[Bolling5] Randolph Co. and Montgomery Co., NC Bollings

[Mike Moffitt]

That sounds like the right location on the deed.  You're probably correct about Jesse being connected to my family -- I just haven't seen evidence of it yet.

I'm not aware of any of my Bolling line being tested.  I know Ken Poole was trying to chase down the Shubal Bolen group that went to GA (Hall Co.?) at one time.  The other males in the family seem to have disappeared.  I'm pretty sure that John Jr. stayed in Montgomery Co., NC for a while.  My Sarah refers to her brother David Bolling in husband John Reed's 1832 Rev. War Pension application, but doesn't know whether he is alive or dead at that point.  I have info that says he died in NC back around 1805.  I don't know what happened to Willoughby and Mitchel or whether that's even their correct names.

My Reed/Read family, that married into my Bollings, was most definitely from the Deep River section of Randolph Co. dating back to 1760 and living near the (Enoch) Spinks and Bird families.  My Sarah Bolling and John Reed did have a child named Jesse, but that was a fairly common name back in those days.  My Bolling/Bolens appear to have been primarily in Montgomery/Old Anson Co., NC.

>> I looked up your family in the 1850....and was thinking perhaps you are very kin to the Larkin son of Jesse Bolling of Randolph Co. NC....which somehow Mike Moffit also connects to....but I don't know if his person has tested to Group 5 DNA.     Anyway, the Floyds- neighbors - listed North Carolina as their place of birth.   Perhaps since the county was also named Floyd you could google the history of the county and find out where they came from in NC....and if it was Montgomery or Randolph then you would be that Larkin or one of his relatives...and they had a family history of several of their siblings moving to Indianna.  Mark Bolin was one mentioned in that letter....and I don't remembe the other's names.

>> Here is about all I have on my Bolins.  Larkin is in Sullivan Co. Tn. 1830 with wife Sarah, 3 children;  1840 he is in White Tn., 1850 in Greenville In and in 1860 in Jackson Washington In.  By 1870 he is back in Greenville (Floyd Co.) In.  While searching I surmised his father was John Bolin in Tn. and had a general agreement from some postings.

>> Wife Sarah is not listed in 1870.  Children were James bn abt. 1877, served and died in the Civil War; Elizabeth bn 1830, married Noah Floyd, had a son named James and one named Larkin and died abt. 1920; and finally my great-great grandmother, Susan/Susannah, bn. 1835 and had daughter Nancy (Nannie) bn 1857.  Susan married widower John Wyman in 1877 and became stepmother to his 6 children.  John was a civil war vet and in her pension request she said she had never married before and they had no children.  Her stepson Grant cared for her and terminated her death in 1930 when she died.
>> Her daughter Nancy married Moses Scott Bell September 16, 1877.  He was a widower with twins.  Nancy and Moses had three sons, Walter Clarence, John Arthur and Charles Edward.  Nancy died in 1882 of penumonia and Moses remarried.  The oldest of her three sons was less than three and the youngest, my grandfather, about 6 months old when she died. The three boys never knew her so there no family stories. I doubt there was any contact between the two families after her death. DNA testing is difficult since it was the maternal line for my grandfather and he is died in 1964.
