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

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.

[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.
