Dear Jeanne Byrd:
I have found only a few of the persons named in the Bible records
you sent in surviving North Carolina Quaker records. Using our
index, The Encyclopedia of American Quaker Genealogy (Vol. I), with
reference to the original minutes for verification of a
discrepancy, I determined that there is information on Solomon
Hendricks (also called Hendrickson), Abel Hendricks, and Susanna
Nixon. The information is as follows:
Solomon Hendricks
Perquimans Monthly Meeting
1779,7,7 Solomon Hendricks, having been drafted, was received in
membership.
1785,3,2, Solomon Hendrickson (sic) was reported married to Sarah
Garrett. Note: Job Hendrickson, also called Job Hendricks,
Jr.married Sophia Garrett in Oct. or Nov. 1783.
Abel Hendricks
Suttons Creek Monthly Meeting (Pasquotank Co.)
1821,4,14 Abel Hendrix (sic) disowned from membership for
attending a "marriage contrary to discipline" and for not
attending meeting. There are no other references to him, his
marriage, wife, or children.
Susanna Nixon
Pasquotank Monthly Meeting
Birth recorded 12-15-1785, dau of Joseph and Elizabeth Nixon
1823,8,16 Susanna Hendricks (formerly Nixon) disowned for
marrying contrary to discipline. No further information.
Thank you for sending the copies of the Bible records. We will
file them with our genealogy files. Someone else may find them
helpful.
With regards,
