Hello folks,
This one is a mystery to me ... does anyone have a clue who this Samuel
Cheek, born est. 1781 in Surry, NC is??? We know he married Nancy Ann Elrod
in March 22, 1802 in Surry, NC (from the Surry, NC Marriage Book).
Nancy Elrod was born Jan 4, 1785 Rowan Co NC. Some info said she had a
stillborn child ... Sep 22, 1805 ... some say they had a child, William
Cheek, who was born est 1804 in Surry County, North Carolina (named after the
William Cheek b. 1728 below???).
Others (on the Talledega County, AL forum) say: Sarah Pearce was living
in the home of Samuel and Nancy Ann Elrod Cheek in 1860 (not to be confused
with the one who married a Blackburn).
There is listed a Sarah Elrod/sister of Nancy. Could this be her. She had
a son named Abraham S. Pearce.
Does anyone have any idea where this Samuel Cheek came from??? He is the
perfect age/place to be the son of schoolteacher William Cheek (b.1728 in
England) who moved from Virginia and died in Surry, NC in 1802 near his sons
John, William, Pleasant, etc.. But no mention of Samuel was in William's
Last Will & Testament (except for the illegible Millia and Tella, which may
be Stella) ...
If you can help I'd appreciate it. My Rootsweb Cheek site (with 2,700
Cheeks) is at:

Thanks much, Jeffrey Lewis Williams

Does someone have primary or secondary documentation concerning the Richard & Silas CHEEK living in Tishomingo Co., MS in the 1850 census? I believe that both Richard and Silas are sons of Richard CHEEK whose will was probated Feb 1836 in Moore Co., NC. This conflicts with information in the book, "Families of Alcorn County Mississippi Volume II, as relayed to me by Aubrey Nash of Oklahoma City, which states that Silas is a son of Willis s/o James CHEEK and Ann MAYO. Since Silas was b. NC & then married Edith PHILLIPS in 1822, Chatham Co., NC, It would seem more likely that Silas was a son of Richard.
Any info which could prove or disprove my theory would be much appreciated.

Searching for information on the family (ancestors & descendants) of:
Larkin S. CHEEK, b. March 02, 1821 in GA and d. May 24, 1884 in Hog Mountain
District of Gwinnett County, GA; his wife, Mary Jane _____, b. 1822 in GA.
The census reports Larkin Cheek's father born in SC and his mother in NC. I
am most interested in Larkin's son, William J. CHEEK and his wife, Martha
Jane MARTIN Bailey Cheek's family, but welcome all information on this line.
Where is Mary Jane CHEEK, wife of Larkin, buried? Larkin is buried at Mt.
Moriah Baptist in Barrow Co., GA, as is several of his children and their
families.
1850 Larkin S. Cheek in Franklin Co., GA District 32, page 275.

I don't know who George is, but I do know that the .FTW after his name means that you are looking at his Family Tree Maker file. That program adds the .FTW as an extension when you post the tree on the internet. Some people list their email addresses on their family tree file. You might go to roots web and pull up his database and see if it is listed there.

Doris is right,
It is a pain to sign up (for the Yahoo/CheekPhotos page), but I went through
all the maze of steps (it takes awhile for that confirmation email) ... but I
found out part of the reason for all of the questions ... i.e. your zip code
... it (Yahoo) sets up a personalized page for you which shows your local
news, sports, movie theatres, etc ... so without the zip code info it would
not know what was "local" for you personally. Hope that helps. Take care,

Too many John C. Cheeks lol
It seems the Cheek family has an overabundance of Williams, Charles and
Johns. Hard to keep them all straight.
I am the John C. Cheek in NW Ohio
