Richard Sullens

jsullins140 — 2009-09-04 18:10:55Z

Anyone have any info on him? He was born in about 1720 in the British Isles somewhere. He was said to be a Scotch/Irishman (a Scot living in Ireland supposedly). He came to Virginia in the 1750s. I'm looking for his parents and place of origin.

I've got his parents and all that, but Lavender is his middle name, and I'm curious as to what the 'M' (his first initial) stood for. So if you know, that'd be cool.

Hello. I am the great grand daughter of Wiley Sullens. I have some information if you would like it. Maybe we can share.

Doc Alexander & Odessa Fern (FARR) SULLENS

MichaelColeMD — 2007-03-24 05:09:46Z

Can anyone help identify Doc Alexander SULLENS (2 Nov 1907 - 12 Nov 1968)? He was buried at Mansfield Cemetery, Tarrant Co., Texas. His wife was listed on his tombstone as Odessa Fern SULLENS, born 26 June 1913, no death date.

From the Texas Birth Records, Kathleen Fern SULLENS was born on 28 Dec 1947 to Doc Alexander and Odessa Fern (FARR) SULLENS.

I cannot find Doc Alexander SULLENS on the census of 1930.

Dock SULLENS (age 12) appeared with his parents, Lee (age 36) and Mollie (age 30) SULLENS, on the census of 1920 at Denton Co., TX.

I believe this is the same family that appears on the census of 1910 at Denton Co., TX, as Jessie L. (age 29, born in TN) and Mollie A. (age 21, born in TX) SULLENS. They had been married for 3 years. There were no children listed in this household in 1910.

The closest match in 1900 is Lee J. SULLINS (born Mar 1881, TN), a farm laborer, age 19. He was on the census of 1900 at Civil District 2, Coffee Co., TN, living with William (b. Oct 1865) & Mary (b. Feb 1872) LOWE.

Can anyone tell me the previous SULLINS/SULLENS generation?

Re: William SULLENS

2006-09-19 16:25:37Z

I'm trying to find the father of William Sullens married to Nancy Lawson, seems as though there are so many Williams listed in the census can't find anything to narrow it down.

Re: Nancy (LAWSON) SULLENS

2006-09-16 20:36:40Z

Do you know anything about Burell Lawson the father of Nancy, this is where I can't seem to go any further back. he would have been James Sullens grandfather. thanks Charlotte

Re: Nancy (LAWSON) SULLENS

MichaelColeMD — 2006-09-16 19:58:52Z

This is Wm SULENS (age 50, laborer, born in MO) and Nancy E. SULENS (age 28, born in NC) found on the census of 1880 at Washington Twp., Laclede Co., MO, p. 68, #10. Children were born in Missouri: David (age 13) and Nathan (age 10).

On the census of 1900 Washington Twp., Laclede Co., MO, can be found 2 sons of Wm & Nancy: James R. SULLEN (born Aug 1883, MO) and Laney SULLEN (b. Aug 1895, MO), listed as sons, living with William M. LEAK.

Re: nancy lawson sullens

2006-09-13 13:57:04Z

Yes think John Lawson was my Dad's uncle. Aleen Elienstien is my aunt ,seems as though I have hit the wall concerning William Sullens. Do you have any information on Burl Lawson think he is suppose to be Nancy Lawson's father, looking for his place of birth.

Re: nancy lawson sullens

2006-09-13 08:44:29Z

James Sullens(Rosetta's brother) is my husband's grandpa.
Aleen Eilenstein, Rosetta's daughter has just given us pictures of Nancy, Rosetta and others. Would be interested in hearing from you concerning William Sullens and others. Are you related to John or Homer Lawson? Thanks.

Looking for Father...

2005-05-24 00:58:07Z

I am searching for my father, the name that I was given was a Michael Sullins from Liberty Hill, Texas. I was born in 1980 so I would guess him to be around mid 40-s now. I am not sure if he even knows that I exist but I would love to be able to find my missing side of the family and fill that part of my life with the information that has been absent from my life for twenty five years...
( The Surname could possibly be Sullens also)

Mahoney, regular ordained MG at the residence of John Hiatte (sic), Franklin Co., Mo.; the consolidated hand written index has Harriett E. Hiette

Their children are:

a. Mary b. 1864

b. Margaret “Maggie” b. 1866

c. James b. 1868

d. Samuel b. 1870

e. Mildreth (probably Mildred) b. 1878

Re: Mary Sullens, Mo

2004-12-04 04:24:30Z

Here is a marriage record on her:

Sullins, Mary

Pg. 73 Franklin County, MO marriage records

John D. Hensly and Mary Sullins both of Franklin Co., Mo.; married on 5 September 1833 by James McBride, MG at Franklin Co., Mo.; the hand written index and the consolidated hand written index have John D. Hensley. Her father might be Joseph Sullins and Rebecca Fogle, her mother as both were early settlers in the area. If they were her parents, Joseph was a vet of the War of 1812 and you might be able to gain some pension information on him from the National Archives.

Hi Mary,

My ggg grandfather was Hiram King. He was born in NY in 1815 but settled in Texas Co. MO. He had a confirmed sister named Rachael King, born 1809 in NY. Rachael married John Sullens.

John and Rachael can be found in St. Louis in the 1830 census with a small boy. By chance would you have information on their marriage?

The questions and the answers he gave to them .

Mary (SULLENS) HENSLEY (b. c.1815, MO) was the daughter of Zachariah & Orpha (GREENSTREET) SULLENS. Mary's father's name is documented in Franklin Co., MO, Deed Book D, p. 390, which recorded: John HENSLEY to David GALE ... 1 Nov 1841 John HENSLEY and Mary, his wife, formerly Mary SULLINS, daughter and heir of Zachariah SULLINS, deceased, of Osage County, to David GALE of Franklin County for $185.00, ...

HIATT or SHORT?

MichaelColeMD — 2004-12-05 22:18:05Z

I've been told that it was Harriet Elizabeth (or Ellen) SHORT who married Thomas H. B. SULLINS on 10 April 1862 in Franklin Co, MO. Is there proof of Harriet's maiden name? Who were her parents?

Thomas H. B. SULLINS was the son of John SULLENS (III) (b. 28 Jan 1795, VA or NC; d. after 1860). Thomas' mother died before the census of 27 Sep 1850, Dist. 31, Franklin Co., MO, p. 68B, #764. Thomas is also listed with his father on the census of 9 Aug 1860, Bueoff Twp., Franklin Co., MO, p. 10, #70.

I would be thrilled to hear from any of the descendants of Thomas and Harriet.
