Patterson goup sheets James Patterson wives

The recorded work on this family was thru the efforts of SUSIE ELLERFAIR KNIGHT,deceased, grandmother to Dee Hall who generously sent me this valuable material for descendants. here is her lineage:
Joseph Cannon Baker and Faithy V. Baker were the children of John Baker and Mary Elizabeth Cannon. Enoch Asbury Knight and Rebecca Knight were also brother and sister and children of Richard Knight born 15 MAY 1768 in SC died 17 MAY 1855 AL and Martha Satterwhite. The sister and brother Knight married the sister and brother Baker. John Walter Knight was the son of Enoch Asbury Knight Sr. b: 25 DEC 1801 in Newberry SC and Faithy V. Baker born 10 January 1810 in Abbeville-see marker foto. Their son John Walter Knight married Emily Jane Dennis (second marriage for both) who had Susie Ellerfair Knight who married a Barkheimer.

Will of William Patterson, dated 1 Dec 1836, Probated 10 Jan 1837.
Know by all men present that I, William Patterson, of the State of Alabama, Montgomery County, do will and bequeath all my estate to my wife , Milly, during her life or widowhood, and afterward to be equally divided between all my children (unnamed).
Witnesses: Leonard Marbury, J.M. Horton
Executor: Not named
(recorded in Will Book 2:160, Montgomery County, Alabama)

Marriage 1 Permilia (Milly) UNKNOWN b: 1797 in Virginia Children

1. Violettia PATTERSON b: 2 Nov 1811 in SC

letter from Linda Patterson:
Our Adam married Permelia "Millie" Davis.
Her father was Joshua E. Davis (b. 1770 VA and
died 1861 in Abbeville, SC. Joshua is on the
Abbeville censuses 1820-1860). Right above
Joshua on the 1820 census is John G.Patterson,
who appears to be in the "age range" of
Joshua. Adam and Milly were married by 1820,
with several children. Since people usually
married people "close-by" I've always been
interested in this John G. Patterson---but
he kinda "dropped off the radar"---can't track
him on another census. There's several James,
Johns etc. in Abbeville from 1830 on.

I've chased down this Patterson family and
COULD NOT make a connection to Adam and
William at that time. Contacted a descendant
who said there was no Adam in their tree (or
anyone who went to Coosa Co., AL)...
... but if Adam's first name was James....
I'll have to go back into my notes and see
if the family researchers in this family have
anything about their James. Now we think
Adam's brother, William, was older than Adam.
William and Millie had a daughter who we
know was born in 1811 (the oldest
child that we know of--Violetta, who was
the second wife of Ebenezer Pond).

Name: James Patterson
Birth: Abt 1780 - Abbeville, SC (South Carolina)
Parents: Josiah C Patterson Born ABT 1751 in County
Tyrone, Ireland Died in Abbeville Co, SC 5 DEC 1835
married Margaret H. Carson
23 DEC 1779
Location: Abbeville Co, SC

Known Children:
1 James Patterson b abt 1780 SC
probably 1st born son

2 Sarah Carson Patterson
Born 8 OCT 1797 in Abbeville Co, SC
Died in Abbeville Co, SC 3 JUL 1863
Abbeville Co, SC

Marriage to Leonard Widema 24 DEC 1818
Children:
Margaret Carson
Nancy Smith
James Henry
Catharine
Mary S
Martha Ann
Sarah Patterson

3 Mary Carson Patterson b about 1800

Marriage to Abner Perrin ABT 1829 SC (old SC family of
French descent)
Children:
James
William
Sallie
Arthur Lewis
Telemachus Ulysses
Josiah P
Robert Oliver
Abner Mason
Napoleon Patterson
................................

The info below is not correct... James was born
about 1817-1818 in Abbeville and died aft the 1900
census in Coosa Co., AL. That's all of our James'
wives. But Adam was his father. He had a
brother William. (William married Elizabeth
Patterson--his 1st cousin).

James Patterson born Abbevillöe, SC died 1836 -
Montgomery, Alabama
married Mary Knight
Elizabeth Knight
Martha Pope
2 of his sons were Adam and William


About the Coosa Co. censuses. There are at
least 2 sets of Patterson families in Coosa
Co. One set are the ancestors of a former
Alabama governor, John Patterson. Their
ancestry has been traced back to Scotland.
Through oral history Adam and William's ancestors
are supposedly from Ireland. I know it is hard to go back to "old notes"
made years ago, but if you find your notes
about Adam's name being James A., I will be very
interested in where you found his full name.

Thanks again for all your work Susan. Are you related
to any Coosa County families?

In 1810 United States Federal Census > South Carolina > Newberry, Richard Knight and Martha are under 45 and have 5 children at home. Bart Satterwhite and wife are over 45 and have 8 children at home.

In 1820 United States Federal Census > South Carolina > Newberry > Newberry city, Richard Knight has one man born 1795-1802, as well as a man born before 1775 (Richard) and a boy born 1811-1820 and 2 boys 1805-1810. The females are 2 women born 1776-1794, 4 girls born 1811-1820 and 2 girls born 1805-1810. That is Richard and Martha and possibly one married son or daugher along with about 10 children in house. James Wright is also in the district.

Georgia had been kept as Sacred Hunting Land for the Indians by the British, but since they lost the war, they had to turn it over to the newly formed American government which opened it county by county to white settlers. Richard Knight left Newberry and appears in herry Co. GA by 1830 census, probably about 1821 because they had a land lottery that year. In 1830 United States Federal Census > Georgia > Henry, Richard Knight appears as 60 to 70 and Martha is 50 to 60. There is a boy and a girl 10 and under 15, two girls 15 and under 30, so there are only 4 children living in the house. Henry County was created on May 15, 1821 by an act of the General Assembly (Ga. Laws 1821 Extra. Session, p. 3). Dooly, Houston, Monroe, Fayette, and Henry County were created in that order by the Georgia Land Lottery Act of 1821 , which was enacted at a special session of the General Assembly four months after the Creek Indians ceded lands between the Ocmulgee and Flint rivers on Jan. 8, 1821 in the first Treaty of Indian Springs.

Richard's son Enoch Asberry Knight met his future wife Faithie V. Baker in Henry and married there in 5 March 1827. I do not know where they lived because I do not find their ages with the Bakers or with Richard Knight in 1830. They must have gone with another relative to Coweta or Carroll Co. because these counties had opened up one year before the young couple married.

Richard Knight moved to Carroll Co.probably after Martha Patsy Satterwhite Knight had died 11 January 1834 probably in Henry Co. GA. He moved near where his son had been in the newly formed counties of Coweta and Carroll GA which both opened 1826. Richard appears in the 1840 census Carroll County GA and probably lived close to the Coweta/Carroll County line because his descendants speak of Newnan, Coweta Co. GA which was county seat with a court house. Coweta was named for a tribe of Creek Indians, the Cowetas. It was formed from Creek Indian Lands received in a treaty with the Federal government at Indian Springs, GA in Feb, 1825.

1840 United States Federal Census > Georgia > Carroll > District 713
Richard Knight -he is between 70 and 80, had a male 20-30 and 3 women 20-30.Maybe Richard moved into his son's place while his son moved to Talladega, AL.
Joseph C. Baker- he and wife are between 30 and 40 and there are 6 children between 1 and 14.

9. Joanne KNIGHT died July 13, 1857



Our Enoch Asbury Knight appears for sure in 1840 census Talladega, Alabama. he moved there in 1839 with all their seven children which they had born near Newnan, GA, in either Carroll or Coweta Counties. Enoch was a hard worker and was working on a well in September 1842- 3 years after their arrival- when he was overpowered by a cloud of gas and died. There was Faithy- alone with her seven childen. What to do? She moved in 1843 to be near her brother and other family members, including her father in law at Hatchett Creek. There she could get the moral support from her extended family and community Faithy needed.
