Notes for John Francis:

General Notes:

According to Probate information recorded in Lunenburg County, Virginia, John Francis died in 1753. The Administrator of the John Francis estate was Micajah Francis. The information does not state that Micajah was a son of John Francis, but it is very likely that there was at least some family connection. Later Lunenburg Court Minutes definitely name Nathaniel Francis and Lucius Francis as "orphans of John Francis" (in 1753 Lunenburg made up the geographical area that is now Lunenburg, Charlotte, and Mecklenburg Counties in Virginia).

Micajah Francis died in 1775 in Halifax County, Virginia (formed from Luneburg in 1752). Halifax County, at that time, made up the area of Virginia that is now Patrick, Henry, Pittsylvania, and Halifax Counties, and a portion of Franklin County. Micajah Francis had at least three sons, according to Probate information. The names of his sons were John Francis, Vincent Francis, and Malachi Francis.

John Francis died in 1797. One son of John Francis was John Francis who married Elizabeth Scates 15 February, 1787. According to Probate information, John Francis died in Stokes County, North Carolina in 1832.

John and Elizabeth Francis had at least one son. His name was Micajah Francis. He was born 9 January, 1790 in Halifax County, Virginia. He married Elizabeth Fitzgerald 23 January, 1816 in Patrick County, Virginia, which was formed from the area carved from Halifax County in 1766. Micajah Francis died in Allen County, Kentucky in 1871. Micajah and Elizabeth Francis had at least one daughter. Her name was Stacy Francis. She was born in Stokes County, North Carolina 25 August, 1827. She married John Shaw 2 October, 1849 in Allen County, Kentucky. She died in 1883 in Monroe County, Kentucky.

There was a rather substantial Francis family in Halifax County, Virginia in the mid to latter years of the eighteenth century.

Time Line: in 1700, the approximate date of John Francis' birth, the colonial population was about 275,000. Boston was the largest city with 7000 inhabitants. In June of 1700, Massachusetts passed a law ordering all Roman Catholic priests to leave the colony within three months, upon penalty of life imprisonment or execution. New York then passed a similar law.

DR. J. H. FRANCIS was born May 13, 1832, in Stokes County, N. C., and is

the fifth of three sons and five daughters (seven of whom lived to be

grown) born of Micajah and Mary (Fitzgerald) FRANCIS, who was born in

. Dr. FRANCIS was reared on a farm and resided with his parents

until married, when his parents lived with him until their death. In

October, 1861, he enlisted in Company I, Ninth Kentucky Federal; was

mostly on duty in hospital as an orderly; was discharged in

March, 1865, when he returned home and engaged in farming for a time.

While in hospital he conceived the idea of studying medicine. In 1871

began the study with Dr. Crabtree, of LaFayette, Tenn.; graduated from

Cincinnati Eclectic School of Medicine in 1874; first located in La

Fayette, Tenn. In 1876 he located where he now resides, in the

southeastern part of Allen County, on 300 acres of land, which he farms.

He has succeeded in establishing a good lucrative practice. He married,
