Found out recently that Jincy Wood's middle marriage was to Joe Parrish. He was named in an obituary of their daughter, Verda (Parrish) Johnson.

Apparently our John Conyer died in 1861 during the Civil War, so he obviously couldn't be the father of Mary Anna (Mary Emma?) Conyer. Probably a relative, though.

Jane,

I know longer subscribe to Ancestry so can't contact you direct. I skimmed thru the post on this and not sure I listed a Ruby Lee Conyer in my post. I did look at the file my Uncle gave me that has a lot of info on Conyer but can't find Ruby or Herman. If you want to write me direct my email is vgieselman.53@comcast.net
Thanks,
Vicki

Hi there, I assuming since this came to my email that you were asking me this question. I have recently rec'd the Conyer FTM program from an uncle and it has been put on Anestery.com, do you subscribe ? I was a member at one time, I will check the tree I have and see if I can find Ruby.

Re: Conyer of Western KY

janelowemillard47 — 2011-05-01 01:31:26Z

Just in case you no longer have the other email address: Could Ruby possibly be Ruby Lee Conyer who married Herman Ziemer?

Thanks for any information.

Re: Conyer of Western KY

janelowemillard47 — 2011-05-01 01:29:49Z

Hello, I noticed you listed Ruby as one of the children. Could this be Ruby Lee Conyer who married Herman Ziemer?

lewisparr — 2011-03-12 00:01:34Z

Deborah, nice to see your note. I wish I knew more about Laura, too. I have her in the 1880 census and nothing more. My mother-in-law's Bible lists all of Jincy's children, so that is how I knew about the Hosford, Parrish and Conyer marriages. But she didn't list the husband's names. I saw the Liberty Co FL marriage record for Jincy and Wm Hosford that you saw. I still haven't found out the first name of the Parrish she married. I don't even know yet where Henry and Jincy Conyer died and are buried. Also am seeking the death dates and places for her parents, Benjamin and Percia (?) Wood. I would love to know more about Laura's institutionalization... did you find a record for this online? Feel free to email me at Lewisparr@olympus.net.
Leslie

DJPoppe — 2011-03-11 19:49:24Z

Dear Leslie,
I have been doing research on the Hosford family for many years now (started when I was a young teenager). Have been trying to find out more about William H. Hosford's marriage to Jincy A. Wood since locating their marriage record while at the Liberty County, FL Courthouse some years ago. William is my gr-gr-grandfather through his second marriage to Anna Horne. Apparently William & Jincy divorced after their daughter, Laura was born (1869?). I've discovered that Laura was institutionalized at the Florida State Hospital in Chattahooche after Jincy died in 1919 and must have remained there until her death in 1946. Currently, I'm trying to find out more about Laura & why she was placed there. I had no idea that Jincy married a 3rd time, how she died, etc. Wish I knew why she & William divorced. Any information you can share would be very much appreciated. Most Sincerely, Deborah Poppe

Hi

I know your message was posted quite awhile ago, but I am attaching a file with the info you are looking for. If it doesn't go through please let me know. It's pretty big. The last name is actually Conyers. I have also found headstones where they made an error and spelled it Conger and Conyer.

Wow alot of things match up but Uncle "Doc" was his nickname. He married in his late 50's-to Ruby (Williams)-no children-buried in Arkansas-Altus I believe. Sorry, maybe some how related. Oh, he was born in Calico Rock or Melburn.

Re: Conyer of Western KY

jgeorge25 — 2007-03-24 12:15:28Z

Not sure if this is the same George Washington Conyer I am seeking or not. Mine was born is Wilson County Tennessee and lived in Marion, Crittenden County, Kentucky. He is buried in Missouri. did he have any children, my grandmother was Driskill Conyer. Sure hope this is a match.

Re: Conyer of Western KY

naynaymusick — 2007-03-23 15:20:17Z

I had a gguncle George Washington Conyers that died in 1982 in Arkansas. My grandpa is Oren (Orven) James Conyers, he is 87 and the last of his siblings. Charlie and Harriett Conyers where his parents. But, I believe they had all been around Tenn. and Arkansas.

Captain Conyer, Charleston, SC Revolutionary War 1777

jacquelynmarshall1 — 2007-02-19 19:44:40Z

Who is Captain Conyer mentioned in Magnus Tullouk (Tulloch) Revelutionary War Pension Application?

[Page 3]
Applicant enlisted for three years under the command of John Bowie, commander of the 2nd independent company as it was at that time called, and was not attached to any regular regiment. Myself with a certain Sanders Moore were ordered to Charleston, South Carolina to Col. Huger's regiment in order to learn Mr. Moore to beat the drum and myself to play the fife. We remained at Charleston
[Page 4]
and on the Island near there for six months to learn to play the fife as aforesaid. We were at that place put under the command of Capt. Conyer. When the six months had expired and we obtained permission for Moore and myself to go to Charleston 3 miles or thereabout from the Island, we went. And as we were walking up, we met Capt. Bowie our old captain. We saluted our Capt. Conyer and Col. Huger of the 5th regiment on the Island, {who asked] for us to join him and sent me back to the Island. For that purpose I obtained the orders to join my old Capt. Bowie and done so.

Re: Conyer of Western KY

2005-04-17 22:01:09Z

Hi there! Thank you for the reply. The "J.D." that gave you the info is my father, whom I have no contact with. He is the son of Clarence (Ted) and grandson of G.W. I'm having trouble finding out when G.W. died. My records show that Addie died in 1928. My grandpa would have only been 13. When I was a child, I was told that my grandfather had been orphaned, so he joined the circus. That's where he met my grandmother.

Re: Conyer of Western KY

2005-04-16 10:53:51Z

Hello cousin:
Your grandfather and my grandmother wer brother and sister. My grandmother Driskill Conyer was the sister of your grandfather Clarence Edward (Ted) Conyer. Other children included Harry, Ruby, Marie and Hazel Most of the information I have is from a J.D. Conyer, is he any relation to you. Parents were George Washington Conyer and Addie Belle Alexander. Mr. Conyer was previously married to a Threlkeld and had two children from that union. Addie Belle was 20 years his junior when they married. He was a rather successful "stock man" but I beleive they are refering to horses as he is also described as a horse trader. I have copy of census indicating servant in quarters in 1910 or 20, will find and send a copy. Addie belle is buried in Pleasnsnt Hill Cemetery, Have been to her grave site. Not sure where George is buried family moved to Portageville, Missouri about 1916, but she returned for visit , caught fever and died. I have several references to the Conyer's brother's and sister's as well as my own recollections of my grandparents. Unfortunately I can not send it all at once, but will forward more in the not to distant future. Look forward to hearing from you.

Re: Driscoll

2005-04-13 03:40:29Z

My Great G.Parents were George W. Conyer and Addie Alexander Conyer from Critt, KY. What is your G.Mother's name? Ruby?

Re: Conyer of Western KY

2005-04-13 03:32:00Z

I have recently began searching my paternal g.father's roots. His name was C E Conyer (Ted). He was born in W. Ky. in 1914. I searched for a year trying to find out his parents' names. I sent for a copy of his ss appl. form and just got it yesterday. His father was George Washington Conyer who lived in Critt, KY. but I think he was born in TN. His Mother was Addie Belle Alexander Conyer. I have not found a birth or death date for G W yet, but Addie was born 1874 in Ky and died 1928 in Ky. Supposedly, Addie and George W are buried at Pleasant Hill Cemetery in Critt. KY.

Re: Conyer of Western KY

2005-02-20 23:59:22Z

John, I have just now started on that side of the family. I was down in Salem, Ky in Sept '04 and had an 80yr old 2nd cousin (w/a great memoy) take me out to my grandfather (Wallace Conyer), gg-grandparents (John/Harriette Conyer) grave. There were a lot of other Conyer's there. I have not seen anything on George Washington Conyer but if you want I can called Haskell to see if he knows anything about them. Haskell is actually related to my grandmother side but Haskell knew and like my grandfather a lot and knew a lot about the Conyer family. There is also a Conyer relative down there that I was told has done the family tree but he was in poor health when I was there and could not go see him. My Conyer side stops with my gg-grandfather as I can not find parents of John. Do you have anything that might realate to my direct side? I have gotten so side tracked as I tend to wander off into other lines then I get overwhelmed with info. This has not been easy Thanks Vicki

jgeorge25 — 2005-02-20 23:29:34Z

Did you ever start working on the Conyer family? If so I have some information to share, still looking for a George Washington Conyer, he and the family left Crittenden county Kentucky about 1915 and moved to Missouri. Would really like to connect on this family.

Elizabeth or Hester Conyer md a Mauzy in VA early 1700's

2004-10-29 08:25:56Z

I'm working a line that is getting very confusing for me. I'm finding a John Mauzy who married a Hester FOOTE or a Hester CONYER then sources have his mother as an Elizabeth CONYER (md Henry Mauzy). I'm am trying to figure out if John actually married someone who had his mother's surname (maiden or possibly a previous marriage) or if several sources just have the wrong generation as a CONYER. Help is very appreciated. These folks may have been in Farquier Co VA.

Thank you for your reply Bessie Mae Conyers Tucker was my grandmother. We are 2nd cousins for certain. Elizabeth is my older sister. May I mail you directly?

Re: Conyers/Locklayer 1880 Tabors, Crawford Co. Ga.

lewisparr — 2004-02-17 06:09:53Z

I saw this census, too, and am wondering if this is my husband's ancestor, Henry C. Conyers, who was born in Clarendon Co, SC around 1858 and ended up later in Florida married to Jincy Anne (Wood) Hosford Parrish Conyers. Anyone connected with this family please e-mail me at Lewisparr@olympus.net.
I don't know the connection between Locklayers and Conyers other than assuming either Mr. or Mrs. Locklayer was a sibling of Ann who married John Conyers (Henry's parents).
Thanks,
Leslie Lewis

Re: Bessie Mae Conyer Tucker

lewisparr — 2004-02-17 05:53:05Z

Cathy,
Henry C. Conyer is my husband's great-grandfather. He married Jincy Anne Wood around 1884. She had been married twice before, first to William H. Hosford, then to a Mr. Parrish. She had a daughter Laura Hosford and three Parrish children as well as the kids with Henry. My husband's grandfather is Thomas Wesley Conyer. What is your line? Would love to share info.
I found a Henry in Clarendon Co SC in 1860, age 2... parents John and Ann Conyer. This appears to be the right family, as I was told Henry had a brother Irving and there was an Ervin listed in the household. I was excited to find this, as I have been searching for his family for years.
Do you know where Henry and Jincy are buried?

James CONYER & Cath. DeHART - Grant Co KY 1850

CarterD1207 — 2003-07-08 21:40:49Z

While searching for my elusive 2nd great grandmother (Helen M. Smith Canterbury), I came across a Hellen M. Smith enumerated in the household of James (54, KY) & Catherine DeHart Conyer (48, KY). Because of the flourish-style handwriting of the enumerator, it is difficult to tell if Hellen M. Smith's age was 65 or 15! Can anyone shed light on this Hellen M. Smith of the Grant Co., KY 1850 census? There were two other's in the household as well...75 yr. old Eliz. DeHart (Catherine's mother?) & 25 yr old Joseph Sowder (a relative or farm hand?).

Thanks!

gieselman — 2002-12-10 04:15:55Z

John, I am working on my mother's side of the family at this time but when I get that finished I was going to start on the Conyer side and are hoping maybe we can help each other out. My Conyer side is from Salem, Ky, my grandfather Wallace b 1898, gg-grandfather John b. 1854 (if Familysearch web site it correct). I have done a little checking but have not run across George Washington name yet. I will stay in touch if I run across anything. Since all the Conyer's from that area have to be related would apprecate any info you get also.
Thanks, Vicki Conyer Gieselman
