Thomas Floyd born about 1680 and his wife Joanna Goodson of Isle of Wight County Virginia

Descendant Indented Chart

Thomas Floyd (1071), b. circa 1680 at Isle of Wight County, VA+Joanna Goodson (1072), b. 1670 at Isle of Wight County, VA (For a period of time I guessed at this birthdate based on the following thoughts: Joanna was called Floid in her father's will so her marriage to Matthew Lowry must have happened after that date. She bore two sons, Matthew and James Lowry to her second husband and that would limit her age to mid thirties at time the Lowry boys born. I subtracted 30 something from 1724 and came up with the estimated birth date. However, while entering the data for the land purchase in 1711by Thomas and Francis it dawned on me that its possiblethe Lowry children were step children. This allows me to push her birth date back. Don Floyd also thinks her birthdate is about 1675), m. circa 1690 (Note from MVW in 4-04: It appears that Matthew Lowry her second husband) knew and/or was a friend of Joanna's first husband, Floyd. Therefore, I suspect her first husband was named Thomas since Matthew and Thomas owned adjoining property. Also, Thomas Floyd witnessed a 1711 land sale inIsle of Wight where Thomas Pitt sold land to Matthew Lowry. Thomas Pitt was the father of aHester Pitt who married into the Bridger family. The Goodsons and Bridger family were neighbors. On the other hand Don Floyd has this opinion:The Francis Floyd who was witness to the sale of land on June 8, 1698, by Richard Reynolds Sr. to Richard Reynolds Jr., is a candidate for being the first husband of Joanna Goodson. The deed noted that the land was in occupation of Edward Goodson, William West, John Tyler and Richard Reynolds. Edward Goodson, of course, was the father of Joanna Goodson. This Francis Floyd may have died about 1720),1 d. 1736 at Isle of Wight County, VA (She had four children by her first marriage to a Floid: Francis, Thomas, George, and Joseph Floid. Her executor was George Floid so he likely was the eldest. She is called Floid in her father's will dated 1724 meaning that her second marriage to Matthew Lowry took place after that date. She must have been rather young as she bore two more children following her second marriage or the two Lowry children were step sons which I believe is more likely)

├── George Floyd (1081), b. circa 1691 at Isle of Wight County, VA (I am assuming he is the eldest as he is named as executor in his mother's will in 1736), d. after 17362

├── Joseph Floyd (1076), b. circa 1692, d. after 17363

├── Francis Floyd (1074),4 b. circa 1693 at VA, d. 30 Dec 1760 at Edgecomb, NC (Abstracts of Wills of Edgecomb Co., NC by William and Griff shows Francis Floyd died 12-30-1760 and left wife Elizabeth and son Parraman)

│ +Elizabeth Bell (1105),5 b. circa 1720, m. before 1751 at Edgecomb, NC (She is called Elizabeth Floyd in her father's will dated 1751),6 d. after 1761 (She was mentioned in her husband's will dated 1760. She may have died shortly after as an inventory was taken and the perishable estate was ordered sold. she had been given the use of the land, mill and plantation during her widowhood)7

│ ├── Parraman Floyd (1106), b. circa 1740 at Edgecomb, NC, d. after 1795 at Warren, GA (Note though that Paramin Floyd listed as killed 9-14-1780 (Revolution). This taken from the muster of Capt. Joseph Marshall's Co. Kings Rangers, Augusta, Ga)8

HI!

I am a DRAKE researcher and came here looking for information about Penuel Floyd.I see there has been some prior discussion on this list which I cannot find regarding a theory about Penuel and the Drakes.

Penuel Floyd was mentioned in the 1785 Nash Co estate papers of Nathaniel Drake along with Delilah. An old family letter states that Nathaniel Drake married Delilah Floyd--of this I think there can be no doubt.

I had assumed that Penuel must have been Delilah's brother, but perhaps from what has been posted he was her (natural) son.

It gets more interesting, for Nathaniel Drake, son of Nathaniel, calls Penuel his"brother-in-law" and also mentions his "brother" Diocletian Drake Floyd in his will. This "brother" Diocletian was known asDyer Drake and left descendants under the surname Drake. Based on this data I had guessed that perhaps Dyer was a natural child of Nathaniel Drake and Delilah Floyd born before their marriage. Perhaps there was more than one, if she had a base-born child named Penuel!! What if Penuel is a (sort-of)sound-alike for Nathaniel?

Would like to hear more about the theory I missed, for I am trying to work out the Nathaniel Drake tree.Thanks.

His brothers, John W. Floyd and Thomas Beckwith Floyd,are reported by other researchers to have moved to Georgia first and built homes there. Then Penuel Jr., along with his sisters, Sarah Floyd and Susannah Floyd, and his mother, Sarah Beckwith Floyd, moved to Georgia about 1835.

According to my material, here are all the siblings of Dolphin: Elizabeth Floyd Whitfield, Mary Braswell, Temperance Floyd Griffin, John W. Floyd, Thomas Beckwith Floyd, Delilia or Deliah or Delilah Floyd Jones, Penuel Floyd Jr., Sara Floyd and Susan Floyd Davidson.

Dolphin and siblings were the apparent children of Penuel Floyd Sr., who died intestate in 1815 in Nash County, N.C. Penuel Floyd Sr. was the son of Delilah Floyd who later married Nathaniel Drake.

According to my material, Dolphin arrived in Georgia aboutabout 1825, but that is not confirmed. We do know that he first appeared in Texas records in 1832.

He was dead by 1830 because the U.S. Census record for Pulaski showed Mourning Floyd to be the head of the household. A July 1828 entry in the minutes of the Inferior Court (now Probate Court) of Pulaski County showed this: “A return of the expenditures onthe estate of David Duhart deceased made by Furney F. Gatlin adm on the estate of D. Duhart, decd. Paid Federick Floyd, proven acct. – $2.00”(This is in conflict with the 1825 date of Administration letters given to Mourning Bass.

230Letter from Doris Dixon (Rt. 2 Bx 468 Cochran, GA 31014) to MVW, Feb 29 2000; MVW file (Pinellas County, FL). A handwritten note from Doris says: I have not been able to determine who the father of Zachariah and Zenos is. The legend is they were a large family in North Carolina. These two boys were bound out to Quakers for their keep. They became very unhappy and ran away - making their way to Pulaski County and some surrounding counties. When asked who their father was, they replied "As far as we are concerned we don't have one." As you can see, they certainly are not twins (check birthdates).231Ibid.

Even though we knew it was coming it is still something we are unprepared to accept. I put my arms around both of you. You have both been so steadfast and loving and I am so very happy that Annette and even Becky was able to be with her one more time. Aunt Shug is an icon of the family as is Bob for all the time he has put into her care. She has been a part of my life since I was a baby. I know she was the same for both of you. Her passing is a terrible loss, but more than that, her life was a wonderful gain for so many people. She lived a good and useful life and showered love on so many people. It was a life lived to its fullest potential. Who can ask for more than that? Therefore, we must rejoice and be glad. We must celebrate a job well done. It is not a time for sadness, but rather a time for joy and reaffirmation. She would not want sadness. Lets rememberher with great joy. My favorite story is the one told by Bob. We all know what a terrible driver she was. Bob once said, "you can tell she was taught to drive by a blind man." Lets each tell those "Shug Stories." I want to be there for the funeral. Please let me know the plans as soon as possible. Love and great hugs for both of you. Margot)

Floyd who was a possible father of the right approximate age. I based this on Joseph H. Floyd ( Joe )'s year of birth - 1902. I have current access to an online 1900 Federal Census. When I looked up John J. 's Family by looking in Pulaski County, GA census data, I found the following: John J. Floyd Head of Household Nancy E. wife Henry son James A. son Emma daughter Morgan H. son Since your mom says that Joe, Morgan, Will and other older brother's mother was a Coody and Morgan's name is listed as a son, it seems very likely that John J. and Nancy were Joseph ( Joe ) Floyd's parents.
