Some researchers have Chana Boren as a possible parent, but that has been disproven. Lineages, Inc.

believes parents are Absolom Boring (b. 1765/7) and Hannah Little. Any conclusions are speculative at

best. Family stories say he moved to Monroe County from the Chilhowie area which is in Blount County,

TN.

1880 Monroe Co TN census for Ezekiel W. Boring shows mother born in VA.

Buried Borin Family Cemetery.

From family stories, believed to have died in childbirth. If so, and the child also died, it would account for

the 24th child family says John Doss had. This is specualtion.

 

 

John and Maryann had the following children:

 

+ 2 M i. Ezekial Wilson BORING  was born on 24 Jul 1819. He died in 1899/1900.

Buried in Conasaga Cemetery reads John D Boring 25 Jan 1834 10 Mar 1911.

Tombstone has 25 Jan 1834 which seems unlikely due to twins birth next day unless

triplets?

1860 Monroe Co TN census shows Joushua Bowering age 15 TN Dist 18 HH 1804/

1824 (Jul).

Someone had marriage date to Margret Porter 13 Mar 1851 - too young, that was

James son of John born 1805 who married Rachel Murray..

Some also show marriage to Sarah Webb in 1868 but possible death is 1862. The

James that married Sarah Webb was Ezekiel's son.

Some say moved to Grayson County, Va, but believe death in 1862 would have

prevented that.

Second Generation

 

 2. Ezekial Wilson BORING  (John Doss) was born on 24 Jul 1819 in , Monroe, Tennessee. He died in 1899/1900.

 

Ezekial W Boring is believed to be a twin with Maranda Boring.

Ages given in various records range from 1814 to 1819 for birth year.

If 1814 is correct, Ezekiel may not be John Doss's son since John Doss would have been 15 when born.

Also can not account for in 1830 & 1840 census records.
