ABRAHAM MADDOX/MADDIX

B.C. 1797

 

With Speculated father, Nathaniel

 

Nathaniel’s family had connections with Adams Co., OH, where probable son Abraham (b. 1797) married.  Most, if not all, of the Maddoxes in Adams Co. had connections with Nathan Maddox of Bedford Co., VA.  Was my Nathaniel named after him?  A DNA test will give solid evidence that this is probably the case.

 

Nathaniel Maddox was with Dennis Maddox in the 1810 census of Greenup (later Carter) Co., KY, same age category.  Dennis Maddox had been in Livingston Co., KY, in 1800.  In 1840 Livingston Co., KY, was Revolutionary War veteran, Nathaniel Maddox.  Was this the father of my probable ancestor Nathaniel b.c. 1775?

=================

 

1Paternity Documentation Nathaniel to Abraham:  Circumstantial.  Living by each other in 1830 census Greenup/Carter Co., KY, right age to be father and son

2Paternity Documentation Abraham to William:  Strong circumstantial.  In 1860 census of Carter Co., KY, Abraham in HH 1154, son Cyrus in HH 1155, son William in HH 1156, son John in HH 1157.  William named a son Abraham.  I believe the courthouse has estate settlement documentation stating William was a son.

3Paternity Documentation William to John:  1860 census Carter Co., KY

4Paternity Documentation John to Charles:  1880 census Carter Co., KY

5Paternity Documentation Charles to Frank:  1900 census Greenup Co., KY
