[Bolling5] Fw: BOWLING--Do these connect to us??

Mike,
You may be right. I don’t think anyone has been able to link John Bolling Sr of Little River conclusively to Group 6, and he certainly can’t be a son to Benjamin Boling and Talitha Hancock of Group 6, but they could be related somehow. Another nearby family was Charles Boling of Randolph Co., NC. A Y-DNA testee & descendant of this Charles Boling doesn’t match Group 5 or Group 6, so that is puzzling.

By the way, Mitchell Bolling who is listed in a 1779 tax list in Randolph, NC with a John Bolling is obviously an older Mitchell than the one I cited who went to west TN and Marshall, MS. Maybe an uncle??

There was also a Mitchel Bolen in Halifax Co., VA in 1782 in a personal property tax list, along with a John Bolin and Sarah Sneed (Sarah was thought to be a Bolling). Probably a different Mitchell than the one in Randolph, NC in 1779, I would think.

Hello: 

My name is Mike Moffitt and I just joined the list recently.

I believe there is a good chance that this Mitchell Boling is a son or close relative of my 7th generation grandfather John Bolin/Bolling, Sr. of the Little River, Montgomery Co., NC (b. abt 1730, prob. VA; d. abt. 1790, NC).  Ken Poole has done a lot of research on this Montgomery/Randolph Co., NC family. 
My line goes through John's daughter Sarah, b. abt 1767, Montgomery Co., NC who married John Reed, b. 1764 Deep River, Randolph Co., NC.  Sarah Bolin and John Reed also ended up in TN in the 1830's -- Rutherford Co. and finally Bedford Co.  
Mitchell's estimated birth date seems to be about right.  My Sarah also had a brother named David who was a preacher and may have gone to TN.

  All,
  It was Mitchell Boling of Group 6 who went to the Memphis, TN area for a few years before 1840 and then to Marshall, MS. I don’t know all his children, but he and wife Nancy had at least 10. Here’s what I have in my notes about this guy – I also don’t know if you can connect any of the folks you mention to this family. Son Marion was supposedly born near Memphis. His descendant tested for DNA.:
  ---
  Mitchel Bolin was on Capt. Harvey's district 1815 tax list of Randolph County, NC as one white poll on 200 acres Little River. [informant: Ora Callcott, 3016 Royalton, Greensboro, NC 27406 in 1992...related to Benjamin, grandson of Benj & Sarah Hancock Boling through their son Benjamin who md. P.Callicoat.]
  ---
  Mitchell Bollin along with William and John Bolling (Bolin) were on a 1779 tax list of Randolph Co, NC.   (693)   Mitchell Boling along with Wm. and John were on a 1779 tax list (of Jacob Shepard) of Randolph Co NC. All three would have to be 21 years old or older so all born by 1758 and therefore he could not be the son of Benjamin Bolling born 1754   [informant also Ora Callicott.]
  ---
  Mitchell Bolling was listed in the Hawkins Co., TN 1836 tax list in Civil District 11. Isaac Boling, who is supposed to be Mitchell's brother, was also listed there.  According to Barbara Pendergrast, Mitchell Boling sold land in Hawkins Co. in Sept. 1837. His land adjoined land once owned by Isaac Boling. Mitchell & family moved to western Tennessee and then to Marshall, MS by 1840. Isaac was married to Mary Coltrane and moved to Owen Co., IN.

  Group 7 Melba, Joyce and Charlene wonder if the AL-MS-TN Bowling folks Charlene found below are known to any of the Group 5 researchers.  Without doing further research, we do not connect them with Group 7.

  Nothing that I see here, or have on my files, show a connection here.  Did you pass this by Doris or Hazael, as I know they had Bowlings in that section of north Alabama (Franklin Co., I believe), and Lawrence Co. (where George W. Bowling married 1st time) is adjacent to Franklin County.
