For
Allan R. Jones:
I find your e.mail interesting.
My Quaker ancestors William & Martha
Cox Ferrall married in
Delaware in 1744 and went to
South Carolina, Fredericksburg, by the mid to late 1750's. From there they went to
Campbell Co., Virginia, Lynchburg and affiliated with the South River Monthly Meeting. Here they met the Quaker
Fisher family who had come from
Bucks Co., Pa, after living briefly in Old
Frederick Co., Va and
Loudoun Co., Va., Fairfax Meeting.
I am related to a
Jones family of
Chester Co. Hannah
Jones dau of
Evan Jones (
Bradford) married James
Starr 1746. Their daughter Rachel married Thomas
Woodward (out of unity) in 1779. I am a descendant through their son
Eli Woodward who married Catherine
Wolf. From
Chester Co., Pa, to
Rockingham Co., Va., Ky to
Preble Co., Ohio was the route Thomas & Rachel
Starr Woodward would take in their life journey.
It appears there was early migration from the north to
South Carolina by some Quakers.
