Her husband may have been Cliff Faircloth. I think they lived in Decatur Co., Georgia.

Re: Jane Faircloth, yes I'm still looking and learning more

nfaircloth44 — 2009-09-12 23:32:26Z

That Johnson connection has possibilities. Jane Faircloth was living in Catfish Township in 1870-1880. I'll look into to that. thanks so much

Re: Jane Faircloth, yes I'm still looking and learning more

RebeccaEvaYates — 2009-09-12 20:01:25Z

Also, I'm beginning to research the Johnsons from that area. From everyone I talk to and all the names from the Robeson County and other counties in the area, everyone is connected by marriage or etc. It is very hard to reason because of the multiple marriages and marriages with cousins and marriages with same last names.

Re: Jane Faircloth, yes I'm still looking and learning more

Did you look in my public family tree Migaration journeys. I don't know if you are the one I sent this letter to the other day or not. But, Mary Carol Faircloth was my sister and I traced her branch to the year 1054 or there abouts. Rebecca Eva Faircloth-Yates

Jane Faircloth, yes I'm still looking and learning more

nfaircloth44 — 2009-09-10 19:45:18Z

Jane, maybe Mary Jane Johnson Faircloth. Born North Carolina around 1850. Mother Mary Johnson. Probably of mixed English and Native American heritage. Was a widow by 1870. Any information welcomed, any constructive help very welcome.

Re: Faircloths from Kent,England

teecozy — 2009-07-01 15:25:05Z

Hi
I am also looking for Edward Faircloth - and his (supposed) brother Joseph born 1807 also in Canterbury. They are proving very elusive!

I found who I think is Edward, aged about 25, in the 1841 census - living in Margate with a Joyce and James Holoway - as a male servant; either theirs or that was his job.
In the 1851 census he is married to his first wife Elizabeth and is a laborer. They have 2 children, Caroline and Richard.
I can't find him in the 1861 census - but in the 1871 census he is living with his second wife Mary Ann and their 6 children including 7 year old Mary Anne, your great great Grandmother.
I hope this is some help to you

Regards Teecozy

Re: Help on Sampson County, NC Faircloth & Spell connections.

Tonks4 — 2009-06-11 14:45:03Z

I found a Thomas Spell in early Tarboro History. Thomas was a tobacco merchant. He was born in 1714. John Spell was his son. John's son Lewis married Moriah Faircloth. I trace my roots through Lewis' son John, and John's son Lewis to William Spell (born in 1842). William was my grandfather's father.

Could this be part of the family you are tracing? Not sure if I picked up all the correct threads.

Faircloth's from Norfolk

Charles Faircloth

DarleneUnderhill — 2009-06-04 22:26:59Z

I am just beginning my search and starting with my grandfather Charles Jennings Faircloth, born in North Carolina- I believe in Stedman. His father's name was Walter. (mother possibly Gertrude).He was in the service in Hawaii, also lived in Virginia and eventually moved to Massachusetts with wife Vera and 4 daughters. He had a brother William King Faircloth who also lived in Massachusetts, and a sister Clara Proctor. His father's sister was Jennybelle Faircloth. Charles retired in Florida where he died in 2000.

Re: Help on Sampson County, NC Faircloth & Spell connections.

medicvande — 2009-06-14 14:57:29Z

Looks like I fit in here too!

My line is William Faircloth b 1815 & Nancy Vann b 1822
Evander Faircloth b 1860 and Martha J Spell b 1963
Doctor Kelly Faircloth b 1889 and Grace E Mason b 1894
Arthur T Faircloth b. 1921 and Bettie Wright b 1922 - these are my grandparents

My grandfather played football at NC State before going to war and then played for the NY Giants in the late 1940s.

I'm really confused about the volume of Faircloth/Spell marriages though. This is making it tough for a novice!

I'm happy to share any information I have that may fit into your trees!

Have you looked for tombstone information in the Spell cemetary?

Edward Faircloth

broshire — 2008-10-11 19:45:12Z

I have some tentative information that I may be descended from one Edward Faircloth and his wife Abigail Harrison, daughter of Isaac and Judea Harrison. Edward was born about 1760 in Pasquotank County and died 1801-1810 in Camden County, NC. It is believed that he had a daughter, Rosanna, who was my 3rd great grandmother. It would seem that Abigail Harrison would have been born about 1765 give or take a few years, and that her parents Isaac and Judea were probably born in the 1740's. Does anything sound familiar?

I have little information on Hardy. He and his brother John were both soldiers for the Duplin County Militia in the revolutionary war. They were the sons of William and Sarah Faircloth. Hardy is one of my GGGGrand uncles? Another of his brothers is my GGGGGrandfather. his name was Raiford.

Unfortunately, I have no information on lines from his other children. I did just find out that He and his brother Hardwick (my 4th great uncle were soldiers in the Revolutionary war. THey were in the Duplin County Militia.

Re: Native American

Mfaircloth19791 — 2008-11-27 08:10:08Z

I cannot say for sure, but I have a Martha Jane Faircloth in my family. Born 1853. However I dont have anything about a Brock as a child. She was married to my 2nd G Grandfather Raiford.

Re: Native American

Mfaircloth19791 — 2008-11-27 08:00:56Z

I agree with the anger that can be felt from post like that. However the records that I have found all show my oldest 3 relatives (ll faircloths) coming from Warrington and Chorly Lancashire England.

It is fact that by the 1600's that Native americans were not as a whole in the colonies, but like america now, was partially a mixed population. It may be that some of them married native americans. But that would have been after coming here. The fact is, We are from England, plain and simple.

Re: Faircloths from Kent,England

Mfaircloth19791 — 2008-11-27 07:52:36Z

Hello,

I have traced my family back to around that time to Chorly and Warrington, and they too settled in Isle of Wight, and then Sampson county. Would love to speak with you on this. Thanks.

Arthur, Amos James Faircloth was my paternal grandfather. I recently decided to end the mystery about his father and ordered a copy of his death certificate. It states that Amos James Faircloth's father was, in fact, John R. Faircloth and his mother was Lizzie Coleman. I have found several sources showing John R. Faircloth's father was Alexander but have not confirmed that with reliable sources yet. Jack could have been John R's nickname. ??

I am researching my ggg grandfather, Sanford Wilkerson/Wilkinson born around 1864 in GA (married my ggg grandmother, Matilda Starling) and stumbled upon the name Sophia Faircloth. In the 1880 census, Sanford's mother, Elizabeth Wilkinson(born 1848?) had Sophia Faircloth listed as her mother. I was wondering if Elizabeth Wilkinson might be the Sarah Elizabeth Wilkinson who married Daniel D. Faircloth and if so, why the census says that she was a widow and why her name is still Wilkinson and not Faircloth. If someone could shed some light on this, it would be much appreciated.

You should include a little more about yourself. Like what is your mom's name, when were your parents born, do you know your grandparents? Give a little more info. and I'm sure someone could help you. For instance do you know Roc's legal name?
