This "Theoritical Connection" is just that, a theory. However it is the only theory I haven't been able to disprove. Every other theory, I've been able to poke holes in after just a few days. This connects Hiram Lafayette Ezell to THE EZELL FAMILY IN AMERICA OF OLD COLONIAL SURRY, VA. By Christine W. Sheldon. For the rest of the information, please refer to that book. Copies are available. She does an excellent job on the rest of the story.
This completes a dream of my two grandmothers and therefore a dream of mine. They used to sit for hours naming relatives trying to see how they were related. I was very small and would sit and listen. That's how it became my dream. I always wanted to know where I came from and who I was. It had always bothered me not to know my “Ancestry”.
Grandmother Allie (Busby) Ezell was married to William Joseph Ezell and my Grandmother Eva (Ezell) Bridges 10th great grandchild of Timothy (Isaal) Ezell was married to Arthur Bridges 10th great grandson of the Joseph Bridger of "The Old Brick", of Jamestown, (The first English speaking Christian church of America). At the time when I was a child neither could go back farther than a few generations. And thanks to the very thorough job of destroying everything in the South, done by the North, in the Civil War, our heritage practically disappeared. I was happy to see so many relatives trying to reclaim their heritage and I hope some will find this effort helpful.
My grandmother Eva (Ezell) Bridges had been given the Ezell family bible that contained the family history, but it ended up falling apart and the remnants were lost when she was to young to realize its value to future generations. Wherever my grandmothers are, and I have no doubt they are Angels, I hope they will approve this work and will be happy to know that their common relative is George Ezell 1648 of Old Colonial Surrey, Virginia. It is my hope that this work will continue until the picture is crystal clear and preserved for all of our future generations.
My Ezell Lineage's are as follows:
Robert Murl Quinton12 Ezell, Tressie Faye Bridges11, Evylyn Electa (Eva)10 Ezell (James William9, Thomas E.8, William (James)7, Thomas L6, William ( Seit Sr.)5, Thomas Sr.4, Timothy Sr.3, George Sr.2, Timothy (ISAAL)1)
Robert Murl Quinton12 Ezell (Robert Murl Steven11, William Joseph10, Stephen John Wesley9, Hiram Lafayette Sr.8, Lewis7, John6, John5, John4, George Jr.3, George Sr.2, Timothy (ISAAL)1)
Any information that would disprove, or prove, or add or distract from this theory would be welcomed and appreciated.
