In reading a film with sales/inventories and administration accounts
(#19,355) in Nash Co, I found John Chamblee (who lived in Little River Dist
in Wake Co NC) attending a sale of Drury Taylor in Nash Co 3/10/1823. I
always find it interesting when I see people travel to a sale from another
county. Often sales in documents should be entitled to us latter-day
researchers, "See this sale and who purchased? See if you can figure out how
we are all related."
John Chamblee purchased only a bible and a dictionary. He went all the way to
Nash County [of course, I don't know where the sale was held in Nash Co,
perhaps he only traveled a few miles] to purchase a bible and a dictionary.
You will find at the sale of John Chamblee's estate that Dilly Strickland
(his second wife) purchased two bibles. I guess John Chamblee bought one of
them from Drury Taylor's estate, don't know why he needed two bibles, but
it's interesting to me.
Also purchasing at the Drury Taylor sale were:
Matthew Strickland (who might be related to a Taylor)
Reuben Strickland who marr Nancy Chamblee, neice to John Chamblee above
(bought ham)
Zadock Strickland - purchased 1 sm. trunk
Burrell Strickland - puchased leather
Arnold Strickland - corn
Jesse Strickland - bread stone
These are well known Stricklands who resided in Nash County and prob Wake
Cos, NC, and when I see THIS many people of one surname at a sale I go, "oh
oh.....what's up here with these Stricklands?"
The estate accounting was entered at court, May session 1823, Nash Co.
And so it goes with tiny ancestral clues, trivia, and the interesting ways of
our ancestors.
D'Ann
D'Ann, wasn't this less than 5 miles? Also could the Drury
Taylor have
been related to Dilly? Was Strickland her first married name? If so,
Taylor may have been her maiden name. Or perhaps Dilly's mother was a
Taylor?
James and Sarah Boulton's great-grandson Joseph M. Bolton (through Mabry
and Mary, through James and Polly) married Florence Tate, who mother was
a Taylor. This was in Pickens/Greene Counties AL.
TO THE LIST:
John Chamblee bought James and Sarah Boulton's land when their youngest
son Ephraim left for Tennessee. Three of Ephraim's brothers married
Chamblee daughters of Robert and Esther.
