There is a headstone for Letty Bannon in Stringer Cemetery, Marshall County, Indiana. Letty died March 25, 1848, aged 41 years, 8 months, 6 days. She was born about July 1806. This is the only other record I have found linking a James Bannon to someone who might be Lettice.
The book Soldiers and Patriots Buried in Indiana says Lettice m. Andrew Penland in 1827 and does NOT list Sarah as a child of Bladen. Sarah and Lettice may be the same person or Sarah may be a grandchild. | ASHBY, Lettice (I5059)

There is a historical marker honoring William Delafield as a patriot in the LaGrone Cemetery near Hallsville, Texas. He is also listed in the Roster of Texas Daughters Revolutionary Ancestors. There is also a book "Delafield - The Family History" by Brigadere General John Ross Delafield.
The marker states:
"A veteran of the American Revolution; lived in this area as patriarch of a family whose history typifies westward movement of the people of the United States. Son of Nicholas Delafield, a cooper in the English Navy in 1740s and an artisan living in Mecklenburg County, Va., as early as the 1760s. William Delafield as a lad of 16 served in the militia company of a neighbor, Capt. Reuben Vaughan, during the year 1779 when the former American colonies-- joined together against the tyranny of George III of Great Britain. In 1785 William Delafield, then 22, moved to Georgia. There he brought up a family and in 1827 was awarded land on basis of his Revolutionary War service. By 1832 he and a son Nicholas lived in Alabama, where in 1836 both received land grants in Barbour County. The son in 1846 settled here in Harrison County, Tex. By 1850 William Delafield also lived here, where he was known to neighbors as an elderly man who sat in a rocking chair relating stories of old times. He had lost a leg, probably in frontier fighting in Georgia against the Indians. His descendants include persons who have attained distinction in military and civilian life in Texas and other states."

To His Excellency Patrick Henry, Esquire
Governor of Virginia
Sir,
The power of pardoning for Felonious Offences being left with you & the Hin'ble the Council of Stste, we beg leave to address you in behalf of William Delafield now under sentence of death for horse stealing..
Although we exercise the crime & are sensible that the most vigorous infliction of the laws of our Country should attend it's conviction--Yet, Sir, as the Mercy of our country thro' your Excellence (word unintelligle) is often extended to Offenders of this rank; permit us, urged by a hope, that (as this is the first) it will be the last offence of this nature the unhappy man will commit; to offer our Intreaties, accompanied by our wishes, that he may receive a pardon.
We might here mention several alleviating Circumstances, that might operate with your Excellency in this consideration; but will only observe the anxiety of an aged Father for an only Son, a Father whose Tenor of life (from a long couple of acquaintance) has ever been esteem'd moral & irreproachable;--& the Son (this instance excepted) as far as we know or have heard has never been charged with offence.--
The sincear desire we are persuaded that rests with your excellency, to comply with every request of this sort, --not incompatible, with the security and dignity of the Citizens over whom you preside; & the instances that have been attended with Happy effects during your administrations, prompts us to Hope our Request will be granted. --& with the Highest Respect subscribe ourselves.
Sir, Your excellencys most obedient & most Hbe servts.

American Revolutionary War Patriots Buried In Texas:
William Delafield was another firebrand young man born in 1763 in Virginia, who served in the American Revolution as a substitute for a friend. In 1785 he was charged with stealing a horse, and sentenced to death! He received a pardon from Governor Patrick Henry and sentenced to hard labor for three years, however, he escaped from public jail and went to Georgia where he married and had a two sons and lost a leg fighting Indians. In 1850 he moved to Texas to live with his son Nicholas who had already migrated to Texas. William Delafield died in 1860 in Harrison County, Texas and was buried in a family farm cemetery located near LaGrone's Chapel. In 1972 there was a Texas Historical Marker placed on his grave, but no SAR or DAR marker has been placed on his grave. | DELAFIELD, William (I5431)

There is a J P Burford listed in the Death Index, died 1913, California. There is a J P Burford at Cemetery Park in Ventura, no dates. Since Philip R is buried there, I believe this is our James. I've found nothing else for James. | BURFORD, James Polk (I2476)

There is a James Dicus, age 15 [1835], born Kentucky, on the 1850 census for Robertson County, District 6, pg 44B (stamped) or 87(written). In 1860, he is 23 [1837] and joined by E Dicus, age 45 [1815], born Virginia, dwelling/family # 532/529.
It's possible that both Phinis and Mary were married previously with John and Josie belonging to one or the other. Sabrina's birth date is probably actually 1848, instead of the 1847 recorded on her death record. The 1860 says she is 11 - turning 12 in October would put her born during the marriage. | DYCUS, Phinis Ewing (I11080)

There is a large disagreement over the spelling of Mary Ann's surname but I believe it was either Erwin or Ervin. Her parents are supposed to be David Erwin and Alcie Ragan. There is a lot of misinformation but these parents make the most sense. Mary Ann's brother Enos, who married the same day their sister Louise did, later went by Enos Ervin and I believe this is where the confusion began. The other surnames, Irving and Irvin, are simple misspellings of that. | ERWIN, Mary Ann (I8841)

There is a letter of recommendation from the Baptist Church of Christ in Monroe co Al to whomever is concerned for Silas Ivey and his wife Catherine Ivey to be accepted into membership when they reached their destination.

There is a William Brazell in Coffee, Alabama, in 1855. I don't have any details for it.
First panel Y-DNA results are in for newest participant John D. Brazzil (2nd great grandson) of Canyon, Texas. He scored an exact match to the English Bracewell haplotype carried by other descendants of Rev. ROBERT BRACEWELL (1611-1668)--
13-24-14-10-11-14-12-12-12-13-13-29. | BRAZZIL, William (I1750)

| 7685 |
There is also a William and Sarah Ivy in Harrison County in 1860 but the Sarha is shown 10 years older. This is probably the William from Freestone County who was married to Deborah but I can't prove it. It seems the Ivy family used the same names time and again. | IVEY, William Franklin (I6052)

There is an 1840 Federal Census record for a Matilda Hendrix in Addison Township, Shelby County, Indiana.

1, 10-15 1826-1830 Nancy and Hulda
1, 30-40 1801-1810 Matilda
If this is our Matilda, the kids don't match up to the 1850. Where are Artinia/Artemicia and Dudley? Did they lose a boy? | BEASLEY, Matilda (I14902)

There is an account of an Indian attack which says:
"In 1780, the Indians came suddenly upon Andrew Armstrong and took him prisoner with his oldest child and Nancy Bundy. His wife who was enceinte, concealed herself under the bed and escaped."
I do not know if this is our Andrew but it occurred in the valley of the Susquehanna.
He probably died in Kentucky. | ARMSTRONG, Andrew H (I540)
|
| 7689 |
There is an argument as to whether William died at Sugar Creek Township or Pea Ridge, Arkansas, or Sugar Creek in McDonald County. Big Sugar Creek actually begins in Benton County, Arkansas, and runs into Mountain Township, McDonald County, Missouri, where it meets Little Sugar Creek at Pineville so it could be either one. The Pea Ridge Battlefield is located in Sugar Creek Township. Perhaps he died as a result of the battle instead of being bushwhacked. | COMSTOCK, William Decatur (I11646)

|
| 7695 |
There is another John William Dinning born in Simpson County to David and Sarah Dinning but I believe the next item is our John because he always lived with or close to a family member. He is also listed as not being able to read and write. I'm unsure of the wife named Bettie.
Possible listing of John William:
"2nd Tennessee Cavalry Battalion, Company F, organized September 27, 1861, at Bowling Green, Kentucky. Became Company B, 6th Tennessee Cavalry. They furnished their own horses and arms. Their horses were given a value to be paid if the horse was lost in service. They were to receive 40 cents per day for use of horse. These sums were seldom, if ever paid. These men were from Sumner County and their records are almost impossible to find. We here give you the names of these men, the value placed on their horses, and as much as possible their service records. Volume I, "Tennesseans in the Civil War" states that their records were among the worst kept:
(Note: Below is the only Denning in the list)
"Denning, John Will - Horse valued at $175. He was listed in battles at Snow Hill, and Iuka, Mississippi. He was shocked by a concussion from a shell exploding near his head. He was unconscious for eighteen hours. He was captured there. Paroled at Burnsville, Mississippi on November 20, 1863 after taking the Oath." Source: http://hometown.aol.com/cathelk/sumner/keen.htm
