Genealogy of the RANDLE FAMILY as given by James RANDLE now living near Paris, Tenn, in the 75th year of his age this April 27, 1867 and written by Edwin H. RANDLE:

"Previous to the war of 1776 about 30 or 40 years there moved from Virginia to Great Pedee (Yadkin R.), North Carolina and settled along the river three brothers, William, Peter and dumb John Randle or Randolph.

William married Lucy Simms had sons Peyton, Meritt, William, Henry and Wyatt in order of their ages. Peyton married Lucy Roper and emigrated from VA to NC a descendant of some branch of the Green family to which General Nathaniel Green belonged, thought to be the Generals niece. Peyton and Lucy Randles' children were Mary Peterson, Martha Johnson, Sarah, James Roper, Susan Simms and Tabitha. Mary P. married William Randle, son of Major John Randle. Martha J. married George W. Atkins. Both died in Arkansas near Pine Bluff. Sarah, who is now living near Caledonia, married Richard Manly. James R. married Sallie Hogan, both of whom are now living five miles east of Paris Tenn. Susan married George Davidson Randle (parents of writer Edwin H. Randle).

Tabitha first married Isaac Manly who left one daughter, the Hudson family of Paris. Second she married Col. James T. Williams, by him leaving two sons, Jas. T. and William Clinton.

Merrit Randle, son of first William Randle married Nancy Crawford sister of old Tom Crawford, the latter the richest man in the county. Merrit Randle settled in Carrol County Tenn and reared a large family, youngest child William, now about 45 years old has been deranged for many years, but not badly most of the time.

William Randle, son of the first William married Nancy Lyons, emigrated to Tennessee at an early day and settled on the Cumberland and then moved to Todd County Kentucky, and died leaving a large and well reared highly accomplished.

Henry Randle, the 4th son married Annie Lilly, emigrated to Stuart County Tenn, became a Methodist Preacher and died in the pulpit, one of the best of men.

Wyatt, 5th son, married Sallie Tomlinson, moved to Lounds Co Mississippi, did leaving a fortune and sons, Peyton, Henry, John, Douglass and three others.

Peter Randle, one of the three brothers from VA, had three sons and two daughters, John, Douglass, Frederic, Lucy and Polly, of these John married a Marshall and had one son now living near or at Aberdeen Miss. and is wealthy. Douglass died when young, Frederic is still living at Crawfordville, Miss having reared a family.

Lucy married a Lilly, and

Polly married George Davidson, son of Col. Geo. Davidson of the old Revolution.

Dumb John Randle the last of the three brothers became rich married and died with out issue.

With these three brothers first named there also came about the same time from VA to the Great Pedee and settled in the same neighborhood three other brothers, first cousins of these, namely Richard, Colby, and John Randle or Randolph. Richard had two sons and one daughter, James, Osborn, and Susan. All remained so far as known in North Carolina.

Colby Randle was said to be quite a dissipated man, had one son John who moved to Stuart County Tenn and died. Of the others nothing is known.

Major John Randle was said to have been quite a gallant officer in the War of 1776. Was a man of marked energy and vigor, married Molly Ware and had sons Wilson, Thomas, and William, and daughters Ann, Susan, Amy, and Frankie.

Wilson Randle (my grandfather) lost his eyesight in the meridian of life. His first marriage was to a daughter of Col. Geo. Davidson (who Col. of the war of 1776, and afterwards Congressman) left one son by her, Geo. D. Randle who married Susan Randle (see Peyton Randle) These were parents of Edwin H. Randle.

The above is an exact duplicate of the genealogy of the Randle family transmitted to me through correspondence with Edwin H. Randle, during the year 1867, and now in my possession. Signed, J. P. Randle, Gonzales, Texas, Jan. 1911"

"From Mrs. Adelicia Wall Gilbert, of McKenzie, TN: The RANDLES are of pure English ancestry. It was said by one fo the forefathers that two brothers named RANDOLPH came from England and settled on Roanoke River [ my note - flows through southern edge of Brunswick Co, VA], that they or their descendants married into the Rolf family one of whom married Pocahontas, that their progeny became ashamed of their Indian blood and changed their name to Randle, Randall, Randell, etc. [ My note - Pocahontas married John Rolfe and had only one child, Thomas Rolfe who had only one child, Jane Rolfe who married Col. Robert Bolling. Not very possible to be descended from Randolph or Randle]

RANDOLPH is an old English name, and the quick pronunciation of Americans which has corrupted so many names shortened it, for to this day all who preserve the original spelling are called Randle. But certain it is that three brothers settled in VA on the Roanoke and from there people of all the Randles of various ways of spelling the name in the United States have sprung. She believes that somehow they became connected with the blood of Pocahontas.

Tradition says that John RANDLE came over with his father and brothers about 1698 or 1699, the father probably dying on the way over since no record has been found of his arrival in the Colony.

VA Quit rent rolls of 1704, King William County - John RANDALL found with 100 acres of land.
(******King William County, taken from King and Queen County in 1701. St. John's Parish was the only parish in the county in 1701. St. Margarett's Parish was established in 1721 and St. David's in 1744)

Children are named in an old Bible and were communicated in 1904 by Mrs. Reeves of Newton, Iowa. The names of the parents of the children are not given in the Bible. Some researchers believe they may have been of the Stafford and Prince William Couny families. [Children of a William Randolph?] Most researchers believe they are the children of John and Mary. Jeconias RANDLE mentioned in the Bible is mentioned as of King William Co in two places. Entries are made as RANDOLPH but the family has always been syled both ways. They were properly RANDLE however.

From Kay: She found a book with abstracts from the earliest court records of Brunswick Co, VA between 1730 and 1735. They show Peter RANDOLPH/RANDLE, Josias, John, James and Jeconias. She believes that John and/or Mary died sometime around 1730 and the boys inherited some money. Peter is not listed in the Bible records which named all the other children which most people have concluded are the children of John and Mary. Could Peter be Josias and Jane's child "in esse"?

***********************
From "Genealogy of Brunswick County, VA, 1720-1975" and from Rev. Charles L. Randle "The John Randle Family"

"Brunswick County, VA was listed entirely in St. Andrew's Parish, VA. The McHerrin River [Meherrin?] kept rising so that many residents couldn't attend church services or do their county duties when the land was flooded. When John RANDLE died in 1753, his land was still in St. Andrew's Parish.
On 01 Jul 1754, the county was divided into two distinct parishes with the Meherrin River as the dividing line. The north side was placed in St. Andrew's Parish and the south side became Meherrin Parish.
John RANDLE's family lived on the south side so their land was located in Meherrin Parish.
1781 - Greenville County cut off from Brunswick. Parish lines remained the same. Half of each parish was in Brunswick or Greenville Counties"

"Randolph Bible Record: "The following copies from entries in an old Bible were communicated in 1904 by Mrs. W. E. Reeves, of Newton, Iowa. The names of the parents of the children born 1700 & c, are not given; but the name Osborne would indicate that they were of the family of the name in Stafford and Prince William. The name Isham was probably given as a compliment to Isham Randolph of 'Dungeness', for the persons named in this Bible record were certainly not descended from William of 'Turkey Island'. By deed in Prince William County, Oct. 20, 1750, John Randolph, of Prince Wm., and his wife Ann, one of the daughters & co-heirs of Thomas Osborne of Prince William, conveyed a tract of land to Cuthbert Harrison who had married Osborne's widow.

The will of John Randolph was dated Sept. 11, 1789, and proved in Prince William, Nov. 5, 1790, legatees, wife Anne, daughter Sarah, daughter Peggy, daughter Betsy, daughter Mary Ann, sons John and Thomas Osborn Randolph, son Wm., daughter Mildred Oliver, daughter Mary Tyler, daughter Frances. The will of Wm. Randolph dated August 2, 1792, was proved in Prince Wm. Sept. 2, 1792, legatees; wife Elinor, and children Robert, William, George and Mildred.
