His siblings included LydiAnn (b. 1836, Amos (b. 1840),and Samuel Hancock (b. 1849 and married to Julia LIPPINCOTT). If this is the correct Nelson, please drop me an email. I have more information.

NanaNat57 — 2009-09-17 14:07:37Z

Thanks for your response. Do you have dates on John O. and your Robert? My great great grandfather, Robert Creely (sometimes spelled Creilly) married Mildred Dandridge in Lawrence County, Alabama in 1841 and this as far back as I can get with him. It is like he just "appeared" there. My great grandfather was James Lewis (Jimmie) Creely and my grandfather was Norman Jones Creely. My father is 80 and is still living.
The more Creely males that participate in the DNA testing, the better chance we have of making connections.
Let me know if you are interested in the DNA connections. I have upgraded my father's test to the Y46 in hopes of a closer relative matching up but so far no Creelys. I assume none have entered the testing pool.
I live in Itawamba County, Mississippi. Where are you from?

Hi Natalie,

My grandfather was Robert Creely, His father was a John O. Creely. That is where our trail runs dry. We know they migrated from the East Coast. We know that John O. Creely was a traveling salesman. We also know that he was with my grandfather's mother for less than ten years and that they had 4 boys together.
As far as a DNA on the creely side - I am not sure. Will have to research.

My great-great grandfather was Robert Creely. He arrived in
what is now Lee County, Mississippi around 1848 and purchased land which remains in the Creely family. I know that he had a son named Robert Creely (may be your grandfather).
I recently had my father, 80 years old, send in the DNA test to Ancestry.com. Has any male in your family chosen
to do this? The more people that participate the better the
chances of finding a common ancester. Let me know if you are interested.

Hilda L (CREELY) Burlington, NJ family

dklingler — 2008-01-17 19:46:21Z

I am looking for a connection with the LINCOLN family in Burlington, NJ and I believe that the Hilda L that married Ashbrook LINCOLN is Hilda L CREELY b.12 Oct 1915 in Burlington, dau of Nelson and Alice S. CREELY.
Nelson (married, then with family) shows in the 1910-1930 Census in Burlington. In 1900, also in Burlington, he is with his parents and Family: Samuel H and Julia H (LIPPINCOTT) CREELY, just down the street from Samuel's brother and his namesake Nelson P and Mary CREELY.
While Nelson was born in NJ, Samuel and Nelson P and Amos too, were born in PA in the mid to late 1840s but I can't find them.
Any help with any of this would be appreciated, particularly the LINCOLN/CREELY connection part.

I am seeking information on I am seeking information on the following:
Sarah Jane Wilkins b. 1868 Jackson Co., Texas; d. November 13, 1945 Mills Co., Texas
married (1) James Brown **I have no information other than his name.** They had 1 child-Carrie Luecrecia Brown b. August 15, 1889 Sweethorne, Texas (this is from Granie's Bible); d. September 06, 1969 Austin, Travis Co., Texas; Carrie m. George Anzel Pratt 11-11-1903; b. 8-9-1879 Kennedy, Texas d. San Gabriel, Milam Co., Texas son of Robert Pratt b. 1845-1846 Maine & Mary E. Moses b. Dec 1856 Arkansas-Mary m. (2) James H. Brandon.
Carrie m. (2) Collie B. Burris 2-15-1936 Goldthwaite, Mills Co., Texas.

Sarah m. (2)Robert Fryer (spelling variations Fryar, Friar)1900 Cuero, DeWitt Co., Texas. Robert was b. 1871 Leon Co., Texas d. abt 1909 San Saba, Texas. They had 1 child - George Fryer-lived in San Antonio, Bexar Co., Texas at the time of her death. (Family legend says that his name was Jack-the obituary says George.)

Sarah m. (3)John Green Kelly marriage date unknown. John was b. 1858 in possibly Montgomery Co. or Frio Co., Texas, d. abt 1938 Texas.
They had 1 child - Charlie Kelly-lived in Los Angeles, California at the time of her death. I have no further information on him.

The only other information I have for Sarah Jane Wilkins is that she has a niece named Susie Wilkins who lived in
Morse, Okfuskee Co., Oklahoma; Star Route in care of J. J. Whitson in 1918. I have a copy of letter that the niece wrote to Mr. J. (looks like S.) & S J Kelly when they lived in Beaukiss, Texas. (I think that is Bastrop Co., Texas.)

Sarah lived in Goldthwaite, Mills Co.,Texas at the time she passed away.

Her obituary mentions her granddaughter, Mrs. Hoyt Creely of McGregor, step children-Alozo Kelly of Goldthwaite, Mills Co., Texas, Berry Kelly of San Saba Co., Texas, and Mrs. Posie Hagerton of Abilene, Taylor Co., Texas.

Any information/documentation, etc. on these people, parents, siblings, spouses, children would help tremendously.

Thanking you in advance for your assistance.

Re: Mary Creely Wylds

Hey, this does sound familiar to me. I was working on a senior geneaology project, and I found Mary Creely. She was definitely married to David Wylds (I have him born 10.12.1793). She was born in 1808 too. My relation to Mary is through her daughter, Amelia Wylds. Amelia married John R. Lamb. Hope this helps. If you have any interesting information on Mary or her family, I would be pleased to learn it. Thanks.

Re: Creely to Crelia Connection

TamaraStevens72 — 2005-05-28 10:27:45Z

Hi Dorothy,
I have also seen the info that Jane was first married to a Mr. Creeley. I have surmised, but found no proof, that she was either married to Isaac or William. The families were living in the same general area and had other marriages. William was killed in the war, Isaac disappered during that time frame and was probably killed as well. The only other option for Isaac is that he began using a different last name after the war. I've searched high and low for info on both these boys, to no avail.

I have checked in the following counties for Jane Fleming & Creeley marriage: Van Buren (where she lived), White, Warren & DeKalb.
The Warren count clerk sent me a list with this information on it:
James M. Creeley married Tempy Dodson Jan. 18, 1855
Thomas S. Myers J. P.

Re: Creely to Crelia Connection

2004-07-20 18:28:27Z

I have been checking the census for Van Buren County TN.
On the 1850 census there is an Isaac age 9 but no William.
On the 1860 census there is a William age 17, but no Isaac.
What is the chance that William & Isaac are one and the same?

Re: Creely to Crelia Connection

dnehr1964 — 2004-07-20 15:16:13Z

I have a Jane Fleming (b: 1838-1840) to John & Nancy Combs Fleming. Family history has her married to a ? Creeley. She is with parents on the 1850 & 1860 Van Buren TN census.
I have found no proof of any marriage for her. Her second husband was suppose to have been Denton Rhoades, but I don't think that is correct either.
Do you think her first husband could have been Isaac Creeley?

Re: Creely to Crelia Connection

txtammy — 2004-03-08 04:57:47Z

Hi Nancy,
I'm pretty sure Isabel Creely is related to my Crelia family but lack documented proof of that fact.
My GGG Grandfather, James T. Creeley was first found in White Co., TN on the 1812 tax list. He married Levicey Webb and had children James Francis Marion Creeley, Angeline, Isaac, William, Sion C. and Margaret Cecelia 'Cassie' Creeley. His sons Isaac and William went to the war in 1861 and never returned. James F.M. and Sion C. ended up in Texas spelling the name Crelia.
I believe the following are all related to James T. Creeley -- Sarah Creeley b. 1788 who married Joseph Haston; Creeley, Polly marr. Smith, Joseph on 17-Jun-1800; and Creely, Isabel marr. Stickley, Christian on 05-Oct-1802 in Knox Co. TN (This should be Christopher Steakley). Also living near them was Pruitt, Isaac who marr. Stickley, Polly on 25-Mar-1803. These families were all neighbors later in White Co., TN.
One of Sarah Creeley Haston's grandsons who fought in the civil war and filled out a Tenn. Veterans Questionnaire said that Sarah came from Germany. Of course he was about 90 when he answered the question - so that may or may not be correct.
I have never had any luck finding their parents, but I have several theories. Let me know if you'd like to hear them.
