Mrs. Presley Carter b. c 1720 Prob. Lancaster, Va: Devin Timber

News: After 30 years, Devin Timber is being decommissioned! After January 2027, this site will no longer be available. Web hosting costs continue to raise at rates that cannot be sustained on a limited income. In addition, finding volunteer expertise needed to administer the technical side of hosting a site, such as this, is challenging.

A Devin Timber group project has been set up at FamilySearch.org. FamilySearch has the tools and the long experience with collaborative genealogy and is available to everyone without cost. All documents and citations found on the current Devin Timber are being migrated to the records on FamilySearch.

If you have access to Ancestry, a public member tree, named "Devin Progeny," is a copy of the tree on the current Devin Timber. The Devin Progeny tree is being used to help evaluate research accuracy using the DNA samples from descendants of William & Sarah Devin. The Ancestry Devin Progeny tree will not be supported with documentation or citations due to the cost of Ancestry subscriptions.

[S67727] Mary Frances Reynolds Eggleston.
Here's the Working Hypothesis:

1. Thomas Sr. (1630-1700) & Katherine Dale Carter
2. James of Stafford (1684-1743) and Hannah Neale [mother Ursula Presley]
3. Presley Carter S.1. (1720-xxxx) - for his Grand mother
[Richard has to be born before 1745 - so this narrows the possibilities for his father]
4. Richard of Halifax (ca. 1745-1786) and Frances Unknown * [proposed Grandson of James]
this dating would well fit with the first purchase of 400 acres in 1767 in Halifax ... and ... he names a son Presley *, befitting the tradition for using grand parents, rather than parents.
* Separately, Frances almost "has" to be a Neale because of the naming of their children.
