Descendants of David Strait and Ann Briggs
-----------------------------------------------------------.
· Name: David Strait
· Surname: Strait
· Given Name: David
· Sex: M
· Birth: ABT 1745 in Virginia
· Death: ABT 1 Nov 1792 in , Wake, North Carolina
--------------------------------------------------------.
Note:
1765 March--David appears in the records of Isle of Wight Co., VA when he sold 50 acres of land for 10 pounds to Hannah Briggs. He was identified as a cooper of Newport Parish.
Mill Swamp Baptist Church records show his first 5 children's births: Ann on Dec 22, 1765; Loas [Lois] on June 26, 1767; William on Jan 13, 1769; Anna on Dec 27, 1771; and Wat (male) [Wait] on Oct 4, 1774. David Strait is listed seventh on male membership list of the Mill Swamp Baptist Church; Hannah Briggs is listed fourth on female list, and Ann Strait is fifth.
2 Sept 1779 David and wife Ann sold their land to Nathan Ward (believed to be Nancy's nephew) on for 30 pounds. This may reflect the time of their moving from VA to NC.
In 1783 David bought 125 acres lying on both sides of Utley Creek in Wake Co. NC for 30 pounds from Henry Kent, recorded July 7, 1785.
Marriage of David Strait to Priscilla Manning, bond dated 7 March 1786 in Wake Co. NC.
1790 Wake Co. NC census has 2 males over 16 (David Sr. and William); 2 males under 16 (Israel and David Jr.) and 5 females (Priscilla and which 4 daughters? With a step-mother, perhaps a couple of the older girls were working out of the home at this time.)
Last will and testament, dated 22 Nov 1791 and recorded 5 Nov 1792, on file in Wake Co. NC (Bk C p 240), names wife Priscilla, oldest son William, son Israel, son David, dau Amy Riggins [should be Anny Ragan], daus Lois, Nancy [from births, this appears to be Nancy Anna], Wait, Dorcas, Sarah, Selah Strait. So Wait turned out to be a daughter.
Inventory of the Estate of David Strait, Dec'd, taken July 30, 1792:
"Two mares and bason molds, and plate molds and spoon molds, one rifle gun, & a small quantity of powder and lead, one man's saddle and bridle, nine yards of new cloth, one razor, some outstanding debts the amount not yet known, fourteen shillings & seven pence half penney hard money and two shillings paper money, one tukler bottle, some furr the quantity not known. Signed William Strait, Exe."
Not long after David's death, the oldest son William took at least most of the family to Warren Co. KY It appears that Sarah stayed in Wake Co. with relatives,[maybe with her sister Anny/Amy Ragan, or her sister Wait Olive as a mothers helper] as it looks like she married William Goodwin there in 1806.

Children Of David Strait and Ann Briggs
------------------------.
First Child of : David Strait and Ann Briggs
Ann or Amy Strait :
· Sex: F
· Birth: 22 Dec 1765 in Isle of Wight Co., Virginia
· Death: 1856 in Wake Co., North Carolina
· Note:
Isle of Wight Co. VA Mill Swamp Baptist Church records has "Ann Strait daughter of David Strait was born December the 22nd, 1765." There is also "Anna Strait daughter of David Strait was born December the 27th, 1771". [Which I believe, because of the sequence, and the listing of an Amy Riggins, is the Nancy listed in David's will, so think this younger daughter's name was Nancy Anna]
Listed as Aney or Amy Ragan age 84 in 1850 Wake Co. NC census, making her the Ann born Dec 1765. (Some have thought her age is given as 81, but I have xeroxed and studied the film, and I am confident it is 84)
In the Olive Chapel Baptist Church records of Wake Co., Willis Ragan and Ama Ragan are listed as members in 1850. Then death for Willis is given as 13 Jan 1856, and for Anna Ragan just "1856". We are presently assuming that the Ama Reagan and the Anna Reagan are the same person. More research is needed to clarify this situation.

Second Child of David Strait and Ann Briggs
Lois Strait
· Sex: F
· Birth: 26 Jun 1767 in Isle of Wight Co., Virginia
· Death: ABT 1835 in Allen Co., Kentucky
· Note:
At present, it is believed that Lois married a Mr. Edwards after 1791. There is a marriage of a Lois Edwards to Tignal Wade in Warren Co. KY 20 March 1799, at which time her Security William Strait proved her over 21.
Cynthia Wade was born about 1794, about 5 years before Lois married Tignal, so Cynthia is probably either Lois' daughter from her marriage to Mr. Edwards, or is Tignal's from a previous marriage, but for now we are listing her with the rest of their children.
Loiz [sic] Wade is listed on 1823 Allen Co. Tax List after Tignal had been listed previously, from 1816 (no land).
By 1830 Tignal is alone in the Warren Co. TN census (why did he go to TN??), and there is an elderly female in the home of John Wade in Allen Co., which we suspect may be Lois living with her son. By 1840 Tignal has remarried.

Third Child of : David Strait and Ann Briggs
William Strait
· Sex: M
· Birth: 13 Jan 1769 in Isle of Wight Co., Virginia
· Death: 11 Nov 1856 in Allen Co., Kentucky
Note:
William, as oldest son of David, took the family to KY after David's death in 1791, and before 1800. He bought 200 acres on Big and Little Difficult Creek in Warren Co. KY on 30 Aug 1799.
1808 and 1813 lists of messengers for the Bethlehem Baptist Church on the Upper Difficult (organized 31 Jan 1801 as the Difficult Baptist Church) included William Straight. In a printed account of the church, "History of Bethlehem Missionary Baptist Church" it states that "The church was constituted with eight members: James Atwood and his wife Margaret, William Strait and his wife Dorcas, William Thomas and his wife Mary, Thomas Spillman, and Polly Richey [Richardson in another account]. Elder Joseph Logan was chosen as the first pastor."
William is listed as a messenger for the church in 1802, 1808 and 1813.
In the 1810 Warren Co. KY census, it appears that there were two female relatives living in his home-- probably his sister Selah is the female in 16-26 age range, and maybe one of his old maid sisters, perhaps Nancy or Dorcas, is the female in the 26-45 age range. The males would be sons Able (16-26), Briggs (10-16), William Logan and Grey Benjamin (0-10), and the daughters would be (probably) Piety and Winifred (16-26), Temperance (10-16), Elizabeth and unknown female (0-10).
Apr 9, 1818. Between Alpheus WICKWARE ...of the county of Logan & state of Kentucky & Thomas SEARS of the county of Allen and state of aforesaid...sell unto said Thomas SEARS Sr...parcel of land...being in the county of Allen and state aforesaid on Difficult Creek containing 200acres.... headright land granted to Benjamin PULLIAM assignee of Levi COMTON...where the said Alpheus WICKWARE wife was buried....Signed: Alpheus WICKWARE Wit: William STRAIT, James J. PULLIAM, Joseph SEARS pg 269-70 Allen Co. KY Deed Bk B.
In 1820, there is again an unknown female in the 16-26 age range. Selah, Abel and Piety have married prior to this census, so do not show in the home. Briggs (16-26), William Logan and Grey Benjamin (10-16), and Wright and Enoch (0-10) would probably be the males.
In 1830, William (60-70) and wife (50-60) have "old maid" Temperance still at home in the 30-40 range, but no other females. The males were William Logan (20-30), Grey Benjamin and Wright (15-20), and Enoch (10-15). (Enoch was actually more like 17.)
1840 Allen Co. KY census (p 15/58) shows William Strait 70-80 with 1 male 5-10, 2 15-20 and 1 20-30; female 60-70 with 2 5-10, 2 10-15, 1 15-20, 1 30-40 and 1 40-50. Elizabeth Jackson is a widow (30-40) with 6 young children, and apparently they are living with William and wife. Also still at home is Temperance 40-50 and Enoch, the 20-30 year old male. William also has two of his deceased son Abel's young daughters with him--Mary Francis (who later marries Enoch) and Constance. [Allen Co. Day Book, p 127, 130]
1850 Allen Co. KY census (house #868) lists William Strait 81 year old widower with dau. Elizabeth Jackson 45 still living with him, as are son Enoch 37 and his wife M. F. 27 and 7 year old female M. F.
Allen Co. KY Deaths reported during the 1852-61 period include William Strait age 86 widow b NC son of David Strait, mother's name not known. He was listed as physician, and died from the flux.
Although we know that age in a census is often incorrect, here are the ages of William's living children in 1850, and where known, in 1860:
Winifred 55 in 1850 62 in 1860
Temperance 54 in 1850
Briggs B. 52 in 1850 61 in 1860
Elizabeth 45 in 1850 (78 in 1880)
William Logan 43 in 1850 53 in 1860
Grey Benjamin 42 in 1850 50 in 1860
Wright R. 40 in 1850 48 in 1860
Enoch 37 in 1850 46 in 1860

Marriage 2 Mary "Polly" b: 5 Mar 1773
Mary "Polly
· Sex: F
· Birth: 5 Mar 1773
· Death: 16 Aug 1847 in Allen Co., Kentucky
· Note: In Allen Co. KY Deed records, Bk C p141, William Strait and Mary his wife sold land to James Stark on 8 March 1821. On page 254 of Bk C,
William Strait and Polly his wife sold land to Jeremiah Stark on 5 April 1823. By 1850 William is a widow, so we can't get Mary's age from the census. We
don't know of any children that Mary and William had. According to Laurita Sledge, a Mrs. Lena Stoval's father of Allen Co. kept a "death book" which had
the dates of Mary's birth as 5 Mar 1773 and death as 16 Aug 1847. I do not know what his name was, or what became of the book. Is Mary a second wife,
or the same woman as Dorcas? She could have been Mary Dorcas, and called Dorcas, but when she signed a legal document, used Mary.
Married: BEF Mar 1821 in Kentucky

Forth Child of David Strait and Ann Briggs
Nancy Anna Strait
· Sex: F
· Birth: 27 Dec 1771 in Isle of Wight Co., Virginia
· Death: AFT Nov 1791
Note:
In the record of births listed in the Mill Swamp Baptist Church of Isle of Wight Co., VA, the entry states "Anna, female, 27 Dec 1771"; in her father's will, he names an unmarried daughter Nancy, after Lois and before Wait. Lois was born 26 June 1767 and Wait was born 4 Oct 1774, which makes the Anna birth record applicable to this Nancy. We are assuming she was named Nancy Anna after her mother. We do not know if she married or died after the will was written in 1791. There is a sealing of a Nancy Strait to Hurdes Murrell in the 1888 Manti temple records, when other David Strait family members were listed.
If this is the right Nancy, then she would have married in NC or possibly in KY?

Fifth Child of : David Strait and Ann Briggs
Wait Strait
· Sex: F
· Birth: 4 Oct 1774 in Isle of Wight Co., Virginia
· Death: AFT 1850 in Wake Co., North Carolina
Note:
The author of the Olive Family Genealogy (p 26) suggests that her name might have been Waitstill, a name used in that time. Since her age is given as 76 in the 1850 census, that identifies her as the "Wait, male b Oct 4, 1774" in the lists of births in the Mill Swamp Baptist Church records. I therefore seriously doubt there was any other Wait in the family, since this first one obviously lived. I guess the recorder of the birth assumed Wait was a male name?
Wait is called "Wetty" age 76 b VA in the 1850 census when she and her husband James Olive are living with their son Ira in Wake Co. NC (p 197, house #391). In the adjacent house there is a Jefferson Olive, age 34 NC and wife Elizabeth 22, with dau. Luanna age 9 months in Aug

David Strait
· Sex: M
· Birth: ABT 1783 in Wake Co., North Carolina
· Death: ABT Dec 1842 in Allen Co. Kentucky
·
Note:
If David was 21 when he married in Oct 1807 to Sally Thompson, he would have been born sometime before 1786; in the 1810 census he is in age range of 26-45, which means he would have been born 1784 or earlier; in the 1830 he was in the 40-50 year range and in 1840 in the 50-60 year range. Considering all of this, and the fact his birth was not recorded in Mill Swamp Baptist Church, but all census records report his birth as NC, we place his birth as after 1780 and before 1784, so "about 1783".
In the 1810 census he had 1 male under 10 and 2 females in the 16-26 range, which would indicate the presence of an older female other than his wife. This might be one of his or her sisters.
He married Charlotte Pinson 14 Nov 1820, so she wouldn't appear in the census for 1820. Possibly his first wife Sally was still living at the time of the census but died in childbirth in the fall.
In 1820 census, besides himself, there is one male 0-10 (which would be Hosea H. b abt 1813, and 1 female 10-16 (which would be daughter Nancy b after census in 1810); and 1 female 26-45 (presumably Sally).
1830 Allen Co. KY census ( CAN'T LOCATE REFERENCE! ) shows David with
1 male under 5; 1 5-10; 2 15-20; and 1 40-50. (James W. b abt 1829, unknown 5-10 yr old [could this be a son born after census in 1820, at whose birth his mother may have died? or a son of David and Charlotte, whose name we do not know, but as he not named in the 1842 will, perhaps he died about 1841], Hosea H. and another unknown male age 15-20, and David)
1 female under 5; 1 15-20 and 1 20-30 (Emaline Amanda b abt 1827, Nancy b abt 1811, and 2nd wife Charlotte, b abt 1802)
1840 Allen Co. KY census (p 3 line 3) shows David Street with: 1 male under 5 (Perry P.), 1 5-10 (David Betheul), 1 10-15 (James William), 1 15-20 (same? unknown male that was 10 years younger in 1830?), and 1 50-60 (David);
1 female under 5 (maybe a daughter who died before his will in 1842, or the daughter of the unknown adult female in the home), 1 10-15 (Emaline), 1 20-30 (WHO? as Nancy was already married), and 1 30-40 (Charlotte). Are the "extra" male and female perhaps Hosea and wife Nancy living with his parents after their marriage in 1839? Not likely, as there is an H. H. Street listed on the next page of the right age to be Hosea and his wife; no children.
Since Abel's son William Chesley was bound to David after Abel's death in 1833, he should appear with David's family in 1840; but who would be the 5-10 year old male in 1830 if the 15-20 year old male in 1840 is William Chesley??
David's will, written Sept 1842 and proved Dec 1842 in Allen Co. KY, names wife Charlotte, son Hoza H., dau Nancy Billingsley, dau Emaline Amanda Strait, son James William Strait, son David Betheul Strait, and son Perry P. Strait. Will was witnessed by Henry S. Mitchell, William B. McElroy and William Strait.

Marriage 2 Of David Strait To Charlotte Pinson :
:
Charlotte Pinson :
· Sex: F
· Birth: ABT 1799/1802 in Spartanburg Co., South Carolina
Death: 1 Dec 1854 in Allen Co., Kentucky
· Note: Allen Co. KY marriage records show Charlotte Pinson to David Strait 14 Nov 1820, so would not appear with him in the 1820 census. This is his second marriage. She is named in his will in 1842. The next record pertaining to her is her death record "died 1 Dec 1854, age 52 years, widow, dau. of Z. Pinson" in Allen Co. KY. Some transcriptions have it as Chastity, dau of G. B. Pinson. But looking at the original handwriting, we believe it is Z. There was no G. B. Pinson in the area, but Zephaniah had been. Charlotte is the mother of four of David's children: Emeline Amanda b 1827, James William b abt 1829, David Betheul b abt 1832, and Perry P. b abt 1838. I am guessing that the P. in Perry's name is Pinson. Perry is a frequently used name in the Pinson family.

Selah Strait
· Sex: F
· Birth: ABT 1785 in Wake Co., North Carolina
· Death: BEF 1817 in Kentucky
· Note: When Selah was married Nov 1811, she was "over 21". She might have been born just before her mother Ann Briggs died, or possibly she was the
daughter of Priscilla, Davids second wife whom he married in March 1786. Sears researchers have said that Selah's husband, Thomas Sears, remarried in
Warren Co. KY on 24 Feb 1817 to Margery Crawford. If this is accurate, then Selah probably was the mother of only 2-4 children in the approximate 5 years
of marriage. Since there were at least 3 different Thomas Sears in the area at that time, it is difficult to tell which one is referred to in any particular record.
Some interpret her name as Celia.
