These are shared messages by Prodigy members on the surname KIRBY. Submitted by: Wayne P. Warlick wwarlick@sprintmail.com1992/93 Prodigy Exchanges From: GLENDA FERRARI (TNDH52B) Subject: Kirby Family Sent on: 08/11 at 12:45 PM Wayne, I agree that there are too many Henrys etc. I do
believe that there is at least two Henry Jrs. and Henry Srs. I
found a Jr. and Sr. after my Sr. had died. I also believe that
the ones in Halifax Co. are different than the ones in Albemarle
Co. I think that the way you have it figured out is correct. Or
at least on the right tract. Mr. W. sent me the article about
"Owen-Keary-Turley" which I don't think is the right family,
Fluvanna Co., Va. Marriages, Kirby Deeds in Albemarle and Nearby
Counties, Virginia, Albemarle Co., Va. Marriages, Information on
Plats of Surveys of Land in Albemarle and Fluvanna Counties,
Fluvanna County, Virginia Circuit Court. He really did sind a
lot ot information. I guess it had been so long since I
reviewed it that I had forgotten everything that he did send.
Do you have anything else. Would love to receive anything.

(TNDH52B) SUBJECT: KIRBY Lois, I noticed in a letter to
Beverly Blair that you said that you had two Henry Kirbys in
your family. I too have a Henry Kirby Sr. and a Henry Kirby
Jr. My Henry Kirby Sr. was from Albemarle Co., Virginia. He
was the father of my Henry Kirby Jr. who was born around 1788
in Virginia. Henry Jr. married Mary Hudson on 21 Dec. 1811 in
Rutherford Co., Tenn. He died around 1880 in Rutherford Co,
Tenn. >>>> Henry Kirby and Mary Hudson were the parents of
Sarah Ann Kirby who married James Madison Anderson on 11 Oct
1832 in Rutherford Co.
Are these the same Henry Kirbys that you have in your
line?

that's it. But since the name "Kirby" did appear in several of
my records, thought it might be useful to you. The second
reference is further proof that some of the family stayed
in the area. Happy Hunting!!

The only tax record that I have for Henry Kirby Sr. is the 1800 Albemarle Co., VA Tax List. I would love for you to send me a copy of the Albemarle County Personal Property Tax 1787.

I've have to check this. My records are in a data base in the computer for marriages, census, etc. My grandfather's brother's daughter married a Stevens in Haywood County, but she was a Kirby and much later. I think that she is still alive up there. I've been trying to get up early enough to drive the 40/50 miles up there to visit with them. Not easy when you go to bed at 3 and 4. I've only been picking up Andersons as I run into them without making a big search for them. My gggGF was a Henry Anderson Vaughan, so I'm going to have to do it sooner or later. They are everywhere in VA and NC. Even the immigrant lists are extensive. In Halifax Co., VA, those Quaker Andersons and Kearbys kept getting "disowned" for marrying "out of unity" ..first cousins. There are at least three Anderson Kerby/Kirbys that I've run into. I'll see what I can find. Ken Kerby Bartlett, TN POSTED: 06/04 6:37 PM TO: J KENNETH KERBY FROM: MARILYN PARTEE (FHJV06B) SUBJECT: ANDERSON/TENNES/1800 Ken, Yes there do seem to be quite a number of ANDERSONS in that area! Don't worry about that Haywood Co - Stevens marriage. There is probably no connection. Please keep in touch. Thanks again. Marilyn Partee in DE POSTED: 06/05 3:01 PM TO: ALL ROM: LERNEDA GAUDINO (FMBC39A) SUBJECT: KERBY GENEALOGY Would like to share information on the Kerby family. I descend from Asa Kerby, Solomon Kerby, David Kerby and Johathan Kerby. They lived in Virginia, Kentucky, and Missouri. My great-grandmother was Nancy Jane Kerby, b. Dec 7, 1832, daughter of Asa Kerby and Elvira Blue. Married Thomas C. Sumpter 24 July 1851 in Putnam Co. Missouri. Would love to hear from others interested in the Kerby Genealogy. Lerneda Gaudino POSTED: 06/07 12:09 AM TO: WAYNE WARLICK FROM: LERNEDA GAUDINO (FMBC39A) SUBJECT: KERBY GENEALOGY Thanks for your reply. I am checking my records for your family but have not come up with anything yet. Will let you know. My Johathan Kerby was born in 1710 in Lunenburg Co, VA, d. in Pittsylvania Co. VA. Also lived in Franklin Co., VA. His descendent moved from VA to Ky after the Revolution. Settled in Warren Co., Ky in 1793. Solomon Kerby died there. His wife and children moved to Monroe Co. MO in 1818 with his brother, Asa Kerby. They moved to Putnam Co, Mo in 1840. Thanks for your help. Lerneda in CA POSTED: 06/09 11:26 AM TO: WAYNE WARLICK FROM: J KENNETH KERBY (PRDV01A) SUBJECT: KERBY GENEALOGY Hey! I got here. Found another Anderson Kirby! I have established connection with a lady here who wrote a small book about her Kirby line. Spent three hours with her on the telephone one night last week, and visited her for another two hours and departed with the loan of her scratch notes for several states and a HUGE book on the Goolsby families written by a lady in GA. I am still trying to digest it. Elizabeth Kearby, daughter of Richard, married James Goolsby in Goochland Co., VA (probably). They really didn't more around...the counties kept changing until they left Albemarle/Amherst area and moved to Pittsylvania/Halifax and points south. In addition, I have just received photocopies of several pages of scratch notes from a researcher in CA who has just returned from Richmond. No wonder I haven't seen all these postings!! Lets all get together and solve all these mysteries. Ken Kerby Bartlett, TN TO: PRDV01A SUBJECT: KERBY GENEALOGY DATE: 06/13/1991 Howdy---sorry it took me 3 days to pick up on your post. Just what we need, another Anderson Kerby---notice that Pat Oder also has one, fortunately b. 1856. All for solving the Kerby puzzle. Spent yesterday pm trying to analyze... Va marriage, will records, etc. trying to id my Anderson Kirby parents. Still a puzzle, but several Kirby-Anderson marriages in the 1780-1800 time frame. My grandfather is James ANDERSON Johnson. The Johnsons went to Missouri via Indiana from Virginia. His father was George Washington Johnson born 7/13/1837 in Indiana. No id on his parents who were Virginians. If there is one name more ........ prevalent in Va records than Anderson, it must be Johnson. So .... the solutions to these puzzles may be a long time coming, but worth the time and effort. Certainly enjoy your postings. wpw in fla 06/13 09:21 POSTED: 06/14 3:45 PM TO: WAYNE WARLICK fROM: J KENNETH KERBY (PRDV01A) SUBJECT: KERBY Somehow or other your reply did not get to me. I responded to three different Kerby postings and none got back. I was scanning board to see what happned and found your reply. Yes, if you check the immigrant listings and early census records, there are a bunch of listings for Anderson. I've got some Johnson back there also but haven't tried to get into them yet. I have a Mary Pillow who married Hartwell Miles. Mary's parents married into the Payne and Johnson connections. Lady at the Halifax Historical Society who responded to my query was a Payne. Can you post a line going back with approximate dates and localities so I can try to fit you in there? My Anderson is also untraced, as I have a Henry Anderson Vaughan. There is a lady in Memphis who is descended from one Anderson Kerby/Kirby who was the son of Joseph Kerby. I am still trying to find out which Joseph. This is out of the lines which go back to Richard Kearby. Ken Kerby POSTED: 07/31 10:09 PM TO: LISA KERBY (NHKR51A) FROM: LERNEDA GAUDINO (FMBC39A) SUBJECT: KERBY/KIRBY I also descend from the family of KERBY. My great grand mother was Nancy Jane Kerby, b. 7 Dec 1832 in Missouri, the daughter of Asa R. Kerby and Elvira Blue. Asa was b. abt 1798 in Kentucky. Other ancestors were Solomon Kerby, David Kerby and John Kerby (Kearby) from Virginia. I see no connection between our families but would be happy to exchange information with you and anyone else interested in the Kerby family. My Nancy Jane Kerby married Thomas C. Sumpter. Lerneda in CA TIME: 11/07 6:36 PM TO: LISA KERBY (NHKR51A) FROM: PHYLLIS BRIGGMAN (JTGB47D) SUBJECT: KERBY/KIRBY Kirby is an old name in US. Richard Kirby,SR came to Lynn, MA before 1635 since he married "Jane" that year. His son Richard was born in Dartmouth, MA. Married Patience Gifford 1665 and I descend from their dau Experience. So your ancestry may go back further than you thought.

At any rate, I will take the information you gave me to my father and see if he can add anything that I left out. thanks again, and stay posted!! Lisa TIME: 11/17 1:22 AM TO: RUTHE BERNER (WRXC76A) FROM: J KENNETH KERBY (PRDV01A) SUBJECT: KERBY/KIRBY Ruthe, I hate to ask blind all-encompassing requests without anything to try to tie together, BUT......with the genealogy of Richard Kirby of Sandwich, can you please see if it includes any of his descendants who came south from Plymouth Colony? The early records indicate that this person was persecuted in Plymouth for being a Quaker. I have discovered Kirby Quakers in both New Jersey and Pennsylvania In particular, I am trying to determine in Richard Kearby, records also in Kerby and Kirby for this family, turned up in Virginia about 1700. Most researchers seem to accept the fact that he was the immigrant, but with his Quaker connection in Virginia and the other Quaker Kirbys in NJ, PA, and MA, it seems open for consideration that they may be the same family. So far as we have been able to determine, he had children, Jonathan (John), Henry, Francis and Elizabeth, and possibly more. Names picked up as first names and obviously from intermarriage are Pleasant and Hawkins. Ib view of the dates involved, this should have happened about the third or fourth generation from the Plymouth immigrants. Any information which you might have on the descendants of those persons moving south from New England would be appreciated. It would seem logical that persecuted Quakers in Plymouth would go to West Jersey and Pennsylvania which were settled by Quakers. These folks moved through Pennsylvania and dwon the Shenandoah Valley to the Winchester and other areas. Since the Richard Kearby of Virginia was located in what became Albemarle Co, in the mid 1700s which is just below Winchester, it seems possibly that this might have been the route of immigration. KEN TIME: 11/18 12:02 PM TO: RUTHE BERNER (WRXC76A) FROM: J KENNETH KERBY (PRDV01A) SUBJECT: KERBY/KIRBY Burlington is where I have been researching Zanes and we had discovered Recompense over there. Without having reference to the data in my genealogy program, there was a Jonathan Kirby and some others who signed as witnesses at a Zane Quaker wedding. Our Richard Kearby appeared in Henrico, Goochland, Albemarle, Ameherst and Halifax Counties, VA, in early 1700s. From a Quaker record in Halifax, it is determined that his wife, Elizabeth would have been born about 1698. It is surmised that he had an earlier wife because of the ages of his sons, John and Francis. There is evidence of sons Henry and William as well as a daughter, Elizabeth, who married into the Goolsby family. There are grandchildren named Joseph/Josiah, Samuel among others. I thihk that he must have either had a lot of other children or that he was not alone when he came to Henrico, etc., VA, because of the numbers of other Kearbys in the area, and because there are just TOO many Henrys to have come from one progenitor. There must have been intermarriages with the Hawkins and Plesant families because these were adopted for given names many times. I seem to remember having seen the Pleasant family in NJ from some previous source. I suppose that I'll have to get back into those NJ and PA Quaker records and see if I can come up with some more names. We have found NO records of the marriages of Richard Kearby and it is entirely possible that he married somewhere other than in VA, possibly in NJ or PA. Can you give me some dates for those family generations in Burlington? Perhaps it would be a guide as to the possibility of a connection. Oh yes, there are several Benjamins and two families with both Benjamin and Samuel children, both in VA and NC. One was fathered by a Joseph and the other by a Henry. This Henry died in 1789. Both of these families also had a Pleasant Kearby/Kerby. Thanks for your reply.

He moved to NJ in 1698. He m. Rebecca (conjectured that she was the daughter of Francis ALLEN and Mary BARLOW). Recompence's will was recorded at Trenton NJ (Book II. of Wills, p. 143), is dated 4 Jul 1712 and approved 21 Nov 1720. Is this your Recompence? Recompence's children were probably born in Dartmouth MA. In 1737 William (3) owned 150 acres in New Hanover Township Burlington County NJ. In 1724 Benjamin owned 290 acres in the same place. Richard (3) lived in New Hanover Township where in 1724 he owned 450 acres of land and where he died in 1740. His wife's name was Anne. His will, recorded at Trenton (Book of Wills, IV., p. 269), is dated 14 Oct 1733 and was proved 5 Mar 1740.

Kenneth........it's been a while, but I am still trying to determine parents of my Anderson Kirby b. 7 Feb 1806 in probably Albemarle Co., Va. Married to Mary Ann Moyer in Albemarle Co. 7 Nov. 1825. On recent visit to Albemarle courthouse, actually was able to pull and copy original of marriage license. The witness list was Joel Kirby, who was much older........ than Anderson. Believe he could be his father. Would appreciate anything you run across on Joel. Children of Anderson include a David Overton Kirby and William Shelton Kirby. So believe there could be Overton and/or Shelton connections. Appreciate any input. Thanks, wayne in fla 09/21 14:49 TIME: 11/22 5:08 PM TO: WAYNE WARLICK (DGMT22A) FROM: J KENNETH KERBY (PRDV01A) SUBJECT: KERBY/KIRBY If you are back to Albemarle Co., you probably are definately (how about that!) tied in with the Richard Kearby family. Everyone, up to now, as considered him the progenitor of this line, but I am beginning to wonder. There are just TOO many people with the same name floating around to have come from one person. I am having a hard time getting access to Albemarle records here to try and trace all of this. My ggGF had land deeded to him there after he removed to Rutherford Co., TN. This was following the death of his father, Henry. There seem to be Henrys all over the place. At least three or four in Tennessee, three of four in North Carolina, and three or four in Virginia, plus some in South Carolina. There are at least four Anderson Kerby/Kirbys out there. One is definately in Halifax/Pittsylvania Virginia and he belongs to this family of Richard Kearby, but about three generations removed. The family of John Kearby, son of Richard, married into the Anderson family. This is in the Quaker records for that area. I got into a Virginia Highways book some time back, but did not get to copy the data. There was a Henry Kerby in Albemarle who was running a road crew there that went by Thomas Jeffeson's land. There were Henry Kerbys there after my Henry Kerby was already in Tennessee. Other names that surface repeatedly are Hawkins Kerby and Pleasant Kerby and they are in multiple states. These, of course, are family names also. I still haven't made a connection with those families either. I think that there were several Joel Kerbys also. I'll have to check my records to see were they may be located. Richard Kearby was in Essex, Goochland, Albemarle and Amherst counties, before going to Halifax. He didn't move, the counties did. He sold this land in 1752 or 1754 when he moved with sons, John and Francis, and possibly others to Halifax. He evidentally left some sons behind, or he had brothers there who created these other families that were there after he left. We probably need to consolidate our information and searches so that we can get through this research there expeditiously. Ken TIME: 01/06 12:39 PM TO: DEBORAH NOVACEK (PNKR79A)FROM: J KENNETH KERBY (PRDV01A) SUBJECT: KEARBY\KERBY\KIRBY Thanks for your response. I have gotten side-tracked the past couple of days. Two of my boys came out and spent the day Saturday.....one boy is in Reno, NV...out your way... and the daughter is in Hot Springs, AR. But the big jolt has come from a Zane that I contacted from the member list who has sent me SIX pages six-screen long on the E-Mail the past two days. Lots of stuff that I hadn't heard before & the names of some other researchers...more letters to write. I've gotten about three issues of the new Kerby newsletter together and working on some more. I may just have to skip some issues and get that Greene County stuff in there for you...out of sequence. I am sure you belong to the Kearby group ......how 'cum you keep spelling it kIrby after reading those early records with the E in there?? It may have changed later, but in Greene Co., TN, it is Kerby. Interesting to note from your IGI microfilm printouts that my Jeremiah Kerby wasn't there. Those records are tenative at best. Not many of them have the source but they do give you a place to look. Did you know that those numbers over on the right side are source files that they have in Salt Lake and that you can get copies of most of them? Ask you FHC librarian about them....or go over to the Gen Resource board under FHC and ask there. A lot of the FHC folks are on that board giving advice and assistance. I downloaded 2,000,000 bytes of Zane, including Sain - not related, from FHC here and almost NONE of it was connected, but it did give me some names, dates and localities. Watch all those Kearbys in VA and NC. Your Christopher was in Wilkes Co., NC before going to Greene Co., TN. Shown as KIT in the census records. The dates that you sent will help to place him in a time and place. I have NEVER at this point seen a Christopher in Halifax County, VA. Most folks seem to thing everybody there was descended from Richard, but I'm finding so many folks both there and back up in Albemarle/Amherst Cos that I think he must have had other sons who didn't come to Halifax.....or didn't get involved with the Friends ... or that the original Richard Kearby might have had some brothers up there who kept sending out these families. For example, there are Henrys all over VA and TN. And then there are these family names tied in with them through the use of their names as given names......Pleasant Kearby, Larkin Kearby, Hawkins Kearby. SOMEWHERE, we must tie with these families. Ken TIME: 01/06 11:00 PM TO: TAMI NEFF (HJSN35A) FROM: J KENNETH KERBY (PRDV01A) SUBJECT: KEARBY\KERBY\KIRBY Tami, I am just beginning to put the newsletter together and because of costs it will just be shared with those who help provide information for it, my immediate family, and possibly some genealogical societies and/or libraries. It is a labor of love and a way to help get all this stuff together where it can be shared. NONE of us has the time and possibly money to look everywhere. >> I have some Wilkes County data, but I have not been into Caldwell County. Many, many years ago..1952..my mother and I stopped in the NC Archives at Raleigh for her to primarily search for my maternal lines. I did pick up a few items on Kerbys, but I was not very knowledeable about it then. Almost all of those folks in the counties adjacent to Halifax/Pittsylvania/Henry etc Counties of Virginia, such as Wilkes, Stokes, Surry were from the same roots which is conceded to be Richard Kearby. I'm not too sure about this tho as there are so many Henrys and other names that he may have had some brothers up there in Goochland, Albemarle & Amherst before he went south to Halifax. At least, he may have had more sons than those presently connected to him. I've been collecting ALL the data on most of these various spellings of Kerby where ever I can find them. I just haven't had time to get to them all. I have the 1820, 1830, 1840 and some 1850 census records for TN; 1790 for NC & VA, and a few others; also some for SC. These folks spread out all over. They migrated from VA to NC, SC, AL, GA, TN, KY, and from there to MS, TX, MO, etc. I have not..yet..gotten the middle 1800s from NC as my family came into Rutherford Co, TN about 1800. I realize now that I need those late date persons in NC and VA, to help separate the families and trace their whereabouts. Every time that I get some of them up past 1850 or so, I have eliminated them from my lines. I have found a deed naming all my ggGFs brothers, sisters, brother-in-laws, and mother and father which places them in Albemarle Co., VA, about 1750. The other notes on here from Debbie place her in Greene Co., TN, and previously in Wilkes Co., NC. I'd be interested in anything that you have to share and would be pleased to exchange data with you. Anything that we can help each other with, will eventually help others. ...If you'd care to write, please post your "new" address. Mad Anthony Wayne! I had Ruddles up there with Tecumseh. They were captured as children. Now you can learn about how Tecumseh told the southern tribes that when they were ready to strike the whites there would be a sign, and we had the great earthquakes of 1811/12! Ken TIME: 01/16 11:28 PM TO: ALL FROM: RUTHE BERNER (WRXC76A) SUBJECT: KIRBY/CHECK THIS OUT In the genealogy, THE KIRBYS OF NEW ENGLAND by Melatiah Everett Dwight, I found the following information about a crazy marriage between George KIRBY and Frances POTTER: "During a terrible New England snowstorm two or three coaches met at a farmhouse in the Berkshire Hills and were forced to stay until the storm abated. While the hospitable host and hostess did their utmost to entertain the elder quests, the younger ones were bequiled by the host's troop of rosy-cheeked daughters to play games and have a merry time generally. When all the games had been played, someone proposed a mock marriage. After a little discussion, they agreed to draw lots to see who should be the participants. The lots fell to George Kirby snd Fanny Potter, both of whom had entered into the spirit of the evening with a keen zest; and they, notwithstanding they had never met before that night, announced themselves as ready and only waiting for a clergyman. One and another offered their services, but no one was able to remember the ceremony. Finally a 'seedy individual' was procured from some place, who knew the ceremony only too well, and they were soon pronounced man and wife amid the shouts and laughter of their gay companions. As soon as the storm broke the travellers proceeded on their way. But the surprise and indignation of all parties can better be imagined than described on receiving notice that the marriage was legal and binding. The 'seedy individual' was a magistrate! George Kirby, who was engaged to marry a very dear friend of his only sister, found himself in a very awkward position, and Miss Potter equally so. Consultation after consultation was held. Mr. Potter used all his influence to have the marriage set aside but to no avail. Divorces were not granted without a cause in those days, and the grim New England laws knew no such word as 'fun'. So they wisely made the best of a bad matter, and were man and wife in earnest as they had been in fun." E. Glenn.......am trying to identify parents of Anderson J. Kirby of Albemarle Co. born 1806. A Noel Kirby witnessed his marriage in 1825. Anderson moved to Missouri in 1840. My guess that Noel is his father, but not sure. Noel held land on Buck Island.

I have copied several pages from different sources that I have not checked in yet for your George Washington Lewis but here is the information I have from the IGI files: It shows a George W. Lewis, AND THIS MIDDLE INITIAL MAY NOT STAND FOR WASHINGTON, as being the son of John Lewis does not give a wife/mother's name, he was 9 yrs of age in 1850, Matthews Co. Va. George W. Lewis, as being born to Walter D. Lewis in 1835 in Accomack Co., Va., George W. Lewis, marrying Eliza. Hardy, 03 Oct. 1846, Pittsylvania Co., Va. George W. Lewis in the census as being two yrs. old in 1850 and the son of Morgan Lewis, no mother in Pendleton Co. Va. George W. Lewis as being one year old in 1860 and the son of Perry Lewis, no wife/mother given, in Hardy Co., Va. and now to George Washington Lewis as marrying Catherine Dangerfield On 15 Oct. 1779 in Spotsylvania Co.

Kirby from Albemarle Co., Va. I just found out about the
placement of my Kirby family in Albermarle Co., Va. through a
contact on Prodigy. Frances Smith #HFMF83A and I have been
corresponding and feel quite sure that we are both descendents
of Henry Kirby Sr. who was from Albemarle Co., Va. (I am
guessing completely about his birth date >>>>> judging by the
age of his son, but I would guess around the 1760s.) I am
descended from Henry Kirby Jr. who was born in 1788, and was the
son of Henry Kirby Sr. Frances is descended from Nancy Kirby
who we believe was the daughter of Henry Kirby Sr. It would
seem that time wise your Anderson could be a grandson of Henry
Kirby Sr. We have not been able to find the names of all of
Henry Kirby Sr.s children but he had a total of 9 children. So
you have any information that might tie into this family?
Glenda in Santa Maria, Ca. P.S. Read the note that I just

This is my third time to write it. I write three pages and when I start to go to the fourth page my screen goes blank---my letter is erased and my message on the screen says "Communication Error". This time I'm not going to take any chances. I am going to start another note when I finish the third page. I appreciate all of the information that you sent to me. I am so happy to know that our Henry Kirby Sr. was from Albermarle Co., Virginia. It will really help me narrow my research down to the correct area of Virginia. I just received a copy of the inventory of the estate of Henry Kirby Sr. It is from Rutherford Co., Tenn. How interesting it is! It lists everything big and small down to one soup spoon. I'm sure you would enjoy looking at it if you haven't seen it yet. Continued on next note.......... Frances, This seemed a good place to start my second note. I will list all that I have on Henry Kirby Sr. & Jr. Let me know what you do not have and what you would like and I will be happy to send it to you. 1. Inventory of estate of Henry Kirby (Sr.). 2. 1800 Albemarle Co., VA Tax List. >>>>>>>>> 3. Letters of Administration on the personal estate of Henry Kirby (Sr.). 4. Obituary for Ann Kirby from book--"Some Rutherford Co., Tenn. Cemetery Records", by Jill K. Garrett U Iris H. McClain. This shows that on 30 Aug. 1828 she died at the age of 69. The obituary for Henry Kirby Jr. is also on this page. 5. 1810 Rutherford Co., Tenn. census that shows a female over the age of 45 living with Henry Kirby (Jr.). Henry Kirby Jr. was about 22 years old at this time. I believe that this is probably Ann the wife of the late >>>>>>>> Henry Kirby Sr. 6. I do not have the 1820 census---can't find it. 7. 1830 Rutherford Co., Tenn. census that shows a female between the ages of 70-80 living with Henry Kirby Jr. This is the last year that an elderly female is shown on the census with Henry Kirby Jr. This would indicate that she died between 1830 and 1840. Look back at the information concerning the obituary for Ann Kirby. It says that she died in Aug. 1828. I have not figured this one out yet. I wonder if the date in the book could be incorrect. (I'm not going to take any chances, will start new note) Continued from second note.......... Frances, So far I've got the other two notes entered.. Let's try for this third. I would like to see the original newspaper obituary. I wonder if the National Banner or Nashville Whig in Tennessee are still available for viewing. 8. I have the l850, 1860, 1870 and 1880 Rutherford Co.>>> Tenn. census reports for Henry Kirby Jr. 9. Marriage bond for Henry R. Kirby and Mary Hudson from Rutherford Co., Tenn on 21 Dec. 1811. Let me know what you want copies of. Do you have a birth date for Henry Kirby Sr.? Where he was married and when? Do you have any idea who his father and mother were? Also have you ever researched the theory about his being a descendent of John Seay. It does seem that Floyd Wickenkamp had researched it pretty thoroughly doesn't it. The article about your Lewis C. Anthony was very interesting. How lucky for you to have this information. What stories he would have been able to tell! Don't you wish that you could have sat down and had a long talk with him....... Well I made it!!!!!! Didn't get disconnected this time. I wonder if I might have had a loose wire in my connection somewhere. I pushed everything in really tight and everything seems to be O.K. now. Anxious to hear from you, Glenda TIME: 04/16 12:19 PM TO: GLENDA FERRARI (TNDH52B) FROM: MICHAEL HALL (RSKJ58A) SUBJECT: KIRBY The late J. Kenneth Kirby of this board was the expert on the Kirby family. Before he died he sent me a small portion of his Kirby research. Among them is one page (from what I know not) which states that 0n NOv 19, 1772 the will of John Kerby Sr was made in Pittsylvania County Va. Among his children were David (my wife's ancestor who moved to Warren Co. Ky) and a Henry. J Kenneth Kirby said this family lived in Albermarle County after John Sr died. This could be your Henry and his father John. There are deeds in Lunenburg Co Va from John to son Henry, John Jr, Jesse and Joseph (or Josiah). John first appears with wife in 1740 in Goochland Co Va. Wife was Joanna. By 1767 his wife was one Hannah when he and she left the Quakers for the Baptists. All of this is very second hand but my belief is that it is your Henry. John Sr's dDad was Richard, wife Elizabeth. All credit for this goes to J. Kenneth Kerby Mike in AL TIME: 04/16 6:12 PM TO: MICHAEL HALL (RSKJ58A) FROM: GLENDA FERRARI (TNDH52B) SUBJECT: KIRBY Mike, Thanks so much for writing. I am very interested i the information that you have. It really sounds like you might have helped me locate the parents and grandparents of my Henry Kirby Sr. Have you ever heard anything about the Kirby family being of French Huguenot descent? Frances Smith #HFMF83A and I have been corresponding for the last couple of weeks and think that we are from the same Kirby line. She has helped me alot. We believe that her Nancy Kirby that married Lewis C. Anthony is the daughter of Henry Kirby Sr. She was born in 1785. I am descended from Henry Kirby Srs. son Henry Kirby Jr. born around 1788. Frances has an article that was written about Lewis C. Anthony and it says that he married Miss Nancy Kirby, of Albemarle Co., Va., who was of French-Huguenot descent. Do you have any knowledge of a William Kirby of Goochland Co., Va. who married an Alley Seay? Would you mind sending me copies of the information that you have concerning this family. I will pay for the copies and postage. Let me know how much to send and your address and I will mail it to you. If I have any thing that you might be interested in I will be happy to send to you. You might want to read the three notes that I posted to Frances. My address is 953 N. Tyler Drive, Santa Maria, Ca. 93454. Glenda TO: MICHAEL HALL (RSKJ58A) FROM: GLENDA FERRARI (TNDH52B) SUBJECT: KIRBY Mike, I thought of this after I had already sent the other note. Do you have a family group sheet for John Kirby Sr. and Richard Kirby? I would love one if you send me copies of the material you have. Thanks, Glenda TO: TNDH52B SUBJECT: KIRBY DATE: 04/17/1992 Glenda......sorry for the delay, but have not been on *P for
three days. You guys seem to making lots of progress. Have been
trying unsuccessfully to tie Anderson Kirby (1806-1887) to
Henry, or other Albemarle Co. names, and ultimately Richard with
little luck. Looks like Mike has a good handle on it. The
solid info I have is that Anderson J. Kirby...... was born 2 Feb
1806 in Albemarle. He died 31 Mar 1887 in Saline Co., MO. He
married Mary Ann Moyer on 7 Nov 1825 in Albemarle. I found, and
the copied the original, in the Albe. Co. records in
Charlottesville. The marriage was witnessed by Noel Kirby, who
I'm guessing was his father, since Noel shows in the land
records as early as 1803 and in the 1810 census as head of
household. Other Ki(e)rbys in 1810 Albe. Co. census include
Benjamin, James, Sarah, Elizabeth, Susannah and William. 1820
census shows Chapman, James, Jno., Larkin and Wm. Kirby. Land
records include transfers between the Kirbys...... from Benjamin
to Richard in 1801, Charles McGhee (non-Kirby) to Noel in 1803,
Richard to Wm Farris (non-Kirby) in 1805, Noel to Benjamin in
1809, N. (perhaps Noel) to James Kirby in 1822, N. Kirby to
Allen Kirby in 1841 and A. Kirby to Elizabeth in 1851. There
are more Kirby land records in the courthouse at
Charlottesville. Much of the Kirby land was on or near Buck
Island, which I am not too sure of location in Albemarle. I
believe the original Richard Kirby land (1730) was on north side
of James River, very near present day Scottsville. Also, have
marriage of "Noel Kirby(Biley) to Sally Bushop (Bishop) on 14
January 1794," witnessed by.. Noel Biley and others. In Saline
Co., have an Overton J. Kirby 1838 marriage. Possible that
Overton was related to Anderson. The surnames Anderson,
Overton, Nichols and Shelton show up as middle names for
children of Anderson. I have been struggling with this for
some time, so appreciate your input. Believe Noel might well be
a child of Henry Sr. The name Larkin Kirby also pops up lots in
the early 1800's. Hope this helps. Will stay in touch.

Received a large and fact filled package of material from Mr. Wickenkamp on Monday. Still trying to digest it all. Lots of new information. I was not sure that the parents of Anderson Kirby were Noel Kirby and Sally Bishop, but this has been confirmed by Mr. W. Noel's grandparents were Francis Kearby and Mary ??, as you already know, but which was totally new to me. >>>>> Noel's father was most likely William or Henry, Sr. per Mr. W., so we may have a common bond in Henry Sr., surely in in Francis and Mary. Based on quick review, it would appear that Henry Sr. is the most likely, since his children are mostly unknown, but Wm's seem to be pretty well identified. A side note. Anderson's daughter and my g-grandmother, Lavania, married George Washington Johnson. GW Johnson was born in Indiana, his father, James, in >>>> Ohio, abt 1795. GWJ fought for the south. Have been unable to obtain any other firm data on the Johnsons, but, nevertheless, have suspicioned that they may also have originated in Albemarle Co., before their move to Ohio about 1790. Mr. W. has added fuelto this fire with info that Anderson's oldest brother, John, married Susan JOHNSON in Albemarle in 1816. They and their son Overton Johnson Kirby moved to Saline Co., Mo. in 1836. The Johnsons arrived between 1837 and 1840. The Anderson Kirby family arrived in 1840. A semi-long shot, but Susan may be the link to the Johnson family that I'm chasing. Still pondering the possible connections to the Anderson and Overton families. Intend to review all Mr. W's data and enter it into PAF. Perhaps things will be more clear after that. THANKS very much for putting me in contact with Mr. W.

Thanks for the Christopher/Jeremiah KERBY info. I'll be
watching for this KERBY family. I would love to be able to
someday link my line with Ken's, and find out if Ken's line
really goes back to Richard KEARBY as he thought! I wonder if
any of Ken's children will keep the KERBY and ZANE work going?

born about 1788 in Va. He married Mary Hudson on 21 Dec. 1811 in
Rutherford Co., Tenn. He died around Nov. 1880 in
Rutherford Co., Tenn. The children of Henry R. Jr. and
Mary Hudson Kirby were: Janie, Martha, Adeline, America,
James, George, Lorinia, Louisa and my 3rd great
grandmother Sarah Ann Kirby. Sarah was born 4 Dec. 1814
in Tenn. She married James Madison Anderson on 11 Oct. 1832

"Vestry Book of St. Paul's Vestry, Hanover County, Va.,
1706-1786" edited by C. G. Chamberlayne, found brief
reference to Henry Jr. and William in a 1760 land

Hanover before Albemarle. Looks like he may be correct. I have

Subject: Kirby Family
Sent on: 08/10 at 08:11 PM
Wayne, I am so sorry that I have not answered your last note. I
was very happy to hear from you but I kept putting off writing
hoping everyday that I would get something in the mail from the
family of J. Kenneth Kerby. I got one letter from his son
and had written him back and was hoping to get his reply so I
could let you know more. His son said that the family records
had been obtained by his sister and she is unwilling to share
with the rest of them. Isn't that a shame! I wrote back and
told him how sad that this is, for someone to work as hard as
I'm sure his dad had on this family history and then for a
daughter to take it and not even share with her brothers and
sisters. I know the reason I am
doing my family research is to pass it on down from
generation to generation and hope that someone carries on the
informtion that I have obtained from now on to my descendants.
He said that he had recently come across a Kerby disk in a
packed box and was trying to find out if it was still good.
He sid that he would send me a Kerby print out that his father
had made for him. He said that he would contact me as soon as
he found out anything. He first wrote me on June 28th and I
haven't heard anything since. Sure hope he gets the
information.
You know I was kind of disappointed in Mr. Wickenkamp.
He didn't send me but a small amount of information and most of
it was about the other Henry Kirby family that was from
Halifax Co., Va. The Henry Kirby that was the son of John
Kirby and Joanna Owen. I don't think that this Henry Kirby is
the same as my Henry Kirby that was from Albemarle Co., Va.
do you? I don't know if Mr. Wickenkamp thought that this
was the family that I was researching or what. What did he send
you? Do you think that there is anything that you might have
that is about my Henry Sr. and Henry Jr. I think your family
and my family are the same don't you? I would appreciate any
copies that you could send me. Let me know what you have and
I will look through my records to see if I have anything about
your family. Tell me again who you are descended from.
I am writing this note in a super hurry as I am
watching my grandson that is almost 2 years old for 10 days
and NIGHTS and he has been sick so I don't have very much
spare time. He is taking a nap right now but is due to wake up
anytime. Nice hearing from you again. Glenda
08/11/92 SEND TO: GLENDA FERRARI (TNDH52B) SUBJECT: Kirby Family Glenda.....thanks for nice reply. At this point I am VERY confused about the Kirbys. Have been trying to make sense of the material Mr. W. sent me and the messages on the BB by Lerneda and Jan. Toooo many Henrys, Williams and Francis Kirbys. Mr. W. provided info on land grants, marriages and some Family Group Record sheets. Also, an article by Mrs. Dennstedt of San Diego (I think she is from a family that held our mortgage>>> in San Diego when I was a kid !!) on the "Owen-Kearby-Turley Connection". Will be glad to copy any of the above, but need an address please. My ancestor is Noel Kirby (abt 1770- 1841) married to Sally Bishop in 1794, Albemarle Co. Mr. W. believes Noel's father was either Henry Sr. or William, but seems sure that his grandfather was Francis. Believe he thinks that your Henry Jr. and Noel were brothers. Hard to tell from the letter. Noel's son, Anderson (1806/1887) moved to Saline Co., MO, in 1840. Anderson is my great-great grandfather. Had some exchanges with J. Kenneth Kerby on the several Anderson Kirbys. He was so very helpful. It is a shame that his daughter is secreting the data he wanted shared. Mr. W. has not searched the Hanover Co. records. He thought there was a possibility that some data might be uncovered in those records. I have found mention of Henry Sr., Jr. William and John Kirby there in 1759. When I can find more Hanover data, will keep searching. wpw in fla 08/11/92 11:58 08/11/92From: GLENDA FERRARI (TNDH52B) Subject: Kirby Family Sent on: 08/11 at Wayne, I agree that there are too many Henrys etc. I do believe that there is at least two Henry Jrs. and Henry Srs. I found a Jr. and Sr. after my Sr. had died. I also believe that the ones in Halifax Co. are different than the ones in Albemarle Co. I think that the way you have it figured out is correct. Or at least on the right tract. Mr. W. sent me the article about Owen-Keary-Turley" which I don't think is the right family, Fluvanna Co., Va. Marriages, Kirby Deeds in Albemarle and Nearby Counties, Virginia, Albemarle Co., Va. Marriages, Information on Plats of Surveys of Land in Albemarle and Fluvanna Counties, Fluvanna County, Virginia Circuit Court. He really did sind a lot ot information. I guess it had been so long since I reviewed it that I had forgotten everything that he did send. Do you have anything else. Would love to receive anything.

TABER (WRXC76A) SUBJECT: KIRBY Hi Lara, In "The Kirbys of New
England", the author says, "The name of Kirby is probably one
of Danish origin. It was originally written Kirkby, from Kirke,
meaning church, and bye, dwelling. ... The earliest appearance
of the name as designating a particular family is found in
the title given to the barons of Kirkby Kendal in
Westmoreland." This was at the time of William the Conqueror.
So, from this, it appears that the Kirbys who came to the new
world were from families who had lived in Britain for centuries.
You might want to try to borrow the book. The author has a
lot more to say. Ruthe
Melatiah Everett Dwight, THE KIRBYS OF NEW ENGLAND
(New York: The Trow Press, 1898), pp. 3-4.
I am seeking information on the KERBY/KIRBY and
LOFTUS/LOFTIS families.
