I, too, would like to know from whom William H. DANIEL of Wilkerson Co., Georgia descends. Being correct is always the goal. You mentioned proofs from many sources that he is the William H. born 17 Sep 1826, named in the Bible of Josiah DANIEL, as well as being approved and accepted by the DAR - COLONIAL DAMES, CDXVII CENTURY, and DAUGHTERS OF FOUNDERS AND PATRIOTS OF AMERICAN) Would you please share the proofs, other than the membership organizations, with us. If Josiah's is a North Carolina family, was your William H. also born in NC? One of the others who may be the William H. DANIEL of Wilkinson Co. Ga in 1860 to after 1880 is William Harper DANIEL born 23 May 1827, son of Jesse DANIEL and Mary A. TUCKER of Baldwin County, Ga. There is circumstantial evidence to believe this may be true, including his next door neighbor in 1860 Wilkinson Co. being another of Jesse's sons, Robert T. DANIEL with his wife, Mary J. KINNEY. A second brother, Rev. John Thomas DANIEL, 39,born 6 July 1820, and wife Lucinda ANGLE are also listed in 1860 Wilkinson County, 21 pages from William and Robert. Baldwin and Wilkinson counties are neighbors. The William H. DANIEL in Wilkinson County, Ga. who married Sarah Ann HATCHER, widow of George SHINHOLSTER, is listed as being born in Georgia on the 1860 and 1880 census. Haven't found him in the 1870. He may be in Alabama then with others of his family who went there and returned to Ga. before 1880. Side note: There are comments online by some researchers saying that part of Wilkinson's 1870 census may be missing from the Heritage Quest data base. They say families known to be there simply aren't listed. This excerpt from a transcript of the Josiah DANIEL Bible was posted at http://wc.rootsweb.ancestry.com:80/cgi-bin/igm.cgi?op=GET&db=lots_of_... by Pam Crane who cited Roslyn as the source "Page 12 looks like fragments of the book copied. These are probably Samuel's children. Jasbey B. Daniel was born 15th day of November 1824 William H Daniel was born 17th of September 1826 Barbrea L. Daniel was Born 17 th obt 1827 Elinder K. Daniel was Born 23 of September 1832 Thomas B. Daniel was born 10th of march 1834 Saml Daniel was maried 2th day of November 1820 Marcy (Marey ?) was born 15th day of November 1821 Elisea L Daniel was Born 9th day of Apriel 1823" It is worth noting that William H. of Wilkinson County, if this William H., b. 17 Sep 1826, son of Samuel?, apparently did not name any of his children after his parents or his siblings. Did Samuel leave a Will naming William? The children of William H. DANIEL and Sarah Ann HATCHER of Wilkinson Co., GA were: i. Mary M. b. abt 1854 ii. James A. b. 1855 iii. William J. b. 1857 iv. Laura b. abt 1860 v. Anna ("Annah") b. abt 1867 vi. Joseph A. b. abt 1868 vii. Charles W. b. abt 1871 viii. Benjamin Melton b. 1872 ix. Rosa L. b. abt 1875 x. Robert F. b. 1877 In contrast, William Harper's father was Jesse, mother was Mary Ann, siblings were: James Robert, Joseph Levi, John Thomas, Arthur Reese, Robert Tucker, Martha Ann, Richard Marion, Louisa Constanza, Annabella Elizabeth, Daniel Harrison, Mackerness Goode, James R., and Augustus S. Additionally, William Harper's brother, John Thomas had a son Robert Franklin, b. 1864. Looking forward to hearing from you.
