Confusion over William DeShazo's
Posted by: Michael Gaines (ID *****3767) Date: February 17, 2003 at 23:35:11

In doing research on extended family, I have created some confusion for myself that I am hoping someone can clarify for me. Please bear with me as I try to explain this confusion (and hopefully won't confuse anyone else). Being that it is kind of difficult to explain, I will simply put a chart on here and list the discrepencies at the end.

First Generation:
Peter de Shazeaux
b. 1660, Besancon, France
m. ?
d. 1719, King & Queen County, Virginia
Children:
1. Robert; 2. John; 3. Richard; 4. Jacques; 5. William; 6. Nathaniel

Second Generation:
1. Robert DeShazo
b. 1695
m. Elizabeth Nichols, 13 Aug 1716; Middlesex Co, VA
d. ?
Children:
7. Richard DeShazo

3. Richard DeShazo
b. 1699, King & Queen County, Virginia
m. ?
d. aft. 1731
Children:
8. Peter DeShazo

Third Generation:
7. Richard DeShazo
b. ?
m. ?
d. ?
Children:
9. William; 10. Robert Bohannon; 11. Edmond Barnett; 12. Clembernett; 13. John; 14. (unknown male)

8. Peter DeShazo

m. Rebecca Pendleton; bef. 1755; King & Queen County, Virginia

Children:

Fourth Generation:

m. Jane Gincy King; 1794
d. 24 Apr 1839; Henry County, Virginia
Children:

15. Louis DeShazo

m. Nancy King
d. ?
Children:
?

16. William Robert DeShazo
b. c. 1759; King & Queen County, Virginia
m. Mary Sawyer
d. bet. 1838 and 1840; Barbour County, Alabama
Children:
23. Robert; 24. John; 25. Richard; 26. Wilson

17. Robert DeShazo
b. 1758; King & Queen County, Virginia
m. Mary Sawyer
d. ?
Children:
27. Wilson


The descrepencies are as follows. First, William DeShazo (son of Richard and ?) is listed as having married Jane King. In messages posted to the board, people have stated that her sister or cousin married his brother Louis, which is practically impossible. Secondly, I have a William Robert and Robert (sons of Peter DeShazo and Rebecca Pendleton) listed as brothers. I have seen mention of a William Richard and think that may be his correct name. But, both are listed as having married Mary Sawyer and both have a son named Wilson. Can someone please tell me which of these is accurate? Also, if there is any other information that is wrong or that you can fill in, please let me know. I can be reached via email at boy_writer@yahoo.com or mgaines@radford.edu Thanks so much and I hope to hear from someone soon!
