Re: Thomas Tyson, born in Lancashire

johnip4 — 2012-04-24 04:43:56Z

found your posting while searching for ancestors.
I have a Thomas Tyson married to Mary (Martin?), born in about 1838. I have found a baptism for 1840 that lists him as illigitimate (mother Jane) This fits with family recollections.

Hope you are still on line.

Re: Joseph Sellen Tyson

2purposedriven — 2012-02-26 19:46:01Z

Hi There,

I noticed this post when I was researching the Tysons'
I am a half sister to Ronald Kenneth Tyson. His father Joseph Tyson died when he was a baby. My brother was told that he had no living relatives.
His entire life he has never met a relative from his father's side of the family.
I am planning a 70th birthday surprise party and would love to present him with a book showing he really does have relatives, perhaps even arrange a phone call or two.
His father was the son of Colonel Cornelius? Tyson and Viola Gay Keisyer. Cornelius had a brother Joseph Tyson that lived with them.

Could you please tell me if any of this info sounds familiar to you? Please Please.
My sandra.lynch@cox.net or call me please 949 305 5445 and I will return the call. Moneypenny's Keisters & Law's and Tyson's. All from your part of the country. Ron is now living in Mi. I live in Ca.

Thanks and blessings to you.

I am researching the Tyson/Tison line. My direct line is through Noah Quincey Tyson who married Frances Lastinger. They lived in north Florida and south Georgia. I am looking for information on Edmund Tison and Nancy Cook in Effingham County, Georgia as we believe they adopted Noah when he was a child but have no proof. I am trying to piece together the family of Edmund Tison as we have no proof of any of his family members other than location and name patterns...Thank you, Teresa Tyson Whelan

My grandparents told me that Frances Mary was an orphan but I find Benjamin Tyson w/2nd wife in late 1800's in Lawtey, Bradford Co., & Frances & her children are living with them.

Dauphin County, PA Tysons

mudmusher — 2012-01-07 17:56:29Z

I'm playing connect the dots with my ggg grandfather Henry Tyson (1809-1872) He's buried in Long's cemetery, Halifax, Pa. There are two other Tysons- Jacob (1803-1868), Catharine (1772-1855). Also in the 1860 census Jacob has a Barbara Tyson (about the same age as Jacob) living with his family (wife #3?, a sister?, sister in law?) Is Catharine their mother?
Who are Henry's parents? Where does he fit in?
By the way I have a picture of him and his wife, Mary, taken in 1857- pretty cool!

David:

You may see some trees that connect Joseph Sellen Tyson with Nany UNKNOWN and children Joseph, James William, Catherine (Kitty), Margaret, Richhard, John, and Meredith. THERE IS NO CONNECTION. Joseph Tyson of Culpeper/Fauquier/Stafford Counties VA was my gg grandfather and through DNA testing I've determined there is no connection between my family and the PA Tysons. Just an FYI.

Re: Joseph Sellen Tyson

poetryman2010 — 2011-09-30 14:14:52Z

Thanks...I appreciate that!

I'm descended from Andrew, Hance and Magdalena's oldest child, though this year one online tree I saw gave it as Peter Supplee. But all the sources I've seen since 9th grade say it's Andrew. His daughter Phebe married William Davis, of Conshohocken, and their daughter Rebecca is my great-great grandmother. I discovered this connection by pure chance when I opened a Supplee Family History at random at the Historical Society and saw my mom's name there (!).

Re: Joseph Sellen Tyson

tpkamathes — 2011-09-30 13:27:32Z

I will check with the person who gave me a copy of the book, since it was privately published. He sent me a copy on a disk. The book is titled "Holt Family History". Which one of Hance and Magdalena's kids do you descend from?

Re: Joseph Sellen Tyson

poetryman2010 — 2011-09-30 04:29:36Z

Btw, I checked out your public tree--we are also distant cousins through the Supplee family (I'm also a descendant of Hance and Magdalena Supplee through a different lineage).

Re: Joseph Sellen Tyson

poetryman2010 — 2011-09-30 04:22:15Z

Thank you very much! That definitely helps. Do you know if there's a way to get a copy of that book?

Thanks and take care,
David

Re: Joseph Sellen Tyson

tpkamathes — 2011-09-30 02:09:32Z

Matthias and Barbara Tyson were my 7th great grandparents. The information that I have shows that your Joseph married Ann Nash (1752-1794); he married a Mary ???? after Ann's death. Joseph had 9 children; Jacob, Jona, Joseph, Peter, Joshua, Ann, Mary, Catharine, and Isaac. It appears that all of the children are Ann's. Unfortunately, that is all of the information that I have, as I am descendant from Joseph's brother John. I fairly certain of the accuracy of my information; it comes from a privatly published book that was well researched over many years. I hope this helps, even if it's only a little bit.

Did any of your people ever come from North Carolina or Tennesee? All my best! Gail

TYSON as a middle name

kay_fredricks — 2011-07-18 04:21:00Z

I am actually researching the MOORE family but I have several generations where TYSON is used as the middle name of several of the men. My guess is that that is a Surname from the Mother's side of the family.
Roscoe TYSON MOORE 1904 OK, is the son of
RUBEN TYSON Moore 1869 MS who married Oda "Rea" PRICE
Now either Ruben was the son of Robert Calhoun MOORE 1846 MS and Nancy Ellen COLLINS, or he was the son of
Robert Wilson "Mustang" MOORE and Lydia CABANEY (CAVINESS)
I have nothing more than a name on Nancy Ellen Collins but she and Robert "CAL" Calhoun had 7 children: Ruben Tyson, Lydia Margaret, Mary Elizabeth, Prudence Rachel, George William, James and William P.
* At this time I have Ruben Tyson as belonging to this family.

Robert Wilson "Mustang" Moore,born in 1808 N.C. married to Lydia Cabaney(Caviness)born 1897 N. C., had 8 Children
Robert Calhoun, David H. C., James, Mary, John, William, Lydia and Nancy.
* At this time I have Robert Calhoun as their son, but this may be incorrect and it should be Robert W. who marries and then father's Robert Calhoun.
I have no additional information on Lydia Cabaney(Caviness)

I am of the theory that either the TYSON name comes from The Cabaney(Caviness) or the Collins families since I've not found the name anywhere on the Moore side prior to these two generations.

This family migrated all the way down into Frio Co, TX and then worked their way back up through TX into OK.

Can anyone help me with this brick wall mystery?
