Calphurnia East [E13a1e2], daughter of Tarlton East and Sally Coffee, was born 12 September 1822 in VA, probably in Campbell Co. Her name was probably California East (see daughter Jennie T West's biography), but so often over the years her name was spelled as shown here,and it became permanent. In Campbell Co in 1840 there were only three East families. Two lived in the southern district (Thomas East and an unidentified East) close to the Pittsylvania Co border, and Tarlton lived in the Lynchburg area in the north end of Campbell Co. Of these three East families, Tarlton was the only one who had a teenage daughter in his home in 1840 who was age 18. And in 1830 there was only one East family: Isaac East, and in his home in 1830 there was no daughter age 8, and in 1840 Isaac and his family lived in Charlotte Co. Hence Calphurnia East must have been Tarlton's daughter.
She married John A West in Campbell Co VA on 16 March 1847 and in 1850 they lived in Campbell Co; in 1860 they lived in Pittsylvania Co. John was born in VA on 9 May 1823, son of Jesse West and Mary Willard. Note that Calphurnia is a rare name, and Tarlton East lived in Campbell Co in 1840 and 1850, and he had a sister named Caleth East (short for Calphurnia?), born in 1784. In 1870 John and Calphurnia lived in Jackson Co MO, and in Lafayette Co in 1880, then at Jackson, Johnson Co in 1900. Calphurnia and John had a grandaughter who lived with them in 1900: Dora Null, born in January 1879 in MO, daughter of Virgina T West. Calphurnia died at Jackson in the 1900s, and John then moved in with his daughter Mary F and her husband Samuel Tipton. John died 7 September 1912 at Jackson and was buried at Greenton. He and Calphurnia had at eight children by 1900, with five still living; all were born in VA in Campbell Co or in Pittsylvania Co. The three youngest daughters were the three who had died by 1900-

Chandler was probably a son of William East Sr; all other male East men in Stokes and Surry Counties NC in 1790 had sons who can be identified, or were not sons of Chandler's age. In William's home in 1790 there were four males of age 16 or older, and one under age 16. Of William's sons in 1790, Joseph, Thomas, and Isham were already married and living close by. Still in his home were sons William (born 1773), and two more sons not yet identified. One must have been Chandler, the younger son; there was no other older male in the area who could be his father. Chandler appeared to have married about 1804 and had seven children by 1820, but in the 1830 census the first five children were gone, and five were born after 1820-

In 1820, the only Linville family in Surry Co was John Linville, and he was of age to be Hiram's father; in his home in 1820 there were two sons of Hiram's age. In 1830 John Linville lived a few doors from Hiram and Charity. Hiram and Charity moved to Indian Creek, Monroe Co IN after their first child was born (and died?), by the early 1830s. Hiram was born in NC in 1808 (age 42 in 1850, 55 in 1860, 67 in 1870). They remained in Monroe Co until the 1850s, then moved to Clay, Owen Co by 1860; in 1860 the only child still at home was daughter Perlina. Charity and Hiram were at Harrison, Clay Co in 1870. There were three girls and two boys living with them in 1840 in Monroe Co, and another son born in the 1840s. All but the eldest boy were born in Monroe Co IN-
1. son Linville, b 1827-1830 in Surry Co NC, was gone from home (died?) by 1840. (240j)
2. Mahala Linville, b 1831
3. Mary Ann Linville, b 1834
4. John A Linville, b 1835
5. son Linville, b 1836-1840 in Monroe Co IN, was not in the 1850 census. (130k)
6. Julia Perlina Linville, b 1838
7. Jesse Walter Linville, b 8 May 1843
There was an older girl, born in the early 1820s, living with them in 1830 in Surry Co. In 1870 Rosa Linville lived with them; she was age 6, born in IN. (240hijm,130kn,366q,381r)
Charity East [E19a5f], daughter of Daniel Tann East and Elizabeth Anne Eubanks, was born in 1840 after the census (age 10 in 1850, born in AL; age 16 in 1860, born in GA) in Benton Co AL. (K,285n,47q)
Charles East was named on a 1787 Augusta Co VA Personal Property tax list. He owned a stud horse. There was a marriage in Augusta Co VA on 12 March 1791 between a Charles East and Elizabeth Lowedermilk, daughter of "Mickle Lowedermilk;" John Diddle provided the bond. And on 11 May 1826 there was a marriage in Augusta Co between a Charles East and Matilda Mayfield. The Augusta Co VA marriages with East people were very few. Those found, in addition to these two Charles East marriages, were: Mary East and John Beard on 11 Sep 1828; John H East and Mary Whitzell on 27 Dec 1849; and Elizabeth East and William King on 5 Oct 1826. There were only two East families in Augusta Co in 1840: Charles, and John. Charles was born in the 1790s; John was born in the 1800s, and his close neighbor was Nancy Diddle. This Nancy Diddle had children in her home under age 15, and she was born in the 1790s. In 1830 in Augusta Co there were two Charles East men. Charles C East lived in the southern part of the county and was born in the 1740s; the only female in his house was born in the 1770s, so could have been a daughter or Elizabeth Lowedermilk from the 1791 marriage. The younger Charles East was in the northern part of the county, and was born in the 1790s. There was also a David East in the southern part of the county, and he was married with children. David was born in the 1780s. Charles and David East were the only two East names in August Co in 1820; Charles lived in the Staunton district, and was born before 1776. He also had two young men in his home, a wife born before 1776, and four other females ranging in ages down to under age 10. David East's home had six men of adult age, but just one female born between 1795 and 1804. It is apparent that Charles C East was the progenitor of the Augusta Co East families. Charles East was in Augusta Co in 1810, born 1765 or before. His wife was the same age. He was the only East family.
From the above informatioon, and from the 1850 census, we know know that Elizabeth Loudermilk (Lowedermilk on the marriage record), was born in 1768 in PA. In 1850 she was living with William D Smith and his wife Sarah, both born 1805 in VA. They were family 1304 in district 2½. Charles had the following children (all were born in VA unless otherwise stated). And probably some of the daughters had "fudged" their ages a bit with the census taker; there were just too many children born in the 1790s and not enough born in the 1801-1810 years-

4. dau East, b 1795-1800 (1054hi) / Elizabeth East married William King on 5 October 1826 in Augusta Co. There were two William King families in 1830 Augusta Co; each had a wife born between 1801 and 1810, and each family had two daughters under the age of 10. But one family lived in the county's southern district and also had an extra adult couple in the household, while the William King family in the northern district only had William, his wife, and the two daughters. Both Williams were about the same age as his wife. Augusta Co had four William King families in 1840. In 1850, there was an Elizabeth King, apparently a widow, living in district 2½, family 1310; Elizabeth's mother was family 1304. This Elizabeth was born in 1805 (age 47 in 1860, so born 1803). In 1860 she lived with her daughter Charity and her husband. Elizabeth had seven children-

He was born in 1808 (42 in 1850, 54 in 1860, 64 in 1870). They lived in Augusta Co (dist 2, fam 1028 in 1850); in 1860 they were in district 1, and in 1870 they were at Rivershead. Their children were-
a. Elizabeth Beard, b 1830 (1054nq)

There was another early East marriage in Augusta Co: Nancy East, daughter of James East. James put up the marriage bond for the marriage of his daughter on 9 January 1798 with Timothy Hartigan. James could easily be a son of Charles C East and Charles' first wife. Nancy East was born in 1778, and Timothy was born in 1768 in Ireland. In 1850 they lived in Augusta Co district 2½, family 1452. Because Nancy was born in 1778, then James must have been born in 1860 or before. (M16, JE,W,1054hijkm)
Charles East, probably a son of James East and Mary Ann ____ (who lived next door to Charles in 1870, and who were born in England in 1816 & 1814), lived in St Francois Co MO in 1900 with his wife Elizabeth A Cherry. Charles was born in England in June 1844 and came to the US via Canada. Elizabeth was born in MO of an Irish father in March 1848.

Charles Asbury East [E23b2b], son of Albert Alonzo East and Sarah Caroline Majors, was born 22 April 1878 in Roane Co TN. He moved with his parents to Coalgate, Oklahoma Indian Territory in 1893. When the Spanish-American war broke out, Charles returned to Roan Co and enlisted in Co M, 3rd TN Volunteer Infantry. He was stationed in the Philippines; while stationed there in April 1900, he stated for the census that his home town was Phillips, Indian Territory (located in Coal Co when that county was formed in 1907). After being discharged, he returned to Roane Co and married Katie M Hamby in 1902. She was born in Roane Co in 1882. About 1907 he and his family had moved to Calhoun Co AL, at West Anniston, and soon after they moved to Glencoe, Etowah Co AL where he became the superintendent (and later, the owner) of a stone quarry. This job was experience he learned in OK from working the coal mines there, starting from the age of 16, with his lifelong friend Patrick Hurley. Later, sometime after September 1918, he became postmaster of Glencoe and held that position until 1936. Charles was a wealthy business man, and returned much of his wealth back into the community. During the Great Depression, he even paid the salaries of the local school teachers when there was not enough local funds to do so. His wife Kate died 22 November 1924. Charles then married Josie Lee Wakefield of Albertville, AL about 1925, and they had four more children. She was born 17 October 1898.

Charles Hardin East [E1b4h2], son of John Harston East and Rebecca Angeline Ross, was born in May 1857 in Maury Co TN. He was just seven years old when he was adopted by Rebecca and her husband Jack. His first years were spent in Maury Co between Mount Pleasant and Columbia. When he was adopted his new parents were living in Wayne Co TN, but they soon moved near Savannah in Hardin Co, and lived northeast of town about two miles. When Charlie was a teenager, he and a friend were sitting under an apple tree during a lightning storm. A bolt hit both of them, killing Charlie's friend, and passing through Charlie's arm.
Charlie married Janie Sloan in Hardin Co on 5 January 1890. She was born in April 1871 in TN, daughter of Alexander Sloan and Mary Matilda Goff.

Charles Hardin East's original father was Harmon W Smith, born in 1803 in VA. Harmon may have married at least two times, Charlie's original mother being the second wife, Sarah J _____, born about 1822 in TN. She died between 1858 and 1860, and in 1860 Harmon can be found living with many of his children in district 20 of Maury Co; he was in Maury Co in 1850 also, with Sarah J. In 1860, it seems that Harmon had his hands full with a large motherless family, so three of the younger children were living with R F Matthews (age 57, born in NC) and wife Sarah E _____ (age 55, born in KY). This couple could likely be Charlie's grandparents, parents of his original mother Sarah J. The three children with the Matthews family were Albert N Smith (age 7), Robert W Smith (age 5), and Charles S Smith (age 4). This Charles Smith was the only one in Maury Co where Harmon was living in 1860 who could be the future Charles Hardin East. When the Civil War reached Maury Co, Harmon was taken away by the Union soldiers. He eventually died 4 March 1873 at Carter's Creek Station. (M77,M35,CE, Z,10nq,9rsmuvc)

Cicero died in AL on 7 June 1893 and was buried in High Pine Church Cemetery about 5 miles southwest of Roanoke. He served in the Alabama Company I with his brothers Silas and Henry on the Confederate side. From the cluster of graves with Cicero's, it appears that he married late in life to Mary U _____. She was born 9 June 1862 and died 19 May 1949. After Cicero died, Mary then married Cicero's nephew James H East [E19a2a4], son of Benjamin Franklin East, about 1894. See his biography.. Mary was buried with Cicero;.they had no children. She was perhaps buried with Cicero if she had bought two grave sites when Cicero was buried, not realizing that she would marry again. Next to Cicero's grave are many other East graves; one is Samantha (born 1840 and titled "Sister"), one is for William Z (born 1890); one is Mary U (born 1862 and titled "Mother"); four are unnamed and are infants sons of W.

In 1820 Neal lived in the Crab Orchard community. Neal East witnessed the 26 December 1816 will of Joseph Welsh in Lincoln Co, and Neal left a will in Lincoln Co dated 14 March 1820 in which he named sons Josiah and Nimrod as executors, but did not name any other family members by name. The will strongly indicated that there were other children in addition to the two sons mentioned, and that some of them were under age 21 and not married. Neal died soon before 12 March 1821 when his will was probated. He was on Lincoln Co's tax lists of 1790 and 1800, and owned 86 acres along the Green River near Green Lick in 1810. (This places his home about 20 miles southeast of Cincinnati, OH, in what is now a much smaller Lincoln Co. See the 1786 Virginia Map.)
There was a marriage between a Cornelius East and Mary Hannah in Rockbridge Co VA on 3 November 1791; the bond was posted on 1 November by David Edmundson, and witnesses were Thomas and Samuel Ratliff. Mary Hannah's mother was Susannah Burtain. Also, a "Neal" East was named on a Rockbridge Co Personal Property tax list in 1787, owning a horse (see Josiah East [E4c1a3]). Because of a scarcity of the Neal / Cornelius name in these years, it is highly likely that this was the same Neal East found in Lincoln Co KY in the early 19th Century. Rockbridge Co is in present day west central VA, about three counties west of Louisa Co VA and two counties east of the VA-WV border.
Cornelius of Lincoln Co KY, in 1820, had by then grown children who had their own homes near Neal in Lincoln Co. There were no East women as head of the homes in Lincoln Co in 1830 after Neal died, so his wife either died or moved to MO with her children in the 1820s after Neal died. In 1840, the only East name in Lincoln Co was James East, living alone, and was born in the 1780s.
Neal had two known sons, and definitely about twelve to fourteen children. In 1810, his children could only be age 19 or younger. The 1810 census showed Neal with eight sons or young men (five age under 10), plus three daughters or young females in his home. In addition to a wife born in the 1766-1794 years, there was a second woman of the same age range living with Neal; the second woman could easily be Neal's sister or his wife's sister-
a. Josiah East, b abt 1792 <–1810 census at home, age 16-25
b. Joseph East, b 1793 <–1810 census at home, age 16-25
c. dau East, b 1795-1800 in Lincoln Co KY. <– She was one of two daughters age 10-15 in 1810. There was a Hannah East who married George Brock in Lincoln Co on 8 April 1816; in 1820 they lived close to John Inyard. George was born 1795-1816; his wife was the same age. George and his wife lived 14 doors from Neal East. They had no children by 1830, and were still in Lincoln Co. (John Inyard was older than age 45; see Josiah East.) And there was Elizabeth East, born 5 July 1795 who married Joseph Holliday on 31 October 1837 in Monroe Co MO. (W,124hijmn)
d. Nimrod East, b abt 1796 <–1810 census at home, age 10-15
e. Eleanor East, b 4 Aug 1798 <–1810 census at home, age 10-15
f. David East, b 1801 <–1810 census at home, under age 10
g. John Jehu East, b 13 July 1802 <–1810 census at home, under age 10
h Given East, b abt 1804 <–1810 census at home, under age 10
i. dau East, b 1805-1810 <– She was the only daughter under age 10 in 1810. A Ms Susannah M East married George Eubanks in 1836. In 1840 George was in Lincoln Co, born 1811-1820; his wife was the same age. Also, Mary H East married Martin Snow in 1835, and Mary East married Levi McFall in 1837. Martin Snow had many children by 1840, and was born in the 1790s. Levi McFall lived in Johnson Co MO in 1840 and was born 1810-1820; his wife was either dead, or was born 1826-1830. (124him,524k)
j. Alexander East, b 3 Dec 1809 <–1810 census at home, under age 10
k. Bailey East, b 1810 <–1810 census at home, under age 10. Could this be Isaac Bailey East, born in 1810?
m. son East, b 1811-1820 / A Constantine East married America Curtis in 1846. (124im)
n. son East, b 1811-1820 in Lincoln Co KY. / An Isaac East, born in KY in 1810, was living with Lucy Ann East, a daughter of Givens East, in Butler Co OH in 1860. And, Isaac East married Nancy Ellis in Ripley Co IN on 12 January 1826. (124i,737q)
p. Susannah M East, b 1820
In 1810 in Lincoln Co, there was a Joseph East in addition to Neal East. Joseph's age was about Neal's age, but his wife was older than Neal's wife. This Joseph was Neil's brother whose name was actually Josiah, but to differentiate himself from his father, usually used the Joseph name. Joseph's children were a few years older than Neal's children; Joseph had one daughter under age 10, and two sons age 10 to 15. All remaining children were older. Lincoln Co has a 1794 marriage record of Eleanor East to William Brown; she would be of Neal's age, so was likely his sister. There was a marriage between Isaac East and Anne Kendrick in 1801. Another marriage was between John East and Sophia Whittle in 1800. North East, Neal's eldest brother, married Karen Habuch Payton in 1786, and married Elizabeth Dickerson in 1810. Mary East, Neal's youngest sister, married Absolem Estrange in 1801.
Living twelve doors from Neal in 1820 in Lincoln Co KY was George Edwards, future father-in-law of Neal's son Jehu; Nimrod East next door to Neal, born 1795 to 1804; David East five doors away, born about 1802; Joseph East next to Joseph, born 1776 to 1794. And in another community, Stanford, was another Joseph East, living alone and born between 1776 and 1794 (the same Joseph?).
In Rockbridge Co VA, Susannah Hannah married Robert Edmundson with William Ramsay as bondsman, and David Templeton & Isabel ("Isble") Ratliff as witnesses. The bond was posted on 6 September 1790. Susannah's mother was Susannah Buntain. (M16,L,M92,M52,JA,124i, 127m)
Cornelius East [E4c6c3d3], son of Nimrod East and Martha Patsy Skidmore, was born in Limestone Co KY on 10 May 1819; his Cemetery stone gave his death date, and said he was age 72Y 10M 16D. He married Eleanor "Ellen" George in Henry Co MO on 18 January 1844. She was born in VA 26 August 1816. By 1845 Cornelius owned 45 acres in Henry Co and was a farmer, and by 1850 and 1860 they had three children. Cornelius died on 26 March 1892 and was buried in Good Hope Cemetery in Bethlehem Twp in Henry Co. His wife Ellen died on 3 January 1898 and was also buried in Good Hope Cemetery; her gravestone said she was "81Y 4M 8D." Their three known children were-

Crockett T East [E13a1k6], son of Anderson R East and Mary A Goings, was born 15 October 1838 in Delaware Co IN. When the Civil War broke out, Crockett joined the Union Army as a sergeant on 21 July 1861 at the age of 22. He was, at that time, a resident of Selma, Delaware Co. He served in Company K, 19th Infantry Regiment Indiana, and was promoted to Full Lieutenant 2nd Class on 24 April 1863. He earned a Distinguished Service citation. Crockett was killed in action on 1 July 1863, the first day of the Battle of Gettysburg. Crockett was burie din Truitt Cemetery southwest of Selma, Delaware Co where his parents and many siblings were buried. In this three day battle, which was the turning point in the outcome of the Civil War, there were over 7,800 men killed, 40% from the Union side. (M,W,781knqc)

They had four or five children-
1. Martha E Wilson (dau), b Apr 1910 at Westfield, Surry Co. She was not found with her parents in 1920, so probably died in Surry Co in the 1910s, or else this was actually son Bernie who first appeared in the 1920 census. (240v)

The surety for the second marriage was paid by Neal East, Daniel David East's uncle, and witnesses were Josiah East, another uncle, and Neal East. Polly was under age, so her father Robert King signed a consent letter for her. Polly was born in Lincoln Co in 1798 (age 52 in 1850). Daniel East (Daniel David? or an uncle Daniel?) served with his father in the War of 1812 in Captain Micah Taul's Company from Wayne Co in 1812.

This Benjamin Hiatt was the father of Benjamin Hiatt Jr and Albert Hiatt who married Sarah Ann East in Lincoln Co.

Darius East [E14a4d], son of Silas East and Harriet Canty Houze, was born in 1834 in Clarke Co GA. He lived in Walton Co GA, the county just southwest of Clarke Co, and married three times. The first wife was Harriet A Norris, married on 7 August 1856; the second wife was Martha Mise, married on 31 July 1860 in Walton Co; and the third wife was Martha F Wilson, married on 29 June 1869, and divorced on 16 February 1885. Harriet must have died in the late 1850s because Darius was living with D H Walker’s family at Walton, GA in 1860, without a wife. During the Civil War, Darius was in Company F, 16th Georgia Infantry. Company F was the men from Walton Co. After the war he worked as a ditcher.

She was born in OH in 1838 and probably died within four years because David married Mary L Burnett in Delaware Co on 14 December 1862. David was a merchant.

David C East [E11b], son of William East from VA and Drucilla ____ from KY, was born in 1837 in Centre Twp, Wayne Co IN and grew up in DeWitt Co IL. He married Laura W Laborance in DeWitt Co IL on 21 August 1872. They lived at Howard, Bates Co MO in 1880. Laura was born in Sangamon Co IL in September 1854, daughter of Adam Laborance from Germany and Charlotte R Dodge from NY, and was a sister of Charlotte Laborance (born NY in late 1849) who married David's brother Henry on the same day. David died by 1900 and Laura remained in Bates Co, at West Point until 1900, but in 1902 she remarried, and within the next eight years she moved to Seattle, WA. Her children and her brother-in-law Rush had all moved to the Pacific Northwest also. Laura's next husband was Edgar W Swan, a house carpenter. He was born in IL in 1842. This was his second marriage also. Laura and Edgar were not found after 1920, so probably both died at Seattle in the 1920s. She and David had five children-
1. Laurence Justin East, b 23 Sep 1874
2. Edward E East, b Feb 1877
3. Anna D East, b Jun 1882

Adam Laborance, born 1812 in Ireland, lived with his wife Charlotte R Dodge at Bethlehem, Albany Co NY in 1850. Their children then were Rachael, age 3, Charlotte, age 9/12, plus older children with a Capron family name from Charlotte's prior marriage. Adam and Charlotte apparently moved to central IL in the early 1850s with their (then) three Laborance children (son John was born in Albany Co in 1851), where they had daughters Laura and Annie Laborance. Illinois marriage records for the Laborance daughters consistently showed that the mother's name was Charlotte R Dodge. Adam died by the late 1860s and his widow Charlote then married for a third time, using the name Charlotte R Laborance, to Jacob Willis in Sangamon Co IL on 29 June 1869. And as often happens when a parent marries again and there are prior children involved, the prior children choose to live with elder siblings instead of with the new step-parent; daughter Charlotte Laborance, in 1870, lived with her half-sister Catherine Capron and Catherine's husband Jacob Parlier. Two years later Charlotte Laborance married Edward H East. Charlotte Dodge's daughter Annie E Laborance married Charles V Durgy in Sangamon Co IL on 17 February 1875. Son John Laborance married Caroline Lyman Pursell in Sangamon Co on 21 September 1886. No IL marriage record for Rachael, the eldest Laborance child, was found. Of the children from Charlotte Dodge's first marriage, Catherine Capron married Jacob Parlier in Sangamon Co on 14 Apr 1858.
About the country of birth of Adam Laborance: The 1850 census of Albany Co NY said he was from Ireland. Children John (born 1851), Laura (born 1854), and Annie (born 1856) in later census records show that their father was born in Germany, and John in 1880 and 1920 said his father was from France. Since Adam died when the children were probably no older than young teens, their memories may not be accurate. Actually, "Adam Laborentz" age 20, arrived New Your Harbor on 16 October 1833 on the ship Albany The port of departure was Harve (Hamburg), but Adam's birth place was Bavaria, which is now a state in southern Germany (where Munich is). After being in the USA where German pronunciation and spelling is rarely ever correct, the name got corrupted to Laborance.
Edgar Swan had a son from his first marriage: Fred Burton Swan, born 28 May 1876 in IL and lived at Seattle from at least 1920. He died there 11 February 1942. He was a shoe salesman. (WAd,M, 231R,52k, 167m,685nqm,745su,731vw)

After he died, Janie and her younger children lived at Marion, next door to daughter Eva.
Many of the following birth dates were recorded and passed on to heirs, but years after the births happened. Otherwise, if birth dates were recorded as they happened, such as in a bible record as the event happened, we would have the dates accurate to the day. But many dates must have been done from memory since only the year was written down for most of the older children, and memories sometimes fail. In all, David and his three wives had 32 children-

David Smith East [E4c6c3h1], son of Given East and Elizabeth Edwards, was born in 1823 in Lincoln Co KY and grew up in Ripley Co IN. He married Mary Callicott in Ripley Co on 25 February 1847. She was married before because there were two older children in their home in 1850 (using the East name). Mary was born in IN in 1822, daughter of Wesley Griffith. In 1850 David lived next door to his widowed mother and younger siblings. He and Mary had a son-
a. George Alexander East, b Dec 1849 (507n)
Mary's children from her marriage with Wesley Collicott in Ripley Co on 20 Dec 1838 were Emily Griffith, born 1839, and William Anderson Griffith, born 1841. (W,507kmn)
David William East [E4a3a6d1d7], son of Thomas Benton East and Mary E Shields, was born on 23 November 1882 at Marshfield, Webster Co MO. He was named as a son in his father's 1897 pension application. In September 1918 he was a farmer in Kaufman Co TX and had married Ada May Clair in Webster Co on 2 January 1905. He and Ada moved to CA in 1935. Ada was born in MO on 30 April 1884, and died 22 August 1938. Dave lived at Modesto, CA in 1939 when his sister Lucy died. On a visit back to Springfield, David died there on 1 February 1953 of heart failure, and was a widower for the second time when he died. David was buried at Modesto, CA in Modesto Citizens Cemetery with Ada. The informant for his death certificate was Walter H East of Springfield; Walter did not know the name of his mother, yet she was alive when Walter was age 9. In 1910 he and his family lived in Haskell Co TX, and in 1920 David, Ada, and their four children lied in Kaufman Co TX. Apparently each time Ada was to give birth, they made a quick trip back to MO for the birth. In the 1940s David worked at French Camp, San Joaquin Co CA but lived at Salida, Stanislaus Co. Their children were all born in MO-
a. Virgil Thomas East, b 17 Aug 1905, grew up in TX, lived at Modesto, CA in the 1940s, and lived at Pittsburg, Contra Costa, CA in 1953, and died there on 7 March 1982. (M,N, CAd, 326v,337w)

Deborah A East [E4c6c5d5], daughter of Joseph East and Nancy Russell, was born in December 1826 in KY. She married George W Latimer on 3 March 1843. George was a carpenter and they lived in Boyle Co KY (two counties north of Adair Co). He was born in 1821 in KY, son of Samuel Latimer and Mary Daugherty. From the birth places of their children, it appears that George and Deborah moved to Palestine, Anderson Co TX in 1850 after the census was taken in KY. George was a mechanic at Palestine in 1860. He served in Company K, 15th Texas Cavalry during the Civil War on the Confederate side, but the scant military records for him do not indicate that he died during nthe war. Deborah was a widow in 1880 and was living with her two youngest sons at Palestine, Anderson Co TX.; in 1900 she lived with her daughter Mary at Houston (and was called a "daughter-in-law" to her 66 year old son-in-law). George must have died at Palestine, Anderson Co TX soon after 1860; in 1870 she was woreking as a seamstress at in Anderson Co, and was by then without a husband. The Houston City Directory of the mid-1890s showed "Debora A Latimer, widow of George W" and she was living with Joseph W Davis. Joseph W Davis, born in KY in 1842, lived next door to Deborah's daughter Mary at Houston in 1900. George and Deborah had four children by 1850, then seven by 1860-
a. Mary C Latimer, b Jul 1845. She married William L Davis in 1870 and they lived at Houston, TX. William was born in (Lafayette Co?) MO in February 1834 (or in TX per 1880 census). Their two sons were born at Houston-
1. William T Davis, b May 1877 (241su)
2. Philip Eugene Davis, b 4 May 1880, was an auto painter at Houston in September 1918. His wife was probably Mary Lou _____. (M,241su) (504n,241su)

e. Warren Latimer, b 1851 at Palestine, Anderson Co TX, was age 29 and a grocer in 1880 at Palestine. In 1860 the census shows him to be son D B, age 8, and in 1870 he was Warren, age 10. In 1900, still at Palestine, he was age 38 and born in September 1861. (1031qrsu)
f. G W Latimer, b 1857 at Palestine, Anderson Co TX, was James M in the 1870 census, age 13. (1031qr)
g. G M "Cupid" Latimer, b 1859 at Palestine, Anderson Co TX, was a painter in 1880 at Palestine. He was not shown in hjis mother's home in 1870, so must have been living with relatives. In 1900 he was named Capeia Latimer, still in Anderson Co, age 40, and born in December 1859 in TX. (1031su)
In 1850 Deborah's 19 year old brother Joseph was living with them, probably to learn the carpentry trade. (M,504n,1031qs,241Pu)
Delano Flint "Delanie" East [E19e1c2], son of Daniel Webster East and Mildred Brannon, was born 13 September 1880 in Jackson Co AL. He married Minnie Lee Broach (or Jacks?) on 3 February 1912 at Ensley, Jefferson Co and they lived at Birmingham in 1918. Delaney was a machinist for a chemical plant and for a steel plant. This appeared to be Minnie's second marriage. In 1930 they lived at Birmingham and the census taker mistakenly put their family name as Flint (census page 180A, family 316). Minnie was born in 1892 in GA and died in 1964. Delanie died in July 1963. Minnie and Delanie had five children, all born in Jefferson Co AL-

Dicey East [E19a1], daughter of Stephen East and Desa _____, was born in 1802 in Spartanburg Co SC and grew up there and in Jackson Co GA. She married James Loggins Jr in 1825 at Pickersville, SC. James was born about 1799 and grew up in South Carolina, a son of Samuel Loggins who also moved to GA when James and Dicey did. James also used the name John and James Logans in order to avoid the federal troops who were always gathering up stray Cherokee who hadn't already been captured and forced to OK. James served in the South Carolina militia during the War of 1812. (This war took place during the years 1812 thru 19814.) In his application for a veteran's pension he described a march from SC to Mobile, AL where he said he was discharged. When gold was discovered in GA in 1828, people from all parts of the US began migrating to the Georgia Blue Ridge in what was the first US gold rush (these prospectors were known as 29ers, the first use of a term that would later be applied to the 49ers of California). This is about the time that many of the South Carolina Loggins families moved into GA. James and Dicey were among them. They settled in what was then Habersham Co (later White Co).
When the Cherokee were being removed, Dicey's father and two of his sons, Pinckney and Zealous, moved to Alabama with a band of Indians led by a chief named "King" Solomon Ray. When a Cherokee married, the man would become part of the band to which his wife belonged. Dicey never heard from her father again after his eviction from Hall Co, and his move to Troup Co in western GA. Dicey was never enrolled as an Indian; her husband refused to allow her to admit that she was Indian, and in 1851 this caused a permanent rift between them. He felt that having her name on a government roll would mean being forcibly taken away like the group that were moved west. Later, when benefits were made available to the Eastern Cherokee, it was impossible for her descendants to prove any connection to the tribe. Her grandson, John Loggins, diligently tried to provide proof of his Indian ancestry. His Cherokee claim file is filled with sworn testimonies from people who had personally known Dicey and knew of her Cherokee parents. One such affidavit states that Dicey wanted to get on the rolls but her husband, James, would not allow it. He said he was in enough trouble with his family for marrying an Indian and he didn't want to cause more. The testimony goes on to state "and there was no more peace between them."
They lived in Hall Co GA two doors from Dicey's father in 1830 and next to James' father, and in 1840 were still in Hall Co. In 1840 their close neighbors were three other Loggins families, the John Miller family, and the Tailor Armour (written as "Talor Armer") family. After many of Dicey's siblings moved to Troup Co GA and to eastern AL, she and James settled on a ridge above the Chestatee River south of Three Sisters Mountain in Lumkin Co. They lived in Habersham Co in 1850 and in White Co GA in 1860; these are the three counties north of Hall Co GA. (White Co was formed in 1857 from the western half of Habersham Co.) James was born in SC in 1799, and was age 20 to 29 in 1830, age 30 to 39 in 1840, 44 in 1850, 60 in 1860, 80 in 1870, and age 81 in 1880. His elder daughters also weren't very consistent when they gave their ages to the census takers. Hence, we can only estimate the birth dates of many of the children. In the 1830 census the children were one boy and one girl, both under the age of 5; in 1840 the children were the boy, now age 10 to 14, a daughter age 10 to 14, with two new daughters age 5 to 9, and the two youngest daughters under age 5. That made six children. By the time the 1850 census was taken, only the daughters remained at home, and son William lived nearby with his wife. In 1860 two daughters remained at home, while the other four children had married and lived on their own. It appears that the ages of daughters shown in the 1850 census gives us the most information, but the 1860 census actually gives us their more (accurate) names: S (Sarah) was age 20; R (Rebecca) was age 18, E (Elizabeth) was age 16, N (Nancy) was age 14, and E (Eliza) was age 12. At home in 1860 were Sarah and Rebecca, which gives us the names found for the two initials S & R in the 1850 census; Sarah was now age 25, and Rebecca was age 24. Nancy was age 21 living with her husband in 1860; in 1870 her age was 24, ten years under the truth, and she lived next door to her parents in White Co. Her sisters Sarah, age 35, Rebecca, age 33, and Elizabeth, age 31 were again living with their parents. Dicey died in Walton Co GA on 22 November 1905. They had at least five children, all born in GA-
a. dau Loggins, born about 1826, died in the 1830s in Hall Co GA. This girl is not Sarah nor Rebecca since those two sisters consistantly gave their ages over the census years to show both were born in the 1830s. This was an elder daughter born in the late 1820s, according to the 1830 census. Since Dicey and James didn't marry until 1825, and son William was born in 1828, it would be likely that a child would have been born before William, about 1826. She died in the 1830s. (JY,250jk)

Drucilla Emma East [E4a3a6d1m], daughter of Shadrack Monroe East and Jane Catherine Warren, was born in 1858 in Webster Co MO. By 12 September 1876 she had not married since she was called Emma East in her father's estate records then. (M92,BP,JA, 59r)
Drury East [E4c3a3d], son of Isham East and Mary Eades, was born 30 March 1789, and died in Grayson Co VA on 18 March 1820. He was not found on any 1820 census and probably had no children. He lived in Grayson Co as an adult. Drury wrote his will on 8 March 1820, so he probably knew he was going to die soon. His grandmother Fanny East and brother William East were two of the executors of Drury's estate in April 1820. His estate was finally settled on 15 February 1826 at the home of Eli Cock. At that time William East and Thomas Baldwin were the acting executors. In Drury's will, he named George W Hill, his sister "Elizabeth East," and "Lusinda Eads." Drury also declared his "brother" William East and his "sister" Elizabeth East as Executors.
There was a Drury East who supplied liquor for the estate sale of William Moore in Patrick Co VA, and was paid for the liquor on 15 December 1825; the actual estate sale was on 28 June 1819. William East was also at that sale. In the November 1821 court in Patrick Co, still concerning the William Moore estate, the accounting shows that the estate received "Rent of place where Drury East lived that was called McCCraw's place to Drury East." This short sentence implied that Drury East no longer lived there (or no longer lived). (W,1043p,30p)
Drury East [E4a3a3a3], son of John East and Mary Johnson, was born in Patrick Co VA in 1815 (age 30 in 1850, 45 in 1860, 53 in 1870). Drury was probably a brother of Elizabeth East, born 1812, who married George Martin Nelson and of Isom East, born 1817. All three of these East people were born in VA, lived for a while in NC, moved to Wythe Co in the 1840s, and lived there into the 1850s or later. Drury had married Nancy _____ in 1842. Nancy was born in NC in 1824, and since their eldest child was born in NC, they probably married in NC. They stayed in NC until about 1844, then moved to Wythe Co. Their son John attended the same school where children of his sister Elizabeth East attended, and they were all in the same classroom in 1851. Because the name Drury is relatively rare, and it appears that only descendants of Isham East [E4a3a3] and wife Mary Eads had sons with the Drury East name, then this Drury of Wythe Co would probably be one of Isham's descendants.
In 1860 Drury East (spelled Drewey East) and his family were living at Madison, Morgan Co IN. They had probably moved there in the early 1850s since the school records of son John were no longer found in Wythe Co after 1851. Drury died in the 1870s, probably in Morgan Co, and in 1880 Nancy was living at Indianapolis and was taking in laundry to make a living. She and Drury had at least five children-
a. John H East, b 1843 in NC, spent his childhood years in Wythe Co VA, then moved to Madison, IN when he was about 10 years old, and grew up there. In 1880 John lived with his widowed mother at Indianapolis and he worked as a carpenter. He was shown as being married then, not a widower, yet his wife was not found. John had a daughter who lived with him and his mother in 1880-
1. Nettie R East, b 1875 in IN. (383s) (1085n,377qr,383s)
b. Mary East, b 1845 in Wythe Co VA, probably married in Morgan Co IN in the 1860s. (1085n,377q)
c. James East, b 1849 in Wythe Co VA, died in the 1850s. (1085n)
d. William Washard East, b 1858 at Madison, Morgan Co IN. He married Mary M Vanblaricum on 26 November 1879 in Marion Co and they lived at Indianapolis. She was age 16 when married, so born about 1863 in IN (she claimed she was age 22 in 1880). (377qr,383ms)
e. Abner Bransom East, b 1862 at Madison, Morgan Co IN. (377r,383s)
Interesting note: When the list of children in school teacher Robert B Saferight's classroom was made in November 1851, they were not shown alphabetically, and hence Elizabeth East's and George Martin Nelson's two children were listed just before Drury's son John East, as if they were all from the same large family. In March 1854 Elizabeth's son Thomas East was shown in the class list, but John East, Drewry's son was not. In any case, since they were all in the same classroom in 1851, they probably all lived in the same neighborhood. (M,M59, 1085n,377q)
Druzella B East [E4c6c5k7b], daughter of James East and Rhoda G Searcy, was born in 1875 in Ohio Twp, Crawford Co IN. She was probably named after her aunt Druscilla Royal, wife of Benjamin East [E4c6c5k9]. Druzella B married Samuel Joseph Cox on 29 September 1895 in Crawford Co, and died in 1899 in Crawford Co. She was buried in East Cemetery at Cape Sandy. Her two children were living with her parents then, and Sam also lived with Druzella's parents James and Rhoda in 1900. He was born 28 November 1875 in IN, son of John H Cox (born in Switzerland) and Cynthia A Batman. Sam died 26 October 1944 in Crawford Co. Drucilla's two children were-
1. Flossie N Cox, b 13 Oct 1896, married James Berton Parr about 1915. In June 1917 they lived at Alton, Crawford Co. In 1920 they lived in Meade Co KY just south across the Ohio River from Crawford Co in early 1920. Bert was born at Alton, Crawford Co IN on 24 April 1889. Apparently life in KY was not to their liking; they were living back in Crawford Co within a short time, just five doors from Joseph W East [E4c6c5m1d]. Bert died at Leavenworth, Crawford Co in September 1979; Flossie died 28 September 1990. They are both buried in East Cemetery at Cape Sandy, Crawford Co. They had six children by 1930, all born in Crawford Co IN-
a. Imogene F Parr, b Apr 1916 (627w,625f)
b. Mary E Parr, b Jul 1918 (627w,625f)
c. Olive M Parr, b 1921 (625f)
d. Albert Damon Parr, b 14 Jul 1924, died 10 June 1943 and was buried in East Cemetery at Cape Sandy, Crawford Co. (625fc)
e. Bertie R Parr (dau), b 1927 (625f)
f. Frank Parr (dau), 1928 (625fc) (W,M,Z,625uvfc, 627w)
2. Albert Desoto Cox, b 19 Feb 1899. Albert lived with his East grandparents from 1900 to 1920; in September 1918 he was a factory worker at the Alton Canning Factory. Albert died 22 August 1986 at Leavenworth, Crawford Co and was buried in East Cemetery at Cape Sandy. In 1930 he was still living in the Ohio area and gave his profession as a river fisherman; he was then boarding with Frank East and Frank's wife Ethel. Albert was not married then. He later married Ethel Gast. (There is a grave in East Cemetery at Cape Sandy for an Ethel M Cox, born 1915, died 1963.) Albert and his wife had a daughter-
a. Barbara Cox (W)
Of all the East people living in this area of IN, only descendants of James East and Rhoda G Searcy have used Desoto as a middle name. (W,M,625uwfc)
After Druzella died, Samuel J Cox married Pearl Goodman on 23 May 1903 and they had a daughter, Gladys Cox, born in 1904. Pearl died and he married Elizabeth Bryant on 26 May 1912 and they had a daughter, Flora Belle Cox, born in 1915. Then Elizabeth died on 3 February 1927 and he married Alta East [E4c6c5k6e1] on 21 September 1931. Three of Sam's siblings married three East people. See the Hiram Batman file. (W,625sc)

In 1920 Mary's mother lived with them. In 1900 Edgar was a boarder in his future mother-in-law's home at Philadelphia, PA, and living in the same home was Edgar's future wife Mary, who was at that time a widow (Mrs Mary Atkinson). Edgar East was then a clerk. It does not appear that Mary and Edgar had children; she had none from her first marriage. It appears that she had died by 1925 since Edgar took an ocean cruise alone on the ship Fort St George to Bermuda. He arrived back at the port of New York on 13 August 1925. On the ship's register he gave his home address as a hotel at Richmond, VA. (M,376s, 1126qrs, 785u,231Rw)

Edith East [E4c6d], daughter of Joseph East and Mary _____ of Louisa Co VA, was born by 1768 when her father write his will, but she apparently had no adult children at the time. This indicates that she was born no sooner than around 1730. Actually, she was born about 1742 in Louisa Co and married Thomas Peers on 22 November 1759 in Goochland Co. She received her father's Negro man Harry in his 1758 will. As part of the will, Joseph said that if Edith dies with children under age, then Thomas Peers shall become owner of Harry until the children become of age. She and Thomas Peers had nine children, all probably born in Louisa Co-

Edith East [E13b], possibly a sister of Thomas East of Goochland Co VA, married Thomas Pierce in Goochland Co on 22 November 1760. The only evidence that Edith may be Thomas' sister is that they were married within nine years of each other in the same county, thus indicating that they were of about the same age and the same family. (JY, M94)
Edith "Edee" East married John Hales in Henry Co VA on 4 March 1783. (M94)
Edith Joyce East [E1d1a8c1], daughter of Robert Boone East and Roberta Mandlen, was born 23 February 1924 at Pontotoc, MS. She married Hasselle Hendon Whitworth on 5 April 1942. He was born 7 July 1925 in Pontotoc. They had two children-

Edith Lida East [E1b13i3], daughter of Joseph Fielding East and Emma Jane Anderson Webster, was born 29 November 1888 at Pima, Graham Co Arizona Territory, and died 27 November 1962. Social Security record show she died in January 1963, and was born 29 November 1888. She was buried in City Of Mesa Cemetery in an unmarked grave close to her husband Jasper Reese Boyle. Other researchers claim that Edith died 5 December 1903. There are just too many records available to show that this is wrong. Since birth records in AZ where Jasper and his wife Edith lived show that Jasper and Edith had three children between the years 1912 to 1920, then it is obvious that Edith did not die in 1903. Other researchers also claim that Jasper had first married Cora East, Edith's sister. This may be true; the birth years of the children involved would allow this.
Jasper Reese Boyle was born in UT on 27 June 1880, son of Henry Green Boyle and Arabelle McKinley, and died at Phoenix on 24 October 1958. He and edith had divorced before he died. "W Wayne Boyle (son) St College, PA" was the informant for his death certificate. In 1930, with Jasper still living, Edith claimed she was a widow and worked as a maid at Sunnyside, Maricopa Co. In 1910 Jasper R Boyle and his wife Edith lived in Graham Co with their first child. Edith was age 21 then, born in AZ. Other researchers show Edith East was born in AZ on 29 November 1886. Edith and Jasper were still in Graham Co in 1920. He was age 39 then, but his wife Edith was age 29, born in AZ. Over the years, Edith gave a wide range of birth years from her age at various times: She was age 13 in 1900, 21 in 1910; 22 in 1912; 26 in 1916; 29 in 1920; and 38 in 1930. Their four children were-
a. Dorothy Boyle, b Dec 1908 (age 1 4/12 in 1910, 12 in 1920). (311vw)

Edman East [E14d9], son of James East Jr and Mary Edwards, was born about 1810. He was remembered as Edman East two generations later. No information on Edman / Edmond / Edmund East who could be Edman was found. His birth date is only estimated from the order he was listed in written family records, even though no birth date was written down. (ST,JE)

Edna was the informant for her father's death certificate, and for her father-in-law. Jacob and Edna lived at Spruce in Bates Co where he was a merchant and a banker, but a farmer in the 1930s. He was born at White Oak, Henry Co MO in May 1875, son of Michael Kideisch and Christiana _____ from Germany. Edna and Jake had three chuiildrn, two by 1920, and all born at Spruce, Bates Co MO-

Edom East [E4c3a6c1], son of Joel East and Sarah Bulla, was born 17 June 1826 in Wayne Co IN. He married Zilla Reams on 5 March 1849 in Cass Co MI. In 1850 they were living a few doors from his parents, but between the Jefferson Osborn and Jonah Osborn families. Zilla was born in Michigan in 1831 (age 19 in 1850; 26 in 1860). In 1860 they lived close to his brother James W East, and his sister Susannah East and her husband Jefferson Osborn, at Calvin, Cass Co. Edom was a carpenter. Zilla died in 1865; Edom's wife in 1870 was Mrs Sarah J _____ Swinehart, born in MI in February 1837. Edom died 12 October 1897, and Sarah died in 1906.

Edward East Sr [E4c], son of Thomas East Sr of Henrico Co VA and Dorothy Thomas, was born perhaps around 1675; he rented 150 acres in Henrico Co in 1705 from her Majesty the Queen of England. Edward was a witness in Henrico Co to the will of John Woodson on 25 November 1715.
Edward left a will in Henrico Co dated 8 August 1734; the will went to probate on 2 February 1735, thus indicating that he died a few days before then. In the will he named six children. Witnesses to the will were William Porter Jr, John Porter, and Anne Porter. Edward could not sign his name and made an X. His wife was named the executrix, but was not named. In the will he gave: to son William, 1 shilling; to son Edward, "part of my land living on the north side of the run I live on;" to son Isham "the other part of my land, and negro after his mother's death. the first child of above negro to my daughter Mary;" to my two sons Tarlton and Joseph, the "rest of the estate after the death of their mother." Witnesses to the will were William Porter Jr, John Porter, and Ann Porter. The value of Edward's estate was £23/3/6.
There is a court record in Henrico Co of 3 March 1755 stating "we have assigned Elizabeth East, widow and relic of Edward East, dec'd, her full third of his lands." There were three Edward East men who could have had a wife living in 1755. But since Edward East dec'd had a wife alive 20 years after he died, then this widow Elizabeth East may have been quite a bit younger. She was not a widow of Edward East [E4c1a] since we know that his wife was Mary Hobson. And she could not have been a widow in 1736 of Edward Jr since he was living in March 1740 and was a member of Henrico Co Parish (William East was also mentioned at this time in the parish records). So widow Elizabeth East mentioned must have been the widow of Edward East Sr. The Henrico Parish Vestry Book records show that a disputed land boundary between Elizabeth East and Francis Gath was settled on 3 May 1736; Edward East Sr had died between his will date of on 8 August 1734 and when it went to probate on 2 February 1735. Hence, widow Elizabeth was the land owner by this date, otherwise the land would be described as Edward's land.
Edward's wife was Elizabeth Woodson, daughter of Robert Woodson and Elizabeth Ferris, and was born about 1680. Since Elizabeth and her two eldest sons were members of the Henrico Co Parish, it is likely that most children were also members while they lived in Henrico Co. Elizabeth's and Edward Sr's children were-
1. Edward East Jr, b 1690s-1710s
2. William East, b 1690s-1710s
3. Isham East, b 1690s-1710s
4 Mary East, b 1690s-1710s
5. Tarlton East, b abt 1706
6. Joseph East, b 1690s-1710s
Other people named in the Henrico Co Parish record books were the neighbors often named in deed records of Edward Sr and Thomas East Sr & Jr. (W,M85,M13, EP,M47,29p)
Edward East Jr [E4c1], son of Edward East Sr of Henrico Co VA, was born in the 1690s in Henrico Co VA. He owned land near the western run of Turkey Island Creek, land also next to Beverly Randolph and Robert Maddox, on 5 August 1744. Edward was named as an officiating member of Henrico Co Parish on 29 March 1740. Whether he had more than one child is unknown. There was a younger Edward East in Henrico Co, who was born about 1721, who must have been a son of one of the eldest two sons of Edward East Sr and his wife Elizabeth Woodson. He is here assumed to be a son of Edward Jr-
a. Edward East, b abt 1721 (EP,M15, M47,29py)
Edward East [E4c1a], probably a son of Edward East Jr of Henrico Co VA, was born about 1721 in Henrico Co. He married Mary Hobson by 1745. She was born about 1725. Edward left a will in Henrico Co dated 9 September 1753 and recorded (after Edward died) on 4 March 1754. In the will he left 50 acres to his son Jesse, and left 50 acres next to Jesse's inheritance. This land was next to land belonging to Jane Porter. He also named his wife Mary; her two brothers William and Benjamin Hobson were the executors. Witnesses to the will were Jane Porter, Charles Woodson, Robert Maddox, Thomas Jolly, and Sarah Warrener. The value of Edward's estate was £38/1/0. Edward and Mary had at least two sons. Since he died at an early age, he probably had few children. The two known children are-
1. Jesse East, b abt 1746
2. Benjamin East, b abt 1748 (L,29p)
Edward East [E4a3b1f4], son of Asa East and Charity _____, was born in 1836 in IL, but grew up in Lincoln Co MO. He married Phebe Lee Neal in Calhoun Co IL on 18 August 1856 when she was age 15. She also was born in IL, in 1841. (Calhoun Co is the county east of Lincoln Co.) In 1850 the only 9 year old Neal girl in either Lincoln Co and in Calhoun Co was Emily Neil in the Alexis & Rebecca Palmer home (ages 59 and 49, and born in KY and MO). Edward and Phebe had two children by 1860, both born in Lincoln Co-

He had not married by early 1910 and was still living with his parents until then. He apparently married Odeal M _____ after April 1910. His wife was born in 1887 in KS, and had married Henry W Stadler in 1917; Edward C East died in 1919 and was buried in Masonic Cemetery at Trinidad. Edward's two children were born in Las Animas Co CO-
1. Edward C East, b 27 Aug 1911, worked as a tramway conductor at Denver in 1930. He died in February 1974. (Z,716w,152f)
2. Woodrow O East, b 3 May 1913, died in February 1975. At San Diego, CA, Woodrow enlisted in the US Army on 18 March 1943, and was at that time divorced. (Z,M, 716w,152f)
Odeal had a daughter, Rosemary J Stadler, with her second husband Henry. Rosemary was born in September 1908. (W,715s,716uvw, 152f)
Edward E East [E11b2], son of David C East and Laura W Laborance, was born in February 1877 in Bates Co MO. In 1900 he was living at Howard, Bates Co away from his mother's home, but had not married. He was not found after then. (745su)
Edward H East [E23a4e], son of John William East and Clementine Virginia Underwood, was born 25 February 1892 at Glen Alice, Roane Co TN, and grew up in Roane Co (age 8 in 1900, 18 in 1910). He married Birdie May Palmer in Roane Co on 25 December 1911; "Ed East" and "Walter East" (Ed's brother) paid the marriage bond. Birdie was born 8 April 1894 in TN, and died 6 November 1914 at home at Eagle Furnace, Roane Co from typhoid fever. She was a daughter of James Milton Palmer and Nancy Ann Bales. Birdie was buried in Winton Chapel Cemetery in Roane Co. In June 1917 Ed worked at Chattanooga, TN for Southern RR as a carpenter in the Bridge & Building Department, but lived at Glen Alice, 4 miles southwest of Rockwood, Roane Co. His brother Alonzo also worked for the B&B Department. Edward's birth date was taken from his WW1 draft registration, but was corrected by a year. Census records always showed that he was born in 1892; the draft card said 1893. Ed mentioned in his draft registration that he had a child to support, but was single then. He died on 19 December 1917 in a mine accident at Catoose, Morgan Co (the county just north of Roane Co), and was taken back to Roane Co for burial with Birdie. Whomever supplied the personal information for his death record didn't know Ed's correct birth date, and said 1895. Hence that is the date on his gravestone. Families of Ed's siblings used Winton Chapel Cemetery in Roane Co as their family burial place. So Birdie's and Ed's graves were found there. Ed's child was not found with any of Ed's siblings in 1920, nor did the child's grandparents have a grandchild in their homes. But in the 1930 census, Ed's brother James had niece Dortha J East, age 16 (born 1914), living with him and his wife. This niece was-
1. Dortha J East, b 1914 in TN. In 1930 she lived with her uncle James A East and aunt Grace at Ross, Walker Co GA. (1293f)
Birdie's parents, James Milton Palmer and Nancy Ann Bales, were married in Roane Co on 10 November 1892. They were both buried in Winton Chapel Cemetery. James was born in TN on 29 Jan 1872 and died 23 Oct 1944; Nancy Ann was born in TN on 11 Nov 1870 and died 10 Oct 1917. (TBd,M,N, 19uvmc)
Edward Hazzard East [E4c1a2i7], son of Edward Hyde East and Cecelia Buchanan, was born 1 October 1831 in Davidson Co TN. He was graduated from Lebanon Law School in 1854 and practiced in Nashville from 1855. He was a TN politician and judge much of his life, and was a trustee of the University of Nashville and of Vanderbilt University. In 1892 he was the Prohibition candidate for governor of TN, but lost the election, receiving about two percent of the vote. In 1867 (married 32 years in 1900) he married Ida Tennie Horton of MS, widow of Gustavis Ward, a Confederate Soldier, and daughter of Henry C Horton. Ida was born in TN in March 1842. Edward died 12 November 1904. He and Ida had two daughters, both born at Nashville-
a. Edine H East, b Aug 1870
b. Elizabeth C East, b Sep 1872
Ida had three children with her first husband: Gustavis Ward, born in 1857 in MS; Tina Ward, born in 1859 in TN; and Eila Ward, born in 1863 in MS. (M77,M92, EE,NL,W,8rsu)
Edward Hudson East [E11f], son of William East from VA and Drucilla ____ from KY, was born 18 October 1845 at Clinton, DeWitt Co IL. He was called Edwin in the 1870 census. He and three siblings had their own home separate from their parents in 1870. They were family #129 at Wapella, DeWitt Co. Their parents were family # 190 and #262 (they were shown in the census twice). Edward H East married Charlotte D Laborance in DeWitt Co on 21 August 1872. This must have been a double wedding since Edward's brother David also married on this date, to Charlotte's sister Laura W Laborance. Charlotte was born at Bethlehem, Albany Co NY in December 1849, daughter of Adam Laborance and Charlotte R Dodge. Henry's wife Charlotte died 2 January 1874 in Bates Co MO (from childbirth?). See the note following David C East's biography.
About 1880 Edward married Hattie F Baxter from Trenton, MO and they lived at Victoria, Victoria Co TX, near the central Gulf Coast; Edward raised livestock in TX. Hattie was born 9 December 1859 in MO. In 1910 they were in Nueces Co, and in Kleberg Co in 1920. (These three counties are near the coast and each county is one or two counties southwest of the prior one.) In 1920 Edward was a retired cattleman living at Dutada with his youngest two children, grandchildren, and ranch workers. Hattie died 5 August 1915. Edward died on 21 December 1925 and was buried in Chamberlain Cemetery next to Hattie. They had nine children by 1900, with six still living; the 1910 census showed just seven children with all alive. All children were born in TX-

Edward Hudson East Jr [E11f9], son of Edward Hudson East and Hattie F Baxter, was born 24 December 1899 at Victoria, Limestone Co TX. In September 1918 he was a student at A P M College. He named his father "Edward Hudson East" as his closest relative when he registered for the WW1 draft. Edward (Jr) was in the oil business. He died at Edinburg, Hidalgo Co on 12 March 1944 from heart failure and was buried at Kingsville, Kleberg Co. Edward's younger brother Allen was the informant for Edward's death certificate. (M,756u, 237v, 263w,349d)
Edward Hyde East [E4c1a2i], son of Benjamin East and Nancy Ann Pruitt of Campbell Co and Goochland Co VA, was born in VA in 1791. He moved from VA in 1806 to Davidson Co TN. After his father died, when Edward was still a boy, James Carter was Edward's guardian; this James Carter was one of the administrators of Edward East's fathers estate. And in 1817 in the settlement of the estate of Samuel Buchanan, Edward H East was given a Negro woman named Lucy. And again, one of the administrators / executors of the Buchanan estate was James Carter. The deceased Samuel Buchanan must have been an uncle of Edwards's wife.
In the 1820s Edward was the guardian for Elizabeth Saunders, a minor orphan. She was left property in her late parents' will, and on 15 November 1821 Edward H East was in court to account for Miss Saunder's expenses and inherited properties. He again appeared in court on this matter on 22 March 1822, and on 12 March 1823 and 9 October 1923. Elizabeth Saunders' late father may have been Francis Saunders since matters of his estate appear in Davidson Co court records during the early 1820s. William Saunders was the executor. Edward was also the executor of the estate of James McBride in on 2 July 1823.
Edward married Cecelia Buchanan on 12 October 1812 in Davidson Co. She was a daughter of John Buchanan, and was born in VA about 1791. Cecelia's father obtained from NC a grant of 5,000 acres for Revolutionary War service. It was upon this grant, on a tract on Stone's River, where Edward and Cecelia lived and died. He was a justice of the peace, and beginning in 1853 was chairman of the county court for a number of years. Edward was blind in 1870, living with 18 year old Molly Base, and two servants. Cecelia died on 27 February 1870 "at the age of 78" in Nashville, according to the Nashville Republican Banner newspaper of 1 March 1870.

Elias Caruth East [E14a1d8], son of Joseph E East and Frances Nations, was born in December 1855 in Hempstead Co AR. He married Julia F Scott in Nevada Co on 23 April 1874. She was born in AR in 1854. In 1880 they were living in Nevada Co close to his brother Edmund, and had three children. In 1900 Elias C East and his second wife Queen E _____ (Vaughan?) were living at Texarkana in Miller Co AR. This was also Queen's second marriage. Elias operated the Texarkana East Funeral Home and Queen was a seamstress. She was born in AR in December 1872 (age 27 in 1900, 40 in 1910, 42 in 1920). Elias died in the 1900s, probably in the early 1900s since he and Queen had just one child before he died. In 1910 "Mrs E C East" was living in Texarkana with her her son, and was an Undertaking Proprietress. (Bowie Co TX census, family 21, second page of Texarkana; their business was within two city blocks of the AR-TX state line, which runs north-south thru town, so her home was always within a short walk, but sometimes switched states.) It also appears that after Elias died, Queen turned their funeral parlor into a dual undertaking parlor - rooming house combination. In 1910 there were nine boarders, including Queen's widowed sister Mrs Frank Stinnett, who lived with them in 1900. Queen was still alive in September 1918 when her son Jack, on his draft card, named his mother "Mrs E C East" as his nearest living relative. At that time they lived on Vine Street in Texarkana, AR, but in 1910 their boarding house was on Olive St in Texarkana, Bowie Co TX. In 1920 Queen was still living at Texarkana, in TX; she ran a casket making business then. In 1930 at Texarkana, now back in Miller Co AR, she was till in the funeral home business. Elias and Queen had one son, making four children in all for Elias, all born in AR-

d. Jack Alfonsa East, b 12 Sep 1899 at Texarkana, Miller Co AR, was a student in 1918 and in 1920; he also probably was the main source of labor in his mother's casket making business at Texarkana in 1920. Jack died at Little Rock in October 1977. (M,Z,91u,102vw)
In 1900 thru 1930 Queen's widowed sister Mrs Frankie Stinnett (or Mrs Frank Stinnett?) lived with Queen There was a 13 November 1892 marriage in Lawrence Co AR between a Frances Vaughan and Mr J F Stinnett. In half the census records, Queen used the name Queen East, or used "Mrs E C East" as her name. (M92,BM,74q,62s,59m,91uf,102vw)
Elias E East [E19a2d], son of Zealous Ray East and Mahuldah Armour, was born 14 August 1840 in Randolph Co AL. In 1870 Elias and his wife are found in Randolph Co (Louisa PO, census Page No. 47, family number 345). Elias was a member Company 1, 13th Alabama Regiment, CSA. He married F A Cornette Pool about 1867. She was born in AL on 15 August 1842 (gravestone says 1849; she was age 8 in 1850, age 18 in 1860, age 29 in 1870, age 39 in 1880), daughter of Robert C Pool and Margaret _____. In 1880 they lived near Roanoke in Randolph Co, a few doors from his widowed mother and brother Cicero and sister Samantha, and they had four children, all born in Randolph Co. Elias and Cornette moved to TX after 1880 and she died there on 22 May 1898. She was buried in Armour Cemetery West in Limestone Co. Later that year Elias married Nancy A _____, who was born in April 1842 (per gravestone; born April 1846 per 1900 census; born 1843 per 1910 & 1920 census) in TX, and died in TX in 1920; Nancy and Elias were also buried in Armour Cemetery West in Limestone Co, but his gravestone has no dates. He died 11 December 1923 at Coolidge, Limestone Co on pneumonia. Nancy and Elias were living at Amour, Limestone Co TX in 1900, near his children and grandchildren. The children moved to Limestone Co by the mid-1880s since Elias' grandchildren were born there starting in 1886; when Elias and Cornette moved is unknown, but it was likely about the same time as his children.
Since Nancy was age 52 when she married Elias, she had no children. Elias and Cornette's children were-
1. Beulah East, b 30 Oct 1867
2. Robert Warren Nicholson East, b 7 Apr 1870
3. Zemily H E East, b Mar 1873

Elijah East of KY was in the War of 1812. Military records show that he entered the service as a Private on 15 August 1812 and was discharged as a Private on 14 October 1812. Those dates put his approximate birth date at around 1790. Elijah was assigned to Captain James C Price's Company, Lewis' Regiment, Kentucky Volunteers. In 1870 and 1880 there was an Elijah East living at Oxford, Butler Co OH. He was born in KY about 1790 of VA parents. His wife (then) was 39 year old Jane _____ from SC. This whole family was shown to be Mulatto. Elijah's first wife was Ellen, but they did not appear to have had children. Elijah lived in Butler Co OH from 1840, but in 1830 an Elijah Eastes was shown living in Estil Co KY. There was no Elijah East / Eastes found in 1820. Elijah and his wife Jane had five children, all born in OH-

Elijah A East [E4c3a3b11j], son of Patterson East and Sarah Lee, was born in 1867 in Macon Co TN and died there in 1879. He is buried in the East Cemetery near Lafayette, Macon Co. (MV,4rc)
Elijah Marion East [E4a3a1c3j], son of John East and Zilpha Chance, was born 1 November 1831, probably in Leake Co MS, and died 10 September 1834. (MV,W)
Elijah S East [E19a5i], son of Daniel Tann East and Elizabeth Anne Eubanks, was born in March 1850 in Benton Co AL. He was not found after 1850. (K,285n)
Elisha East [E4a2a8], minor child of Thomas East and Obedience _____ of Pittsylvania Co VA, was a mis-reading of the records, and this person was actually daughter Elizabeth. (EP)
Elisha East [E10d], son of William East and Martha _____, was born in VA in 1778 in Halifax Co VA. He was living in Halifax Co in 1820 thru 1850, and probably since birth. In 1820, four doors away, was Archer Farmer, age 26-44. In 1850 Elisha's wife was Anna _____; her correct name was Hannah Farmer, whom he married in Halifax Co on 17 January 1814. There were no other Elisha East marriages between 1814 and 1850. Witnesses at the marriage were Richard East and Daniel Comer. Hannah was born in VA 17 January 1788. On 14 August 1819 in Halifax Co Elisha sold land in Halifax to Isaac and Sarah D Medley. Again there is an 1844 recorded deed of trust concerning Elisha in Halifax Co, so he lived in that county his whole life. Elisha died in Halifax Co on 6 August 1853 of of dropsy. His death certificate said that his parents were "William and Martha East" and that he was born in Halifax Co, and that his wife was Hannah. The informant for the death certificate was their son "William D East." Elisha was age 75 when he died, hence born about 1778. They had at least five children, all probably born in Halifax Co VA-
1. Harriet G East, b 1814, married in 1844 to Archer Moore. See her biography.
2. Nancy T East, b abt 1815, married Thomas H Carlton in 1835. See her biography
3. Obediah F East, b 1817. He was age 23 in the 1850 census; the 1830 and 1840 census had a boy born 1816-1820 in Elisha's home, and there was no son in 1830 nor in 1840 who was in the 1826-1830 age group. In 1820 the only son was in the Under age 10 age group. Hence, the 1850 age for Obediah must be wrong, and he was likely born in the 1810s, probably in 1817. He was not found after the 1850 census, so had probably died in the 1850s.(26ijkn)
4. William David East, b 3 Jan 1823, married Caroline Frances Moore in 1848. See his biography.
5. John H East, b 1823, died 19 August 1854. (SS,26jkn)
Dropsy is an ailment caused by eating the mixture of contaminated mustard oil mixed with argemone oil; its symptoms are acute nausea, vomiting, loose motions, bloated stomach, erythema and swelling of hands and feet.
In 1840, there was one male slave in Elisha's household.
The 1820 census showed only four East families in Halifax Co: John, Richard, Nancy, and Elisha. This Richard East must have been one of the two witnesses at Elisha and Hannah's marriage; he may have been Elisha's brother since his age was about the same as Elisha's and he had four children under the age of 10 in 1820. (M92,SS, 26mijkndz)
Elisha East [E4a3b1c1], son of Larkin East and Mary Payton, was born in 1829 in Simpson Co KY. He was not found after 1850 in Lincoln Co MO where his brothers and sisters lived, so probably died in the 1850s in Lincoln Co. (165j, 46kn)
Elisha D East, son of William D East and Caroline F Moore of Halifax Co VA, was born in October 1849 in Halifax Co. (M92, 26n)

Eliza East [E4a2a5c], daughter of William East and Rhoda Clark, was born about 1807 (1805-1810 per 1830 census) in Charlotte Co VA. She married Harrison Cumbee in Charlotte Co on 2 October 1826. They were living in Charlotte Co in 1830, and by that time had one son. They were not found anywhere in 1840; in Halifax Co in 1840 was a Thomas R Cumby, but at that time he had no sons but had two daughters, and a wife. In 1850 Harrison was a carpenter in Halifax Co, with a young woman named Sarah A Cumbee in his home, age 25, but no wife. If the Joseph Cumbee next door had married, the Sarah with Harrison would have been the right age to be Joseph's wife. Harrison was born in 1806 in VA and was a carpenter. His wife Eliza was likely born about 1807. Their son was-
1. Joseph Cumbee, b 1827, was a boatman (boat builder) living next door to his father in Halifax Co in 1850. In Joseph's home the head was Thomas R Cumbee and his wife Eliza. This Eliza was age 37, and Thomas R was age 38. They had seven children ranging in age from 16 top 1, and then 23 year old Joseph Cumbee was listed last, as if he wasn't a son, but was instead a nephew. The Thomas R Cumbee home also had other young men in it. All were carpenters or boatmen, so the home was a boat building establishment. Joseph was apparently learning his uncle's trade. (24j,26n)
There was a marriage in Charlotte Co between an Eliza Cumby and Benjamin Howard on 21 February 1839. That marriage was a second for Benjamin since they had numerous children in 1840, but the wife's age matched with Eliza East's age, and Benjamin was born in the 1790s. They lived in Campbell Co in 1850, and Eliza was born in 1804; Benjamin was born in 1781. None of the children had familiar East names, and they ranged in ages from 13 years to 5 months. (24ijkm, 26n,25n)

Elizabeth East [E4a3a7], daughter of William East and Frances Cockerham, was born about 1774 in Charlotte Co VA. She married John Boyles by 1798. If so, John was born about 1765. (W,1043p)
Elizabeth East [E28] married William Elkins on or soon before 24 December 1783 in Henry Co VA. (M94)
Elizabeth East [E4a2a8], daughter of Thomas East and Obedience _____ of Pittsylvania Co VA, was born soon after 1777. She was probably not 21 years by September 1798, but was at least 21 on 2 April 1808 when she sold some of her inheritance to her older brother Thomas. On that date her name was given as Elizabeth East, so she was not married (or had married an East?). (L,EP)
Elizabeth "Betsey" East [E4c1a2f], daughter of Benjamin East and Nancy Pruitt of Campbell Co and Goochland Co VA, was born 29 August 1783 in Goochland Co, and was christened there on 21 September 1784. She married Jesse Carroll on 30 May 1803 in Goochland Co by Reverend Lewis Chaudoin. Jesse was born in 1779 in Goochland Co and was the administrator of Betsey's father's estate in 1809 in Davidson Co TN. They had at least eight children-
1. William H Carroll, b 1805
2. James Wilson Carroll, b 13 Jan 1806
3. Nancy Carroll, b abt 1810
4. Ferdinand Carroll, b 11 Jan 1813
5. Jessee Carroll, b 1814
6. Addison Richard Carroll, b 1814
7. Mary Carroll, b 1819
8. Edward H Carroll, b abt 1823
There was a William Carroll who was born about 1780 and lived in Davidson Co TN in 1820 and 1830. He had children. (M92,D,W,L,JA,556m)
Elizabeth East [E4c6c5a], daughter of James East and an unknown mother, was born between 1785 and 1794 in Lincoln Co KY or VA (Lincoln Co was a VA county in 1790). Nothing is known of her. (W,359h)
Elizabeth East [E1b2], daughter of Thomas East and Sarah Graves, was born 26 August 1792 in Henry Co VA. She married Thomas S Webb on 5 January 1808 in Henry Co (the marriage bond was posted on 28 November 1807); the surety was Thomas C Bouldin (see Sally East, Elizabeth's sister). Elizabeth and Thomas moved to Giles Co and lived there for years afterwards near Pulaski. Later in life Thomas was called "Colonel," and died of typhoid pneumonia near Pulaski on 28 November 1851 at the age of 59. There are two gravestones in the Hopkins/Blooming Grove Cemetery off highway 15 near Leatherwood Creek which read "Thomas S Webb, 7 November 1793, 28 November 1851, aged 58 years," and next to it is "Mrs. Nancy, wife of Thomas S. Webb, d. 3 July 1844, aged 38 years." Because the 1840 census of Giles Co (page 160) shows the wife of Thomas S Webb to be in her 30s, then the census fits the age of Nancy, who was buried with Thomas. Apparently, by 1840 Elizabeth had died (or divorced Thomas?), and he remarried to Nancy.
Another source of info says that Elizabeth died by 21 October 1878 in TX; they moved to TX before 1850; this info then must be talking of Elizabeth's children, if Elizabeth had died by 1840. The only Thomas S Webb family found in Giles Co in 1840 shows his wife in her 30s, living in the north or northeast part of the county. But since they had four children in their early teen years, and 11 children altogether then, it would appear that this may be the second marriager of Thomas, and not a Thomas Webb Jr. At the time the Thomas S Webb family was living next door to the B(uckner) Abernathy family, father-in-law of Elizabeth's sister Maria, in the north or northeast part of the county. Elizabeth and Thomas had 14 children-

Elizabeth East [], parents unknown, was born 5 July 1795 in VA, and married Joseph Holliday in Monroe Co MO on 31 October 1837. He was born on 15 September 1789 in KY. In 1850 and 1860 they were still in Monroe Co. This was Joseph's second marriage. His first wife was Nancy R McCune, whom he married in Bourbon Co KY on 18 March 1816. Nancy died at McCune, Pike Co MO on 9 January 1834 with the birth of her ninth child; the last eight children were born in Pike Co. With Elizabeth East there were no children. She died in Monroe Co on 6 September 1868 and Joseph then lived with his daughter Elizabeth. He died 17 December 1870 in Monroe Co. Elizabeth East and Joseph Holliday were buried in Holliday Cemetery in Monroe Co. Joseph's parents were William Holliday (born 1755 at Rathfriland, Down Co Ireland) and Martha Patton (born about 1760 in Ireland). (W,M92,995mnq)
Elizabeth East [E4c3a3g], daughter of Isham East and Mary Edds, was born 22 July 1797 in Stokes Co NC. She married Freeman Copeland on 28 January 1822 in Patrick Co VA; the minister was Thomas Whitlock and the surety bond was paid by William East. Since Elizabeth's paternal grandfather William East had died in 1803, the William East providing the bond must have been her brother. Freeman was born in NC in 1800 and died in Surry Co in the 1850s. In 1830 and 1840 they lived in Surry Co, and were probablyn there in 1827 when they were wanted in the Grayson Co courthouse concerning matters of her brother Drury's estate. The March 1827 court record shows that "_____ Copeland and Betsey his wife are not inhabitants of this Commonwealth, and having not entered their appearance ..." In 1850 they were both still in Surry Co (spelled Copland), and lived at Siloam. In 1860 Elizabeth and three children still lived together in Surry Co, at Dobson. They had seven children, all born in Surry Co NC-

The two daughters still at home then were Martha and Elizabeth; either could be the mother of the baby. He was George Copeland, age 1/12 on August 8, and labeled "Bastard" by the census taker.

Elizabeth East [E4a3a3a1], probably a daughter of John East and Mary Johnson, was born 2 January 1812 in Stokes Co NC. She was age 1811-1820 in 1840 with her husband in Stokes Co, and age 1811-1815 in 1820 and 1830 in Stokes Co in her father's home. Elizabeth married George Martin Nelson in Stokes Co on 14 December 1830; the bond was provided by Jason Amburn. Martin was born about the same time as Elizabeth, according to the 1840 census. They remained in Stokes Co into the end of the 1840s, but in 1850 lived in Wythe Co VA. She died in Wythe Co on 9 February 1881 and was buried in Shaffer Cemetery with Martin. He was born in Stokes Co NC near Pilot Mountain on 13 August 1810 and died in Wythe Co on 5 July 1881 "age 70y-10m-23d." He was buried in the small Shaffer Cemetery. Living in their home in 1850 was Isom East, age 33 and born in VA. This was probably Elizabeth's brother. In the Shaffer Cemetery there were only four Nelson graves; Elizabeth and "G M Nelson" plus children Isom and Margaret Nelson.
There were only three East men from Surry Co or Stokes Co NC who could be Elizabeth's father: John East [E4a3a3a], Joseph C East [E4c3a1d], and Thomas East Jr [E4c3a2e]. All three had a daughter of Elizabeth's age in the censuses of 1820 and 1830. Since we can be pretty sure that the Isom East living with Elizabeth in Wythe Co in 1850 was her brother, then of the three possible fathers just mentioned, all had a son of Isom's age. But of those three possible fathers, it was only John who had a father named Isham, a possible namesake for Elizabeth's brother Isom. Furthermore, Drury East [E4a3a3c8] had also moved to Wythe Co and had a son born there. Drury was a nephew of John East [E4a3a3a]; families generally stick together when they moved to a new location. Hence, Elizabeth East who married George M Nelson is probably a daughter of John East. (She cannot be a sister of the above Drury East because Drury was a son of William East, Elizabeth's uncle, and William's children are known; none of them were Elizabeth or Isom.) Elizabeth and Martin had seven children by 1850, all born in Stokes Co NC-
a. Isom Nelson, b 7 Oct 1832 in Stokes Co NC and moved to Wythe Co VA when he was about age 17. He married Margaret A _____ in 1859 and lived next door to his parents. Margaret was born in VA on 1 September 1841. When the Civil War broke out, Isom served in the Virginia Infantry for the Confederacy and received a pension for his service. He enlisted as a Private on 15 May 1862 in Company H, 63rd Virginia Infantry Regiment. He was hospitalized on 20 October 1863. Isom was promoted to Full Corporal 4th Class on 1 January 1864, and was a Prisoner Of War on 3 July 1864 at Marietta, GA and sent to Camp Douglass, IL on 16 July 1864. Over the years after the Civil War, Isom and Margaret did a good job of avoiding the census takers. The next time after 1860 they were found was at Lead Mine, Wythe Co in 1900. Margaret was buried in Shaffer Cemetery with Isom. She died 22 July 1899 "Wife Of Isom." Isom died 9 March 1907. By then their daughter had died. His and Margaret's daughter was-
1. Elizabeth Nelson, b 1859 in Wythe Co VA, She married George H Suthers at the home of Colonel Robert Sayers on 27 October 1881. She was dead by 1900 (probably dead long before then). (1085qm) (M,76k,1085nquc)
b. William Nelson, b 1837 in Stokes Co NC and moved to Wythe Co VA when he was a teen. He married Sophrona _____ (Shaffer?) about 1862. She was born in VA on 11 March 1844. In 1870 William was not found, but Sophrona and her eldest three children lived at Fort Chiswell in Wythe Co; their ages, though were about ten years off, as if someone who was not familiar with the family gave the census taker incorrect information. They lived in Wythe Co at Black Lick in 1880. William died by 1900 and Sophrona lived at Fort Chriswell. They had nine children, all still alive in 1900-

Wythe Co VA is in southwest VA, the county just to the north of Grayson Co where many of these East families lived. Isom East moved to Greenup Co KY, married Susan _____, and had four children by 1870; see his biography below. Jason Amburn, who provided Elizabeth's marriage bond, was born in Grayson Co VA about 1809. He married in Surry Co NC to Mary George in 1829, and had five children born in Surry Co, then moved to Wythe Co VA soon before 1840 and had two more children. (492q,W,76mk,1085nqrc)
Elizabeth East [E4a3a1d7], daughter of Joseph C East and probably Joseph's first wife, was born in 1814 in NC. She married James Badgett in Surry Co on 4 October 1845 and lived in Stokes Co at Marshes. James Badgett was born in 1815 in NC. Elizabeth must have married a Mr Copeland first, and then married James Badgett second. The bondsman for the second marriage was Albert White. No marriage records were found that may apply to Elizabeth, before her marriage with James Badgett, but her marriage record with James was "Elizabeth Copeland," so she must have married a Mr Copeland first around the middle or early 1830s (her first two daughters were born then). And the only prior marriage for James Badgett was on 21 January 1837 in Rowan Co; that marriage was with "James Badget" actually, and was too late to explain the first two daughters below.
Elizabeth was an apparent widow living in Surry Co in 1840 with two daughters; her mother, aunt, or mother-in-law was also living with her then. On the following census page were: John Venable [E4a3a4e], son of Ursula East and William Venable; Freeman Copeland, husband of Elizabeth East [E4a3a3g]; and Jesse Copeland, Garrett Copeland, and Truman Copeland. These three Copeland men were of age to be brothers to Freeman Copeland.
In 1860 her apparent father Joseph East, age 76 and "feeble" was living with her and James. James Badgett died in the 1870s in Surry Co, and in 1880 Elizabeth lived at Eldora next to her son Burell. Elizabeth's parents were both born in NC, according to the 1880 census. Elizabeth's seven children were all born in NC, probably Surry Co-

Elizabeth East [E4a2a2e], daughter of Ezekiel East and Elizabeth Worsham, was born in 1814 in northern Pittsylvania Co VA. She was named after her mother. Her father was named as her official guardian to handle an inheritance for her on 21 June 1831 because she was then a minor. On 3 March 1840 in Pittsylvania Co she married Henry Bailiss. Philip Doss provided the bond for the groom. A spelling variation is Bailes. Henry Bailiss was the next door neighbor. Elizabeth's brother Ezekiel married Mary A Baliss the previous year. Elizabeth and Henry set up their first home next door to her father, but in her husband's parents' home. In 1850 they had their own home close to Elizabeth's sisters Sarah and Obedience. Henry was born in Pittsylvania Co in 1805. Elizabeth died in the late 1850s because in 1860 her youngest two children were spread among neighboring families. Henry was still in Pittsylvania Co in 1870, but none of his family was in his home. He and Elizabeth had seven children by 1870-

Elizabeth East [E4a3a1d2], daughter of Langston East and Elizabeth Rogers, was born in 1816 in Laurens Co SC. She was Elizabeth C, age 30 in 1850, and E K, age 44 in 1860, Elizabeth K, age 54 in 1870. She was not in her mother's home in 1840. She may have married a Mr Hurt; in 1850, 16 year old Elizabeth Hurt lived with 65 year old widow Elizabeth East in Laurens Co. In 1850, daughter Elizabeth C East lived in Laurens Co (page 251A), now married to John Dean. Their eldest child was born in 1845.

Harrison Co is about six counties to the northwest of Lincoln Co, next to IA on the north; Lincoln Co is on the east side of MO, next to IL on the east. There were Hunter families in both counties in 1850, but Joseph wasn't found among them. In 1880. Living next door, were two Hunter families: Lousa C Hunter, age 55, and her son Jordan, age 19; the second family was Columbus Hunter, age 25, and his wife Analiza, age 26 and their son William C, age 1. From the 1850 thru 1870 censuses, we know that Columbus was Louisa's son, and Louisa had married William Hunter, who apparently died in the late 1850s. Their children were all born in MO: Rebecca A, b 1844; Elizabeth A, b 1845; Willard P H, b 1848; Henry A, b Oct 1849; Susan, b 1853; James, b 1855; Columbus, b 1856; and Jordan, b 1860.

In 1850 in Harrison Co there was a 76 year old Rachel Hunter, born in NC, living with Madrin Hader and his wife Nancy. And living next door to William Hunter and Louisa C in 1850 was Henry Hunter and his wife Rebecca; both were born in 1796, he in KY and she in VA. This couple could be the parents of William and James. In 1850 in Lincoln Co MO, all within four doors of each other, was Mary Welty, age 63 and born in NC, Joseph C Hunter, age 35 and born in MO, and Asa Hiler, son of Sarah East; Sarah was the sister of Thomas East who had married Fanny Welty. And Thomas East's daughter Elizabeth had married James Hunter, who was about 10 years younger than the Joseph Hunter living close to Asa Hiler and Mary Welter. Also, in Mary Welty's home in 1850 were three Hunter children, ages 8 to 2. In addition, in the home next to Mary Welty, was Bazel Pointlow, age 62 and born in France. Thomas East's daughter Zilliah East (sister of Elizabeth who married a Hunter) had married John Pointlow. John Pointlow was of age to be a son of the Bazel Pointlow living next to Mary Welty (census page 406). Mary Welty lived five doors from Asa East, brother of Fanny Welty's husband Thomas East.

Elizabeth Harriet East [E10d4f], daughter of William David East and Caroline Frances Moore, was born 14 March 1857 (age 19 in 1880, 51 in 1910, 62 in 1920, 70 in 1930) in VA, probably in Prince Edward Co. She married Harry L Campbell in 1895 (per 1900 census) or in 1887 (per 1910 census) and they lived at Fairfield, Henrico Co. This may have been a second marriage for Elizabeth if she had married Harry in 1895 because she had four children by 1900, the eldest born in 1889; these older children used the Campbell name in 1900. Elizabeth claimed, in 1930, that she first marriage at the age of 27, so it appears that the mid-1880s marriage makes Harry the father of all her children.
Harry was born in VA in December 1863, and was a carpenter. They moved to Manchester, Chesterfield Co by 1910. Elizabeth was living with her daughter Bessie in 1930 and was a widow. In Bessie's home were four nieces and nephews. Elizabeth had four children by 1900, and five by 1910-
1. Bessie L Campbell, b Feb 1889, never married. In 1930 she was livig at Manchester. He widowed mother lived with her and minded the three nieces and one nephews who lived with her while Bessie worked as a cigarette packer in a cigarette factory. (age 28 in 1920) (SS,29u,369v, 395w)
2. Grace E Campbell, b Jul 1890, married Clarence Barton in the 1909-1910 winter and they at first lived with her parents. Clarence was born in VA in 1881. He was a molder in a stove factory. They apparently died by 1920 because their daughter lived with Grace's mother and Grace's sister Bessie for years-
a. Carrie L Barton, b 1910, was named after her aunt who died by 1910. Carried married in 1925 and was widowed by 1930. She continued living with her maternal grandmother and aunt Bessie, and kept the Barton for herself and her three children-

f. Philip C Campbell, b Sep 1929 (369f) (SS,Z,29u,369v, 369f)
4. Harry Alvin Campbell, b 7 Aug 1895, was living at 1004 Semms St, Richmond, VA in June 1917, and was single; this was the address his brother Walter gave when also registering for the draft, so Harry was living with Walter then. Harry was still single in 1930 and was still living with Walter. (M,29u, 369v,395w,369f)
5. Carrie Lee Campbell, b & d 1900s. (369v) (SS,29u,369v,395w)
Harry's widowed mother Hannah lived with him and Elizabeth in 1910. (SS,368qs,29u,369v)
Elizabeth Jane East [E1d9a], daughter of Thomas East and Mary Sugg of Franklin Co AL, was born 4 May 1834 at Russellville, AL. She married Thomas Gorman in 1850. He was a merchant, born in Ireland about 1821, and they lived with Elizabeth's family soon after their marriage; by 1860 they had their own home, and he was a farmer. Elizabeth died on 28 May 1908 and is buried in the East family Cemetery in Franklin Co. After she was widowed she lived with her daughter Mary and her family. Elizabeth and Thomas had two children-
1. Mary G Gorman, b May 1854
2. Elizabeth Gorman, b 1864 (EP,50nqr)
Elizabeth Jane "Betsy" East [E4c6c3g7], daughter of John Jehu East and Sarah Hawkins of Greene Co MO, was born about 1836 in Lawrence Co IN. Betsy Jane East married Tandy Foster on 6 September 1852 in Greene Co. She was age 24 in 1860, and born in IN. In 1860, living with Tandy in Madison Twp, Polk Co, she had four children born in MO. One of Elizabeth's was named Jehu Foster. (Tandy had a daughter from a prior marriage: Phebe, age 11 and born in IN.) Tandy and all four of Elizabeth's children were not found afterwards, so all may have died of an illness or moved away. Tandy was born in OH in 1830.
There is another marriage record in Greene Co between an Eliza Jane East and Henry Grant on 20 September 1860. This second marriage was of the widow of Sidney East [E4c6c3g2], Mrs Eliza (Williams) East. We can be sure of this for two reasons: living in Eliza's home in 1870 with Henry Grant was her son Howard East [E4c6c3g2d], and in 1920 Eliza was living with Howard. She was age 87 and born in TN, and she was related to Howard as "mother." In 1930 she was living with her grandson Eric Grant, near Howard's home, and was called "grand-mother."
Elizabeth East, daughter of Jehu East, and Tandy Foster had four sons all born in Polk Co MO-
a. Robert Foster, b 1853, was not found in 1870, but in 1880 he was living in Marion Twp, Polk Co. Robert married Elizabeth "Lizzie" Adams on 31 December 1876 in Polk Co.

1. Maudie Foster, b 1877 in Polk Co MO. (42s) (42qsm)
b. Jehu Foster, b 1856, was not found after 1860; his brothers lived in Pike Co in 1880, but Jehu was not found. (42qs)

d. James Isaac Foster, b 1857, was living with his brother Robert in 1880 in Pike Co. (42qs) (JG,MF,42q,41mrs)
Elizabeth Jane East [E4a2a3d3], daughter of John Wesley East and Elizabeth Kelsey, was born in 1841 in Rives Co MO, moved with her family to Polk Co OR about 1844, and died 30 January 1921 at Portland, Multnomah Co OR. She married Richard S Perkins about 1857 in OR. He was born in England in 1830. They lived at Portland at first where Richard was a butcher, but by 1870 they had moved to East Butte, Washington Co and he was a farmer. They remained there past 1880, but in 1900 Elizabeth lived at Portland. She claimed she was married, but her husband was not living with her then. They had eleven children, all born in OR; nine were still alive in 1910-
a. Hannah Perkins, b 1858 at Portland. (CA,532q,882r)
b. Robert S Perkins, b Sep 1860, married Almira T Hart as his second wife, in 1886. She was born in England in November 1863 and moved to the US in 1871 when she was about 8 years old. Robert was a teamster at Portland. They did not have children. Robert was a fire fighter. Almira's sister Rosa lived with her and Robert in 1900. She was born in February 1877 in CA, over 13 years after Almira was born. Rosa claimed that both her parents were born in England, as did Almira. Almira became a US citizen in 1909. In 1880 she was a boarder in the Patrick & Hannah Griffin (born NH & Ireland) home at Pocahontas, Baker Co OR. And at Portland in 1880 was Edward J Hart and his wife Jane, ages 37 and 35. Jane was from Ireland and Edward J from England. They had four children, ages 6 years to 2 months. If this Edward was Almira's father, and he was married now for a second time, 17 year old Almira would "be in the way" with her father's new marriage. It would be common for the teenage children from the first marriage to live with someone else. In OR in 1880, there was only one Almira / Elmira who was born in England, and she had Robert's wife's birth year. That was the Almira Hart boarding with the Griffin family. Almira died at Portland on 30 December 1939. Robert died there on 23 February 1948. (CA,ORd,882rs,532suvw)
