants noted as "unaffiliated" had not pre-registered, but if any WikiTree member corrected a suggestion & updated the status for that suggestion over the 72 hours that the thon ran, their numbers were included. If you caught any of the Hangouts where the "No-Name Team" was mentioned, that's them. They came in 15th, by the way. : '''So how did we do?''' Drum roll... we cleaned '''23,188''' suggestions, which puts our Virtual Team in '''3rd place''' (between Team Roses with 30,112 & Southern Super Sweepers, with 21,384). : To see numbers by Team & User, [[https://plus.wikitree.com/Challenges/CleanAThon/TeamUser.htm click here]]. To see numbers by User, [[https://plus.wikitree.com/Challenges/CleanAThon/User.htm click here]]. : Everyone I heard from who participated had a great time. The team commraderie and chats - by team and every 4 hours in the Hangouts - are not only fun but also educational. I've been a WikiTree member since 2012 and I learn something every thon (usually many things). : See [https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/1228107/have-you-checked-out-the-clean-a-thon-wrap-up this G2G post] for more wrap-up info - I'll give one bit away: 233,558 suggestions cleaned!! : See {{Tag_Link|Challenges}} for G2G posts about challenges happening between the thons. '''New Project Maintenance Categories''' : During the Clean-a-Thon, we encountered a lot of profiles within the project's scope that could really use some TLC. Because of the time crunch, we wanted a way to "tag" them so we could come back later to work on them, but we discovered that many didn't fit in one of our existing [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Categories_Team#Maintenance|Maintenance categories]] - or fit in too many. So we now have two new ones: * [[:Category:US Southern Colonies Project Needs Style Review]], for profiles that need to be updated to meet current WikiTree guidelines and the project's new [[Space: US Southern Colonies Project Editing Guidance|editing guidance]]. * [[:Category:US Southern Colonies Project Needs Extensive Work]], for profiles that fit in more than three "needs=" categories (the max number that the project box or project sticker can accommodate). '''HELP WANTED''' :We have several positions to be filled, plus a need for a '''Google sheet guru''' (two different sheets needing a "keeper" - contact [[Smith-32867|Jillaine]] for the Managed Profiles sheet; contact [[Noland-165|Liz]] for the other - a more detailed version of the [[Space: US Southern Colonies Project Members|member table]]). : '''Postions''' to be filled (see [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Project_Roles|this page]] for descriptions of the project's PC and TL roles): * Project Coordinator (PC) for [[Space: US Southern Colonies Membership Team|Membership]] ** News Page Editor * PC for [[Space: US Southern Colonies Managed Profiles Teams|Managed Profiles Teams]] ** Team Leader (TL) for [[Space: US Southern Colonies Pre 1700 Team|Pre 1700 Team]] : Also - calling all '''Project Leaders''' (you know who you are, but for everyone else, [[https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Special:Badges&b=supervisor click here]]). Members who are also Project Leaders - * if you'd be interested in joining the project's leadership team as a co-leader, please contact [[Noland-165|Liz]]. * if you're not not interested in taking on a (or another) leadership role but could help now and then with PPP on/off and adding/removing the project account, please contact [[Noland-165|Liz]] or [[Smith-32867|Jillaine]]. Thanks to [[https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Special:Badges&b=southern_colonies all of our project members]] for everything you do to improve the project, profiles, and WikiTree! == April News == It has been a quiet month. Contact the [[Noland-165|editor]] if you have something you'd like covered! '''Colony of Virginia''' : The project has a new page: [[Space:Virginia_General_Assembly_(pre-1643)| Virginia General Assembly (pre-1643)]]. The page lists burgesses who attended the first General Assembly in 1619 and those attending the first bicameral assembly, held in 1642/3. == March News == '''Connectors Team''' Wonderful news - [[Craig-4574|Sandy Patak]], [[Space: US Southern Colonies Colonial Teams|Colonial Teams]] Project Coordinator and [[Space: US Southern Colonies Province of Georgia Team|Province of Georgia]] Team Leader - is now also the [[Space: US Southern Colonies Connectors Team |Connectors]] Team Leader. Thank you Sandy! '''Province of Georgia Team''' : ''Report by [[Craig-4574|Sandy Patak]], Team Leader The [[Space: US Southern Colonies Province of Georgia Team|Province of Georgia]] Team Members have been working on profiles for the US Black History Month: Some Team Members have been working with the US Black Heritage's [[Space:US_Black_Heritage:_Connecting_Challenge|Connecting Challenge]] while other Team Members have been working on adding profiles to the Province of Georgia Slave Owners and Slaves categories for the Parishes. We have added three new Team Members: expert Scottish researcher, [[MacIntosh-242|Lynda Pollitt]], to help out with the shiploads of [[Category:Georgia_Scottish_Highlanders|Highland Scots]] that came to Georgia; [[Armstrong-14418|Suzanne Howe]] who brings a lot of knowledge with the Brown, Clay, Armstrong & Willis families; and most recently, [[Tolleson-100|Paul Tolleson]], whose ancestor [[Tolleson-88|John Daniel Tolleson]] was one of the many pioneers who moved to Georgia in the late 1700s. The Province of Georgia now has an official [[Space:Province_of_Georgia_Reliable_Sources|Reliable Sources]] page! With the help of [[Smith-32867|Jillaine Smith]] - the sourcing extraordinaire - this page provides one location to find quality sourcing resources along with advice on what to avoid using as a source. '''Diverse Group''' - Interests of our project members are in no way confined to the Colonial South! I check out the project's [https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Special:NetworkFeed&who=WikiTree-24&watchlist=1 Family Activity Feed] (activity on US Southern Colonies Project profiles) regularly, along with the [https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Special:NetworkFeed&badge=southern_colonies Badge activity feed] (activity by US Southern Colonies Project members), and I'm always proud to see project members collaborating on project profiles but also proud to see how many project members are active in other projects. Are you active in other projects? Which ones? Post a comment here & let us know. At one point, I had responsibilities in so many projects that I had to put a "My Projects" table on my profile. Happily, I'm not spread quite so thin these days, but I do co-lead the Magna Carta Project as well as US Southern Colonies Project. And wouldn't you know, I do that Project's newsletter also. An article I wrote last month might be of interest to y'all too: : "Did you know? ... that WikiTree has an [[Project:WikiTree_Apps|Apps Project]]? Producing all manner of cool apps!" (in the Magna Carta Project's [https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/1180450/ February Newsletter]) '''Arborists Challenge''' Part of the diversity is driven by a couple of our [[Space: US Southern Colonies Profile Improvement Teams|Profile Improvement Teams]] requiring membership in the corresponding project. For example, members of the [[Space: US Southern Colonies Arborists Team|Arborists Team]] are required to be active members of the [[Project:Arborists |Arborists Project]]. Currently, the Arborists Project has a year-long challenge underway - the [[Space:Arborists_Unmerged_Match_Challenge|Unmerged Match Challenge]]. You can help by checking on the unmerged matches you've set (go to [[Special:BrowseMatches]] and click the link for "Unmerged Matches Initiated by Me").You might be surprised by some of the pairs listed - if you proposed a merge and someone else postponed it (changed it to an Unmerged Match), it will show up on your list. (I was just reminded of this, since a merge I'd proposed showed up new on my unmerged match list - which I've gotten whittled down from about 70 to 50. Clearing an Unmerged Match can take some time, since the purpose of postponing a proposed merge is to allow time for research.) This Challenge might be something the Colonial Teams could help with too. Check with your [[Space: US Southern Colonies Teams|Team Leader]] if you'd be interested in spearheading Team participation in the Arborists Challenge. '''Locations in "Place" Datafields''' Speaking of challenges... the Clean-a-Thon is fast approaching. It will be 23-26 April this year. Registration opens 10 March, so look for that notice in G2G under the tag {{Tag_Link|Challenges}} This year there will be a lot more location-related suggestions to clean up, as new DBEs about a location's country were added in February (see [[Space:Data_Doctors_Report_2021-02-21|this Data Doctors Report]]). I recently sent an e-mail to the Google Groups for both the [[Project:Virginia |Virginia Project]] and US Southern Colonies Project and wanted to share it here too, with a bit added - prompted by the discussion in the US Southern Colonies Google Group. - Thanks to everyone contributing to that discussion! With the new DBE suggestions about place names, I wanted to remind folks working on profiles with Virginia locations to please include County or Parish if that information is known. The reason: Virginia has parishes, counties, and towns with the same name that may not be in the same location. For example, from [[:Category:Albemarle_County%2C_Virginia_Colony|Albemarle County, Virginia Colony]]: :There is an [[:Category: Albemarle Parish, Virginia Colony|Albemarle Parish]] that never served Albemarle County (Albemarle Parish served Surry and Sussex Counties from 1738 to 1753 and from 1753 to after 1785, respectively). Also be mindful of using "Colony of Virginia" for pre-USA locations. In some cases, dropping "Colony" changes the location - for example, there were two Rappahannock Counties that did not cover the same area. One existed before the United States and one after. Also note that while the categories use "Virginia Colony", the preference for the datafields is "Colony of Virginia". :...pre-USA, often seen as "Old Rappahannock" is [[:Category: Rappahannock County, Virginia Colony]] and post-USA, which exists today, is [[:Category: Rappahannock County, Virginia]]. One of Virginia's nicknames is "the Mother of States and Statesmen". Many of its pre-USA counties belong to other states today - such as the 50 counties that broke off to form West Virginia in the 1860s, and 9 counties that became Kentucky in 1792. The space page [[Space:Virginia_Counties_and_Parishes|Virginia Counties and Parishes]] includes sections that cover those counties – * for Kentucky, see [[Space: Virginia Counties and Parishes#1776-1792]] * for West Virginia, see [[Space: Virginia Counties and Parishes##WVa]] The [[Space: Virginia Counties and Parishes#counties|"Virginia Counties" table]] on that page shows more than just counties. The entries show a wealth of information at a glance – the following row is an example: {| border="1" align="center" class="wikitable " style="font-style:; font-size:100%; border: 3px Solid DarkBlue; text-align:center" |- bgcolor="#f7fff7" |- |Rappahannock
''[[:Category: Rappahannock County, Virginia | VA]]'' |'''[[Space: Richmond County, Virginia | Richmond]]'''
''[[:Category: Richmond County, Virginia Colony| Colony]]'' - ''[[:Category: Richmond County, Virginia|VA]]'' - ''[[:Category: Richmond, Virginia|IC]]'' |'''[[Space: Ritchie County, West Virginia | Ritchie]]'''
''[[:Category: Ritchie County, Virginia|VA]] - [[:Category: Ritchie County, West Virginia|WV]]'' |'''[[Space: Roane County, West Virginia | Roane]]'''
''[[:Category: Roane County, Virginia|VA]] - [[:Category: Roane County, West Virginia|WV]]'' |Roanoke
''[[:Category: Roanoke County, Virginia|VA]]'' |} The clickable links for Richmond, Ritchie, and Roane counties go to space pages for those counties. The clickable links for Colony and VA go to the pre-USA and USA categories for those counties; WV goes to the West Virginia category for the county. IC goes to the category for the Independent City of the same name (Virginia currently has 38 Independent Cities – see details on the [[:Category:Independent_Cities%2C_Virginia|Independent Cities, Virginia]] category page). Not all of the parishes that served Virginia counties have a category page, but the ones that do can be found under [[:Category: Virginia Parishes]]. Note that unless a county name is needed to distinguish parishes of the same name, the category name does not include the county. Take a look at Freddie Spradlin's page that shows the history of Virginia's parishes [http://vagenweb.org/parishes.htm here]. His page and the [http://homepages.rootsweb.ancestry.com/~george/countyformations/virginiaformationmaps.html History of County Formations in Virginia 1617-1995] are great references for "what was it called, when" questions. [[Cook-22916|Joe Cook]] shared the following information: : "County formation, particularly in the Carolinas, was a moving target, both in the colonial period and following. South Carolina had parishes, districts, and counties at different times. North Carolina had a mishmash of area designations including judicial districts with the same names as towns - sometimes in the districts and sometimes not. Sometimes the territories of the judicial districts changed. Fortunately, there are tools to decipher this complicated history. For North Carolina, there is an interactive map documenting formation of the governmental entities by date. Similar maps exist for other regions. For North Carolina: [http://www.usgennet.org/usa/nc/state2/amap/nccf.html http://www.usgennet.org/usa/nc/state2/amap/nccf.html]" Joe's post led to the creation of [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Project_Needs_Location_Research|this page]], with a collection of county formation links (thanks for your help with that Joe!). The page is the companion space page for the project's maintenance category: [[:Category: US Southern Colonies Project Needs Location Research]], which is for profiles that need project attention to verify that the location in the datafields and/or text existed at the time the person was living and make sense with the family's known locations/migration routes. If you're working on profiles in [[:Category: US Southern Colonies Project Needs Location Research|that category]] and need help beyond the information on the [[Space:US Southern Colonies Project Needs Location Research|Needs Location Research space page]], you can post a question in G2G (tag it [https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/tag/southern_colonies southern_colonies] and the appropriate colony name as well as [https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/tag/place_names place_names]) or post a comment on a project-managed profile (which will send an e-mail copy to the Project Account Google Group). If the profile is not managed by the project, you could post a comment to the appropriate Team's page (e.g., the [[Space:US Southern Colonies Province of Carolina Team|Province of Carolina Team]] for a question about pre-1712 location in the Carolinas). For a list of colony-level teams, see the [[Space: US Southern Colonies Colonial Teams|Colonial Teams page]] (all project teams are listed on [[Space: US Southern Colonies Teams|this page]]). '''Recruiting Notices''' We've had some positions open up. David Douglass has been filling in as the [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Managed Profiles Teams |Managed Profiles Teams]] Project Coordinator (PC) and the [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Pre 1700 Team|Pre-1700 Team]] Leader following Jillaine's decision to participate only as a Team Member. Contact [[Douglass-990|David]] if you're interested in either position. The [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Membership Team|Membership]] PC position is also available. Contact [[Athey-67|Darlene]], [[Noland-165|Liz]]], or [[Douglass-990|David]] if you're interested - or if you've heard from [[Moody-4306|Greta]] (we're worried, since it's been months since she's been active in WikiTree). The most important task of the Membership PC position is welcoming new members, which includes the following: * Respond to requests to join made via the project's G2G Welcome Post * Confirm that the person is pre-1700 certified, has made at least 100 contributions, and has been on WikiTree for 30+ days * Contact [[Athey-67|Darlene]] to get the person badged * Add person to team pages, membership worksheet, and Google group(s) == February News == '''January Check-in and Membership Boom''' : The 6-month member check-in was intended to be completed in January. Thank you to everyone who responded to the December rollcall e-mail and subsequent poll and check-in request. However, fewer than 50 members (out of about 140) responded, so it's been extended into February. : If you were a member of the project in 2020, please check the table on the [[Space:US Southern Colonies Project Members|US Southern Colonies Project Members page]]. To check in or make corrections, you can post a comment to that page or contact [[Noland-165|Liz]], who's coordinating the January check-in. : Liz will also be updating the table with members who joined in 2021 - give her a week to catch up if you did and you're not yet listed in the table. We had a LOT of new members as the result of our [https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/1172250/ new G2G Welcome post] being featured in WikiTree's newsletter the last Wednesday of January. THANK YOU to all of our members and WELCOME new members! '''Team Updates''' : '''Bio Builders Team''' is delighted to have a Team Leader! [[Stephenson-2354|Beth Stephenson]] recently joined the project, expressing an interest in the Bio Builders Team. When asked if she would accept the position of Team Leader, she said yes! Beth is a researcher who enjoys improving and writing biographies. As she says on her profile page: "I truly enjoy discovering information about my ancestors. I am an active member of the Daughters of the American Revolution. I am also a lifetime member of the Jamestowne Society." Beth is spearheading the project's selection and updating of representative profiles for WikiTree's [[Examples]] page, and the profile of [[Gibbons-3652|Thomas Gibbons (1757-1826)]] was posted 28 January. If you're a project member and interested in joining the Bio Builders Team, post a comment on the [[Space: US Southern Colonies Bio Builders Team|Team page]]. (If you're interested but not a member, answer the project's [https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/1172250/ G2G Welcome post].) : '''Categories Team''' did a bit of work on the project's [[:Category: US Southern Colonies Project Maintenance Categories|US Southern Colonies Project Maintenance Categories]] recently: * adding a table on [[:Category: US Southern Colonies, Unsourced Profiles]] that has links by location and century to WT+ search pages (just click the "Get profiles" button when you get to the search page). * adding categories to support location-specific switches in the {{[[Template: Conflated|Conflated]]}} template. See [[:Category: US Southern Colonies, Conflated Profiles]] for project parameters you can use with the template. : The Unsourced and Conflated categories are added using those templates. The project also has seven maintenance categoriesAs of 3 April 2021, there were eight - Needs Project Attention was added. that can be added using the "needs=" parameter with the project box or project sticker (listed on [[Space: US Southern Colonies Categories|US Southern Colonies Categories]], in the [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Categories#Family_Brick_Walls_.2F_Maintenance_Categories|Family Brick Walls / Mainenance Categories section]]. If you have another maintenance category you'd like to see added through the "needs=" parameter, post a comment on the [[Space: US Southern Colonies Categories Team|Categories Team page]]. Post there if you're interested in joining the team too.Please don't add a needs= parameter that has not been established, or you'll create a "wanted category" (it will display in red) that might not be named in accordance with Categorization Project guidelines or in a way that fits the project as well as it might. Also please don't add a colony switch to the project box, or more than one colony switch to the project sticker: the project box does not support colony switches, and the project sticker is designed to only support one colony. '''Data Doctors Team''': Team Leader [[Boy-41|Emily Holmberg]] canvassed her Team members for the January check-in and had a much better reply rate than the project is having overall: All but one of the Data Doctors replied. Thanks so much for the assist Emily!

'''Quality Assurance News from [[Richardson-7161|Mary Richardson]] and [[Skelton-1756|Betty Norman]]''' : A Carolinas Quality Assurance Team has been in place for a while, consisting of Mary, Betty, and [[Wilder-1162|Carol Wilder]]. Mary and Betty have recently started a Quality Assurance Team for Jamestown profiles. Mary is Team Leader of the Carolina teams - Carolina (to 1712), North Carolina (1712-1776), and South Carolina (1712-1776) - and also of the Jamestown Team. : In medical jargon, quality assurance is the protocols used to ensure Quality Control is performed. That refers to laboratory testing, but businesses use it also to ensure the product has been manufactured according to standards. : Our Quality Assurance Team has used this concept for profiles of colonial settlers of the Carolinas. With it the team evaluated the sources for dead links as well as no sources. Betty Normon and Carol Wilder checked the profiles in the categories of Province of Carolina, Province of North Carolina, and Province of South Carolina for dead links. : The team found many profiles with dead links and either repaired the link or replaced it with another source. If a good source could not be found, they disabled the bad link and added a comment to the citation. They added new sources to profiles which had none. They found many profiles that had no biography, so they wrote biographies, with sources. : This same concept is being used on Jamestown profiles, but is just beginning. In addition to finding bad links, our goal for Jamestown will be to find sources that identify a person as a Jamestown colonist or a Jamestowne Society Qualifying Ancestor and develop a new profile if one doesn't already exist. : If you'd like to help with these efforts, please contact [[Richardson-7161|Mary Richardson]] Team Leader for the Jamestown, Carolina, North Carolina, and South Carolina Teams. == January 2021 News == '''Project Members''': Check your Team! All project members should have joined at least one team (see the [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Teams|list of teams]]). Please check the team page & if you haven't yet added something about your interests next to your name in the members list, please do. And Thanks! '''Check Your Watchlist''': Whether or not you're a project member, you can easily help with project goals by checking your watchlist for profiles that are categorized as [[:Category: US Southern Colonists|US Southern Colonists]]. That category is added by both the project box and the project sticker. If you are the manager or on the trusted list for a profile in [[:Category: US Southern Colonists]], when you click the [Limit to Watchlist] option at upper right of the category page, only those profiles will display. Each profile will have either the project box (1) or the project sticker (2). : 1. If the project box is displayed, then the project account ([[WikiTree-24]]) needs to be a profile manager. But if the profile does not need to be managed by the project, you can change the project box to a sticker. If the profile is project-protected (PPP), and needs to be, the profile must also be managed by a project and display the corresponding project box.For more information about PPP, project boxes (PBs), project accounts (PAs), and project management, see [[Help:Project Protection]], [[Help:Project_Boxes]], [[Help:Project Accounts]], and [[Help:Project-Managed_Profiles]]. : 1.a. The profile needs to be managed by the US Southern Colonies Project but isn't: Please fill out the request form (see the link [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Managed_Profile_Requests|here]]). : 1.b. The profile doesn't need to be managed by the US Southern Colonies Project but is: If you're a profile manager, you can remove the project account from the trusted list. If you're not, post a comment on the profile asking that the project be removed as manager. : 1.c. The profile is PPP but doesn't need to be: If you're a project leader, you can remove PPP. If you aren't, and the profile is managed by the project, post a comment on the profile. If the project is not a manager, post to G2G from the profile (click the "Ask Question" button) & tag it {{Tag_Link|southern_colonies}} to bring it to our attention.

Short answer about project box (PB), project account (PA), and PPP: If PB, then PA (and vice versa); if PPP, then PB & PA.

{{US Southern Colonist Sticker}} If you need a refresher on what's a project box/what's a sticker - short answer: the sticker is at right (or above on a small screen) and the project box is below. For more information, see [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_News_Page_-_2020_Archive#November_News|November News]] (on the 2020 archive page). {{US Southern Colonist}}

: 2. If the profile displays the sticker, then the profile should not be managed by the project (see 1.b. above). The sticker, without any parameters, adds the profile to [[:Category: US Southern Colonists]]. The project is working toward having only those profiles with the project box in that category by using the sticker's "colony switch" parameter, which will recategorize the profile from US Southern Colonists to a colony-specific category (see [[Template:US_Southern_Colonist_Sticker|the template page]] and [[Space:US Southern Colonies Stickers|this page]] for details). If you need advice on which colony to add, post to one of the Colonial Team's page for help (links to the team pages are [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Colonial_Teams|here]]), or post a comment on this page (include the WikiTree ID of the profile in question in either case). '''Check Your Suggestions''': Before leaving the profile you're checking, check its suggestions - especially if you've just made corrections. In the mini-menu at upper right, click "Suggestions" under the profile's WikiTree ID (you can check all suggestions for your watchlist if you click the "Suggestions" that is under "My WikiTree" in the mini-menu). If the profile did not meet "if PB, then PA (and vice versa); if PPP, then PB & PA" at the last update (generally every Monday, depending on where you are in the world), you'll have suggestions about that, such as [[Space:DBE_926|DBE 926]]: "PPP With unpaired Project Account and ProjectBox". Update the status of the suggestion to "Corrected" (if it has been) or "Comment" that you've submitted a request for the project to manage the profile (for example). '''Suggestions for News Page''': I asked project members what they'd like to see covered & the following information stems from the feedback I received. If you have anything you'd like covered, send me a private message ([[Noland-165]]) or post a comment to this page. : ''Project-member Primer'' (useful links) * [[Project:US_Southern_Colonies|US Southern Colonies Project page]] * [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Teams|US Southern Colonies Teams]] * The category for project members is [[[[:Category:US Southern Colonies Project]]]]

'''Tip for tracking profiles for your ancestors''' : If you're connected in WikiTree, in the dropdown menu under "My WikiTree" in the mini-menu at upper right of a profile page, click "Family Activity Feed" (which defaults to your Watchlist) and then click "Ancestors". This will show changes to profiles in your tree (lineal and collateral). What an eye-opener! WikiTree is continually making improvements, so it's easy to miss some things. I recommend to new people a lot to take the time to explore the links in the dropdown menus under the entries in that mini-menu. I think I now need to recommend also that folks click any tabs found toward the top of pages! (Kind of like the old computer games, where clicking on anything and everything helped you advance in the game!)

You probably did. But did you also know that while you need to be signed in to view most pages in FamilySearch, the relatively new "Discovery" page for a PID (person's ID) is viewable without being signed in? Keep in mind that anything you find on the Discovery page is considered unreliable. You'd need to sign in to see what information, if any, is supported by a reliable source. Still, if you're like me and have to sign in anew every couple of hours, being able to see what information the PID might have without signing in can be a real timesaver. I'll use one of my ancestors as an example - [[Furgason-39|Francis Furgason]]. Someone shared a FamilySearch url for him recently - https://www.familysearch.org/tree/person/details/LT9R-H16 - and thanks to WikiTree's [[Template: FamilySearch|FamilySearch template]], I was able to easily convert that to text links for the PID, the sources page, and the Discovery page. From his profile (as of 31 August): : FamilySearch PID for Frances Ferguson (28 April 1760–March 1834) * {{FamilySearch|LT9R-H16}} * {{FamilySearch|LT9R-H16|sources}} (3 sources as of 31 August 2022 - death records for son Locket) * {{FamilySearch|LT9R-H16|discovery}} : All you need to know about the PID is the AFN (Ancestral File Number), in this case, LT9R-H16, then replace the xx's with the AFN in the following coding: :: * {{FamilySearch|LT9R-H16}}
:: * {{FamilySearch|LT9R-H16|sources}}
:: * {{FamilySearch|LT9R-H16|discovery}} : For the name & born/died information, I copy that from the top of one of the PID pages and tweak the formatting a bit (adding "FamilySearch PID for" in front, putting the dates in parentheses on the same line, and closing up the spaces around the en dash, if there are any). The Discovery page found at https://ancestors.familysearch.org/en/LT9R-H16/frances-ferguson-1760-1834 yields ::Frances Ferguson
::28 April 1760–March 1834 : which becomes : FamilySearch PID for Frances Ferguson (28 April 1760–March 1834) Once you sign in to check the sources, you can add a note about them to the second bullet. In Francis's case, his PID provided a reliable source for him being the father of Locket. However, that reliable source - his son Locket's death record - provided a wealth of information about Francis's son. See [https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Furgason-67&diff=152661293&oldid=3518093 this change page] for the difference it made to the biography for Locket's profile!

Also, collect sources on Family Search or our Southern Colonies Project Source Page. '''What's in a name? Maybe not what you think!''' A post on a project-managed profile last month had [[Noland-165|me]] looking for information about colonial naming practices... here's a copy of the resulting post: : I went looking for a source for naming patterns & found a fascinating post about middle names worth sharing: https://genfiles.com/articles/middle-names/ - everything Bob posts is really well researched. : I found some pages about naming patterns that should probably be read with a salt shaker nearby (not sure "take with a grain of salt" suffices for some of them, but still... pretty interesting). As Bob says in his post about [https://genfiles.com/articles/comments-on-naming-patterns/ Naming Patterns]: "I generally discourage fellow family researchers from making hypotheses based on the names parents give to their children. There are articles all over the internet explaining that families of some particular time and place followed some specific set of rules in naming their children.

''although in my experience, it's usually just the given name'' * https://familytreemagazine.com/names/naming-traditions/jan-2012-naming-practices-feature/ (there's a hard-to-see "no thanks" for the window that obscures the page) : See also the [https://www.google.com/search?source=univ&tbm=isch&q=naming+patterns+%2Bcolonial+%2Bmaiden&client=firefox-b-1-d&fir=cEIPnhNiQQQsuM%252CVJMxF-HduR08RM%252C_%253BxfxABMAZH4hbaM%252Cl1WjW-D23NIJKM%252C_%253BjEcO1tRdauo9JM%252Cl1WjW-D23NIJKM%252C_%253BnM4FMpxoCO4MeM%252CKtmfqg4yORaDVM%252C_%253BhNDR9CnyH5NiRM%252Cl1WjW-D23NIJKM%252C_%253BBM7tQK7kc7811M%252Cmz9Z2UMw69xrCM%252C_%253BfQnGopX5v0iQGM%252CvSgEwj0dKQWs8M%252C_%253By1q76FZN-D7fwM%252CMaMUwAqE4XrPnM%252C_%253BfzJ-CdjxOm_ipM%252CZNwRaN_2iRciVM%252C_%253BAat0y4cyzX4-LM%252CvjdXMO8U9FrzSM%252C_&usg=AI4_-kQxVmD2NvzkVMbIOZ4IZyMTxBmqMw&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjP_LGIodb3AhWKhXIEHXHyD2gQjJkEegQIRBAC search results for images] : Cheers, Liz : P.S. Bob also has an article about one of my soapbox issues (the fluidity & meaning of Sr/Jr in colonial America): https://genfiles.com/articles/senior-junior/ Need an example of Sr/Jr in the records not being for father/son? One passage from ''Cavaliers & Pioneers'' offers an example of Sr/Jr used for two people who were not father/son and also shows the fluidity of Sr/Jr for a pair who were. From the profile for [[Soane-14|Judith (Soane) Thweatt]], who was born c1680: : "On 24 November 1651 HENRY SOANE patented 297 acres, James City County (Patent Book 2, p 351) lyeing on the E side of the Chicohominy River, comonly know & called Hoggs Land; Transport 6 persons: HENRY SOANE, SR., HENRY SOANE, JR., JUDETH SOANE Senr., JUDETH SOANE Junr., JOHN SOANE, ELIZABETH SOANE.

As you might know, WikiTree is "making 2022 our Year of Family Connections" (see the [https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/1332384/were-making-2022-our-year-of-family-connections G2G announcement post] for more information). '''January 2022 Connect-a-Thon''' The January Connect-a-Thon - the first of three Connect-a-Thons planned for 2022 (with the only other thon being the "ever-popular Fall Source-a-Thon") - takes place 14-17 January. If you haven't yet signed up for the Winter Connect-a-Thon, head over to the [https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/1341478/ G2G Registration question] and post an answer. If you want to join a particular team, say so in your answer (see [[Help:Connect-a-Thon#Teams|this page]] for a list of teams). As noted on the [[Help: Connect-a-Thon]] page, the '''cut-off date for registering is midnight on Wednesday, 12 January'''. What's involved? Here's a a brief bit from the Help page's [[Help: Connect-a-Thon#Participation Instructions|Participation Instructions]]: : Since tracking connections is somewhat complex, for this challenge we just count the number of parents, siblings, spouses and children you add to existing person profiles. Often these will be "collateral" relatives that members neglected to add when adding their family tree. Each relative you add increases the chance that an individual's tree will intertwine with our global tree. The [[Help:Connect-a-Thon|Help page]] also includes a section on [[Help:Connect-a-Thon#Where_to_work_from|Where to work from]], which is where I first learned about the maintenance categorization hierarchy for "Needs Profiles Created". For details about the category (which has close to 10000 profiles), see the [[:Category: Needs Profiles Created|category page]]. You'll find subcategories for Maryland, Virginia, North and South Carolina, and Georgia under [[:Category: United States, Needs Profiles Created]]. '''Challenge 1''' WikiTree's 2022 WikiTree Challenge 1 is Jimmy Wales. If you'd like to participate in the challenge "to uncover as much as possible about his family history in one week", that's a separate registration (see [https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/1339800/ this G2G post]). The week-long Challenge 1 starts 5 January. I didn't see a cut-off date for the weekly challenge, but if you're interested, posting sooner rather than later is probably a good idea. '''Your Own Watchlist''' Whether or not you join a Connect-a-Thon or a Weekly Challenge this year, you can still work on reducing the number of unconnected profiles by checking your own Watchlist (click [[Special:Unconnected]]). You can do a quick check on any profile to see if it's connected - go to the bottom of a profile & if it has the paragraph with the weekly connections (e.g., "12 degrees from...", below "Matches and Merges"), then it's connected. Building "outward" - adding siblings, spouses, and in-laws - helps make connections whether or not your lineal ancestors are connected. It also is a great way to help cousins you may not yet know find you!

This page provides ''guidance'' for creating and editing ''Person Profiles'' for [[:Category: US Southern Colonists|US Southern Colonists]]. The Project bases its guidance on WikiTree ''guidance'', and modifies and clarifies that guidance for the specific needs of this place in this era. While this ''guidance'' is focused on ''Person Profiles'', it is also applicable to Project ''Free-Space Profiles (Pages)'', ''Categories'', ''Project Pages'', and ''Help Pages''. There are already extensive [[:Category: WikiTree Help|Help]] pages. It would be redundant to repeat their content, and would require significant effort to track changes to them. This page therefore does not attempt to compile everything into one page, instead presenting a Quick Reference to the WikiTree and project-specific pages (for the detail), and highlighting the most frequently needed guidance here. == Honor Code == This ''guidance'' serves as a tool or an agreement to help us create and maintain mutual trust and a common understanding of how the community works. This ''guidance'' speaks to these elements of the [[Special:Honor_Code|WikiTree Genealogist Honor Code]]: * [[Help:Collaboration|collaboration]] * accuracy * sources == Pre-1700 Profiles == Many of the [[:Category: US Southern Colonists|US Southern Colonists]] were obviously born before 1700. We have a higher standard for deep genealogy. Key guidelines for [[Help:Pre-1700 Profiles|Pre-1700 Profiles]] include: * [[Help:Pre-1700 Profiles#Make sure there isn't already a profile|Make sure there isn't already a profile]]. ** Search for existing profiles using the name search, carefully reviewing all profiles with birth and death dates within +/- 50 years of the birth and death dates of the new profile. For female profiles, search using all known married names as well as LNAB. ** During profile creation, review the ''Possible Matches'', carefully reviewing all profiles with birth and death dates within +/- 50 years of the birth and death dates of the new profile. * Carefully observe [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Project_Editing_Guidance#Styles and Standards|style rules]]. * Cite [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Project_Editing_Guidance#Reliable Sources|reliable sources]]. * You must '''never create a pre-1700 profile without citing a [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Project_Editing_Guidance#Reliable Sources|reliable source]]'''. * '''A family tree on Geni, Ancestry, MyHeritage, FamilySearch, Find a Grave, or any other user-generated tree (like WikiTree itself) is not a sufficient source for creating a pre-1700 profile. They may be valuable resources and may help you find original, reliable sources, but ''they must never be the only source''.''' == Profiles with Multiple Project Boxes == Sometimes, two projects actively collaborate on a profile. For these profiles, there may be confusion about which guidelines to follow. Generally, the guidelines of the more "specific" or "narrow" of the projects should be followed. For example, [[Project: US Presidents]] is more specific than [[Project: US Southern Colonies]]. If the guidelines of the two projects differ, you can ask for guidance by posting a comment on the profile before editing it. == Before Clicking Add or Edit == # [https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/1417082/would-you-like-to-join-the-us-southern-colonies-project Consider joining the Project] # [[Help:Search|Search]] for existing and duplicate profiles # [[Help:Research Before Editing|Research]] # Only use [[Help:Uncertain#What are examples of sources that provide uncertain information?|derivative sources]] (uncertain information) as [[Wikipedia:Finding Aid|''finding aids'']] for [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Project_Editing_Guidance#Reliable Sources|reliable sources]] # Find [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Project_Editing_Guidance#Reliable Sources|reliable sources]] # [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Project_Editing_Guidance#Communication|Communicate]] == Communication == See communication guidelines for [[Help:Communication Before Editing|editing]] and [[Help:Pre-1700 Profiles#Communicating about changes|pre-1700 changes]]. There are three different methods to communicate, each reaching a different audience: # [[Help:Comments|Comment]] on the profile. # [[Help:Private Messages|Private message]] or e-mail the profile manager(s). # Post to the Project members (post to one or both of these): #* [https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/tag/southern_colonies Ask a G2G question] tagged with the profile ID and southern_colonies. #* Ask a question on the [https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/wikitree-us-southern-colonies WikiTree US Southern Colonies Google Group].

[[Help:Communication Before Editing#How long should you wait?|How long should you wait?]] == Reliable Sources == The accuracy of WikiTree depends on our use of reliable [[Help:Sources|sources]]. For [[:Category: US Southern Colonists|US Southern Colonists]], see: * [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Project_Reliable_Sources|US Southern Colonies Project Reliable Sources]] * [[:Category: US Southern Colonies Reliable Sources]] Remember to: * Strive to ensure each ''Person Profile'' is [[Space:Genealogically_Defined|genealogically defined]]. * Find the reliable source, or better yet the original record, for information referred to in genealogies and abstracts. Review it for accuracy. * Ensure the record applies to the person, and is not conflated with someone else. If there is risk of conflation, document the risk in the ''Research Notes'' section. * '''Add the reliable source as a [[Help:Sources#How to Add Sources to Profiles|source or reference]].''' * Consider whether adding unsourced family trees and genealogies as sources really contributes to the accuracy of the profile. Again, '''a family tree on Geni, Ancestry, MyHeritage, FamilySearch, Find a Grave, or any other user-generated tree (like WikiTree itself) ''is not a reliable source'' in and of itself. They may be valuable resources and may help you find original, reliable sources.''' * Unsourced family trees are subject to removal from project-managed profiles. * Do not merely add a URL as a source or citation. * Formatting citations can be complex, so don't get hung up on this. At least include the author, publication, publisher, date, and page(s) in that order. Add a URL if the source is available online. * Prefer URLs to free websites (e.g. [https://archive.org Internet Archive], [https://www.hathitrust.org HathiTrust], [https://www.familysearch.org/ FamilySearch]) over paid websites if the same content is available on a free website. ''Chicago Manual of Style'' is the citation format preferred on WikiTree, generally following Elizabeth Shown Mills' [https://www.evidenceexplained.com ''Evidence Explained'']: * ''Evidence Explained'' [https://www.evidenceexplained.com/content/sample-quickcheck-models examples] * [https://www.citationmachine.net/chicago Chicago Citation Generator] Not sure what is reliable? See [[Help:Uncertain#What are examples of sources that provide uncertain information?|derivative and original sources]]. See [[Help:Sources FAQ|Help: Sources FAQ]] for more information. == Editing == See [[:Category: Profile Editing Help]]. === Styles and Standards === * '''Present original biographies, not simply [[Help:Copying Text|copied text]].''' * [[Help:Biographies|Biographies]] * [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Project_Profile_Example|US Southern Colonies Project Profile Example]] See [[Help:Biographies#Proper order|Proper Order]] for text sections and other elements. Note these Help errors (as of 21 Jan 2024): # [[Help:Project Boxes|Help: Project Boxes]] '''mistakenly''' fails to refer to the order of Research Note Boxes. * Data in the ''Data Fields'' and the ''Biography'' should agree. * The ''Biography'' section should focus on information about the person's life. ** The use of subheadings in the ''Biography'' section is encouraged to organize the information (e.g. ''Birth'', ''Marriage'', ''Death'', ''Children'', ''Military Service'', ''Timeline''). Heading and subheading sections should describe an aspect of the person's life, provide citations of reliable sources, and provide context where important. * The ''Research Notes'' section then focuses on the state of genealogical research, presents alternate and conflicting information, etc. ** The use of subheadings in the ''Research Notes'' section is encouraged to organize the information by topic and author. Additions to the ''Research Notes'' section can be signed by adding ~~~~ (four tildas) to the end of a note. When the edit is saved, the four tildas will be converted into the user's profile ID and the date/time, and look something like this: :::A well-researched, reliably sourced research note. [[WikiTree-24|WikiTree-24]] 12:00, 1 April 2023 (UTC) * Use [[Wikipedia:Title case|''title case'']] for headings and short subheadings. [[Wikipedia:Letter case#Stylistic or specialised usage|''Sentence case'']] is good for longer subheadings. * Do not include citations (ref tags) in headings and subheadings. * Do not use a horizontal line (----) in ''Person Profiles''. * Do not use colored text. * Do not use "busy" background images. In general, an image of a flag, map, etc. is too busy. Get inspired. See [[Help:Examples|Examples]]. Then create a great profile. See [[:Category: Styles and Standards]] for more information. === Document Accurately === * Source each piece of information added to the Biography with a reliable source. * Alternate, conflicting, or uncertain information should instead be added to the ''Research Notes'' section, and the source of that information should be listed. * Ensure parent-child relationships adhere to [[Help:Uncertain Parents|Uncertain Parents]] guidelines. * Use the [[Help:Name Fields|name]], [[Help:Date Fields#Date Status Options|date]], [[Help:Location Fields#location|location]], and [[Help:Relationship Status|relationship]] status options. === Names === * For a woman married more than once, the last husband's last name should be in the ''Current Last Name'' data field. Married name(s) from the previous marriages should be in the ''Other Last Name(s)'' data field. * Do not use "of [location]" or other research labels in name data fields. * Do not add a middle name to the ''Middle Name'' data field unless there is a reliable source that the person was referred to with this middle name during their life. '''Remember that [https://genfiles.com/articles/middle-names/ middle names were rare prior to the American Revolution].''' * Do not add Jr., Sr., I, II, III, etc. to the ''Suffix'' data field unless there is a reliable source that the person was referred to with this suffix during their life. === Dates === * [[Help:Date Fields]] * In date fields, "We attempt to use the modern Gregorian calendar in all cases, i.e. "New Style" dates." Therefore, for "Old Style" dates: ** we change start of the year from 25 March to 1 January. ** we do '''not''' adjust the day from the Julian calendar to the Gregorian calendar (e.g. skipping 11 or 12 or any other number of days), as this is exceeding difficult and would create additional confusion between record dates and date fields. * In the Biography, Research Notes, and Sources, we list the date as found in the record, and employ dual dating of just the year (e.g. George Washington's birthay of 11 February 1731 in the Julian calendar is listed as 11 February 1731/2, not 22 February 1731/2). === Location Names === * Do not use the location name suggested by the dropdown menu in the ''Birth'', ''Death'', and ''Marriage Place'' data fields. The Project adheres to the WikiTree guiding principle for [[Help:Name Fields|Name Fields]] and [[Help:Location Fields|Location Fields]]: "[[Help:Name Fields#Use their conventions instead of ours|use their convention instead of ours]]." In general, locations will look like this specific example: :St. Anne's Parish, Albemarle County, Colony of Virginia See [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Project_Location_Preferences|US Southern Colonies Project Location Preferences]] for a detailed discussion of the Project's guidelines for location names, in particular: * the names of the Colonies (e.g. Colony of Virginia, Province of Maryland) * the use of the words ''Parish'', ''County'', ''District'', etc. in location data fields * Location Resources for researching the history of location names See [[Help:Location Fields|Help: Location Fields]] for more information. If you aren't sure of the correct location name or format, add [[:Category: US Southern Colonies Project Needs Location Research]] to the ''Person Profile''. === Categories === * [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Categories|US Southern Colonies Categories]] * Add [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Project_Maintenance_Categories|Project Maintenance Categories]] to communicate work needed on a profile. Properly [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Project_Maintenance_Categories#Documenting "Needs" in Research Notes|document]] the category so others can help. See [[Help:Categorization|Help: Categorization]] for more information. === Research Note Boxes === * [[Help:Research Note Boxes|Research Note Boxes]] * [[Help:Uncertain Parents|Uncertain Parents]] === Project Box === * Do not add, edit, or delete the [[Template:US Southern Colonist|project box]] or [[Template:US Southern Colonist Adjunct|adjunct project box]]. The Project's [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Managed_Profiles_Teams|Managed Profiles Team]] adds or deletes the project box, keeps a list of project-managed profiles, and reviews periodic reports of errors in the use of these templates, the project account, and the PPP lock. === Stickers === * [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Stickers|US Southern Colonies Stickers]] * [[Help:Stickers|Stickers]] * [[:Category: Stickers]] === DNA Confirmation === ''Person Profiles'' display [[Help:DNA Test Connections|DNA Connections]]. It cannot be stressed enough that the listing of test-takers there does NOT mean that their relationship with the ''Person Profile'' has been proven with DNA. DNA Connections are a research aid listing names of test-takers who are currently attached to the ''Person Profile'' through a lineage that is estimated to possibly report a DNA match for the test type (Y-DNA, mitochondrial DNA, autosomal DNA). There may also be other test-takers who actually share DNA with the ''Person Profile'' that are not listed because they are attached to the incorrect lineage on WikiTree. Both the match and and the genealogy must be confirmed. * Please do not use the ''Confirmed with DNA'' [[Help:Relationship Status|relationship status]] feature unless you have carefully read and understand the WikiTree Help pages listed directly below, and have performed all steps there. See these two Help pages for detailed descriptions and instructions for adding the ''Confirmed with DNA'' [[Help:Relationship Status|relationship status]] to a profile: * [[Help:Confirmed with DNA|Confirmed with DNA]] * [[Help:DNA Confirmation|DNA Confirmation]] === Suggestions === Are you all done? Before moving on, check the profile's [[Help:Suggestions|suggestions]] and see what else needs to be done. == Data Doctors == There are a large number of reports available to assist us in identifying profiles with issues, some offering suggestions for the fix. * [[Project: Data Doctors]] * Project-Managed Profiles ** [[Automated:DD_Suggestion_List_WikiTree24|Data Doctors Suggestions]] ** [https://plus.wikitree.com/function/WTWebUser/Suggestions.htm?UserID=11613796 WikiTree+ Suggestions] The Project's [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Managed_Profiles_Teams|Managed Profiles Team]] monitors a number of these reports. See the Team's [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Managed_Profiles_Workspace|Workspace]] page for more detail. This Team handles all issues with the use of the [[Template:US Southern Colonist|project box]], [[WikiTree-24|project account]], and [[Help:Project Protection|project protection]]. == Project Activity Monitoring == The Project's [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Managed_Profiles_Teams|Managed Profiles Team]] reviews [https://www.wikitree.com/index.php?title=Special:NetworkFeed&who=WikiTree-24&l=500&watchlist=1&hideown=0 every change] to the [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Project-Managed_Profiles|project-managed profiles]]. When an edit is made that is not reliably sourced or otherwise fails to follow this ''guidance'', the Team will take one or more actions including, but not limited to: * Contacting the editor and requesting they promptly correct the edit * Reversing the edit * Correcting the edit * Seeking a project member to oversee a review of the profile == Still Need Help? == If you still have questions after reading the ''guidance'' here, please contact the Project: * [https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/tag/southern_colonies Ask a G2G question] tagged with the profile ID and southern_colonies. * Ask a question on the [https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/wikitree-us-southern-colonies WikiTree US Southern Colonies Google Group].

However, "America" is also acceptable when a specific colony is not known. * [nothing] ''(preference)'' * America ''(acceptable when a specific colony is not known)'' :See the footnotes'''Before 4 July 1776''': A number of other country names have been proposed, many of which are not preferred or are unacceptable. * WikiTree's [[Space:North_American_Place_Names|North American Place Names]] discusses the terms ''British North America'', ''British Colonial America'', and ''Colonial North America''. * The WikiTree G2G Q&A "[https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/335230/ Should British Colonial America be used as a location?]" discusses this topic at length. for discussion of alternatives that should not be used. :'''After 4 July 1776''': :The three options, in order of project preference, are: * United States ''(first preference; used interchangeably with "United States of America" in the Constitution; format used in place name suggestions)'' * United States of America ''(second preference; longer compared to first preference)'' * USA ''(third preference; abbreviations discouraged)'' :See the footnotes '''After 4 July 1776''': A number of other country names have been proposed, many of which are not preferred or are unacceptable. * [https://plus.wikitree.com/function/WTShowTable/Table.htm?table=Countries&filter=All WikiTree+, United States Countries] (table) lists alternatives as ''USA'', ''United States of America'', and ''United States''. for discussion of alternatives that should not be used. :Note: The United States of America began on 4 July 1776, for the purposes of US Southern Colonies Project scope, WikiTree categorization, and Data Doctors location errors. === Colony Name Preferences === :Each of the colonies within the scope of the US Southern Colonies Project has a variety of acceptable names. However, since one of the goals of the project is to standardize names to improve results when searching by location, please use the following: * Jamestown, Colony of VirginiaJamestown: 14 May 1607 (land selected) – 1624/25 Muster. * Colony of VirginiaColony of Virginia: 14 May 1607 (Jamestown land selected) – 3 July 1776. * Province of MarylandProvince of Maryland: 20 June 1632 (charter) – 3 July 1776. * Province of CarolinaProvince of Carolina: 24 March 1663 (charter) – 23 January 1712 (partition). * Province of North CarolinaProvince of North Carolina: 24 January 1712 (partition) – 3 July 1776. * Province of South CarolinaProvince of South Carolina: 24 January 1712 (partition) – 3 July 1776. * Province of GeorgiaProvince of Georgia: 21 April 1732 (charter) – 3 July 1776. : See WikiTree's [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1jlRaiRtaMEpsPdeuRLS2ids4HAXJyGVCKiQyEMh4NNE/edit#gid=667189750 United States Historical Place Names] (Google Sheets) for a useful table of the states and commonwealths of the USA, including a historical timeline and their predecessors. === Summary Table === {| cellpadding="8" border="1" !Country!!Location Fields!!Regional Categories!!Person Profiles

Such a profile therefore "needs" work. The [[Project:US Southern Colonies|US Southern Colonies Project]] has defined [[:Category:US Southern Colonies Project Maintenance Categories|project-specific maintenance categories]] to organize the work of team members and others interested in improving the profiles of [[:Category:US Southern Colonists|US Southern Colonists]]. These maintenance categories are implemented through "modifiers" or directly with categories: * Project Maintenance "Needs" Categories ** '''|needs=''' on the [[Template:US Southern Colonist|project box]] or [[Template:US Southern Colonist Adjunct|adjunct project box]] ** '''|needs=''' on the [[Template:US Southern Colonist Sticker|project sticker]] * Subset of the [[Help:Research Note Boxes|Research Note Boxes]] ** '''|US Southern Colonies''' Sections 2 and 3 describe the project maintenance categories in detail. Section 4 presents the steps and syntax to categorize a profile into one or more of the project maintenance categories. Section 5 provides a recommended approach to then document the needed work in the [[Help:Research Notes|Research Notes]] section of the profile. == Project Maintenance "Needs" Categories == See [[:Category:US Southern Colonies Project Maintenance Categories|US Southern Colonies Project Maintenance Categories]] for the most up-to-date list of project maintenance categories. === [[:Category:US Southern Colonies Project Needs Biography|Needs Biography]] === ''Criteria:'' Profiles in this category need a biography, or have biographies that do not meet WikiTree biography recommendations and best practices. ''Example Syntax:'' :{{US Southern Colonist|Maryland|needs=Biography}}
:{{US Southern Colonist Adjunct|needs=Biography}}
:{{US Southern Colonist Sticker|Maryland|needs=Biography}} ''Notes:'' none. ''Companion Page:'' none. ''See also:'' [[Help:Biographies]], [[Space:Biography Builders|Biography Builders]], [[Help:Bio Ideas]], [[Space:Genealogically Defined|Genealogically Defined]]. === [[:Category:US Southern Colonies Project Needs Extensive Work|Needs Extensive Work]] === ''Criteria:'' Profiles in this category need extensive work, defined as needing to be placed in more than three (3) of the US Southern Colonies Project Maintenance "Needs" Categories. ''Example Syntax:'' :{{US Southern Colonist|Virginia|needs=Extensive Work}}
:{{US Southern Colonist Adjunct|needs=Extensive Work}}
:{{US Southern Colonist Sticker|Virginia|needs=Extensive Work}} ''Notes:'' none. ''Companion Page:'' none. ''See also:'' none. === [[:Category:US Southern Colonies Project Needs Location Research|Needs Location Research]] === ''Criteria:'' Profiles in this category need to be reviewed to verify locations in the data fields and text existed at the time the person was living, are consistent with the family's known locations, and use the naming conventions of their time instead of ours. ''Example Syntax:'' :{{US Southern Colonist|Jamestown|needs=Location Research}}
:{{US Southern Colonist Adjunct|needs=Location Research}}

''Companion Page:'' [[Space:US Southern Colonies Project Needs Location Research|US Southern Colonies Project Needs Location Research]]. ''See also:'' [[Help:Location Fields]]. === [[:Category:US Southern Colonies Project Needs Merge Attention|Needs Merge Attention]] === ''Criteria:'' Profiles in this category need attention as a result of merge activity, most commonly post-merge cleanup. This category may also be used to: * ensure a profile in a proposed merge doesn't fall off the radar—sometimes profile managers approve the merge, but don't complete it; other times orphaned merges receive default approval, but no one reviews the merge; * flag a profile that has had a proposed merge rejected or postponed; * flag a profile you set in an unmerged match—in which case you should also add the profile to [[:Category:US Southern Colonies Project Needs Research|Needs Research]]. ''Example Syntax:'' :{{US Southern Colonist|Carolina|needs=Merge Attention}}
:{{US Southern Colonist Adjunct|needs=Merge Attention}}
:{{US Southern Colonist Sticker|Carolina|needs=Merge Attention}} ''Notes:'' none. ''Companion Page:'' none. ''See also:'' [[Help:Merging]]. === [[:Category:US Southern Colonies Project Needs Project Attention|Needs Project Attention]] === ''Criteria:'' Profiles in this category need project attention primarily because the profile has an error related to the project account or project box. ''Example Syntax:'' :{{US Southern Colonist|North Carolina|needs=Project Attention}}
:{{US Southern Colonist Adjunct|needs=Project Attention}}
:{{US Southern Colonist Sticker|North Carolina|needs=Project Attention}} ''Notes:'' These usually require resolution by someone with the Project Team Leader badge or the Profile Manager. ''Companion Page:'' none. ''See also:'' [[Space:US Southern Colonies Project Editing Guidance|US Southern Colonies Project Editing Guidance]]. === [[:Category:US Southern Colonies Project Needs Ref Tags|Needs Ref Tags]] === ''Criteria:'' Profiles in this category have both biographies and sources, but do not contain in-line citations (i.e. ref tags, …), making it difficult to determine the source of facts in the profile. ''Example Syntax:'' :{{US Southern Colonist|South Carolina|needs=Ref Tags}}
:{{US Southern Colonist Adjunct|needs=Ref Tags}}
:{{US Southern Colonist Sticker|South Carolina|needs=Ref Tags}} ''Notes:'' none. ''Companion Page:'' none. ''See also:'' [[Space:References and Ref Tag Suggestons|References and Ref Tag Suggestons]]. === [[:Category:US Southern Colonies Project Needs Relationship Review|Needs Relationship Review]] === ''Criteria:'' Profiles in this category need to reviewed to ensure the relationships (attached profiles) are supported by the biographical information and sources. ''Example Syntax:'' :{{US Southern Colonist|Georgia|needs=Relationship Review}}
:{{US Southern Colonist Adjunct|needs=Relationship Review}}
:{{US Southern Colonist Sticker|Georgia|needs=Relationship Review}} ''Notes:'' none. ''Companion Page:'' none. ''See also:'' none. === [[:Category:US Southern Colonies Project Needs Research|Needs Research]] === ''Criteria:'' Profiles in this category need additional research. ''Example Syntax:'' :{{US Southern Colonist|Maryland|needs=Research}}
:{{US Southern Colonist Adjunct|needs=Research}}
:{{US Southern Colonist Sticker|Maryland|needs=Research}} ''Notes:'' none. ''Companion Page:'' none. ''See also:'' none. === [[:Category:US Southern Colonies Project Needs Sources|Needs Sources]] === ''Criteria:'' Profiles in this category need to be updated to include sources for one or more pieces of information in the profile. ''Example Syntax:'' :{{US Southern Colonist|Virginia|needs=Sources}}
:{{US Southern Colonist Adjunct|needs=Sources}}
:{{US Southern Colonist Sticker|Virginia|needs=Sources}} ''Notes:'' Use the '''Unsourced Profiles''' category if the profile has no sources. ''Companion Page:'' none. ''See also:'' [[Help:Sources]], [[Space:US Southern Colonies Sources and Resources Directory|US Southern Colonies Sources and Resources Directory]]. === [[:Category:US Southern Colonies Project Needs Style Review|Needs Style Review]] === ''Criteria:'' Profiles in this category need to be updated to meet current WikiTree and US Southern Colonies Project style guidelines. ''Example Syntax:'' :{{US Southern Colonist|Jamestown|needs=Style Review}}
:{{US Southern Colonist Adjunct|needs=Style Review}}
:{{US Southern Colonist Sticker|Jamestown|needs=Style Review}} ''Notes:'' none. ''Companion Page:'' none. ''See also:'' [[:Category:Styles and Standards|Styles and Standards]], [[Space:US Southern Colonies Project Editing Guidance|US Southern Colonies Project Editing Guidance]], [[Space:US Southern Colonies Project Profile Example|US Southern Colonies Project Profile Example]]. == Project Maintenance WikiTree-wide Categories == The previous "needs" categories are specific to the [[Project:US Southern Colonies|US Southern Colonies Project]], although many may be similar to [[:Category:Project Maintenance Categories|Project Maintenance Categories]] created by other projects. The following maintenance categories are specific to the [[Project:US Southern Colonies|US Southern Colonies Project]], but are part of the WikiTree-wide maintenance categories implemented with [[Help:Research Note Boxes|Research Note Boxes]] or directly with categories. === [[:Category:US Southern Colonies, Conflated Profiles|Conflated Profiles]] === ''Criteria:'' Profiles in this category contain information about two or more people that has been combined and confused. ''Example Syntax:'' :{{Conflated|US Southern Colonies|Province of Carolina}} ''Notes:'' none. ''Companion Page:'' none. ''See also:'' none. === [[:Category:US Southern Colonies, Family Brick Walls|Family Brick Walls]] === ''Criteria:'' Profiles in this category have reached a brick wall. ''Example Syntax:'' :[[Category:Province of Carolina, Family Brick Walls]] ''Notes:'' none. ''Companion Page:'' none. ''See also:'' none. === [[:Category:US Southern Colonies, Unsourced Profiles|Unsourced Profiles]] === ''Criteria:'' Profiles in this category have no sources or no clear information where any information came from. ''Example Syntax:'' :{{Unsourced|US Southern Colonies|North Carolina}} ''Notes:'' none. ''Companion Page:'' none. ''See also:'' [[Help:Sources]]. == Add or Remove a Project Maintenance Category == === Add or Remove a Project Maintenance "Needs" Category === This section presents the steps to properly categorize a profile into a project maintenance "needs" category. To ''add'' a Project profile to the category, do the following: # Add the category by one of these two (2) methods:

#* project box with '''colony''' parameter and up to three (3) '''needs''' parameters

{{US Southern Colonist|'''colony'''|needs='''value'''|needs1='''value1'''|needs2='''value2'''}}

''Notes:'' Insert project box ''below'' any other categories, and ''above'' the Biography header. Only project-managed profiles use the project box.

#* project sticker with '''colony''' parameter and up to three (3) '''needs''' parameters

{{US Southern Colonist Sticker|'''colony'''|needs='''value'''|needs1='''value1'''|needs2='''value2'''}}

''Notes:'' Insert project sticker ''below'' the Biography heading.

# Document the "needs" in the Research Notes as described in the '''Documenting "Needs" in Research Notes''' section below. To ''remove'' a Project profile from the category, do the following: # Resolve the "needs". # Update the "needs" issue(s) in the Research Notes section. # Remove the category (by reversing ''add'' step 1 above). ==== Colony Values ==== '''colony''' is a '''required''' parameter and takes the values: * Virginia * Jamestown * Maryland * Carolina * North Carolina * South Carolina * Georgia ''Notes:'' Careful! It is ''Jamestown'' and ''Carolina'' here. ==== Needs Values ==== '''value''', '''value1''', and '''value2''' take the values: * Biography * Extensive Work * Location Research * Merge Attention * Project Attention * Ref Tags * Relationship Review * Research * Sources * Style Review === Add or Remove a Project Maintenance WikiTree-wide Category === This section presents the steps to properly categorize a profile into a project maintenance research note box category, or directly into a category. '''Note''': ''The Conflated Profiles template discussed below categorizes profiles into categories shared with the states of the United States Project in the cases of Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia. There are unique categories for Jamestown Colony and Province of Carolina. '''Note''': ''The Unsourced Profiles template discussed below categorizes profiles into categories shared with the states of the United States Project in the cases of Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia. There are NO categories for Jamestowne Colony and Province of Carolina. To ''add'' a Project profile to the category, do the following: :1. Add the category using a Research Note Box with |'''US Southern Colonies''' and |'''colony''' (Conflated Profiles and Unsourced Profiles) or directly (Family Brick Wall):

{|cellpadding=6 !Colony!!Conflated Profiles!!Family Brick Walls!!Unsourced Profiles |- |Maryland||{{Conflated|US Southern Colonies|Maryland}}||[[Category:Province of Maryland, Family Brick Walls]]||{{Unsourced|US Southern Colonies|Maryland}} |- |Virginia||{{Conflated|US Southern Colonies|Virginia}}||[[Category:Virginia Colony, Family Brick Walls]]||{{Unsourced|US Southern Colonies|Virginia}} |- |Jamestown Colony||{{Conflated|US Southern Colonies|Jamestown Colony}}||[[Category:Jamestown Colony, Family Brick Walls]]||{{Unsourced|US Southern Colonies}}
''note no colony parameter'' |- |Province of Carolina||{{Conflated|US Southern Colonies|Province of Carolina}}||[[Category:Province of Carolina, Family Brick Walls]]||{{Unsourced|US Southern Colonies}}
''note no colony parameter'' |- |North Carolina||{{Conflated|US Southern Colonies|North Carolina}}||[[Category:Province of North Carolina, Family Brick Walls]]||{{Unsourced|US Southern Colonies|North Carolina}} |- |South Carolina||{{Conflated|US Southern Colonies|South Carolina}}||[[Category:Province of South Carolina, Family Brick Walls]]||{{Unsourced|US Southern Colonies|South Carolina}} |- |Georgia||{{Conflated|US Southern Colonies|Georgia}}||[[Category:Province of Georgia, Family Brick Walls]]||{{Unsourced|US Southern Colonies|Georgia}} |} :''Notes:'' Insert ''below'' any other categories, and ''above'' the Biography header. Careful! It is ''Jamestown Colony'' and ''Province of Carolina'' here.

:2. Document the "needs" in the Research Notes as described in the '''Documenting "Needs" in Research Notes''' section below. To ''remove'' a Project profile from the category, do the following: # Resolve the "needs". # Update the "needs" issue(s) in the Research Notes section. # Remove the category (by reversing ''add'' step 1 above). == Documenting "Needs" in Research Notes == When you add maintenance categories to a profile, you need to also explain why in the Research Notes section. This facilitates collaboration, helping community members understand why you added the maintenance category, and defining the work that needs to be done to then remove the maintenance category. Here is an example explanation for a profile added to less than four (4) maintenance categories: :== Research Notes == :'''Needs Biography''': Self-explanatory (no text in Biography section). ~~~~ :'''Needs Relationship Review''': Two profiles attached as wife ([[WikiTree-ID]] & [[WikiTree-ID]]) appear to represent the same woman. ~~~~ A profile needing to be added to more than three (3) maintenance categories is instead added to the '''Needs Extensive Work''' category, but each individual maintenance category is still documented. In this case, an example explanation might look like: :== Research Notes == :'''Needs Extensive Work''': The following maintenance categories apply:

:* '''Needs Biography''': Self-explanatory (no text in Biography section). ~~~~ :* '''Needs Relationship Review''': Two profiles attached as wife ([[WikiTree-ID]] & [[WikiTree-ID]]) appear to represent the same woman. ~~~~ :* '''Needs Research''': Research into the life events and family of this person is needed. ~~~~ :* '''Needs Sources''': Sources for birth/death/marriage dates and locations, and attached family profiles (particularly her parents) are needed. ~~~~ ''Notes:'' When you save your edits to the profile, the four tildes (~~~~) "sign" the entry with a link to your profile page and the date/time. == US Southern Colonies Project Maintenance Categories By Team == See [[Space: US Southern Colonies Project Maintenance Categories By Team|US Southern Colonies Project Maintenance Categories By Team]] for the project teams that work each maintenance category.

This generic example profile is not intended to be used rigidly, but as a quick-look guide that covers basic elements required by WikiTree guidelines (such as Biography and Sources headings) and their placement (such as stickers going below Biography). The basics can lead to a wide variety of presentations, as exhibited by the profiles showcased on WikiTree's [[Examples]] page. (It was selecting a profile for that page that was responsible for the creation of this page! See [[#Background|below]] for details.) WikiTree requires Biography and Sources sections at a minimum. Generally, profiles within the scope of the US Southern Colonies Project will also need a Research Notes section. Rule of thumb: : Genealogical and biographical information supported by reliable sources go in the Biography section and Research goes in the Research Notes section. In other words, the profile’s Biography section presents what’s known and the Research Notes section is where one finds details about how it’s known, discussion of disputed information, and explanations about any Research Note Boxes or notes about maintenance categories on the profile. ---- {{US Southern Colonist|Jamestown}} '''Note''': Add a brief statement with a link to "[[#Research Notes|Research Notes (below)]]" if there's a problem that needs to be flagged for people viewing the profile. For an example, see [[Lound-17|Mary Lound's profile]]. == Biography == {{US Southern Colonist Sticker|Jamestown}} Biographical information with inline source citations.Such as this one. (Because the examples in the "What it looks like in edit view" are within "nowiki" tags, this is the only inline citation that will appear under the Sources heading.) === Vitals === : If the profile is long and detailed, especially if there are discussions about inaccurate or disputed information, consider adding a "Vitals" section that includes a brief summary of the person's vitals - born, parents; married, spouse/spouses; children; death - with inline citations. [[Help: Biographies]] says such a summary can be given above the Biography heading (without a heading created by ==), but if the profile has a lot of headings created by == such a "text only" summary at the very top of the profile may get overlooked. == Research Notes== Notes as needed. This is usually where discussions of disputed and/or inaccurate information can be found. (Sometimes such information is included as a footnote.) If you used a Research Note box at the top of the profile (see [[Help:Research_Note_Boxes]]), this is where people generally look for an explanation, although sometimes the explanation is given in the biography's text or in a footnote. If you added a maintenance category (see [[:Category: US Southern Colonies Project Maintenance Categories]]), explain why here. If you add info using just a bold heading, do so before any subheadings created with === (such as "Disputed Origins"). === Disputed Origins === :This is the most frequently used heading when the discussion is about identifying the person's parents. For details of what to include in "Disputed Origins" (or Disputed Spouse, or...), see the project's draft edit guidance ([[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Project_Editing_Guidance|here]]). === Conflated Profile === : Add notes here if you add the Conflated Research Note box (for project parameters you can use with {{Conflated}} see [[:Category: US Southern Colonies, Conflated Profiles|US Southern Colonies, Conflated Profiles]]). : Once the problem has been resolved, you may be able to simply delete this section and add "top-of-profile" text pointing people to the other profiles that are sometimes confused with this one. If that seems insufficient, many people use the Wikipedia practice of having a "Disambiguation" section, which would replace the now-resolved "Conflated Profile" section. : In some cases, even more is needed - see for example the "top-of-profile text" on the profile for [[Jones-6845|Peter Jones]] that links to the space page "[[Space:Virginia Peter Joneses|Virginia Peter Joneses]]" which serves to help keep straight the direct line of several generations of Peter Joneses and others. == Sources == :[Bulleted source list(s) and headings such as "See also" are optional.] == Acknowledgements == Click the Changes tab to see edits to this profile.

Thank you to everyone who contributed. = DNA Information = If you select the relationship status of "'''Confirmed with DNA'''", you '''must''' have appropriate support on the profiles of both parent and child. [[Help: DNA_Confirmation]] says a source citation is required and a 3rd-level DNA subsection under the Biography heading is optional. The US Southern Colonies Project asks that you include both, as pre-1776 DNA confirmation takes a bit more explanation than the example for a match between second cousins once removed given [[Help:DNA_Confirmation_Example|here]]. Additional examples are [[Help:DNA_Confirmation|here]], along with the note "If your match is beyond a third cousin (such as a third cousin once removed, a fourth cousin, etc.) see [[Help:Triangulation]]." So as not to interrupt the flow of the biography, the DNA subsection should follow other text and subsections in the Biography section. :''Note'' - Suggested headings include "DNA", "DNA Evidence", "DNA Research", "DNA Information", or "Confirmed with DNA" (in other words, the project is flexible about the heading, so long as it has "DNA" in it). Because pre-1776 Confirmation with DNA is relatively rare, the project recommends adding "top-of-profile text", along the lines of the following: '''Note''': DNA evidence confirms that [name of mother or father] is [name of profile person]'s [mother or father].WikiTree requires a source citation. The US Southern Colonies Project recommends doing so using a named ref tag. See details [[#DNA|below]]. == Biography == (required 2nd-level heading)
=== xxx === (any 3rd-level biographical subs)
=== DNA === (last 3rd-level subheading under Biography)
== Research Notes == (optional 2nd-level heading)
== Sources == (required 2nd-level heading)
'''For profiles that have DNA info, but not enough to select "Confirmed with DNA"''', you can still have top-of-profile text, but you should have details under Research Notes. For example: '''Note''': DNA evidence examined to date is discussed [[#DNA Research|below]]. Another cousin from a third documented branch is sought for the [[Triangulation]] needed to "Confirm with DNA". == Biography ==

---- = Background = In December 2020, we polled members of the [[Project: US Southern Colonies|US Southern Colonies Project]] about which profile should be selected to represent the project on WikiTree's [[Examples]] page. They were asked to select one of four model profiles listed on the Bio Builders Team page at the time and also asked for write-in suggestions. Comments received in response to that poll led to the creation of this generic examples profile. One of the comments was to stress that there is no single "right way" to create a good profile - that point is proved not only by the profiles on the [[Examples]] page but also by the write-in suggestions, and will be reflected in the profiles we select to add to that page. Yup, "profiles" - turns out we couldn't pick just one, the scope of the project is just too broad! It runs from Maryland to Georgia and from the earliest colonists up to 4 July 1776 (the date which, for WikiTree purposes, the United States began, ending the colonial period). As such, the number of profiles within the project's scope is enormous (to request that the project manage a profile, see [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Managed_Profile_Requests|this page]]) and the range of profiles it manages runs from problematic to notable, including quite a lot of ordinary people as well as those who generate a lot of interest. As a result, both choosing a profile to represent the project on WikiTree's [[Examples]] page and giving a "go-by" example of a project-managed profile are no easy tasks. Currently, the project has one profile on the examples page, representing Georgia, and is working on four others, to represent Maryland, Virginia, Jamestown, and the Carolinas. These profiles will represent the wide geographic range of the project and, with the other [[Examples|Example]] profiles, the wide range of styles used across WikiTree to tell our ancestors' stories or, as Province of Maryland Team Leader Jack Day put it, the "different styles in response to different challenges. For instance, if a person is covered thoroughly on Wikipedia, a shorter biography focused on the genealogical data of birth, marriage, death and children may be most appropriate." For others, there may be "substantial information out there that had never been assembled together in as useful a way, and in addition... much misinformation in circulation that had to be addressed." Length was one of the concerns expressed by project members - not only length of the biography but also the "Acknowledgements", which is an optional section that some prefer to omit. Another concern was that finding valid genealogical information in complex and lengthy biographies, such as Jack describes, could be frustrating. This example profile was created to offer possible solutions, such as adding a "Vitals" section. In some areas, this example profile is more detailed than the information and example profile provided by WikiTree (see [[Help: Biographies]]), but it is "style light" compared to what's covered by WikiTree's [[:Category: Styles and Standards|Styles and Standards]]. For something in between, check out the project's [[Space:US Southern Colonies Bio Builders Team |Bio Builders Team page]] and draft edit guidance ([[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Project_Editing_Guidance|here]]).

Other WikiTree projects' reliable sources pages - such as the Magna Carta Project ([[Space:Magna Carta Project Reliable Sources|Magna Carta Project Reliable Sources]]) and the European Aristicrats Project ([[Space:EuroAristo Project Reliable Sources|European Aristocrats Project Reliable Sources]]) - should be consulted when looking for colonists' ancestors. Three sources frequently used to support a connection between colonists and the aristocracy are not considered reliable by those projects, and should be considered unreliable for colonists' profiles: * '''Burke reference works''': Avoid all Burke reference works (including ''Burke's Peerage'', ''Burke's Dormant and Extinct Peerages'', and ''Burke's Extinct and Dormant Baronetcies''). They have many errors. 19th century editions are especially unreliable. Cokayne's ''Complete Peerage'' covers some of the same ground (see [[#Cokayne|Cokayne, above]]). * '''[http://our-royal-titled-noble-and-commoner-ancestors.com/ Lewis's Database]''': Marlyn Lewis's "Our Royal Titled Noble and Commoner Ancestors" (ORTNCA) is mostly based on Douglas Richardson's work, which is considered reliable "with conditions" (see Richardson under [[#Biographical Compilations|Biographical Compilations, above]]), but care must be taken even when it appears that Richardson is the source of information in the database (Lewis includes citations at the end of a phrase or sentence, and sometimes the person's name is the only information given by Richardson). * '''[http://thepeerage.com/ Lundy Database]''': Darryl Lundy's database (thepeerage.com) is largely based on Burke's work. While it can be helpful in identifying possible relationships and lines of inquiry, its use as a source in its own right should be avoided as far as possible. ===[https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Uncertain#What_are_examples_of_sources_that_provide_uncertain_information.3F Examples of Sources that Provide Uncertain Information]=== === Colony Neutral / Multiple Colonies === :The following sources should not be cited and are subject to removal from project-managed profiles if found. '''If these are the only sources on a profile, please replace it with something better prior to removal.''' * Yates' US and International Marriages Index.

It contains more than 880,000 linked family records, with lineages from throughout the world, including colonial America, the British Isles, Switzerland, and Germany. Many of these lineages extend back to nobility and renowned historical figures. In fact, one of the things the Millennium File focuses on is linking to European nobility and royalty." * Edmund West Family Data collections, per their own description, "should be used to find primary sources." * UNSOURCED user-contributed family trees, including (but not limited to): ** Pedigree Resource Files on familysearch.org ** Public or any other family trees from Ancestry.com ** Geni.com - World Family Tree - RootsWeb / If the tree cites reliable proofs, find the proofs and cite them instead. **A personal family tree. **Find-A-Grave. Find-A-Grave profiles rarely cite reliable proofs. When they do, find the proofs and cite them. **Transcriptions of documents (wills, etc.) found online that are not published. **A discussion in a genealogy forum. If the discussion cites reliable proofs, find the proofs and cite them. **Books with family trees/family histories that do not cite reliable sources. ''These books are secondary sources and should be seen as a starting point.'' Further research is needed to confirm those relationships. Additionally, it was very popular in the late 1800s and early 1900s to publish family genealogies. These are much like the online trees of today-- their quality varies depending on the extent to which they cite their sources. Some contain accurate information-- especially about the people living within the last 50 years prior to the publication date; but many have been subsequently proven to be incomplete, inaccurate, or in a few rare cases, [[:Category:Frauds_and_Fabrications|downright fraudulent]]. Absent better sources, these old published genealogies can be cited or included under "See also:". A goal of the project, however, is to find more original documentation, closer to the time of the event being cited. * '''Find-a-Grave''' is a user-contributed site, and as such is generally excluded from the list of ''reliable'' sources. Please do not make changes to a profile's vitals, including identification of relations, based solely on information transcribed on a Find-a-Grave profile. The exception is that if the Find-a-Grave profile contains a photo of a ''contemporaneous'' gravestone (i.e., a gravestone created and placed at the time of the person's death) and includes information about the person's death, you can cite the Find-a-Grave profile for the death information, and for other information that appears on the gravestone. Please understand, though, that even gravestones may contain erroneous information. * '''Lineage Society Applications.''' Lineage societies such as Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR), Society for Colonials Wars, and others, vary with regard to the proofs that they require for membership. And some, like DAR, have changed their rules over time. Therefore, such applications should be used more as finding aids than actual sources. When looking at a lineage society application, please check what sources they cite, and then seek to find those actual sources. *Links to sources on '''paid subscription sites''' such as Ancestry, FindMyPast, and MyHeritage can be frustrating for WikiTree members and visitors without access to these sites. We recommend searching for a freely available copy of the source document on sites such as FamilySearch, Google Books, USGenWeb, Archive.org, or HathiTrust. ::If the source record is only available to paid subscribers, when providing the URL please also extract as much information as possible, such as relevant names, dates, and the source of the original data. ::[[Project:US_Southern_Colonies|Return to US Southern Colonies Project ]] :::{| cellpadding="8" Valign="top" |- |colspan="4" align="center"|''Quick-links for Sources pages''

In carrying out its activities, the project ''manages'' person profiles in order to: * reduce conflicts and improve the accuracy of profiles of US Southern Colonists * research and improve profiles of notable US Southern Colonists * preserve profiles of US Southern Colonists that represent extensive work The project accomplishes this in a variety of ways including: * ''collaborating'' with other WikiTreers * ''following'' the profile of a US Southern Colonist by adding the project to the Trusted List * ''managing'' and additionally, in some cases, ''protecting'' the profile of a US Southern Colonist This page presents the criteria by which the project decides to ''manage'' and ''protect'' person profiles—known as Project-Managed Profiles (PMP) and Project-Protected Profiles (PPP). This page additionally points to other pages with additional, more detailed information and discussion. == Criteria for Management and Protection == '''PMP''': The [[Project:US Southern Colonies|US Southern Colonies Project]] [[Help:Project-Managed Profiles|'''''manages''''']] person profiles of [[:Category:US Southern Colonists|US Southern Colonists]] meeting at least ''one'' of these criteria: # "[[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Project-Managed_Profiles#What is "Controversial"?|controversial]] profiles of historically-significant people and widely-shared ancestors"[[Help:Project-Managed Profiles#Why do projects manage profiles?|Help:Project-Managed Profiles, scope]] # profiles of notable people[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability_%28people%29 Wikipedia:Notability (people)], members of important colonial families, and other widely-shared ancestors # profiles that represent extensive work that should be preservedThe [[Space:US Southern Colonies Managed Profiles Teams|Managed Profiles Team]], working with the responsible [[Space:US Southern Colonies Teams#Colonial Teams|Colonial Team]], will make this determination. '''PPP''': The project additionally [[Help:Project Protection|'''''protects''''']] its project-managed person profiles if they meet [[Help:Project Protecting and Merging#Which profiles should be protected?|WikiTree's Project Protection requirements]]. There were approximately 2 million US Southern Colonists, most currently without a WikiTree profile. It is not possible or necessary for the project to manage all US Southern Colonist profiles, or even just those meeting the criteria for PMP and PPP. The [[Space:US Southern Colonies Managed Profiles Teams|Managed Profiles Team]], working with the [[Space:US Southern Colonies Teams#Colonial Teams|Colonial Teams]], therefore exercises its best judgement in deciding which profiles are managed. '''Adjunct''': The project also manages and protects a small number of [[:Category:US Southern Colonists Adjunct|adjunct profiles]] outside the stated scope of the project that are the source of controversy for project profiles. == Profile Review and Management == The [[Space:US Southern Colonies Managed Profiles Teams|Managed Profiles Team]] reviews person profiles of US Southern Colonists against the above criteria and decides whether to make the profile a project-managed profile or a project-managed/project-protected profile. The project manages the profile along with the profile's existing profile manager(s), which may also include other [[Help:Projects|projects]]. For more information about the team's activities and processes, including more detail about the information on this page, see: * [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Managed_Profiles_Process|Processes]] * [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Managed_Profiles_Workspace|Workspace]] === Managed Profile Request Form === If you want the [[Space:US Southern Colonies Managed Profiles Teams|Managed Profiles Team]] to review a person profile for possible project management, or for possible removal from project management, please fill out the [[Space:US Southern Colonies Managed Profile Requests|Managed Profile Requests form]]. The team is generally able to get back to you within 5 days. Here is a [https://plus.wikitree.com/function/WTWatchListTime/WatchListTime.htm?Account=WikiTree-24 timeline] of person profiles under project management. == What is "Controversial"? == "On WikiTree we collaborate on one family tree." But controversy does arise. Here are some examples that might result in the [[Space:US Southern Colonies Managed Profiles Teams|Managed Profiles Team]] designating a person profile as project-managed or project-managed/project-protected: * The person's claimed origins or relationships (i.e., parents, spouses, or children) are disputed, especially when the disputed claims are frequently repeated in public genealogies that do not cite [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Project_Reliable_Sources|reliable sources]]. * The person or their individual facts are easily confused (conflated) with someone else in the same area at about the same time. * The person profile is often duplicated, resulting in repetitive merge effort. * The person's life was controversial, resulting in differing opinions as to how their biography should be presented. * The change history of the profile shows a recent history of conflicting changes by two or more WikiTreers, and the misunderstanding and disagreement is not being resolved between them. These are just examples. The Managed Profiles Team will consider the person profile against the criteria as well as the entirety of the profile's history in making its decision. == Footnotes & Sources ==

Halle, 1735.,” Columbus State University Archives and Special Collections, accessed August 19, 2020. === Colonial History === :Georgia was the last Colony before the American Revolution. It was founded 50 years after the other twelve. Politician [[Oglethorpe-17|James Oglethorpe]] envisioned Georgia as a refuge for released debtors and the poor. In 1732, King George II approved the colony's charter; the state is named in that king's honor. :On February 12, 1733, Oglethorpe and more than 100 colonists unloaded their ship, [[Space:Full_Passenger_List_of_the_Ann|the Anne]], and settled in present day Savannah. === Government Structure === :Georgia was different than the other colonies because it received money from Parliament to get started. It also was the only Colony to prohibit slavery and the import of alcohol. the Settlers had no control over their Government and it was entirely ruled by the Trustees. James Oglethorpe was appointed Governor of the new Colony. ==== Original Structure ==== :King George II granted a charter for twenty-oneyears to a Board of Trustees for the land between Savannah and the Altamaha ricer and westward to the South Sea. :Originally, there were twenty-one trustees named in the 1732 charter for establishing the Colony of Georgia. Fifty more Trustees were added between 1732 and 1755. :The liberties of Englishmen were guaranteed to the colonies, and freedom in religion to all except Catholics. ==== Evolution of Government Structure ==== :The colonists were not happy with the restrictions placed on the colony. After 12 years as governor, Oglethorpe returned to England bearing their demands. They wanted to be able to have alcohol and slaves, to participate in their own government, and demanded land reform. They were granted their requests. Alcohol was allowed into the colony mostly because it was thought that the importation of alcohol would improve trade. There was strong opposition to slavery, particularly from the religious immigrants, such as the Salzburgers, but they were in the minority. In 1749, Georgia became a slave colony. :In 1752, Georgia became a royal colony. The Trustees were unable to establish self-government and as such abandoned the idea before the twenty-one yeaar charter had expired. :Freeman were given the right to vote (unless they were Catholic) which led to the people electing an Assembly. The Governor was still appointed by the King of England. [https://www.jstor.org/stable/40578924 The Failure of the Colony of Georgia Under the Trustees] by Randall M. Miller === Settlers === :After the original restrictions of no slavery or alcohol were released, Georgia began to grow. Although Georgia still remained the least populated of the twelve colonies because it was mostly wilderness, Savannah and surrounding areas saw tremendous growth. :Georgia was a haven for those in the English Debtors Prisons, the presecuted Salzburgers, Scottish Highlanders and even John Wesley who started Methodism. *''[[Space:A_List_of_the_Early_Settlers_of_Georgia|A List of the Early Settlers of Georgia]]'' Coulter and Saye, editors.

It is managed by the [[Space:US Southern Colonies Province of Maryland Team|Province of Maryland team]] of the [[Project:US_Southern_Colonies|US Southern Colonies Project]]. === Colony Origin/History === The Province of Maryland was an English and later British colony in North America that existed from 1632 until 1776, when it joined the other twelve of the Thirteen Colonies in rebellion against Great Britain and became the U.S. state of Maryland. Its first settlement and capital was St. Marys City, in the southern end of St. Marys County, which is a peninsula in the Chesapeake Bay and is also bordered by four tidal rivers. The province began as a proprietary colony of the English Lord Baltimore, who wished to create a haven for English Catholics in the new world at the time of the European wars of religion. Although Maryland was an early pioneer of religious toleration in the English colonies, religious strife among Anglicans, Puritans, Catholics, and Quakers was common in the early years, and Puritan rebels briefly seized control of the province. In 1689, the year following the Glorious Revolution, John Coode led a Protestant rebellion that expelled Lord Baltimore from power in Maryland. Power in the colony was restored to the family in 1715 when Charles Calvert, 5th Baron Baltimore, swore publicly that he was a Protestant. Despite early competition with the colony of Virginia to its south, and the Dutch colony of New Netherland to its north, the Province of Maryland developed along very similar lines to Virginia. Its early settlements and populations centers tended to cluster around the rivers and other waterways that empty into the Chesapeake Bay and, like Virginia, Maryland's economy quickly became centered around the farming of tobacco for sale in Europe. The need for cheap labor, and later with the mixed farming economy that developed when tobacco prices collapsed, led to a rapid expansion of indentured servitude and, later, forcible immigration and enslavement of Africans. The Province of Maryland was an active participant in the events leading up to the American Revolution, and echoed events in New England by establishing committees of correspondence and hosting its own tea party similar to the one that took place in Boston. By 1776 the old order had been overthrown, as Marylanders signed the Declaration of Independence, forcing the end of British colonial rule.Wikipedia, This page was last modified on 7 August 2014 at 20:12.Text is available under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License; additional terms may apply.

The United States Project focuses on profiles of people in American states post-1776; and has projects for each state. See [[Project:Maryland]]. Team Leader: Jack Day. As Team Leader, I have focused on encouraging team members to share their Maryland connections and interests, and developing lists of research resources for colonial Maryland (see Resources, below). I also expanded the scope of our efforts to include identification of enslaved persons during this period. (20 November 2020) Team Members: * [[Baker-13902|Mary Baker]] - Researching my Tullos/Rodham ancestry believed to have originated in Maryland and Virginia. *[[Nowell-324|Dola (Nowell) Acree]] has done a lot of research on the Nowells of Dorchester County, Maryland who eventually changed their surname to Noel, plus these others: Hargis, Lower, and Nalley. * [[Albertini-1|John Albertini]] My colonial ancestors were Ayers, Brown, Chew, Harris, Randall, Wynne in MD, PA, VA. *[[Berg-4697|Jen Berg]] - * [[Boone-1915|Toni Boone]] joining Colony of Virginia and Province of Maryland.

I have many ancestors who lived in the Provinces of Maryland and Virginia before 1700. Surnames include: Bell/Beall, Bradley, deBarrette, Cecil, Duvall, Fendall, Holloway, Mackall, Mobberley, Nuthall, Odell, Prather, Ridgely, Smith, Sprigg, Van Swearingen, and Woods. I enjoy collaborating with others to tell the true stories of our ancestors. I'm a member of the UPenn 17th Century DNA project, https://rfleskes.wixsite.com/chesapeakestudy. I'm renewing my research into Elizabeth LNABU and her two husbands, John Holloway and John Nuthall and soon will be updating their biographies and to a lesser extent their daughter, Priscilla and her husband William Stevens.

My maternal line arrived or migrated to South Carolina before the 1700s from North Carolina, Virginia, and Maryland. My paternal family pioneered into Kentucky from North Carolina, Virginia, and Maryland when it was still a part of Virginia in the late 1700s. *[[Ellis-15426|Jerry Ellis]] Lazenbys show up in Maryland in the mid-late 1600s and moved into what became Montgomery County in the early 1700s. Lazenby family, included seven documented patriots, sold the farm after the Revolutionary War and resettled in Virginia, North Carolina, and Georgia. *[[Hudson-6932|Yolaine Hudson]] - Paternal side came to America during the colonial period in the 1600's and resided in VA and MD for the most part until NC came available, then many migrated to KY, etc....our early colonists- Archer, Bailey, Ball, Baugh, Bolling, Burris, Butt, Byrd, Chambers, Chewning, Chiles, Colclough, Croshaw, Durham, Farrar, Field, Holloway, Holt, Hudson, Jefferson, Moore, Tandy, and West *[[Kenny-549|Seely Foley]] - discovered her colonial Maryland ancestors while writing her seminar paper for a degree in history at Hood College. She's fascinated with this period of our history and thinks Maryland's is uniquely interesting. Her Maryland ancestors include: Richard Acton, the first settler on land of today's Annapolis, Jonathan Hanson, who built the first mill on the Jones Falls and Thomas Cole, an early claimant of Baltimore City. She enjoys writing long, sourced profiles revealing both the good and the bad of our forebears. Other surnames include: Martin, Hooker, Buck, Mead, Morgan and Murry. *[[McPherson-783|Stephanie Grohol]] *[[Stephens-10192|Donna Harris]] My maternal family immigrated mostly from the UK and settled in Maryland-- Middleton, Wheeler, Smallwood, Coghill, Bayne, Beale and others. *[[King-14976|Mollie King]] My maternal Prout line is my passion - trying to sort all Prout lines of Maryland, some of which date back to the 1600s. Allied lines are Sunderland (1669), Ringgold (1650), Merrick (1600s), Benny, Cryer, Leonard. They span the Eastern and Western Shores of the Chesapeake Bay. My paternal King line dates solidly in Montgomery County and Prince Georges County, Maryland back to the mid-1700's - when the John Kings become harder to sort out. Allied families are Hurley, Burdette, Miles, Duckett, Waring, Waters. *[[Oxford-768|Mary Koester]] - I am working to prove that my Hobbs ancestors came through Washington and Lee Counties during the 1700's from Maryland. As of now, I am at a brick wall for proof in 1801 Tennessee. I am also working on the Oxford family in North Carolina. Other surnames include Herrin, Taylor, and Holloway. * [[Lake-1774|Steve Lake]] Returning to Southern Colonies and Maryland, Virginia, Carolinas, Georgia Teams. I'm returning to SCP, after a break, with a better sense of how important the many teams of volunteers are to the integrity and quality of WikiTree. Several of my family lines (Green, Scott, Cain and other associated families, Butt, Dean, DaVault, Wisehart, Prior, Custer) reach back into several of these colonies. *[[Little-3000|James Little]] - about James * [[Mankin-102|Michael Mankin]] has early ancestors from Virginia and Maryland *[[Martin-37954|David Martin]] *[[Mazouat-1|Paul Mazouat]]- My wife's family is from the eastern shore (Clough/Clow, Kirby, Parrott, Morgan) back into the 1600's. I'm also interested in colonial Delaware. *[[McAdoo-199|RL McAdoo]] Researching Families McAdoo/McAdow, Stewart, Larkin, and other founder families of Buffalo and Alamance Presbyterian churches, Guilford (now Greensboro) NC area, and Sinking Springs Presbyterian churche near present day Abingdon VA, all pre-1776. Arrivals from Ulster or Scotland at Port of Baltimore, Philadelphia, or Charleston. *[[McClain-3310|Scott McClain]] I've spent a lot of time working on the Walling and Blevins families in Maryland in the 1730s and have several other ancestor lines that dead end in Maryland around that same time. Particular interest in indentured immigrants and the frontier settlements. *[[Mitchell-17863| Sherrie Mitchell]] - Also works on Team Virginia and Jamestown Team. My ancestors are in VA or MD early on. My MD surnames include Mitchell, Wheeler, Elliot, Boswell, Greer, Payne, Stump, Nichols, Ayers, Musgrove, Lazenby, Box *[[Gist-771|Debbie Nance]] ancestors in Maryland, Colony of Virginia, Province of North Carolina and Province of South Carolina *[[Prouse-92|Ran L Prouse]] Ancestor, George Prowse was living with Joseph and his wife at Archer's Hope. John Johnson and his wife Ann & 2 children were also living at Archer's Hope. I am looking for a possible family connection to Joseph Johnson. Found potential parents to Joseph. I have a large database of family in Maryland. I believe my research skills and many online resources would be helpful. Also joined Jamestown team. *[[Roe-2745|Fred Roe]]- My paternal line of Roes had a large presence on the Eastern Shore and the later "half" were in Greensboro. I, however, was born in Boston, Mass and raised in a suburb. This is because dad had gone to New England for higher education. On that journey he ended in the Cambridge, Mass area where he met my mom who was from northern NH. Her dad was a Warfield a family with a long history on the Eastern Shore starting with Richard Warfield Sr. It seems doubtful that these 2 lines had ever cross paths in Maryland! But I could be surprised. I know a lot about the Warfields due to a book on them. For the Roe's I had a "Brick Wall" pertaining to my 2X granddad's parentagel I recently got a big clue on them via the Genealogical Society of the Eastern Shore which I recently discovered! So as a result of all this I am primarily interested in recording the Early families of which I have gone quite a bit of material. *[[Saunders-3584|Rick Saunders]] I have been doing research for over 50 years, and professionally for 26, but am now mostly retired.

Carolina is taken from the Latin word for Charles (Carolus), honoring [[Stuart-1|King Charles I of England]] (who made the original land grant in 1629). North Carolina was formed in 1729 when the Province of Carolina was divided in two. North Carolina was admitted to Union on November 21, 1789 as the 12th State to ratify the constitution. Some important dates In North Carolina History * 1492-1692. Diseases carried by the foreigners brought about the demise of about 95 percent of the [[:Category:Cherokee|Cherokee Nation]] during the first 200 years of European presence. * 1587, North Carolina was first settled in 1587. 121 settlers led by [[White-20182|John White]] landed on present-day Roanoke Island on July 22, 1587. It was the first English settlement in the New World. On August 18, 1587, White’s daughter gave birth to [[White-20183|Virginia Dare]], the first English child born in the New World. By 1590, however, all of the colonists on the island had disappeared.

This settlement grew quickly because it had a natural harbor and allowed easy access to trade with the West Indies. Charles Town soon became the principal seat of government for the entire region.

The small group commissioned colonial officials and authorized the governor and his council to grant lands in the name of the Lords Proprietors. In 1669, philospher [[Locke-2|John Locke]] wrote the Fundamental Constitutions as a model for the government of Carolina. [[:Category: Albemarle County, North Carolina|Albemarle County (now extict)]] was divided into local governmental units called precincts. Initially there were three precincts--Berkley, Carteret, and Shaftesbury--but as the colony expanded to the south and west, new precincts were created. By 1729, there were a total of eleven precincts--six in Albemarle County and five in [[:Category:Bath County, North Carolina|Bath County]], which had been created in 1696. Although the Albemarle Region was the first permanent settlement in the Carolina area, another populated region soon developed around present-day Charleston, South Carolina. Because of the natural harbor and easier access to trade with the West Indies, more attention was given to developing the Charleston area than her northern counterparts. For a twenty-year period, 1692-1712, the colonies of North and South Carolina existed as one unit of government. Although North Carolina still had her own assembly and council, the governor of Carolina resided in Charleston and a deputy governor appointed for North Carolina.

Dissenters typically included Presbyterians, Quakers, Baptists, Congregationalists, Unitarians, and after 1795, Methodists (too late for this discussion) in Carolina. Their unpopularity with Anglicans stemmed from their radical ideas and a continuing fear that, once empowered, they might disestablish the church. They rejected the church's thirty-nine Articles of Faith, rejected the Act of Uniformity (1662) and the Test Act (1673), both of which limited in their civil and political rights. References: *[http://www.carolana.com/Carolina/Settlement/barbadian_settlers.html Carolina - The Barbadian Settlers, et.al.] North Carolina was the site of the first Jewish settler in a British colony in North America when Joachim Ganz, a native of Prague, arrived in 1585, well before the much heralded date of the 1654 settlement in New Amsterdam, on Raleigh's second expedition to Roanoke Island. Ganz, a metallurgist, returned to England two years later. John Locke's Fundamental Constitutions of 1669 opened the Carolinas to "Jews, heathens, and other dissenters," but the colony, beset by sectarian politics, was inhospitable. The 1776 state constitution included a religious test that restricted public office to Protestants. With few navigable rivers, a swampy coast, and a forested terrain, North Carolina lacked commercial opportunities for Jews. In the early colonial era a few Jewish settlers followed coastal and inland trade routes from Virginia and South Carolina. A 1702 petition protested illegal votes by undesirables, including Jews. Jewish names appear on Masonic rolls and militia rosters. In the Charlotte area were storekeepers and Revolutionary War veterans Abraham Moses, Solomon Simons, and Aaron Cohen. A 1759 document identifies Joseph Laney as a Jew. Newport merchant Aaron Lopez sent 37 ships to North Carolina between 1761 and 1775. Eighteenth-century Sephardic Jews in Wilmington included Rivera, Gomez, David, and Levy. A rabbi, Jacob Abroo, is reported to have died in New Berne in 1790. The Benjamin family, whose son Judah became a U.S. senator and later a Confederate statesman, lived in Wilmington and Fayetteville after 1813.

They did not bury their treasures, they spent and traded them. Pirates kept the Spanish so busy that the British were able to hold onto their Colonies. Blackbeard, also known as Edward Teach and believed to have been a native of England, was killed off the North Carolina Outer Banks in November 1718. He had begun his pirating career just five years earlier, when he joined the crew of a Caribbean sloop, manned by pirate Benjamin Hornigold. Blackbeard was a notorious pirate whose long, dark beard inspired his nickname. After capturing more than 30 ships during his pirating career, Blackbeard was slain during a bloody battle on Ocracoke Island off of North Carolina, according to History.com.

To the more inland tribes, especially the Tuscaroras and the Corees, this was an indication not to be mistaken that the days of their prosperity were fast numbering. Grieved and exasperated at the prospect before them, they now combined with other tribes to utterly exterminate the new settlers. This purpose they attempted to carry into effect; and so successful were they, that in one night, October 2nd, 1711, they massacred one hundred and thirty persons belonging to the settlements along the Roanoke River and Pamlico Sound. A few colonists, escaping, hastened to South Carolina for assistance. Governor Craven immediately dispatched to their aid nearly a thousand men, under Colonel Barnwell. On his arrival, he defeated the enemy in several actions; and, at length, pursued them to their fortified town, which capitulated, and peace was concluded. But it proved of short duration. The Natives renewed their hostilities, and the assistance of the southern colony was again involved. In response, Colonel Moore set out for the hostile territory, with a competent force; — forty white men; and eight-hundred friendly Indians. They reduced the fort of the Tuscaroras, and with it took eight hundred prisoners. Broken and disheartened by this defeat, the tribe, in 1713, migrated north, and became the sixth nation of the great Iroquois Confederacy; — sometimes called the Five, and after this event, the Six Nations. In 1715, a treaty was concluded with the Corees.

In the early years the line between indentured servants and African slaves or laborers was fluid. Some Africans were allowed to earn their freedom before slavery became a lifelong status. Most of the free colored families formed in North Carolina before the Revolution were descended from relationships or marriages between free white women and enslaved or free African or African-American men. Many had migrated or were descendants of migrants from colonial Virginia. As the flow of indentured laborers to the colony decreased with improving economic conditions in Great Britain, more slaves were imported and the state's restrictions on slavery hardened. The economy's growth and prosperity was based on slave labor, devoted first to the production of tobacco.

'''Identify Colonists' Profiles''' and their descendants in any of the Southern Colonies in America, what is now known at the United States of America and then add: # ''Merge Duplicates'' : In the case of duplicate profiles, merge duplicate profiles directly into the PPPd profile. For more explanation of merges see:[[Project_protecting_and_merging|Merging PPPd Profiles]] OR [https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/51703/behind-merges-identifying-lowest-numbered-profile-correct Merging Procedure and Why] on G2G. # '''Contribute to [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Reliable_Sources|Reliable Sources Page]]''': If you come across a related resource for a colony or related sub project, please add this to the appropriate Resource Page. # '''Profile Improvement''': Add biographical information with documented sources in accordance with the [[:Category:Styles_and_Standards|Styles and Standards Policy]] of WikiTree. # '''Categories''': Add appropriate categories to profiles to link the individual. If a person lived in a particular area, on a plantation, fought in a battle, was part of a military group, is buried in a cemetery, etc. For more information or help see the sub topic below, contact a member in the [[Project:Categorization|Categorization Project]], or check out [https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/tag/categorization Categorization] questions in G2G. ==Project Categories== *[[:Category:US_Southern_Colonies_Project]] List of Project Members *[[:Category: US Southern Colonists]] Please see individual sub-project pages for further project categories. === Category or Cemetery Set Up === We have some experts who have volunteered to assist you in setting up categories and also cemetery categories. What is great about using these tools? I'd have to say, what isn't?! Categories and especially cemetery categories can identify other individuals who were perhaps family members or neighbors (which in this project, are probably related somehow :) due to the circumstances. Categories can point you to a possible connection or even resources that you can use to knock down brick walls and fill out your tree, so please make use of them. We all benefit! *[[Thompson-9019|Dan Thompson]] is a WikiTree Leader Emeritus, co-leader of the US Cemetery project, and a long time member of the Categorization project. Excellent source. *[[Smith-40964|Phil Smith]] is a WikiTree Leader Emeritus (means he's in semi retirement), former leader of the Categorization project, and overall genius regarding the structure of categories.

Extensive experience with Virginia. *[[Day-1904|Jack Day]]. Since I have so many ancestors there, I maintain a special focus on Maryland in the 1600s, and a general interest in Maryland since then. I also have undertaken Maryland responsibility for the U. S. History project. I try to maintain a full library of related real (non-digital) books on Maryland genealogy and history! *[[Crawford-5164 | Adiene Crawford]] Working on Texas, ALAMO, Remember the Alamo, First Families of Texas. *[[Person-933|Aubrey Teeter]] A direct descendant of one of the regulators in N.C., Christopher Nation and original settlers in Virginia, William Claiborne, and Tennessee. So is my wife with descendants of early Virginia including Digges, Herndon, Herring and Floyd. * [[Higdon-428|Brittany Higdon]] New here, hope I'm doing everything right! My ancestors associated with this project are on my paternal side and it looks like they were mostly Catholics fleeing religious persecution in England by settling in Maryland. Then they eventually moved to Kentucky where my grandfather was born and raised. My maternal grandfather also was from the South (Tennessee), but information for his side is scarce. * [[Lindquist-84|Norm Lindquist]] My wife's family goes back to Jamestown and my brother's wife's family settled in Western Virginia, now West Virginia. * [[Bumgardner-139| Amy Bumgardner-McAndrews]] My family goes back to Jamestown. My 6th Great Grandfather and his brother, John and James Patton, made over 35 trans Atlantic voyages, bringing new settlers here from Great Britain. My entire family settled in the Virginias, the Carolinas, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, and Louisiana. *[[Bartlett-4316|Dodie Bartlett]] I have many family members that have come from Virginia, North Carolina, Kentucky, Tennessee. Most of these are Cooke/Cook, Rucker, Beach, and several others. *[[Shannon-1438|Sandra Jean Shannon]] I'm not entirely sure that any of my actual relatives will track back that far here in the States to be honest...most were late comers to the party immigrating around 1800 or so but I have extensive family in Virginia and North Carolina. What brought me to the project however, was a profile I was working on for a friend's line that tracks probably back to 1652 in Henrico, Virginia if I can ever get all the connections sorted out. I'm happy to help where I can and always happy to hear about Fox, Harris, Williams, Cochran and Shoemaker lines in Virginia, North Carolina and Tennessee. *[[Brooks-7888|Tim Brooks]]Much of my family points toward Tennessee and North Carolina. I have family rumors that point to the "Lost Colony", and that is what I am interested in the most. My line of the Brooks clan moved to Southern Illinois around 1850 from East Tennessee. I would be ecstatic to trace back to John Brooke on Roanoke Island. * [[Thomas-10705 | Michael Thomas]] My wife's Murrays migrated from Pennsylvania to North Carolina, then on to South Carolina and Georgia as they opened up settlement, eventually ending up in Northern Alabama. *[[Combs-1904 | Tracie Combs-Cantu]] The Combs and Baker sides of my family all resided in colonial Virginia and North Carolina and then migrated to Kentucky, Tennessee and Virginia post-Revolutionary war due to land grants or following family. *[[Bentley-2133 | John Bentley]] I believe I'm connected to Jamestown and surrounding area by both my dad (Bentley) and my mom (Hatcher). I'm working now to find more documentation. I find the history of this time fascinating. I look forward to learning more. * [[Looper-49|Barb Beasley]] I have ancestors who settled early in E. TN and the Cumberland Plateau. *[[Bateman-1415|Sondra Bateman]] I have deep and old connections to the south, which include the names of Lovelace, Gorsuch, Baylor, Walker, Wythe, Todd, Courtenay, and the list goes on.... * [[Quackenbush-118|Carrie Quackenbush]] I have deep Virginian roots and am currently working on a Campbell County, Virginia One Place Study. *[[Knott-279|Gayel Knott]] I am interested in the Meador family coming from Essex County, Virginia. At least one of the related pages is Project Protected, and I want to be sure that editing I do is done correctly. * [[Ange-27|Daniel Ange]] I'm apparently descended from a number of families that settled in Colonial Virginia and North Carolina, and am mostly focused on trying to clean up and expand the Lanier and Peele families of that area. * [[Watson-11781| Kat Prawl]] The first serious genealogy research I started in roughly 1975 was on a colonial Virginia family. Since then I've found ancestors in every British American colony. My Southern families include: Meade, Walker, Keith, Everard, Tucker, Courtenay, Donelson, Caffery, Rutherford, Ralston, Wallace, Hackworth, England, Choate, Pennington, Osborne, Riggs, Phillips, Key, Alexander, Cashion, Renegar, Rooks, York, Shockley, Mangum/Mangrum, King, McClung, Shores, Rogers & Rousseau. * [[Lambert-1995|Nan Lambert]] I have Burns & Enloe lines in South Carolina, and I'm working on finding the earliest Lamberts in the southern colonies, in the hopes of breaking down my Lambert brick wall. * [[Brantley-559|Ron Levi]] Descendant of Brantleys, Lowthers, Wrights and Hagans (O Hagans) from Laurens, Bulloch, and Warren Counties in GA as well as Charles County, MD. I have DNA-confirmed relationships of slaves to their owners, my paternal 2nd great grandparents all. * [[Kay-1589|Karen Kay]] First get a good list of direct ancestors, then fan out from there. SC, LA, MS and TX focus, some GA. Always heard rumors we had American Indian blood but have not found proof. Quite the opposite in fact. Hmmm. * [[Brannan-365|Kathy (Brannan) Wills]] I have several ancestors that fit into this category. * [[Moseley-537|Debi Moseley]] Moseley, Brantley, Cowart/Coward, Sikes, Collins, Harris, Phillips, are my primary interests, but if someone connects with my family, I want to know! Almost all of my ancestral lines were colonists starting in Virginia, migrating southward to settle mainly in Georgia, namely Washington, Emanuel, Montgomery, Tattnall and Bulloch Counties. * [[Vincent-3081|Bill Vincent]] Most of my ancestors came to Kentucky from Virginia and North Carolina. Others came from Maryland, Delaware, and South Carolina. Many were pioneers who came to KY before statehood. Over 20 ancestors were Patriots. I've been researching my family since 1984, when I resumed my late mother's efforts. I am particularly knowledgeable in the families with ties to Edmonson and Grayson Counties in KY, with a database of over 100k persons. Thanks for creating this project. * [[Tissott-1|Rosemary Jones]] I'm involved with a YDNA study of the Jones men and my husband has deep links into Colonial Virginia moving down into Alabama. Counties in Virginia are usually Surry, Brunswick, and Nottoway with another branch of the family in Washington County. In Alabama the family is found in Montgomery. * [[McAdoo-199|Rich McAdoo]] I am studying the geography and mapping the paths of trade and migration along the trails, rivers, and wagon roads used for travel during the westward expansion of the frontier. * [[Lacey-1126| Bill Lacey]] Several of my ancestral lines passed through the southern colonies, especially Virginia, during the 1700s. They spread throughout the south with a good many getting to Texas/Arizona/New Mexico. My current focus is on the Lacy/Lacey, Morrell, and Matlock families. * [[Beezley-12|Doug Beezley]] Most Beasley's (any spelling) immigrating to the US began in colonial times 17th/18th century Virginia and Maryland. Many of them migrated early to North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia. Very few were found in Mid or Northern colonies. My Beasley/Beezley Haplotype immigrated as early as the mid 17th Century and soon migrated to Virginia and North Carolina. Another major Haplotype immigrated mid 17th century to Virginia. * [[Moore-25062| Sheryl Moore]] Many of my lines also came over prior to 1700 to VA and rather notable. I have started my tree from me and going back, but the Catlett line has intersected smack dab in the middle of VA in 1649 and in the project and so can add children to a Catlett listed and join the tree! There are others in my line that also follow this trend. * [[Lawrence-8235|Dave Lawrence]] I am a descendant of numerous Southern lines from the James River and Tidewater portions of Virginia and Maryland south through the Carolinas and west into the Appalachians. * [[Trigg-355|Angela Trigg]] Almost exclusively Virginia for my Southern ancestors, which include Robert "King" Carter, William Byrd of Westover, and Col. John Henry (father of Gov. Patrick Henry) as well as the following Virginia colony surnames: Trigg, Quarles, Johnston, Buchanan, Floyd, Preston, Bowen, Smith, Beverley, Bland, Munford, Randolph, and Johns *[[Knight-5503|Susan Gore]] Working now on my Maryland lines. * [[Grant_-_Lawrence-1 | Q Grant-Lawrence ]] looking for data on Spanish Louisiana, French Louisiana, folks that migrated from SC to FL & KY and US Slavery * [[Morgan-2979 | Brandi Morgan ]] My ancestors are almost exclusively from the NC and VA area for many generations. Surnames includes Morgan, Sanders, Warren, Higgins, McLean and Ritter. *[[Prickett-120 | Patricia Prickett Hickin]] Since c1790 all my ancestors lived in Virginia; the earliest to come to Virginia was in the 1730s-40s (though some may have arrived earlier). They lived in Botetourt and Bedford counties (maternal side); in Washington County and on the Monongahela and points south and west (paternal side). *[[Walker-21805|Synthia Calwell]] Many of my ancestors are a part of this that I'm working to add to the project. *[[Colvin-1125| Katie Colvin]] *[[Douglass-990|David Douglas]] Most of my ancestors have ties to colonial Virginia, North Carolina, Tennessee (pre and post statehood) and Texas (pre and post statehood). I am particularly interested in my Douglas/s, Clay and Johns(t)on connections that immigrated to Virginia as early as 1612, settling in Jamestowne, Charles City and Tidewater regions. Also interested in New Kent, VA connections - Johnsons, Allens, Massie, Walker and others. *[[Stewart-18690|Brandi Bates]] Many of my ancestors lived in Maryland and Virginia pre-1776. I'm particularly interested in the Hunnicutts and the Stimsons. *[[radecki-37|Alan Radecki]] Working to add/improve information on my ancestors and others who lived in Virginia, South Carolina and Georgia during the 1700s. Some of the name lines include DUKE, GHOLSON, PRINGLE, GARDNER and others. *[[Moore-34858|DJ McIntosh]] *[[Pehrman-1|Dane Pehrman]] Interested in the Sturdivant (Sturtevant) line into the Virginia colony in the mid 1600s and earlier. *[[Layman-1068|Joel Layman]] So far, have uncovered ties to Virginia, North/South Carolina, and of course, Georgia, where I am from. Dad's side of the family, once they migrated from Pennsylvania mostly settled in Tennessee. My main interest is Georgia, but these new ties have sparked curiosity as well. *[[Finley-1947|Jacqueli Finley]] I have been interested and researching early Colonial History for decades and am interested in helping wikitree in developing a well researched project in anyway that I can. *[[Pettus-295|Thomas Pettus]] My ancestors, Pettus, Winston, Overton, Dabney, Walker, Waters were all in Jamestown. I'm from Charlotte County Virginia, which was split apart from Mecklenburg, Lunenburg, and we adjoin Prince Edward, and Halifax. My family was there since the beginning. I'm interested in using DNA Y(111), mitochondrial and autosomal to 'prove' the speculative rungs in my ancestor ladder. * [[Barnett-3517|Linda Barnett]] * [[Boy-41|Emily (Boy) Holmberg]] Right now I am adding my family and making connections with existing profiles. Most of my ancestors either migrated from Pennsylvania or Maryland either directly to East Tennessee or to North Carolina then East Tennessee. I have a number of connections to the Battle of Kings Mountain, the Battle of Guilford Courthouse, and Fort Ninety-Six. I am also interested in the projects regarding slavery and those who freed slaves. According to records I have found, the estate of an ancestor was involved in a ground-breaking case in Tennessee because he freed his slaves and gave them land in his will. *[[Newhard-46|Jim Newhard]] Historian/archaeologist with a research interest in the familial networks of early South Carolina Lowcountry. Particular interests in Bellinger, Picnkey, Rutledge, and other Carolina 'first families' settling in what is now Beaufort, Colleton, Dorchester, Berkeley, and Charleston counties. *[[Biggs-2581|Chuck Biggs]] Interested in the 13 colonies, at least two ancestral surnames from there, Cardwell and Biggs. *[[Treadwell-833 | Tim Treadwell]] Working mainly in North Carolina, especially Iredell, Mecklenburg, Lincoln & Catawba Counties where I'm related to almost everyone and Rockingham County, where I'm only related to about half. *[[Neumann-636|Jenny Neumann]] interested in US Southern Colonies for ancestors * [[McCready-517|Josh McCready]] interested in McCready surname *[[Avis-179|Charles Avis]] Most of my ancestors came through the Southern Colonies in the 1700's. Those in Virginia were even earlier, so that's where I'm focused right now. * [[Todd-6590|Mark Todd]] Both my paternal lines (Todd and Wilson) and maternal lines (Hardin and Sims) track back to pre-1700s Virginia and the Carolinas. I have a doctorate in Early American Studies, emphasis in political/historical/social contexts for Early American literature, but researching profiles on WikiTree has made this personal and very real. Particularly interested in learning from other members of this project. * [[Schindler-917|Keith Schindler]] Interested in expanding the families of my ancestors who are the descendants of Elisha Oglesby and Mary Bryan, among the first settlers of Tennessee; finding the true origin of Captain Morgan Bryan (O'Brien) whose descendants traveled with Daniel Boone; understanding the migration to Texas and removal of related Cherokee descendants; learning more about the history of the Young aka Lamont ancestry, George Cathey Sr., and other Scottish/Irish ancestors. * [[Fann-206|Fann Fann-Porter]] Currently focusing on bridging the many personal tree gaps; in large part eastern North Carolina and South Carolina settlers. *[[Johnson-30637|DL Johnson]] Adding Sources, Southern_Pioneers and Southern_Colonies stickers to Profiles in my Paternal tree -Tracking my DNA trail. Finding Magna_Carta and Gateway Ancestors along the way. Focus is Colonial Virginia (& sorting Cousin Marriages), Maryland, New_Sweden, North_Carolina, Georgia, Middle Tennessee & NC Land Grants. Johnson, Johnston, Hampton, Bostick, Perkins, Henley, Thornton, Fitzhugh, Digges, Bankhead, Scott, Fowke... *[[Burkett-1190|Danita Zanrè]] Currently focusing on Virginia>North Carolina>Tennessee migrations. * [[Eddings-305|Noma Bruton]] Current focus is on the Thomas family in VA and NC and whether they originated in the Americas via Bermuda. * [[Gossage-102|Mary Gossage]] Elgin and Adams in Maryland Donohoe, McDowell, Elgin, Cartwright, in Virginia, mostly Loudon County. *Add [[Bishop-14172|Angela (Bishop) Lindsey]] *[[McCabe-2831|Angelyn (McCabe) Schmitz]] Albemarle County Virginia *[[Hargis-1027|Amy (Hargis) Blythe]] Deeper work/focus on Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina & Georgia to break through brick walls and to confirm research further.

What's the difference ?''' :Laura DeSpain, our Sourcerers Team Leader, explains the distinction between sources and resources as follows: # Sources: "This is where you find the information that you use to create a citation." # Resources: "Information that will help you locate a source. Including the history, changes in boundaries, wars, anything that may help you locate the source you are looking for." (These are the things that can affect the location of a source, whether it may exist anymore, etc.) :Tip from Laura: "When I cannot locate a source, the first thing I do is start checking boundary changes and whether or not battles or fires may have destroyed any places that stored records for the area." :WikiTree's [[Help:Sources_Style_Guide|Sources Style Guide]] help page defines Sources and References more broadly (omitting mention of "Resources"): * '''Sources''': "What we call sources could be called items in a source list, bibliography, or works cited." with the next paragraph saying "On WikiTree we put them beneath the references and a line that says "See also:". " * '''References''': "What we call references could be called citations, reference notes, inline references, footnotes, or endnotes." and the next paragraph says "A reference provides a source for a specific statement in the text." ==Table of Sources/Resources== :'''NOTE''': Green-shaded rows are US Southern Colonies Project pages (project-level pages categorized under [[:Category: US Southern Colonies Project]]; colony-level pages are categorized under the colony-level location categories). Grey-shaded rows are other projects that have sources/resources that may also be helpful to US Southern Colonies Project members. If the page listed is a category page, it will be followed by a [Navigate] link, which will show subcategories that may be of interest to project members. {| cellpadding="8" border="1" class="sortable" bgcolor="#f29754" !Project/Team!!Resources!!Sources!!Genealogy Resources!!History!!Location Category!!Profile Categories!!Other |- bgcolor="#f7fff7" |[[Project:US Southern Colonies|US Southern Colonies Project]]||[[Space: US Southern Colonies Sources|US Southern Colonies Sources]]The [[Space: US Southern Colonies Sourcerers Team |Sourcerers Team]] compiled a quick-reference by collecting the information in the Resource Sections of Team Pages: see [[Space: US Southern Colonies Sources]].

[[Category: US Southern Colonies Project]] [[Project: US Southern Colonies|US Southern Colonies Project]] | Stickers = US Southern Colonies Project Stickers = Please note that if you are adding a sticker to a profile other than your own, WikiTree guidelines call for no more than 5 stickers and note that 3 is better (see [[Help:Stickers]]). [[Template:Descendant |Descendant stickers]] are primarily intended for use on the profiles of active WikiTree members, but can be placed on any profile to show a link to ancestors. '''Note''': Information about the project box for the [[Project:US Southern Colonies|US Southern Colonies Project]] can be found on the [[Template:US Southern Colonist|US Southern Colonist template page]]. == Southern Colonist Stickers == {{US Southern Colonist Sticker|Virginia}} [[Template:US Southern Colonist Sticker]] for profiles of Southern colonists not managed by the project. Adding a ''colony'', to make it a colony-specific sticker, is required. {{US Southern Colonist Sticker|Virginia}} The sticker can be used to add [[Space:US Southern Colonies Project Maintenance Categories|project maintenance categories]] using the ''needs'' parameter, just as it is with the project box (which also requires a ''colony'' to be added). For example: {{US Southern Colonist|Virginia|needs=Sources}} << project box
{{US Southern Colonist Sticker|Virginia|needs=Sources}} << sticker :{{US Southern Colonist Sticker|Carolina}} The colony-specific stickers, such as the Virginia and Carolina sticker, can be added to profiles of Southern colonists whether or not they are managed by the project. To create a colony-specific sticker, add the colony to the project sticker: {{US Southern Colonist Sticker|Carolina}} (to 1712)
{{US Southern Colonist Sticker|Georgia}}
{{US Southern Colonist Sticker|Maryland}}
{{US Southern Colonist Sticker|North Carolina}} (1712-1776)
{{US Southern Colonist Sticker|South Carolina}} (1712-1776)
{{US Southern Colonist Sticker|Virginia}} (generally, 1625-1776)
{{US Southern Colonist Sticker|Jamestown}} (1606-1625) : ''See also'': [[Space:US_Southern_Colonies_Categories#Notes_on_Timeframes|Notes on Timeframes]].
: To see the stickers displayed, [[Template:US_Southern_Colonist_Sticker#Examples|click here]]. The sticker adds the corresponding colony's Colonists category; without the ''colony'' parameter, it adds the category [[:Category:US Southern Colonists|US Southern Colonists]] (as does the [[Template:US_Southern_Colonist|project box]]). It will also add [[:Category:US Southern Colonies Project Maintenance Categories|project maintenance categories]] based on the ''needs'' parameter. See the [[Template:US Southern Colonist Sticker|template page]] for details. === Descendant Sticker === {{Descendant|id=[[WikiTree-24|a Southern Colonist]]}} [[Template:Descendant]] for descendants of a Southern colonist (example uses the project account, [[WikiTree-24]]). Descendant stickers are primarily intended for use on the profiles of active WikiTree members, but can be placed on any profile to show a link to ancestors (considering WikiTree [[Help:Stickers|guidelines]] and provided other profile managers do not object). {{Descendant|id=[[WikiTree-ID|Name of the Southern Colonist]]}}

[[Category: US Southern Colonies Family Studies]] = Background = This page is was intended as a collection point for information about primary sources (or sources cited by secondary sources) to help sort out Virginia Finleys. Succinct summaries of differing views of Finley relationships should be here as well as posted to the relevant profile(s) to avoid confusion by readers. Currently (14 May 2021), it seems such a summary has only been posted on the profile for John [[Finley-1486]] (see excerpts [[#Problems and Summaries|below]]). I regret to say that I have been unable to find sufficient images of contemporary documentation, or information about such primary documentation that beyond a doubt indicates which fact belongs to which person. Without this, I do not believe that the disagreement among descendants, and the sources they cite, can be resolved. I believe some clarity could be achieve by "working backwards" from descendants outside the scope of the [[Project:US Southern Colonies|US Southern Colonies Project]]. While I was co-leader of the [[Project:US Southern Colonies|US Southern Colonies Project]], I stepped in to mediate the dispute over which John married Thankful [Doak] and which children were theirs. I retired as co-leader of that project in June 2021, but continued to attempt to find a solution. I thought that I could achieve this based on my work with Carmen Finley in researching O.G. Finley and his father George.[[Noland-165|I]] undertook that work several years ago, when I encountered the name O.G. Finley on the marriage license of my lineal ancestors, Elisha and Elizabeth (Johnson) Brien, who were married on 26 September 1818 in Wilson County, Tennessee. Standing surety for the bride was [[Finley-608|O.G. Finley]], who was identified as a son of one of the two George Finleys that were the subject of ''The George Finleys of Augusta County, Virginia,'' by Carmen J. Finley, Ph.D., (available online courtesy of [http://files.usgwarchives.net/ky/garrard/bios/f5400002.txt USGenWeb]), which notes that the two George Finleys were "each the son of a different John Finley, christened at Tinkling Spring Church on 20 Jan. 1743 and 4 Jan. 1748." Descendants disagree about this and other conclusions detailed by Dr. Finley. : DAR records that listed O.G. as a son of George included [http://services.dar.org/Public/DAR_Research/search_descendants/?action=list&MyPrimary_Seqn=768905&MyLineageCount=1 this record], for a descendant of son Obediah [Gaines/George] Finley who married Mary Lewis Johnson, which had George's baptism as 30 January 1743. Elizabeth (gr-gr-gr-grandmother of [[Noland-165]]) and Mary were sisters. In May 2021, the profiles for two Georges ([[Finley-336]] & [[Finley-638]]) and two Johns ([[Finley-212]] & [[Finley-1486]]) were protected and placed under the management of the [[Project:US Southern Colonies |US Southern Colonies Project]]. Descendants of one or both of the John Finleys objected & project protection has been removed from [[Finley-1486]] (although the profile is still managed by the project). ~ this passage updated 5 November 2021 by [[Noland-165]] = Stalled Research = Rather than deleting this page, I leave it here in case any of the information that I collected might be of use to others. In November 2021, I did some more work and may use the information I gathered at that time to update the following (or add a "November Research" section), but if any of what is on this page is of use to you, please do use it - with a grain (or more) of salt. ~ [[Noland-165|Noland-165]] 22:58, 5 November 2021 (UTC) == John Finley - Working Conclusion (in May 2021) == I have finished reviewing all the information. While I still need to add supporting information from Carmen Finley's research, which is the most recent and reliable, in light of continued relationship changes and profile revisions, the following is posted in advance of adding that information. ~ [[Noland-165|Noland-165]] 14:17, 22 May 2021 (UTC) # While there are multiple and oft-confused John Finleys, there is only one Thankful who married a John Finley: Thankful Doak. ## Thankful Doak's name is just that (not Elizabeth Thankful Doak). ## Mary Caldwell's name is just that (not Mary Thankful Caldwell). # The John Finley with the 1791 will is the John Finley who married Thankful Doak. : Note: WikiTree member and direct descendant Blake Finley disagrees. Please join the G2G discussion: https://www.wikitree.com/g2g/1029772/thankful-marriage-involved-which-finleys-b1710ca-evidence == John Finleys == As of 13 May 2021, WikiTree has three four profiles for John Finley that are very similar but represent more than one John Finley: : [[Finley-212]]: [[Finley-212|John Finley (1713-abt.1791)]] - not one of the Virginia John Finleys, despite the profile saying he died "about 1791 in Virginia" * wife [[Barclay-1350|Martha Warick (Barclay) Finley (abt.1716-1762)]], married in Pennsylvania; she died 25 May 1762 in Bucks County, Pennsylvania * no sons named George; all children except [[Finley-784|William]] shown as born in Pennsylvania (no birth location for William, born c1744) : [[Finley-1486]]: [[Finley-1486|John Finley (1713-abt.1791)]] (no son George attached) * wife [[Doak-197|Thankful (Doak) Finley (abt.1707-aft.1791)]], married c1740, Augusta County : [[Finley-625]]: [[Finley-625|John Finley (1724-abt.1791)]] * wife [[Caldwell-424|Mary Thankful Caldwell (1724-1787)]], married 21 Apr 1741 in Augusta * children attached include an Elizabeth (Finley) Cargill born 1735 and three profiles for William Finley (born 1743 in MD, born 1751 in Augusta, born 1770). Children named in the 1791 will of John Finley do not align well with the profiles attached as children of this John & wife Mary Thankful Caldwell (Elizabeth (Finley) Cargill, John Caldwell Finley, William Finley, George Finley, Samuel Finley, William Finley, David Caldwell Finley, Thomas Finley, Sally Finley and William Finley). : [[Finley-102]]: [[Finley-102|John Finley (abt.1706-1773)]] ''most of biography is a copy/paste from another, unidentified source'' * son of [[Finley-103|James Finley Sr (1687-1753)]] & [[Patterson-712|Elizabeth (Patterson) Finley (1690-abt.1754)]] * no spouse / two profiles attached for a son named William (one born 1743, Tinkling Spring & one born 1770) * son George [[Fenley-76]]: [[Fenley-76|George (Fenley) Finley (bef.1743-1831)]] - information from the unidentified source included this information supporting son George: "John sold his first patent, 183 acres, to Alexander Garden on 27 November 1749.(4) On 17 November 1767, John and Thankful deeded 179 acres of their property to their son, George, for five shillings. George, however, soon moved to Washington County about 170 miles to the southwest and sold his Middle River property to Robert and Margaret Clendenen for £16, less than five years after it was given to him.(5) The Clendenens, in turn, sold it back to John and Thankful three years later for five shillings.(6)" - unfortunately, without knowing the source of the copied text, the footnotes are not known. The date - 17 November 1767 - implies a 1746 birth for George. : Parents James Finley ([[Finley-103]]) & Elizabeth Patterson ([[Patterson-712]])? Comments from [[Finley-103]]: * I have attempted to clean this profile and have added source documents and address links for existing sources.

It is not likely that John Finley married both Thankful Doak and Martha Barclay/Berkeley. # the dates of birth of John have been interchanged. If John and Thankful Doak married in 1724 (per Stout's claim, which others questioned), then he was not logically the John born in 1713 or 1716; this is further complicated by the intermixing of their children's names in some genealogies. # the names of the children may have been ascribed to the wrong John, or even intermixed, in some genealogical accounts. # at least one John had a namesake son John, and their records, including wills, may have been mistakenly interchanged. # the current lack of, or lack of availability of documentation/proof (coupled with the difficulty of determining which record belongs to which Finley) leaves the identity of the two Johns ([[Finley-1468]] and [[Finley-212]]) and which married whom up to question. === DAR's Finley Families === :'''{{Red|NOTE}}''': Leads only. *{{DAR-grs|A040796|George Finley}} ** George (baptized 1-30-1743, Augusta Co.; died before 12-19-1817, Wilson County, Tennessee), married (1) Ann Newland, (2) Mary Gaines ** [https://services.dar.org/Public/DAR_Research/search_descendants/?action=list&MyPrimary_Seqn=803125&MyLineageCount=1 descendant record], wife Ann, son George b 1765 m Mary Chenoweth ** Children listed in main record: *** Isaac Finley, married (1) Sarah Henry *** Sarah Finley, married Samuel P.

Bransford, "The Finleys of Virginia" (Federal Writers' Project of the Work Projects Administration for the State of Florida : 16 December 1937), posted by the University of Florida: https://ufdc.ufl.edu/UF00055106/00001 (accessed 13 May 2021). ** "Clan Finley" began to migrate "southward from Inverness" during the 17th Century: Inverness -> lowlands -> western coast ("where the Finleys of Castle Toward in Argylshire are now") -> North of Ireland. "From the Irish branch the ancestors of the American Scotch-Irish Finleys, strong in the presbyterian religious faith, derive their descent. In fact, there is a tradition in the family that the American Finleys are lineally descended from the same ancestor as the martyred covenenter, Rev. John Finley, who was burnt at the stake for his adherence to his religious principles, in Edinburg, 15 Dec., 1682." [father of Rev. John Finley was James, second son of James (b 1631)] ** The Finleys in Virginia are apparently descended from James Finley (b 1631) & Barbara Henderson's oldes son Alexander (b 1669), whose four son, John, James (born 1687, m Elizabeth ____ in Ireland), Samuel & Andrew "came to America with their families and settled in East Nottingham Township, Chester Co., Penn., (now in Maryland), in the year 17x0." [looks like 17Z0 with a strikeover on the Z] Three of the sons of James (born 1687) & Elizabeth - John, Robert, and William, "moved from Pennsylvania to Virginia in 1736[-]1737, and became the progenitors of the Virginia Branch of the family." ** In 1740, John Finley was an elder of Tinkling Spring Presbyterian Church - if I'm reading Bransford correctly, the first church built in the Shenandoah (the settlement of Burden's 5000-acre grant, which was south of the "Manor of Beverley", on the waters of the James and Shenandoah Rivers). ** Page 6 - notes that brothers John, Robert & William "received a grant of 3143 acres of land out of the "Beverly Manor" tract, lying on South river in Augusta County. (See Virginia Deed Books for 1736, 1737, 1741 and 1742.)" Also on page 6: Robert died "prior to October 1765, as John Finley acknowledges receipt from his father, James Finley, of certain notes and bonds "as his full part of his uncle, Robert Finley's estate." (Chalkley's "Augusta County Records", Vol. III, P. 437"). Also on 20th of May, 1766, James Finley of Staunton Conveyed to Sampson and George Matthews certain land "described in a lease from James Brown to the said Robert Finley, 16th Jan. 1754, for the term of 57 years; all which land was conveyed to Robert Finley, late of AUgusta County, deceased, and descended to James Finley as his brother and heir-at-law." (Ibid. Vol III, P. 448)." Bransford shows that William married Mary Wallace, who died prior to 1781, and he died in 1789, naming a son William in his will, dated 28 July 1781. ** Page 7 - Bransford says John (son of James) was born 1702 in Ireland, married Thankful Doak in Pennsylvania in 1723, moved to Augusta County in 1737, & "was the progenitor of the Finleys of Lincoln Co., Ky. and Wilson County, Tenn." ** Page 8 - "The time and place of his [John, son of James] death is not known.

Note that the "fifth-in-a-row" [[Jones-8910|Peter Jones]] is not Peter Jones, builder of Folly Castle (in 1763) who died childless. The dates don't track - one biography says the builder of Folly Castle was born before 1728, so he couldn't possibly be the son of [4] [[Jones-8753|Peter Jones]], whose [[Jones-1543|father]] married in 1727. In addition, the Peter who built Folly Castle left his estate to his niece, Sarah Newsum, the daughter of [[Jones-11456|Lucy Jones]], who is the daughter of the fourth consecutive [[Jones-11433|Thomas Jones]]. Sarah married [[Gill-2983|Erasmus Gill]] and they lived in Folly Castle (see [[Gill-2983#Wife_Sarah_Newsum_.26_Folly_Castle|Erasmus Gill's profile]] for more information). === Theories === : [1] [[Jones-6845|Peter Jones]]'s wife [[Unknown-560616|Margaret]] is said to be a step-daughter of [[Wood-1167|Abraham Wood]]. Why? * because Abraham married Margaret's mother? (her mother is not known; Abraham's wife or wives are not known) * because Abraham was guardian of Margaret? (no evidence to support this) * because Abraham was guardian of Peter? (he transported Peter to Virginia in 1638, and Peter is said to have been born in 1634, but otherwise no evidence to support this) * because Abraham's 1682 will names "grandchildren in law" who are the children of Peter Jones and his wife Margaret? (interpreting "in law" to mean "step", and assigning the step relationship to Margaret) * because Abraham was named guardian for Peter's under-age children? : Most researchers say that Margaret was Abraham's step-daughter, pointing to the will's "grandchildren in law", and various women have been proposed as her mother/wife of Abraham. None have survived close scrutiny. [[Noland-165|I]] think that perhaps the more likely supposition is that Abraham was either Peter's guardian or the guardian of Peter's children who were not yet of age, and Margaret was simply Peter's wife. : The term "in law" as used in Virginia in 1682 is not the same as today's: * "'''In-law''': This term was used in a much broader sense than it is today, referring to any relationship created by a legal event, like a marriage. For example, a stepfather was typically called a father-in-law. Likewise, a son-in-law could have meant a stepson, the husband of a daughter, or even the husband of a stepdaughter or daughter-in-law. Even terms like 'brother' and 'sister' have to be interpreted in a broad sense. 'Brother' could have been used for stepbrothers, half-brothers, the brother of a sister or sister-in-law, even for a close friend or member of the same religious group." ~ [https://genfiles.com/articles/colonial-legal-terminology/ Colonial Legal Terminology]Robert W. Baird. [https://genfiles.com/articles/colonial-legal-terminology/ Colonial Legal Terminology] (accessed 1 May 2020). : As Bob Baird says: * "Terminology often, if not usually, had meanings very different from the modern sense of the same word. 'Orphan', for example, meant a minor whose father was dead, and implied nothing about the mother. 'Son-in-law' included the modern relationship we would call stepson and 'cousin' included relationships like nephew or niece."Robert W. Baird.

Governor Berkeley was forced to leave Virginia to answer charges raised by the followers of Nathaniel Bacon and died soon after his arrival in England. Although historians have generally treated him unsympathetically, it was Berkeley's determination that sent Englishmen beyond the Appalachian Mountains, preparing the way for the opening of the frontier. Like Berkeley, John Lederer was driven from Virginia in disgrace, returning to Europe and to obscurity. James Needham had met death in the wilderness, mourned only by a few friends. Edward Bland died shortly after completing his journey, his name and exploits soon forgotten except among his own family. Thomas Batts, Robert Fallam, and Gabriel Arthur were quickly assimilated back into the Virginia population, disappearing from view [note: all of these men except Lederer traveled under Wood’s direction]. Of the great pioneers of the first frontier, only Abraham Wood achieved any prominence and recognition for his efforts. Wood alone lived long enough to realize the importance of what he and the others had done in the years from 1650-1675. They had opened a continent, taken its dimensions, invited others to follow, and set the English nation on the road of western expansion." === Locations === : See their profiles for specific information, but in general, this Jones family spread from Charles City (today's City Point)Today's City Point, "first known as Bermuda Cittie [and] located in Charles City Shire when it was formed in 1634." ~ Wikipedia: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/City_Point,_Virginia City Point, Virginia] (accessed 6 May 2020) to Dinwiddie County, mostly within Bristol Parish: : '''Bristol Parish''', created in 1643, served ''Charles City County'' (to 1702), ''Henrico County'' (to 1735), ''Prince George County'' (to after 1785), and ''Dinwiddie County'' (also to after 1785): :: "The statute creating Bristol Parish on both sides of Appomattox river, from the mouth up to the falls, in (then) Charles City & Henrico Counties,... did not give the name of the "parent" parish.

Moore": : "'''Joel Halbert''', the oldest son of William Halbert and Mary Wood, was born about 1712, Essex, Virginia, and died about 1762, Caroline, Virginia. Joel's father was a Welsh immigrant that came to Essex County Virginia prior to 1709. Joel married first Mary Biswell, about 1733, Essex, Virginia. She was born about 1713, Essex, Virginia and died about 1742, Essex, Virginia. Her parents were Jeremiah Biswell, born about 1680, England, and died Mar 1730, Essex, Virginia. and Anne Cooke, born about 1680 in Essex, Virginia and died 1724 in Essex, Virginia. Anne was the daughter of John Cooke and Susannah Pells. Joel and Mary Biswell had two daughters: Sarah and Mary. He married second Elizabeth Frances Jones, ca. 1740, Essex, Virginia. He and his wife Elizabeth Jones settled in Caroline County, Virginia. The children of Joel and Elizabeth were: John, Hanniniah, William, Martha, Frances Jones, and Joel Jr. The couple were evidently close neighbors and goods friends of William Hill, Sr. and his wife, Susannah Smithers, judging from the intermarriages between the two families. Two sons of William Hill, Sr., married two daughters of Joel Halbert and the only daughter of William Hill, Sr., married William Halbert, a son of Joel Halbert. William Hill, Jr., married Elizabeth Halbert; Robert Hill married Martha Halbert; and Elizabeth Hill married William Halbert. This last-named marriage was in 1765 and, shortly afterwards, William Hill, Sr., and his wife, Susannah Smithers, with the major part of their children, moved to Surry County, North Carolina, where they spent the remainder of their lives. Except the two daughters who married Hills, Joel Halbert and the other members of his family continued to live in Virginia till after the Revolution when his son William Halbert and his wife, Elizabeth Hill, moved to South Carolina and settled on the Saluda river." : "'''William Halbert Sr.''' The third child of Joel Halbert Sr. and Frances Jones, born Oct 14, 1744, in Essex Co., Va., and died Dec 28, 1809, in Anderson Co., SC. He married Elizabeth Hill about 1766, probably in Caroline Co., Va. She was born Sep 18, 1847, Caroline Co., Va., and died Nov 6, 1836 in Anderson Co., SC. Her parents were William Hill Sr. and Susannah Smithers. William is said to have had a red beard, blue eyes, and was of stout build. He served in the Revolutionary War as a 2nd Lt. In the Henry Co., Va. Militia from 1779-80. His name appears on a placard of officers now hanging in the Henry Co., Court House. William owned over 150 acres in Surry Co., NC. in 1777, and several other tracts nearby on Russell’s Creek, a tributary of the Mayo River, adjacent to his son-in-law John Gresham. William’s land in Va. was that part of Henry Co., Va., that was cut off to form the part of Patrick Co., Va. It was just over the border line of Surry Co., NC. William and his family moved to SC. in 1786 and settled on the Saluda River in Pendleton Dist., near Belton, which is now a part of Anderson Co., SC. He served as a Justice of the Peace for many years and was also appointed one of the commissioners to locate a site for the Court House of the then recently created Pendleton District. The first quarterly court held May 10, 1790, of which the Magistrates William Halbert, John Wilson, and Robert Anderson. William received his land in SC. by a land grant that was issued to him by Thomas Jefferson for his service in the Revolutionary War. William prospered in SC. and accumulated a considerable estate and possessed several slaves which was an indication of wealth in those days.

[[Category: Abigail, sailed 1620-1622]][[Category: Jamestown Colony]] This page was begun with information [[Noland-165|I]] had been adding to the profile for [[Arundell-52|John Arundell]] but was better suited to a space page. It duplicates some information on [[Space: Abigail, sailed 1620-1622]], which has additional information that may be of interest. While [[Arundell-40|Peter Arundell]] (John's father) was a Virginia Company share-holder and adventurer, it may be that [[Bonall-1|Anthonie Bonall]] was in charge of day-to-day wine and silk operations at Elizabeth City's Bucke Row settlement. Their profiles both have details about these endeavors that might interest you. == The Virginia Company == Much has been written about the Virginia Company of London, which was expected to make a profit for its investors by taking advantage of the opportunities to be harvested from colonizing Virginia.For example, see Wikipedia's article on the [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London_Company London Company] and its list of sources and links. Tobacco, wine, and silk were three commodities that the company hoped would turn a profit, which it realized to some degree with tobacco, a major export. A few years before Virginia became a crown colony (in 1625), the Virginia Company realized it needed to import a delicate cargo: English women from good families, potential wives for the early settlers. These women - by some accounts, 144 who arrived between 1619 and 1622 - are sometimes called "Tobaccao Brides" because the men they married paid in tobacco to cover the Virginia Company's costs.Wikipedia: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tobacco_brides Tobacco brides] (accessed 14 April 2021). This page focuses on Virginia's early wine and silk ventures, but also includes some initial research on the brides imported by the Virginia Company. == Wine and Silk == Both French and Italian immigrants came to Virginia to cultivate vineyards and start wineries. Some, like [[Arundell-40|Peter Arundel]], also established "silk houses", using leaves from Virginia's native mulberry trees to feed the silkworm caterpillars.The red mulberry is native to Virginia. The non-native white mulberry, which is more desirable for silk production, was not imported from China until the 1700s.

This was one of the attempts to build up a profitable industry by the Virginia Company."Rogers Dey Whichard, ''History of Lower Tidewater Virginia'' (1959), [https://archive.org/details/historyoflowerti01whic archive.org], [https://archive.org/stream/historyoflowerti01whic/historyoflowerti01whic_djvu.txt full text copy] (accessed 12 April 2021). Although the date of Peter's arrival is not recorded in the 1624/5 muster, which included what year and on which ship colonists arrived (instead that muster recorded his 1624 death), other sources show he was aboard the ''Abigail'' when it sailed from England in February 1620/21.From comment (14 April 2021), citing [https://archive.org/details/recordsofvirgini03virg/page/238/mode/2up?q=abigall Kingsbury] : The ''Abigail'' arrived in Jamestown with several Arundells aboard, including John and Margaret, as well as Anthonie Bonall and several other people who in 1624/5 were listed under the muster of Anthonie Bonall, Sgt William Barry, and John Haney, living "beyond Hampton River Beinge the Companyes land", where the Hamptons also were listed: William Hampton (head, 34) with Joane Hampton & John Arndell.Jamestown Muster, [http://www.virtualjamestown.org/Muster/search.muster.cgi?start_page=0&search_type=basic&database=muster_1624&last=&first=&muster=&age-op=&age1=&age2=&loc=beyond+Hampton+River+Beinge+the+Companyes+land%2C+Elzabeth+Cittie&month=&year=&date= search for beyond Hampton River Beinge the Companyes land] (Hamptons on page 3 of results). While the 1624/5 Jamestown muster has various arrival dates for them (1620-1622), they were most likely passengers aboard the same voyage of the ''Abigail''. Shawn Potter's research includes the following quote from Kingsbury, vol iii, p. 239, 240:Research of Shawn Potter, posted 1 August 2000 in genealogy.com, "[https://www.genealogy.com/forum/surnames/topics/arundell/22/ Peter Arundell, d. 1625, VA--who was he?]" (accessed 12 April 2021). :: "Virginia Company.

Whitaker, and "Mr Anthony Bannall, who went to gather mulberry leaves upon the said Capt's ground. Who is at fault I know not, for I was not there. But I will tell you once more that unless strict orders be sent from England for preservation of mulberry trees, the silk work will wholly be lost for a great while in Virginia. Our worms are well hatched and very hopefull. If I live, I will bring home some silk.... I say if I live for I have naught at this time to maintain me and my people till harvest but a little more than half a bushel of English meal, all my provision being spent by workmen to build the silk house. If I die, my eldest son, John Arundle, will follow the silk work, for I find him very fit for it. Therefore, I entreat you, if I die before I see you, to take notice of him and to deal charitably with my young children."Potter, citing Kingsbury, vol iv, p. 230. : In February 1623/4, the Arrundells were living at "Buck Rowe",John Camden Hotten, ''The Original Lists of Persons of Quality; Emigrants; Religious Exiles...'', [https://archive.org/details/originallistsofp00hottuoft/page/196/mode/1up?view=theater&q=arundell pages 183-184] a settlement in Elizabeth City's Lower Parish.

Additional information is primarily from the 1624/5 Jamestown musterJamestown Muster: [http://www.virtualjamestown.org/Muster/search.muster.cgi?start_page=0&search_type=basic&database=muster_1624&last=&first=&muster=&age-op=&age1=&age2=&ship=Abbigall&ship=Abigaile&ship=Abigall&month=&year=&date= Abigail search results], [http://www.virtualjamestown.org/Muster/search.muster.cgi?start_page=0&search_type=basic&database=muster_1624&last=arrun%25&first=&muster=&age-op=&age1=&age2=&month=&year=&date= Arrundell search results] and the compiled passenger list for the ''Abigail''.[[:Space: Abigail, sailed 1620-1622]]According to Virginia Company records, it sent 230 settlers to Virginia aboard the ''Abigail'', which left London in February 1620/21. By the time of the 1624/5 Muster, only about 60 people are recorded as having arrived aboard the ''Abigail'' - 10 (probably more) were living at the Buckroe settlement the previous year. (The "probably more" is because those who died before the 1624/5 muster did not have their arrival recorded.) Only a quarter or so surviving (60 out of 230) seems remarkable - at first glance, because the death rate is so high. However, it is remarkable because the survival rate is so high. According to "[https://openendedsocialstudies.org/2018/09/09/jamestown-english-settlers-in-the-land-of-the-powhatan/ Jamestown: English Settlers in the Land of the Powhatan]" (accessed 17 April 2021):
:"Prosperity did not come quickly, however, and the death rate from disease and Indian attacks remained extraordinarily high. Between 1607 and 1624 approximately 14,000 people migrated to the colony, yet by 1624, there were only 1,132 living there." That means only about one-twelth of those who came to Virginia before 1625 survived. Looking at deaths between 1620 and the 1624/5 muster would give a clearer idea of the death rate those aboard the ''Abigail'' might have faced, but a quarter surviving seems pretty good by comparison to the overall chance of survival 1607-1624. :{| border="1" class="sortable" cellpadding="3" !Name!!Arrival!!1624/5 Muster!!LocationLegend for Table * BHR: beyond Hampton River Beinge the Companyes land, Elizabeth Cittie * BR: Bucke Row (the note "not BR" means the person was not listed there in the 1623/4 muster) * PH: Peirseys Hundred, Charles Cittie !!Notes |- |[[Flint-137|Flint, Thomas]] ||1618, ''Diana''||[[Flint-137|Thomas Flynt]], head||BHR|| |- |Hampton, John |||||||| |- |Peirsby, Richard |||||||| |- |Rookins, William ||1619, ''Bona Nova''||Sgt.

These women are sometimes called "Tobaccao Brides" because the men they married were to reimburse the Virginia Company "for the charges disbursed in setting them forth, which coming to £12 and upwards, they require 150lbs of the best leaf tobacco for each of them. This increase of thirty pounds weight since those sent in the Marmaduke they have resolved to make, finding the great shrinkage and other losses upon the tobacco from Virginia will not bear less."Links to explore for more information about Jamestown women: * https://www.ranker.com/list/jamestown-brides-facts/cheryl-adams-richkoff * https://encyclopediavirginia.org/entries/women-in-colonial-virginia/ * https://www.thirteen.org/blog-post/real-wives-jamestown-colony/ * https://www.theatlantic.com/business/archive/2016/08/the-mail-order-brides-of-jamestown-virginia/498083/ * https://www.dailypress.com/history/dp-fea-first-jamestown-women-20160319-story.html * https://www.nps.gov/jame/learn/historyculture/the-indispensible-role-of-women-at-jamestown.htm * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tobacco_brides * https://www.historytoday.com/real-wives-jamestown * https://www.jstor.org/stable/2937995?seq=1 * https://blog.oieahc.wm.edu/by-the-meanes-of-women-jamestown-on-the-vanguard-of-english-womens-settlement/ ** "...Virginia Ferrar, the daughter of former Virginia Company deputy John Ferrar.
