Anita it is nice to have you on the list. I find I don't have a complete
listing after Richard, so maybe you can fill me in.
I have also been fascinated by Capt James, so we are cuzins. I would like to
someday visit the site, but doubt if we will get there. Considering my age
and we live in Phoenix and every summer we have to return to Montana to see
relatives there that are a lot closer. I have three of my four brother live
in Lewistown, Montana and my husbands mother lives there too. We lost the
fourth brother about 3 years ago now. He was the baby of the family. If you
took any pictures of the battle ground I would like a copy please.

My husband's Chitwood line is as follows:
Penn L. Chitwood and Etta Lee Bearden - grandparents
John W. Chitwood and Margaret King
*Pleasant Chitwood and Matilda Simpson (On 1860 census in Cherokee Co.
TX)
(First Chitwood to be buried in Corine, Cherokee Co. TX, I think)
Lazarus Chitwood and Mary Leiper
James Chitwood and Martha White
Richard Chitwood and Winney ?
Matthias Chitwood and Mary Key
Another Chitwood connection is:
Penn Chitwood and Etta Lee Bearden, dau of
James P. Bearden and Mary E. Morris, son of
John W. Bearden and Martha Chitwood, dau of
*Pleasant Chitwood and Matilda Simpson
Etc.. . .
Martha Chitwood on one side of family was a sister of John W. Chitwood on
other side of the family. Does that make Pleasant and Matilda DOUBLE
gr-gr-grandparents to my husband???? Interesting!

Bill's line goes:
Billy Ray Chitwood
Ray Bannon
John Q "Dock"
Lindsey
Joel
William (one of the founders of Scott Co. TN)
James (First Family of TN - Rev. War)
Richard
Matthias
Mine goes (from my Poyntz line):
Avicia de Chetwode m. William le Breton of Long Itchington, Warwickshire
- living 1292/3.
William de Chetwode
Robert de Chetwode m. Sybil de Freville (info. from Ronny Bodine)
I'm doing genealogical research on both sides of my family. My mother
was a Chitwood. She has a sister and a brother, and as the brother only
has three daughters, it looks like that part of the Chitwood line will
end with him.
I have a copy of Descendants of Matthias Chitwood. My grandfather's name
was Ralph Chitwood, and from there the line goes backward like this:
William Charles Chitwood
Rufus Chitwood
Richard Chitwood
Shadrack Chitwood, Jr.
Shadrack Chitwood
James Chitwood
Matthias Chitwood
I'm especially fascinated by the circumstances surrounding James' death
in the Revolutionary War. I've visited the battle site of Kings'
Mountain twice.
Completely off topic, I also have a nine-month old who at the moment is
trying to "help" Mommy type on the computer!

As she had already erased her message I told her I would put it on for her.

A recent book by Ronny O. Bodine and Brother Thomas W. Spalding, Jr.,
The Ancestry of Dorothea Poyntz, Wife of Reverend John Owsley, was just
printed - it is wonderful and has reference to Chetwode:
Avicia de Chetwode m. William le Breton of Long Itchington,
Warwichshire, liv. 1292/3. Her father was William Chetwode and his
parents (according to Ronny, etc.) were Robert de Chetwode and Sybil de
Freville.
Below is some information I just sent Ronny:
Ronny, Just wanted to let you know what a fantastic job was done on the
Ancestry of Dorothea Poyntz. Enjoying every bit of it.
My husband's line, Chitwood, ties into the Chetwode line (believe I sent
you copies out of the Chetwode of Chetwode book by Stephen Tucker.
Anyway, his line comes from William's brother, John de Chetwode, knight,
who married Oliue, both referred to in a letter sans date, Arms:
Chetwode. In the book William is listed as second sonne, parents Robert
Chetwode, Lo. of Chitwode, lyued in the vth yeare of K. henry the first,
Arms: Chetwode, he married Sibell, da. of Thomas Strange and of Amabell
his wife (re. Carta sans date.) Robert's line goes to Raufe de Chetwode,
knight, sonne and heire. Carta s.d., Arms: Chetwode. > Robert Chetwode,
Lord of Chetwode, son & heire. Carta s.d., Arms: Chetwode. > John de
Chetwode, Knight, Lord of Chetwode in Com. Bucking., founder of ye
Priorie of Chetwode. Arms: Quarterly argent and gules, four crosses
pattee countrechanged, Chetwode
Reference listed for William is: "This Will'm Chetwode gaue to Robert
Chetwode his Nephew fourtie shillings by the yeare to be in the town of
Horton in Com. Kent. Cart. sanz date." [His nephew, Robert Chetwode,
Lord of Chetwood, knight. Liued the 10 E. 1 and 14 E. 1, married Lucie,
Ladie of Harcliue, mother to Sr. John Chetwoode.]
Reference re. John Chetwode: "This Sr John Chetwode, knight, founder of
the priorie Church of Chetwode, was buried in ye Priory church of
Chetwode together with his Wife, whose monument was defaced after teh
suppression of the said Priory, as appeareth by seuerall depositions
taken by vertue of a Commission out of ye Chauncerie Ao 25 Eliz."
Reference for Robert (William and John's father): "This Sr Rob't, Lord
of Chetwode, did release from him and his heires to the prior and Canons
of Chetwode and their successours in free Almes all rentes, dueties, and
servile customes due to the s'd Rob't and his heires which they held of
his fee and had in the towne and feild of Chetwode, for which release
the Priour and Cou'uent did graunt yearly to pay to the said Rob't and
his heires a marke of siluer in teh p'ish church of Chetwood, as may
appeare by a deed dated the 5 H. And further his wife, Sibell Estrange,
in her widowhood did after grant in free almes two yarde land with the
appurtennces to ye Hermitage of Chetwode and to the brethren their
abideings."
Also, don't know if I sent you the following:
S 544
A.D. 949. King Eadred to �thelm�r, praeses; grant of 20 hides (manentes)
at Chetwode and Hillesden, Bucks. Latin with
English bound, and note, in English, referring to Chadshunt, Warwicks.
http://www.trin.cam.ac.uk/chartwww/regestafiles/English_Eadred_1of2.html
Would put the Chetwode's in England before the Conquest.
Do you have the references from Memorials of the Danvers Family, by
F.N. Macnamara re. Chetwode/Chitwoods? Would love to have a copy
Again, thanks for a wonderful book. Julie
I have noticed we have had some new subscribers join just lately and although
I am the list owner, I have not been doing a good job.
I think it would help if each of us introduced ourselves and let people know
where you hook into the Chitwood's. I have been fascinated for a long time by
them. I come into the Chitwoods first as Captain James Chitwood was an
ancestor of mine and then I go down to Joshua born abt 1758 - then James
again born abt 1796 - then Joshua born 1826 - then Elizabeth born 1851, who
married a Kirkland. Elizabeth was my great grandmother. Then another
Elizabeth who married a Charles Phillips. I have not been able to find out
much about the Kirkland's, but am still searching.
I guess one mistake I have made is I am searching for Phillips and of course
both sides and I guess you all know what I mean. Then I started on my
husbands families and are working on them. Oh, well, I enjoy it and I know we
have some of subscribers who know a lot about the Chitwoods.
If nothing else send us your web pages so we may look at them.
