Elizabeth,Littleton, John Lott, & Franci
I have run into a brick wall in trying to find the parents of:
1. John Littleton Ivey, born in 1823, married Mary Louise Adams and then Amanda Adams 9/28/1848.He had at least 11 children including:
i. Thomas Littleton b. 1850,
ii. Robert Littleton b. 1864
iii. John Peter b.1855 (whose son was Casper Owen Ivey and granddaughter was Olive May Ivey).
2.John Peter Ivey, bornin 1831, marriedMary A. Moss.Their children were:
i. SarahJ.b.1855-56
ii. Virginia (Nora Virginia) b. 1858
iii. George P. (Peter) b. 1862
3. Benjamin Byrd Ivey, born in 1835 and married Frances Newton.Their children were:
i. Walter Thomas b. 1859,
ii. Benjamin Lafayett b. 1867
iii.Mary Magdalene b. 1874.
Their mother was probably Sarah.
Having been up against the wall for some time now I took a different tack and jumped from the known to the unknown.I searched this forum for references to Littleton and found the following postings: 37 ,55, 58, 236, 260, 263, 285, 325, 312, 397, 446, 588, 615, and 616.
In addition to conformation of most of the above, I find that an Elizabeth Ivey b. 7/10/1769 married a Baptist minister, Rev. Littelton Meeks and had at least two children, Littleton Meeks Jr. and Francis Lucinda Meeks.This is the first mention of the name Littleton in connection with the Ivey family.From there the speculation begins.Elizabeth’s father might have been Nathan Lott Ivey or John Ivey or John Lott Ivey. Her brothers may include Thomas Ivey and/or Steven Ivey who named a son Littleton M. Ivey.Her grandfather, through John Lott Ivey may have been Francis Ivey.
1. Can someone eliminate some of the Ifs, Might Bes and Mays and support any firmer connections?
2. Can anyone make a connection between Littleton M. Ivey, son of Steven Ivey and the John Littleton Ivey b. 1823?
