| 3559 | History of Marathon County Wisconsin and Representative Citizens (1913) written by Louis Marchetti, pages 880-881 JOSEPH BURGER, one of the best known residents of the town of Wausau, who has resided on his present well improved farm of 120 acres, situated five miles northeast of Wausau, for the past thirty-seven years, was born near Detroit, Mich., in 1851, and is the eldest son of Mathias and Anna (Wirtz) Burger. Mathias Burger was born in Germany and from there came to the United States when aged twenty years, locating at Detroit, Mich., where he followed the shoemaking trade. On September 29, 1858 he moved to the town of Wien, Marathon county, Wis., and followed farming until 1898, when he removed to Marathon City, where he lived for four years, his death occurring there at the age of eighty-two years, his son George purchasing his farm. He was married to Anna Wirtz, who was also born in Germany and was twelve years old when she accompanied her parents to the United States, living first at Parkersburg, Va., and afterward coming to Detroit, Mich., where she was married. Her death took place in 1909, when she had reached her seventy-ninth year. She was the wise, careful and beloved mother of a family of eight children, namely: Joseph; Jacob, living in Marathon county; Mrs. John Kane; Mrs. Anna Hershfeld, living at La Crosse, Wis.; George, residing at Edgar; Mrs. D. P. King, living at Edgar; Peter, living at Chattanooga, Tenn., and Anton, living at Tomahawk, Wis. Joseph Burger attended the district schools in his native section and afterward, for ten terms, taught school and made a very good record as a teacher. In 1875 he bought his farm, on which he moved in the spring of 1876, and has continued to live here. He has sixty acres of his land cleared, has made many improvements in the way of building, and carries on general farming and stock raising, displaying excellent judgment in his operations and consequently meeting with very satisfactory results. Mr. Burger was married to Miss Paulina Mathie, a daughter of Joseph and Magdalen Mathie. Joseph Mathie came to New York from Wiirtemberg, Germany, and for nine years engaged there in cabinet-making. In 1861 he moved to Marathon county and lived on his farm in the town of Wausau until his death at the age of eighty-one years. He married Magdalena Heller, who died here when aged sixty-eight years and they had six children: Joseph, who died when aged thirty-seven years; Louise, who lives on the old home place; Charles, who died at the age of thirty-two years; Paulina, who is the wife of Mr. Burger; and two children who died in infancy. The following children have been born to Mr. and Mrs. Burger: Hubert, formerly town clerk, married Selma Prahl, and they have had the following children: James; Laura, who married Walter Manecke; and Lawrence, Isabel and Esther. The entire family belongs to the Catholic church. In politics Mr. Burger is an independent voter but he is looked upon as so reliable a citizen that he has been kept continuously in public office ever since he became a resident of the town. | Burger, Joseph (I96663)

| 3560 | Sep 2018: After a long spell away from researching the Waldrip-op-ep families, and with many thanks to past and current researchers. Notably for me; Jan Dawson, Howard Waldrop and Joyce Moore to name just a few, all of which provided me much insight and through their sharing of Waldrop documents. I am not trying to re-invent the wheel, and am using as many of the deeds and other records uncovered and shared over the years. Of course if new info is found, I plan on sharing the info; as I always have. Virginia: 1744 --- CAROLINE CO., VA. Caroline County Order Book 1740-1746, Part 2, page 55. Page 267, 13 Apr 1744. - James Waldrope acknowledges his deed of lease and release of land indented to Michael Waldrope. Note: Deed of lease and release (definition): Special form of grant called a release could be used to convey a future interest to someone who already had a current interest. [The modern version is called a quitclaim.] This resulted in a very popular form of conveyance called a lease and release. Two agreements were required. First, a bargain and sale contract was executed by the seller to convey a lease on the land. The seller then separately executed a release to grant to the buyer (who was now his tenant) a reversion of the seller's interest. The effect was to transfer title to the buyer, since he now owned both the current and future interests in the land. Based on the 1744 deed, I actually look at James Waldrop to likely be older than Michael Waldrop, likely a father or brother. 1748 --- CAROLINE CO., VA. Order Book, p 131, 10 Mar 1748/9. John Hammon's deed indented to James Inge was proved by Joseph Meacham, Ambrose Hay, and Michl Waldrop 1749 --- CAROLINE CO., VA. Order Book 1746-1784. Part 2, page 30. Order book page 155, 9 Jun 1749 Michl Waldrop and Sarah, his wife, acknowledge deed indented to James Foster. Note: The linking of Michael Waldrop (and wife Sarah) to be the same Michael Waldrop listed in North Carolina is based on finding no further info on Michael Waldrop after 1749 in Caroline County, Virginia; but finding a Michael Waldrop listed in Orange County, North Carolina. --- I am using this a baseline. Also used as a baseline to back up Michael Senior's age is the assumption that he was a young man when first found in the 1744 records, a quite possible recently married. The circa 1724 birth year coincides with son Michael Waldrop Juniors proposed age. Note: Caroline County, Virginia was created in 1727 from Essex, King and Queen, and King William counties. There are some indications of a Waldrop presence in King William County, Virginia that date back to the 1750's. However court records were destroyed, leaving very little to work with. I did look through the 1704 Quit rent rolls for all these Virginia counties; with no Waldrops (or variations) listed. North Carolina: 1757 Michael Waldrop is located on New Hope Creek in Orange County, North Carolina. He was listed in several large land transactions in this county. He appears in Orange County, North Carolina through at least 1763. 1761-1763 Michael is mentioned in court records as Michael Waldrop Senior. Michael Waldrop Junior is not mentioned in these records, most likely not yet owning land. This indicates to me he was still quite young, possible in the 15-16 year old range, placing year of birth to be circa 1745. Land/Court transactions: 1757 --- ORANGE CO., NC. Abstract. 16 May 1757.

[Notes says see Granville Deeds & Surveys 486 dated 5 Feb 1761.] South Carolina: In 1766, what is believed to be our Waldrip family appeared in the Craven county, South Carolina area land records. After looking through the available SC documents, a summary of key land records for the Michael Waldrop Senior family. --- Significance of the word Michael Waldrop Senior and Michael Waldrop Junior: Michael Waldrop Junior was not a land owner until 1766, partly because of the family transition from North Carolina to South Carolina and early on in North Carolina due to being under age. Michael Waldrop Junior was likely born circa 1745 based on owning land in 1766-1768. Also assuming he was named after Michael Waldrop Senior, he likely was also a first born son, meaning his father was likely about 21 years older then him. This places Michael Waldrop Senior's age at circa 1724. Based on the land records mentioned above, I'll use this as a baseline for my research. Location of the earliest known Michael Waldrop Senior in Carolina land Entries: The Enoree River stretches across two present day counties, Newberry County (Enoree River) and Greenville County (North Enoree River). Although deeds are mentioned in Craven County, the actual land appears to be originally situated between Berkeley County and Colleton County. This entire area was listed as the 96th district in 1769, which happens to be where Newberry, Laurens, Spartanburgh, and Greenville Counties are are all located. The Enoree river is mentioned as to where much of this land was located, and also for me a starting point for research. I believe since Michael Waldrop Junior 1st received land in 1768, most of the land entries are that of Michael Waldrop Senior between 1768-1784. ********* 1766 --- SC.

| 3561 | Virginia: 1744 --- CAROLINE CO., VA. Caroline County Order Book 1740-1746, Part 2, page 55. Page 267, 13 Apr 1744. - James Waldrope acknowledges his deed of lease and release of land indented to Michael Waldrope. Note: Deed of lease and release: Special form of grant called a release could be used to convey a future interest to someone who already had a current interest. [The modern version is called a quitclaim.] This resulted in a very popular form of conveyance called a lease and release. Two agreements were required. First, a bargain and sale contract was executed by the seller to convey a lease on the land. The seller then separately executed a release to grant to the buyer (who was now his tenant) a reversion of the seller's interest. The effect was to transfer title to the buyer, since he now owned both the current and future interests in the land. Based on the 1744 deed, I actually look at James Waldrop to likely be older than Michael Waldrop, as in these type of deed, James Waldrop is releasing his interest in the land to Michael Waldrop. Likely a father or brother. I have listed him as a slightly older brother, since he mimics land purchases later in South Carolina for roughly the same amount of time.

| 3562 | Family tradition: Our own family tradition passed down from generation to generation claims our Waldrip roots to be from Scotland. The known marriages of my branch of the Waldrop family are to both Scottish and English families (Graham and Warren). Another family tradition of our Waldrop family is that some of our Waldrop's in South Carolina married to Native American Indians. Some possibilities for our Waldrop family based on What is believed to be our ancestors, James and Michael Waldrop. Possibilities: 1672 --- YORK CO., VA.Tithe List.Michael Waldrop In 1682, the headright for transporting Michael Waldrop was finally surrendered for land in New Kent County, VA. (This does not mean that Michael Waldrop was in New Kent Co.; Merely that the headright owner was.)It appears the transporter was Col Wm. Claiborne, Jr., who gave or sold it to his son William, who gave or sold it to Thomas Claiborne, who gave or sold it to his son Thomas Claiborne, Jr.The document, which clearly states that headrights were claimed for eleven persons, one being Michael Waldrop, reads as follows: (From NellNugent's "Cavaliers & Pioneers" Volume II, p. 236, Patent Book #7.)20 Apr 1682, William Claiborne, (Claibourne), son of Col. Wm. Clayborne Jr., deceased, Thomas Claiborne, son & heir apparent of Mr. Thomas Claiborne, 545 acres, New Kent Co., VA., 20 Apr 1682 (p. 154).

| 3568 | A deposition made 7 November, 1666 gives the age of Thomas as 77 years. This would have place his year of birth at circa 1590. Another sourcehashim born in 1599. THE HOLBROOK FAMILY THOMAS HOLBROOK [#358 & #382], b. abt. 1589, d. Weymouth, MA beforeMarch10, 1677, m. Glastonbury, Somersetshire, England Sept. 12, 1616JANEPOWYS. Thomas Holbrook was an early and respected resident of Weymouth. Heandhis family arrived there in 1635, and he was a Selectman there in1641,'45, '46, '52, and '54. He became a freeman in May, 1645. Thomaswas oneof the grantees of the town of Rehoboth in 1643 but forfeitedhis sharein 1645 because he did not settle there. In 1649 he wasappointed amember of a commission to lay out a highway from Weymouthto Dorchester.Ten acres were granted to him in the First Division andthirty acres inthe Second Division, Dec. 14, 1663.[1] Thomas Holbrook, aged 77 years or thereabouts, deposed that he cametoNew England with Mr. Hull's company in 1635, and that they cameashore atDorchester June 7, 1635; that they went to Dorchester and theCompanywent to a place now called Weymouth; and that after remainingatDorchester about a fortnight, he went with his family to the nowWeymouthand built a house there (sworn to in court Nov. 2, 1666).[2]Asubsequently discovered record verifies this information. The recordis apassenger list dated "Waymouth ye 20th of 1635" and refers toWeymouth,England. Among the 106 passengers are Thomas Holbrook, 34, ofBroadway,Jane Holbrook, 34, his wife, and children John, 11, Thomas,10, Anne, 5,and Elizabeth, 1. These two documents certainly refer tothe same man,yet there is an age discrepancy between them. By oneaccount, Thomaswould have been born about 1589, while the other putshis birth around1600. While both could be inaccurate, the passengerlist is more likelyincorrect in regard to the ages. The son JohnHolbrook, listed as 11years old in 1635, was made a freeman in 1640,and the minimum age forfreemanship was 21. John's gravestone providesthe best proof of the ageerror, giving his death date and age - Nov.23, 1699, age 82. Thisinformation is also important, as we'll see, inlocating the Holbrook'sin England. In Weymouth Thomas lived next door to his sister Rebecca and herhusbandClement Weaver. The Weaver's were in Weymouth by June 2, 1640whenClement was fined for drunkeness.[3/17:89] Thomas and Clement wereinpartnership in many land and other business dealings.[3/17:88] The search for Thomas' place of origin has been helped with thepassengerlist reference to Broadway, which is in Somersetshire. NearbyBroadway isthe town of Glastonbury, where a Thomas Holbrook married onSept. 12,1616 to Jane Powys according to the records of the Church ofSt. John theBaptist. The baptism of the couple's son John is alsorecorded in thesame church on April 6, 1618. The names and date ofJohn's baptism matchup quite well with the data on the Weymouth, MAfamily, and it can bestated with a high degree of certainty that thisis the family of ourancestor. The surname of Powys is probably derivedfrom the town ofPowys. Thomas made his will Dec. 31, 1668, in which were mentioned hiswifeJane, his sons John, William, and Thomas, and daughters, AnneReynolds,Elizabeth Hatch, and Jane Drake, and his grand children JohnHolbrook,Peter Holbrook, and William Holbrook. He stated that hisgrandson PeterHolbrook had served him and his wife in their old agefor about 8 years,for which he was to have his dwelling house inWeymouth with the orchardand arable land. This will he confirmed Dec.31, 1673, and it was provedApril 24, 1677. Inventory of the estate wastaken March 10, 1677.[1/268] See the section on overseas ancestors for Thomas' family. Thomaswasfollowed to Weymouth by his sister Rebecca, born about 1575, andherhusband, Clement Weaver. John Holbrook, who is believed to havebeen inDorchester, MA before 1626, is thought to the the brotherofThomas.[3:17/85] REF: [1] History of Weymouth - George Walter Chamberlain, 1923 [2] Suffolk Court Files, Microfilm reel #4, Vol. 8, file 815, page 38 [3] Passengers of the Mary and John 1630 - The Mary and John Society, numerous volumes | Holbrook, Thomas (I48244)

| 3570 | A February 2007 DNA test has placed our Warrens back to the Poynton, Cheshire County, England Warren family. We match DNA with the Maryland Humphrey Warren family. We do not match DNA with the Rapphannock County, Virginia Warren family, whom we previously thought we were directly related to. Hugh Warren - 1729 is listed on the Frederick County, Virginia tax listings for 1759, probably after turning 21. Preliminary work by Holland Warren and message board traffic from Norma Kirchhofer place Hugh Warren and wife Margaret in Frederick County, VA in the1750's. [Great job to you both]. Hopefully on my next trip to SLC for my own satisfaction, I'll ensure our Warren branch has some paper records to back up this new info. I still need to verify Norma's Genforum message with followup research in Salt Lake City. This makes sense to me; based on my research about 15 years ago when I tried to tie Hugh Warren (ca 1725) back to the Humphrey Warren branch unsuccesfully.

The land was originally located on the west side of the Pacelet river, Craven County, South Carolina. The land was sold to a Thomas Warren; documented on 16 February, 1787. Hugh Warren's wife, Sarah agreed to the Sale. This is the only mention of his wife that has been uncovered to date. It is unknown the relationship to Thomas Warren to whom Hugh Warren sold the land to. It was once thought this might be Thomas Hackley Warren; but this is now in question, since there is no direct relationship to the Hackley Warren family through DNA testing. https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/3:1:3Q9M-CSLV-PSD3-8?i=288&cat=284315 (South Carolina) Royal land grants, v. 32-33 1773-1774 15 March 1773 - 200 Acres - North side of Pacolet River, bounding South Weston said river North on land "the owner unknown", the other sides on vacant land.

Greenville County, South Carolina: Hugh Warren Sr., to John Malin, written 13 September 1794, recorded 29 April 1795. This land was from previous land obtained from John Collins to Hugh Warren Sr. on 8 March 1787. 205 acres of land located on both sides of the Tygar River. The Kentucky Warrens became acquainted with a wealthy land owner, Nathaniel Owens. He owned some 8,000 acres in northern Green County and built a Georgian brick home and called it Lashfield. It was located 10 miles north of Greensburg. The Warren families moved on and near the 8,000 acres and farmed the land. A notable story about the Owens family should be told. Nathaniel had a beautiful young daughter. She was courted by many young and eligible men, including one man who would be president. Abe Lincoln lived in a nearby settlement, and apparently made trips to see Miss Owens. During one dinner party, Lincoln noticed a small, dead mouse in the pudding. He did not wish for his hostess to be embarrassed. He carefully removed the mouse from the serving dish and ate what was on his plate. UP COUNTRY OF SOUTH CAROLINA The areas between the Broad River and Saluda River at that time in 1775 were under the command of Col. Thomas Fletchall, who would later become a staunch Loyalist to Britain. He lived on the lower Fair Forest River, about six miles from present Union, South Carolina. The people below the upper portions were not as favorable to the American cause and from these people came many of the tories who would side and fight with the British in the coming war. One asks why were the people in the upper portions of the State more favorable to the cause of freedom. In "The History of Spartanburg County", Dr. Landrum states:"...the extreme up-country of South Carolina, was settled by emigrants who advanced from north to south and in front of the eastern settlers. These settlements did not begin until after the ceding of said territory by the Cherokee Indians under Governor Glen .... As far back as 1736, settlements from the seacoast had progressed westward only about eighty or ninety miles. In 1755 the population of the territory afterwards formed into the county of Spartanburg, including Colonel Clarke the first settler of the Pacolet, did not consist of more than eight or ten Scotch-Irish families from Pennsylvania....who settled on the forks of the Tygers. Soon however, emigration began to pour infrom Pennsylvania, Maryland and Virginia, and other colonies, as well as from the old countries, and the country began to be rapidly be settled up.....Many of these settlers of the up-country were of English extraction and dissenters from the Established Church of the mother country. These were mostly immigrants from Virginia." So at the beginning of the Revolution, the two areas of South Carolina; the one having settled from over the mountains to the North and the other from the coast, had not really met or commingled. This explains why the people of the upper regions of Carolina were of a different mold and more willing to take up the American cause. | Warren, Hugh (I52785)

| 3583 | A son of Japheth and grandson of Noah. His name appears among the family heads from whom the initial national groups were dispersed about the earth following the Flood.— Ge 10:1, 2, 5; 1Ch 1:5. Father: Japheth Mother: Adataneses Misc. Notes Magog: From whom descended the Parthians, Bactrians, Amazons, etc.; Partholan, the first planter of Ireland, about three hundred years after the Flood; and also the rest of the colonies that planted there, viz., the Nemedians, who planted Ireland, Anno Mundi three thousand and forty-six, or three hundred and eighteen years after the birth of Abraham, and two thousand one hundred and fifty-three years before Christ. The Nemedians continued in Ireland for two hundred and seventeen years; within which time a colony of theirs went into the northern parts of Scotland, under the conduct of their leader Briottan Maol, from whom Britain takes its name, and not from "Brutus," as some persons believed. From Magog were also descended the Belgarian, Belgian, Firbolgian or Firvolgian colony tghat succeeded the Nemedians, Anno Mundi, three thousand two hundred and sixty-six, and who first erected Ireland into a Monarchy. [According to some writers, the Fomorians invaded Ireland next after the Nemedians.] This Belgarian of Firvolgian colony continued in Ireland for thirty-six years, under nine of their Kings; when they were supplanted by the Tuatha-de-Danans (which means, according to some authorities, "the people of the god Dan," whom they adored), who possessed Ireland for one hundred and ninety-seven years, during the reigns of nine of their kings; and who werwe then conquered by the Gaelic, Milesian, or Scotic Nation (the three names by which the Irish people were known), Anno Mundi three thousand five hundred. This Milesian or Scotic Irish Nation possessed and enjoyed the Kingdom of Ireland for two thousand eight hundred and eighty-five years, under one hundred and eighty-three Monarchs; until their submission to King Henry the Second of England, Anno Domini one thousand one hundred and eighty-six. Part II of Irish Pedigrees, or The origin and stem of the Irish nation, by John O'Hart, published 1892, pages 44-55 Children: Baoth Magog, Hebrew , Greek [ ma'gog ], is the second of the seven sons of Japheth mentioned in the Table of Nations in Genesis 10. It may represent Hebrew for "from Gog", though this is far from certain. Josephus identified the offspring of Magog as the Scythians, a name used in antiquity for peoples north of the Black Sea.[1] According to him, the Greeks called Scythia Magogia (Ant., bk. I, 6). Isidore of Seville, writing some centuries later, adds that he is also considered ancestor of the Goths, but notes that this is "because of the similarity of the last syllable" (Etymologiae, IX, 89). Johannes Magnus (1488– 1544) stated that Magog's sons were Sven and Gethar, who became the ancestors of the Swedes and the Goths.[2] Queen Christina of Sweden reckoned herself as number 249 in a list of kings going back to Magog. Daniel Juslenius (1676– 1752) derived the roots of the Finns from Magog, whose descendants he said migrated to Finland. It has also been variously conjectured that Magog's offspring were the progenitors of the Slavic peoples known to history. According to several mediaeval Irish chronicles, most notably the Auraicept na n-Éces and Lebor Gabála Érenn, the Irish race are a composite including descendants of Japheth's son Magog from "Scythia". Baath (Boath), Jobhath, and Fathochta are the three sons of Magog. Partholón, Nemed, Iobath, and Fenius Farsa are among Magog's descendants. Magog was also supposed to have had a grandson called Heber, whose offspring spread throughout the Mediterranean. There is also a mediaeval Hungarian legend that says the Huns, as well as the Magyars, are descended from twin brothers named Hunor and Magor respectively, who lived by the sea of Azov in the years after the flood, and took wives from the Alans. The version of this legend in the 14th century Chronicon Pictum equates this Magor with Magog, son of Japheth. | Magog (I50899)

| 3584 | A Texas County, Missouri genealogical society book which included family biographies lists James Martin as the father of George Martin. According to the family biography; George Martin died in 1861. Another undocumented source has his death as 27 Sep 1860. Mary Martin paid back taxes for 1861 in a documented 1864 release of land deed; which supports the 27 September 1860 death date. His wife Mary filed and was granted letters of adminstration in Henderson County, Texas in May of 1868. George first bought land in Henderson County, Texas in 1857; although he was known to have been in Texas by 1853. 1858-1860 land records lists him the owner 320 acres of land, with original owner as Reubin Jones and sometimes listed as Ben Jones.
