MOC;KSVUX% NO 3 7 107 Barberry Drive Berea, Ohio 44017 September 27, 1982 Mr. Howell Boone Boone Farm Road Mocksville, N. C. Dear Howell, I received your letter of the 15th, and a few weeks earlier a letter from Mrs. Bean inquiring about her connection to John Penry. I was glad to give her the information we gleaned from the various N. C. sources. As I told her, we did not know the names of our Penry ancestors when we started, and therefore copied much information (but probably not all) about the Penrys not in our direct line. So what I have might not be complete, but I did make the connection. Here is what 1 found: For some reason when I listed the children of John Penry from his will ir, the Davie County will records Vol. I Page 116, I left Mary E. Nash off the list on the family tree of the Penry-McMahan,s. The censuses list only one John Penry in 1830. The Rowan County marriage record lists the marriage of John Penry to Susan Smith Dec 13, 1827. (Alater deed gives her name as Susannah). I found no direct connection from John to a father, but in the will above his brother James is named executor. In the archives in Raleigh I found a record of the sale of Thomas Penry's estate in 1824 and 1828. This lists three Jameses - James Sr., James Jr. and James of Samuel. That means John and James could be the sons of either James Sr, or Samuel. The Penrys in Davie Co. said Samuel had a son Thomas born in 1808. The census of 1820 shows only one son for Samuel and that had to be Thomas and therefore John had to be the son of James. It is certain therefore that Mary Nash is the daughter of John Penry who is probably the son of James Penry (1779-1854). It was good to hear from you, and we hope to return to your end of the state some day to try to trace the lines:a little further back. So far we have not gotten any further information from any of the Penrys. If we do come back we will look you up for another enjoyable visit. We treasure the pictures of the Penry cabin you sent before, and want to thank you again. Q�p\\G�C�ah o��e Moes Sincerely, I ,94--t- 28 JUNE 1982 MONDAY 8=58:25 P.M.

Ancestors. I was able to enter my Poones in the first volumes ie - John and Rebecca [Bryan] Boone, their children and any grandchildren known to have been born/lived/died in North Carolina, I hope that we will now be able to add collateral lines. Will you venture to do the Penry line? The first volume has Penry Family listing no (of course James Penry is listed as the spouse of my Hannah Boone), Item 12 of the Instruction Sheet indicates. that documentation may be placed of back of the forms-, however it will not be included in information listed while s so while it is useful as an aide memoire for,your own use, it is a Of effort as far as the actual li sti s a waste ng re concerned, While in Frankfort, Kentucky, I visited the Archives and spent an excitingda K.en-�ucky State looking at microfilm of the Draper Collection from which I extracted (a,ll? J ), on;Boone material. Enclosed is a copy of letter 100 of the 8-th :Volume Series C of the Draper Collection, with H.H,Hel s er's •' about James and Hannah pear t p, tatement Penry and heir giant son Jar�'e's (genes from John [Strongman] Boone?) Note that John is described`• as a br�other of Dan%'0.1_. In the enclosed extract from a Davie County Soil and; Wa+,pr`..

First i 2 t Second of October 1982, For me this was a deeply emotion - charged experience. Admittedly, we rode in a campervan, while Daniel and his companions went on foot. Still, we were as close as one oan travel on paved roads to Daniel's actual route. We started At the Boone Tract at Bear Creek, which is about a mile from Center Church, where James and Hannah [Boone] Penry are buried. The entire route was memorable for me, and even the synthe- tic perfection of the rebuilt (and re-sited) Boonesborough was a thrill. We camped overnight in the sycamore grove along side the river - near/over the original site of the fort. I slept out-of"doors and awoke....the next morn .ng with heavy fog all about... so thief that the sycamores, gathering moisture on leaves and branches, dripped like rain on my sleeping bag. I could imagine myself. one of Daniel's roadcutter8 of 1775 - for a moment at least, I enclose copies of my summary of the journey and map of the route. When you return to the Carolina Piedmont - retracing this route is a mustq for 'it is, I assume, the route that your Susannah EMeMahan.] Peary and her children took on their trek to Ohio. The Helper letter states that there were 13 children born to Fames and Hannah [Boone] Penry -.11 of whom grew to maturity your most current listing shows 8 of the 11. I enclose a copy of a listing by Charles Williams of Davie Pounty, which identi- fies 10 by name. It would be grand if we could `identify all 11. All of whom were born in ROWAN County - if born before 1836, or itis DAVIE county if born 1836 and after. -ThusimHannah CBoone] Penry was born 1779 in ROWAN County and died -1857 in DAVIE County. .The Penry cabins helped by nature and/or man his tumbled downs and the photographs I took may be the gain::reQord of how it looked before the fall.

FIREPLACE: Fireplace was brick and so was entire chimney - it is likely that the bricks arrived at the same time that the floor was changed from dirt to boards. Original chimney might have been fieldstone chinked with clay, with upper portion made of sa lings lashed together and chinked with clay7mud . There was &lways the danger of fire in such a chimney - and without exception such a chimney was on one end of the house Perhaps at the same time a brick chimney was installed, there was a window placed alongside the chimney - for ventilation - otherwise there was just a front and back door facing each other in the corner, near fireplace was a ladder/stairs to the loft - easy for children to scamper up,and down, but a bit steep for adults & old folks there was one window in the loft/attic - opposite the chimney Penry cabin was along side Interstate highway 40 to reach it exit at 601 and take Davie CountSr Road 1345 (Blaise Church Road) to end, and then walk in woods near I--40 right of way fence until you come to Penry cabin - perhaps 250 yards OAYIE CO.

VMST AVENUE Ln:.ON, A'. 0. 29292 July 19, L983 Mr. Howell Boone Boone Farm Road Route 1, Box 365A Mocksville, N.C. 27028 Dear Mr. Boone: Thank you so much for your letter of July 15th and the information about the Boone and Penry families. Several years ago I contacted the senior genealogist in Salisbury about Hannah Boone and he investigated and stated positively that she was the daughter of John Boone and that John Boone was the son of Squire Boone, therefore a brother of Daniel Boone. I also have the Spraker "The Boone Family" book and was unable to verify the statement of the Salisbury genealogist. Therefore, what you tell me is correct. This is very good informationmd I c `a appreciate the two photographs of the gravestones of James Penry and his wife, Hannah (Boone) Penry.

Tradition has it that they America from Londonderry, Ireland. rt records of Londonderry were de - in fire many years ago. rst American ancestor of the local Mof- ly was Hugh Moffitt, who took up a 330 acres of land in what was then Co., now eastern Randolph Co., from rl Granville, grandson of Carteret, 1 of 'd proprietors to whom King Charles 11, 5th and 17th years of his reign had approximately all of N.C. and S.C. I the proprietors gave their grant back to the king. Vicount Carteret kept his, passing same eventually to his grandson, John Earl Granville, who himself was lord president o his majesty's most honorable Privy Council. The grant by George II to Earl Granville took place on 17 Sept. 1744 and the grant b Earl Granville of 330 acres to Hugh Moffitt wa contingent upon a down payment of 10 shil- lings, sterling money, and a yearly rent sum o 13 shillings, 2 pence half, which is at the rat of 3 shillings sterling for every 100 acres, providing that 9 the yearly rent is not paid, I therefore would be effected and the present grant cancelled. This deed was signed by Hugh Moffitt an witnessed by James Watson and William Mof lift, a brother of Hugh. The tract of land surveyed to contain 335 acres on Little Brush Creek, the waters of Deep River. The date o the grant was 2 Oct. 1761. Hugh Moffitt and his brother, Charles, also an immigrant in 1761, m. into the Davis fami ly, they being Quakers. The Moffat clan in the little town of Moggat Scotland, was small and weak and allied itsel with the very powerful Stewart clan. The Mof fatt clan was almost wiped out at one time b the Johnston clan. The little book History Moffat, published in 1860, and belonging one time to some individual in South Africa had been purchased from the Genealogic Publishing Co. of Baltimore, Md. It notes, one point, that the effort of the Johnston cla to burn down a church in which the Moffat cla was having a meeting resulted in the death many. Tradition has it that the father of Hugh an Charles and William Moffat was Robert Moll (who m. Margaret Stewart), who was himse a 1st or 2nd generation resident of Londonde ry, Ireland. f,, no Hugh Moffatt, with at least part of his fami- ly, moved to so-called Northwest Territory in f 1799. He had deeded 222 acres of his land to Isaac Johnson on 14 Sept. 1799. On the same day he deeded 208 acres to Joshua Hadley. y The sum total is 430 acres which may account s forthe fact that the heirs of Hugh Moffatt on 10 Feb. 1811, reimbursed Joshua Hadley for 12 f acres and reimbursed Isaac Johnson to the e extent of $180.78, 75 acres having been lostto the said Johnson, result of boundary disputes. levy Hugh Moffatt had barely gotten to the so- called Northwest Territory, which had become available In 1795 through the "Treaty of d Greenville" signed by 12 Indian tribes and towards which Congress had authorized con - was struction of Zane's Trace, the first road run- ning through Oh., when he d., presumably in f the same year, 1799 in Chillicothe, Oh.

William Lewis Thompson was the son of Joseph Hiram Thompson and Cinthia Suretha Ratts, both residents of the Tyro communityof Davidson Co. Joseph Hiram Thompson's fa- ther, Frederick Thompson (17 June 1774 — 12 July 1840) came from Va. to what was then Rowan Co. and purchased from George Dan- ner 200 acres of land in what turned out to be the Tyro community.

Clara Maie Thompson Moffitt, 1884-1973 Joseph Vestal Moffitt, Sr. Entered Guilford College in the tall of 1899 as did his father, William Henry Moff it, in the class of 1874, as did his sisters, Perle and Rosa May, and his brothers, Ralph and Oscar, but he stayed only 3 months and dropped out because of poor Joseph Vestal Moffitt, Sr., 1883-1948 health. On 1 Jan. 1900 he entered the employ of William E. Holt, proprietor of Wennonah Cotton Mills, with which organization he re- mained for 48 years. On 22 July 1902 Mr. Moffitt, then 18, along with C.A. Hunt, Jr., W.E. Holt, Jr., L.L. Bar- bee, and a Mrs. Mendenhall founded Peerless Mattress Co., to operate in the old Normal School building (in recent years a shoe store just below the South Main branch of Lexington State Bank). The mattress factory later moved to the corner of S. State St. and W. 7th Ave. During all those years Mr. Moffitt continued his 10-12 hour day employment at Wennonah Cotton Mills and managed the affairs of Peer- less Mattress Co. from his father's office in Moffitt Grocery (across from the March Hotel) in the evenings, where he typed his invoices and interviewed salesmen offering mattress tickings and other materials. The mattress fac- tory burned in 1915. The corporation was dis- solved. Mr. Moffitt rebuilt the plant and con- tinued as proprietor until 30 June 1946 when Peerless was reincorporated. Mr. Moffitt was a co-founder of Dacotah Cotton Mills with C.A. Hunt, Jr. and others in 1909. He was instrumental in the reorganiza- tion of that concern in the late 1930s. He was elected Pres. of the Commercial Bank of Lex- ington after the merger of the Bank of Lexing- ton with the Commercial & Savings Bank (E.B. Craven, Pres.) in July, 1932. He got there just in time for the trouble. He served as Pres. of the Commercial Bank of Lexington until the date of his death. During the years of the Great Depression, he arranged the sale of Nokomis (now Philpott Furn.) to Erlanger Mills, the sale of Johnson Silk Mills to Burlington Mills (now Raleigh Road plant), the idle Dacotah Mills to the Moore family and local investors. He was also a director of Perpetual Savings and Loan, Mutual Savings and Loan and Industrial Sav- ings and Loan and Industrial Bank of Lexing- ton. Mr. and Mrs. Moffitt had 3 children: Joseph Vestal Moffitt, Jr. (23 July 1908), Mary Louise M. Leonard (30 Mar. 1913), and Sarah Elizabeth (Betsy) Moffitt Goodson (8 July 1921).

NO is a daughter of John PENRY (1805-1658) m. 13 Dec 1827 to Susan SMITH in Davie Co. NC. John PtNRY's will is recorded in Vol. 19 p. 165 oY the Dave Co. hC records. His will lists children: Diary E. NASH, Pleasant L. PhWRY, william H. PAMY, Joseph M. PiNRY, and James F. PENRY, along wi h granddau. Sarah Jane WAUCLR. All of these children except Diary E. PMRY NASH are listed: with the family of John PMi Y on he 1650 Davle Uo. census. A daughter, Emily is also listed on the 1650 census , and must be the mother of the granddaughter. This proves that my husband is a descendant of John BOONE and Rebeoea BRYAN'$' through their daughter Hannah BOONS (1779-1857) and James PENNY (1779-1654)• I guess this makes my husband your fourth,fifth, or sixth cousin. I have ordered the BOONB bookie from the Davie Co. Public -Library. Is there any material available for the parents of gebecca BRfANT m. .John BOUNET I know that you are collecting information about the descendants of John BOULj and Hebacca RUYAN'Lp so I am sending you the information I have concerning my husband's descent from James P11THY and Hannah BOONE.

VX��, �j Q � �v 107 Barberry Drive Berea, Ohio 44017 September 27, 1982 Mr. Howell Boone Boone Farm Road Mocksville, N. C. Dear Howell., I received your letter of the 15th, and a few weeks earlier a letter from Mrs. Bean inquiring about her connection to John Penry. I was glad to give her the information we gleaned from the various N. C. sources. As I told her, we did not know the names of our Penry ancestors when we started, and therefore copied much information (but probably not all) about the Penrys not in our direct line. So what I have might not be complete, but I did make the connection. Here is what I found: For some reason when I listed the children of John Penry from his will in the Davie County will records Vol. I Page 116, I left Mary E. Nash off the list on the family tree of the Penry-McMahan!s. The censuses list only one John Penry in 1830. The Rowan County marriage record lists the marriage of John Penry to Susan Smith Dec 13, 1827. (Alater deed gives her name as Susannah). I found no direct connecuion from John to a father, but in the will above his brother James is named executor. In the archives in Raleigh I found. a record of the sale of Thomas Penry's estate in 1824 and 1828. This lists three Jameses - James Sr., James Jr. and James of Samuel. That means John and James could be the sons of either James Sr. or Samuel. The Penrys in Davie Go. said Samuel had a sore Thomas horn in 1.808. The census of 1820 shows only one son for Samuel and that had to be 'I'homas and therefore John had to be the son of James. It is certain therefore that Mary Nash is the daughter of John Penry who is probably the son of James Penry (1779-1854). It was good to hear from you, and we hope to return to your end of the state some day to try to trace the lines;a little further back. So far we have not gotten any further information from any of the Penrys. If we do come back we will look you up for another enjoyable visit. We treasure the pictures of the Penry cabin you sent before, and want to thank you again. OAVIE Co. PUBLIC LIBRARY Sincerely., MOCKSVILtEL M J(TJE 1982 M�I�DAY 8i58:25 P . l:.
