I am a descendant of a William Braswell (ca1680-ca1720; wife Mary ___ who remarried Moses Ginn after his death). He is believed to be the grandson of Rev. Robert Braswell. The problem is that I have seen him represented as a son of both Richard and Robert (sons of the Rev.) in different sources. I have also found sources not listing him as a son of either. The facts I have seen would seem to support him being a son of Richard and wife Sarah Sampson, but I would like to know what others think. His wife had remarried before Richard's death (so it's assumed William died before his father) and therefore he is not listed in the will among Richard's other children. I would appreciate input from other descendants/researchers who may have more on this than I have seen. Thanks, Tim Wilson From ???@???

I assume that is who you all are writing of? I have a negative photostat that I got at Raleigh. On the back it is stamped "Photostatic copy by Dept. of Archives & History Raleigh, North Carolina Jan 7 1972 from the records in its archives". Someone typed on it "From: Cumberland Co. wills, 1757-1869. William Carver, 1766." I will type it up & put it on the web. If anyone has it already on the web, please let me know immediately. My photostat is from the loose will (i.e. from the packet) I suppose. It is manuscript. It is not from the manuscript (original) will book. It is signed "William Carver==", so William could write his name. That is, there is no X. Maybe later something will come to light as why someone thought his wife's maiden name was Wilson. I suppose that it was deduced (by elimination or associations) rather than induced from a single document, for if it were inductive reasoned, we'd all have heard of the document. As to Wilson in gedcom. What do you all do when you have a questionable surname like "(Wilson?)"? I think it should have been entered as Wilson? in parentheses, but that would make it alphabetized with names beginning with parentheses. Some programs might have ignored the parentheses. I seem to recall parentheses being ignored from the early 1990s when I was inputting & printing. Maybe we should not input what we do not know or what we question. In 1990 or 1991 I input in BK "Thomas Sr. or John Woodward" m. "Elizabeth or Mary Simpson" b."abt 1710". On the pedigree on the screen he appears as "Thomas Sr. or Woodward". :-( My point is we know how hard it is to put a square peg in a round hole -- our data does not always fit well in the fields but leaving it only in notes means it does not print on most output. So, I can understand Wilson getting input into someone's genealogy program. I see that I input the man under consideration as "William Carver (alias Braswell)". He appears on the screen in BK on the pedigree as "William Carver Braswell)". Obviously not desirable. He can be found in BK as William Braswell since BK looks at the first 5 letters of 1st & last name and for the same reason cannot be found as William Carver. :( BTW, I did not give Mary a surname in my BK input. I had her on my pedigree of Mar 6 1978 as "Mary (Wilson?)". I have not retyped my pedigree since then. I just make a few notes on it as needed.

You can find it from THE Braswell Pages that our owner/webmaster Keith does or go direct to http://emcee.com/~green. I have translated fs to ss. I assume that is what is desired? I have kept the carriage returns of the original. I hope you all do not have to scroll right to see the end of each line. In using Internet Explorer one can reduce the font size if it does not fit on your screen. I bet you can do the same with Netscape. I am not sure how it acts in frames (as Keith has it). The part I have on the web is the religious part. You all know -- he part where it talks of God. Is that the testament? Is that why a will is called a Last Will & Testament? Why do modern wills leave this out? The S.Bapt. Church has a program to help people write their will. The help they give excludes the religious part. In other words the Baptist help one write a fine will for atheists. Why? As an atheist, I expect more of Christians. Is the old wording now illegal? Maybe that is why I sign my letters CSA rather than USA to distance myself from the crumbling decay. Now I have said enough to get flamed. -- James W. Green III of Winnsboro SC CSA From ???@???

Bill Hunt is my cousin in St. Louis and I recognize those other references, but unfortunately none of those sources we've provided identifies Wilson as the surname of Mary, wife of William. Unfortunately it isn't clear whether this William who married Mary (perhaps a Wilson) was the son of Robert or Richard. Richard's wife is said to be a Sampson (another item I can't verify) and if true, I would favor Richard as the father of William who married Mary because the surname Sampson was used as a given name by descendants. I think I had other reasons for favoring Richard, but I can't recall what they were right now. Some researchers also believe that Mary's surname was Wood, but again there was no proof. In some cases, perhaps theories of some researchers are being reported as fact? -Nona ---------- > From: FoyBrasw@aol.com > To: Braswell-L@genealogy.org > Cc: rof@backporch.com > Subject: Mary Wilson > Date: Thursday, January 16, 1997 2:54 AM > > My source for Mary Wilson, is some GEDCOM files I downloaded in Nov. 95 when > I was trying to unscramble the William Braswells. > > One cites William Braswell/Mary Wilson having son William Jr. who married > Margaret Unknown and bore Jacob (1738-1823 NC).

We were actually discussing an earlier William Braswell than the Carver/Braswell one but you raise a good point. Perhaps someone found William Carver/Braswell's spouse was Mary Wilson and confused that Mary Wilson as the wife of the William Braswell who was the grandson of Rev. Robert Braswell. There were entirely too many men named William Braswell. I descend from: William Braswell III who married Martha William Braswell II who married Margaret William Braswell I who married Mary It's difficult to sort them out. -Nona ---------- > From: James W.

Colonial Bertie County North Carolina (Windsor, NC : [no publisher], c1963) Vol. 1 (Deed Book A, 1720-1726) p. 20: A, 341: William WILSON & wife Rebecca to Thomas CLERK Nov. 10, 1724. 7 lbs. for 265 A. on SS Meherrin River. Land formerly granted to Rebecca BRASSWELL for 530 A. Mar. 1, 1719. Rebecca "now ye [i.e. the] wife of William WILSON". Wit.: Samuel WILLIAMS, John HART. Nov. Court 1724. John Sutton D. C/C. [Well, well, well, who have we for witnesses here? A WILLIAMS and a HART. Could it be we've seen these names in close association with BRASWELLs before--like Edgecombe/Nash Counties and Smith/DeKalb Counties in Tennessee!] Vol. 2 (Deed Books B & C 1725-1730, 1739) p. 39 B, 125: William WILSON & wife Rebekah to Samuel ELDRIDGE (ELDREDGE) May 9, 1726. 20 pds. for 265 A. "... being half tract granted said Rebekah whose name was then BRACEWELL and now ye [i.e. the] said William WILSON's wife ..." 530 A. patent dated Mar. 1, 1719. Wit.: William DRAKE, William RICKS. May Court 1726.*. This proves nothing, of course, in regards to Mary (?) BRASWELL GINN. But it does establish that there was already a strong connection between the two families. Perhaps research into William WILSON's family and connections will prove/disprove the Mary (WILSON) theory. Did William WILSON have a sister named Mary? Who did she marry? Does anyone have access to the original patent record for Rebecca BRACEWELL above? Who were her descendants? Did they go to the Edgecombe Co./Nash Co. area? Or where did they wind up. [Actually did any BRASWELL "go" to that area or were they just already living there when the new county was formed? What was Rebecca's ancestry? I suspect more info. can be found in Chowan Precinct; but I don't have access to these records. Lucy Barron Lexington, MA From ???@???

Do you have Francis Albritton or Albrighton Jones in your family tree? His middle name always appears in records but the middle name is spelled various ways. Now to respond to your question. In my notes I show that Richard Braswell received 400 acres of land from his father on 16 Jan. 1660 and I have the following information about the land holdings of his father, Robert Braswell: Dr. R. B. Braswell states in his book (Following the Braswells in America 1600-1983) that Robert owned a plantation on Blackwater River as early as 10 Nov. 1635 but he doesn't cite his source (it was probably Boddie though). Viola Vick Braswell says in her book (The Lineage of Jacob Thomas Braswell) that the earliest Virginia record she found for Robert was 29 Apr. 1650. I haven't been able to find that earlier record mentioned by Dr. Braswell and by John Bennett Boddie either. Viola Braswell did cite her sources and the record in 1650 appears in Deed Book 1 page 426 Isle of Wight Co. In Will and Adm Bk A pp. 32-33 Capt. John Upton mentioned 300 acres of land he had sold to Mr. Robert Bracewell. (The use of "Mr." signified that Robert Bracewell was a man of status.) Robert Braswell's pastorate was Lawne's Creek Parish which was located in the area of the present boundary line between Surry and Isle of Wight Co. He resided on Blackwater River which was a few miles south of the James River and the colonial town Jamestown (a few miles northwest of the present-day town of Smithfield, Virginia). At his death, Robert Braswell owned 700 acres which included his home and plantation and 600 acres on Nansemond River. Also in my notes is a mention of Arthur Jones, Jno. Pitt and Thos. Pitt who were witnesses to one of Richard's land transactions in Nansemond Co. Richard was in Chowan Pct., NC by 1725. Does any of this help? -Nona ---------- > From: JJones116@aol.com > To: braswell-l@genealogy.org > Subject: Richard Braswell IoW land > Date: Saturday, January 18, 1997 4:55 AM > > Does anyone know the location of Richard Braswell's land holdings in early > Isle of Wight County, VA?

Thanks so much for administering this list and allowing us to communicate with each other. I have a color brochure from St. Luke's Church in Smithfield, Virginia which is the same building used by our ancestor Rev. Robert Bracewell. I can't find any copyright symbols anywhere so I think we could safely use it on the Web. Our scanner is attached to my husband's Power Mac so I'll have to ask him to scan it and send it to you. I'm wondering if we should scan each photo separately or just do two scans, the front and back? The text is also interesting and the files are likely to be really large. For those who want to vacation in Virginia and visit the ancestral lands, you can find the church near Smithfield, Virginia on Route 10. Their mailing address is RR 4, Box 220, Smithfield, VA 23430, phone 804-357-3367. Two of my cousins picked up a brochure for me while visiting there. Perhaps if you all sent SASEs to them, they would send each of you a brochure of your own? In one of my newsletters I published a report from Bill Hunt (my cousin) who visited the church a few years ago. -Nona From ???@???

They are light, can include all kinds of images, cost less to produce, and do not kill trees to distribute. We will also make available a printed book. The book will have the same text but probably less pictures. We do have a web site, our business is computers, we would like to be listed on your Braswell Links page under Braswell Business sites. My Grandfather wrote the original book. Truth be known he could barely find the records of his birth. Granmother did most of the research as he was a man of little patience and not much organization. He drove the car and sounded important. She has researched the Braswell, French, Williamson, Schaffer, and Lilly family names to mention a few.

There are two William Braswells listed there and the films I saw at the TN State Archive in Nashville were so worn out that I couldn't read them. Their census ID numbers from the index book are 203 and 204. One of them is most likely my great-grandfather. As I am now living in Texas, my local library only has the 1850 NC Census and it's incomplete. But we have plenty of Texas info if anyone would like to trade labor.

Lucinda L. was his second wife. The other William (wife Mary) was his son. Both Williams were in the Caldwell Co. census in 1850/60/70. In 1850/60, they were in Collettsville TWP and Lenoir in 1870.

I sent you a note that I had found out who the two Williams were. William Barjonah ("Jonas") Braswell had 3 sons - William Blackstock, Rion (Ryan) and Wiley (various spellings). "Jonas" also had 2 daughters: Nancy married James Barber. I have their children, etc. The other daughter was only known as "Big Suzie." Nothing is known about her. My ggf was William Jackson Braswell born 22 March 1835 and married to Louisa Allison of Johnson Co, TN. William Blackstock had a son named William born ca 1833 but he married Mary Clark of Caldwell Co, NC. Wiley had a William named William Hulden born 1823 who married Sophronia E. Clark. And believe it or not, James Barber/Nancy Braswell had a William. Their children even had Williams but we won't go into that. Rion (Ryan) had a William born ca 1834 and my records don't have the name of his wife. I think that William is my ggf William Jackson. You know how census birthdays are - plus or minus a year. The date and location fits. I am joining the Caldwell Co. Genealogical Society and sending in a copy of my tree. The curse of Williams continues. My grandfather had a son William Ira who had a Jr. He had a brother named William Wiley who had a Jr. He had a brother named Joseph who had a son named William. Enough already!

Thanks Nita Brusha --------------------- Forwarded message: Subj: Brazell/Braswell Date: 97-01-17 17:02:03 EST From: REllis1900 To: OneNita296 Dear Nita (I assume you go by Nita): I saw your query on the AOL genealogy bulletin board. Thought I let you know about the Braswell board. It's a very active group of researchers on Braswell/Bracewell/Brazil/Brazzel and all other variations of spelling. I don't know how long you've been wasting your time and energy with genealogy, so forgive me if I tell you things you already know. It's generally considered that most of the above names are variations of Bracewell/Braswell and that most (or at least a whole bunch of us) descend from the Rev. Robert Bracewell/Braswell who came to VA in the 1600's. I think it would probably be worth your while to get in touch with Keith Braswell at: Braswell-L@genealogy.org And ask him to add you to the roster. If you later decide there's no connection, you can "secede". I know I've found a bunch of information and some kinfolks through the group. Good luck. Rich Ellis Cedar Park, TX From ???@???

I need to look at it, but as I recall, I summarized what I knew about the early Bracewells in Isle of Wight County and it would be useful to people new to family research. It's archived on a disk somewhere so I need to find it and then I could email it to you. It consisted of 15 printed pages (includes a name index).

I know something about this William right off the bat. Chloe was Clarrissa, daughter of Jordan (his wife was Erin [ ? ] SELLERS) SELLARS/SELLERS who died in Warren Co., TN and names her in will. William married second Mary Vires/Viars, etc. (see DeKalb Co., TN marriage records). I don't remember if she was a widow, but probably was as William was married to Chloe for some time before she died. I have seen other descendants of these two mistake Chloe for the VIARS woman. Some old relative must have gotten it confused way back. The SELLARS family cohabits with the BRASWELL family at least as far back as Bertie Co., NC when in 1724 Mathew SELLERS was witness along with James BRYANT (James BRYANT, Sr. had a dau. who married a BRASWELL), and William WILSON (who married Rebecca BRASWELL) to a Bertie Co., NC deed between William RICKS & wife Esther to Isaac RICKS (BRASWELL connection unknown). Do you know Patsy WALLS of Smithville, Tennessee? She also descends from these two. Amy Lou had a sister Priscilla J. who married a PATTERSON. This is Patsy's line. This line intermarries later with my BRASWELL line who lived right across the then border of DeKalb Co. in neighboring Smith Co. Today it is in DeKalb Co. Your William was son of Sampson & Priscilla (WILLIAMS) BRASWELL. There are lots of people on this list who can help you with them. Including Nona WILLIAMS and Malcolm BASHAM (he has a webpage). Priscilla was daughter of William WILLIAMS and Lucreasy (BRASWELL) WILLIAMS. So you are doubly descended from BRASWELLS. Do you use PAF? I can make you a GEDCOM file on disk of what I have on these people and snail-mail it to you. Or if you prefer, I could printout a descendants chart for you using my father's shareware DESCEND program. I don't do a lot of fresh research these days as I have a 2 year old and am expecting another in June. But I have done genealogy for about 20 years now (not all on BRASWELL of course) and have some on your line even though they aren't direct ancestors of mine. My name is Lucy Barron. (Alias Mrs. Lawrence Marcus, but I kept my maiden name when I married.) I am from Austin, TX actually. My mother was a BRASWELL and her people migrated to Collin Co., TX from Smith Co., TN about 1908. My address is: 304 Marrett Rd.

At least that I can credit to my husband, Bob, who is the resident computer guru. It was interesting to me to see the Mary and the Elizabeth names. The second daughter in my father's family was my Aunt Mary Elizabeth Braswell. Most, if not all, of my father's immediate family are bured in Old Kuttawa, Ky. Some may be buried at New Concord in Calloway Co, but i am not certain. My father's cousin who did years of research, was, if I recall correctly, an insurance agent somewhere in Missouri. I feel sure he has children, and initially I wondered if you might be part of that branch of the tree. At any rate, I will call my sis this weekend and see if she can start digging for the Braswell book. She just came out of retirement (for the third time) and may be more frazzled than usual. I will get back to you as soon as I can. You may also find it interesting that there is a Braswell street in either Glascow ir Edinbouro Scotland. Please forgive the atrocious spelling. Take care.

Corsicana is about halfway between and a little over to the east between Waco and Dallas. Ennis used to have a very large Czech population (indeed, when the Constitution of the Republic of Texas was written, it was written in four languages to accomodate the large differing populations--English, German, Czech, and Spanish). My grandfather used to call these people "Bohemians". I am very familiar with parts of this area of Texas as my father's kin hailed from Corsicana and other neighboring towns in Navarro Co. and surrounding counties. While my mother's people lived in Collin Co. near McKinney and surrounding areas. I spent many a boring hour in the car as a child while we made the long trips to see grandparents, etc. From Austin it was about 2 1/2 hours to Corsicana (via Waco) and about 4 1/2 to 5 (before they raised the speed limit to 65 and built some better roads) to my maternal grandmother's house. Paris, TX is a long way off. Very close to the Oklahoma border and Northeast of the area above. But I still had yet other distant relatives there whom I remember long dead relatives talking about visiting at some point. I'd say about 2 hours drive from Dallas.

My cousin Ruby looked at original records and solved the problem. Samuel Braswell was born ca. 1738 and died ca. 1794-95 in Nash Co., NC. His son Sampson was born ca. 1782 and was a minor when he father died, Archibald Griffin was appointed guardian. Sampson's siblings were: Micajah, Elizabeth, Margaret, Wilson, Quinny or Queeny and Sally or Sarah who married Samuel Williams, son of William Williams. Archibald Griffin was also appointed guardian for Sarah/Sally and Queenie. There's a gap between the ages of the older siblings and the younger ones, so we think Samuel was probably married twice with the ____ Moore as his first wife and Sarah (Hunt?) as his second wife and the mother of Sampson but data on his wife/wives is still unproved. I hope this helps. Because of those earlier incorrect dates, it took us longer than otherwise to unravel this problem and this illustrates the importance of not accepting word-of-mouth information unless it can be supported by source citations and even then it's a good idea to verify the sources. -Nona ---------- > From: Lucy Barron > To: Post Braswell > Subject: Re: Braswell Linage > Date: Tuesday, February 04, 1997 7:28 AM > > Bob, > > I think it needs to be RE-RESEARCHED as his book is not big on sources he > just printed whatever somebody sent him.

As the COUNCILs (var. spellings) were closely associated with the BRASWELLs at least as far back as Bertie Co. with Hardy COUNCIL witnessing some BRASWELL deeds. Have you traced these lines back and do they have any intermarriages with the BRASWELL that you can tell? Also noticed the Josiah WISEMAN. Does he have ancestry in Rowan Co., NC? My BAIRD / HUNT / GREEN(E) line comes from here and WISEMAN is a collateral line to mine. Some of these people migrated to Smith Co., TN very early and either stayed or moved on into Kentucky.

I know that family rather well, and chances are you are related since most of the Braswells in that area descend from the same ancestor, namely one VALENTINE BRASWELL (Born c. 1801, Anderson County, Tennessee. Married ELIZABETH BLAND in Saline County, Arkansas, in 1821. Moved to Camden area c. 1843. An influential slaveholder, VALENTINE's family paid dearly in the Civil War, naturally on the side of the South. Valentine retained the most prevalent American form of the original English surname BRACEWELL; most of his kinsmen in Saline County adopted BRAZIL. Other BRASWELLs dropped off relatives in the Camden area so the pedigrees aren't so simple as all that! (With BRASWELL, they never are, heehee!) I have VALENTINE's pedigree back to Elizabethan England....stay tuned for my "data base dump" on that subject! From ???@???

Too many valuable human resources are wasted needlessly because someone created/perpetuated a genealogical untruth, made cannonical by repetition or the passage of time. My mentors in this fascinating science would gladly have such culprits summarily shot! LOL The maiden name of MARYBRASWELL GINN, wife of the lst American WILLIAM BRASWELL, is unknown to me. That is not to say that her parentage will NEVER be known, of course: new records turn up all the time. I checked my Va & NC indexes and saw nothing that would help identify her parentage at this time..... The records from the early 18th century Tidewater area are so scarce and fragmentary, as you know. The area where all this early North Carolina activity took place ("Cashie River, Bridges Creek, Urahaw Swamp" etc. involving the children and grandchildren of RICHARD BRACEWELL (c.1652-c.1725) was near the present day town of Rich Square, Northhampton County, North Carolina.

Very good letter. If you have not shared this info with the list, I think you should. It looks like you sent it to Keith Braswell, our list owner & webmaster. Rev. Keith, you might want to put a few of his notes on the relevant web page? So Rev., you are following in the footsteps of our ancestor Rev. Robt. but can't trace back to him yet!

If you are missing any of these Warren records, please let me know and I'll supply full references. Anent Virginia microfilm, don't despair, dear cousin! I reviewed my copies of my "Braswell Quarterly" last night and see that it sets forth complete texts, references, and comentary on all relevant seventeenth century Virginia Bracewelliana. All we need do now is share it with the others. I'm a bit disappointed that this publication was not already common knowledge among current Braswell researchers inasmuch as my original subscribers included the Virginia State Library, the LDS Genealogical Society in Salt Lake, Newberry Library, Chicago; North Carolina Dept of Archives and History; DAR Library, DC; and numerous Braswell researchers active in the 60's and 70's. Alas! Nothing permanent but change..... And speaking of change, my life fell apart during the first year of my little memeo quarterly---lost personnel directorship job at a Big 8 CPA firm in downtown Houston during the "Oil Patch Bust"; divorced from 1st wife not long thereafter.....moved about and caught up in survival issues after that. Except for the Southwest, which I knew I could do any time, my research is essentially complete and has been for more than 20 years. My immediate relatives are so in dispair of ever seeing my book in print that none even dare ask anymore! LOL Well, their loss is your gain because I still have ALL my files, indexed and ready to share. I guess I may have to resort to "snail mail" if I can't figure out how to upload what I have on floppy discs. This latter was done by a meditation student of mine as payment for her classes. It does contain errors which I've yet to proof, but it's better than nothing, right? LOL If the other Braswell researchers knew what I have for them, they'd be doing handstands! Speaking of interesting Braswelliana, I have the complete transcript of that sad little scandal involving NOEL WILLIAMS "alias BRASWELL'", a bastard got on one of the WILLIAMS girls by a BRASWELL. He was tried in Wilmington (NC) District Court June 1-2, 1768, along with his cohorts TOM & DICK SEAMORE, convicted, and hanged June 10, 1768, at Wilmingtc.on. They were involved in several felonies, including horse-theft, and were brought to court by one JOE KIRKLAND of South Carolina where they had run off to. Do you have that one, Nona? And by the way, Nona, you never answered about the SAMUEL WILLIAMS who accompanied my "BRAZILs" when they pioneered Saline County, Arkansas, in the 1820's.....any idea who he was? All of them seemed to dash around the Mississippi Valley like wild turkeys! LOL Lots of scandals to share....heehee! One involved RICHARD BRASWELL (c.1672-1758), gs of the Immigrant. He was tried for counterfeiting pieces of eight....fascinating story! From ???@???

Please don't get the first impression that I am a genealogical Anarchist! I have the same intense pride of family that drives all of us; but at the same time its important to remember-and to show-that our ancestors were fallible mortals,too. When I say pride (and love) of family, you probably perceive I don't mean ego. For after all, aren't we ALL cousins? And to show an inordinate pride of ancestry is to be as one wit said, "Like the turnip: the best part of you is underground!" LOL Not that I am above debunking myths; OK, I love to! But, through the Grace of the Dao, and some hard midlife knocks, I think I've got a handle on ego by now.... You may have to call it to my attention, Nona, if I get carried away on Southern fundamentalism, Nona, for you see I'm a recovering Southern Baptist PK, 7th generation! LOL Now on to your questions: (1) let's squelch the rumor immediately that RICHARD BRASWELL (c.1672) ever married ANN CARVER! I can hear his descendant, Bill Fields, guffaw all the way from The Meadows! LOL That marriage never happened except where it counts, in the eyes of the Dao. I will share the text of the CARVER-BRASWELL brawl in another E-mail...... (2) I will copy below the complete text of the ROBIN BRASSWELL divorce petition. You can probably tell by the fact that I last called ROBIN "she" in my last missive that I am somewhat rusty on my records. I will attempt to help you solve your pedigree after I have reviewed my data and get refamiliarized with all of it. During the intervening 20 years since this colonial research was essentially complete, I have developed other interests, particularly spiritual astrology and mysticism.....I do astrological readings and teach a weekly Light meditation class. Very much in the Braswell tradition, right? LOL KEITH! Will you and Nona please download the following so's I won't have to repeat it later? Thanks.... LEGISLATIVE PAPERS, 1798. North Carolina Archives, Raleigh, L.P. 157.

In some few months after this she took herself off and stayed near eight years. During which time She has had three more Children of the Same Class, and has now returned home with her youngest Child, which your Petioner Humbly conceives to be a very unnecessary, and at the Same time an uncumfortable expence.-- And furthermore your Petitioner begs leave to observe that there is no tie of friendship existing betwixt him and his said wife CALLEY, more than that of Matrimony in the first Instance She having had white Children;but none are now living-- And to the end, that your Petitioner may be releived from the Vast load of inconveniences he humbly hopes that your Honble Body will take the hardship of his case, under your most Serious Consideration and pass a Law to Divorse him from the said wife CALLEY.

When I had it legally changed back in '73, I tried to get everyone to go with the English original: brasul. It was worse than pulling teeth, so I finally capitulated and went with brace-well, long "a" instead of the original short "a". Anent the pronunciation, my THEORY is that the Prerevolutionary Orange Count(NC) gang were pursuaded to change the sound of the c from soft s (the original) to the hard z due to the influence of the Gaelic-speaking Highland Scots who were their neighbors in Orange-Chatham. I learned in a linguistics course that the Norse-influenced Britains tended to do that, e.g. in changing the pronunciation of "shirt" to "skirt", eventually creating a new word. Perhaps you already know that Cumberland County and environs were settled by deported Scottish followers of "Bonnie Prince Charlie" (Charles Stuart, Pretender) ) after their decisive defeat at Culloden, April 16, 1746. The Braswells ran an "ordinary" or ferryboat/inn operation at the head of Cape Fear River, at the confluence of the Deep and Haw rivers, and must have had much contact with these Scots. There are also deed records showing land purchases from the Scots as well. Most of these "Brazles" who later migrated to Georgia and other parts of the plantation or coastal South were HENRY BRACEWELLs scoins; my branch were among the first converts to the new & then radical Baptist movement (early 1750's), started by Shubal Stearns and other New England fanatics in Orange County. This was the Sandy Creek Association, mother of all Southern Baptist associations. As such they went with the rest of the Baptists into Anson County, rode out the Revolutionary War in the Watauga Settlement area of E Tennessee, and after a few years in Greenville District, South Carolina, spilled over into the Mississippi Valley around 1800 where they scattered like wild ducks! LOL Naturally I can document all these assertions except the THEORY of how Bracewell became "Brazle"; the '"w" was always silent, as in "Greenwich".... From ???@???

Dear Cousin Nona, You're quite welcome for the ROBIN v. CALLEY file. "Robin" was indeed an 18th century diminutive of "Robert" so perhaps your notion that he removed to middle Tennessee later has merit. I have a list of many female firstname derivitives should you ever need it. It has the commonplace "Polly" for "Mary Ann" as well as such exotics as "Patty" a nickname for both "Patience" and "Martha" during historical times. Anent the CARVER v. BRASWELL thing, I guessed as much that a pious cousin "legitimized" their union by wishing up an ersatz "later marriage" LOL I'll do what I can for your Talitha Brazel friend. For years I've gotten querries from Braswell cousins everywhere, most wanting to close the gap between Rev. Robert and some nineteenth century personage. Of course, the descendants of VALENTINE BRACEWELL (c.1692-c.1766) get priority because I have more to share with them. Talitha sounds like she was one such. I have so much to share with the other Braswell researchers, e.g. the interesting fact that there were approximately 20,000 lineal (Braswell) descendants living in the U.S. in 1970, based on their actual numbers in 1790 and 1830, projected forward and offsetting for immigration..... Nona, it made my dreary day to know that you are and Old Soul on the Path, too! So much of my experience in the 60's & 70's was with religiously-conservative cousins with whom I could only talk about genealogy. What a Gift that you are both! I hear you beating yourself up for lapses in spiritual practice; now, now, we musn't "should on ourselves", Cousin! You must be at the right place for your Unfoldment, but I do know what you mean about missing the endorphin rush wnen one stops daily meditation. Interesting that you have a mailorder business; that sounds very Old Soul, too! LOL And would you believe I had a "Darwin fish" on my last pickup? Didn't put one on my new Ram Sports because I was getting ugly looks and acts from fundamentalist rednecks on the way out to my beautiful 75-acre Hill Country Texas retreat! I'm sure Soulmate doesn't want one for the opal Lexus I bought her for Christmas! She did have one on a Jimmy she used to own. I wouldn't share this with anyone else, but I use astrology in genealogy as well. For example, I'll share a personality, character, and destiny analysis of Rev, Robert that'll knock your socks off! Natch, you gotta have an approximate birthday. That effectively knocked out the next several generations for me, down to my great-grandfather, whose Aries birthday is known. This fleshes out and humanizes people in a way that legal records can never do. By the way, my birthday's November 5th....when's yours? Its interesting how strong the urge to spiritual leadership is in many of the Braswell lines, ours obviously included. I'm also a lay minister, one who not only performs weddings, but sets the date as well! LOL Except for VALENTINE (evidently a Gemini-type character, innocent of religious leanings), there is evidence or proof of spiritual leadership in my line right down from the Immigrant. DNA or conditioning? Chicken or the egg? I really don't want to offend any of our cousins out there with my liberal views. I keep reminding myself that "all spokes lead to the Hub", that every path is legitimate, and that one of my heros, Sri Ramakrisha (d. 1887--one of Gandi's heros also) took Initiation in all traditions, including Christian. Natch it was mystic Christianity, a la the monastic tradition.... Well, Cuz, I'll probably have some free time to chat up the Braswell/Williams stuff this weekend.

The evidence that your RICHARD BRAZLE of Fayette County was s/o VALENTINE (1765-1848) is, as usual, circumstantial. When you find your Braswell notes, I'll work with you to establish the preponderance of same to establish your Braswell lineage. VALENTINE was living with his father, RICHARD (c.1723-1800) when the latter died near Clinton, Tennessee, c.1800. VAL inherited a town lot in Clinton from his late father that year (Anderson Co. records) I don't know who "Marge Braswell" is inasmuch as I've not been consistently active in my research since the early 70's, but I do know she's in error about the Braswell genealogy: ROBERT BRACEWELL, Jr. (c.1650) had no legitimate male heirs. The truth of his wife, SUSANNAH BURGESS' laison with one RICHARD TOWLE will be presented in subsequent issues of Keith's newsletter. There were some "Braswell-Towle" descendants in Isle of Wight County, and alas, some of them drifted down into North Carolina to impossibly complicate an already complex genealogical tangle during colonial times. But most of these lines died out quickly, slipping into poverty soon after 1700. All I ask is that we adhere to the rules of evidence and not present speculation as fact. For instance, a question mark should always follow OBEDIENCE SNOW (?)'s name inasmuchas only a family tradition identifies that as her maiden name. This is another bit of information that came from me, degenerating into a given "fact" by the passage of time and my absence to play "watchdog"! LOL You asked about my ties to Illinois. My great-grandfather, JESSE BRAZIL (1827-1888) was born in Fulton County, near Peoria, April 5, 1827, the first son of MOSES and MATILDA ALLEN BRAZIL. Moses married Matilda 2 years before in Johnson County. He was accompanied on his move to Fulton County by his uncles WILLIAM and your VALENTINE. Soon thereafter they all went their separate ways: Uncle WILLIAM (who retained the "Braswell" spelling) pioneering Carroll County, Arkansas; JESSE to join his father RICHARD & brothers pioneering Saline County, Arkansas; and your VALENTINE riding off to meet his destiny in Jo Daviess County, Illinois. By the way, "Braswell" is itself a variant of the original BRACEWELL, albeit the one preferred by at least 85% of the Immigrant's descendants. I have a Camden Co., Arkansas, document that proves the derivation of "Brazil/Brazle, etc. from Braswell. In closing, let me say that I appreciate your sensitivity about not arguing about genealogical matters. But not to worry, cousin! I've spent many hours in prayer/meditation these past two decades getting rid of the spritual impediment, ego, and its brother, fear, so that you need'nt worry about my "sensitivity". There's nothing to defend (illusion), and I'm only interested in the Truth, spiritual and temporal! LOL I have just learned that our coordinator, Keith, is a Christian minister of some sort so I will refrain from further religious comment so as not to offend. Needless to say, religion/spirituality leadership runs strong a most branches of the good Rev. ROBERT's descendants..... For example, ROBERT BRAZIL (c.1771-1825) of Madison County was Moderator of the Illinois Bapitist Association and presided over that fateful meeting in the 1820's when the Illinois Baptists split over the slavery issue, a dark foreboding of the horror to come 40 years later.

LOL} To the person of Baptist background, this document needs little interpretation. The "General Union of United Baptists at large" are clearly what we would call "Southern Baptists" today and were then pro-slavery. Sweet cites this "dividing assunder" elsewhere as an early instance of the division of this denomination over regional differences. {I said earlier that this was c. 1820; I see I was off by a decade. You gotta watch me, guys; I've not examined my Braswelliana thoroughly in YEARS! LOL} There are tons of references to Braswells elsewhere in Sweet's work.I'll cite a few momentarily....Meanwhile, as to persona, I'm sure you guessed who these guys were: The Moderator was ROBERT BRASWELL (c.1771-1825), s/o RICHARD & OBEDIENCE; WILLIAM, his brother (1766-185_); VALENTINE, another brother(1765-1848), all from Looking Glass Prarie Church in Madison County. .......The "ex, exc, and let" notations beside the (Baptized) membership list refers to members excused to join another Baptist congregation, i.e. they moved. "Let" refers to new members received by letter from their former church. By the bye, shall we adopt the convention of referring to all these guys as "Braswell" in the American tradition of majority rule (appx. 85% of Bracewell descendants go by it)? I did a study once and found 56 different ways to misspell Braswell (er, Bracewell). More of Sweet's text.... p. 514: V Brazle R Brazle Jas Downan, Messengers from Richland Creek Church, St. Clair County, at the associational meeting held October 9, 1807 (Madison County was still part of St. Clair in 1809) Membership totaled 19. p. 516: R Brazle Wm Brazle Jos Downan, Messengers from Richland church, 24 members, that met at "J Lemons in the New design", June 10, 1808.

Looking Glass Prairie Church donated $1.00 (of $19.25) collected by the association, October 4, 1816, for the purpose of publishing a "Circular letter" to be sent to other Baptist association churches exhorting them to come together in Christian unity. These letters were popular in those days..... p. 547. "Friday October 9th 1818 lst the Association having convened Elder William Brazel preached the Introductory sermon from John 6th 39th and this is the Fathers will which hath sent me that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing but should raise it up again at the last day..." {Late in 1818, the directors of the Bank of the United States took steps to curtail credit in the U.S.. presenting all state bank notes for immediate payment,refusing to allow personal notes or mortgages to be renewed, thus touching off the Panic of 1819 that sent the pioneers scattering! No doubt this looming disaster was behind the topic of Elder Brazel's sermon. N.B. that Robert Braswell is referred to consistently as "Elder", a title of spiritual respect and responsibility. } At this meeting, Looking Glass Prairie church had 15 members represented by William Brazel, Robert Brazel, and William Paydon. They paid in $1.75 of $13.56 collected by the association. p. 552. Meeting held October 8th & 9th, 1819, at the Looking Glass Prairie Meeting House, St. Clair Co.: Robert Brazel and William Brazel represented Looking Glass with 18 members, 2 added by baptism. The church donated $2.50 of $15.00 received for the association. p. 559. Meeting held October 14-16, 1820, at the Canteen Creek Meeting house Madison County.....Robert Brazel was the delegate from Looking Glass Prairie church, membership 14. 3 members had been dismissed by letter, l exluded, which means "kicked out", not peacefully let go as I previously stated. {Would someone please pass the pecante? My words taste better that way! LOL}Looking Glass donated $3.00 to associational funds. This Robert, who lived on Looking Glass Prairie, Madison County, had a daughter, Polly, who at 16 married a French fur trapper named Andre St. Jean. Andre had a raft of kids by an earlier Indian wife, but when white settlers moved up the Mississippi Valley, he traded up for Polly (Mary Ann). The old cuss outlived 3 wives, including Polly, and made it past 100 before he made his final voyage....... From ???@???

Dear Nona, A couple of more reactions to your last missive.... The "Tempest Family of Bracewell, Yorkshire" IS the Braswell family, and any claims to "royal" connections thereby are entirely specious! Tell your readers who have fallen for that ego-enhancing myth. The Letempests were Normans who took over Bracewell manor after the Conquest of 1066. An astrological note: your mother was indeed your major karmic test this lifetime (Saturn in Cancer in the 10th House), and square your Neptune in the 1st House, gives a struggle with inadequacy feelings (not unknown in Taurus), and a mother whose :..".religious beliefs may be peculiar--dogmatic, rigid, or oppressive in some way. Very often they have martyr complexes and seek sympathy through suffering." Sound familiar? Not here to reopen old wounds, but to heal--the same as you. I'm still dismayed that Dr R.B. Braswell's "Following the Braswells..." has had more impact on Braswell researchers than my stuff! Not ego, just dismay, for I never expected anyone to take him too seriously when it was first published (1973). In rereading my autographed copy, I see he gives ROBERT BRACEWELL,JR. a death date of 1702. What a crock of.....misinformation! The ROBERT who witnessed Owen Bourn's Isle of Wight deed in 1702 was a son of RICHARD BRACEWELL! And Roy glossed right over RICHARD TOWLE's 1692 will that clearly names SUSANNAH's children as his own! And his musings on WILLIAM BRACEWELL (c.1676-1721), wife MARY, who later married GINN--are way off the wall, beginning with WILLIAMs birth/death years, HIS PARENTAGE, his chil dren---and he didn't even acknowledge me as the source of the documentation that he so cavalierly misinterpreted! Instead, he cites Viola Vick who also got her stuff from me! {well, maybe just a TAD of ego here! LOL} What follows is a jumble of Braswelliana that reads like a "Ullyses" of genealogical "stream of consciousness"......LOL My pedigree as given in p. 42 contains some errors, some of them my fault. I was born at Brady, Texas, not "near Smithville..." My Dad, now over 100, is near death now.....he was born near Smithville, delivered by a midwife who was once our slave. (3) my grandpa, JCB, died in 1951, not "1851" before he was even born! (4)great-grandpa was born in Fulton Co., Illinois, near Peoria--not Springfield. He had no middle name--"Light" was my mistake, faithfully reproduced! (5), MOSES, born in ANDERSON Co., Tenn. He did marry in 1820...the Saline County Arkansas Federal Census enumerator for 1850 listed everybody's marriage year, a service he wasn't required to do (may he reborn an Arkansas chicken millionaire! LOL) I reported in an earlier letter today that he married MATILDA in 1825. He married her at 17 and she was 15. Evidently she had some miscarriages before bearing JESSE, her first to survive, in l827. "Generation 6", GEORGE BRAZIL, is totally false; MOSES was son of #7, RICHARD & JEMIMA. This RICHARD was born in 1759 in Orange Co., N.C., and married Scotch-Irish JEMIMA WHITE in Anson County on May 15, 1780 (original Bible record). A charming legend tells how old Scotchy Dad, MOSES WHITE, made RICHARD clear forest and build fences for him before he could wed JEMIMA (labor in place of Old World bride's price!), and RICHARD latter jokingly referred to himself as"like Laban in the Bible who had to labor 14 years for his Rachel." Obviously RICHARD died in 1842, not "1942", the exact date unknown. The hardy old goat married his caregiver, a mere lassy of 66, a year before he died, his JEMIMA having passed earlier. His father, RICHARD (8), was born about 1723, not the "1730's", and had found his OBEDIENCE in the Edgecombe area before him, his Dad, VALENTINE, and his brother HENRY, all pioneered Orange County and the Piedmont lifestyle beginning in 1746. (Naturally that year marks the shift of my main interest in the Braswells westward from the Tar Valley to beyond the Fall Line and happenings on the Piedmont. The conversion of RICHARD's branch to the Baptist faith about 1754 was a milestone event, separating him forever from his brother HENRY's bunch and causing them to remove to Anson County farther southwest (along with their intact Baptist community) when the Regulator Rebellion troubles made Orange/Chatham too hot for their newlypacifist tastes. Early Baptists were often converted Quakers and had strong Pacifist convictions--a far cry from today's Baptists, eh? It lasted at least until this century, my Grandfather Cal being totally upset with my Dad when he answered the call to arms against Germany in 1917!) RICHARD (c. 1723) died near Clinton, Anderson Co., Tennessee, in 1800 (probate records) RB is right that RICHARD was a great-grandson of the Immigrant (although he copies his birthyear wrong--1611 instead of "1613". The intervening generations you know--and share: RICHARD (c.1652-1725) and VALENTINE (c.1682-1766). By the bye, I'd love to connect that ROBERT BRAZEL "born June 25, 1807, in Madison Co., Illinois" with the appropriate son of RICHARD & OBEDIENCE. He evidently just came out west to die--in the very county where I was born! Hmmmm? Could my vision have been wrong? Nawwww! LOL The Palmyra Brasel whose lineage is correctly given on page 55 was one of my favorite cousin correspondents. Her ancestor, JAMES BRASWELL's murder in Knox County, Tennessee, in 1799, is well documented. Morgan County, the present location of the murder, still has a "Brasel's Knob" on its maps. Pal was actually divorced and living with her son, Denny, at the time of this correspondence, but who cares about such niceties as accuracy? It seems that he was murdered by two frontier cutthroats named HARPE, who learned their killing skills in the guerilla warfare days in Revolutionary South Carolina. So even though the pacifist Baptist Braswells and their allied families rode out the war in East Tennessee, they still couldn't escape their revoltionary war karma.....At page 57, he mixes Braswells with Breazeales in South Carolina....Whew! What a mess! Not that the Baptists weren't patriots at heart: DAVID HALL's Revoltionary War pension application of 1832, Anderson Co., Tennessee (HALL m. RICHARD's daughter, OBEDIENCE ("Jr") in Wilkes County, North Carolina, January 20, 1784, where the Braswells and their Baptist connections had returned, from Wautauga, Tenn area, after the Treaty of Paris (1783) ended the fighting. HALL's interesting account of his unit's struggles with hostile Indians, Torries, and smallpox makes interesting reading and sheds clear light on our Braswells' perigrinations during those crucial--and poorly documented -- years of unrest during and after the Revolution. One other strange Braswell story: A few years ago, I met a Braswell descendant who was living in a motel here in Austin. She, too, was a genealogist of sorts and had a fantastic collection of Braswell/Brazil pedigrees. She knew immediately who I was, but acted as though she had nothing to learn from me! She was what I call a "name collector" rather than a true genealogist or family historian. Don't remember her name and don't know what became of her.....very strange indeed! From ???@???

Here's what I come up with on that name: In Tennessee, I find an ELIJAH BRASWELL in his 20's on the Smith County Federal Census of 1840, living next door to his father, JOHN BRASWELL (b. Ca 1771) youngest son of RICHARD & OBEDIENCE SNOW(?) BRASWELL, but this one may be too young to be yours. The ELIJAH in Roane County on the same census is a Breazeale, not a Braswell. In North Carolina, I find a marriage record from 1792 in Edgecombe County uniting ELIJAH BRASWELL and LUCY "FIRE", doubtless your ancestors, but have we skipped a generation somewhere? They'd be too old to hatch a brood between 1818 and 1840. And for Halifax County, I find a mysterious entry (no reference apparent) stating that an ELJAH BRASWELL was born there in 1792. This would be the right age to match your LUCINDA ("Lucy")...... As to MARMADUKE, my NC index shows that in the St. George's Parish Register for January 14, 1803, (Northampton County), it was "Ordered that MARMADUKE BRASSEL be allowed 24.7.0 for keeping SAVREY MITCHELL and child until Jan. next." Given the rareity of this Christian name, I would suspect a connection between this guy and your ancestor, born some 15 years later.....This same guy turns up on a muster roll of North Carolina Volunteers in the War of 1812, in the 1st (McDonald's) Regiment of North Carolina militia as "MARMADUKE BRASWELL", along with Sergeant WILLIAM BRACEWELL, Fifer HEARDY Y. BRACEWELL, JOHN BRACEWELL, and WHITMILL BRASWELL. (Index to Service Records of Volunteer Soldiers, War of 1812", National Archives) I would have liked to have presented you with documented connection back to the Immigrant, Keith, but that will take some more work. As I stated in one of yesterday's missives, my interest {and intense research} shifted from the Edgecombe "Mother lode" of Braswells after 1746, when VALENTINE & company took off for Orange County and the Piedmont. I gave the best years of my mental life to trying to sort out the colonial North Carolina Braswells but finally gave it up as a lost cause: simply not enough documents, too many lines dying out or otherwise disappearing, people too poor (thanks mostly to British mercantile policy) to leave behind many records, too few first names duplicated among the different branches, and the occasional "joker" showing up from Virginia who was in fact a BRASWELL-TOWLE imposter! But WE WILL PREVAIL! Despair not! LOL Yes, I would certainly hope that you would share my findings with the other Braswell researchers. All I ask, as I said before, is that edited materials be sent exactly as edited..... I will answer those querries where I can be of substantial help. Those who have traced their line back to the Carolinas get first priority. I can't and won't help those who need to do their own homework back through at least the Federal census records, and have little patience with those who simply guess at undocumented connections.....

I'm adding "dbras1" to my address book since he/she is an obvious Player in this mystery, too. With the addition of this file, I now have more clues than OJ's blood on your lineage, so I'll see what I can piece together. One obvious tag end to tie to is MARMADUKE STRICKLAND. As you may know, there were other, earlier Bracewell-Strickland connections in Virginia. And MARMADUKE is another wonderfully rare Christian name--there was only one, MARMADUKE KIMBREL (#50), on the 1740 Bertie-Edgecombe Jurymen list of 470 for instance, another case evidently of the then current- fashion of using mothers' maiden names as first names. From the same 1740 source, among all the Johns, James, and Thomases, we find others of the same class such as VALENTINE BRASWELL and BRASWELL BRIDGER (#339), each "one of a kind". The reference to ELIJAH BRASWELL's 1792 marriage was in my Halifax, North Carolina file. It had no source citation, being from my very first year in genealogy, back during the late Eisenhower (or was it Taft?LOL) Administration, when I was a mere stripling of 21 and hadn't yet snapped to the import of proper documentary citation. Am I forgiven? Thanks! LOL So for now, consider that data as suspect and don't let it throw you. Indeed, keep the Faith, Cousin! I've helped solve much tougher cases than yours. Twenty years ago when all my files were fresh in my mind we could have cracked it in minutes. Now it'll take a little longer--have to clear out two decades of cobwebs first! A personal note you'll appreciate: yesterday Soulmate & I went to a black wedding here in Austin on-where else?-Martin Luther King Blvd. The remarkable thing about it was that it was a PERFECT wedding, a first for me. The sanctuary was perfect: Baptist plain, lots of natural (God)light streaming in on mostly polished wooden fixtures, an energy of positive Christian love and acceptance. The pianist, a Doctor of Music from U.T. (my alma mater), played like I havn't heard since my mother played, and the soloist was exquisite. She sang the Lord's Prayer as the congregations' prayer of well-wishing. The little light-skinned flowergirl could model, she was so perfect! The ministers (2) were genuine, loving, polished. Most unusual--not a single faux pas! I was almost supersititious for the couple's future without at least one screw up! LOL The Pastor had done a thorough precana with them, and spoke as much to them individually as to the congregation......very impressive, even by Braswell standards! Well, time to get to it....and to get the "Braswell Quarterly" stuff copied and off to you. There's no need to go "filing off to N Carolina" as Governor Byrd said: we have enough data already to establish your connection to the Immigrant and beyond. Keep the faith my cousin!

Do you want only from the Braswell branch or my whole file? Just to remind you, we are the ones with the second wife and family to Elijah Thomas Braswell. I have only been doing this for a month and am using Cumberland Family Tree (shareware). It does whatever it needs to do in Gedcom format. I downloaded your Gedcom file and am in the process of merging and cleaning up. The program has a few bugs and I am a fairly "green" computer operator so bear with me. My parents in law are with me for another week, my mother in law is also very into this genealogy stuff and she will be going back to IL, armed with a lot of asignments. How long have you been doing this? I would be very interested in all of the approaches you have used to search past Elijah so I don't duplicate you work, any guidance would be appreciated. This has been very exciting as you well know. We discovered 2 generations farther than we knew with the click of the mouse and with the help of your page and a printed descendant list in an archive file. I wish the other families we are seaching were that simple. The homepage is GREAT! keep up the hard work. This is a little bio on our side, I am going to put a polished version on the subscriber list soon. Elijah Thomas first wife died and he remarried Minnie Thompson, they had 5 boys, one of which was my husband's (Guy) grandfather, Ruel Braswell. All of the first and second families were born and raised in Paducah, KY. My in-laws live in central IL. We lived in St. Louis area for 11 years and am probably in Texas for the long term, hopefully permenantly. All of the details of this branch will be in the gedcom files. We have a nice photo of ET & Minnie. Guy is a computer systems programmer, we are going to scan many documentments before his folks leave, any advice there would be welcome as well. I grew up in Murphysboro, IL (not too far from PB, MO. We look forward to hearing from you. Karen From ???@???

Please download and share with others working on this research problem: Starting in 1740, and due to economic pressures, there was a strong outflow of population from southside Virginia into North Carolina. Your Marmaduke's family was a part of this. They came down the south side of the Roanoke River and settled south of Halifax, seat of present Halifax County. The pater familias of this Halifax branch appears to have been JAMES BRASWELL, a grandson of RICHARD BRACEWELL (c.1652-1725). The question as to which son of RICHARD founded this branch will be answered by a thorough examination of the STRICKLAND records of both states, an association which we already know began with the marriage of RICHARD's daughter ANN' to MATTHEW STRICKLAND, JR., in Isle of Wight Co around the turn of the eighteenth century. JAMES and kinsman JOSEPH BRASWELL are seated on Little Swamp in southern Halifax County by the early 1740's. JAMES BRASWELL of Halifax evidently had several sons, among the eldest, JAMES, Jr., and DRURY. Other sons apparently included DAVID, JACOB, BENJAMIN, possibly JOSEPH. As scions of the fourth generation from the Immigrant, they were all born around the middle of the eighteenth century. JAMES, Jr I would guess at Circa 1755, DRURY about 1760 and the rest accordingly. As you know, there was heavy intermarriage between them and the STRICKLANDS, and that should provide an easy handle to solve the pedigree since that association can be tracked back to Virginia, if not to Isle of Wight, one of the neighboring counties. Evidently one of JAMES' sons married MARY STRICKLAND, sister to PHEREBY STRICKLAND ALSOBROOK, daughter of HERMAN STRICKLAND who died in Halifax in 1796. The next year saw the passing of MARMADUKE STRICKLAND, father of LYDIA STRICKLAND who married DRURY BRASWELL. I believe that you will find this lastnamed pair are your ancestors: DRURY & LYDIA BRASWELL appear to be the parents of the first MARMADUKE BRASWELL, born about 1780 and died in l832, Halifax. As the owner of 18 slaves and "sombody" in his community, it seems more than plausible that a younger son of DRURY & LYDIA, ELIJAH BRASWELL, would also name his son "Marmaduke" in 1818, in honor of the child's illustrous uncle and late grandfather. ELIJAH very likely was born about 1792, nearly if not the youngest son (wish I had that 1792 reference!) of DRURY & LYDIA. That would make him just right, age-wise, for LUCINDA FIERS, born c. 1795. It would seem that the story from there was: ELIJAH & LUCY moved to Edgecombe County with their brood (including your MARMADUKE), where ELIJAH died intestate in 1835. Then MARMADUKE and his widowed mother, LUCY, headed west, where they had seated in Livingston County, Kentucky, by 1840. FYI, the "Byrd William Braswell" in Guilford County was a scion of the Orange-Chatham bunch, not yours. Another loose end is the identity of the husband of SARAH BRUCE BRASWELL who was married by l762, Halifax.....was she JAMES' wife---JOSEPH's?---someone elses? Time will tell. With deeper spadework in Halifax, Virginia, and the Strickland connection, this thing should be wrapped up in no time! It's no challenge compared with trying to identify all those "Wild turkey" Braswells that scattered all over the Mississippi Valley after 1800, leaving little or no paper trails behind them! LOL So what do you think, Cousin? From ???@???

The county is McCracken and the surrounding counties are Livingston, Ballard, Graves, Marshall, and Massac county Illinois, right across the Ohio River. The Paducah Public Library has a fair number of books on all of these counties if anyone needs something looked up. They also have an on-line card catalog via a direct dial-in connection. I do not know the number off the top of my head, but if anyone is interested, I’ll get it for them. My parents were both born east of Nashville ( mother - McMinnville : father - Brush Creek ) but both grew up in Nashville. I was born in Port Deposit, Maryland. No family ties there, my father was in the Navy at the time. Braswell is a collateral line of mine, and until recently I did not have very much on them.. My G.G.GF was William H. (Billie) Blackburn. He married Amy Lou Braswell, dau of William Braswell and Chloe Viars (or is it Shehane?). They were from DeKalb county Tennessee. At this point I do not have much to contribute to the list, so I’ll set back, watch, and learn. Lee Blackburn Researching Blackburn, Hickey, Redmon and VanHooser and collateral lines. From ???@???

I am forwarding to Keith for republication my short-lived "Braswell Quarterly" (1973-74) which contains Braswelliana from England and Virginia. The latter is a definitive collection of all the important Braswell papers from colonial Isle of Wight County before 1750, arranged chronologically, and rendered in their original form, complete with signature marks, including everything relating to your ANN BRACEWELL STRICKLAND (c.1682), wife of MATTHEW STRICKLAND, Jr--your ancestors. As you read in my missive to Keith, Strickland and Halifax records will solve his Braswell pedigree, in my estimation. With your Halifax webpage, you're in a unique position to help us extract all the Braswell-Strickland data from Halifax; would you? I think you'll find it a "quid pro quo" arrangement, inasmuch as the Isle of Wight material will add materially to your knowledge of that lineage for you. From ???@???

Dear Cousin Keith, Thank you for your generous reception of my evaluation of your Marmaduke's antecedents. My technique is as low-tech as it is effective: arrange all data (from typewritten, indexed notes) on a given research problem by date and place. Read the whole in one sitting, getting a sense of the rythm of the family's lifestyles and evolution. Apply liberal amounts of patience, common sense, understanding of human nature, and historical social patterns, and voila! The solution usually pops into focus like a developing photograph. The evidence for DREW BRASWELL's marriage to LYDIA STRICKLAND is contained in "DREWRY BRASWELL and wife LYDIA to JAMES POWELL" (Halifax Deed Book p. 282 (222) in which the Braswells transfer their right to 50 acres, 1/3 of tract formerly belonging to MARMADUKE BRASWELL, Deceased (1797). This is clearly LYDIA's inheritance from her late father, adjacent the couple's home farm, and her kinsman, JOHN STRICKLAND. Drury seems the likely father of your ELIJAH, but other evidence, not yet unearthed, may point to another son of JAMES, Sr, e.g. JAMES, Jr., as ELIJAH's dad. As I said before, 100% coverage of extant Halifax and Strickland records will surely solve your pedigree for all time. The Halifax bunch were clearly Virginia emigres; the only question is from where. I suspect a tie to JOHN BRACEWELL (b. ca 1688), the youngest son of RICHARD BRACEWELL (c. 1652-1725), who was alone among his brothers in staying behind in Isle of Wight County while the rest of his brothers "filed off to N Carolina....." early in the eighteenth century. Again, I point out that they came down the west side of Roanoke, suggesting a home county west of Isle of Wight. We may be dealing with another "burned out" county then, but the records are rich enough (and close enough in time and space to the original Immigrant's family) that I feel a definitive solution is not far off. The children of JACOB BRASWELL (c.1684-17__), another of RICHARD's sons, have never been successfully identified so that is another possible, if less likely, progenitor of the Halifax Braswells.

I have been playing with my family genealogies for about 40 years, but got serious about it after I acquired Family Tree Maker for Windows about 3 years ago. I have my Brazell lineage chased back to James Brazell of North Carolina, b 1787. I believe that the name was spelled several ways, prior to the early 1800's. I have not been able to exchange gedcom files with Harold and Nita Brusha, yet. They were able to read my files, but I have not been able to read her PAF files into my FTW program??? I would like to exchange info with you if you are interested. My wife and I went to Ireland in 1995, but was not prepared to chase any ancestors then. I keep finding reason to believe that the family came from Ireland, but have not found the immigrant.

I am forwarding to Keith for republication my short-lived "Braswell Quarterly" (1973-74) which contains Braswelliana from England and Virginia. The latter is a definitive collection of all the important Braswell papers from colonial Isle of Wight County before 1750, arranged chronologically, and rendered in their original form, complete with signature marks, including everything relating to your ANN BRACEWELL STRICKLAND (c.1682), wife of MATTHEW STRICKLAND, Jr--your ancestors. As you read in my missive to Keith, Strickland and Halifax records will solve his Braswell pedigree, in my estimation. With your Halifax webpage, you're in a unique position to help us extract all the Braswell-Strickland data from Halifax; would you? I think you'll find it a "quid pro quo" arrangement, inasmuch as the Isle of Wight material will add materially to your knowledge of that lineage for you. --===========================_ _= 4371643(212)-- From ???@???

From the repetition of JAMES' among Elijah's grandsons, I think you can just about take it to the bank that you descend from JAMES BRASWELL, Sr, but not through his son, DRURY. DAVID, perhaps? Given the prominence of JAMES DAVIDs...... Obviously a comprehensive study of all Braswell-Strickland records in eighteenth century Halifax County will solve the question of which son of JAMES, Sr. was ELIJAH's dad. And it would still seem more than likely that ELIJAH's mom was a daughter of old MARMADUKE STRICKLAND,another besides LYDIA. It was just too convenient to tie ELIJAH to DRURY & LYDIA. But had DRURY been ancestral, that name would have been repeated and preserved, which it was not. The intriguing question remains, which grandson of the Immigrant sired JAMES, Sr.? JOHN or JACOB of RICHARD BRACEWELL's family are viable candidates. We can't rule out the possibility of a Braswell-Towle connection here through SUSANNAH BURGESS and ROBERT BRACEWELL, Jr. (c.1650- ). The chase will be rewarding! I plan to get that copy of my "Braswell Quarterly" in the mail to you tomorrow. CAREY From ???@???

But I do have lots of records online (gedcoms, cemetery records, etc.) and I am literally adding more to the site everyday. There's a Brazell cemetery that I've already put online. (Btw, one person that hasn't been put online yet is : Braswell, Thomas Joel 1917-1980, buried in the St. Marys Oak Grove Cemetery, Camden County. That's the only Braswell I have in my records - but my records aren't complete. The Brazells have been in this area for well over 100 years - possibly even for 200 years.

The edited-out pages from the first issue are no great loss: they were sundry English items, including US immigration records, that were put in to make the point upfront that there were many more Bracewells in England and the states than just our Rev. ROBERT's bunch. This edited portion included exerpts from the 1970 London City phone directory, 19th century passenger lists, etc--nothing germane to our research directly. 2. I think you'll find the Virginia materials complete and definitive of our FFV, "First Family of Virginia". But if any documents are missing, I probably have it in loose form; just let me know, OK? (Complete for Isle of Wight Co., that is.) 3. How you use these materials is your business, of course, but you may find it difficult to send the whole by E-mail (signature marks, antique handwriting marks, etc.) so xeroxing may be the only way to share it completely. 4. The addenda is included because it was in my Virginia file and too good not to share! I included Governor Byrd's "History of the Dividing Line" for human interest and so's you'll understand my reference to "filing off to N Carolina" all the time! Understand that Byrd wasn't serious in his condemnation of the Carolina emigrees; just a little colonial humor! LOL On the map you will find my VALENTINE BRACEWELL (c.1682-1766) seated just 100 yards north of the provincial boundary;probably not by accident (various governors complained about folks who were "boundary-sitting"). Note also that this was near a ferry, a business VALENTINE's family engaged in (along with running an "ordinary", or Inn) when they removed to Orange County later and set up shop at the head of Cape Fear River, where the Deep and Haw rivers converge near Moncure, N.C. Enjoy! I'll have responses to your other messages later. Just wanted to let you know I've delivered on my promises to you. From ???@???

They were done by a meditation student of mine as service in lieu of payment. She tried to be conscientious but the list is bound to contain mistakes, so be advised there will be errors! I didn't proofread all her work (unlike the "Braswell Quarterly" materials, even now on the way to you and Nona via USPS). The code for county names, rendered as numbers on your printout, will follow. "CSA" means a Confederate service record. "MISC", the Miscellaneous section at the back of each state file. The names are sometimes rendered as on the original document, sometimes just generic "Braswell", at the whim of the student helper. In those western states where all the records are nineteenth century, the "18" is left off and just the year's two digits rendered, at least on the original.

Has the family handed down the Braswell name all these years? I have my Boardvine Braswell born 1799 supposedly in Surry County, North Carolina. I am searching for his father. If I can figure that out, I can probably tie into the other research. I am interested in the Braswells who stayed in the Virginia area, because some of the people in Surry County came straight from Virginia rather than way of eastern North Carolina. Looking at the North Carolina Braswells haven't produced by Boardvine's parents, so thought I would look also in virginia. Do you have anything on the William who was in Norfolk County, VA? A Sampson and George were in Surry County, NC, in 1771. George disappears but Sampson is there until 1785. Then a Talitha Brazil receives a land grant in 1792 in Surry County and disappears before 1800. I think all of the sons of the emigrant moved to North Carolina except one, who stayed?

Foy ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---------------- Subj: braswell Date: 97-02-22 12:02:51 EST From: RHofm50129 To: Foy Brasw Hi, I am trying to find out the names of the children of Elizabeth Braswell and Kinchen Barnes. Kinchen and Elizabeth married in Sumner County, Tenn. I don't have the date at hand, somewhere around 1807. I am looking for the father of George Washington Barnes born 1819 (1 source says 1812.) Kinchen had brothers John and William. Therein lies the problem. I have not found probate for any of the 3. I know that the brothers moved on to Alabama. No probate there either.

I am unable to differentiate between two brothers, one of whom fathered my ancestor. George Washington Barnes was born in 1819 (one source says 1812) in Tenn. His father was either John Barnes who married a Turney or Kinchen Barnes who married Elizabeth Braswell in Sumner Co. Tenn. in 1806. These families went on to Alabama, and there are simply no records that help me decide between these two brothers, or at least none I have found. Is there anyone out there who can help me? I'd send your firstborn child to Harvard! (Just kidding. You may not sue me on this.) I know that George Washington married the widow of his cousin, but I can't even find a marriage record for her first marriage. He married her in Blount Co. Alabama in 1843. In case family names ring a bell children of Nancy and her first husband: James, John, Mary, Sarah, Selah (as in Deloach), and Franklin. children of GEORGE WASHINGTON BARNES who may be a Braswell descendant and Nancy: Melvina Caroline, Hannah Lucy Ann, Alzaba Samantha, Jesse Watson, and Albert.

Sometimes I'm able to help. Other times I could help if I took the time to really dig (e.g. an Illinois connection that was easy for me to make, even though the researcher is yet to acknowledge my help), but I tend to operate on a "quid pro quo" basis. That means I'm most interested in helping the serious Braswell researchers FIRST, namely you 2 & Keith at this point. Not that I'm not filled with compassion for the multitude looking for some obscure Braswell connection: they need all the help that they can get! But I say, let charity begin at home(page?)....LOL You guys have probably already surmised that the bulk of my data is on these places & periods: ISLE OF WIGHT, Va (1649-1750) ALBEMARLE SOUND REGION (Chowan/Bertie/Edgecombe, 1700-1745) ORANGE-CHATHAM-ANSON (1745-1780) GREENVILLE DISTRICT, SC (1780's-1810) KNOX-ANDERSON, TN (1799-1830's) SOUTHERN ILLINOIS (1800-1830) PULASKI-SALINE, ARK (1820-1870) Anybody with Braswell-Brazil connections to those places & periods can tie-in with my info fairly quickly. Others will take time. Please keep the querries coming, though; especially the ones that look like they may derive from the above places/times. CAREY From ???@???

That's just another example of what can happen to a fine memory after 20 years' lapse! Again I beg your patience as I attempt to brush away two decades of cobwebs....LOL. The reason for the change is I examined my Family Group Sheets and found FREDERICK listed there. And I never entered a name on these sheets unless I had better evidence than that against OJ that the connection was valid. (Notice I hesitate to say PROOF of the connection, which is hard to come by with our Braswells, LOL), At any rate, here are the known children of RICHARD & OBEDIENCE. Please save for future reference: RICHARD BRACEWELL was born in North Carolina c. 1723 and married OBEDIENCE SNOW(?) in the 1740's. 12 children are attributed to them, the first 7 born in Orange County, the remainder in Anson: (1) GEORGE (c. 1750) m. POLLY MORGAN, Anson Co., c.1770. (2) FREDERICK (c.1752-1828) m. ELIZABETH______. (In Wilkes 1781-82) Died Jackson Co., Ga., 1828. (3) ELIZABETH (c. 1757). m. JAMES BUTLER, Anson Co., c.1775. d. Tenn. (4) RICHARD 'BRAZIL", Jr. (1759-1842) m.JEMIMA WHITE, Anson Co., May 15, 1780. Died Saline Co., Ark. (my g-g-g-grandfather) (5) JAMES (c. 1761-1799) m. NANCY MAXWELL in Wilkes Co., c.1783.

(9) JOHN (c.1770's). m. Greenville District, S.C. to REBECCA PRUITT c.1790. (Many LDS researchers descend from him through their daughter, DIANAH BRASWELL SMITH. a Smith Bible confirms much of this data. (10) SARAH (c. 1770's) (11) PATIENCE (c.1770's) m.

Our PC doesn't translate MIME. Its an IBM compatible with Windows. Could you upload on "text file" or do a "cut & paste"? To answer your other questions: (1) Bv's taxable estate as rendered in 1833 is the actual taxable value of his personal & real property, not credit. The only institution offering credit those days to individuals was basically the Federal land program. (2) Middle names were not unknown (e.g. Byrd William Bracewell) but rare before the 1850's; (3) Have you any idea why Loretta thought Bv's dad might have been a WILLIAM? It is distinctly possible that the WILLAM BRASWELL who pioneered Carroll County, Arkansas, could be your man, Bv being of course by unknown Wife #1--I'll have to research that one farther.....WILLIAM's subsequent wife, ELIZABETH, was born in South Carolina c. 1787, according to the 1850 Census of Carroll County, WILLIAM was then about 84, 21 years older than his wife, who, for all we know, may have been wife #3 or 4! Remember that saying: "Most pioneers wore out three farms and at least two wives in a lifetime". They lived in an area known as Green Forest. In 1850 WILLIAM's sons living nearby were ROBERT (b. Illinois, c.1815) with kids JOHN, JESSE,ELIZABETH,MELCINDA,SAMUEL, & ROBERT,Jr. Brother CHARLES, b. Missouri c.1819, had SUSANNAH, NANCY,JOSEPH, & ROBERT. Widowed sister-in-law MARY (TABOR) BRASWELL , b. Tennessee c. 1820, had DELITHA,ANDREW J., MARY ANN, &CATHERINE. Another brother to ROBERT, SIMON, had no wife and only 6 year old THOMAS B. BRASWELL. (4) JAMES BRASWELL (d.1799) was murdered in what is now Morgan or Roane County--I forget which but I could look it up.....there is a "Brasel's knob" still on the map where he was murdered..... (5) Yes, the FREDERICK in Surry and Wilkes during the Revolutionary war period was the son of RICHARD & OBEDIENCE. He moved to Georgia when the new states started giving away land to attract immigrants.... (6) Brady, Texas, is the seat of McCulloch County. Interestingly, a ROBERT BRAZEL, born in Illinois, I think in 1805 (another one I'd have to look up) died there in the last century and is buried in the Mercury community, not far from where I was born. I have a small Hill Country retreat (75 acres) just across the San Saba River from Mcculloch County, in Menard County. I havn't determined this ROBERT's pedigree, but I'm pretty sure he's "family" just doing the "Braswell thing"----disappearing without a trace! LOL CAREY From ???@???

At least 85% of the descendants of the Reverend Robert Bracewell (1611-1668) of London and Isle of Wight Co., Virginia, go by "Braswell", so that it how we commonly refer to this far-flung Southern family. I am not an authority on Georgia Braswells, although some members of my own family's lineage did pioneer various parts of your state. The untangling of these pedigrees is, to say the least, challenging! I can tell you and your subscribers that most Braswells whose names reflect the "Z" sound in the first syllable descend from one VALENTINE BRACEWELL (c.1682-c.1766) of Orange (present Chatham) County, North Carolina. Many factors complicate the picture in Georgia, as elsewhere: for one, there are other, unrelated Bracewell immigrants who turned up there in the nineteenth century. Worse, there is the BREAZEALE family from Charleston that also contributed to Georgia's settlement. They can be distinguished from Braswells, despite the commonly-found similarities of spelling, by these criteria: (1) Breazeales were basically "Plantation types" and were more often literate, meaning fewer variations in spelling; (2) most Breazeale variants are easy to spot because of the obvious phoenetic differences, e.g. the ever-popular "Brazeel" (long e sound); (3) early on, distinct differences in Christian name preferences (e.g. "Cannon, Willis, Aiken" etc. among the Breazeales; "Richard, Robert, William, Valentine" etc. among the Braswells. Not that there weren't wealthy planter Braswells, there were; but the anti-slavery sentiment of two generations of Quaker mothers in VALENTINE's lineage made them more often Yeomen farmers who lived by their own labor.

Dear Cousin Keith, Help! Once again the AOL Daemon done got me! LOL Could you please please forward this brilliant piece onto our Georgia querent? Address technology still has me whipped! I enjoyed your humor about your other wife, "Puterina". Loving humor (and transcendental love of God experienced when they lifted their Taurean voices in sacred song) is one of my fondest childhood memories of my seminary-graduate parents! Here's one for you: (from some 19th century British wit. I'll get the reference from my collection of aphorisms if you want to use it at a deacons'/associational meeting: "As a business, the profession of preacher is about as profitable as a celluloid dog chasing an asbestos cat through Hell....." Maybe you've already heard that one, but I think it's good. PKs of honest pastors (not today's overly-publicized "showmen") don't need an interpreter for that one! But growing up in urban Walton Family-type home, one does learn VALUEs! I understand why you need a day job to support your spiritual habits! LOL Cuz, you really have to watch me till I get refamiliarized with my materials. I try to be 100% accurate, but I noticed in my "Maps & Pictures" collection that I made a misstatement about St. Luke's Church, Isle of Wight: Earlier I said the altarware was probably imported by Rev. Robert. Truth is, only the chalice dates from his period; the flagons and paten are dated later. BUT the beautiful "Father Smith" organ has been dated at 1665. Our Rev. was Vicar until 1668. Everything else was accurate. I forgot to add that not only is St. Luke's "the oldest existing church of English foundation in the United States of America" but also "...the only surviving original Gothic building in the nation." What a heritage we share! Every sentient Braswell should make this pilgrimage at least once, as to our very own Kaaba!

I didn't proofread all her work (unlike the "Braswell Quarterly" materials, even now on the way to you and Nona via USPS). The code for county names, rendered as numbers on your printout, will follow. "CSA" means a Confederate service record. "MISC", the Miscellaneous section at the back of each state file. The names are sometimes rendered as on the original document, sometimes just generic "Braswell", at the whim of the student helper. In those western states where all the records are nineteenth century, the "18" is left off and just the year's two digits rendered, at least on the original.

Here is some information about Elijah and his children. I am a decendant of Elijah BRASWELL who lived in Halifax Co., NC. I am not sure of date of his birth but I believe that died some time before 1840. He was married before 1818 to a Lucinda "Lucy" Fiers whom was born about 1795 in Virginia. Of Elijah and Lucy's children; Marmaduke b. 1818, Harriett, Mary L., Elizabeth, Lucinda Ann, James David, and Cynthia, Marmaduke was my GGGrandfather. If you have any information about Elijah I would love to hear from you! I can give more information but I am pressed for time. I must leave for work... I will forward some of Carey's speculations about my family that could be included with the query.

I'll check your data against mine, per usual. Today was an absolutely brutal day at the office, so I won't even try to make a response tonight, except to say thanks again. I did have an INTUITION today that Boardvine was a son of WILLIAM (c.1766-185_); there's just an indefinable "feel" about his family that resonates with what I know about Wm's second (or third?) family in Arkansas. I know what intuition is worth in this business--as we say in Texas, "that & six bits will get you a Lone Star Longneck" (beer), but sometimes we have to play our hunches, don't we?

All one needs to know is that the name is of English, not Irish, derivation at least in this family. I think the "Irish quesion" was introduced when Bracewells started intermarrying with girls of Scotch-Irish descent once they moved off the Eastern coastal plain onto the Piedmont. That was certainly the case in my lineage wherein every generation past RICHARD BRACEWELL (c.1723-1800) married a gal who was all, or part Ulster Scot. Hence the origin of a bogus "three brothers from Ireland" creation story that cost me months of wasted preliminary research on this line.True,. many Irish O'Brazils and similar spellings came to America. I also found TONS of Portuguese "Brazils" who immigrated in the 19th century,mostly to Boston (I had the luxury back in the 70's of having constant access to Federal and on-site colonial records). A little paper I wrote that has been reprinted elsewhere makes a distinction between the "mainline" Bracewells (85% of whom use "Braswell"), the Brazuls (mostly descendants of VALENTINE BRACEWELL (c.1682-c.1766)of Orange County, N.C., and the totally unrelated but similarly spelled (and misspelled) BREAZEALE family of Charleston.

Dear Cousin, I am embarrased to admit authorship of that piece of fiction that Braswells originated in Ireland. This bit of misinformation comes from my first year of research (1958) when I was a freshman history major at the University of Texas (I had my family's name legally changed to Bracewell in 1973). At 21, I knew it all. At 60, I'm still learning! LOL I took two truths--namely there is an O,Brasel/Brazil,etc. family in Ireland (which has contributed several immigrants to America), and that the English Bracewells originated in Bracewell, York--and cobbled together that bogus THEORY. My motives were good--a maiden aunt, LAURA BRAZIL (1869-1953) passed down the legend that our family originated with "three brothers from Ireland". Since the rest of her information was being confirmed as true at that time, I naturally assumed this one was true also and made the fictitious link alluded to above. In fact, the legend probably originally referred to the family of one of my Scotch-Irish ancestresses, inasmuch as every ancestor beginning with RICHARD 'BRAZIL' (1759-1842) married a girl who was Ulster Scot, or mostly so. My sincere regrets for my youthful liberties with the Truth. CAREY HAMILTON BRACEWELL From ???@???

Dear Cousin Kate, I couldn't keep you in suspense any longer! Here is your RICHARD's connection to his namesake, RICHARD BRASWELL( c.1723-c.1800), (husband to OBEDIENCE SNOW(?): VALENTINE BRASWELL was born to the above couple while they were still living in Orange Co., N.C. about 1765, during the "Regulator" Period. He was about the middle child of a dozen kids. By now his family had been Baptist about a decade and were already beginning to separate from his Uncle HENRY BRASWELL's bunch, most of whom we still "hell-raisers" (Cf. Regulator records). They identified most with their new Baptist brethren, then a new and radical "sect" in the South! The Orange County Braswells (or "Brazles" as most became) were founded by your Valentine's namesake and paternal grandfather, VALENTINE BRACEWELL (c.1682-c.1766), who pioneered the Piedmont in the mid-1740's, with sons RICHARD (Val's Dad) and HENRY (named for his maternal grandfather, Quaker HENRY POPE of Isle of Wight & Nansemond counties.)

I'm so bummed by this! It was a literary masterpiece! ====blushes modestly==== I can't believe the computer ate it! After writing, I was scrolling backward proofreading. It wouldn't scroll down farther than the first couple of paragraphs you got. I went online and sent it, and that's all it sent. Couldn't find the rest anywhere....So sorry.....when I get over this loss of several hours work, I'll write again.

I have recently discovered your site and am thrilled that there are others out there tracing the same line(s). I am an experienced genealogist (been at it over 30 years) I don't accept anyone else's research without checking it out--no offense, just that I have made enough mistakes of my own without adding someone elses' to mine. Group research is the best I think, because a group is critical of the research not the researcher. Helps us find our errors and gives us new insight into a problem. Great way to do things and I will be glad to share references with any and all. I was intrigued when I was reading the guest book and came across the reference to another Bracewell/Scarborough marriage and wondered if possibly that my Richard had a brother that married a sister or cousin of my Charity? You all have a wonderful group, I have been reading your "mail" on the archive and you all sound like great and nice people. Tell you a little about myself. I am Joyce Hetrick, husband is Morgan (that's his email I use) and he (semi-retired engineer/test pilot) and me, still working Registered Nurse Practitioner (cuts into my research time!) live out in the boonies of Arkansas (snail mail: 288 Heifer Creek Rd. Springfield, AR 72157 phone 501-354-5025). We raise a few Scots Highland cattle and I do as much genealogy as you can do when you work 24/7 at one "job" or another! Spend all my "disposable" income on sending off to archives for copies of various records. My best friend is a professional genealogist named Desmond Walls Allen. SHE writes/compiles index books and publishes them, lectures and writes a newspaper article weekly for our statewide newspaper on genealogy and keeps me in ideas when I am "up the family tree and can't get down." See her web page at Arkansas Research. Keep up the good work and hope I can be of assistance to the group and vice versa! E U later! Joyce Hetrick From ???@???

Thanks for the encouraging words about my faux pas...I did grieve for my "lost baby" of a Braswell literary masterpiece! LOL.....to continue: 1769. By this year, RICHARD & OBEDIENCE BRASWELL, along with their intact congregation of Baptists, had left Orange County and resettled as a group in the Little River area of Anson Co., N.C. Revolutionary War period. These Baptists, with strong Quaker affinities, were anti-war Pacifists, yet Patriots. The Braswells & some other Baptists moved to Wilkes County in northwest NC to escape the fighting on the East Coast. Some even went over into the Wautauga Settlement area of Tennessee to get away (such as my ancestor, RICHARD "BRAZIL" (1759-1842), one of your VALENTINE's older brothers who was of "draft" age. Several of RICHARD & OBEDIENCE's kids came of age then and married in either Anson or Wilkes, including perhaps your VAL. 1786-1795. Your VAL, with parents and most of their original family, moved down the Piedmont to Greenville District, South Carolina. On the 1790 Census, VAL is shown with wife and a little daughter. 1795. VAL helps pioneer across the Blue Ridge in Knox Co., Tennessee. His leadership abilities begin to show: he is appointed Ensign in the Knox Co. Militia. In 1800, his Dad, RICHARD (c.1723-1800) dies at the family settlement near Clinton, on Clinch River (Anderson Co.), about the same time that your RICHARD is born to VAL and 1st (?) wife. With Dad gone and the whole Mississippi Valley wide open for settlement, the brothers begin to go their separate ways.... 1805. By this year, VAL & his brother ROBERT (c.1771-1825) have pioneered the Goshen Settlement area of Madison County, Illinois Territory. Another brother, WILLIAM (c.1766-185_) joins them later. Still another brother, my RICHARD (1759-1842) settles in Johnson County at southern tip of state. 1806. VAL's daughter POLLY (Mary Ann) marries French fur trapper, ANDRE ST. JEAN in Madison County. VALENTINE buys out his son-in-law, including most of his livestock. 1811. VAL is appointed Lieutenant in the Madison Co. Militia; promoted to Captain the following year. 1819. VAL's oldest son, your RICHARD, marries LAYODISIA ENYEART in Madison County. 1821. By this year, VAL & family had moved from eastern Madison County and followed the Kaskaskia Valley on up to Fayette County, where he and now of-age son RICHARD are listed as Voters. VAL shows his usual taste for power by running for Fayette County commissioner in 1824 and 1826. 1827. Ever restless, VAL heads north and pioneers Fulton County with his brother WILLIAM and nephew MOSES (my g-g-gf). On the l830 Census, VAL (who fibbed about his age) is shown with his "final" wife, NANCY JOURNEY BRASWELL (whom he had married in Madison County--then part of St. Clair--by 1816. His wife in her 40's, they had 4 kids--3 girls & 1 boy, ages 5-15. 1830. MOSES does a 180 and heads south down the Mississippi to join his gang pioneering Saline Co., Ark. Uncle WILLIAM follows suit and pioneers Carroll County, Arkansas. Your VAL, the last to leave Fulton Co. (1837), heads north to JoDaviess County where he died at his home on Rush Creek, aged 83, on November 27, 1848. His estate was small,but interesting. The bulk of his descendants in Illinois, of course, were left behind in Fayette County, whose history is already known to you. With you, I regret the poor material condition of VAL's generation, not only for their sake but ours: people with little property leave few records and move often--making our job that much tougher, right? But keep in mind these guys were the product of a Quaker mother and grandmother. They were anti-war, anti-slavery, and anti-materialism. That's what took them from the Plantation South to the Upper South (yeoman farmers country, not plantation country) These Quaker influences didn't last too long: by the Antebellum Period, the next generation was busy accumulating slaves, wealth, and political power in Arkansas and elsewhere (e.g. the County Judge of today's Camden, Arkansas, is a Braswell)....but the influence of the Society of Friends kept us apart from the main body of Braswell descendants along the coastal plain of the Plantation South. For example, my g-grandfather, JESSE BRAZIL (1827-1888) refused to own slaves, although he did permit his wives(daughters of two of the wealthiest families of Saline Co., Ark.)to have their maid servants. One of these, "Rose", came with my family to Texas after the Civil War and was my grandmother's midwife who delivered my father, Rev. ETHERIDGE BRAZIL, in 1896. CAREY From ???@???

By this year, VAL & his brother ROBERT (c.1771-1825) have pioneered the Goshen Settlement area of Madison County, Illinois Territory. Another brother, WILLIAM (c.1766-185_) joins them later. Still another brother, my RICHARD (1759-1842) settles in Johnson County at southern tip of state. 1806. VAL's daughter POLLY (Mary Ann) marries French fur trapper, ANDRE ST. JEAN in Madison County. VALENTINE buys out his son-in-law, including most of his livestock. 1811. VAL is appointed Lieutenant in the Madison Co. Militia; promoted to Captain the following year. 1819. VAL's oldest son, your RICHARD, marries LAYODISIA ENYEART in Madison County. 1821. By this year, VAL & family had moved from eastern Madison County and followed the Kaskaskia Valley on up to Fayette County, where he and now of-age son RICHARD are listed as Voters. VAL shows his usual taste for power by running for Fayette County commissioner in 1824 and 1826. 1827. Ever restless, VAL heads north and pioneers Fulton County with his brother WILLIAM and nephew MOSES (my g-g-gf). On the l830 Census, VAL (who fibbed about his age) is shown with his "final" wife, NANCY JOURNEY BRASWELL (whom he had married in Madison County--then part of St. Clair--by 1816. His wife in her 40's, they had 4 kids--3 girls & 1 boy, ages 5-15. 1830. MOSES does a 180 and heads south down the Mississippi to join his gang pioneering Saline Co., Ark. Uncle WILLIAM follows suit and pioneers Carroll County, Arkansas. Your VAL, the last to leave Fulton Co. (1837), heads north to JoDaviess County where he died at his home on Rush Creek, aged 83, on November 27, 1848. His estate was small,but interesting. The bulk of his descendants in Illinois, of course, were left behind in Fayette County, whose history is already known to you. With you, I regret the poor material condition of VAL's generation, not only for their sake but ours: people with little property leave few records and move often--making our job that much tougher, right? But keep in mind these guys were the product of a Quaker mother and grandmother. They were anti-war, anti-slavery, and anti-materialism. That's what took them from the Plantation South to the Upper South (yeoman farmers country, not plantation country) These Quaker influences didn't last too long: by the Antebellum Period, the next generation was busy accumulating slaves, wealth, and political power in Arkansas and elsewhere (e.g. the County Judge of today's Camden, Arkansas, is a Braswell)....but the influence of the Society of Friends kept us apart from the main body of Braswell descendants along the coastal plain of the Plantation South. For example, my g-grandfather, JESSE BRAZIL (1827-1888) refused to own slaves, although he did permit his wives(daughters of two of the wealthiest families of Saline Co., Ark.)to have their maid servants. One of these, "Rose", came with my family to Texas after the Civil War and was my grandmother's midwife who delivered my father, Rev. ETHERIDGE BRAZIL, in 1896. CAREY From ???@???

I found my 1770 Collet (map of North Carolina), plus copies of the original Surry grants. It seems we have neglected one JOHN BRASWELL as a good candidate to sire your BV: he received grants of 800 acres, all on Beaverdam Creek, the first "including his improvements" surveyed May 14, 1779 (Wm & Robt HEAD, chainbearers) and another tract of 400 acres adjacent AMBROSE HAMMON "in Surry on Bear Shole Creek Beaver Dam" surveyed June 10, 1797, JOSHUA SPEER & JOSHUA BROWN, chainbearers. Citations to follow, but they are as real as you and me! Collet let me see that our Braswells were in alignment with their escape route up the Yadkin during those dangerous war years.....FREDERICK and a JOHN BRASWELL, "Jr" (the Younger?) in Wilkes, this JOHN and TABITHA further north on another branch of the Yadkin, in Surry Fishers River is on the Collet. It all aligns with the Wautaga "safety corridor" in Tennessee. How these all interrelate to be determined, but all seem scions of RICHARD & OBEDIENCE. CAREY From ???@???
