Re: Gideon Macon of New Kent, VA
3/15/99
My gggrandfather was Thomas Macon b. abt 1801 in New Kent Co. He married Virginia Savage 12-8-1825 in Henrico Co. VA.According to an article on Family Tree Maker, CD #205,they moved to Albemarle Co. (Charlottesville area) in 1833, had a large family and owned the estate next to Monticello.(Name of it?) Their eldest child was George b. 1830.My ggrandmother was Ida, b. 1847. They are decended from the original Gideon Macon of New Kent so perhaps they named one of their children Gideon.I would love to know the names of Thomas & Virginia's children.I have Thomas on the 1830 Census index and in Albemarle on the 1840 & 1850 census.I also wonder if Thomas later had a second wife as Virginia would have been 47 when she had Ida!
