Hanover books and deeds

Judith Russell and Frances Bateman, Edgefield SC -

July, 2002

1. "Holloway Ancestors." Ancestors of George Holloway. This is the booklet with the Martha Botts reference. Shirley's Noble Bible has the daughter of Thomas Holloway and Lucretia Walker as Martha BOTTS Holloway.

2. Mays cemetery Records from the ABCDs of Edgefield Genealogy

3. Title page and introductory info from "Colonial Cousins" huge 1940 book about the Holloways of York County, VA

4. Will and Estate of Wm. B. Mays. (Edgefield SC will box 55, packet 2292) Has most of the children listed. No help with the Sarah/Annie Walker name problem. He apparently was married for the second time. But, according to something I read, all the children are from the Walker marriage.

5. Several pages of Mitchell info...a quick review doesn't show how Hinchey or Starling connect.

6. Mays pages from "Edgefield Marriage Records." M. of William B. Mays to Frances Wagner, 30 sep 1841 (first wife ann is listed as dying feb 1841)

7. deed of Joseph Newton to James Eddins. Benjamin Eddins signed with his mark.

8. Deed of Israel Gauntt to richard Marchant. Looks like the real Israel Gauntt signature.

9. Family sheet which ends with Thomas Mitchell, father of J. Hinchey Mitchell. (Don't think this is our HInchey, though)

10. Several pages on Simeon Mitchell and family, wife Keziah.

11. Looked at Gilgal Baptists Church Records..(Beams are said to have been here)..this books starts too late for us.

12. Frances got the deed books 16,17,18 and 23, 24, 25, 26. She is going to review for our names.

13. Looked at Beams family folder...nothing there for us.

14. Didn't review Cunningham folder...we should look for source of the "James Cunningham m. Sarah Walker"

15. Looked at a Marbert and Mitchell family printout...didn't see a connection.

16. Huge book with Walker, Scruggs, Nobles...we copied the Walker refs, but not the Scruggs and Nobles (Do we need to review again??)

17. A list of Mitchell probate records

18 transcription of the will of Wm B. Mays
19 some loose Holloway pages
