William Stamps and Sarah Sanford

Again, I have a question on the children of another Stamps couple.  William's will mentions sons Edmund and Sanford and a son-in-law John B. Cheney.  Most people say that John's wife was named Martha, though the will does not state.  I do not possess any records that actually say her name, but I am sure some exist somewhere.  (If anyone has one or can point me towards one, that would be great!)

Now, most people have a John and a James as sons of William and Sarah.  The will does not mention them, even though they were still alive at the time of the will.  I know they lived in the same area with William and Sarah, but lack any actual proof they were sons.

I have seen several issues with James Stamps (supposed son of William and Sarah) and it seems he has been confused/merged with another James Stamps, who was the son of John Stamps and Purthenia Davis. I have added the following note to my files: "I have noticed an error and am going to make an assumption as to what should be correct.  James Stamps, son of John and Purthena Dodson Stamps is said to have been born on August 6, 1779.  James Stamps, son of William Stamps and Sarah Sanford is also said to have been born on the same date.  My thoughts are that at some point these two Jameses have been confused and the date on one was never corrected or changed.  Since the burial of James, son of William and Sarah is known (though I have not seen the grave stone) I will assume the August birth date is published there and the James Stamps, son of John and Purthena is the one that is incorrect.  Unless someone shows me a record or I find one that states otherwise, I will leave my file this way."  I have also noticed that James, son of William and Sarah, married Elizabeth Davis and James, son of John and Purthenia, married Sarah "Betty" Davis. As you can see, they were born around the same time and married women with similar names.  They also both were born in Virginia and moved to Tennessee.  I can see where the mix up can happen.  (Any further incite would be welcome!!)

Also, I see a note about a son that William and Sarah raised named Richard Stamps, son of a Steven Stamps from up north.  How do they relate to his family?  I have not previously heard of this before this week and am curious about this story.

Stamps Questions

Well, I am still working heavily in my Stamps family and I am curious to know if anyone has proof of the following relationships in their files.

The following children of John Stamps and Purthenia Dodson:
1.  Nathan Stamps
2.  Joseph Stamps
3.  Martin Stamps

I do not doubt Nathan's kinship with this family, but am reluctant to include him based on circumstantial evidence, like having a son with the middle name of Dodson and his son being mentioned in letters as a cousin to other Stamps known to be in the John / Purthenia line.

I do not have any records in my files connecting those three children with John and Purthenia.  Any information concerning them will be helpful!

The following children of William Stamps (son of John and Purthenia).
1.  William Stamps
2.  Thomas Norman Stamps
3.  Jefferson Stamps
4.  Vianna Stamps

I do not have any records for this family.

The following children of James Stamps and Sarah Betty Davis
1.  Melissa Stamps
2.  Angelina Stamps
3.  Samuel Stamps
4.  Lucinda Stamps
5.  Nathan Stamps

I know that Angelina and Samuel are siblings since Samuel's children are living with her in 1860.  Any further records appreciated!

The following children of Hosea Stamps and Catherine Ector
1.  Jetta Stamps
2.  Drucilla Stamps
3.  William Edward Stamps
4.  Jane Stamps
5.  Eliza Ann Stamps

I would appreciate any records linking these children to their parents!

I have used the work of Will Stamps as a basis for most of my own Stamps research.  Most of what are in his files are accurate and I have been able to verify much of his information on my own.  The above are just a few that I have not been able to verify from his work.

Thank you so much!!!

Haven't Forgotten

My blog has taken a back seat in my life for a while due to a lot of family changes over the last couple of months. I gave birth to my beautiful daughter in May and now my husband and I are planning and organizing our move to Mississippi. It may be quite a while before I get back into typing my posts regularly. Hopefully in the next couple of months, I'll get back to typing.

The Snow Family - Thomas Snow and Mary Sue White

Thomas Snow was born in 1793. He married Mary Sue White, a daughter of Jesse White. I do not know anything more about Jesse or the siblings of Mary. If anyone happens to find anything, I'd love to know about it. Thomas and Mary are the earliest Snows that I can prove my line to. I am really confident that Thomas is the son of Mark, but I lack that document as definitive proof of the connection. Thomas and Mary were married sometime is early 1824 or before. The couple initially resided in Gwinnett County, Georgia before moving their family to Carroll County. Georgia, where they are recorded in 1850 and 1870.

Thomas and Mary's oldest child was Marcus Lafayette Snow born on December 05, 1824 in Gwinnett County, Georgia. On February 29, 1848, he married Syrena Ann Manley in Lowndes County, Alabama. After they were married, the couple lived in Carroll County, Georgia, but later moved to Cleburne County, Alabama then to Calhoun County, Alabama. They later moved back to Cleburne County where Marcus died on March 8, 1910. He and his wife are buried at the Heflin City Cemetery in Heflin, Cleburne, Alabama. Marcus and Syrena had the following children: Mary Earnestine, Jefferson Lafayette, Missouri Ann, Martha M., Fountain, Sarah Jane Kansas, Thomas Clarisy and Florence Izora.


David Snow was the second son of Thomas and Mary. He was born in 1826. I do not know anything more about him.

The third son of Thomas and Mary was George Washington Snow, born in 1828. He married Mollie C. Hamilton on March 31, 1881. I have one child recorded for this union. His name is also George Washington Snow. George Jr. was born in 1868, so he was 13 when the marriage took place. It is not known whether or not George Jr. was George Sr's son or if he adopted him after the marriage. When George Jr. died, the Snow family questioned his widow's claim to property suggesting that the family did not see George Jr. as a legitimate son of George Sr.

Launty Snow is the fourth son. He was born in 1832. Nothing further is known about him.

Thomas Jefferson Snow is the fifth son, born in 1833. He is my ancestor. I will discuss his family in my next blog post.

The sixth son is William M. Snow, born on April 12, 1835. He married Mary Hill, daughter of Marlin Hill, some time before 1859. They had the following children: Isaiah Newton, Anna A., George Washington M. and Willie J. William died on June 02, 1877 in Cleburne County, Alabama.

Seventh son was Leander Snow. He was born in 1840. Nothing further is known about him.

Benjamin Franklin Snow was the eighth son of Thomas and Mary. He was born in 1842. On December 20, 1867, Benjamin married Mary Page. They had 2 children together: Mary A. and Thomas Napoleon. I do not know if his first wife died or if they divorced. On July 30, 1876, Benjamin married for a second time to Florence Frances Durrett, sister to his brother Thomas's wife. Florence bore to him the following children: James Benjamin Franklin, William Jefferson, Martha Cora and Bennie Viola. Benjamin died on June 02, 1877. The couple is buried at the First Baptist Church in Ranburne, Cleburne, Alabama.

Adeline was the 9th child and oldest known daughter of Thomas and Mary. She was born in 1844. I do not know anything further on her.

Edna Paratine Snow was the youngest child of Thomas and Mary. She was born in 1846 and died in 1862. I know nothing else about her.

The Snow Family - Mark Snow

Mark Snow was born in 1764 in Virginia. Mark married Elizabeth Tarrant in Virginia. She was born in 1762 to Benjamin Tarrant and Martha Dalton. By 1789, Mark Snow and his family moved to South Carolina, presumably around the Greenville area. In November of that same year, Mark purchased land in Georgia from a Reuben Bennett. I would really like to know which county so I can find the deed for this transaction. In 1809, Mark was living in Jackson County, Georgia where is is recorded on the Tax Digest for the county. By 1820, Mark had moved to Gwinnett County, Georgia where he is recorded in the 1820 and 1830 census records. According to research done by one descendant, Mark Snow was the Justice of the Peace in Gwinnett County for a time. I would love to see the documents that prove this. I have transcripts of Jury records from 1821, 1823 and 1824 that lists Mark Snow as serving on a Jury in Gwinnett County during those years. I have no proof of the names of the children of Mark and Elizabeth. The children I have listed are: Polly, Fountain, Mildred, Thomas, Martha, George Washington, Elizabeth and Sarah.

Polly was born in 1783 and married Samuel B. McClure.

Fountain was born in 1785. I do not know much on Fountain. He is on the 1809 Tax Digest with his father. I found a census record from 1850 in Saline Co. AR that lists a Fountain Snow age 69 born in Virginia. Is this Fountain?

Mildred was born in 1788. She married Valentine Harlan in 1809 in Jackson County, Georgia. They had the following children: Martha, Aaron, Julia, George, Joshua, Elizabeth, Joseph, Isaiah Hollingsworth and Jane.

Thomas was born in 1793. I will discuss his line further in my next post since he is my ancestor.

Martha was born in 1798. I do not have anything further on her.

George Washington was born in 1801. He married Narcissa Webb. They had the following children: Benjamin Franklin, Wyatt M., Sarah, Marion A., Harvey Newton, Elizabeth, Angeline, Lydia, George W. and Sarah Catherine. George and his family moved from Carroll County, Georgia where they were living in 1830 to Cobb County, Georgia by 1850. Later, they moved to Dale County, Alabama where the couple presumably died sometime after the 1870 census.

Elizabeth was born in 1804. She married James Harlin. James and Valentine, who married Elizabeth's sister, Mildred, are brothers. They had the following children: Margaret, Samuel W., Mary Francis, Valentine, Joshua H., Willard, Mildred, Elizabeth and Martha Jane.

Sarah was born in 1808. I do not know anything else about her.

The Snow Family - Children of Thomas Snow and Winifred Jordan

As I mentioned in my previous post, Thomas and Winifred Jordan Snow had 7 children, all who are mentioned in their father's will: Sally, Mary, William, Henry, Thomas, Mark and John. I do not know the exact birth order for the children.
I will start with William. I do not have much on him. In Jackson County, Georgia there is a William Snow listed on page 89 of the 1809 Tax Digest. Mark Snow, William's brother is also found in this digest. Could William have moved with his brother Mark from Virginia to Georgia? It is possible, but without further record of William it is hard to know. Other Snows in the digest include a Moses and a Fountain Snow. Fountain is said to be Mark's oldest son and I have no idea who Moses is.
Next, we will look at Thomas Snow, Jr. Thomas served in the Revolutionary War under Capt. Benjamin Rice in the regiment of Col. Charles Lynch. His unit was in the Battle of Guilford Court House. Thomas was discharged on April 24, 1781. Thomas married Rachel Bennett on October 10, 1781 in Bedford County, Virginia. I have no proof of the children of Thomas and Rachel, but I have the following list: Vincent, Frances, Clarissa, Sarah, Thomas, Abner, Jabez, Jehu, Winifred and Samuel.
I know very little on John Snow, another son of Thomas and Winifred. In my notes I have that he died in 1894, but no other information is listed on him in my tree.
Mary Snow has been a bit tricky to research. I know she married a Bennett, but which one?! In my tree, I have Micajah Bennett (1755-1825) as her husband. This Micajah is the brother of Thomas's wife Rachel. He may, however, have been the Micajah Bennett that married Ann Johnson and had the following children: Jeptha Stephen and Jesse Johnson. He may have also been married twice, once to Ann and once to Mary. I need more records and research to know for sure. If Micajah and Mary are correct, the following children are recorded for them: Peter and Sarah Elizabeth. Other possible children for Micajah and Mary are Nancy, Polly, Micajah and William. Again, much more documentation is needed for this family.
Not much is known about Henry Snow. I have in my file that he married Martha Cheek and had 3 children: William, Joel and Mary. Again, no real proof.
Sally Snow is the second daughter of Thomas and Winifred. She married John Adams. John witnessed Thomas Sr's will. I have a partial transcript of John's will that lists the following children: Thomas, William, James, Winnifred Thomas, Polly Dalton, Peggy Leftwich, Sarah Weeks (should be Sinah), Sarah Leftwich, John and Milly. If anyone has a full transcript or copy of this will, I would love to see it!
I saved Mark Snow for last since he is my ancestor. I will type on his family in more detail on my next post.

The Snow Family - Henry Snow

I know it has been quite a while since I have posted on my blog. I have been really busy planning for the new baby (a girl) who will be here in May while also helping out a good bit with my grandmother and working.

My Snow family lineage begins with Henry Snow, born around 1705 in Virginia and died around 1778 in Bedford County, Virginia. There are many conflicting sources and information out there on Henry, but with such a common name, I am not surprised. I do not yet claim Henry has absolute fact since I cannot really pinpoint who he actually was. I have this note in my files on Henry, "it is assumed that Henry Snow lived on the north side of the Stauntan River near what is now called Leasville, Virginia. Henry had served in the French and Indian war and for his service in 1765 he recieved a grant of land of 410 acres there." I do not know who sent this to me or where the information is from, but if anyone knows, please let me know!
According to what I have in my files, Henry's wife was named Mary. No one can seem to agree on her maiden name. They had four children: John, Thomas, Jane and Dorothy. Again, I have no documents on this information, but from looking at research done by others and comparing them together, this is what I feel is most accurate at this time. Of course, if anyone has documents to prove or disprove ANY of this, please let me know.
I do know one thing. John, son of Henry was NOT John "Trooper" Snow. John "Trooper" Snow was much older than John son of Henry, but so many researches want to make him Henry's son. I have a note in my file stating that John was named administer of his father's estate, but just which John out of the vast majority of John Snows in that area was this John? I have not proof of the two daughters, and have not actually seen a copy of the estate records for Henry Snow, perhaps they are listed there? I do not know. I would love to see a transcript or copy if anyone has one.
The second son of Henry and Mary is Thomas Snow. He would be my ancestor. Again, I have no proof of his parentage. Thomas married Winifred Jordan. Even though the vast majority of researchers say Winifred's maiden name was Jordan, none have offered proof of this, nor have I found any. I have a transcript of Thomas's will. It lists wife Winifred, daughters: Sally Adams and Mary Bennett, and sons: John, William, Thomas, Henry and Mark. I personally do not know anything on the personal lives of these people, just the facts. I really do feel as though Thomas Snow (who married Winifred) and Dorothy Snow are siblings, since Dorothy's husband was a witness to Thomas's will. I cannot prove the relationship (just like I cannot prove they are children of Henry and Mary), but it seems highly possible.
I will stop here for now and start on the children of Thomas and Winifred in my next post.
