section of Union County with his second wife Holly and son Jackson Albert at
the time of the 1880 census. Prior to living there he and his first wife
Louisa lived in Chesterfield Co., SC 1840-until her death abt.1870. Jackson
appears to have been born abt. 1812 to a Nancy KEY. There were 3 older bros. and one sister. I believe her name
was the same as her mothers, (Nancy). Jackson's two older children by Louisa,
John and William David KEY
moved to Cabarrus Co NC abt 1890. They later started spelling their name KEE. |

WATKINS |
I am looking
for information about the Watkins
family who were in Anson County NC and came there from Louisa County
VA. My 3rd Great Grandfather was born there either in 1782 or 1783. His
name was James Watkins and he was
the son of Israel Watkins and
Mary Tucker. He
was married to Jennie (probably a nickname) Thornton. Is there anyone who knows anything about him or
his wife's family? I know his Grandfather was William Watkins and his Grandmother was
Keziah Snead Watkins. They
moved to NC from VA along with the Snead family
sometime before Israel was born in 1769 in Anson County. |
