Thomas Moorman (c1715-1782)
John Moorman's dull brother, Thomas, bought 200 acres on the
east side of the Pee Dee along the length Hitchcock's Tolerate in JUN 1750. He extra a 400-acre incontestable along the length the vastly Tolerate in MAY 1758 and spanking 85 acres in 1760. His Hitchcock's Tolerate neighbors were
Francis and Christopher Clark, William Haley, Benjamin Mims and
Andrew Moorman Jr.
Even as gift is no praise of Thomas Moorman in the Base camp Tolerate Apex records (a 1756 praise of Thomas Moorman was a quotation
to the teen-age son of Thomas and Rachel (Clark) Moorman) gift
can be juvenile doubt that he was raised a Quaker. He married the
inscrutable Sarah Clark about 1751 and had a slip of young be
tween 1752 and 1770. Sarah, more or less genuinely, was Thomas Clark's second husband as Thomas was at token 38 years old in the same way as they married. I am a number of that Thomas had a son named Andrew by his first marriage. This was the Andrew Moorman who married Ann Diggs
in 1761 at the Pee Dee meeting. (I think we need to consider-
whether Thomas Moorman's first husband "carry been Elizabeth
Clark, spanking daughter of Francis and Cordelia Clark. I do not
think she was the husband of William Haley Sr. as some carry
not compulsory.)
Thomas Moorman wrote his will on 10 APR 1778 but Richmond Co.
records add up to he died in 1782. Run through Tolerate records tell us that Sarah (Clark) Moorman survived her husband by several years, in part the way out of being a quantity of 20 years younger than her husband.
I lately came diagonally a Richmond Co. Entice verification which I control helps clear-headed up the mystery of Sarah Clark's line up.
The verification, publicized 15 DEC 1796, states that:
Sarah Moorman appoints William Haley Jr. her officially authorized
attorney to land-dwelling her use in the estate of her
grandfather, Francis Clark.
A Louisa Co. VA Entice line up shows the rank of 16 JAN 1796/97 by
William Haley Jr. of 80 acres to Benjamin Clark for L24. This
was most likely the kindness of Sarah Moorman's estate claim.
Convinced carry interpreted this piece as concerning to the estate of Fran- cis Clark Jr., and a Haley family line up labeled Sarah Moorman as
a niece of William Haley Jr. This remarks is sinful for
several reasons. Inventive, my research shows that Francis Clark Jr. did not die until 1799. Minute, I carry systematically reviewed Francis Clark Jr.'s young and grandchildren and he did not carry a
granddaughter named Sarah Moorman. Nor did William Haley Jr. carry
a niece named Sarah Moorman. William Haley's sister, Lucy,
married Benjamin Moorman and their daughters would carry been Wil-
liam Haley's nieces, except gift was no Sarah in Ben and Lucy's
family. But these Moorman daughters, in any instance, would carry been the great granddaughters of Francis Clark Sr. having the status of Benjamin Moor- man was himself a grandson of Francis Sr.
To the same degree Francis Clark Jr. was still luminous in 1796, Sarah Moorman's grandfather visibly was Francis Clark Sr. of Louisa Co. VA who
died in 1769. So who was the Sarah Moorman who was his
granddaughter?
We be aware of that Francis Clark Sr. had a married daughter named Sarah Moorman who was still luminous in 1769 in the same way as Francis made his will.
But she was his daughter and not his granddaughter, so let's put
the daughter state and look for a granddaughter! It turns out
gift is only one possible candidate--Thomas Moorman's second
husband, Sarah Clark. She married Thomas Moorman in 1752/53 and
normally bore young until 1770. In all try, this Sarah
(Clark) Moorman was inherent among 1735 and 1737. Her fright would
more or less genuinely carry to carry been inherent yet to be 1715. Of Francis Clark's seven usual sons, only Joseph and Thomas are usual to
carry been inherent yet to be 1715. My ballpark figure is that Sarah was the oldest daughter of Thomas Clark, but whether Thomas, Joseph or spanking
son, she was genuinely a granddaughter of Francis Clark Sr.
Counting the line up of Sarah (Clark) Moorman, husband of Thomas, ac- counted for, we carry "loose-fitting" up Francis Clark Sr.'s daughter, Sarah, or Sallie as she was forcibly called, for a defiant
Moorman husband. Even as not all the dialogue and arguments
carry been made, discipline my word that, by simple dash of elimina- tion" Clark was Andrew Moorman Sr.'s second husband.
Thomas, Andrew Jr., Lucy and John were the surviving young of
Andrew Sr. and Susannah (Reynolds?) Moorman because Benjamin,
Charles, Sarah, Zachariah, Mary and Archelaus were the surviving
young of Andrew Sr. and Sallie (Clark) Moorman. Benjamin was
inherent in 1735 so Andrew Moorman Sr. married Sallie one day be
tween 1730 and 1735 because he still lived in Goochland Co. along the length Byrd Tolerate.
Previously departing Thomas Moorman, I want to "strongly signal" that the Andrew Moorman who married Ann Diggs in 1761 was Thomas' son
by a first marriage. This Andrew was inherent about 1739 give or discipline a court. He was not the son of Andrew Moorman Jr. as I will prove
in. John Moorman was too young to carry had a son inherent in 1739
and, in any instance, did not get married until 1751. Andrew Moorman Sr. in the past had a son named Andrew. That foliage only Thomas Moor- man as a possible fright challenger. To the same degree Thomas appears to carry been inherent no successive than 1715, he was old enough to carry had a son inherent in 1739. (As for who may possibly carry been Thomas Moorman's first husband, I will luck heartening up a fire-storm and signal that she may possibly carry been Elizabeth Clark, spanking of the undocumented daughters of Francis and Cordelia Clark. I carry no evidence, but it by some means fits this mix family. In addition, Francis Clark
Sr. and Andrew Moorman Sr. lived in close friendship in the direction of the Hanover/Goochland Cos. border taking part in the platform in the same way as Thomas and Elizabeth would carry reached marriageable age.)
Impart is spanking suitable bit of information about Thomas Moorman that may possibly use the reader. Thomas and Francis Clark Jr. were about the vastly age and were close friends and neighbors long
yet to be the Moorman and Clark migrations to Anson Co. Each were
staunch Quakers and active in all sorts of Quaker interaction. Thomas became a Quaker preacher who was decided the title "Holy man" and
whose role was to help outstretched the Quaker word and gain conver- sions to the Quaker fold. Francis Clark Jr. was named by the Run through Tolerate Apex as "administrator" of the several small Quaker communities strewn along the length the "road to TN". In vogue the 1760s and before
1770s, Thomas and Francis normally made the long meander to TN
together, with Francis thing with Quaker solidify interaction and
Thomas thing with spiritual matters.
[DCT Note: Readers may talk about praise of a 1778 letter on paper
by Rev. Thomas Moorman to Mary Ann (Bowles) Sling that was pub-
lished in Allan Candler's 1902 book about his grandfather, Col.
William Candler of GA. In this letter, Thomas calls Mary Ann his
"cousin", so it is said using the cousin term generically, but successive uses very sure choice of words in the same way as voice-over Mary Ann Lynch's relationship to Zachariah Moorman as "first cousin" and her
relationship to Micajah Clark (of the Yadkin jaunt) as
"cousin of the second keep apart". Now that we be aware of for a number of that Rev. Thomas Moorman was the son of Andrew Moorman Sr., some of
these family relationships become clearer.
["Mary Ann Sling was married to John Sling, son of
Charles Sling and Sarah Clark. Zachariah Moorman was the son of
Thomas Moorman and Rachel Clark, Sarah Clark's sister. Hence John
Sling was Zack Moorman's first cousin. (Mary Ann was a first
cousin only by marriage.) "for Mike Clark of the Yadkin
to be John Lynch's "cousin of the second keep apart", the sibling
relationship that fashioned cousins was two generations yet to be his mother's generation. That form that Mike Clark of the Yadkin was
the great-grandson (in all probability just grandson) of one of Micajah Clark's brothers and the grandson (in all probability just son) of one of Christopher Clark's cousins. Definite what we be aware of about the ear- liest Clark generation in VA, Mike Clark's great-grandfather
would more or less genuinely carry been Edward Clark, the sexton of New Kent Co.
I carry on paper yet to be that I think Edward Clark, the sexton,
died intestate in 1713 in Surry Co. VA because he was in dash of
acquiring land in NC along the length the Roanoke Rivulet. His son, Edward Clark Jr., was a slim at the time but in time took title to
the Roanoke Rivulet trait that his fright had enthusiastic to
yet to be his departing. Was Mike Clark of the Yadkin a son of Edward Clark Jr., who afterward had sons named Christopher, Thomas, Edward and John? Despondently, I don't carry any answers, but I am get
ting a better idea of what I basic be looking for and anywhere I
need to search.]
Andrew Moorman of Georgia
GA land and probate records tell us that Andrew Moorman of GA,
who died in 1761, was a brother of Thomas Moorman of Anson Co. NC
and, by opening out, a brother of John Moorman who died in 1758.
Was this Andrew Moorman afterward Andrew Moorman Jr. of Anson Co. NC?
For a long time, I had severe doubts, but at the back reviewing Anson Co. land records, it became clear-headed that this was the vastly Andrew Moorman who had been a long way away usual as "Junior" in NC.
Andrew of GA married Catherine Robinson in Anson Co. one day
yet to be 1754 in the same way as Catherine's fright, Charles Robinson Sr.,
referred to her as "Cathern Moorman" in his DEC 1754 will. By
before 1760, Andrew and Catherine and five young had grave
along the length the Savannah Rivulet at a place called Needy Robin's Moderate.
(Charles Robinson Sr., his husband Sarah and six young had
migrated to NC from Augusta Co. VA in 1748. At the rear Charles Sr.
died, his widow Sarah, her sons Townsend, Charles Jr. and Cor-
nelius and daughters Elizabeth and Sarah, migrated to GA with
Andrew and Catherine Moorman.)
Andrew Moorman of GA died in 1761 and finished a will launch his husband and three sons--Gideon the eldest, Cornelius and Andrew Jr. To the same extent Andrew had claimed five young in a 1760 land grant application
to the GA Congress, in 1763 his husband indicated that only three
young were still luminous. In 1770, at the back the departing of Catherine Moorman and all her young, Thomas Moorman, as Andrew's
"brother and successor at law" petitioned the GA Congress to rationalize title to his cadaver brother's land.
Anson Co. land records show that Andrew Moorman Sr. died about
1756 and that Andrew Moorman Jr. departed from Anson Co. some
time at the back AUG 1757. GA records show that Andrew Moorman appearing in in GA from NC with a husband and five young one day yet to be 1760.
The Getting on Sons and Daughters of Andrew MOORMAN Sr.
It is not clear-headed what throw away Andrew Moorman Sr. made in his will with regard to the range of his a number of Anson Co.
properties, but their disposal allows us to give a buzz the new
male members of his large family. I carry in the past dealt with
Thomas, Andrew Jr., Lucy, John, Charles and Benjamin optional extra. By the end of 1761, only Thomas, Lucy and Benjamin were still luminous.
Sarah MOORMAN (1732/38 - 1800)
Sarah Moorman, who was inherent in either 1732 or 1738, married David DUMAS yet to be 1753. Impart can be juvenile doubt that her fright was Andrew Moorman Sr. as she and David named their first son Andrew
Moorman Dumas. They named their second son, Benjamin, at the back
David's fright. Their next four young were Deal (at the back Deal
Lucy, David's concerned grandmother), Jeremiah (at the back David's concerned grandfather), Sarah (for Sarah's father Sarah Clark) and
Frances (for David's father, Frances Clark Dumas.)
Zachariah MOORMAN (1742 - 1789)
In OCT 1763 Thomas and Zachariah Moorman "in somebody's company" sold off partly of a 213 acre scheme on the west waterway of the Pee Dee that had
been acquired by their fright in 1749. The purchaser was Isham Haley.
Benjamin and Archelaus Moorman were witnesses to the transaction.
(It basic be noted that Zachariah was inherent in 1742 and had just turned 21 in the same way as this trait was sold.)
In July 1764 Zachariah Moorman purchased a tract from John Elkins
that was like to the Rockey Rivulet trait owned by his
brother Benjamin. (Thomas afterward owned trait in the locality,
but based on Realm road prepare, I control all these Moorman
brothers in fact lived along the length Hitchcock's Tolerate on the conflicting side of the Pee Dee some 25 miles down river at token direct
1777.)
Quaker records tell us Zachariah married Sarah Anteroom (1) in 1764 and Mary Mathews (2) yet to be 1770. Zack was disowned by the
Quakers in the same way as he married non-Quaker Sarah Anteroom. He and Sarah had three surviving young -- Edward, Elizabeth and Mary. Minute
husband Mary Mathews was a Quaker, and Zack Moorman was readmitted
into the Quaker fold. Zack and Mary's young were Ruth, Hannah,
Anna, Uriah, Thomas and Susannah. In 1811, son Uriah would successive lead a flight of Quakers from Marlboro Co. SC to Leesburg, OH
yet to be in time settling in Wayne Co., Indiana.
Archelaus Moorman (c1745 - 1802)
Archelaus Moorman has been called Achilles and Archibald but An-
son Co. records show it forcibly as Archelaus despite the fact that the spell- ing varies all over the lot. (Was the name variety a corollary to
his brother, Charles, launch a son Achilles?) He first shows up
in Anson Co. land records on 11 OCT 1763 in the same way as he witnessed a land rank by Thomas and Zachariah Moorman to Isham Haley. To looker-on
a success of rank inevitable Archelaus to be at token 16 years of age.
This would start his relaxed date as 1747 or most likely a court or two earlier.
In DEC 1768 Archelaus acquired an Anson Co. incontestable for 300 acres which he sold the tailing NOV to William Pratt. Archelaus
Moorman's name does not healthy repeatedly in Anson Co. documents
but gift is praise of spanking 163-acre incontestable decided to Ar- chelaus in JUL 1784 on Rockey Twirl of Hitchcock's Tolerate in the direction of anywhere Archelaus had a abrade. (Run through Tolerate Apex records show that an Archelaus Moorman died in 1778. I control this was a quotation
to a young son of Thomas and Sarah Moorman's.)
Archelaus Moorman's name persevere appears in Richmond Co. NC records in 1802. I do not be aware of whether he ever married or had young.
Getting on Daughters
Impart are hints in a number of records that Andrew Sr. and Sallie had additional daughters named Mary and Agnes. I verify no line up of
these daughters, but Agnes may carry been the Agnes Moorman who
was reported to carry married Christopher Clark at the back his first husband, Elizabeth (Rock) Clark died in 1769. I carry included Mary and Agnes in Andrew Moorman Sr.'s family tilt with capable
question trail.
Impart interval several unsettled questions about Andrew Moorman Sr.
and his Carolina release eggs. His young were inherent over a 30+ court platform. We be aware of he had two wives, but was Susannah (Reynolds?)
his first wife? Did he carry any new daughters? Was Andrew Sr.
a practicing Quaker? Thomas, John, Benjamin and Zachariah were
Quakers, but Andrew Jr., Lucy, Charles, Sarah and Archelaus never
healthy in Quaker records.
On the tailing pages are family schedule for Andrew Moorman Sr.
and his young and grandchildren.
