1] Looking for more info on Eliza ORE who m Edgar BARNES
2] Looking for more info on Charles NIXON ORE who m Elizabeth COOK. We
are now told he died in IN but need the
proof.
3] A post from Gerald NIXON ON Rootsweb indicates the following: Could
someone help check out Joshua NIXON?
Joshua Nixon (7NOV1781-21NOV1872) Born in MD owned a plantation in VA
and owned Slaves.
Moved to Warren Co. IN and then on to Oskaloosa TWP, Clay Co. IL about
1830. First wife was Ruth HAYMOND,
Second wife Helen SMITH. Ruth died in Illinois shortly after arriving in
Illinois. Ruth and Joshua are both buried in the Nixon
Cemetery which was located about 200 feet behind Joshua's house. Ruth
(HAYMOND) NIXON was the first grave in this
cemetery. Joshua's brother Benjamin B. NIXON (also buried in the Nixon
Cemetery) migrated with him. Benjamin B.
NIXON's son Joshua Jr. NIXON (also buried in the Nixon cemetery) is
Caroline Virginia NIXON's father.
CAN ANYONE PROVE THIS FOR ME?
NOTE: Re: Benjamin B NIXON above:
Benjamin B. NIXON were in England then.moved to Ireland...then to
Maryland where Benjamin B (Belt) NIXON was
born. Then on the Va which later was W Va then on to OH, IN, IL, back to
IN.

below for the same people?
