LETTER FROM THE EDITOR:

Dear Members,

published by

STRICKLAND RESEARCH, INC. 1661 Lauranceae Way

Riverdale, Georgia 30296

Nancy Cornell, Editor

FOURTH QUARTER 1982

Another year is coming to a close - one which we can certainly say was a successful year. This year brought us the beginnings of our "Re­search Fund", many new members, new exchanges with other family organi­zations, and a very productive October meeting. We have gained so many new friends and add~d so much information to our files that we can all pat ourselves on the back for a job well done.

Many of our Strickland lines are beginning to make connections, and, we hope in the coming year to print charts or family group sheets on these lines. There are still many gaps, but we are progressing.

1 know you have noticed this Strickland Scene looks a bit differ­ent from past issues. This is due to the fact that my ancient old typewriter finally retire~ from se~vice. A few of the pages were typed on the old typewriter, but a new machine had to be obtained to finish this issue.

PLEASE make a note that your 1983 dues are now due. A sheet has been included for your renewal. This sheet also includes a space for queries. We are proud of the fact that we began in 1980 with dues at $10 per year, and have not raised our dues even though our costs have continued to climb. Help us hold down our costs by getting your dues in as soon as possible so that we may use our Bulk Mail Permit for mailing Strickland Scene.

My thanks to each of you for being so helpful, and for your pa­tience with me. It is a pleasure to know and to work with so many gracious people.

Sincerely,

l(,,_, '7l'-· t~ ~ Nancy f. Cornell

ELISHA STRICKLAND OF WAKE COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA

The following is a report on Elisha Strickland compiled from re­search paid for by our 'Research Fund,' and from other printed sources.

ELISHA. STRICKLAND, son of Jacob STRICKLAND {who died 1790 in Nash Co, NC), was living in Johnston County, North Carolina, by July 22, 1761, when he patented 700 acres of land (Grant #19) on the south side of Magazine Creek, a Branch of Little River.

On August 9, 1779, he pa.tented two grants in Wake County ad­joining his land. One of the grants consisted of 73 acrtis (Grant #147) on both sides of Mocoson Swamp, the other was 638 acres on Mocoson Swamp {Grant #109). Seven months later, he received a grant (IJ6J) of 640 acres, dated March 29, 1780, on Turkey Creek bordering the county line. On January 6, 1781, he patented 50 acres in Nb.sh County on the County line near BRYANT's Spring Branch.

From 1785 to 1794, ELISHA sold portions o:f his patents. The first parcel was sold on March 5, .1785, to Jesse BUNN (from the Aug. 9, 1779 grant), 117 acres south of Rocky Mockeraon. This deed (Wake County Deed Book G, p. 89) was witnessed by Abel STRICKLAND and Patty STRICKLAND.

On March J, 1786, ELISHA sold 85 acres to Thomas GAY. The land adjoined land of ELISHA, Thomas G.lY and Joseph NORRIS (from the pa­tant of Aug. 9, 1779). This deed was witnessed by M~thew STRICKLA.ND, Richard UPCHURCH and Charles UPCHURCH.(Wake County Deed Book H, p. 45)

In 1791, ELISHA sold Stephen PEARCE 160 acres in Franklin and Wake Counties on Mocquerson Creek.(Franklin·County Deed Book 7, p. 64) This land adjoined Matthew STRICKLAND, the South Prong of ~ocquerson Creek, the Great Branch, Jesse BUNN, Stephen PEARCE and gr~ve rock bra.nch. (Possibly a part of one of the .>.ug. 9, 1779 gra.n"'.;s) The deed '«B.S witnessed by James PEARCE and Richard UPCHURCH.

On March 15, 1794, ELISHA sold two tracts o:f land to William MORGIN of Nash County, in Franklin County on Turkey Creek. One deed, con.slating of JOO acres and adjoining the County line and BRYANT, was lri tn~rnaed by Jesse PEARCE, Richard UPCHURCH and Kinchen UPCHURCH (Franklin County Deed Book A, p. 272). The second deed, consisting of )00 acres in Franklin County on Turkey Creek, also adjoining BRYANT and the County line, evidently joined the first deed in soma manner. These two parcels of land are c,ppar-ently portions of the 1780 and 1781 grt:.nts of ELISHA.

Eight months later on November 18, 1794, ELISHA. sold Thomas RAY of Franklin County 42 acres in the fork of ~ockeraon Creek, ad­joining Jansa PURCE, Thon:.a.s GAY and Tho~e RAY (Fr~nklin County Deed Book 10, :P• 255). On May 2, 1795, ELISHA eold Willi~.rt SEAGRAVES of rate Co~nt1 40 &er~s o! a tract of 240 acres ~djoining M02~~N (cee 1794 dcE,d.5), Hl'l.r6y GRIFFIN, ~olf Harbor BrFnch, Spring Bran~h, the piny prong, e.nd 1-'J....SSEY. This d!5d was wi tn~S:;BGd by Benja..!:..in ~frlEELER ~nd WilliLm \fRA.Y (Franklin County De~d Book 8, p. 201).

Four months after selling the last of the above listed deeds, ELISHA STRICKLAND's will was brought into Wake County Court (Sept. 1795). He wrote and signed his will on February 23, 1795, sold the 1st parcel of land on May 2, 1795, and died sometime between May 2nd and September of 1795.

The name of ELISH.A's wife is still unknown. A very good possi­bility is that her maiden name was UPCHURCH, but, so far, this is only speculation. The children and one grandchild are listed in Elisha's will ass

1, "my dearly beloved son, KINCHEN STRICKLAND ••• the maner plan­tation where I now live containing by Estimation three hundred akers Lying on both sides of Mokerson Creek"

2, son, ISAAC STRICKLAND "two hundred and fifty akers of Land Lying in the fork of Mokerson it being the Plantation where he now lives"

3. JACOB STRICKLAND, son

4. PRISSILLOR SEGRAVES, daughte~

5. CHARITY JOHNSTON, daughter

6. ELIZABETH GRIFFIN, daughter

7. PATTE STRICKLAND, daughter

8. SALLE PACE, daughter

9. MILBRE STRICKLAND, granddaughter

10. MARY CARTER, no relationship given

The estate folder of ELISHA STRICKLAND of Wake County (located in the North Carolina Archives at Raleigh - original or "loose" papers) includes a paper showing on August 18, 1803, Brasel STRICKLAND, James CP~MBLEE and Matthew STRICKLING were bonded in the Wake County Court for Brasel STRICKLAND's appointment as guardian for Milbry STRICKLING, mi:nor orphan. Milbry (also Milbrey & Milly) married William JONES on June 12, 1804, in Franklin County, North Carolina. At that time, she was probably between the ages of 15 and 20, which would indicate she was born between 1783 and 1789. She was either the only grand­child (not very probable) or the favorite grandchild of ELISHA in 1795, or her father had died at this time and, therefore, ELISHA left her a portion of his estate.

In June of 1805, a petition of Brasel STRICKLAND and Polly, his wife, was brought into the Wake County Court of Pleas and Quarter Ses­sions (also located in Elisha Strickland's folder). The petition was brought against "Isaac Strickland & Others,M to set aside the will of ELISHA STRICKLAND, because "tha t Legacy ••• given to Milly S'l'RICKLAND was graudulently inserted. It being the intention of the Testator to give said Legacy to POLLY one of your petitioners," and that "be-

(a newspaper) for 3 weeks be deemed sufficient notice."

Deeds have been located which indicate the approximate time ISAAC and KINCHEN left North Carolina and settled in Georgia. KIN­CHEN 'f.fS.S living in Franklin County, NC, on November 26. 1802, wh~n l'te sold JOO acres to JOHN PACE, "being the land held by ELISHA ZTRICKLAND. deceased, and giv&n to his son KINCHEN by Will," on both aides of Mockerson Creek, partly in Wake County and partly in Frank­lin County. This land adjoined Richard UPCHURCH's Branch, Jamee UP­CHURCH, the widow PEARCE, "mouth of the Grave Rock in W~ke County," Stephen PEARCE. Nathan UPCHURCH and William RAY. ~he deed was wit­nessed by ISilC STRICKLAND and Nathan MASSEY (Frank1in County Deed Dook 12. p. 78).

In October• 1804• KINCHEN STRICKLA.ND of Wake County sold 400 &er~~ to Joseph FREEMAN, located on SMITH's Creek "where the said STRICKLAND now lives," adjoining SULLIVAN, BENTON and HORfON (Wake County Deed Book T, p. 52). It was probably at this time KINC:t-mN movad to Georgia.

ISl;.AC STRICKLA.ND is listed on the 1790 Wake County Cens~s with one fe~le. On July 26. 1799, ISilC of Franklin County sold William MORGIN of 'i'i&sh County 95 acres on both aide:s of 1'urkey Creek, ad­joining ~ORGAN, Wm. ~ARTIN, ~olf H~rbor 3ranch, Spring Branch, and tho County Lina (Franklin County Deed 3ook J. p. 68). Tho dsed ,~s ~i tnessad by Obadiah S'IRICKLAND and ~illi2.m BRYANT. On A•Jgu:s t 7, 1799, ISAAC sold Wm. WiA.R'tIN 12 acres on Turkey CretJ: on the County Lin0, piney prong, and BOON's line (Franklin County Deed Book 3, p. 109) 'efhich was also witnessed by Obadiah STRICKLAND and William BRYA~T. The last pe.rcel of land sold by ISJ.AC in North c~rolina, was purchas~d by Phillip PEARCE on December 10. 1802, in Fre.P~lin County. It consisted of 250 acrss on the North Prong o!

LETTERS FROM THE FILES OF VlRGINIA STRICKLAND ROBERTS /

v/ ln thP ]ate 1930's and Parly 1940's, Virginia Roberts (then Virginia Strickland) corrPspondended with many people in compiling information on the various Strifk]and lines. Much of this correspondence was in connection with the thPn pending "Oil Controversy" in Conroe, Texas. Some of these lines connPcted to information Virginia already had, but much of it was bits and pieces that did not fit into the lines Virginia was working on. She saved these letters. and has now donated them to Strickland Research, Inc. We plan to occasionally print some of these lPtters in hopes they will be of help to our members.

Miss Virginia Strickland

Dear Miss Virginia,

queries printed in Strickland Scene. The following 1s a letter f~om one of our members:

"Since sending in my query, which appeared on page 58 of Vol. 3 113 of the Strickland Scene, l have found some information about my Strick­land family - perhaps enough to give someone a clue.

In Book #1 of Wills, Pike Co.~ Ohio, appears the will of Jane STRICTLING, written 4 March 1847, and probated 16 March, 1852. She lived in Sunfish township, Pike Co., OH (this adjoins Adams Co.). The writing is quite good but names are rather difficult. She names a son, JACOB, who probably was named after his father since a JACOB STRICK­LAND appears in the Pike County history as an early pioneer (possibly 1817 or 1818). She also names daughter SALLY CURRY, daughter MARY JANE FARRIS(?), daughter ELIZABETH BULLARD (the Lls have "sauiggles" u n de r t h e rn t h a t m a y i n d i c a t e s o'm e t h i n g o t h e r t h an L L s ; a n d t h e r e g o e s the family tradition of BURRI[ or BURROWS.) She also names grand­daughters MARY JANE STRICTLING and (my g. grandmother) MARIAH KEES.

There is a possibility that ALEXANDER STRICKLAND of Highland Co. is a connection. JACOB (JR.) appears in the Pike Co. Census.

Sincerely, Russell A. Williams 6306 Lakeview Blvd. ~iddleton, WI 53562"

Editor's Note: Perhaps printing the above will "jog" someone's memory or add information to someone's line. If you have further information on this family, please share it with Russell Williams.

After typing the DD YOU KNOW section, I located information which may be helpful to Mrs. Wendell Bailey, even though it does not answer her query. According to the STRICKLAND FAMILY & SOME ALLIED FAMILIES OF HALL COUNTY, GA by Sybil McRay, JOSEPH STRICKLAND's obituary was pub­lished in the EAGLE on February 20, 1880: "Mr. Joseph Strickland died Wednesday at his residence near the corporate limits of the city. He was 105 years old at the time of his death."

Ple5se let us know if you plan to have a reunion during 1983. We would like to mention it in Strickland Scene. WILMA STRICKLAND CDAlS' branch of the Stricklen-land-lin family has had a reunion for the Qast 22 years. They began meeting in 196n in the Bicknell Citv Park, Bicknell, IN, on the Sunday before Labor Day.

For those of you within traveling distance of Riverdale, G~. please make a note on your calendar of our 1983 workshop dales. If you are planning a trip, perhaps you can plan to be here for one of these dates.
