68. Henry Machen Jr. born 12-19-1745, Prince William County, Virginia, married
11-16-1772, in Fauguin County, Virginia, Frances Ballinger. Henry died
12-10-1821, Piedmont, Greenville Co., South Carolina, buried: 12-11-1821,
ShadyGroveCem,AndersonCo,South Carolina. Research by Laura Cleveland Edwards &
Elroy Christenson based on DAR Files. He served as a sergeant in Capt. Moses
Wood's company of Horse, Colonel Roe- buck's regiment, SC Militia 1780-81;
Revolutionary War. DAR Lineage Book page 21 #154064. Larry Jordan
Montgomery:Paternal-Paternal 4th Great Grandfather. SC by 1777. Southern Family
Bible Records lists the Henry Machen Bible Record which reflects he and his
wife's birth, marriage & death dates + birth dates of his children which
Compiler uses in spite of conflicting dates by others.
69. Frances Ballinger born 01-09-1756, Virginia, died 12-10-1826, Greenville
County, South Carolina, buried: 12-11-1826, ShadyGroveCem,AndersonCo,South
Carolina. Research by Laura Cleveland Edwards & Elroy Christenson based on DAR
Files. LDS Computer Files. Larry Jordan Montgomery:Paternal-Paternal 4th Great
Grandmother. Southern Bible Records has the Henry Machen Bible Record which
Compiler will go with despite various other Machen Researchers having very
different birth, marriage and death dates for this couple and their children.
Birth, Marriage, and Death Dates listed here are from that Bible Record
Gravestone says:born 06-05-1756 & died 11-13-1826
70. Isaiah Payne Sr. born Circa 1743, North Carolina ?, married (1) Circa 1763,
in North Carolina ?, Nancy Cox, married (2) Ann Williams. Research by Laura
Cleveland Edwards & Elroy Christenson based on DAR Files. Larry Jordan
Montgomery:Paternal-Paternal 4th Great Grandfather. 1st Source above only listed
two daughters:Dorcas & Nancy and lists the name of his wife as Nancy Cox.
Research by Carolyn Machen Adams of Cedar Rapids, Iowa lists him as a Sr. adds 8
more children and lists the name of his wife as Ann Williams. Two wives seems
logical with the age span of the children. Compiler has "guestimated" birth
dates under Nancy Cox for initial data entry.
71. Nancy Cox born Circa 1747, North Carolina ?. Research by Edna Wise
Prickett. Descendants of Henry Machen by Don Tucker. Larry Jordan
Montgomery:Paternal-Paternal 4th Great Grandmother. Research by Carolyn Machen
Adams of Cedar Rapids, Iowa has added eight more children and a different name
for Isaiah Payne's wife. Nancy was probably not the mother of all 10 children.
Further input from both sources will hopefully resolve which children were born
to which wife.
