Notes for Milledge G. Clayton: [SusannaPryor.FTW] Subj: Clayton surname Date: 97-06-11 05:13:47 EDT From: jimmeeks@postoffice.worldnet.att.net (jim meeks) To: candyotte@aol.com Hi Candy It is nice to finally meet a Clayton "kin" other than my immediate ones! I am descended from Daniel W. Clayton through his son, Milledge G. Clayton, who married Sarah Ann Green. Their son, Daniel Wilson Clayton, married Laura Jane Lindsey and their daughter, Annie Gertrude Clayton, married Laudius D. Meeks. Milledge Clayton fought in the CW and moved to Suwannee County, FL where he died January 15, 1903. I have extensive information on this family. I received some information from a relative that I don't have handy but it was certified by a Notary Public (for what good that does!) and it said the Isham was the father of Daniel W.(ilson) Clayton. BTW, Milledge Clayton was born March 12, 1836 in Barnwell District, SC. He was a twin to Miler H. Clayton. Miller remained in Georgia but Milledge and his brother Mandoss V. Clayton, moved to Suwannee County, FL. My great aunt, the daughter of Annie Gertrude Clayton and Laudius Meeks, distinctly remembers "Uncle Doss" and "Uncle Miller" She never knew Milledge as he died in 1903 and Annie and Laudius did not marry until 1899 in Suwannee County. I had hoped that a will or something significant would surface to tie Daniel W. Clayton to Isham of SC but I have not found it yet. Just family stuff and maybe a Bible or two but nothing of an official document that I have put my hands on. I don't trust Huxford all the time either even though I am a member and know Boe Williams very well. BTW, I live in Daytona Beach and am 45 years old. If it is any consolation to you, Milledge and Sarah Ann Clayton had Daniel Wilson, ISHAM, Napoleon H.(uncle NEP) m. Catherine C., Lenora m. William E. Harrell, Julia m. Danil N. Howard, Oceona, Lillian m. Charles Allen Griffin ( aunt Lillian), THOMAS BROOKS Clayton m. Susan M. Howard, Milledge "Alvin" m. Mary Warner (uncle Alvin or uncle Al) I will go and get those other papers and let you know what it is all about but this should get us started. Again, nice to meet you and hope we can help each other solve some of our mysteries!!! JIM MEEKS jimmeeks@worldnet.att.net.

File contributed for use in USGenWeb Archives by: Rose Canon canonrose@insightbb.com and Mary Wilson marybw@vol.com August 11, 2003, 2:04 pm Valdosta Times Feb. 23, 1889 Having finished her work she now rests. Mrs. Sarah Prescott, nee Brooks, consort of Jesse T. Prescott, Sr., was born in Barnwell District, S.C., on the 16th day of August, 1818. Her father died leaving Sarah an infant six months old. Her mother afterwards married Isham Clayton, who moved to Lowndes County, GA., while Sarah was quite young, settling near Ocean pond where Sarah was raised and grew up to womanhood, and on the 30th day of August, 1840, she was married to Jesse T. Prescott. Although she had lived to see her three score and ten years, she was taken with that most dreaded of diseases, consumption, which terminated in death on the morning of the 16th inst., aged 70 years and 6 months. She was noted for her independence and unvarnished style and will power. Of a truth it can be said of her that in her there was no guile. No Phariseeism or hypocrisy could be found in her large and generous heart. Although she never attached herself to any Church, she can truthfully on arriving at the gates of the Celestial City sing: "In my hands no prize I bring; - Simply to Thy cross I cling." Aunt Sarah, as she was called by all who knew her, was beloved by all for her straight forward way of doing business. While she was not one of those loud professors of religion, she preferred the position of the poor Publican, her trust was alone in Jesus, who is an all sufficient Saviour. She believed in qui transtutit sustinet. Just before she expired she said to those around her that God had pardoned her sins. This sad dispensation of Providence has taken from our midst one of the most affectionate mothers on earth, and a better neighbor never lived is said by all who have lived in reach of her. But alas! she is no more here, her pure gentle spirit has been called by the Master to its rest beyond the beautiful river, where her sanctified spirit can join the Heavenly Choir in singing "Crown Him Lord of All." Her mortal remains were interred in the cemetery at this place on the 17th inst., in the presence of nearly three hundred persons, all friends, and many relatives, all deeply sympathizing with the bereft family, consisting of husband, four sons and one daughter. May Heaven's blessings ever rest upon her loved ones. The Rev. Mr. Brown, of the M.E. Church, conducted the religious services. J.E.S. Statenville, Ga., Feb. 18, 1889. Additional Comments: The writer of the obituary, J.E.S., was James E. Sharpe, a family friend. The two families were connected by marriage when Sharpe's son married the Prescotts'granddaughter. Jesse Prescott's middle initial was P, not T. Their children were Thomas Moses, Elijah J.W., Hiram D.,Echols, and Amanda M. "Aunt Daught" Prescott.

Prescott, Sr.) STATE OF GEORGIA, LOWNDES COUNTY: I, Jesse P. Prescott Sr., being of sound and deposing mind and memory, and being desirous to settle my worldly affairs while I have strength so to do, do make and publish this, my last will and testament, hereby revoking all wills heretofore at any time made by me. First. Committing my soul to God who gave it, and in whom I put my trust, I desire that my body shall be buried in my old family lot at Statenville Cemetery in Echols County Georgia. Second, I desire that just debts shall be first paid out of any money I may leave; should I leave no ready cash, I direct my Executor hereinafter named to pay my debts, if any, out of such of my estate as he may deem best, taking in consideration the interest of my family. Third, I give, bequeath, and devise unto my worthy and beloved wife, Elizabeth D. Prescott, my home place in the town of Lake Park, Lowndes County Georgia, situated on lots 4 and 2, in block 5, fronting Marion Avenue 110 feet, and running back -- feet to a plank fence dividing my lands from the Misses Carter lands, with all the stock, tools, impliments, machinery and provisions of all sorts, also all household and kitchen furniture, and bedding, including the parlor organ, and all other things that may be in and about my said home and premises, for and during the term of her natural life. Fourth. I give and bequeath unto my granddaughter, Mrs. Jimmie Clayton, that part of lot of land number eighty-seven (87), in the 16th district of Echols County, Georgia, lying north of the Sol Branch (a branch running east and west through said lot of land) containing one hundred and twenty-give acres, more or less, except a small portion situated in the northeast corner of said lot heretofore sold to James T. Corbett by me. I give this piece of land to my granddaughter, Jimmie Clayton, because her home is the home of her mother, the widow of my deceased son, as well as for her kindness to my daughter, A.M. Prescott, and is often the home or resting place of her brothers. Fifth. I give and bequeath to my daughter, Miss A.M. Prescott, my office and fixtures therein, as well as the lot whereon it stands, being the East third of lot 12, in block 15, in the town of Lake Park, fronting 33 1/2 feet on Railroad Avenue, and running back North 30 feet. This I desire her to keep for rent for her especial benefit. Sixth.

______________ 4/24/04 Candy, I'm just home to Kentucky after a week of genealogy research in SC--drove 9 hrs from Charleston to Lexington today--and am too brain-dead to be much use tonight. I do have Jesse and Sarah Prescott on the 1870 census in Echols with 2 children, Malissa (Amanda Malissa) and Echols. This is district 16 and I wrote p. 24 in the margin which I thinks means image 24 in Ancestry images. If you asked me this question before, I must have misunderstood. Jesse owned a large area of land that was partly in SE Lowndes and partly in SW Echols. The family mainly lived in Statenville but the younger Dr. Jesse lived and had his medical practice in Lake Park. All of it was Lowndes at one time. The Isham Claytons lived near Ocean Pond, which is in Lake Park now. Thanks for the info on Almenia. Rose

He was living in Pitt Co. NC., when his father William died in 1766. While living in Pitt Co. William practicing a twentieth century lifestyle. He had a wife and a common law spouse, both of whom were bearing him children. They were sisters, Mary and Anna Moye
When the 1766 deed was executed, tranferring land that he had inherited from his father, it was in his name and that of his wife, Mary. Yet by this time he had fathered two children by Anna, his wife's sister and his common law spouse.
William moved to Craven Co. about 1774 and settled near old Fort Barnwell. When he sold land that year Anna was still with him and witnessed the land transaction. She signed her name as Anna Moye
About ten years later 1784 something happened to the three individuals and William and Anna left Mary and parted ways. William sold out in December 1784 and went to Georgia with Anna and her children. Mary is found in Duplin Co. two years later enumberated with four of her children. Mary died before 1790
William settled on the East side of the Ogeechee River in Effingham Co. and was later granted 500 acres of land. A family problem arose on the East side and caused the Denmarks to settled on the West side of the Ogeechee in Bulloch Co. The Georgia Gazette states that a man named Denmark may have shot and killed a young man named Levi Dykes.
By this time it appears that Mary was deceased and William decided to formalize a ecclesiastical or civil cermony for in January 1795, he made deed of gift to his "beloved wife" Anna and her children.

He matriculated at Wadham College,Oxford, 28 April 1618, receiving the degree of B. A. 6 July 1620, andthat of M.A. 20 April 1624 (Foster, Alumni Oxonienses). A man uscriptcopy of the VISITATIONS OFHAMPSHIRE (1634) in the British Museum hasunder his name the note "this Robert is a minister." He thus records hisfirst marriage: "Mary Baker, born at Battell in Sussex , Robert Brookeand Mary Baker intermarried 1627, the 25th of February, being St.Matthias' Day and Shrove Monday." This lady was the daughter of ThomasBaker of Battle, Esq., Barrister-at-law, and Mary his wife, daughter ofSir Thomas Engham of Goodneston, Kent. A pedigree of the Baker family,as entered at the Visitation of 1634, is published in Berry's SUSSEXGENEALOGIES. Mary Baker died in 1634, probably at the birth of herdaughter Barbara, and her husband, Robert Brooke, re-married thefollowing year. "May the 11th, 1635, Robert Brooke (aforementioned) wasmarried to mary, second daughter of Roger Mainwaring, Doctor of Divinity& Dean of Worcester, wh: Mary was born at St. Giles-in-the-Fields,London." "Roger Mainwaring, the father of Robert Brooke's second wife,subsequently became Bishop of St. David's, and came into collision withParliment through his over zealous advocacy of the royal prerogative .Robert Brooke arrived in Maryland 30 June, 1650, with is (second ) wifeMary, his ten children, Baker, Thomas, Charles, Roger, Robert , John,William, Frances, Mary, and Anna Brooke, and twenty-eight servants, alltransported at his own cost and charge (Md. Land Office, L ib. 1, fol.165-166; Davis' DAY STAR, p.74). With his two sons Baker and Thomas, hetook the oath of fidelity to the Proprietary, 22 Jul y 1650 (Md.Archives, iii, 256). A commission had been issued to him , dated atLondon, 20 September, 1649, as commander of a county to be newleyerected, and he had also a separate commission of the same date as memberof the Council of Maryland. He took the oath of office in the lattercapacity 22 July 1650 (Md. Archives, iii, 237, 240, 2 56). A new county,called Charles County, was duly erected and Robert Brooke was constitutedits commander, 30 October 1650 (Md. Archives , iii, 259). "When Maryland was reduced, in 1652, by the ParlimentaryCommissioners, he was placed at the head of the provisional councilinstituted by them, and served in this capacity from 29 March until 3July 1654, when an order was passed revoking his commissions andnullifying the act erecting the county, in place of which a new countywas erected called Calvert County (Md. Archives, iii, 308). According tothe Brooke family record: "He was the first that did seat the Patuxent,about twenty miles up the river at De la Brooke, and had one son there ,born in 1651, called Basil, who died the same day. In 1652 he removed toBrooke Place, being right against De la Brooke; and on the 28th ofNovember, 1655, between 3 & 4 o'clock in the afternoon had two children,Eliza and Henry, twins. "He departed this world the 20th day of July 1655, and lieth buried atBrooke Place Manor; and his wife, Mary Brooke, departed this life the29th November 1663." The careful family record kept by Robert Brooke names a number ofrelatives who served as God-parents to his children, and furnishesabundant evidence as to his connection with the English parent stoc k.This interesting family record is published in Tyler's MEMOIR OF ROGERBROOKE TANEY (pp. 22-25), where by an accidental omission the death ofRobert Brooke is placed in 1663. The date is correctly given inmanuscript copies preserved by the family."
