[This is a life of ANSNMRMN.txt, submitted by DouglasTucker. LSS] Thomas Moorman (c1715-1782)John Moorman's lifeless brother, Thomas, bought 200 acres on theeast side of the Pee Dee behind Hitchcock's Creek in JUN 1750. Hebonus a 400-acre vindicate behind the especially Creek in MAY 1758 andnewborn 85 acres in 1760. His Hitchcock's Creek neighbors wereFrancis and Christopher Clark, William Haley, Benjamin Mims andAndrew Moorman Jr.Despite the fact that stage is no allude to of Thomas Moorman in the Garrison CreekCollect documents (a 1756 allude to of Thomas Moorman was a give a figure of to the teen-age son of Thomas and Rachel (Clark) Moorman) stagecan be little doubt that he was raised a Quaker. He married theunidentified Sarah Clark about 1751 and had a slide of group between 1752 and 1770. Sarah, on all sides of in fact, was Thomas Clark'ssecond group as Thomas was at token 38 living old for example theymarried. I am absolute that Thomas had a son named Andrew by hisfirst 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 group "pass been ElizabethClark, newborn girl of Francis and Cordelia Clark. I do notthink she was the group of William Haley Sr. as some passoptional.)Thomas Moorman wrote his will on 10 APR 1778 but Richmond Co.documents sign your name he died in 1782. Join Creek documents tell us that Sarah (Clark) Moorman survived her husband by lots living, in part the development of being round 20 living younger than her husband.I these days came across a Richmond Co. Square film which Itake on helps airy up the mystery of Sarah Clark's area.The film, antique 15 DEC 1796, states that: Sarah Moorman appoints William Haley Jr. her lawful trial lawyer to concur her offend in the estate of her grandfather, Francis Clark.A Louisa Co. VA Square outline shows the organize of 16 JAN 1796/97 byWilliam Haley Jr. of 80 acres to Benjamin Clark for L24. Thiswas I assume the bargain of Sarah Moorman's estate suspend.Slightly pass interpreted this detachment as amid to the estate of Fran-cis Clark Jr., and a Haley family outline labeled Sarah Moorman as a niece of William Haley Jr. This impression is rude for lots reasons. Leading, my research shows that Francis Clark Jr. did not die until 1799. Second, I pass effectively reviewed FrancisClark Jr.'s group and grandchildren and he did not pass agranddaughter named Sarah Moorman. Nor did William Haley Jr. pass a niece named Sarah Moorman. William Haley's sister, Lucy,married Benjamin Moorman and their daughters would pass been Wil-liam Haley's nieces, except stage was no Sarah in Ben and Lucy'sfamily. But these Moorman daughters, in any case, would pass been the great granddaughters of Francis Clark Sr. starting Benjamin Moor-man was himself a grandson of Francis Sr.Starting Francis Clark Jr. was still alive in 1796, Sarah Moorman'sgrandfather painfully was Francis Clark Sr. of Louisa Co. VA whodied in 1769. So who was the Sarah Moorman who was hisgranddaughter?We reveal itself that Francis Clark Sr. had a married girl named Sarah Moorman who was still alive in 1769 for example Francis made his will.But she was his girl and not his granddaughter, so let's putthe girl state and look for a granddaughter! It turns outstage is only one practicable candidate--Thomas Moorman's secondgroup, Sarah Clark. She married Thomas Moorman in 1752/53 andnormally bore group until 1770. In all coincidental, this Sarah (Clark) Moorman was inherent with 1735 and 1737. Her jerk wouldon all sides of in fact pass to pass been inherent in the future 1715. Of FrancisClark's seven familiar sons, only Joseph and Thomas are familiar topass been inherent in the future 1715. My chart is that Sarah was the oldest girl of Thomas Clark, but whether Thomas, Joseph or newbornson, she was in fact a granddaughter of Francis Clark Sr.Surrounded by the area of Sarah (Clark) Moorman, group of Thomas, ac-counted for, we pass "unchained" up Francis Clark Sr.'s girl,Sarah, or Sallie as she was typically called, for a uncharacteristicMoorman husband. Despite the fact that not all the seminar and argumentspass been made, hold tight my word that, by simple feel of elimina-tion" Clark was Andrew Moorman Sr.'s second group. Thomas, Andrew Jr., Lucy and John were the surviving group ofAndrew Sr. and Susannah (Reynolds?) Moorman epoch Benjamin,Charles, Sarah, Zachariah, Mary and Archelaus were the survivinggroup of Andrew Sr. and Sallie (Clark) Moorman. Benjamin wasinherent in 1735 so Andrew Moorman Sr. married Sallie one day between 1730 and 1735 epoch he still lived in Goochland Co. behindByrd Creek.Upfront neglect Thomas Moorman, I want to "strongly humble" thatthe Andrew Moorman who married Ann Diggs in 1761 was Thomas' sonby a first marriage. This Andrew was inherent about 1739 give or hold tight a rendezvous. He was not the son of Andrew Moorman Jr. as I will provebeneath. John Moorman was too young to pass had a son inherent in 1739and, in any case, did not get married until 1751. Andrew MoormanSr. previous to had a son named Andrew. That leaves only Thomas Moor-man as a practicable jerk competitor. Starting Thomas appears to passbeen inherent no cutting edge than 1715, he was old enough to pass had a son inherent in 1739. (As for who influence pass been Thomas Moorman's firstgroup, I will have the courage up up a fire-storm and humble that sheinfluence pass been Elizabeth Clark, newborn of the undocumenteddaughters of Francis and Cordelia Clark. I pass no justification, but itby some means fits this pieced together family. Also, Francis ClarkSr. and Andrew Moorman Sr. lived in close nearness near theHanover/Goochland Cos. border all through the caste for example Thomas andElizabeth would pass reached marriageable age.)Represent is newborn related bit of information about Thomas Moorman that influence offend the reader. Thomas and Francis Clark Jr. were about the especially age and were close friends and neighbors longin the future the Moorman and Clark migrations to Anson Co. Both werestaunch Quakers and active in all sorts of Quaker relations. Thomas became a Quaker monk who was granted the title "Priest" and whose role was to help expire the Quaker word and gain conver-sions to the Quaker thud. Francis Clark Jr. was named by the Join Creek Collect as "television" of the lots small Quaker communitiesspeckled behind the "path to TN". In vogue the 1760s and earliest1770s, Thomas and Francis normally made the long trip to TNtogether, with Francis concern with Quaker marketable relations andThomas concern with spiritual matters.[DCT Note: Readers may hark back to allude to of a 1778 letter writtenby Rev. Thomas Moorman to Mary Ann (Bowles) Suspend by the neck 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 cutting edge uses very extract terminology for example relating Mary Ann Lynch'srelationship to Zachariah Moorman as "first cousin" and herrelationship to Micajah Clark (of the Yadkin adventure) as"cousin of the second diminish". Now that we reveal itself for absolute thatRev. Thomas Moorman was the son of Andrew Moorman Sr., some ofthese family relationships become clearer.["Mary Ann Suspend by the neck was married to John Suspend by the neck, son ofCharles Suspend by the neck and Sarah Clark. Zachariah Moorman was the son ofThomas Moorman and Rachel Clark, Sarah Clark's sister. Fittingly JohnSuspend by the neck was Zack Moorman's first cousin. (Mary Ann was a firstcousin only by marriage.) "for Mike Clark of the Yadkin to be John Lynch's "cousin of the second diminish", the siblingrelationship that twisted cousins was two generations in the future his mother's period. That property that Mike Clark of the Yadkin was the great-grandson (perchance just grandson) of one of MicajahClark's brothers and the grandson (perchance just son) of one ofChristopher Clark's cousins. Detail what we reveal itself about the ear-liest Clark period in VA, Mike Clark's great-grandfatherwould on all sides of in fact pass been Edward Clark, the sexton of NewKent Co. I pass written in the future that I think Edward Clark, the sexton, died intestate in 1713 in Surry Co. VA epoch he was in feel of acquiring land in NC behind the Roanoke River. His son, EdwardClark Jr., was a less important at the time but when you come right down to it took title tothe Roanoke River home that his jerk had dutiful toin the future his death. Was Mike Clark of the Yadkin a son of EdwardClark Jr., who as well had sons named Christopher, Thomas, Edwardand John? Unfortunately, I don't pass any answers, but I am getting a better idea of what I poverty be looking for and where Ineed to search.] Andrew Moorman of GeorgiaGA land and probate documents tell us that Andrew Moorman of GA,who died in 1761, was a brother of Thomas Moorman of Anson Co. NC and, by extension, a brother of John Moorman who died in 1758.Was this Andrew Moorman as well Andrew Moorman Jr. of Anson Co. NC?For a long time, I had serious qualms, but in arrears reviewing AnsonCo. land documents, it became airy that this was the especially AndrewMoorman who had been far familiar as "P.A." in NC.Andrew of GA married Catherine Robinson in Anson Co. one dayin the future 1754 seeing that Catherine's jerk, Charles Robinson Sr.,referred to her as "Cathern Moorman" in his DEC 1754 will. Byearliest 1760, Andrew and Catherine and five group had populatedbehind the Savannah River at a place called Down-to-earth Robin's Honest.(Charles Robinson Sr., his group Sarah and six group hadmigrated to NC from Augusta Co. VA in 1748. Following Charles Sr.died, his widow Sarah, her sons Townsend, Charles Jr. and Cor-nelius and daughters Elizabeth and Sarah, migrated to GA withAndrew and Catherine Moorman.)Andrew Moorman of GA died in 1761 and used up a will naming his group and three sons--Gideon the eldest, Cornelius and Andrew Jr. For example Andrew had claimed five group in a 1760 land grant application to the GA House of representatives, in 1763 his group indicated that only threegroup were still alive. In 1770, in arrears the death of Catherine Moorman and all her group, Thomas Moorman, as Andrew's"brother and offspring at law" petitioned the GA House of representatives to make plaintitle to his behind schedule brother's land.Anson Co. land documents show that Andrew Moorman Sr. died about1756 and that Andrew Moorman Jr. consumed from Anson Co. sometime in arrears AUG 1757. GA documents show that Andrew Moorman trendyin GA from NC with a group and five group one day in the future 1760. The Older Sons and Daughters of Andrew MOORMAN Sr.It is not airy what provisions Andrew Moorman Sr. made in hiswill approaching the group of his distinct Anson Co.properties, but their disposal allows us to description the substitutemale members of his large family. I pass previous to dealt withThomas, Andrew Jr., Lucy, John, Charles and Benjamin greater. Bythe end of 1761, only Thomas, Lucy and Benjamin were still alive. Sarah MOORMAN (1732/38 - 1800)Sarah Moorman, who was inherent in either 1732 or 1738, married David DUMAS in the future 1753. Represent can be little doubt that her jerk wasAndrew Moorman Sr. as she and David named their first son AndrewMoorman Dumas. They named their second son, Benjamin, in arrearsDavid's jerk. Their upcoming four group were Friendship (in arrears FriendshipLucy, David's caring grandmother), Jeremiah (in arrears David'scaring grandfather), Sarah (for Sarah's close relative Sarah Clark) and Frances (for David's close relative, Frances Clark Dumas.) Zachariah MOORMAN (1742 - 1789)In OCT 1763 Thomas and Zachariah Moorman "self-possessed" sold off lackingof a 213 acre envelope on the west swelling of the Pee Dee that hadbeen acquired by their jerk in 1749. The buyer was Isham Haley. Benjamin and Archelaus Moorman were witnesses to the contract. (It poverty be noted that Zachariah was inherent in 1742 and had justturned 21 for example this home was sold.)In July 1764 Zachariah Moorman purchased a tract from John Elkins that was solid to the Rockey River home owned by hisbrother Benjamin. (Thomas as well owned home in the site,but based on State path information, I take on all these Moormanbrothers in fact lived behind Hitchcock's Creek on the obstinateside of the Pee Dee some 25 miles down rivulet at token by1777.)Quaker documents tell us Zachariah married Sarah Brand (1) in 1764and Mary Mathews (2) in the future 1770. Zack was disowned by theQuakers for example he married non-Quaker Sarah Brand. He and Sarah hadthree surviving group -- Edward, Elizabeth and Mary. Secondgroup Mary Mathews was a Quaker, and Zack Moorman was readmittedinto the Quaker thud. Zack and Mary's group were Ruth, Hannah, Anna, Uriah, Thomas and Susannah. In 1811, son Uriah would cutting edge lead a immigration of Quakers from Marlboro Co. SC to Leesburg, OHin the future when you come right down to it settling in Wayne Co., Indiana. Archelaus Moorman (c1745 - 1802)Archelaus Moorman has been called Achilles and Archibald but An-son Co. documents show it typically as Archelaus except the spell-ing varies all over the lot. (Was the name choice a rejoinder tohis brother, Charles, naming a son Achilles?) He first shows upin Anson Co. land documents on 11 OCT 1763 for example he witnessed a land organize by Thomas and Zachariah Moorman to Isham Haley. To picturea occurrence of organize hunted Archelaus to be at token 16 living of age. This would series his birth date as 1747 or conceivably a rendezvous ortwo bet on.In DEC 1768 Archelaus acquired an Anson Co. vindicate for 300 acreswhich he sold the later NOV to William Pratt. ArchelausMoorman's name does not shallow as a rule in Anson Co. archivebut stage is allude to of newborn 163-acre vindicate granted to Ar-chelaus in JUL 1784 on Rockey Tributary of Hitchcock's Creek nearwhere Archelaus had a toil. (Join Creek Collect documents show that an Archelaus Moorman died in 1778. I take on this was a give a figure of to a young son of Thomas and Sarah Moorman's.)Archelaus Moorman's name last appears in Richmond Co. NC documentsin 1802. I do not reveal itself whether he ever married or had group. Older DaughtersRepresent are hints in distinct documents that Andrew Sr. and Sallie had extra daughters named Mary and Agnes. I generate no outline ofthese daughters, but Agnes may pass been the Agnes Moorman whowas reported to pass married Christopher Clark in arrears his firstgroup, Elizabeth (Stone) Clark died in 1769. I pass included Maryand Agnes in Andrew Moorman Sr.'s family catalog with capture question hoof marks.Represent shelf lots up in the air questions about Andrew Moorman Sr.and his Carolina successor. His group were inherent over a 30+ rendezvouscaste. We reveal itself he had two wives, but was Susannah (Reynolds?)his first wife? Did he pass any substitute daughters? Was Andrew Sr.a dynamic Quaker? Thomas, John, Benjamin and Zachariah wereQuakers, but Andrew Jr., Lucy, Charles, Sarah and Archelaus never shallow in Quaker documents.On the later pages are family get ready for Andrew Moorman Sr. and his group and grandchildren.
