Annie or Elizabeth "Betsy" Ross Paschall NC
Posted by: Debbie Wood (ID *****3521) Date: April 11, 2009 at 23:34:31

Miss Ross (Annie or Elizabeth "Betsy") married John Paschall of Granville Co NC in 1837. Their daughter, Dianna/Dyanna Paschall married a Richard Mason in 1862 Weakley Co TN. I was told that Miss Ross was a daughter of American Indian, John Ross? Any information on Annie/Betsy Ross ancestry would be appreciated. I am also seeking ancestry of Richard Mason.

Here are my census notes of daughter, Dianna, for anyone interested in that line.

Thanks

Wanted to share what I found this evening while reading census images for Mason and Paschall for anyone interested. I am from both the Paschall and Shadrach/Shadrick lines and I have Masons from NC married into both. Poorly written and poorly indexed census records did not give us much for Dianna and husband Richard Mason. I deciphered some of the images and here are the results so far. Diana lived until after 1910 in Weakley Co TN.

Dyanna Paschall, dau of John Paschall and Annie/Elizabeth Ross of Granville Co NC...was born March 1844 NC..married Richard Mason on 12 Mar 1862 in Weakley Co TN. Richard Mason born NC 1835, died between 1880-1900 Weakley Co TN.

Children, all b Weakley TN, I found in census records:

1. Narcissa b 1865 TN
2. Mary b 1867 TN
3. D ? male b 1872
4. Charley L b Nov 1875 (I have spouse and 4 children thus far)
5. Jack W b May 1878 TN
6. Alena 1879 TN
7. Will Arthur b Jul 1882 TN
