I am descended from the following:
Generation 1: W. John CARRIER b. ca 1705 ENG, d. Nov. 1773 Shenandoah Co., VA. m. Jemima
NICHOLAS (believed to be second or third wife) Jemima b. ca 1740
Generation 2: Martha CARRIER b. ca 1764. She was bonded to Jonathan PUGH in 1773 when W.
John CARRIER died, making her under age. Mother, Jemima, still living at the time.
Generation 3: Jemima "Mima" CARRIER b. ca 1782 VA. m. John HISEY 4 April 1804
VA. Martha CARRIER shown as mother giving consent. Believe Jemima may have been born out
of wedlock or this is a different Martha CARRIER. Jemima was known to go by the name of
"WHITE". Don't know if she was adopted or living with a WHITE family, or
perhaps her father was named WHITE. Need help here. Jemima d. 1855 Lantz Mill,
Shenandoah Co., VA. Her son-in-law, Adam DIRTING gave the information at her death.
Thanks for any help anyone might be able to give me. Ginny
