Hi,
I stumbled across your site and am very interested to see if you have a connection to my great-great grandmother. Her name was Mathilde Eugenia Veazey from St. Martinsville, Louisiana. She married David John Reid in 1845 and ended up in Lake Charles. Any information about her family would be appreciated.

Date: Sun Sep 19 20:02:47 1999Hoping to find a link?
I have just begun the search into my family lineage, and I was so pleased (I actually clapped!) to find the Veazey-Veasey website! I couldn't believe I could be so lucky. My link to the Veasey name is through my grandfather, Wallace Vandergriff Veasey who resided in Alabama. His siblings were Charles, Harry (or Harold), and Imogene. I am at a loss as to who my great-grandparents were, as he never spoke of them. I am particulary interested in the Vandergriff connection, but would love to trace the Veasey line as well.
Your help would be greatly appreciated.

My Great-great-grandparents, John Hamilton & Nancy Veazey were married in Saline Co. Arkansas, near Sheridan, Arkansas on July 27, 1853. The 1860 Saline Co. census shows John Veazy, age 65, living with John & Nancy Hamilton. I have much information on some of the children, but nothing more on Nancy Veazey. Thank you for providing this site.

Well, my family and I did indeed visit Alnwick Castle in Northumberland, England on our vacation to the British Isles........Oh my, what an imposing structure, it actually took my breath away, just knowing that in our past, this place could have very well been awarded to an ancestor of ours. It is pronounced "Ahnick" by the residents that live in the delightful village that surrounds the castle. We took numerous pictures and anyone that's interested in seeing what it looks like, I will scan them too you. We drove (on the wrong side of the road!) about 1200 miles in 7 short days including visits to Scotland, Northern Ireland, Republic of Ireland, Wales and a very large portion of England. We had a wonderful time and I would encourage any and all to visit "our" roots and see for yourselves.

Hello Ann,
I'm seriously impressed with this vast number of American "cousins" and the fascinating story of the American line. I am directly descended from John Vesey, a miller, of Peatling Magna, Leicestershire, England, who produced four sons, amongst them my 7xGreat grandfather, Abraham,(bapt.1660) who married Sarah Snow in Harborough Magna, Warwickshire, in 1687. I too have a huge database on the Warwickshire/Leics Veaseys,and the name generally, and I wonder if you have any inkling where the American branch sprang from originally.
Did you know that there was a Bishop Veasey in Warwickshire in the 15th century? His name was actually Harmon, but apparently he took on his mother's family name.
Best wishes,
Diane Lindsay

Hello. I am grandson of Steven Logan Veasey of Wake Co., NC formerly of Durham and Granville Co. Currently I live in Bear, DE so I guess I have taken the family back almost to its U.S. roots of Cecil Co. MD. Oddly enough, my grandfather Clifton Slaughter was from Stem, NC and later moved to Wake Co. where my parents met. My grandfathers did not know one another earlier, but had in fact lived in the same house in Granville county at different times! The Slaughters are of the Jacob Slaughter crowd formerly of Gemantown (Philadelphia) PA. Funny how one keeps stumbling over bones!

My grandmother was Margaret S. Veazey, born July 3, 1885, married Frank Beasley (9/15/1878 - 6/2/1957) of Granville Co. NC and moved to Richmond VA in early 1900s. She had sons Clifford M., FrankJr., Eugene, and Leonard C. Beasley. She returned to NC in 1918 to nurse her mother, who was sick with the great post-war influenza epidemic, contracted the flu herself, died Jan. 7, 1919, and was buried in Oakwood Cemetery, Richmond. I believe her mother died about that time as well.
Unfortunately, that's all I know about my Veazey ancestry, but I'm hoping to learn much more.

Date: Sat Aug 15 10:03:59 1998Finally found my Veazey Roots
My Grandmother, Wilmoth Lee Golay Nagle started the search for our family roots about 20 years ago. She was never able to find the names of her grandmother's parents. Her grandmother was Samantha B. Veazey who married Henry Newton Alexander in August of 1867. She was still searching for their names when she died in 1993. It was one of the saddest days of my life as my grandmother and I were very close. I promised her then that I would carry on the search for our family heritage. I was able to trace the Alexander side of the family back to the 800's AD in Scotland and all the relations to the royal families of Europe. I wish she could have been alive to see all of this coming together.
I came across this web site purely by accident while searching other sites for Veazey's. There were so few leads to be followed that I was beginning to lose hope of ever finding Samantha's parents and the rest of her ancestors.

What a wonderful site! My interest in
genealogy began with wanting to find out
where my Great Aunt Ella Canon Davis is
buried. I have been searching for over
a year now and I realized that in order
to find her, I needed to know about her
relatives. Ella's father, William
Alexander Canon had a half sister named
Josephine (Josie) Hill. She either
married an Ellis Veazey or one of her
daughters did. (probably in Mississippi)
I would like to contact descendants to
find out what information they might
have concerning Ella Canon Davis. Anyone
who even might have some clues for me,

I am a decendent of the Veasey family, as yet not thoroughly documented. The name Veazey (Veasy) has carried through the maternal side of my father's family for many generations. My father is Melville Wayne Cummins. His grandfather was Robert Veasy Alexander Jr.. R.V. Alexander, Sr. and Andrew Alexander (both buried in Sullivan County, MO are further ancestors.) We believe that Andrew's father was Robert Veasy, son of Andrew Alexander, who was a son of Robert Alexander who married Lucy Veazey of Cecil County, Md.
We are now researching this Veazey line. Andrew Alexander, (father of R.V. Sr.) married Phoebe LaRue in Virginia. The family migrated to Coles County, ILL, Sullivan County, MO and on to Washington State.

Thank you for responding to my GenForum inquiry concerning my great grandfather, Samuel Veasey. More importantly, thank you for introducing me to your fascinating Website. I know much about my great grandfather during his residence in Phila from 1870 to his death in 1886, but nothing prior to this period except his birth year (1833) and birthplace (Delaware). As I mentioned in GenForum, he has always been rumored to have been a Native American. I will provide you with all I know about him if you think that there might be a familial connection to your Veazey/Veasey family.

Jesse Pearl Adams 6/18/1862-3/25/1930, who married Mark M. Veazy 1852-1914, was my grandmother's first cousin! Their mothers - Sarah WAshington Francis, 2/12/1834-7/1/1911 who m. John Quincy Adams, 3/121/1829-4/19/1903, and Henrietta Maria Francis, 3/4/1847 -3/18/1936, who m. Robert Owen Jones 6/20/1847-7/4/1936, were sisters! Cousin Jessie's sister Mary Belle Adams married Co. James L. Burchfield, also from Hopkinsville. Cousin Jessie's daughter Artemisia, my dear old cousin Artie lived here in Louisville for years, and stayed with my dad for a while after my mother passed away. Her daughter, whose married name is Davis still lives in Louisville, I think! What happened to Mary Ella Veazy, born 1894 She married l. Claude Cox 2. Mount Rains. Died in FL I think,please write.

Date: Wed Apr 29 20:28:17 1998Great Web Site
I have just joined Tripod because I was reading the messages people left and all of a sudden there weren't any more after Jan. I am hoping to find the rest of them now that I am a member. As you know, but others do not, my Mother was Lillie Harris Veazey who was the daughter of William Bee Warren Veazey (11/25/1856-8/10/1933). I keep seeing him referred to as a business man from Spartanburg, SC. His father was Thomas Jefferson Veazey and his father was John Veazey who was married to Elizabeth Gardner. I would love to hear from others who are connected to this line. See you in Chattanooga!

As you can see I finally made it with all the /'s,_'s and love that (~). We will be in Durham
within the next three weeks. Will call you then.
Wish we could go to Chattanooga. Will be thinking of you. When you get time, please let me know the address of our cousins in Charlotte. Have you heard anything else from Patricia Daniel? I lost track with everything going on. I haven't been able to get any information from my aunts on the Daniel side, but even with all the family names, Osborne, Allen, Rueban (Daniel), I haven't been able to determine if we are related.
Your web pages are great and are very impressive.
I feel very fortunate to be your cousin and be part of the Veasey/Veazey Clan. Did you have the newspaper clipping on Johnny's baseball career?

I was reminded of your visit to my web-site yesterday when I ran into a cousin who just got back from Hillsboro. He was able to visit the grave of William Andrews out there. He said it was presently unmarked, but some of the Andrews in the area were able to show him where it was located. He also said they thought he had the Andrews look: tall with big ears. He enjoyed it, and said they treated him awful nice even though he was from Arkansas.
A group of us plan to come to NC in the fall to see the old Andrews stomping grounds.

Hello cousin,
Received the book you sent, today. I found it very interesting. I haven't read to much of it yet. The military keeps me very busy so most of my free time is spent with the family. I just wanted to drop you a note to thank you for the book.
I'm so glad dad found you on the net. It's the only thing he talks about these days. The fact that he found you has perked him up alot. I guess he told you his health is not all that good. Well need to stop yacking and get to work. Thanks again for the book.

Dear Ann,
My dad, Haywood Daniel Veasey, was the genealogist in my branch of the family for many years. He's now in his eighty's and unable to do much anymore. I'm truly glad to learn about your book and the work that it represents and I'm sure dad will be too.
How can I get a copy of the book?
Thanks again,

It's great to hear of this site. It's really neat. Sorry I haven't been able to come to too many reunions since moving to Texas, but I'm keeping up with the information. Keep up the good work. By the way, there is an addition to my immediate family. Our son, Gary L., Jr (b.1/10/74) married Leigh Anne Smith (b.4/27/74 in Charlotte, NC). They were married in Charlotte on 9/23/95. Her parents, Larry and Brenda Smith are from Abermarle, NC, and now reside in Charlotte. Gary, Jr. graduated from UNCC in May 1997 with a BA in Graphic Design & Illustration. Leigh Anne graduated from CCC in May 1995 with a diploma in Dential Hygiene.
That's about all the new news. Hope to keep in touch.
Love, Gary (Link's eldest)

Ann,
You finnally made it to the Net and I must say that you have made a "GRAND" entrance. This is a very nice WEB Page. I really believe that some of the mysteries will begin to be solved because of this NET presence. It's been ages since we talked. I am one of the lost Veazey's, probably descended from the Pennsylvania clan. Have been in contact with Dennis A. and was unable to come up with any connections. You already have all of my family research in your files. We are currently living in Texas. Please E'mail me whenever you have any kind of info that might be helpful in my research...
Thanks for all you've done & continue to do,
Mike

Your web site is very comprehensive, Ann. I first heard of you last year when a gentleman who was passing through Denver ( I've forgotten his name, but his last name was a Veazey) called me out of the blue. He said that whenever he visited a new city he would call all of the Veazey's in the phone book just to check if they were related or not. He told me about the reunion each year and gave me your address. I have just begun my research into my family background. I'm just at the beginning of a long journey. Its nice to meet other "travelers" along the way.
