From: "Nelson Poe" To: Cc: <> Subject: RE: Edmond Poe and Sarah Parker Poe Date: Wednesday, February 17, 2010 7:24 PM I have no proof concerning Solomon and Nancy or Edmond/Edmund. I have visited EC and Tempe's grave. Other things in my attachment were things I was told by my father and some of the Poes in Poe Bend. I have visited graves in Chandler's Springs and Poe/Green Cem and saw on maps Poe Bridge Mountain that run to Chandler's springs.

Just wondering where your info came from regarding Solomon's Wife, Nancy Vann Poe? Family legend on my side says also that Nancy was a daughter of David Vann, Cherokee Chief. I have had correspondence with some Vann relatives that tell me that the Vann's and Poe's had many land dealings, contracts, etc. with each other, but I have no proof. Your info would be most helpful! Also, having you participate in the DNA project would be beneficial not only to you, which could possibly fill in the gaps between known relatives, but helpful to all of us researching the Poe lines. The more participants we have, the better. Each person contributes a piece to a huge puzzle. It is taking time, but we keep adding more and more pieces. There are many of us linked to these emails from William, (ask him how to sign up to the Poe Google Group), although not everyone talks at the same time! We have cemetary records, photos, stories, etc. Stick with William and let him guide you through the maze or should I say aMAZEing Poe legend! He knows more about us than any of us do, I look forward to your contribution! Please scan and email what you can. I am happy to share what info I have also. Solomon and Nancy are my Great Great Grandparents. E.C. Poe and my Great Grandfather Rufus Winston Poe were brothers. I am also a member of the Cherokee Tribe of Northeast Alabama. I look forward to hearing from you!

I have been working with Charly Poe (she is cc'd here) for a long time trying to fill in the gap between Edmond Poe and the early William Poe who married Lydia (by the way, we don't know that his middle initial was E or that he was born in 1711 DNA results so far - see http://www.www.poegen.net/DNA/ do indicate that, at least, Edmond's line was not of the Simon Poe SR (1707-1793) group. Simon's descendants have a distinctive single mutation that helps us identify that line - the other men who were in Essex Co, VA in the early 1700s and who were either brothers or close kin to Simon Poe, do not show the mutation. So far nothing exactly identifies Edmone Poe as a descendant of William Poe /Lydia, he would descend from one of the other men who settled the area. HOWEVER, some indications are that Edmond was close kin to a Stephen Poe/ Mary who was also in Wilkes Co, NC and who moved to Walker/Franklin Co GA before ending up in the same Benton / Calhoun Co, AL where Edmond's descendants ened up. Your participation in the DNA project would be helpful - DNA is hard to pin down and we have even see a couple of cases of "reverse mutation" which should be rare, but does happen - so confirming that you share similar DNA results with Charly's brother could be helpful. Here is some information from my Alabama records page http://www.poegen.net/AL/PoeAlabama.htm NC-25 James Masters and Elizabeth Poe. 17 July 1792; George Hudspeth, bm. Edmund Poe and Sarah Parker. 30 November 1794. James Masters, Bm. See research on this family found on the web: http://www.poegen.net/NC/Studies/parkergeorgeandRebeccafamilies.htm also North Carolina Marriage Bonds, 1741-1868 Edmund Poe Bride: Sarah Parker. Bond Date: 30 Nov 1794 Record #: 01 185 Bondsman: James Masters Bond #: 000146872 This information pertains to the Poe that settled in Habersham Co, GA and then onto Benton / Calhoun (and Talledega) Counties in Alabama . Some records show Poe bured in Green Cemetery . Connected to this family is Edmond/Edmund Poe and Stephen Poe (see Wilkes County , NC and Georgia records) Research is ongoing, but this group appears connected to Surry / Wilkes / Ashe County , North Carolina . Below the notes I have pertinent links for those analyzing these families.

Most charts show Sarah married at 15 not 26. This effects the age presumed for husband Edmond Poe, and who his father could have been. -----Original Message----- From: Nelson Poe Sent: Feb 14, 2010 2:55 PM To: Subject: Edmond Poe and Sarah Parker Poe My Name is Nelson Wayne Poe my father was William Nelson Poe born 1895 to William Madison Poe born 1866 to E C Poe born to Solomon Winston Poe husband of Nancy Vann Poe, Solomon's father was Edmond Poe married to Sarah Parker Poe. I am told Edmond descended from William E Poe born c 1711 and Lydia Poe. I think there must be another father between Edmond and William E Poe but can't locate him. Any suggestions? Will DNA assist me in finding information past Edmond? william E Poe born c 1711 Hotmail: Trusted email with powerful SPAM protection.
