Hi My name is James Simmons Stancil I am the grandson of Millard &
Cecil(FARRELL)STANCIL. This is part of the info I have been abel to
gather up. Some of you will recognize your research(thank you
temendeously) but some info here is from up to 9 years ago.
and I got to your group to research the RABUN GAP, GA Stancils
particularly My Grandfather Millard Stancil who was listed with his
father, mother and brothers and sisters.  My dad(Robert Allen
STANCIL, sr) verified this by recognising the names. this is where I
am starting from.
  My Grandmother was Cecil FARRELL from Rolla or Cape Girardeau, MO.
  On my mothers Side Her Father was Henson "Dixie" TROVILLION from
Massac County Il we have a lot of info because someone put together a
very well researched book  back in the 70s where we go back to
England with 3 different spelling of the name.
  My grandmother here is Lucia SIMMONS, also from Metropolis, Il
but lived in Morehouse, MO her father was James SIMMONS and was
married to Mom SIMMONS(Will post her name Later)

James Stancil
Jstancil@...
stanmagicman@...


   I have found a Sarah E. Stancil, William Stancil, Martha A.
Stancil, along with Major Washington Stancil, Mary L., Susan M, Susie
Bell, Birdie Viola, David N. and James H., all children of Eli
Nimmons Stancil. They were born in Rabun County, Georgia

   Amanda was married to Eli Nimmons Stancil. I am researching the
Stancil side of the family. Eli and Amanda had 8 children, the last
one born in April 1880. He then remarried and had other children
after 1885 with Jenny Sara Husky, so I assume that Amanda died
between 1880 and 1885.
I would love any other information you have on the Stancil side. I
could also provide you with more on the Stancil's if you need it.

  Eli Stancil of Pickens County, S.C
   I have an Eli Stancil who died in Pickins, SC in 1866. He was
married to Sarah, and they had 9 children: Eli, James, Elizabeth,
Alfred, Rebecca, John, Willir, Lucinda, and Warren. Is this any help?
I think Eli's father was Levi, but not sure on this yet.

   Eli Stancil (married to Sarah) had a son named Eli Nimmons Stancil
(married to Amanda Gwinn). Both Eli's were born in South Carolina. I
don't have much else on either of these two, but do have a lot of
information on James H. Stancil, who is the son of Eli Nimmons
Stancil.

   My grandfather was Levis Stancil 1921 Georgia. He was from Rabun
Gap, GA. His parents were James Otto Stancil and Marie Elizabeth
Love. I have just started on tracing my grandfather's side of the
family. I beleive James Otto Stancil's mother was Blackfoot Indian
(or that is what is told to me my family members). Any connection -
please email me. Thanks
   I was told growing up that there were 3 brothers that came to
America. Hence, the spelling Stancil 3 ways (-cel, -sel). I have just
begun researching my grandfather's lineage (b.1921 d.1978). He was
from Rabun Gap, GA. His father was James Otto Stancil and his mother
was Martha Elizabeth Love Stancil. Good luck in your search
    Thank you so much - this will give me a lot to research. Last
night I had gotten from my grandma (Alma Stancil) that brothers and
sisters of Levis Stancil. They are William, Jessie, Ronald, Gladys,
Carolyn, Florence, Fannie, Yvonne, and Estellee. She also told me
James Otto Stancil had 2 brothers she knew of - Carl (which shows as
1 y.o. on your email) and John (?). I was told James Otto's mom was
Blackfoot (Sarah?) and using that term instead of Blackfeet suggest
Canadian. Still working on that one. Thanks again!

17h2n@


    Levis, I can add some information, as I am the grandaughter of
Sallie(Otto's sister). James Otto Stancil's parents were James
Hamilton Stancil and Sarah Jane Taylor. Sarah's parents were
Sidney "Dudley" Taylor (CSA) and Mahulda Caroline "Huldy" York. I
have pictures and more info if you are still interested.

trustyjune@

   Levis, your grandfather Levis is the brother of my husband's
father. You listed the brothers and sisters (William, Jessie, Ronald,
Gladys, etc.) but you left off Joseph, who was my husband's father.
Florence and Yvonne are still living, but Ronnie died last year. It
looks like you and I are looking for the same family, so if you'd
like to e-mail me, we can share information.
   And James Otto had 3 brothers, Carl, Warner and Millard, plus a lot
of sisters. I would like to talk to you about your family, since I
assume your mom (daughter of Levis) would be my husband's cousin.

   I have no close connection to your Stancils. Mine are all of the NC
branch of the family.
1-Your grandfather Levis was listed with his parents James and Martha
Stancil in the 1930 census in Spartanburg County, SC.
2- Levis's father James Otto Stancil was born circa 1892-1894
3- James Otto Stancil was listed with his parents on the 1910 census
in Tennessee Valley, Rabun County Georgia:
Stancil, James 41 y.o. born SC
Sarah 42 y.o. born SC
Lula 23 y.o. born SC
Bertha 18 y.o. born SC Millard's sister, may have died about 28 y.o.
Otto 16 y.o. born GA
Margaret 14 y.o. born GA
Sis 12 y.o. born GA
Sallie 11 y.o. born GA
Warner/Warren 7 y.o. born GA
Millard 4 y.o. born GA
Carl 1 y.o. born GA
4-James Otto's father James H (Henry?) Stancil was listed on the 1880
census Rabun County, GA census in Tennessee Valley in the household
of his parents:
Stancil, Eli N. 32 y.o. born SC
Amanda 35 y.o. born SC (maiden name Guinn/Gwinn?)
James H. 14 y.o. born SC
Martha A. 13 y.o. born SC
Mary L. 11 y.o. born SC
Sleeter ? 8 y.o. born SC
Sarah E. 5 y.o. born GA
Susan 4 y.o. born GA
William 1 y.o. born GA
5-Eli N. Stancil was listed in the 1850 census in Pickens County, SC
with his parents:
Stancil, Eli 49 y.o. born SC
Sarah 42 y.o.
James M. 24 y.o.
Elizabeth 23 y.o.
Alfred 19 y.o.
Rebecca (?) 18 y.o.
John H. 18 y.o.
Willis A. 15 y.o.
Lucinda 13 y.o.
Warren H. 9 y.o.
Eli N. 3 y.o.
Eli said to have died in Pickens,SC in 1866 but I have no source for
that date.

So your line would be:
Levis
James Otto and Martha
James H. ( born circa 1866 ) and Sarah
Eli N. ( born circa 1847 )and Amanda
Eli ( born circa 1801 )and Sarah

Beyond this I can't really help. The claim has been made ( and I
don't know the source ) that Eli born circa 1801 was the son of a
Levi Stancil born 1770's.
IF (and I say IF ) Eli was a son of Levi, that would suggest to me
the Levi Stancil found on the Greenville County, SC census in 1800 ,
1810 ( maybe later).
I doubt there is enough evidence to substantiate the paternity of
that Levi Stancil born 1770's and found in Greenville County, SC in
the early 1800's.
My best guess would be that Levi of the 1800 Greenville census was
most likely a son of the Samuel Stancil also found one page away in
Greenville in 1800.
I can not prove it, but I truly believe that Samuel Stancil of the
1800 Greenville County, SC census was most likely the very same
Samuel Stancil who was listed on the NC census of 1784-1787 in Wilkes
County, NC. ( there seems to have been quite a bit of migration from
Wilkes County, NC to Greenville County, SC about the 1790-1800 time
period)
Samuel Stancil who was in Wilkes County, NC during the 1780's had
gone there from Wake County, NC where he had a couple land grants and
deeds between 1779-1780's.
Samuel Stancil had gone to Wake County about 1779 from Cumberland
County, NC. Prior to Cumberland County he had been in Pitt County, NC
I believe.
To make a long story short I think Samuel Stancil was the orphan
Samuel Stancil named in court records during the 1730's (Bertie
and/or Tyrrell County, NC) - listed as an orphan of Peter Stancil
dec'd.
Peter Stancil who died during the 1730's was a carpenter, his wife's
name was Sarah (maiden name unknown). After Peter Stancil's death the
widow Sarah Stancil married a man named Richard Sparkman. ( I believe
Levi was a commonly used name in the Sparkman family)
I don't think there is any explicit evidence, but there is absolutely
no doubt in my mind that Peter Stancil dec'd 1730's was a son of John
Stancil and wife Katherine (maiden name unknown, commonly said to
be "Hardy" but there is not one shred of evidence)
This John Stancil , husband of Katherine, was the immigrant ancestor
of our family. He was born in England about 1662 and came to VA as an
indentured servant in 1683. He was listed on the Nansemond County, VA
tax list in 1704 shortly after which he moved just a little south to
the Chowan County area of NC where he was mentioned several times in
the colonial NC court records between 1709 and 1713.
John Stancil died in Chowan, NC in late 1712/early 1713.
The section of Chowan where John died later became Bertie County and
it is in Bertie County where John's sons are found in the records not
long after his death.
Best of luck,
Tracy Stancil

I am the grandaughter of Dr. James A. Battle (1887-1953) who practiced
in Greenville, NC until his death.  I have been told that there is some
sort of plaque? or such dedicated to him at Memorial Hospital in
Greenville and I wish to verify that information.

Can anyone assist with this endeavor?

Dear Mae,
    I am sure that many of our members who are frequent
visitors or even employees of Pitt Memorial Hospital
can check for you at the hospital. You could also
simply call "Information" and ask for Pitt Memorial
Hospital in Greenville, North Carolina and ask to
speak to the Medical Director.
    Even if he did not personally know your
grandfather, he would very likely know something about
the history of the hospital and distinguished
physicians who practiced there.
    It is also possible that this hospital, like some
here in Richmond, publish yearbooks with pictures and
brief biographies of their staff. To locate something
like this would be a real treasure for a family member
because it would provide an opportunity to connect in
a very special way with a relative he never got to
know.
     I myself was born at home on County Home Road. My
baby sister was the only one of us born at Pitt
Memorial. Mama and our Uncle Mark moved us to
Richmond, Virginia in 1953. Being so young, I am sorry
to say that I never got to meet your grandfather, but
he must have been a very special person indeed.
     Good luck to you in learning more about your
kinsman. I am glad, though, that you have already some
personal information about him.
     I am sure that other members of our group will be
responding to you with specifics about your
grandfather. I hope that you learn even more about him
than you ever thought possible.
     Later, Carol

Edgecombe County is compiling an Edgecombe County Heritage Book.

Many of the early families living on the Edgecombe/Pitt County border line are
recorded sometimes in Pitt County and sometimes in Edgecombe County.

I know that many of you are excellent writers, and if you have an ancestor that
resided in Edgecombe County before 1855, then you may write a 1000 word article
that will  be included in the Edgecombe County Heritage Book free of charge. A
pioneer family article may also include two photos free of charge.

The deadline for submitting articles is October 15, 2008, so please plan to
include your family in Edgecombe County's rich history.

If you need more details, perhaps I can answer them until the brochure is
available for download.

Please make plans to include your eligible families in the Edgecombe County
Heritage Book.

Thanks.  I just wish there was somewhere that it difinitively showed that Kinion
(all spellings) was the son of Nehemiah.  I have lots of conjecture and
circumstantial evidence that points that way, but nothing in stone.

A Methodist minister and Justice of the Peace
________________________________

Indictment of Aquila Sugg for saying to Stephen Brooks that he was told Fourteen
thousand of the English were at Cross Creek and that the enemy were to go
through the State, and winter in Virginia, whereas in fact he had not heard the
same, but invented the story to weaken and discourage the defense of the state.
Later he said to Stephen Brooks that men were to be stationed by the English in
every county in this state, and that proper judges would be appointed to try and
hang every leading man in the state. Sugg said this to discourage Brooks from
going out in defense of his country.

   Pardon my ignorance, I haven't worked with property records. Can you clarify

   On the first record, did Nehemiah Downs get the 100 acres of land from William
Downs?
   Or the other way around, Nehemiah give the land to William?

Judy,
This was a nice find.
Pardon my ignorance, I haven't worked with property records. Can you clarify
this?
On the first record, did Nehemiah Downs get the 100 acres of land from William
Downs?
Or the other way around, Nehemiah give the land to William?

Aquilla Suggs (my ancestral grandfather) is a proven Am Rev patriot. I also kow
he left Edgecombe Co for Tenn. under not-so-good terms. I think I remember he
was badly in debt.
Check with Betty Reason.

   Does anyone know the result of the Acquilla Sugg indictment listed below? I
know that he moved to and died in Davidson County, Tennessee?

Fourteen thousand of the English were at Cross Creek and that the enemy were to
go through the State, and winter in Virginia, whereas in fact he had not heard
the same, but invented the story to weaken and discourage the defense of the
state. Later he said to Stephen Brooks that men were to be stationed by the
English in every county in this state, and that proper judges would be appointed
to try and hang every leading man in the state. Sugg said this to discourage
Brooks from going out in defense of his country.

Dear Faye,
   I have eight men named Aquilla Sugg; two possibles:
   1) Aquilla Sugg - death year 1789 in Tennessee??
   Father: George (Augustus) Sugg
   Mother: Sarah Elizabeth Ives
   Married to three wives: Elizabeth Battles, Abigail Carroll Bonner, Elizabeth
Maund
   2) Aquilla Sugg - birth date 31 Aug 1768 Virginia
   Father: John Sugg
   Mother: Elizabeth Murphrey
   Married to two wives: Mary ? and Nancy Hill

   Is this how you see it? Because I may have mixed these two up early on....
   The latter would be under 12, but the former could be over 70 years of age.

   I do not know if I am related to any of these yet. My family includes a Suggs.
   Marcia

Here is an email I received from Jack Hall concerning burials at Dorothea
Dix Hospital Cemetery in Raleigh, NC.

Jack wronte:
I found these deaths listed in the Wake County, NC. cemeteries while
doing some research. They are persons buried in the Dorothea Dix Hospital
cemetery in Raleigh, NC. I thought you might want to give to someone to list
on the Pitt County website. Maybe it would help someone looking for their
kin burials.

Dear Bill,
    What an incredible service you are doing for all of
us in making information like this available to us.
This Braxton family is my father's line and contains
some spelling errors.
    For example, my grandmother's name was Dosie Dail
Braxton. She was the daughter of Matthew D. Dail and
Eleanor Frances Crawford. Her uncle was Theophilus
Dail, and in one census she was actually listed in his
household as his niece. His wife's maiden name was
Vandiford.
    Another problem crops us with brothers and sisters
naming children for one another and for their
grandparents. Thus we have Elias in my direct line and
in my collateral lines. The same goes for James and
John and Elbert in the Braxton line down to the
present generation and with the girl's name "Hannah."
    For example, in Chronicles II more than one of us
mistook James Braxton, the brother of Warren and Felix
Braxton, for James Elias Braxton the son of James
Braxton and Martha Crawford. Another reason for the
confusion was that this man had children named Elias
and Elbert, my father's name. The marriage certificate
that I found in the courthouse in Greenville after the
publication of Chronicles II gave the parents of my
James Elias Braxton, who married Sarah Sutton, as
James Braxton and Martha Crawford. That's how I
learned that Augustus Braxton and Gatsey Ann Tripp
were my great uncle and aunt, rather than my
grandparents.
    From the names that James Elias and Martha gave
their children and from the proximity of their
household to that of John Braxton and Sarah year after
year, I believe that John Braxton and Sarah were the
parents of James Elias Braxton and that his
grandparents were John Braxton and Hannah since James
Elias also had siblings John and Hannah.
    In some of the Death Records also, my grandfather's
name was misspelled. The correct name is Elijah
Braxton.
    His brother was not only my great uncle but my
step-grandfather. After the death of my grandfather in
an auto accident in 1936, Elias Braxton (widower)
married my widowed grandmother.
    We never knew him as Elias. He was always called
"Goode" or "Goude." We children were taught to call
him "Uncle Goode." Not until after his death did I
know that he was named Elias and that he was my
stepgrandfather.
    I don't know how all of you who never knew a
grandfather feel about this circumstance, but, as for
me, I felt terribly isolated and cut-off when
classmates and friends talked about their grandfathers
because so far as I knew I had none.
    Uncle Goode was absolutely spun gold as far as I
was concerned. What a truly good, kind, and loving man
he was all the days of his life that I knew him.
Nothing could have pleased me more than to have been
able to call him "granddaddy." I didn't, simply
because nobody ever told me. Thanks to this group I
discovered it for myself.
    Celebrations like the Worthington Family Reunion
coming up this week on June 28th and the Pitt County
Family Researchers Reunion give displaced persons like
me their families back to them. No greater service can
anyone do a kinsman than this.
    My own loss and the wonderful example members of
this group and our extended Pitt County families have
set in reuniting families make helping others
reconnect with theirs a top priority for me.
    Special thanks to you, Bill, for your many
kindnesses to all of us and for your generosity in
sharing your knowledge with us.
    Sincerely, Carol
