News: Looking for females who are in the pure female lines (mother to daughter) from William and Sarah who are willing to do an mtDNA test. Such a person would be descended along an all female line from Mary DEVIN Biggers or Margaret DEVIN Reynolds. The hope is to identify the markers for Sarah SMITH Devin to help identify her parents. Contact the webmaster if interested.

Devin descendant, Stanley Wayne Devin, passed away at 1:30 a.m. on Dec. 4, 2014. He was the last living child of Ira & Oleta Devin.

      Notes 
      • MARRIAGE:
        1st: Knox Co IN: Ind. Source Book II; Pom.Lib.R929.3772 Ind.V.2
        This book gave the license date as 7 Oct 1809.

        3rd:

        "The Devin Family" says her third husband is William Wright. "Ten Generations of Rev. Alexander Devin" says her third husband was Philbert Wright (father of her daughter, Sarah's husband). Possible DOM 15 Nov 1822 to John Wright. In Washington Co IN there is a probate file for Philip Beck dated 25 Nov 1831;
        wife: Elizabeth Beck; daughter: Sarah Beck, under 18; Executor: Wm. Wright
        Probate Court Minute Book B, p 64. IF THIS INFORMATION IS CORRECT, PERHAPS THE above DOM ELIZABETH DEVIN TO JOHN WRIGHT IS WRONG.

        Moved with parents from Pittsylvania County, Virginia to Warren County, Kentucky in 1798. Moved with parents to Gibson County, Indiana in 1808.
