Beginning March 2nd, 2020 the Mailing Lists functionality on RootsWeb will be discontinued. Users will no longer be able to send outgoing emails or accept incoming emails. Additionally, administration tools will no longer be available to list administrators and mailing lists will be put into an archival state.
Administrators may save the emails in their list prior to March 2nd. After that, mailing list archives will remain available and searchable on RootsWeb
Tom and Jim,
I think you meant to send this to the list and not to me personally. I have
forwarded to list as query. I have nothing to disclaim your statements, as
you might recall most of my database is a corralation of yours, Loesther
Clanton, and Betty Hinson's records.

We can document our ancestry back to a John Clanton who married Amy
Wyche and lived in Surrey and Sussex Counties, Virginia. We know that
his mother is Mrs. Mary Clanton who died about 1751 in Sussex County.
We have assumed that she is the same Mary Clanton, wife of William
Clanton who died in Surrey County, Va., in 1726. Can anyone prove this
for sure. William names children Richard, Nathaniel, Agnes and Joanna
Clanton in his Will. Mary names John, Nathaniel, William and "all my
daughters" in her Will.
Richard Clanton died 1750 Surrey County, Va., in 1750. When he died
he left three orphaned children under aged (don't know how many over
age) named Ephraim, David and Agnes Clanton. My John Clanton became
guardian of David, so there is a close relationship. If Richard was
John's brother it would fit as Mary would not name a deceased son. But
if this Richard had young children he would most probably not be a
landowner in Prince George County, Va., over 40 years earlier, alongside
a William Clanton. This older Richard may be the Richard named in 1726
Will of William.
Is William Clanton, died 1726, the same as the 1704 William of Prince
George County? Is he the same William mentioned several records as
living in the 1680's? Or are there several different William's. Was
his wife's name really Mary Holt (cannot find her anywhere in Holt
family history and she does not fit with the Mary Seward Holt that some
try to make her.
About 27 years ago we started doing Clanton research and in our early
days at it we were quite green and jumped to several conclusions. We
may have started the story of William Clanton of Surrey County, Va., and
Edward Clanton, ho died 1740 in Brunswick County, Va., being brothers.
It appeared they were. Now we are no longer positive. It is possible
that Edward could be an older son not mentioned in William's will. He
purchased land a year prior and William (if he is the father) may of
thought he was taken care of and gave stuff to younger children. But it
is quite possible they are brothers. Any documentation? Mary Clanton
in her 1751 Will does give one dollar to Edward Clanton's son Thomas.
Nathaniel Clanton, son of Mary Clanton, had his first child born in
1741. This would probably mean he was married about 1739-40. The
Nathaniel Clanton, son of the 1726 William, was given all the property
of Nathaniel Phillips in his 1729 Will. If both these Nathaniel's are
the same person, would he either be too young for that inheritance or
not be married til later in life (his last son, Holt Clanton, was born
1759, the year Nathaniel died.
One last question. Does anyone have any proof or documentation (other
than the Mormon IGI records) that John Clanton, immigrant from England,
is the father of Marmaduke Clanton or any other children; also any proof
or documentation that Marmaduke Clanton is father of Edward or William
Clanton? I have only come across one mention of John (list of people on
the ship) and one mention of Marmaduke (the indentured servant list) and
never anything putting together a family. I have seen records of an
early Edward Clanton (1673) and early William Clanton (1680's). If
anyone has any records putting these people together in a family we will
be very interested.
We saw one record state that our descent went from William Clanton to
his son Nathaniel Clanton to his son John Clanton (who married Amy
Wyche) and have wondered if this is correct and there were two
Nathaniel's back there. It is unfortunate that the records of the time
are so meager.
One other problem wehave come across is documenting the two William
Clanton's (one being the son of Mary Clanton of 1751 and the William
Clanton, son of Edward Clanton of 1741 Brunswick County (Edward being
married to Sarah, some giving her maiden name as Evans). Can anyone
document which William was in Warren County, NC, and which William was
in Granville County, NC....both have circumstantial evidence making them
children of either Mary or Edward, and we don't know who is who. Common
thought makes Warren County belong to Edward and Granville County to
Mary, but...........
Reckon that is it for this time around. Any thoughts and/or
documentation will be greatly appreciated.
One last thing. Clantons of Kershaw County, SC, mostly descend from
David, Ephraim and Richard Clanton (the last assumed to be an older
brother), sons of the Richard Clanton who died in 1750 in Surrey Co.,
Va. Edward Clanton's son Charles wound up in Union County, SC, and his
will names two sons: Stephen and Sion. Stephen moved to Kentucky. Does
anyone know who the Clantons are from the Camden area named Nathaniel,
William, John and Charles that fought with the English during the
Revolutionary War. Were they brothers? Father and sons? Where do they
connect with the others. Ephraim, David and Richard all supported the
rebels. Those four that fought with the English...Charles deserted near
the end and disappears. Does anyone know if he is the Charles Clanton
that goes to Georgia? One thought, there was a John Clanton
(relationship unknown) that married in Surrey or Sussex Cos, Va, to a
Sarah Holt, daughter of a Charles Holt. Maybe John was one of those who
supported the Crown and he named a son after his father-in-law and also
two other sons, namely William and Nathaniel. The trouble is that in
the Clanton family they used the same given names so often.
Well, it's getting late, so G'nite. Tom and Jim Goldrup.

I am still searching for documentation that William Clanton who died
Surry Co., VA 1726 and Edward Clanton who died Brunswick Co., VA 1741
are brothers as well as being the sons of Edward Clanton and Sarah
Evans? Does ANYONE have proof? I would also like to know the
identify of William Clanton mentioned in a 1714 Prince George Co.,
VA court record? Is he the same Willilam who died in Surry 1726?

Hi all Clanton List Members,
I received a message this morning from Susan that may explain the errors in
my GEDCOM which I advised you of in a previous message today. Following is
the text of Susan's message.
>Bill,
I have explanation, not good one, but only one I have. When you originally
sent me your GEDCOM, I put your information in the pot (so to speak) with
all
the other families I am researching. I keep one big database on all
surnames... Anyway, when the webpage idea came around I did not search for
your diskette, I just pulled your individuals out of my database. This is
the only reason I have for seeing "Southaven Elementary School" as
someone's
burial place in your database on the webpage...
Thankfully, all is not lost. I did away with my "big pot" and went back to
individual surnames for the time being. I have found your original
diskette
that you sent to me and your database will be posted on the webpage as soon
as I work tonite, sleep some in the morning, and start work on updating the
webpage on my next two days off...Monday nite and Tuesday nite.
I will give you the URL before I make it public and let you have the
opportunity to look it over before I open it to the rest...
Susan<
I can only guess that Susan's explanation is the cause for errors being
introduced into my GEDCOM. It seems that this must have been the cause
since my data base does not include a place named "Southaven Elementary
School" and the GEDCOM on the Webpage had one of my individuals being
buried there.
I will stay in touch with Susan and if she is unable to use the GEDCOM
diskette I sent to her, I will send her a new one. Again, I apologize for
this happening, and I hope it has not caused serious problems for other
researchers.
Sincerely,
Bill Sharp

Hi All Clanton List Members,
At my request, Susan Groover has temporarily pulled my GEDCOM from the
Clanton Webpage because we have discovered some unexplained errors in this
GEDCOM.
For some, yet unknown, reason, all place entries in this GEDCOM which
should read "Bradley Co., AR" have mysteriously changed to "Pr. George Co.,
VA" For example, my Grandfather, Horace Linton "Lent" Sharp was born,
married, died, and is buried in" Bradley Co., AR". But, the GEDCOM that
was on the Clanton Webpage shows he was born, married, died, and was buried
in "Pr. George Co., VA." We don't know if other similar errors have been
introduced to the GEDCOM.
I have checked my data base and everything in it appears correct.
Therefore, we don't know at this time whether the errors were somehow
introduced when I created the GEDCOM, or if they were introduced when Susan
converted the GEDCOM to her program, or when she converted it to the format
that was displayed on the Webpage.
Susan is checking the GEDCOM I sent her and I am checking my genealogy
program and the way it creates GEDCOMs to try and find how/where these
errors were introduced. One thing for sure, my data base shows the correct
places.
If any of you have used information from this GEDCOM, please get in touch
with me by e-mail to check the accuracy of the data you have used from this
GEDCOM. I apologize for these errors and sincerely hope that they have not
caused problems for other researchers. As soon as Susan and I can
determine how/where these errors were introduced, we will post a correct
version of the GEDCOM to the Clanton Webpage.
If any of you have had a similar problem when creating/converting GEDCOMs,
please let Susan and I know about it, as your information could help us
track down the cause of this problem.
Sincerely,
Bill Sharp
I was going thru some old files sent to me a long time ago. A distant cousin
had
gotten this information, had no interest in it and mailed it on to me. To
make a long
story short, I ran across a few notations about a George Washington CLANTON.
This is what I got:
George Washington Clanton born about 1860 in Madison Co. Florida.
He married Esther Margaret (Margaret Esther) CONNELL
Esther Margaret CONNELL was born 1855 most likely in Berrien Co.
Georgia.
Her parents were John E. and Nancy CONNELL.
George W. CLANTON is great grandfather of Cecil L. CLANTON
There are also two names written under George W. CLANTON's
name:
l. Maude b-1878
2.Mary M b-1879
_______________________________________________________________________
That is the extent of the information. I don't know the source. It was sent
to me
over 10 years ago and at the time I had no interest in genealogy, but being
somewhat of a pack rat I filed it away. The last two names listed were hand
written
in and I don't know if they are implied to be George's daughters or not.
If the George Washington CLANTON you are looking for came from Florida,
Madison Co. might be a good place to start your search. I hope this
information is of some
use to you. Cact J103(a)aol.com
Isaac Clanton was born about 1794 in North Carolina. By April 9, 1819
he was living in Harrison County, Illinois, at which time he married
Margaret Lane, born about 1804 in North Carolina. They moved to
Tennessee and is assumed to be the Isaac Clanton in 1820 Lincoln County,
Tn; moved betwen 1830 and 1833 to Illinois, where he is living in the
1850 and 1860 census in Hamilton County. Among their children were
Thomas, James, Celia, Elizabeth, Milly, John, Sarah, Isaac and Margaret
Clanton. We think he may very well be a son of Thomas and Sarah (Moore)
Clanton of Surry County, North Carolina, but cannot prove that idea.
Any help out there will be greatly appreciated. Tom and Jim Goldrup.
One last thought on my earlier e-mail. I substituted Benjamin A. as husband
of Ella OUTLAW to see what the pedigree looked like. It works like this:
?Clanton m. ?? their child was:
Benjamin R. m. Lenora ? Their child:
Benjamin A. m. Ella OUTLAW Their children were:
Benjamin T. , Mary, Emma, Sidney, & Furman
Edgar, Do you have any access to vital records in SC?
In a message dated 97-09-27 00:38:44 EDT, you write:
<< In 1920, Lenora Clanton was enumerated in the census with Frank Shaw and
Emma
B. (Clanton) as grandmother.
In 1910, Emma 14 years old (as granddaughter) had been enumerated with
Benjamin R. Clanton and Lenora E.
In 1900, Emma was living somewhere else (Benjamin and Lenora has Elisha and
Flora - married a Jones (who were also grandchildren).
Elisha's living children know about his sister Flora but no one knows the
actual relationship on Emma. Does anyone have any ideas?
>>
The following probably adds to the mystery but I found the following in a ?
SC Census for Richland Co., SC. but couldn't tie it in though. This is the
first time I have seen an OUTLAW associated with the CLANTON line.
? Clanton m. Ella L. OUTLAW(1869SC-??) Their children are:
Benjamin T. (1892SC-??)
Mary (1894SC-??)
Emma (1896SC-??) m. Frank SHAW(1884SC-??)
Sidney (1901SC-??)
Furman (1905SC-??)
I hope this helps a little. If you can connect this family please supply me
the additional data. Thanks Lloyd McDaniel
John CLANTON was born in England in 1609. He had at least 3 sons born in
what is now Virginia, U.S.A. His sons were as follows:
Edward CLANTON - born 1635 Charles City, Virginia, U.S.A.
Marmaduke Clanton - born 1637 James City, Virginia, U.S.A.
William Clanton - born 1640 Virginia
l. Where in England was John CLANTON born?
2. Who were his parents?
3. Who was his spouse?
4. When did he come to America?
5. Did he have other children in addition to the 3 sons listed above?
6. Did he have siblings?
Of course I would like as much information on John Clanton as possible, but

In 1920, Lenora Clanton was enumerated in the census with Frank Shaw and Emma
B. (Clanton) as grandmother.
In 1910, Emma 14 years old (as granddaughter) had been enumerated with
Benjamin R. Clanton and Lenora E.
In 1900, Emma was living somewhere else (Benjamin and Lenora has Elisha and
Flora - married a Jones (who were also grandchildren).
Elisha's living children know about his sister Flora but no one knows the
actual relationship on Emma. Does anyone have any ideas?
The other mystery about this family is
What happened to Benjamin A. Clanton (Benjamin R. and Lenora's only child)
between the mid-1890s and 1900? I found a small newspaper clipping at the
Darlington Archives that said that Benjamin and his family had visited
Chesterfield County in the mid-1890s but it didn't say where they came from or
list his family members.

My apologies to you all...response to the website has been overwhelming at
points and I have not been able to respond back to individuals like I would
like to!
My "paying" work has had me on a weird schedule and I have done minor updates
as they have been brought to my attention, but not much more. The next major
workday(s) for me on the website will be September 29 & 30...at that time I
hope to work on updating:
1. CLANTON Resource Extracts...adding Land Record from Florida contributed
by Betty Ward
2. Changing CLANTON of the Month...(need a biography for November...anyone
want to work on a contribution?)
3. Working on re-instating family photo album...plan on putting "thumbnails"
on the page and letting people choose what they want to see. This will keep
down the time to load the page and the individual can choose how much time
they want to spend on the page. The photo album project will be somewhat
time consuming.
"Backburner" projects are for the "virtual" family group sheet and pedigree
charts. And possibly adding a new area for favorite family recipes...What
'da ya'll think about 'dat one?
Anyone with links to sites you have visited and liked the information or
found information useful of a genealogy nature...please forward the URL with
brief description to me!
PLEASE keep in mind this is suppose to be a join project.
Again, thanks to all on your kind words about the website. I do not remember
the exact date the counter was enacted or the exact count...but for the first
month we have had 160+ visitors. Traffic should increase when we are
activated into The GenePool Webring.
I think that just about covers it for this update.

Description
The CLANTON Mailing List is an e-mail list for genealogical research of the CLANTON surname. We are interested in any time period and all geographic areas pertaining to the CLANTON surname.
Information
The purpose of the CLANTON Mailing List is to band together those who research the CLANTON surname, so that we can share experiences, examine sources, give advice, make suggestions that others may find the information they are seeking.
