Hi all,
Does anybody recognize this family? I'm trying to find proof of the parents and
siblings of Susannah CECIL who married Gilliam REGAN.
In 1821 William Cecil was Adm. for estat of Thomas Cecil. Gilliam Regan and William
Kennedy were his sureties.
In 1841 Allen Cecil was appointed Adm. of estate of William Cecil. He
entered into bond with Samuel Stout (Allen had married Elizabeth Stout 1807). Papers
included the names of Gilliam Regan and wife [Susannah CECIL]. It has been hypothesized
that William was Allen's unmarried brother.
In August 1843, State of NC, Sheriff of Davidson Co., N. N. Clement Lainer obtained
judgement against Allen Cecil, adm. of Wm. Cecil, dec'd, for $100, principal money
and the interest from Apr. 1842.
Suit names:
Benjamin Cecil
Lucy Cecil
Jarrad Cecil and wife Sally
Gilliam Regan and wife [Susannah CECIL]
Elizabeth Lanier
The Sheriff, Clement Lanier (above) seems to be the son of Elizabeth Lanier (mentioned in
the judgement).
Marr. records show:
Susannah Cecil to Gilliam Regan 12/24/1813
Benjamin Cecil to Elizabeth Cecil 3/12/1822
Jarred Cecil to Sarah Cecil 3/22/1822
Allen Cecil to Elizabeth Stout 12/29/1807
Elizabeth Cecil to Clement Lanier
Some seem to think Susannah's father was Thomas CECIL, but I've not seen any proof
of this. I don't know how to fit this group in with the other Cecils in Rowan
County.
Susannah seems to have been born in VA, but her parents came from MD.
Thanks for any help.
Debbie
