I don't know if I have any info that will help your husband's research but I have a Rachel Osment that married Robert Shannon on Aug. 21, 1811 in the family. The Shannon Family that is. Robert was the son of Robert (Robin) Shannon. Robin's father, Robert, is my ggggrandfather. I'm afraid I do not have any info on Rachel other than marriage date.

As for Lains. What names are you looking for. The Lains married into the Shannon family. William H. Lain son of Armstead Lain, Jr. is my gg-grandfather and I have info on the Lains. There are some contradictions in the family info but maybe I will have what you are looking for.

Another interesting note about Owen LANE. His revolutionary pension was applied for 17 Oct 1832 in Davidson Co, TN. He was aged 77 then, stated he was born in Caroline Co, MD, lived there and enlisted there and was on the Maryland line. Afterwards he moved to Guilford Co, NC and then moved to Davidson Co, TN. This is the same migration for my Ozment family! They went from somewhere in Maryland to Guilford Co, NC and then to Davidson Co, TN and then on to Wilson Co, TN!

Since I sent this query I noticed queries in the Caroline Co, MD page for Richard OZMENT by Dwight Ozment!
Could they be from the same place and migrated together?

I am working on a page for our Ozment/Osment researchers, to list how everyone is descended.....if you would send me your line, I will be glad to post it.......look at the page I did for the Coggin Research Team at:
https://sites.rootsweb.com/~tngenny1/cogtbl1.html
and that is what I will do for the Ozment researchers who send me their lines.....

Yes, please send to the Ozment group. I have talked with Heather and have put my Lane page on her web site. I'm not sure if I have ever talked to Bob. And I don't believe I have talked to Dwight either although I think I have some of his information.

I have another bit of info. There has been some confusion about the parentage of Alfred. Most everyone has his father as John Ozment b. ca 1763 but I have not been able to verify that. I don't know if you have seen this letter below but I am including it because it is very interesting. They have Alfred as the son of James Ozment and Martha Arder (an Indian). It also mentions an Anderson Ozment further up the line that I have never seen anywhere else. Tell me what you think about this:

Old letter from Arthur Jolley, a descendant of Alfred and Nancy OZMENT, to Mrs. D. L. Artchinson. The letter was undated. A copy was sent to me by Rebecca DeArmond. Information in parentheses were put in by the person writing to Rebecca I think.

"Dear Cousin,
Here is the story I promised you. I will tell how the Ozments came to be here. They first lived in England about 1760. James Henry's father moved from England to France. James was 6 years old. He had a brother named Anderson who was 4 years old.
John (James?) Henry's father had a sister named Elizabeth (Ozment) who married a William Eddings. They had a son who was named William. They called him Billy (Eddings). (Therefore, Billy Eddings and James Henry Ozment were first cousins.) He was one year older than James. They moved to France when James was 22 years old. The Revolutionary War broke out. Lafayette, the French General came to America to help Washington, James (Ozment), Billy (Eddings), and William (?) came with him. When the war ended, the boys stayed in America.

Being educated well, the 3 became teachers in an Indian mission teaching Indians. Billy (Eddings) married a Chief (Keoto) daughter, named White Fawn or Elizabeth. Chief Keoto had a brother who had a daughter named Martha Arder. James (Ozment) married her.

Billy and Elizabeth (Eddings) had 13 girls. James and Martha had 4 sons and 1 girl. The sons were James, Alfred, John L. and Richard. The girls name was Lucille.

James L. m. Elizabeth Eddings (probably the daughter of Billy & Elizabeth, therefore his first cousin)
Alfred m. Nancy Lane
John L. m. Dora (?) Ann Frazier
Richard married Rebecca Eddings (first cousin?)
Martha (Lucille?) married Ben Franklin
In 1811 the Ozments and Eddigns moved from NC to McCoon Co, TN. James Jr. fought in the war of 1812 under Andrew Jackson.

In 1839, Alfred and James Jr. & Martha moved to Ozment Bluff, Ark.

John L. Ozment and the Fraziers moved to northern Miss. Later moved to Arkansas with the other Ozments about 1845. About 1850 he went to Texas to join his son, John Jasper Ozment who was there with some of John L's other children, 8 girls and 6 boys. His son, James G. had 14 girls and 2 boys.

John L. had 12 children, 6 boys and 6 girls. John Jasper Ozment was one of the boys."

1810 Guilford Co, NC census:
Page 171
Jonathan LANE 1 male 26-45, 4 males<10, 1 female 26-45

Samuel OZMENT 1 male 45+, 1 male 26-45, 2 males 16-26, 1 male 10-16

1 female 26-45, 1 female 10-16, 3 females<10

Now James OZMENT I believe is the one who is in 1820 Wilson Co, TN.
I have a copy of an old letter that says that James was the father of Alfred, not John which most Ozment researchers have as his father.
As you can see, Alfred, b. ca 1805, NC would fit in perfect with the three males
< 10. Nancy, b. ca 1801, NC fits perfectly with the 1 female under 10!
Am I crazy for hoping. Indidentally, Owen LANE's Rev. War pension file says that he was born in Caroline Co, MD where Richard OZMENT is supposed to be from too! His file says he was born ca 1755, enlisted in Caroline Co, MD, and afterwards moved to Guilford Co, NC and then Davidson Co, TN.
I also found records of an Owen LANE buying land in Wilson Co, TN in the 1820's.
The point is, wherever our OZMENTs are, so appear to be the LANEs.

Look at the others I found in 1810 Guilford Co, NC:

v. REBECCA L. OZMENT, b. 1816, Wilson County, Tennessee; m. JESSE A. GOODWIN, March 11, 1829, Wilson County, Tennessee.

3. vi. SOFRONIA CATHERINE OZMENT, b. 1819, Wilson County, Tennessee; d. December 13, 1896, Lebanon, Wilson County, Tennessee: m . Cameron "Cam" Ozment vii. EMILY OZMENT, b. Wilson County, Tennessee.

Notes for EMILY OZMENT:  She was listed as a minor in 1827.

Generation No. 2

She married CAMERON OZMENT October 25, 1841 in Wilson County, Tennessee, {Cam might be the son of JAMES OZMENT and ELIZABETH UNKNOWN. as James was living next to Cameron in the census of 1850 in Wilson County next to Cam. He would have been about the right age. James is listed as being 83 years old, which would have made him born in 1767. It has not been proven though that he is Cam's father. He seems to be the only candidate, but this is just guesswork right now. We do know that Cam b abt 1811 and (James) Thomas Ozment b after 1797 were brothers. It also seems, but again guesswork that James H. Ozment b 1801-1810, d. August 29, 1849 was also a brother to Thomas and Cam. [ONE THING ABOUT THESE JAMES...WE ARE GOING TO HAVE TO BE VERY CAREFUL WITH THEM BECAUSE THERE WERE SO MANY LM]

Notes for SOFRONIA CATHERINE OZMENT:  Sofronia was known by her middle name of Catherine. She was six years old when her father died. Her guardian, along with her sister Emily, was listed as Samuel Ozment in 1827.

More About SOFRONIA CATHERINE OZMENT:  Fact 1: She is buried at the Osment Cemetery, south of Lebanon, Wilson County, Tennessee  

Notes for CAMERON OZMENT:  Cam Ozment's name was spelt as Ozment in the 1870 census, but he was buried under the name of Osment. Somehow the z was changed to an s by accident or design. We know his son Harrison went all of his life with his own name as Ozment.

More About CAMERON OZMENT:  Fact 1: He is buried at the Osment Cemetery.

OH yes Lon, I would love the will. I have never seen anything on that.

By the way, I have a husband for your Emily! I found these in trust deed records today for Wilson Co, TN. And I finally know who Armstrong Ozment is! He belongs to your line. I have something on him and Samuel also. Sounds like they were characters!

(2) Did Alfred have a brother also named James?

(3) Do you know the maiden surname of Nancy Ann LANE's mother ?

(4) Did Nancy Ann LANE have a brother also named Owen LANE (Jr.?) who was born December 26, 1775, NC and died after 1835, TN ?

Owen LANE (b. 1755, Caroline Co., MD) and my Richard OZMENT (b. ca 1759, MD; died 1830-1840, prob. Wilson Co., TN) and who married Elizabeth LeCOMPTE July 16, 1778, Caroline Co., MD) may have been VERY close friends and even related since both moved to Guilford Co., NC , (possibly Davidson Co., NC) and later to Wilson Co., TN. This lead could POSSIBLY help me confirm the parentage of my 3rd great grandfather, Howard OZMENT, with this Richard. I am fairly certain of this connection, but additional proof would be welcome.

Also, as you may recall, I am a direct descendant of the LANE family of Guilford Co., NC. Could they be related to your Owen?

Looking forward to your reply.

(1) Would you provide me with the name of the person who wrote the old letter in your possession concerning James being the father of Alfred. I do not have ANY parents for Alfred, so that is why I need your source.  

(2) Did Alfred have a brother also named James?

(3) Do you know the maiden surname of Nancy Ann LANE's mother ?

(4) Did Nancy Ann LANE have a brother also named Owen LANE (Jr.?) who was born December 26, 1775, NC and died after 1835, TN ?

Owen LANE (b. 1755, Caroline Co., MD) and my Richard OZMENT (b. ca 1759, MD ; died 1830-1840, prob. Wilson Co., TN) and who married Elizabeth LeCOMPTE July 16, 1778, Caroline Co., MD) may have been VERY close friends and even related since both moved to Guilford Co., NC , (possibly Davidson Co., NC) and later to Wilson Co., TN.

Hi Dwight,

I don't know how much I can help you, but I will try. Most of what I put in that e-mail was information that I had just found with the OZMENTS and Owen LANE in the same place at the same time and with children the correct age to be Nancy and Alfred. I put it to e-mail hoping to get some feedback. I haven't really heard anything yet. This is pure conjecture based on too many similarities. I have found NO PROOF as of yet. I have not been able to find a will for Owen or any Bible records. I also have not found any deeds that might give a clue. I did find Owen buying some land in Wilson Co, although it might have been his son. The point I was trying to show that wherever our OZMENT families were, there was Owen LANE and other LANEs. I have put a query out on the LANE list but have heard nothing.

1) The old letter which had no date was written by Arthur Jolley to Mrs. D. L. Artchison. I have him in my files as a grandson of Alfred and Nancy Lane Ozment. Rebecca DeArmond is the one who forwarded the information to me. She says that Lamar White and Jerry & Nancy White have the best documented Ozment history that she knows of. I have not contacted them yet.
 Do you know who determined that Alfred was a son of John? I received that information from someone and it directly contradicts this letter that says he and James, Jr. were sons of James Ozment and Martha Arder.
 Most genealogies I have seen have him as a son of John, in fact, mine still does. In the 1810 census of Guilford Co, NC, James Ozment had 1 male 16-26, 1 male 10-16 and 3 males < 10 along with 1 female 10-16 and 3 females under 10. Alfred would have been < 10 at this time so he could definitely fit here. The only one that could be John Ozment was a J. Ozment who had 2 males 16-26, 1 male <10 (again, this could be Alfred), 1 female 26-45, 1 female 16-26, 2 females 10-16, and 1 female <10.

2) As far as I know, Alfred did have a brother named James. They did come together and settled Ozment Bluff in Drew County, AR in the early 1840's. I believe his brother James was born 7 Sept 1793 and was married to Elizabeth Eddings.

3) I do not know the name of Nancy Ann Lane's mother. I haven't found anything in the records that even mentions a woman. Keep in mind that the idea that Owen LANE is her father is just a supposition. I am also wondering if Owen's mother was an OWEN. While looking at Guilford Co, NC records, I noticed that there where several Owen families there if I remember correctly.

4)The names of Nancy Ann LANE's brothers, if she had any, is again conjecture. A clue here is the relationship with the McFadden family of Davidson Co, TN.
 A Thomas LANE and a Denny LANE married daughters of Guy McFADDEN in 1819 and 1821 in Davidson Co, TN.
 Nancy Ann LANE married Alfred OZMENT married in 1823 there with Rev. Guy MCFADDEN officiating.
 An Owen LANE married a Polly Fly in 1819 in Davidson again officiated by Guy McFadden I believe. I believe this was the younger Owen Lane. There is evidence in census records that there were two Owen Lanes, one older and one younger.
 Thomas LANE died in 1825. One of the purchasers of the estate was Greenberry OZMENT. In 1810, Owen LANE had 1 male 10-16 (this would fit an Owen Lane, Jr), 2 males < 10 and one female <10 (this would fit Nancy).
 A William LANE had 2 sons < 10 and 1 female < 10 which could be Nancy but it appears that William stayed in Guilford Co, NC.
 A Jonathan LANE had 4 sons < 10 with no daughters.
 A John LANE appeared to have children that were too old.
 Reuben Lane and Jesse Lane might work but I haven't seen any evidence that they went to Tennessee.
 The one who really fits all this evidence is Owen LANE. There was an Owen LANE, age 16-26 with a wife age 16-26 in 1820 in Giles Co, TN which would fit perfectly for the Owen Lane who married Polly Fly and for being the son of Owen Lane.

In the Guilford Co, NC Land Entries, 1779-1796, Dr. A. B. Pruitt, I found evidence that Richard Ozment, Sr and Owen Lane arrived about the same time but their land was on different creeks. I have no idea how close they were. Owen and James Ozment do appear to be living next door to each other in 1810 which I think is a major clue.

#2594 3 October 1787, Richard OZMENT, Sr. enters 50 acres in Guilford Co, S side of Stoney Cr. Border: John Hunter, Florence Sullivan, Josiah Trotter, and Francis Cummings.

#2596 24 Dec 1787, Owen LANE enters 40 acres in Guilford Co, on waters of S. Buffalo Cr; Border: Parks old place on N, by Gorrel on E, Lovet on S, and Martin on W.

#2502 23 Jan 1786 William LANE enters 300 acres in Guilford Co; Border: Risdon Moore's S corner, John Hamilton, Joseph Hiett.

I hope I haven't muddied the waters more. I definitely think there is a relationship. Unfortunately, I can't prove it as of yet.

Eleanor

In looking over some of your names I see you have Mary Carter in your husband's line. She is my ggggg-grandmother. I have absolutely no info on her other than John and children. I sure would appreciate any help you could give me on this side of the family.

I also see that you have Martha Heath instead of Jane Heath in his line. I know they were sisters with Martha being first married to John. My info shows the children of John being Janes children too. I have Alexander, William, Drury, Joseph, Thomas, Juriah, Martha and John. Were some of these children Martha's. Everything I have found shows Jane as the mother. Of course, I have some material that I have not had time to go into in depth. My line goes on into the Shannons, VanHooks, Leas and McCartneys. The Rogers family is also in my line married into the Shannons. I have received some info on Floods too. Some of the other names in your husbands family make little side trips into some of my family but I don't think I have any info on any of them.
Hope we can help each other.

Hi Joyce:
On Carter I only have this:
FIRST GENERATION
1. Armistead CARTER was born in Virginia. He married._____He had the following children:
+2 i. Mary CARTER

SECOND GENERATION
2. Mary CARTER was born in 1745 in Virginia. Died in 1828 in Tennessee.She married John LANE (II). John LANE (II) was born in 1747. Died in 1815 in Wilson County, Tennessee.They had the following children: (listing only my husban'd's line)
+3 i. Tyree LANE
----
As to the Heath women, I checked the file Heather Bowers sent me on Lane's and she, too, shows Jane Heath as the Mother, instead of Martha.... And she shows William Heath as the father of both Martha & Jane and his wife was Martha _____
.....all of the children you mention are under Jane, and not under Martha....so I guess I need to revise that one....

...Heather Bowers, ...does a Lane newsletter and has a Lane webpage...
Which one of John Lane's children are you from?
One of the earlier John Lane's married a Jane Flood....
Nancy Goodman.

Till later, Joyce

Robyn (& others),
Just a few days ago, I told you I would notify you when I found my Mary S. LANE's parents. Well, that day has come. Mary's death certificate lists her father as Robert C. LANE, and her mother as Mary RUTLAND. The parents' places of birth are marked "unknown."

I found a marriage for Robert C. LAIN and Johanna RUTLAND in Wilson Co., TN on 08 Aug 1848 on my AAI Early Marriages CD. Likewise, I found the following two census index entries:

1850 TN Census entry:
LAIN, Robert C. 22, Johnnah 19, Martha 10/12, T T, WL-167-893.

1880 Wilson Co., TN Census entry:
LANE, R.C. 51(m)*, Cordellia 10 (599).

Do you have further information on this family? Do you know for certain that Johanna RUTLAND went by the name Mary?
thanks,

I have disproved as the father of Harvey, William, John, Tyree and some of Armistead, but I have a "gap" in Armistead's children where it is possible that Harvey could fit. Harvey was born 1824. There is NO record of Aaron's children that I can find.
 Aaron's wife was Nancy Monroe and Harvey named a son Monroe, not much, but a clue I guess. DO NOT know any of Harvey's siblings...........
I think Robert M. & Johnson are his brothers & I believe that Mary/Polly Lane who married Hollis Hagar is his sister. I believe there is a connection between Hollis Hagar and Belzey Caroline Hagar who married Harvey.
I have papers showing she was indentured at the age of three, I sent a copy to Robyn and Janice. She was to be indentured until the age of 18 and was not to leave the state (NC), but she married three months before her 18th birthday in Wilson Co TN. I believe when the HAGARS left NC, she came with them. I don't know why she was indentured & why the Hagars did not take her in as a child. I believe it was either or
1. Her parents died & she was an only child & maybe the family did not approve of her mother. 2. She was the baby of a large family & when her parents died all the other children were taken into other Hagar families, but Belzey not being old enought to work or care for herself was indentured.
Whatever the circumstances the HAGARS did not leave her in NC when they came to TN. Could Hollis be an older brother, uncle or what, but he was related!
Well there it is, any suggestions?
Donna

and Tyree's wife was Nancy LIGON and Willard did not marry.

Nancy sent me your LANE info request. I will do some digging and see what I can find. I am certain that
(1) there is a blood connection between the WRIGHT family and the HOLLIS and HAGAR families;
(2) that the LANES are like the WRIGHTS, mostly from an original ancestor back there somewhere........

Nancy,

I am totally confused and I hope you can help me sort it out.

I have a copy of Heather Bowers LANE's descendancy papers, and I'm trying to figure out who are the children of John LANE and Mary Watts MULLINS?

It looks like there are two separate lists and the two don't agree with each other or else I am reading it wrong. Can you help me?

Thanks for sending Joyce Anderson's name and address. .... Still no success on the parents of Harvey Shelton LANE.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Robyn:
I don't have anything beyond what Heather  Bowers sent me in a Gedcom family history file......but I would imagine if you pose your question to her, she may be able to sort it out for you....

And it could be like what I am finding on my Ozment/Osment bunch...somebody has put Richard S.Ozment and Richard D. Ozment together and come up with similar, but not the same children....don't know how we will ever get that straight!!

I have a Mullins line and am on the Mullins mailing list....guess I could post the question to that list and see if we come up with anything.....

Nancy

Donna & Robyn:
I had a note from Joyce Anderson, and wanted to send it in case it helps in your search for the parents of your Lane....

Joyce:
If you have info that will help Donna and Robyn, let us know. and my line is:

LANE, LAIN, LAYNE (John Lain I> John Lain II> Tyree Lane> James Allen Lane> Martha Lane Goodman> Delbert H. Goodman> Aubrey D. Goodman> Billy H. Goodman (my spouse>

From Robyn Lane Collins ([email protected]:)
I'm still trying to find out which LANE brother is the father of my Harvey Shelton LANE, and also find the names of Harvey's siblings. As far a I know, the others who are searching haven't found proof yet either.

From Donna Ferrell:( [email protected] )
Need to find the names of children of William, Aaron & Armstead LANE. One of these is the father of Harvey Shelton LANE. I have always suspected Aaron, he married Nancy MONROE in VA. With Robyn knowing the middle names of some of the children and one being named Rufus Monroe and another Ransom M. all the more reason to work on Aaron. William's wife was Ann DONALDSON and Armistead's was Sarah LEA

As for Lains. What names are you looking for?
. The Lains married into the Shannon family.
William H. Lain son of Armstead Lain, Jr. is my gg-grandfather and I have info on the Lains. There are some contradictions in the family info but maybe I will have what you are looking for.>

I am doing research on the following Lanes:

Elizabeth b. 1838,
Thomas b. 1843,
Mary b. 1844,
William b. 1847,
Martha b. 1850.

Jeremiah died in 1889 in Collin Cty Tx.
John Jackson Lane married Nancy Gentle in Greene Cty Tn in 1866 and they had the followin g children:
Hugh T. b 1867,
Joseph Y. b. 1872,
Charles b. 1871,
Nancy b. 1875 and
John E.b. 1874.
John J. and Nancy moved to Texas in 1880's along with Jeremiah Lane.
John Jackson was a Civil War Vet.
Any information about this family in Tenn. would be appreciated

Subject: LANE: LEAVES FROM THE FAMILY TREE, Chattanooga Times, 1934
Hello,
I posted this to Lane List and it occurred to me that some on this list may be interested also. Sorry for the length...
>I am not sure how to go about this... I have xeroxed copy of articles from the LEAVES FROM THE FAMILY TREE by Penelope Johnson Allen, State Chairman Genealogical Record Commitee, TN Society, D. A. R. from the Chattanooga Times: Chattanooga, TN. These articles appeared in the newspaper on 13 - 20 & 27 of May, 1934. I found them among the Thomas Jefferson Barnes Scrapbook at TN Tech, Cookeville, TN.
Some of the names (too numerous to give all) are
Samuel LANE,
Tidence LANE,
Dutton LANE,
Aquilla LANE,
Eglantine LANE,
Rosa LANE,
Pleasant LANE,
Isaac LANE, etc.
 There are some pictures, Gen James Tidence LANE; Mrs. Abigail (Thomas) LANE; wife of Col Tidence LANE III; Mrs Elizabeth LANE CLARKE; William Tidence LANE; Mary LANE HURST; home of Gen. LANE, McMinn Co, TN c1852; Big Spring Baptist Church, Claiborne TN. There are several places mentioned in articles, McMinn Co, TN, Claiborne Co, TN; Jackson, Mississippi; Brandon, Mississippi; Niota, TN; Athens, TN, etc.
>I would be glad to send copy of this (10 pages) to anyone interested for a SASE and 3 stamps (what genealogist doesn't need stamps?) or I can (if I won't get in any trouble) type the articles as written in several post to the list. There are lots of names, marriages, births, deaths, etc in these articles. Please e-mail me privately with your requests and to obtain my snail mail address.>

Hey folks,

By accident, I happened upon the following entry yesterday.
From Wilson County Chancery Court Records 1850-1854:
"Bill of complaint of Robert C. Lain against P.K. Williamson, executor of James M. Crutchfield, James W. Bashaw and wife Elizabeth B., Richard T. and Nancy Crutchfield, the minor children of the said James M. Crutchfield. Said Robert C. Lain states that his grandfather, Wood Jones, died in 1833. He gave to his daughter, Elizabeth B. several slaves. If said Elizabeth B. died within 90 years without issue, then the increase was to be divided among the other heirs. Said Elizabeth B. was the wife of Adison Lain. She was divorced from his father in 1833 or 34. She then intermarried with James M. Crutchfield by whom she had two children, to wit, Richard T. and Nancy E. The said Robert C. Lain insists on his share of the estate. Jul 1853. (Pp. 443-457)."

SOURCE: (Wilson County, Tennessee Chancery Court Records 1842-1892. <LoCCC# 97-73959> Thomas E. Partlow. Gateway Press, Inc., Baltimore, Maryland. 1997. p. 20).

Does the name Adison LAIN (LANE, etc.) look familiar? He is not listed in the 1840 Wilson Co. Census Index, nor the 1850 TN Census Index... at least not under the name Adison.

Btw, do yourselves a favor and put the aforementioned book on your "Books To Get" list. Even if you don't find ancestors in it, you'll enjoy reading it.
