Pam Heaton, 2001, a descendant of Willie Mae Worsham (daughter
of William H. Worsham page 289, 1.5.4.1.4.2.1B.1), has a letter given to her by
her father-in-law that was written by a Sallie A. Worsham from Republican Grove, VA dated Mar 29, 1905.
She is Sallie Ann Worsham (page 289, 1.5.4.1.4.2.1B.4) the dau of William Coleman Worsham.
The following is a copy of the letter from Sallie Worsham exactly as she wrote
it:
"Republican Grove, Virginia
March 29, 1905
Mr. John Worsham
Richmond, Virginia
Dear Sir,
You letter requesting a pedigree of our branch of the Worsham
family rec’d. we have no written pedigree; therefore, I will have to depend on
the memory of my father for all the information I give you.
My great, great grandfather came from some European country,
possibly England and settled near Petersburg Virginia. I don’t know the date
at which he came nor his christian name.
My great grandfather, whose name was Essex, fought in the
Revolutionary War. He lived in Williamsburg, Va. for a number of years, then
moved to Prince Edward county, Virginia. He married A Miss Doniphent. There were
six children by this marriage, namely: Henry, Thomas, Samuel, Archebald,
Elizabeth and Sallie. He then moved from Prince Edward to Pittsylvania County,
Virginia, and settled near Staunton(spelling ?) river and there spent the rest
of his life.
His son, Henry, went to Louisiana, married and made his home
there. I don’t know whom he married.
I think all the others made their home in Virginia. Thomas and
Sallie never married. Samuel married Fannie East, there were six children by
this marriage namely: Myles, Issac, Thomas, Martha, Elizabeth and Mary.
Elizabeth married William Smith, they had only one child, a daughter, whose name
I think was Martha though they always called her Puss.
Archebald, my Grandfather, married Dollie Bruce. He had seven
children, namely: William C. Thomas, Henry, Elizabeth, Archebald, John and
Essex. William C. first married Julia Vaughn, there were three children by this
marriage namely: Dollie, James and John. His second wife was Parthenia Payne (my
mother). There were six children by this marriage, namely: William H.,
Elizabeth, Susan, Sallie A., Samuel E., and Charles E.
Henry Worsham married Emma Green. They had six children.
Thomas Worsham married Susan Layne and they had seven children. John never
married, he died in Petersburg while fighting in the Civil War. Archebald
married Lelia Carr; they had eight children. Essex married Martha Hubbard, they
had seven children. Elizabeth Worsham married William Moon.
My great grandfather had a brother by the name of Hal or
Henry. I don’t know whom he married, but he had three sons named William, John
and Patrick. My great grandfather’s brother henry fought in the War of 1812
and he was also in the Battle of New Orleans in 1815. My great grandfather had a
cousin by the name of Branch Worsham living in Prince Edward County a few years
ago. I suppose that he or some of his decendents still live there. My father,
William C., is doubtless the oldest member of our branch of the Worsham family.
He is now seventy-six years old. I am sorry that I cannot give Miss Harrison and
yourself a better history of our branch of the Worsham family, but I hope this
will be of some benefit.
Sincerely,
Sallie A. Worsham" This
letter confirms most of the information on the family of Essex Worsham.
However, the letter has Thomas & Samuel are two different people and that
Essex had another daughter named Sallie. We
have added these two new children.
