Thankful Doak, (Immigrant)

Notes:

some researchers show her name as Elizabeth Thankful.

(Vol 2 #1871)
She married John Finley on 10 April 1724 in Chester Co, Virginia.
Notes for THANKFUL DOAK:
Born *at sea on the way to America, probably 1704-6. Lived in East Nottingham township, Chester Co., PA. Had brothers Samuel, David, John and Robert. Brothers also migrated to Augusta Co., VA - said to have migrated to VA by 1740. Brother John had daughter, Thankful, baptized 1743, said to have married Maj. Wm. Hall.

* Note: theory of Thankful being born at sea 1704 seems to have been disproven.

1740: Received patent for 183 acres and one for 300 acres in 1741 on a branch of Cathey's River ... also called Middle River (VA Land Office, Patent #19,reel 17, p. 852; Patent #20, reel 18, p. 83).

1742: Only Finley listed in Augusta County Militia in 1742 in Company No. 1, James Patton,
Col. and John Smith, Capt. (William Armstrong Crozier, "Virginia Colonial Militia," Baltimore: Southern Book Co., 1954, p. 91).

1745: John Finley assigned to open road from Andrew Hamilton in Calf Pasture through Jennings Gap to John Finlas, 9 December 1745 (Chalkley I:13).

1746-1778: In Middle River area.
(Chalkley I:18, III:255, III:271, II:433, II:436, III:276, II:442, II:440, III:358, III:462, III:470,
II:407, I:177, III:128, II:408, I:200,)
Including: 1767: A deed from John and Thankful Finley to son, George for 176 acres on 7 November 1767 (Chalkley II:462) and payment to Thankful Finley by Samuel Craig on 17 March 1773 (Chalkley III:128).

1783: He appears on tax list in Middle River area, Capt. McKittricks Co., taken
10 April 1783. (LDS film #00292288).

1786-87 He also appears on personal property tax list of 1786 and 1787 with son David. This must be the John Finley who wrote his will 17 August 1791 (WB 7:404), naming son, David, as executor. David subsequently sells the property first patented by this John Finley in 1741 and 1768 (DB 28:268).

Died:
It is not known how much longer Thankful lived. However, David sold his entire holdings on 1 October 1794 to John Johnston for 9C1,100 and moved on, suggesting, perhaps, that Thankful had died prior to that time.

Thankful married John Finley, (immigrant) on 10 Apr 1724 in Lancaster Co, Pennsylvania. John (son of James Finley and Elizabeth Patterson) was born on 18 Dec 1706 in Dublin, Ireland; died before 20 Sep 1791 in South River, Augusta Co, Virginia. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

(See Carmen J. Finley, "The George Finleys of Augusta County, VA," The American Genealogist, 64 (October 1989):216-225.)

Property:
On 17 November 1767, John and Thankful deeded 179 acres of their property to their son, George, for five shillings. George, however, soon moved to Washington County about 170 miles to the southwest and sold his Middle River property to Robert and Margaret Clendenen for 9C16, less than five years after it was given to him. The Clendenens, in turn, sold it back to John and Thankful three years later for five shillings.

George married Jane Lyle about 1770. Jane was born about 1742; died after 1810 in of, Logan Co, Kentucky. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Her father's will stated, "I give and bequeath to my beloved daughter Thankful McKarter six shillings Currancy..." (Augusta County WB 7:404). Her whereabouts has not been established although when a John Finley married Margaret Kerr in Knox Co, in 1793, a Jeremiah McCarter served as bondsman. (Knox Co, TN Marriages, Archives - Knox Co Public Library, p. 337).

Thankful married Mr. (..) McCarter (McKarter) about 1759. (..) was born about 1735; died after 1793. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Birth date is that given by Stout (p. 104) and baptism at Tinkling Spring, but this John is not shown with other siblings in Wilson's records (p. 474).
According to Stout, he moved to Lincoln County (now Gaston), NC on south fork of Catawba, 1762. In 1766 fought in Capt. Adam Alexander's milita against Cherokees. In 1774 was with Capt. Evans Shelby at battle of Pt. Pleasant. In 1780 was . Edmondson's Co. at battle of Kings Mountain. (Stout's 5-02-111). Granddaughter, Mary (Polly) through son, William, is said to have been the second wife of Davey Crockett.
France says he enlisted in Captain Adam's Alexander company of NC militia on 7 June 1766 (NC State records vol. XII, page 396). He served with Lincoln men under Captain Evans Shelby in Battle of King's Mountain 7 October 1780. France give ge at death in 1818 as 76 years, 2 months.
In father's will, written 17 August 1791, he received one bed and furniture at "my beloved wife's decease," (Augusta County WB 7:404). As noted above, France and Stout believe he moved with brothers Robert and Thomas [James] to NC prior to. However, no evidence has been found to support this. In addition, there was a John Finley living adjacent to George Finley, proven son of John and Thankful, in Washington County, VA from about 1776 to 1792 (Lewis Preston Summers, "Annals of Southwest Virginia, 1769-1800," Baltimore: Genealogical PUblishing, 1970, pp. 957, 974, 1110, 1112, 1169, 1216, 1346; tax list of 1782 and 1786). This John Finley sold his 312 acres on Wallace's Branch, adjacent to George Finley on 31 October 1792 and was referred to as "of Knox County, Territory of United States Southwest of River Ohio" at that time (Washington County DB 1:305).
(See Carmen J. Finley, "The George Finleys of Augusta County, VA," The American Genealogist, 64 (October 1989):216-225.)
Other indications of migration to TN by descendants of John and Thankful exist. Alverta Brown Martin in her "Findley Family History," believes her ancestor, the brother, Robert, died in Blount County, TN.
France claims that William Finley, father of Polly who married David Crockett, was a son of this John Finley, and that William died in Jefferson County, TN. William FInley's will has been found and verified, dated 2 April 1818. In it hs children: James, William, Samuel, Jean Barns, Susanna Parks, Mary Crocket's children (John, William, Polly), Kennedy (Jefferson County, TN WB 2:237-239).

John married Ann Miller on 10 Apr 1762 in North Carolina (possibly). Ann was born about 1745 in North Carolina (possibly); died after 1805. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Named in father's will to receive a mare and negro woman "at my wife's death." Her son, John Trimble, also received a saddle and bridle (Augusta County WB 7:404). She was widowed prior to 29 October 1789, when her deceased husband was mentd in the will of John Trimble, Sr. (Augusta County WB 7:288).

Jean married Joseph Trimble about 1764 in Augusta Co (possibly), Virginia. Joseph was born about 1743; died before 29 Oct 1789 in Augusta Co, Virginia. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Named in will of John Finley, dated 17 August 1791 and proved 20 September 1791 (Augusta Co. WB 7:404) and received "one hundred and twenty pounds Virginia Currency with interest from this date." James' legacy was specified in a subsequent dd of transfer from his brother, David the executor, to John Shields, his brother-in-law [husband of Margaret] (Augusta County Deed of Transfer 1-A:122).
Note: Both the copy of the original will and Chalkley's abstract incorrectly list a son, Thomas, in place of James, but the 1793 deed of transfer clearly specifies James. It is commonly thought that this James died in Whitley County, KY. Al does exist there dated 15 December 1824 for a James Finley (LDS #532,092, Wills of Whitley County, KY). In his will he named Keziah, wife; children, James, Mary, Travis, Elizabeth, Robert. A descendant Lynda Chalk Welch, 5535 Willow Lane, Dallas, TX 75230 has done extensive work on this line. She claims his will is recorded in Whitley Co. WB I:39.
In the 1810 census of Knox (Whitley was formed 1818 from Knox) County, KY there was a James Finley, age 45+, with 1 male 10-16 and one female 26-45.
Note: It looks as though almost no original research has been done on this line since Albert Finley France. Lynda Welch's data differs a bit, but not significantly. The vital data given here are taken from Lynda.

James married Keziah Martin on 16 May 1769 in Staunton, Augusta Co, Virginia. Keziah was born on 3 Apr 1753 in Staunton, Augusta Co, Virginia; died on 5 Apr 1831 in Tyes Ferry, Whiteley Co, Kentucky; was buried in Siler Cemetery, Williamsburg, Whiteley Co, Kentucky. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Notes:

Married John Shields and moved to Amherst County. 2 September 1793, David and Elizabeth Finley of Augusta deed 76? acres (transferred from Robert Clendenen to John Finley 21 March 1775) to John Shields of Amhurst (Augusta Co. D of T, 1-A:122). This was to settle a debt (Margaret's legacy) and included provisions also for James Finley. It also included 110 acres patented to David (VSL, grant #24, 1791-92, Reel 90:385).
On 17 September 1802, Margaret Shields relinquished her right to the administration of her husband's, John Shields, estate, asking it be granted to their son, Robert Shields (Amhurst County DB I:405).
Heirs named in the settlement: Rachel who intermarried with James Montgomery, Thankful, Peggy, Robert, William, Alexander, Nathan and Rebecka Shields. James and Rachel Montgomery, Thankful and Peggy Shields, all of Amhurst County relinquheir undivided share in 247 acres on Hat Creek for 100 pounds on 3 June 1805 (Amhurst County DB K:323-324).
Information on children taken from LDS film #0874444, item 7, "Shields Family
Tree," compiled by Duncan H. McIntosh, 1719 Devers Road, Richmond, VA, 29 May 1965. Margaret's date of birth is taken from these records. Baptized December 1746 Augusta Co, Virginia.

(birth dates taken from finley doak.rtf by Lee Bain, furnished by Ralph.

Margaret married John Shields before 17 Aug 1791 in Augusta Co (possibly), Virginia. John was born in 1740 in Virginia; died before 17 Sep 1802 in Amherst Co (possibly), Virginia. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]

Other Events and Attributes:

• Military: Revolutionary War militia, Augusta Co, Virginia
• Census: 1787, Augusta Co, Virginia
• Residence: 1796, Blount Co, Tennessee

Notes:

He was baptized April 21, 1745, Augusta Co, Virginia.
Received 5 shillings from his father's estate. This Robert is most likely the ancestor of Alverta Brown Martin who wrote "Findley Family History; Our Grandfathers," Inglewood, CA: author, 1968, on file at Salt Lake City Mormon Library. e and Stout say he went to Lincoln County, NC prior to 1766 with his brothers John and Thomas [James].

While a Robert did appear in the 1790 census of Lincoln County, nothing has been found to tie him to the Augusta County Finleys. In addition, the Robert Finley found in Lincoln County died in 1791/92 leaving five minor children. He was too young to have been the son of John and Thankful. Martin believes Robert died in Blount County, TN.

Alverta Brown claims he was living in the vicinity of George Breckenridge, his wife's parents, when he and Sarah were married in 1777. Montgomery County records do confirm there was a Robert Finley in the area. On 6 September 1777, both Finley and George Breckenridge appeared on John Montgomery's list of persons who took the Oath of Allegiance (Kegley, "Militia of Montgomery County," p. 53).

On 8 April 1778, Robert was fined for refusing to go out to the Frontier after being called on (OB 1778-1780, p. 338).
On 5 May 1779, Robert Finley was on jury in Montgomery County (OB 2, 1774-1782, p. 197).
On 27 March 1783, Robert Finley had a survey made for 148 acres on Cove Creek, waters of Reed Creek, in Washington and Montgomery Counties; Breckinridge's line was mentioned in the description (Montgomery Co Survey Book C:118).

Alverta Brown claims Robert and his new family moved southward into the valley of the Holston River to the western border of North Carolina and then on to Blount County, Tennessee, where he first appeared on the tax records in 1800. No records have yet been found for him between the period 1783 (last appearance in Montgomery County) and 1796 (first appearance in Blount County), with the possible exception of the militia noted below. However, by 1792 he would have been getting a bit old to serve as a private in the militia.

Bount County was formed in 1795 from Knox County, which was formed from Greene and Hawkins in 1792. Greene was formed from Washington in 1783 and Hawkins from Sullivan in 1786; Sullivan from Washington in 1779. During the period 1792-17- John and a Robert Finley appeared as privates in McGaughey's Company, Hamilton District Militia, Territory south of the Ohio (Virgil D. White, "Index to Volunteer Soldiers, 1784-1811," Waynesboro, TN: National Historical Publishing Co., 1987, p. 218).

In Blount County Robert Finley first appeared in the records in 1796, along with John Finley, James Gillaspy and Alexander Read in a Grand inquest (LDS #888867, A-24).

In May 1801, Robert Finley appear in court along with John Trimble, James Montgomery, Jr., Alex Reid, Wm. Gillaspie, Sr., Wm. Henderson (LDS #888867, A-251).

In November 1806, Robert Finley and Hugh Hackney appeared in court (LDS #888867, B-259).

He appeared on the tax records in Blount County in 1800, 1801 and 1805.

On 22 December 1818, Robert Findley sold 271 acres on waters of Nails Creek to Alexander Shadden of Jefferson County, TN (Blount Co. DB 2:53).

This is the last record in Blount County for Robert Finley up through 1834.

Notes:

Alva Mead Jackson was born on June 8, 1916, in Boulder, Colorado. He was the eldest of two children born to John Alva Jackson and Alice Thomas Jackson. His father was the second of two generation of miners who worked in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains until October 1918, when the Spanish Influenza pandemic took the both him and his wife within two days of each other in Laramie, Wyoming.

His father, John Alva Jackson, was born April 17, 1895, in Kansas, the youngest of seven children of the westward traveling Burrel Andrew Jackson and Sarah Alice Barker Jackson. The Jackson family had passed through Indiana in the early 1800s, and during that period became very strong supporters of President Andrew Jackson. Indeed, after Burrel, it was rumored that the Jackson family had in fact descended from the president. This, of course, was impossible as President Jackson had sired no children himself ? he merely acted as guardian for nine children related to his wife Rachel and a family friend named Edward Butler. Most likely, the rumor started when one of John Alva?s sisters would jokingly describe herself as a ?daughter of Andrew Jackson? (more accurately, Burrel ?Andrew? Jackson).
