At long last, here's my "book report" on what I found in Salt Lake
last month.

In the Joseph Smith Building library (not the main Family History
Center building) I found a hardbound book titled "The Biggers Family"
by Jeanette Kathleen Biggers Daniels, AG (and I believe she has a PhD
in something). There is no date, nor publisher. But according to
the stamp on the front of the book, the FHC microfilmed it May 24,
1993. And handwritten on the front page is a note from Jeannette
Daniels that says, "This book is donated through Know Your Heritage,
a non-profit historical organization. This book may be used by any-
one researching the Biggers family but may not be reproduced for
profit. This research was sponsored by Jeannette Kathleen Biggers
Daniels and Dr. Eugene Morrison" (to whom she dedicates the book).

The Table of Contents says:

Introduction
The Family in Scotland
The Family in Ireland
The Family in America
Sources
for the Scottish and Irish Sections
for the American Section
Index for the American Section
Index for the Irish Section
Index for the Scottish Section

The above covers 113 pages (which are numbered), then there are 114
more pages (not numbered) which list various sources in Ireland,
pedigree chart of the author's line, blank (?) Family Group Sheets,
a picture section, some life stories of various Biggers, and a copy
of a page of the 1820 Mecklenburg Co VA census and two copies about
a Joseph Bigger's Revolutionary War pay.


When we chatted, Jeanette said that while researching this family,
she discovered the surnames "Biggers" and "Fleming" were basically
interchangeable in the very early years (like during the 1100s-1600s
in Scotland). And she also said that the tartans for these two
surnames are IDENTICAL, to this date. Apparently the BIGGERS
originally came from Flanders, the county/area/province in Belgium.
They went on to Scotland where they were kind of known as the
Flemish Biggers, or Fleming Biggers.

She especially mentioned an Alexander FLEMING, off the top of her
head, and said that c1650 he went directly from Scotland to VA,
possibly to Westmoreland Co., she couldn't recall, AND THAT he was
called "Alexander SCOTT" in those early days in VA.

>From my understanding, the area where the Flemish people went to
in Scotland is today's town of "Biggars". I found it in the atlas--
teeny town located at 55.38N 3.32W, south of and between Glascow and
Edinburgh.

The first Bigger that is discussed is Baldwin (Baldwin Flamingus of
Biggar) b c1100. "He was a Flemish leader who obtained a grant of
lands of Biggar from David I (b c1080 d 1153). Baldwin was the
first landowner of Biggar that records can be found for. He was
the Sheriff of Lanarkshire, Scotland." She also notes that, "All
Scottish information comes from "Bigger and the House of Fleming,"
by William Hunter unless otherwise stated. This book can be found
in the Genealogical Society." I'm not sure which "Genealogical
Society" she's referring to though.

I'm not going to go through the lineage all those "ancient" people,
but some of the names are interesting, coming forward in time:
Hugh of Biggar, Robert of Biggar, Sir Malcolm Fleming of Biggar,
Robert Fleming, Robert Fleming of Biggar, William Flandrensis of
Biggar, Patrick Fleming, Fleming of Bigger, Elizabeth Fleming,
Alexander Fleming, David Fleming. Notice how the "Biggar/Bigger"
gets dropped and "Fleming" comes into being? I find this to be an
extremely important point we should keep in mind during our own
research.

Another source Jeanette cites is "The Complete Peerage," but I
could not find where she may have listed an author's name.

{I am going to give several lines of BIGGERS which are not ours,
just to provide some overall information on the surname. Plus
I've found it often helps in research to be able to eliminate
"them" from "us," when trying to sort out our own particular line
from a bunch of people who all have the same last name but not
all are blood kin.}

The next section of the book is "The Family in Ireland." It seems
there were three or four brothers: Michael, John, James, and
probably William BIGGER. The first three were all b 1610s-1620 in
Scotland. Next listed are many other BIGGERs of this same genera-
tion who cannot be connected to the brothers. All these people
are b, m + d in Ireland, many in County Antrim. Some of them came
to America in the 1800s.

Next section is "The Family in America": the first family men-
tioned is that of Matthew BIGGER b c1700-1710s, m Martha, d Ireland.
The widow, Martha BIGGER, went to the US in 1773, where she d and
is buried at Candor, PA. Six ch are listed for Matthew and Martha,
all being b c1720s-1730s Ireland and all coming to America: 1-Samuel
m#1 Abigail WILSON m#2 Nancy DENNISON; 2-John; 3-Elizabeth, 4-James,
5-Jane, 6-Thomas. No info is given on where they settled.

The next family discussed consists of three brothers, Joseph,
William, and John BIGGER.

1. "Joseph BIGGER b 1722 Antrim Co Ireland. Some
researchers have believed that this Joseph Bigger
lived in Prince Edward Co, VA for a while before
coming to the North and South Carolina border.
There are no records to show that this is the path
that he took. I believe that this tradition started
because there was a Biggers family living in Prince
Edward Co, VA at the time that Joseph came to America.
That family has been traced to another Biggers family
that came to America in the 1600s. If there is a
relationship, it would be very remote and back in
Scotland many generations ago. Joseph m Sarah --.
Some have suggested that her last name was HARRIS
and others claim BARBER. ([author's] NOTE: I have
never seen any proof for either of these last names.)
She appears to have been about 20 years younger than
Joseph was. He d 1786 in York Co, SC. Sarah d 1811
in Williamson Co, TN."

Twelve pages of Joseph's descendants come next, which is Jeanette's
line.


2. "William BIGGER came to America from Ireland in the
1750s. He landed in Pennsylvania according to family
tradition but left immediately for Prince Edward Co, VA.
He did not stay there long either but went to NC. He
arrived there about 1762-64. He moved with other close
relatives. He was born c1713 in Ulster, County Antrim,
Ireland and died in 1780. He m Sarah JULIAN who was
b 1717 or 1720 in Ulster."

Five pages of William's descendants follow.


3. "John BIGGER b 1720. He m Mary PORTER. He d 1766. She
d after 1775. She was on a land record with her son,
Matthew, in Mecklenburg Co., NC in 1775."

About six pages of John's descendants are listed.

One thing to remember when working with "The Douglas

lived in Goochland Co, or that the event occurred in
Goochland. Reverend Douglas wrote down many life
events if people asked him to do it. They wanted a
record made of the event, regardless of where it took

Thanks for contacting me. Susannah Bigger is the sister to my Betsy Coleman Bigger who married Simon P. Hughes in 1803. They also have another sister and daugter of James Bigger, her name is Polly Bigger. Polly Bigger married a John Carter in April 1806 in PEC. I would love to share information with you, if you like. I have extensive information on the Hughes, Bigger family. I am also in contact with Hughes relatives that are still in PEC. We have some letters that have been with our family for over a hundred years. Below, I have included one of them for you. This particular letter comes from my 3rd great grandfathers sister in-law Mary Elizabeth Hughes. She married George Robert Hughes, brother to James B. Hughes(my 3rd great grandfather). Her letter mentions relatives with the surname Rice. I have made the connection to William Rice, but not the other two.

July 5th, 1869

Dear Brother,

As I have an opportunity this evening I will write you a few lines to let you hear from us. I will write a letter of general news. We are all well here at this time. Pattie Hughes has been confined to her bed for 12 months with inflammation of the bladder and is still very bad off. Sister Laura is entirely blind in one eye and can't see but little out of the other. Her daughter Emma has been twice married. Her first husband William Rice died at Point Lookout. Her second husband John Womack the grandson of old Wilkerson Watson. She has a son and daughter. Sister's son Augustus was killed in the army. Old Mr. Joseph Watson and his wife has died in the last six months. Also Mr. Joseph Price and Mr. Sam Thackston. Uncle Jesse Hughes is dead, also Aunt Polly Carter. Well Brother I will tell you of some of my troubles. I lost my dear son Lucius in the army. He died at Staunton River Bridge. And six months before I lost my little daughter Harriette Virginia - Oh Brother I can't express to you what trouble I have seen. I have now nine living children two married. John Robert married Henningham Hughes's daughter. My daughter Ellen married a man from Albemarle. His name is Garland. He is a very nice-industrious-poor man. She has three children. Well I will reckon you will want to know how we are getting along. Very badly I do assure you. We lost our horse two years ago and have not been able to get another and can make no crop therefore have all of our meat and bread to bye and nothing to bye with except what little shoe making Mr. Hughes can do. I have nothing to clothe my children with to send them to school. I have not been able to get anything for myself or children this spring I have not been to preaching but once since the war. Owing to not having no clothes.

Mr. Hughes is very delicate but can't do but little for us but is very sturdy and does the best he can. Jennie my baby when you was here I believe is now grown. So you see it has been a long time since we saw each other. Do you ever intend coming to see us anymore? We are very anxious to see you. If you can't come send one of your sons. I heard one of them passed through Farmville during the war and made inquiries of Cousin Frank Rice's son about us. I would have been very glad to have seen him. Well brother it is now night and my eyes are so bad that I will have to close with all of our best love to you your wife and children. Write to me as soon as you get this.
Farewell Brother
I wish ever to be remembered
Your Sister

Polly Married Mastin Powell. She is thought to be the eldest child, as she 'ran away' soon after her mother married David Powell. -mfe

Mary married Mastin J. dna [LHLM-MX6] Powell Bef 1800, Likely Caswell Co., NC. Mastin (son of David dna [GX4W-QQW] Powell and Mary [LCDH-LPW] Eppes/Epps) was born Abt 1783, Caswell County, North Carolina; died 1846, Halifax County, Virginia. [Group Sheet]

Notes:

Mary Bigger (daughter of James Bigger). She married John Carter on Apr 15, 1806 in Prince Edward County, Virginia. In 1841, a Chancery Cause is shown on the LVA Chancery Records Index by Samuel W. Carter, Etc Plaintiff and John T. Carter, Gardian of minor children of John Carter, who had died intestate, leaving 6 children, 2 of whom are minors, and wife, Mary Carter. It is shown that her father, James Bigger of Prince Edward has given her 200 acres....

John married Mary "Polly" Bigger 12 Jan 1803, Prince Edward County, Virginia.. Mary (daughter of James Bigger and Elizabeth Coleman) was born Est 1772, Prince Edward County, Virginia; died 1864, Prince Edward Co., Virginia. [Group Sheet]

What is it that you want to add?
My reasoning is that James Vaughan is involved with the individuals included in the Lines of Richard Carter and Susannah Bigger; he is guardian and gives consent for the marriage of Nancy LeGrand to William Turner in Halifax Co. His ward Elizabeth 'Betsy' Turner, d/o Nancy LeGrand and William Turner, married one of my grandfathers, William George 'Buck' Carter. The LeGrands removed to Tennessee; but Betsy is found in Halifax with James Vaughan acting for her father. This James Vaughan also acted as Bondsman for William Carter who married Mary Hobson. Wm., a son of Susannah Bigger and Richard Carter. Richard had died in 1797 and James Vaughan acted in his stead. William Carter would be the uncle of Buck Carter. http://reynoldspatova.org/getperson.php?personID=I12907&tree=reynolds1


http://reynoldspatova.org/getperson.php?personID=I15070&tree=reynolds1

Further, Wm. Carter's birth is about 1778, Halifax Co., VA. He marries Polly in 1801 probably right after his 21st birthday, which is exactly what we would expect. If the Wm. who married Mary Hobson was the s/o Theodorick as other researchers propose, he would have been born in the 1740's, or at the latest 1750. By 1801 he would have been 50 or more. I just can't see that being the case. Another William candidate is the s/o Theodorick4 and his first wife, Ms. Townes. He is in Prince Edward, later in Halifax with an estimated birth of 1765. I do not think there is a Will for this William, but I will double check when I am in Halifax next month.

They were located on the Pittsylvania Co., side of Halifax; Jesse, his brother married Susannah Adkins, who is also from Pittsylvania Co., VA

So, as you see, there is no direct evidence that has turned up as of now. This is just my theory of one other member of my Carter line. Note: I can be wrong, but this is my best guess. The LVA is in the processing and scanning the Halifax Chancery Records and they are not yet available. They may tell us more, if I live long enough for them [LVA] to finish.
Mary Frances

William married Mary 'Polly' Hobson 23 Mar 1801, Halifax County, Virginia. Mary (daughter of William Hobson and Elizabeth Warren) was born 24 Apr 1783, Halifax Co., Virginia; died 7 May 1850, Pittsylvania County, Virginia. [Group Sheet]

E-Mail From Mike Terry

to Holly, Richard, me

You need to look at this Eggisland website and not Dick Zieman?s Daniels tree for actual documents on the Giles Carter line. Steve Eggleston is Mary Frances Eggleston's husband who maintains the server. Please note the documents attached to Richard Carter, Lemuel Carter Sr and Lemuel Carter Jr

I think the birth date for Lemuel Carter Sr who dies in Caswell County, is probably more like 1780 ? 82. If we believe the 1850 Census of Halifax County, Virginia, where I think the ages are inaccurate, then he would not have been a minor if born in 1774.... when his father died ca 1796. And his wife shows as born 1790 which would make her 11 years old if Lemuel Cartrer Sr and Martha ?Patsy? Carter actually married in 1801 in Halifax, County. In the 1860 Census in Caswell County, North Carolina, Lemuel Carter shows as L. Carter and it states a birth age similar to that in the 1850 Census in Halifax County. The probate records in Caswell County show this is the same Lemuel Carter Sr. The probate records images for Caswell County on this site show show Lemuel Carter Sr. had a son named John and Lemuel Carter. Lemuel Jr. had a son John Flint who also had a son John Flint Carter. These Lemuel Carter attachments in the tree are not transcriptions and are actual images which is really fantastic.

Carter Glass Powell (1800-1857)

His birth date also is seen as 16 May 1800. Source: The
Heritage of Caswell County, North Carolina, Jeannine
D. Whitlow, Editor (1985) at 438-439 (Article #573 "The
Carter Powell Family" by Mrs Helen Powell Neal).

The owners of the homes in which Thomas Day's architectural
woodwork is found constituted some of the wealthiest and
most powerful individuals in the Dan River region:
physician John Tab Garland, M.D., at one time the richest
man in Caswell County (1850s and 1860s); banker and civic
leader Thomas Donoho Johnston; machine shop, foundry, and
sawmill owner Caleb Richmond; state senator James Kerr;
merchant and tobacco factory owner John Wilson; planters
William Long (also the owner of a sawmill and gristmill),
Sidney Lea, George Williamson, Haywood Williams, Thomas
Mumford McGehee, and William H. Holderness.

Family relationships among the planters enhanced the demand
for Thomas-Day-made architectural trimwork. Thomas Donoho
Johnston built Clarendon Hall in 1842 and tapped Day to
embellish the interior; when his sister and brother-in-law,
Sarah and William Long, built the Long House in 1856, they,
too, turned to Day. Day provided the architectural woodwork
for the house of Captain Carter Powell around 1848 and that
of his son Henry Alexander Powell less than a decade later.
Thomas L. Lea and his siblings Sidney S. Lea and Rebecca
Lea (Mrs. George Williamson), his niece Elizabeth Lea (Mrs.
Calvin Graves), and his daughter Ann Lea (Mrs. William
Griffin Graves) provided Day the opportunity to do the
woodwork on a law office and four of their five houses
between 1840 and 1850.

The woodwork suggests the Carter Powell house was built
around 1848 rather than the more often cited 1850. Day's
machine-cut newels with tendrils date Henry Powell's house
to 1853-1855. Day's work for Elizabeth Lea and Calvin
Graves was not on their house, as it was built several
years earlier, but on Calvin's law office, for which Day
supplied the mantel. For a discussion of this family, see
Whitlow, "Thomas L. Lea," in Heritage of Caswell County,
354.

Richard Carter (-1795) married Susanna Bigger in Prince Edward County 29 December (bond) 1772. Susanna, as administratrix, delivered the inventory of Richard's estate of taken 18 February 1796. Susanna married second David Powell 17 November 1796, and Powell became guardian to her three younger children, Richard, Samuel, and Nancy, by September 1797. A chancery suit of November 1796 identified Richard's heirs as John Carter, who was then of age, and minors, Thomas, Lemuel, William, Mary, Richard, Samuel, and Nancy.

Robert A. Jones was a resident of Halifax County, N.C. The collection includes personal accounts of Jones of Halifax County, N.C.; accounts for his ward; and accounts he kept as treasurer for the county poor wardens, 1820-1822. Robert A. Jones (fl. 1817-1829) was a cotton planter and large landholder in Halifax County, N.C., where he served as treasurer of the Wardens of the Poor and treasurer of the Roanoke Navigation Company. Jones owned property and slaves elsewhere in North Carolina as well, including Bertie and Wake counties. Plantations he either owned or helped manage included the Grove, Occaneeche, New Hope, and Indian Woods. He appears also to have operated a paper mill outside Raleigh, N.C., and a blacksmith shop in Halifax.
Between 1817 and 1826, Jones served as guardian for Willie W. Jones, who was possibly his nephew. Willie was the son of Mrs. Mary Montfort Jones, for whom Robert Jones acted as estate administrator after her death in 1825. In 1823, Jones was also appointed estate administrator for James Johnston (d. 1821), former postmaster of Halifax County, who died intestate. Two enclosures are one receipt from Richard Carter, dated 27 January 1826, for timber sawed and one undated page of miscellaneous calculations.[Must be Jr.]

Richard Carter is found on the 1870 Census Halifax VA in the hh 167/168 of his brother William George 'Buck' Carter along with William's wife 'Betsy' 58 and living with them is George T. and alongside is Edward and wife Harriett in their first year of marriage. This is then, Richard Carter, s/o Lemuel and Patsy Powell Carter.
