Has anyone ever found Isaac & Nancy(Haywood)Ferguson's children other than Joel?
It is possible that some of their children might be:
Joel b. abt 1780 m. Elizabeth Sloan m. 4 Jan 1806 Halifax Co. VA
Dougald G. b. 1792 m. Nancy Dyer 2 Sept 1820 Williamson Co. TN
Thorton James b. 1795 m. Elizabeth Shannon 7 Dec 1818 Williamson Co. TN
James b. 1805 m. Tabitha Dyer 13 Dec 1823 Williamson Co. TN
Nancy b. ? m. John Thompson 16 Oct 1823 Williamson Co. TN
George b. abt 1810 (1830 Williamson Co census)
Jacob H. b. abt 1810 (1830 Williamson Co census)
Edmond b. abt 1810 (1830 Williamson Co census)
We know that Dougald and James are brothers and married Dyer sisters.1830 James was living next door to George and 2 doors away from Lavina Dyer mother of Nancy and Tabitha.
1820 census for Williamson Co. TN
Isaac
Joel
James
Dougald married Nancy Dyer 1 month after the 1820 census was taken, so he could still be at home with Isaac & Nancy.
Dougald was a minister and in 1830 he and Nancy were living in Rutherford Co where he married Nancy's brother Isiah Robert Dyer.James and George were living close to Lavina Dyer. Dougald and James later moved to Henderson Co. TN and finally to Lake Co.
Some time ago there was a posting by Mary Pallon that she had a copy of a family bible that showed children of Isaac and Nancy, does anyone have more info on that?
It just seems a good possibility these are some of the children but no proof of course.Any info would really be great!
