John Hix (b. 1675) m. Denias - Sussex Co. VA line

 John Hix (b. 1685) m. Denias - Surry/Sussex Co. VA line

[This is the Sussex County, Virginia line of Hicks. Sussex was once part of Surry Co. formed in 1652. Originally it was Charles City Co/James City Co. Albemarle Parish, an Episcopal parish, was established in 1738 "from those parts of Lawne's Creek and Southwark parishes that lay southwest of Blackwater River" by the Church of England. Albemarle Parish should not be confused with Albemarle County.

This line is surprisingly not related to the Captain Robert or John Hicks/Rebecca Rives lines [only through Rose family].

                                                   Generation 1

JOHN HICKS[1] (b. abt. 1675 -d. 1732) m. DENIAS (ISODENIAS) CHRISTIANNA [?] by c.1700.
Notes:
[Item] John Hicks married Denias Christiana. When he made his will in 1721, he had four children and a grandson, William so he was probably born c. 1678 or earlier. They were probably married by early 1700s. He died 11 years after he made his will, which was proved in 1732. His grandson William was born before his son William died in 1711.

[Item] John wife's name is spelled also "Isodenias" and Christianna" like the nearby Fort Christianna which was occupied around 1714. It seems like she may have been and Indian princess and the name was given. I find no trace of her as her name is probably misspelled.

[Item] Sussex Co. wasn't formed until 1754 out of land from Surry and Brunswick counties.

[Item] In 1724 a John Hicks obtained land next to James Massengill and wife, Judith. James made his will in 1776. (seven sons). James Jr.'s son George b. 1740, sponsored by Joseph Hicks. Joseph and Ann Hicks son, John born Aug. 29, 1742 Daniel Massengill was godfather. James Massengall Jr. was Godfather to their son William Hicks, b. Dec. 22, 1744.]

[Item]  Will of John Hicks of Lawnes Creek Parish, dated the 12th day of March, 1721, and proved on November 15, 1732.
To Son, Thomas Hicks, one shilling. To grandson, William Hicks, son of William Hicks, one shilling.  To son, Joseph Hicks, my plantation after his mother's death if no issue to my daughter, Christiana. To wife, Denias Christiana Hicks, remainder of my estate and make executrix. Witnesses: William Rose, James Mersingale (Massengall, also Massengill)  and Thomas Buryber (Barber?). Will was presented in Court on the 15th day of November, 1732, by Denias Christiana Hicks, the executrix named therein. [Deeds, etc. Book 1730-1738, page 247, Surry County, Virginia]

[Item] His father, John made will in 1721 but left nothing to William only William's son (also William)- one schilling. This indicates that William [2] m. Elizabeth was dead in 1721. William [2] had his estate proved on May 17, 1711 by Elizabeth and witnessed by James Stanton, John Brown and John Blewer. Bk. 6 pg. 59.]

[Item] The Massegall family was close to the Hicks family and James Mersingale [sic] witnessed John's will. The common spelling is Massingale but it's also Marsingell, Marsyngall, Mersyngaill, Marsyngale, Massyngall, Marshingale, Marsingill, Marsingall, Marshingale, and many other variants. Here's some info about that family from: The ancestors and descendants of Matthew Massingale Page 10; Bernice Carver Thompson, ‎Shelia Katheryn Studdard - 2001.
"It was at Whitby that Daniel Marsingell, the first of the family in America, “being now bound to sea”, made his will upon January 18, 1645.  It is likely that he followed the sea for seven or eight years before settling in America, and likely on the same ship with Abraham Collyer (Collier), seaman who married his sister, Marie. Fifth child of Gilbert II and Phoebe was born February 27, 1624 and Daniel was the first Massengale to migrate to America.  His will is dated January 18, 1645 and was approved June 27, 1653.  Daniel set sail for America at the age of 18.  He arrived in Charles City County, Virginia in 1653 at the age of 29.  He died at 76 years old around 1700.
Christopher Marsyngaile: Eldest son of Gilbert I and Elizabeth, married Anne, she died February 24, 1639.  They had two children; Anthony and Elizabeth.  Anthony was living in year 1599, was buried in 1617.  Elizabeth married John Hicks on May 22, 1621."
It is the son of Daniel Massengale, his father came over to Virginia from England and arrived in Charles City county in 1653 (age 29), who was a witness to John Hicks will. Is it a coincidence that his father's aunt Elizabeth married John Hicks in 1621?

                                     Children of John and Denias were:

   WILLIAM[2] (b. abt. 1685 d. 1711) m. Elizabeth bef. 1711, Surry Co. Virginia.
Notes: William [2] had his estate proved on May 17, 1711 by Elizabeth and witnessed by James Stanton, John Brown and John Blewer. Bk. 6 pg. 59.]
[Item 1] William had probably only one son, William, given on shilling in the 1721 Will of his father John.
       WILLIAM [3]  and Mary[3] (see below)

   JOSEPH [2] (JOHN[1]) and ANN
Notes:  Joseph Hicks will, August 20 1785, probated January 18, 1787, of Sussex County, Virginia named a son John Hicks, giving him the 100 acres he now lives on, joining John Bridges on the north side of Mirey Branch; son William Hicks 120 acres on the south side of Mirey Branch including the land where James Freeman lately lived and Robert Ellison's land. Son John Hicks the 135 acres I live on. Rest of the estate to my wife for life  my children viz John Hicks, William Hicks, Mary Hicks and Sally Hicks. The executors were wife and sons Joseph Hicks John Hicks, and William Hicks. . .[Francis Clark of Louisa County, Virginia]

Notes:
[Item] In 1742 Christian Hicks (assume daug. John [1] Hicks, unmarried (around 30 years old) was a witness birth of Henry Sawry [Boddie].

   THOMAS[2] (JOHN[1])
Notes:
I assume Thomas was last born because of the 1721 Will (proved in 1732) and he was born c. 1710/12.

[Item 1] William had probably only one son, William, given on shilling in the 1721 Will of his father John.

    After his brother William died in 1711, Joseph was next in line for his father's estate and he certain was born in the early 1700s. Since his eldest was born in 1760 (Boddie] it makes me wonder if some of the children are not from another line.

Thomas Hicks b March 13/1723/24 in Brunswick Co., Va, died April 6, 1775 in Duplin County, NC, married Thankful Weeks (daughter of Benjamin Weeks). Thomas is supposed to be the son of Daniel Hicks of Virginia. There are several Thomas Hicks in the Duplin County area at the same time and I am not sure (or need some type of proof ) that my Thomas is the son of Daniel Hicks. Any suggestions??

--------------
I am still looking for the father of William and Diana Maria Hicks, born 1799 & 1805 in N. C. (Sampson/Duplin/Onslow Counties). "Family Search" lists father of Diana Maria as "Thomas Hicks". Does any one have the children of Thomas Hicks and Elizabeth Brewer married in Wake County, N.C. in 1782 died unknown date. Thomas is listed as the son of Captain Thomas Hicks and Elizabeth Williams born in Virginia and married 1754 in N.C. and died 1797in Duplin County, N.C. Am also looking for children of "Thomas Hicks and Thankful Weeks" for the same time period.

--------------

Will of Thomas Hicks, 1775, Duplin NC;

Wife(not named), Rebecca,James, Leonard Borden, Trankful(Thankful), Ann, Laura, Betty, Sarah.

Will of Thankful Hicks, 1785, Duplin NC;

Tillie, Ann Miller, Rebecca Mills, Thankful, Mary, James, Shadrack, Frederick.

A Question, you said: "Thomas is listed as the son of Captain Thomas Hicks and Elizabeth Williams born in Virginia and married 1754 in N.C."
Do you mean Captain Thomas was born in Va, or the son Thomas was born in Va? I may have some more clues.
---------------
Seems to me that there may be a contradiction between the Thomas Hicks data in "Revolutionary War Records, Duplin and Sampson Counties, North Carolina, Contributions to Genealogy" by Virginia L. Bizzell and Oscar M. Bizzell (1997), pp. 124-125" and the 1785 will of Thankful (Weeks?) Hicks, which mentions Rebecca Mills (is this Rebecca a dau. of Thankful Hicks, and did she marry James Mills?). You mentioned Thankful's will and another will in an earlier post - (1) will of Thomas Hicks, 1775, Duplin NC: wife (not named), Rebecca, James, Leonard Borden, Trankful(Thankful), Ann, Laura, Betty, Sarah; and (2) will of Thankful Hicks, 1785, Duplin NC: Tillie, Ann Miller, Rebecca Mills, Thankful, Mary, James, Shadrack, Frederick. The names of the children (if any) of Thomas Hicks and Thankful Hicks (husband and wife?) can't be determined from these will excerpts, which don't state the relationships to the legator - is the text of the complete wills available somewhere? Perhaps the!
same Thomas Hicks married both Thankful Weeks and Elizabeth Williams; or, some data applicable to two different people named Thomas Hicks were mixed together in the 1997 writing by the Bizzells, or Thankful Hicks' husband was not Thomas Hicks. Right now I would not trust the Bizzell version in toto until it could be confirmed by enough original records to eliminate all this uncertainty.

Other notes:
1. The Bizzell writing says Daniel Hicks, son of Thomas Hicks and Elizabeth Williams, mar. 1st Serena Williams and 2nd Mary Ann E. K. Hairr, "the widow Croom". From other (unproven) info I have gotten from various sources, (a) Daniel Hicks mar. Serena Williams, the dau. of Louis Williams and unk. wife; Serena's 2 siblings were Bonetta, wife of Lot Battle (Newbern, NC), and James, who married Lot Battle's sister (ref. http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Meadows/3150); and (b) an unk. Hicks (Daniel?) mar. Mary Hare, the widow of Richard Croom (ref. Wheeler's Reminescenses and Memoirs of NC, intro., p. 63-65), possibly the Richard Croom who d. 21 Jun 1805 Wayne Co. NC (as reported in Raleigh Register of 8 Jul 1805). Perhaps these marriages involve the same Daniel Hicks, but the sources didn't identify his father.

2. Abstracts of the 6 Dec 1750 will of Abraham Kibble (who mar. Edith, the widow of the older Daniel/David Hicks) seem to be inconsistent. Abraham's will in Onslow Co. NC was proved 2 Apr 1751 and mentions sons James, dau. Luse (Lucy?), step-sons Daniel and Thomas Hix (another ref. says sons James and Thomas, dau. Leuse, step-son Daniel Hix), wife Edith and s-i-l Joseph Williams execs., test. Thomas Jenkins, Jos. Loyd, Wm. Loyd. I don't have the complete text of the will, so I'm not sure whether Abraham Kibble had a son Thomas Kibble or a step-son Thomas Hicks (the ref. above was NC Hist. and Gen. Reg., v. I, p. 332)

3. One thing I noticed, which by itself won't solve this problem, is that Elizabeth Williams (the dau. of Nathaniel Williams), had several brothers who were military officers. One could guess that she would also marry an officer, so perhaps military service could be used as a discriminator here to make sure we were always talking about the correct Thomas Hicks. Note that Larry's previous post mentioned the grave marker of (Capt.) Thomas Hicks b. 3 Mar 1725 d. 2 Apr 1797 (in the Routledge cem. in Duplin Co. NC), and the Bizzells state that this Thomas Hicks' wife was Elizabeth Williams. By the way, it seems strange (but not impossible) that his grave marker says that this Thomas was a captain (of militia?) in 1754 but a musician in the Rev. War. I'm not saying that the government marker giving this information is incorrect, but it would seem more likely that Thomas would be an officer during the revolution as he had been some years earlier. If Thomas the musician or his!
heirs applied for a Rev. War pension or bounty land, perhaps the associated records at NARA would give his age so we could possibly assure ourselves of his identity. Also note that since Capt. Thomas Hicks' grave marker says he d. 1797, he is prob. not the Thomas Hicks who left a will dated 1775, Duplin NC, as noted above.

------------------

Larry,

Capt. Thomas Hicks born April 13, 1725 in Brunswick County, Virginia - died 1776 in Duplin County, North Carolina.
Married to Elizabeth Williams (born March 30, 1740 in Hanover County, Virginia - died April 22, 1798 in Duplin County, North Carolina) Married in Wake County, North Carolina in 1782 (as per "Family Search.Org.".

The son of Capt. Thomas and Elizabeth Hicks would be "Thomas Hicks" born 1757 in Onslow County, North Carolina died Unknown and married 1782 in Wake County, North Carolina to Elizabeth Brewer who was born abt. 1763 in Wake County, North Carolina and died unknown possibly in Duplin County.

I have the father of Capt. Thomas Hicks as "Daniel Hicks" born abt. 1688 in Brunswick County, Virginia and his mother as "Edith Unknown" born abt. 1693 died unknown.

The information you provided appears to be for Thomas Hicks and Thankful Weeks. The children I am looking for are Diana Maria Hicks born 1799 and William Hicks born 1805. I think your information would thus eliminate this "Thomas and Thankful" as being the parents of my ancestors.

I appreciate any information you could provide in this line as I continue the search.

  Christianna Gowen, [William3, Thomas2, Mihil1], regarded as a daughter of William Gowen and Sarah Gowen, was born about 1751, according to her tombstone.  She was born in 1846 in Granville County, North Carolina, according to the DAR membership application of Mary Hamilton Haile, a descendant who lived in Savannah, Georgia in 1952.  Sarah Foster Kelley, researcher of Nashville, Tennessee, regards Christianna Gowen as a namesake of Christianna Hicks of Surry County, Virginia.  She was a daughter of John Hicks and Isodenias Christian Hicks.  John Hicks named his wife and children in his will written March 25, 1721.  Jack Harold Goins states that “Christiannah Gowen” was born in 1762 in Culpepper County, Virginia [without providing any documentation.]
 
Christianna Gowen was married about 1771, perhaps in Fincastle County [later Montgomery County,] Virginia to John Rains who was born in 1743.  Jack Harold Goins shows his date of birth as 1753.  Sarah Foster Kelley states that they were married in 1773 in Culpepper County, Virginia which adjoins Stafford County, the ancestral home of the Gowen family.  Edward Hickman was shown as a resident of Culpepper County in 1762, according to Jack Harold Goins who states that William Gowen of Davidson County, Tennessee went to the Edward Hickman Fort where he died after being ambushed by Indians in 1790.

Jonathan H. Rains, son of John Rains, stated to Lyman Draper, the historian that John Rains was born in Culpepper County, Virginia [then Orange County.]  Joy Quimby Stearns, Rains researcher of Mt. Olive, Alabama suggests that John Rains "came down the valley of Virginia from Pennsylvania."

John Rains was one of the "long hunters" in Kentucky and Tennessee as early as 1769, according to "Calendar of the Tennessee & Kings Mountain Papers of the Draper Collection of Manuscripts," Volume III
