  Hillary Phelps, and his wife, of Jasper Co., Marcus Flournoy, and his wife, of Jefferson Co., Tabitha Bealle, of Richmond Co., and William Fuller, Exr., estate of Clementius Davis, dec’d., to Benjamin A. Warren, Exr., of Walker Leigh, said heirs, for $3000., sell to Benjamin Warren, 200 acres in Columbia Co., where Davis, dec’d., lived at the time of his death, formerly the property of Thomas Davis, dec’d.
  ¹
• Death*: November 1820; Columbia Co., Georgia
• Research Note*: 1 November 2004; That this Clementius was the son of Thomas Davis is based on the fact that his estate included land "formerly belonging to Thomas Davis." Further research in Columbia Co. GA deeds is needed to confirm this assumption. Columbia Co. was created in 1790 from Richmond Co., so Richmond deeds and estates need to be checked as well. Also, the Augusta Chronicle online should be checked.

  Lew............I was looking at some old notes on this will because of a query from a guy who has Beall/Harvey/Byne connections and google turned up your tree shown below..............did I leave you with the impression that Clementius had three daughters.........Nancy, Susannah, and Tabitha???.............if so, not what I was thinking or saying...........I have always thought that Nancy was Ann Harvey who married Hillary Phillips in Edgefield (or thereabouts) and I have NEVER ID'd Susannah or Tabitha. If you came to this conclusion on your own..........please explain it to me.............it's one of my BIG MYSTERIES and I am not even related to any of these people!!!!

  ....I haven't looked at it in years either...........it came up this last weekend when someone who was asking about Sims & Byne mentioned a Beall connection............and, yes, I am saying that they are not his daughters.............I don't even think he was married. I have been looking and googling and have come up with bits and pieces which I will try to get into some kind of order and send to you.
  
  This somehow starts with Ruth Bealle, daughter of Thomas Bealle and Tabitha Hilleary...........she married Michael Jones, John Phillips and Thomas Davis.
  
  Thomas Davis was the son of Clementius Davis and Mary Lamar.
  
  I do not have a copy of the complete will of the younger Clementius but I think I can get one at the library here............I plan to go Saturday.
  
  We know that Hilleary Phillipsmust beRuth's son and is married to William Harvey's daughter Ann (Nancy.)
  
  SusannahFlournoy is Susannah Bostick, 1st married to a Connelley...........said to be the daughter of Littleberry Bostick and Rebecka Beall(e)..........(this is supposed to be the Littleberry who d. 1823, Jefferson Ga.
  
  Tabitha Bealle could be unmarried or a widow...........haven't found anything on her, yet.
  
  The whole thing makes for an interesting puzzle!!!!

• Last Edited: 2 May 2018

• Birth*: say 1810; Pennsylvania¹
• Marriage*: 9 September 1832; Troup Co., Georgia; Principal=Elizabeth J. Halsey
• 1840 Census*: 1 June 1840; Chambers Co., Alabama; Henry was two doors away from Benjamin L. Halsey, his wife's father.²
• 1860 Census*: 1 June 1860; Poinsett Co., Arkansas³
• Death*: circa 1863; Poinsett Co., Arkansas
• Research Note*: 16 December 2004; From Susan Murray:
  
  Henry Trexler has a connection to old Hans Waggoner through Jacob Waggoner. Henry was apprenticed to Jacob as a blacksmith in 1816 in old Rowan County NC. I believe Jacob was a son of George Waggoner who died in York Co, SC but there were several Jacob Waggoners and I'm having a hard time sorting them out. George Waggoner was the son of Hans Jacob Waggoner of Chester Co. I found Henry in York Co SC in 1830 census on page 341. He is listed as Henry Truxiler, but he is living as a single man 20 to 30 years old, so I can't even be sure it is him. A George Waggoner had died in 1818 in York Co. This George mentioned Margaret Halsey in his will.
  
  I am having a very hard time finding Henry's parents as they were all either John or John Peter back then. I have 2 Johns and 2 Peters and no wills. I think they came to NC speaking German even though they were born and raised in Pennsylvania. The old wills were filed in the Philadelphia Co courthouse in German, all the church records are in German. I believe they didn't want to dictate wills to English speakers because they couldn't read English. They generally left deeds selling the property for $1.00 plus love and consideration to a favorite son. Henry didn't get any property. Henry grew up in NC and could read and write proper English. There was a Benjamin Wagonner in Troup Co GA in 1830. Henry may have followed the Waggoners. I strongly suspect Henry was related to the Waggoners by marriage, but I haven't been able to find the connection.
  
  Henry was apprenticed to Jacob Waggoner by his father. There is no record in the minutes of the Rowan Co Court of Quarter Sessions and Pleas of an orphan named Henry Trexler being bound to Jacob Waggoner. In 1816, there was a record of a summons for Jacob Waggoner to appear at the next Court and show cause why the "apprentice boy" Henry Trexler should not be taken away from Jacob Waggoner, blacksmith.
  
  Jacob Wagonner never appeared at the next session of Court. I am of the opinion the matter was settled or Jacob Waggoner left the county with Henry. Henry is probably the son of Peter Trexler, but I cannot prove it until I find Peter's place of death. He did not die in Rowan Co, NC.
  
  Henry and Elizabeth left Alabama and went to Mississippi where his brother Wiley (or William) was living. It is possible that he took Benjamin to Mississippi if the records haven't been located in Alabama. Wiley lived in Marshall Co Mississippi near his in-laws the Yarbroughs. Both Wiley and Henry bought land in Arkansas under the Swamp Land Donation Acts. Wiley bought land near the bank of the Mississippi where he ran a sawmill. Henry bought land in what is now Cross County, which was virgin timber land at that time. Henry was a blacksmith and had a shop in Cross County. He died in what was then Poinsett Co. AR and that Courthouse had burned twice during the Civil War years. His estate appears on the tax list of Cross Co in 1867, the first year of that County's records.⁴

  In the Rutherford Co Court of Pleas and Qtr Sessions there are much more entries regarding Anna and her children after Casper's Death. She and her children are living in his household in 1810. She is on her own living next door to son John Dye in 1820. About 1832 She bought land on Rosses Creek and sold it a year later, when the boys lost the land left to them by their father Henry who died Apr 1808 on the Millstone Fork of the Sandy Run.

  A peninsula lying between the Mattaponi and the Pamunkey Rivers, formerly called Pamunkey Neck. Prospered in colonial days when tobacco was king and in ante-bellum era when plantations and slave labor were plentiful.
  
  By middle of 17th century, a growing economy was fueled by tobacco plantations that line the shores of the two rivers. Barges loaded with cargo went up and down the rivers to and from the markets.
  
  ********************************
  
  Genealogy of the RANDLE FAMILY as given by James RANDLE now living near Paris, Tenn, in the 75th year of his age this April 27, 1867 and written by Edwin H. RANDLE:
  
  Previous to the war of 1776 about 30 or 40 years there moved from Virginia to Great Pedee (Yadkin R.), North Carolina and settled along the river three brothers, William, Peter and dumb John Randle or Randolph.
  
  William married Lucy Simms had sons Peyton, Meritt, William, Henry and Wyatt in order of their ages. Peyton married Lucy Roper and emigrated from VA to NC a descendant of some branch of the Green family to which General Nathaniel Green belonged, thought to be the Generals niece. Peyton and Lucy Randles' children were Mary Peterson, Martha Johnson, Sarah, James Roper, Susan Simms and Tabitha. Mary P. married William Randle, son of Major John Randle. Martha J. married George W. Atkins. Both died in Arkansas near Pine Bluff. Sarah, who is now living near Caledonia, married Richard Manly. James R. married Sallie Hogan, both of whom are now living five miles east of Paris Tenn. Susan married George Davidson Randle (parents of writer Edwin H. Randle).
  
  Tabitha first married Isaac Manly who left one daughter, the Hudson family of Paris. Second she married Col. James T. Williams, by him leaving two sons, Jas. T. and William Clinton. Merrit Randle, son of first William Randle married Nancy Crawford sister of old Tom Crawford, the latter the richest man in the county.
  
  Merrit Randle settled in Carrol County Tenn and reared a large family, youngest child Willism, now about 45 years old has been deranged for many years, but not badly most of the time.
  
  William Randle, son of the first William married Nancy Lyons, emigrated to Tennessee at an early day and settled on the Cumberland and then moved to Todd County Kentucky, and died leaving a large and well reared highly accomplished. Henry Randle, the 4th son married Annie Lilly, emigrated to Stuart County Tenn, became a Methodist Preacher and died in the pulpit, one of the best of men. Wyatt, 5th son, married Sallie Tomlinson, moved to Lounds Co Mississippi, did leaving a fortune and sons, Peyton, Henry, John, Douglass and three others.
  
  Peter Randle, one of the three brothers from VA, had three sons and two daughters, John, Douglass, Frederic, Lucy and Polly, of these John married a Marshall and had one son now living near or at Aberdeen Miss. and is wealthy. Douglass died when young, Frederic is still living at Crawfordville, Miss having reared a family.
  
  Lucy married a Lilly, and Polly married George Davidson, son of Col. Geo. Davidson of the old Revolution. Dumb John Randle the last of the three brothers became rich married and died with out issue.
  
  With these three brothers first named there also came about the same time from VA to the Great Pedee and settled in the same neighborhood three other brothers, first cousins of these, namely Richard, Colby, and John Randle or Randolph. Richard had two sons and one daughter, James, Osborn, and Susan. All remained so far as known in North Carolina.
  
  Colby Randle was said to be quite a dissipated man, had one son John who moved to Stuart County Tenn and died. Of the others nothing is known.
  
  Major John Randle was said to have been quite a gallant officer in the War of 1776. Was a man of marked energy and vigor, married Molly Ware and had sons Wilson, Thomas, and William, and daughters Ann, Susan, Amy, and Frankie.
  
  Wilson Randle (my grandfather) lost his eyesight in the meridian of life. His first marriage was to a daughter of Col. Geo. Davidson (who Col. of the war of 1776, and afterwards Congressman) left one son by her, Geo. D. Randle who married Susan Randle (see Peyton Randle) These were parents of Edwin H. Randle.
  
  The above is an exact duplicate of the genealogy of the Randle family transmitted to me through correspondence with Edwin H. Randle, during the year 1867, and now in my possession.

  From Mrs. Adelicia Wall Gilbert, of McKenzie, TN:
  
  The RANDLES are of pure English ancestry. It was said by one fo the forefathers that two brothers named RANDOLPH came from England and settled on Roanoke River [ my note - flows through southern edge of Brunswick Co, VA], that they or their descendants married into the Rolf family one of whom married Pocahontas, that their progeny became ashamed of their Indian blood and changed their name to Randle, Randall, Randell, etc. [ My note - Pocahontas married John Rolfe and had only one child, Thomas Rolfe who had only one child, Jane Rolfe who married Col. Robert Bolling. Not very possible to be descended from Randolph or Randle]
  
  RANDOLPH is an old English name, and the quick pronunciation of Americans which has corrupted so many names shortened it, for to this day all who preserve the original spelling are called Randle. But certain it is that three brothers settled in VA on the Roanoke and from there people of all the Randles of various ways of spelling th ename in the United States have sprung.
  
  She believes that somehow they became connected with the blood of Pocahontas.
  
  Tradition says that John RANDLE came over with his father and brothers about 1698 or 1699, the father probably dying on the way over since no record has been found of his arrival in the Colony.
  
  VA Quit rent rolls of 1704, King William County - John RANDALL found with 100 acres of land.
  (******King William County, taken from King and Queen County in 1701. St. John's Parish was the only parish in the county in 1701. St. Margarett's Parish was established in 1721 and St. David's in 1744)
  
  Children are named in an old Bible and were communicated in 1904 by Mrs. Reeves of Newton, Iowa. The names of the parents of the children are not given in the Bible. Some researchers believe they may have been of the Stafford and Prince William Couny families. [Children of a William Randolph?] Most researchers believe they are the children of John and Mary. Jeconias RANDLE mentioned in the Bible is mentioned as of King William Co in two places. Entries are made as RANDOLPH but the family has always been syled both ways. They were properly RANDLE however.
  
  From Kay:
  She found a book with abstracts from the earliest court records of Brunswick Co, VA between 1730 and 1735. They show Peter RANDOLPH/RANDLE, Josias, John, James and Jeconias. She believes that John and/or Mary died sometime around 1730 and the boys inherited some money. Peter is not listed in the Bible records which named all the other children which most people have concluded are the children of John and Mary. Could Peter be Josias and Jane's child "in esse"?

  "Randolph Bible Record
  
  "The following copies from entries in an old Bible were communicated in 1904 by Mrs. W. E. Reeves, of Newton, Iowa. The names of the parents of the children born 1700 & c, are not given; but the name Osborne would indicate that they were of the family of the name in Stafford and Prince William. The name Isham was probably given as a compliment to Isham Randolph of 'Dungeness', for the persons named in this Bible record were certainly not descended from William of 'Turkey Island'. By deed in Prince William County, Oct. 20, 1750, John Randolph, of Prince Wm., and his wife Ann, one of the daughters & co-heirs of Thomas Osborne of Prince William, conveyed a tract of land to Cuthert Harrison who had married Osborne's widow. The will of John Randolph was dated Sept. 11, 1789, and proved in Prince William, Nov. 5, 1790, legatees, wife Anne, daughter Sarah, daughter Peggy, daughter Betsy, daughter Mary Ann, sons John and Thomas Osborn Randolph, son Wm., daughter Mildred Oliver, daughter Mary Tyler, daughter Frances. The will of Wm. Randolph dated August 2, 1792, was proved in Prince Wm. Sept. 2, 1792, legatees; wife Elinor, and children Robert, William, George and Mildred.

  NOTE: RE PETER RANDOLPH/RANDLE. [From Kay Oatas]
  
  To my knowledge, there is no proof that Peter Randle is a child of John and Mary (Johns) Randle. In chapter 4 of The Ledbetters of Virginia (authors Roy C. Ledbetter, William R. Ledbetter, Justus R. Moll, James D. Tillman, Jr.), "Descendants of Henry Ledbetter of Brunswick County, Virginia", James Tillman placed him with this family and I would like to correct that notion. According to the book, Frances Randle, daughter of Peter and Frances (Barrett) Randle, married Charles Ledbetter and Frances Randles' siblings were Peter Randle "Jr" (married Mary Sims), William Randle (married Lucy "Simmons", should be Sims). FRANCES (RANDLE) LEDBETTER AND BROTHERS WERE ALL CHILDREN OF JOHN RANDLE (C), James Tillman, further explains that Peter (Frances Barrett) was the son of John and Mary (Johns) Randle and that this John Randle's will was proven in 1753, Brunswick Co, naming wife Frances and children Josias, Susanna, John, William, Peter and Frances. THIS WILL WAS THAT OF JOHN RANDLE (C), SON OF JOHN RANDLE AND WIFE, MARY JOHNS.
  
  In a letter to Edythe Whitley, J D Tillman mentions another Randall line (unidentified source) NOT PROVEN as follows:
  
  William Randall, born 1647, died 11 Apr 1712, married Rebecca Fowler and had:
  
  1. Jonathan Randall, died 10 Oct 1724, married Rithia Howard.
  
  2. Joseph Randall, a shipwright, 1684 - 30 Mar 1760, married Amey Esten (1 Jun 1685 - 8 Feb 1764).
  
  Amey Randall born 27 May 1717.
  Joseph Randall born 25 Aug 1718.
  
  Henry Randall born 2 Mar 1720.
  
  Peter Randall born 12 Jun 1723. The same unidentified source thought he was the Peter who married Frances Barrett 15 Feb 1742.
  
  3. Mary Randall married Zachariah Rhodes (5 Nov 1687 - 10 Jan 1740).¹
