Notes for ISAAC ODELL: Isaac, it is thought went to the Tennessee settlement about 1806-7. Since Virginia areas changed during the early years, one did not have to necessarily move to be listed in Virginia, North Carolina or Tennessee; RootsWeb.com Isearch-cgi 1.20.06 (File: 1790ran4.txt) RANDOLPH COUNTY, NC - CENSUS - 1790 Randolph County Census State North Carolina County Randolph District Hillsborough 426 Odle Isaac 1 1 (1 male, 1 female) http://genforum.genealogy.com/odell/messages/1748.html In Ruth Webb Odell's bk "Over the Misty Hills, the Story of Cocke Co TN" is this: pg 122 - JEREMIAH Odell, son of Samuel, fought in the War of 1812 and was wounded on 9 Nov 1813. He moved to Saline Co, MO and gave 15 acres of land on which to found the county seat, Marshall. With him, Bartholomew Guin went from Cocke Co To MO. His wife was Elizabeth Guggey. (Note, I am not sure if Mrs Odell meant she was the wife of Jeremiah or Bartholomew. Another quote: "pg 122...The three O'Dell families that ventured into the territory before it was known as Cocke Co TN were Samuel (who married Elizabeth Job), Isaac (married Abigail Mansfield) and later moved to Ray Co MO, and Benjamin (who married Mary McKay). *Note added by author of this update; Samuel & Issac were brothers and sons of James. Benjamin was their 1st cousin and son of Benjamine. Benjamine and James were sons of Samuel of Rye, New York who migrated to Shenandoah Valley, VA\\ pg 120: "The southern O'dells are related to Samuel, Isaac, and Stephen O'Dell, sons of William O'dell 2nd and Sarah Vowels of Rye, Westchester Co, New York. In 1730, the 3rd generation became attracted to the Shenandoah Valley of VA by land grants. I strongly suggest that if you are researching the early TN Odell/Odle families that you read Mrs. Odell's book. She begins the family with Isaac bc 1749 born in New York, thence to the Shenandoah Valley of VA, then to what is now Greene Co TN and thus to Cocke Co TN. It is a difficult book to follow but more TN Odell data than you will find any place else. Regards, Bettye bettyjps@netzero.net http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec?htx=message&r=an&p=surnames.odell&m=787 I know this family is fairly well documented from Isaac forward, but I have noticed that there is some confusion as to Isaac's wife, Abigail. I believe Abigail was a MAXWELL and future generations add support to this with the name of Solomon and the name of Maxwell coming forth in descendant's names. In 1770 Frederick Co. VA, SOLOMON MAXWELL died, leaving probate papers on file in that county naming his heirs. One of his daughters was MRS. ISAAC ODLE. The land Solomon lived on, however, LATER became first a part of Dunmore Co. VA, then Shenandoah Co. VA. Deeds in Shenandoah Co. VA show that Isaac's wife was ABIGAIL. Isaac and his family, along with the siblings of Abigail and their families, were among the earliest settlers of Tennessee prior to statehood. Family members settled in Washington Co., but may also be found in early Carter Co. TN records and possibly Sullivan Co. TN records. Isaac's family ended up becoming some of the first settlers of Ray Co. MO, where many members remained many years. I am not an Odell/Odle descendant, but I am trying to prove that my gggggrandfather, Thomas Maxwell, was a brother to Abigail Maxwell Odell/Odle. Karylon A.

Notes for JAMES ODELL: According to Fern Odle Wagner's research - James migrated to Tennessee. (Update) Research note: believe James continued from TN to OH to IN; http://freepages.genealogy.rootsweb.com/~acorntree/people/del-co/records/vitalstats/crackerbrl3-jefftnmarr.html Cracker Barrel Crumbs Selected Early - Jefferson County, Tennessee Marriages "Why are these selected?" you might ask. Well, it's because many Delaware County settlers migrated from Greene and Jefferson Counties, Tennessee. These Jefferson County marriages are included because they are common surnames found in Delaware County, Indiana (and surrounding counties).
