Hello CLANTON Family. Considering that I am a direct descendent of Abbigail "Abby" (CLANTON) Holt who is my 7th great-grandmother on my mother's mother's side.

Nathaniel Holt was married to Abbigail/Abigail/Abby/Abba CLANTON and had the following Children:
Drury Holt b. December 29, `759 in Albemarle Parish, Virginia
Elizabeth Rogers, d. February 16, 1835
John Holt
Nancy Holt
Molly Holt
Lucy Holt
Elizabeth Holt
b. November 21, 1767

I come out of Nathaniel Holt and Abby Clanton's son Drury Holt and his wife Elizabeth Rogers... who is said to be related to the great Will Rogers and Tiana Rogers, wife of the renound Sam Houston.

Abbigail/Abigail/Abby/Abba CLANTON is related somehow to the CLANTON Gang. Henry CLANTON is either her direct kin or was the brother of her direct kin.

I'll update this as I find out more. I lost some files when the PC crashed... I can't seem to find it in the back-ups.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Peace and blessings.

Hello Clanton Family. I just found one of my old notes...

Here is my direct blood connection to Ike and Billy Clanton of the O.K. Corral fame...

Abbigail/Abigail/Abby/Abba Clanton, daughter of John and Lucy Clanton, b 17 Apr 1742... married Nathaniel Holt d by 3 Nov 1814, will probated Sussex Co., VA. Abby (Clanton) Holt is my 7th great-grandmother.

Henry Clanton was Newman Haynes "Old Man" Clanton's father.

Newman Haynes Clanton marries Mariah Sexton Kelso in Callaway County Missouri. Together they would have five sons and two daughters. John Wesley, Phineas Fay Clanton, Joseph Isaac "Ike" Clanton, Mary Elsie Clanton, Ester Ann "Hettie" Clanton, Alonzo Peter Clanton, and William Harrison "Billy" Clanton.

So, since Abby Clanton is the daughter of John and Lucy Ann Clanton... that makes Henry Abby's brother. Now, since Henry was Ike and Billy Clanton's grandfather... that makes Abby (Clanton) Holt the great-aunt of Ike and Billy Clanton.

Neat huh?

Looking forward to hearing from you cousins.
Peace and blessings.

Do you have any info on Issac Clanton and William Calnton? There is a story in my family about William M. Hall confessing on his deathbed that he really was a Clanton of the Clanton Gang/Family. Story has it that he was an outlaw and he changed his name to William M. Hall. William is my 4xG.Grandfather. He met his wife in Kansas, I believe. He and an aquaintance rode into town firing their six-shooters. Family members say that one day he received a letter. He went outside, read the letter and then burned it. Letter possibly from his sister. I would really like to know more about him. Unable to find him before the 1920 Census in Hominy, Oklahoma. I do have his record of funeral. The census states him being born in TX, mother and father unknown. Please, let me know something. Thanx!!! Sarah
