Gabriel Long son of Nicholas Long of North Carolina
I'm trying to piece together how my Great Great Grandfather William Bruton (Doc) Long (1847-1924)is related to Gabriel Long.Family history says Doc was the son of Gabriel Long (1809-1864) and Marian Hawes.I have seen that this Gabriel is most likely the son of Gabriel Long (1774-1850) who is the son of Major? Gabriel Long (1750-1797) from Halifax, likewise son of Colonel Nicholas Long who was QuarterMaster of the Southern Department.
Can anyone confirm that I have the line correct or show that I am wrong?It would also be nice to know that Major Gabriel Long isn't the famous Captain Gabriel Long of Morgan's Rifles in the Revolutionary War (although that would be very cool if it was!).
Anyhelp would be greatly appreciated.
