22001 I1143  Strickland  Hardy "Devil"  Abt 1783  9 Mar 1872  Richard Chapman emailed, in February 2012, that Hardy Strickland was born in Guilford County, North Carolina

Many years earlier, Marianne Matkin shared the following research, along with the excerpt from a letter written by Hardy's son, Madison:

In the 1840 Jackson County, GA census, page 37, we find Hardy Strickland with males one 20/30 and one 50/60; females one 60/70. Also same page Madison Strickland males one under 5, one 20/30 and females one 20/30.

In the 1850 Jackson County, GA census page 44, we find Hardy Strickland, 67, farmer worth $5,000 born North Carolina with the John Hambrick family

In the 1860 Jackson County GA census, Jefferson Post Office, we find Hardy Strickland, age 77, born N.C., farmer worth about $16,000, Josaphen age 7 and Elizabeth Defur age 25.

The 1870 Jackson Co, GA census page 382, shows Hardy Strickland age 87 worth $1,200 born North Carolina. He is in the family of Jacob Strickland age 60.

According to Marianne, Hardy's son Madison wrote the following about his father, nicknamed "Devil," in a letter dated 25 February 1871: "Father has not been able to walk for some two weeks from a violent pain in one of his legs. His curseing apparatus appears to be in fine running order...he has a good appetite but it seems that his food instead of going to support his earthly tabernacle is convirted into Dams, God Dams, Hellfire and other little simple phrases of a similar nature."

The following note was posted to the STRICKLAND-L@rootsweb.com in June 2000:

I have absolute (as it can be) proof that Hardy and Priscilla are buried in Maysville, GA. The cemetery is on a hill about 125 feet off Deadwyler Rd and 1.5 miles from the intersection of Highway 52 and Deadwyler, on the left. It is in a pasture. I was just there, made pictures, will have them developed tomorrow. The cemetery is in very bad shape, most stones are on the ground but Priscilla, relict of Hardy Strickland, Hardy , d. 9 Mar 1872 in the 91 or 97th year of his life. (I have looked at the census of 1850,60,70 and consistent age is given and he would have in fact been only 89 years old if the census is right) His tombstone is still standing. Madison b. 25 Sept 1812 d. 12 Sept 1895 (Hardy's son), Madison's wife Harriett 24 Aug 1811 d. 17 Jan 1895 and his son Daniel Webster, also the Josie the dau. of Hardy and his third wife, Martha Defoor whom he married on 3 Nov 1850 in Jackson Co., GA On Josie's tombstone, which is on the ground it says, Josie Strickland b. (appears as this should be d.) 1863 10 years. Thanks Clare (Email to STRICKLAND-L@rootsweb.com, June 2000, from tiafind@aol.com)

His second wife was said to be Elizabeth KING.

Trudy Cox also shows as a fourth wife as Mrs. Patsy Day.

The descendants of Henry and Mary (Hickman) Strickland are based on the following six trees posted on the World Connect Project at RootsWeb:

It appears that Mary MAY have been too old to be the mother of the younger children, assuming everyone's estimated date of birth is accurate. If possible, a will or probate records should be located to verify these children.

An email from Guy Strickland to STRICKLAND-L@rootsweb.com on April 26, 2001 shows two additional children of Henry and Mary Hickman Strickland:

The following deeds were entered into by some of the children of Henry and Mary Hickman Strickland:

Nash County Deed Book 5, page 251: Samuel BRYANT of Jackson Co, Ga., to Orsburn STRICKLAND of Nash Co., North Carolina. Dated 29 May 1810. 100 acres south of Tar River on Spring Branch, adj. Bryant and Arthur WILLIAMS. Wit: Gideon STRICKLAND, Matthew CARTER.

Wit: Aaron JOHNSON & Henry WILLIAMS.

Nash County, North Carolina was formed from a part of Edgecombe County in 1777. Edgecombe County, created in 1741, as originally part of Bertie County, North Carolina. STRICKLAND SCENE Vol. 1 No. 1 Winter 1980, p 7>

22006 I65  Strickland  Henry  Abt 1766  6 Feb 1817  In the notes of Tony Pickett, he cites "Ancestors and Descendants of Robert Easley, Sr,., and Elizabeth Earle Elkins of St. Helena Parish, Louisiana" by Austin Beverly Smith, et al (1993). Page 6 indicates that Henry Strickland donated the first land to build a church in St. Helena Parish, now called the New Zion Baptist Church. The eight children of Henry Strickland and Ruth Thompson were listed as Hardy Strickland, Lt. Ancil B. Strickland, Cade Drew Strickland, Sr, Thomas C. Strickland, Elizabeth Strickland, James Robert Strickland, Nancy Strickland, and Willis H. Strickland. The book further noted that when Henry Strickland married Ruth Thompson, Daughter of Alexander Thompson (RWS) in 1787, whe was disowned by her father. Apparently he eventually accepted the marriage, as he deeded Henry Strickland land in 1802.

According to the STRICKLAND SCENE Vol 7, No 3, pp 45-46, the following deed was located on microfilm at the Georgia Department of Archives & History.

ELBERT COUNTY GA DEED BOOK N, p 5:

This indenture made the twenty first day of June one Thousand Eight Hundred and Two, and in the twenty sixth year of the Independence of the United States of America Between Alexander Thompson Senr. of the State of Georgia and County of Elbert of the one part, and HENRY STRICKLAND of the County of Franklin and state aforesaid of the other part, Witnesseth that the Said Thompson for and in consideration of the sum of three Hundred and Fifty dollars to him in had paid to the Said Thompson by the Said Strickland on or before the Sealing and delivering of these presents the recept he doth hereby acknowledge.

The following query was posted (by mwise@prodigy.net) to the Strickland-L@rootsweb.com: "In the probate records of Madison Co, GA 1816-1841 Thompson C. Strickland and Cade D. Strickland were administering the estate of A.B. Strickland (in another place Ansel B. Strickland) from 1814-1824 James R. or P. Strickland bought property from the estate in 1814 (from) H. Strickland, Isaac Strickland, Willis H. Strickland. Who is this? And how does he related to Solomon Strickland of Madison Co?" Rocky Strickland (RockyIII@aol.com) replied that his undocumented records show "that Ancil B. Strickland, Thompson C. Strickland, and Cade D. Strickland were brothers and three of eight children of Henry Strickland and Ruth Thompson. They were grandsons the Solomon Strickland who was born 1735 in Nash County, North Carolina, and died 1818 in Madison County, Georgia."

His FindAGrave memorial page (ID 98340873) states notes his probably burial place was the Lystra Primative Baptist Church Cemetery in Comer, Madison Co, GA, as his parents were charter members and his mother was buried at this church two yeas before Henry's death.

It further shows the St. Helena Parish, Louisiana census from 1820 as follows:

1820 census, St Helena,? Louisiana
Widow Stricklin 0-1-0-1-0-0 2-1-2-0-1 - Elizabeth Gurley
One female over 45; b. by 1775
One male 18-25; b. 1795-1802
Two females 16-25; b. 1795-1804
One male 10-15; b. 1805-1810
One female 10-15; b. 1805-1810
Two females under 10; b. 1810-1820

According to researcher Kenneth Landry Schaefer, the "Widow Stricklin" listed on the 1820 census was not Ruth, but Elizabeth Gurley of Johnson Co., NC, daughter of Robert Gurley and widow of a Jeremiah Strickland, as shown by probate papers. It's likely then that Ruth was living with one of her children or other relative in 1820:

Mariana Matkin wrote that "Of Jacob's children, Jacob Jr, Hardy, Solomon and Lucretia moved to Georgia. In the book, GONE TO GEORGIA, there is a many page run-down of the Strickland family. Solomon and brother Jacob, Jr. were both Revolutionary soldiers. The booklet THE STRICKLAND FAMILY OF GEORGIA GENEALOGY by Fitzhugh and Lee (1939) gives dates of births, deaths, marriages, etc."

22019 I1360  Strickland  Jacob  Between 1741 and 1744  Apr 1804  Marianna Matkin of Mt. Pleasant writes: "Solomon Strickland's brother was Jacob Strickland, Jr. Solomon's son Hardy Strickland, Sr. married Jacob Strickland Jr.'s daughter, Pricilla Ann Strickland--first cousins marrying. Jacob Strickland Jr. born 1783 in North Carolina married 1765 in Guilford County Priscilla Taylor (some say Young) and in 1769 he filed for land in Guilford County, N.C. were he was living in 1790. I have a copy of the land grant. He moved to Wilkes County, GA and settled there with his brothers.

Jacob Strickland, Jr - Notes:
It appears that this marriage is based on a preponderance of evidence only. There is a Christopher Taylor that signed as one of the Witnesses to Jacob Strickland, Sr. Will.
On 5/28/2000 Jane Strickland Shelton < UGA1mom @aol.com writes to Strickland List "The Priscilla Taylor Young name for wife of Jacob, Jr. has been going around for years. Arthur Taylor's Will leaves daughters with a Jacob Strickland to take care of. But it does not say Priscilla Strickland or indicate that she was married to a Jacob. The Taylors and the Stricklands lived near each other not only in NC but also in Isle Of Wight, VA. It is reasonable that she may have married Jacob, but I just would like to find a more definitive record. It may be impossible. Bruce Howard, genealogist and Pace descendent thinks Jacob may have married a Pace. I need to do some more research to come to decide if I could agree with that.

22024 I16936  Strickland  James H. Edward "Ed"  Abt 1905  Yes, date unknown  ASSUMED this is James H. E(dward) Strickland, and that he was called Ed. I made this assumption because Carl Evan's research shows that Ney Carter and his only brother Ed married two sisters, Nora Humble and Elizabeth Humble.

James H.E. and Ney Carter appear to be the only two sons in the family, therefore it seems that James must have been called Ed, unless Carl Evan's research was incorrect.

However, even though the census appears to have been taked on July 5, 1860, and John Monroe was born in June 1860, the instructions for the 1860 census indicate that: "The name of every person whose usual place of abode on the 1st day of June, 1860, was in this family," insert the name of every free person in each family, of every age, including the names of those temporarily absent on a journey, visit, or for the purposes of education, as well as those that were at home on that day. The name of any member of a family who may have died since the 1st day of June is to be entered and the person described as if living, but THE NAME OF ANY PERSON BORN SINCE THE FIRST DAY OF JUNE IS TO BE OMITTED. The names are to be written beginning with the father and mother, or, if either or both be dead, begin with some other ostensible head of the family, to be followed, as far as practicable, with the name of the oldest child residing at home, then the next oldest, and so on to the youngest, then the other inmates, lodgers, and boarders, laborers, domestics, and servants."

He is listed, however, with his mother and older brothers on the 1870 Federal Census of Clarke County, Georgia.

In the Jackson Co, Georgia 1860 census, page 64 or 221 we find Madison Strickland 47 farmer worth $19,000, Harriet age 48, Mary age 19, George E. Dedwley age 24 farm laborer worth $5,000, Emily I Dedwley 15 all born Georgia. There are some errors here: it shows Madison and Harriet married within the year, but it was George E. Deadwyler and Mary who were married on 22 Feb 1860. Also, Emily I was not a Deadwyler but a Strickland.

The 1870 Jackson Co, Georgia census page 402 gives us Madison Strickland age 55 farmer worth $9,500 born Georgia, wife Harriet age 56, born Georgia with a black cook.

In the 1880 Jackson County, GA census page 643, Millers District we find Madison Strickland age 67, farming born Georgia, parents born North Carolina. Wife Harriett age 68 keeping house born Georgia. Father born London, England (A big surprise, no wonder I haven't been able to find him in the Revolution), mother born Georgia."

She then married James Allen and moved to Habersham County Georgia where she died leaving 5 Gilbert children named: Bill, Jim, Betsy, John, and Nancy, and three Allen children namely Thomps, Bob, and Henry."

22065 I1160  Strickland  Mathew  Between 1627 and 1637  Between 1696 and 1699  In an article entitled "TWO MATTHEW STRICKLANDS", written by L.C. Strickland and published in STRICKLAND SCENE Vol 3, No 2, Second Quarter 1982, the author notes:

"Much of the previously published information regarding the Strickland family is not supported by sufficient evidence. Principally that of the Worth S. Ray Research Collection, 975 DAR, Vol 31, page 16, which states that "Matthew Strickland, Sr. who married Elizabeth Loreen, of Liverpool, England and came to Maryland in 1679 on the HERRON. August 4, 1699 his land was divided between his sons."

The land division between the sons of Mathew Strickland, referred to above, occured in Isle of Wight County, Virginia, and is published by John Bennett Boddie in his book, SEVENTEENTH CENTURY ISLE OF WIGHT COUNTY, VIRGINIA, and has the following paragraph taken from the County Deed Book I: "Mathew Strickland and William Strickland, sons of Mathew Strickland, deceased, have made a division of their lands. Mathew gives his brother, Samuel Strickland, 150 acres and his brother, John Strickland, 150 acres and to his brothers, William and Joseph, 150 acres apiece, 4 August 1699. Barbaby Mackinney, Thomas Marks."

Secondly, upon examination of the document mentioned in the first paragraph of this article from the Worth S. Ray Collection, it will be observed that one person came on the Heron in the year 1678, that six persons came on the Heron in the year of 1679, and two persons, namely a Matthew Strickland and Elizabeth Loreen, came on the GLOBE in the year of 1680. Also note that this warrant granted to John Tanner, Merchant, four hundred and fifty acres of land to him for the importation of the named persons in the document. Consequently, these persons came under bond, or at the expense of someone else; namely, John Tanner.

In a second document, which may be found in the Calvert County, Maryland, Testamentary Proceedings, Vol 16, pages 30 and 31, the following is recorded: Thomas Greenfield came into Court November 1691, Calvert County, Maryland, and requested Letters of Administration of goods and possessions of Mathew Strickland, late of Calvert County, deceased, who died intestate. Whereupon this Thomas Greenfield was directed to give an inventory accounting within three months.

At this point, I introduce evidence which I believe supports the theory that another Mathew Strickland, at an earlier date, 1678, was already on the scene in the Isle of Wight County, Virginia, involved in receiving a land grant of 902 acres of land for the transportation of 18 persons; date of this document 26 September 1678, recorded in Patent Book No. 6, page 653. Then again, this same Mathew Strickland received 1,803 acres of land for the transportation of 36 persons, Book No. 7, page 20, dated 20 April 1680. I must acknowledge at this point that we have not determined how and precisely the date this Mathew Strickland came to this land. Here is a question I pose at this time, would a person place himself in bond to travel to this land during the Colonial Period when he had the means to pay for the transportation of 54 persons?

To summarize, based upon date and documentation currently available, one would have to conclude that the Matthew Strickland of Calvert County, Maryland, whose possessions were inventoried by Thomas Greenfield, as directed by the November 1691 Court, died prior to this date. Also, I would point out that these are all of the records on the Strickland Family that are located in the Hall Records, Annapolis, Maryland, according to the authorities there, and that these documents do not reveal any heirs of of this Matthew Strickland. It cannot be concluded that he did or did not have heirs. There is no documentation to indicate that he did or did not have wife or children. Many records were destroyed by fire in Calvert County, in 1882. It is my opinion that the Matthew Strickland of Calvert County, Maryland and the Mathew Strickland of Isle of Wight County, Virginia were different men. It is reported in GONE TO GEORGIA by William C. Stewart that Mathew Strickland Sr, Isle of Wight County, Virginia, died 1696, which would have been five years after the death of the Maryland Matthew Strickland.

22088 I5333  Strickland  Noah  Abt 1801  1864  In a Query posted in the STRICKLAND SCENE newsletter (Vol. 3, No 2, Second Quarter 1982), "Lily Carter Thurman states that Noah Strickland was born in North Carolina ca 1801. Tradition says that he left with hog-drovers when he was sixteen and came to Mississippi." Her query was as to the identity of his parents.

The family is listed in Kathy Casagranda's SABINE PARISH THE 1850 CENSUS WITH ADDED FAMILY INFORMATION as follows:

Noah 49 M Farmer North Carolina
Mary 41 F Georgia
Nancy 24 F Mississippi
David 19 M Mississippi
Redmon 15 M Mississippi
John 11 M Louisiana
James 8 M Louisiana
Will 8 M Louisiana
Martha 5 F Louisiana
Elizabeth 5 F Louisiana
Nina/[Una] 3 F Louisiana
Mathew 8/12 M Louisiana

Casagranda writes that "Noah Stephenson Strickland was born in Nash County, NC to Henry Strickland and RUTH THOMPSON.....Noah married MARY ELIZABETH CARTER daughter of WILLIAM CARTER and MARY E (Cotton) STRICKLAND."

This does not appear to be correct, as he was born in North Carolina, and the other children of Henry and Ruth Thompson Strickland were born in Georgia.

Noah Strickland's family is listed in Helen Gomer Schluter's 1860 CENSUS OF SABINE COUNTY, TEXAS WITH CIVIL WAR RECORDS as:

Noah 59 M NC Farmer $675
Mary (Carter) 57 F Ga
Nancy 34 F Miss
John H 21 M LA
James W 17 M LA
William L 17 M La
Martha J 15 F LA
Elizabeth J 15 F LA
Anny C (Unice?) 13 F LA
Mathew (Noah) 10 M LA

In SABINE COUNTY HISTORICAL SKETCHES AND GENEALOGICAL RECORDS, it is noted that Noah and his family came to Sabine County, Texas in 1860 and paid state and county taxes in 1861. The book added that the Noah Strickland served in the Civil War, but took the measles after being mustered out and died in Mississippi. (White and Toole, p 59).

The book, OLD TIMERS OF SABINE COUNTY, TEXAS by Virgie Speights (S. Malone Printers, San Augustine, Texas c 1983), says "Noah and "Polly" Strickland had four daughters, Nancy, Martha, Jane and Sarah, and three sons Bill, John and Matt" (p 54). The census lists 6 sons, where as Old Timers only lists 3. Perhaps three sons died as young men, or moved away from home too early for the younger generation to remember. Also, could Jane and Sarah be the middle names of the daughters actually listed on the census? Later in OLD TIMERS it is stated that "(Noah and Polly Strickland's) six children were John Strickland (Dee's father), Bill Strickland, Matt, Jane, Martha and Unice."

Leatha Betts says she has Noah Stephenson Strickland b.c. 1801- 1803 (1850 census states he was 49, born in North Carolina) married c. 1825, to Mary Elizabeth Carter b. 1807 Jackson Co. Georgia (1850 Census) and mentioned in Jackson Co. Ga. Deed book D as receiving household items for estate of Solomon Strickland. Her research indicates that the Noah that settled in the Sabine River area is the son of Noah Strickland, Sr. b.c. 1759 Nash Co. N. Car. and Elizabeth Dew of Nash Co. North Carolina, son of Henry Strickland b.c. 1735 Nash Co. N. Car. (d. 1796, Madison Co. Ga.,He left will in Georgia, listed in Ga. Pioneers, Vol. 6....)

In the will he leaves to his son Noah (listed last in the will ,the youngest?): That I give to my son Noah Strickland a certain piece of land beginning at a corner Hickory in Thomas Carter's line and along Carter's line to the river, and down said river to the old spring, then along William Dew Strickland's line to the beginning; also 1 tract of land on both sides of the road containing 80 acres joining Thomas Carter and Roland Williams' lines; and 300 acres of land lying on both sides of Turkey Creek joining Hardy Stricklands and Benjamin Rice's line; also 3 Negroes named Willie, Zaney, and Kinchen; and 1 feather bed and furniture, Noah appointed William Buntin and Henry Adkins as Executors. This was however challenged apparently by Noah's wife (sic-s/b daughter) Mary and son in Law Henry Atkinson from Minute Books Nash CO By Tim Rackley (from excerpts) August Court 1813 - #740 A paper writing purporting to be the last Will and Testament of Noah Strickland was offered for probate by Wiliam Buntin and Henry Atkins Jr, the Executors therein named, and the Same being opposed by Elisabeth Strickland, Henry Atkinson & Mary his wife, Bolling Strickland, and by Edward, Noah, & William Dew Strickland, which three last are infants under Twenty one years of age to whom Elisabeth Strickland is appointed Guardian pro hac vice. It is ordered that a jury be impaneled to try whether the paper writing do Contain the last will & Testament of the Said Noah Strickland. Nash Co Minutes Vol . VII, p 62) 1816, NASH CO NC Land Division of Noah Strickland, Feb. term 1816: Heirs: Elizabeth Strickland Henry Atkinson and wife Boling Strickland Edward Strickland Noah Strickland II William D. Strickland (Nash Co Kin p 58 (Nash Co Will Book 1 p 277)

From "Early Records of Nash Co, NC 1777-1859" page 248:

STRICKLAND, NOAH inventory by Admrs., November 18, 1813, included 20 Negroes. The widow, Elizabeth Strickland, was given a year's allowance. Sale held September 9, 1813, with Elizabeth Strickland principal buyer. Her dower lands were directed to be laid off, August 1813. A sale of Noah Strickland property was held by Henry Atkinson, admr. January 11, 1820.

STRICKLAND, NOAH JR. inventory and sale by Bolen Strickland, admr., December 13, 1820.

MAY 11, 1824, NASH CO NC Bolen Strickland, admn for estate of Noah Strickland, Jr. deceased, bill of sale to Edward Strickland May 11, 1824 (Kinfolk 112)

From these last 3 citings it appears that Noah and Elizabeth's son , Noah II may have died after the land division in 1816 but before December of 1820. Leatha Betts notes that the "Jr." could still be refering to the above inventory...or someone could have transcribed Sr. incorrectly....since the date was one month prior to the settlement outright for Elizabeth. Or this could refer to yet another Noah. Judy noted she was leaning toward this fellow as Bolen in Extr and Edward is buying (from Noah Sr will the lands adjoin) Sorry this is so long, I am still learning what is meaningful and what is not. I am still working on the thought that Noah's wife Elizabeth was dau of Edward Moore. Noah's Daughter Mary named a child Alsey Moore Atkinson and Noah's son William Dew named a daughter Sally Moore Strickland. The name game is a good hint but the Moore name could just be from any generation. Elizabeth was named as Moore in her father Edward Moore's 1783 will and was called Elizabeth Strickland in the estate settlement in 1789.

One further observation. I believe the Bolen Strickland that married Martha Trignith 12 March 1835 was not the son of Noah and Elizabeth. He and Martha are on in the 1850 census with a slew of children ages 13 on down and an older Trigneth/Trigler female. His age is given at 34 making him born years after Noah's will. Any thoughts, help, corrections or gentle disagreement welcome

Judy Moore Welch who is still trying to be a Strickland and still believing that Mark Stricklands dau married the son of Edward Moore.

22089 I16407  Strickland  Noah  28 Jan 1821  1870  An email from Cindy Ranucci to STRICKLAND-L@rootsweb.com on April 26, 2001 related to this family reads:

According to information given to me by my great aunt, Noah, son of Richard Benjamin Strickland Sr. (son of Henry Strickland and Mary Hickman) went to California after first landing in Tishomingo Co, MS with two of his brothers (Richard Benjamin Jr. and Benjamin Perry). My information states he died in California about 1870; however, the birthdate I have for this Noah is about 1820.

22097 I6729  Strickland  Priscilla Ann  Abt 1777  31 Oct 1841  Many researchers show her as being born in North Carolina. Richard Chapman instead has her place of birth as Franklin County, Georgia

Marianna Matkin of Mt. Pleasant writes: "Solomon Strickland's brother was Jacob Strickland, Jr. Solomon's son Hardy Strickland, Sr. married Jacob Strickland Jr.'s daughter, Pricilla Ann Strickland--first cousins marrying. Jacob Strickland Jr. born 1783 in North Carolina married 1765 in Guilford County Priscilla Taylor (some say Young) and in 1769 he filed for land in Guilford County, N.C. were he was living in 1790. I have a copy of the land grant. He moved to Wilkes County, GA and settled there with his brothers. This Jacob died in Franklin County, GA and his will April 4/October 1804 (I have a copy of this) listed his children: Faith b 12 Aug 1767 married ??? Meyers; Tamar b 13 Oct 1768 m William Gilbert; Isaac b 11 July 1769 d 1851 m 1799 Mary Hargroves; Jacob b 6 May 1772 m Mary Sanders and it is believed 2nd Clarissa Sanders; Mary b 17 Oct 1773 m John Gilbert, a Revolutionary Soldier and after his death Mary married James Allen of Habersham; John and William Gilbert were brothers..marrying sisters was done quite often in those days...travel was by horse or buggy and you didn't meet many eligible ladies. Hardy b 16 Jan 1775 m Susan Pryon; Priscilla m her cousin "Devil" Hardy Strickland and lived in Madison County; Selah or Celia b 11 July 1779 m Robert Young; Henry b 24 December 1781 m Elizabeth Wilkens; Wilson b 14 Jan 1783 m Polly Connelly; Elizabeth b 6 Nov 1785 m John Eubanks; Nancy b 22 Dec 1787 m James Royal or Ryley; Sarah m Berry Vaugha

CAUTION, Not all researchers show Hardy "Devil" Strickland's wife as Priscilla Strickland. Some list her as Priscilla Taylor, and others as Priscilla Young. In his book, PACE OUR COLONIAL ANCESTORS, Bruce Howard argues that she was actually Priscilla Pace, daughter of Richard and Elizabeth Pace and a sister to Solomon Strickland's wife, Amy Pace. (p. 146).
