Charles Weatherford

Family History

Charles Weatherford

Born around 1750 in Virginia to Mary Half Blood and Martin Weatherford, Charles may have had several wives and many children. Indian Traders and horse breeders brought them south to Georgia during the American Revolution and into Alabama where Charles is famous as the spouse of Sehoy and having a son named Chief Red Eagle. Along the Alabama River around Boylston and Fort Toulouse in Wetumpka, they have their horse ranches and teepees, right where my own family grew up.

There are many stories and books written about these families. Martin had a huge plantation in Georgia and Charles probably went back and forth, and probably used the name Georgia as the middle name of his daughter Catherine who was born in Virginia. Catherine Georgia Weatherford Wright was one of my dad's many grandmothers and she was the half sister of Chief Red Eagle. One could suppose that her mother, Patsy, was also of Indian Blood.

Charlotte County was constituted by Act of 10 November 1764, dividing it from Lunenburg County. The first court for Charlotte County was held in March 1765.

Lunenburg County formed 1746 from Brunswick County

MARTIN5 WEATHERFORD (RICHARD R.4, WILLIAM WHITHEFORD/3, JOHN WHITHEFORD/2, THOMAS1 WHITHEFORD/WEATHERFORD) was born 1728 in James City Co., Virginia, and died Mar 1805 in Harbour Island, Eleuthera, Bahamas. He married (1) MARY HALF BLOOD 1747. She was born Abt. 1730 in Virginia, and died Unknown in Augusta, Richmond Co., Georgia. He married (2) ISABELLA ARCHER Bef. 1775 in Possibly Augusta, Richmond Co., Georgia. She was born 17 Aug 1760 in Georgia, and died 24 Aug 1807 in Harbour Island, Eleuthera, Bahamas.

Notes for MARTIN WEATHERFORD:

Martin had a patent on 600 acres on Laton's Creek. Laton's Creek is a branch of Buckhorn Creek in Mecklenburg Co. This is found in Vol. 5, pa 450 on 9 Nov 1753.

Martin was in Va. then Ga. then Florida for about a year when the Spanish took Florida, they headed to the Bahamas.

Some of this was info. that was posted by Allyson Lee.

About 1757, Martin, John, William and Charles Weatherford headed to Augusta, GA. John supposedly stayed in S.C. During the Revolutionary War, they formed the Augusta Loyalist Militia, which had about 1100 Tories. When Augusta fell in the 1780's, 250 persons from various counties, including Charles, Martin, James, John, Charles and others were put on trial and ordered out of Augusta. An act of Confiscation and Banishment in Augusta on 4 May 1782 from the State Archives Ref.: Candler, Revolutionary Records of Ga. Vol. 1 (1769-1782) page 386. "Be, and they are hereby declared to be banished from this State forever" 60 days in which to go, otherwise, jail or expedition "beyond the Seas to some of the British Kings dominion." Martin went to Florida, then to the Bahamas, where there are a number of Weatherford's. William went to the Florida Keys and Charles went to Alabama and then to St. Augustine, FL. John was the odd duck, he was in the War but was in the Continental Army. Martin's grandson became the Creek Indian known as Red Eagle. Martin and his family moved to the Bahama's.

Note: Martin's land that was confiscated was five miles north of Augusta, Ga. In the 1970's, Govenor Telfair lived on the land.

Notes for MARY HALF BLOOD:

Mary was of Indian descent. She was supposedly what you would call a half blood. She moved with her family from Virginia to Augusta, Georgia around 1757. Her name or middle name may have been Jane?

More About MARTIN WEATHERFORD and MARY BLOOD:

Marriage: 1747

Notes for ISABELLA ARCHER:

This is an assumption only at this point, but my assumption is that it may have been a niece that had married Isabellas' son William Martin, since her name was Isabella Archer too but the birthdates are within reason to be a niece I would say. You may want to do further research here.When Martin married Isabella they had lived in the Bahamas. Many of their descendants still reside there.

Notes for CATHERINE WEATHERFORD:

At this time, Catherine's first name will need further research. My questioning this is because Martin and his second wife also named a daughter Catherine and her nickname was Caty. Now Caty MAY have been named after her older half-sister, I don't have the answer at this time.

More About JOHN HALL and ISABELLA WEATHERFORD:

Marriage: 24 Dec 1817, Bahamas

Charles was a trader among the Creek Indians, shown as a "white", married to a woman of the Creek Nation.

Charles was granted 150 acres of land near Augusta, Georgia on December 7, 1762. This grant of land could have been either from military service, or, granted because of his having a Creek wife.

I know Charles served in James Edward Powells' 2nd Troop of Georgia Rangers from October 1, 1762, to April 1, 1764. So, he could have come into the land either way.

His property was bounded on one side by that of Bryant Ward, a white resident among the Cherokee, born in Scotland in 1735, who was married to Nancy Ward, better known as "Ghigau", meaning " Beloved Woman". Nancy was a very prominent person among the Cherokee, and revered by the Cherokee, so much so, that the Cherokee leaders held her words/ advice in high regard. Unusual for the time because generally, leadership decisions were left to the men, and women were not given prominence in decisions that affected the Nation. Therefore, Charles Weatherford had a very important neighbor in Nancy and Bryant Ward.

On another side of Charles' property, was John Vann Jr., his father being trader John Vann (white), his mother being a Cherokee woman. John Jr. was half Cherokee. The Vann's being a most prominent and important family among the Cherokee, some of which were leaders of the Cherokee Nation.

Another side of Charles property was held by Martin Weatherford, Charles' father.

Next, my question is, could Martin's wife, the mother of Charles, have been Indian? All we find about her is her name "Jane". Two of the most common "white" names that were given to Indian woman by the white's was Jane and Mary. Such names made the Indian women seem more "civilized" to whites, and were also easier to pronounce than their original Indian names.

I am not saying that Jane WAS Indian, only that there is a good possibility that she could have been. Traders among the Indians almost always took Indian wives, for it gave them better standing with the Indians as a whole, and they were more likely to be trusted, and confided in, if they were connected to the Indian peoples.

This gave the trader the ability to hear and see what the general population of white people were not allowed, such as the possibility of war against the white settlers, advance warnings of things that would have been important to the white settlers safety, movements of settlements of Indians, the when and where of the important leaders of the Indians.

It is also important to note that as a trader, Charles would have moved around a lot through the vast wilderness, and had he had a white wife, this would have made it difficult to maintain his household and be away among the Indians for extended periods of time.

As the Indians often picked up and moved with the seasons to different areas of their country, due to hunting game, and forage for their animals, it would have been very hard for a white wife to locate him, whereas, if he was married to an Indian woman, he would always know where the Indian people were and they would have means of locating him if need be. The Indian grapevine was extensive and quite efficient.

If Charles mother was of Indian ancestry, then Charles would have inherited Indian blood from her, as would any of his siblings who were born to Martin and Jane.

By 1780 Charles was married to Sehoy Tate. Sehoy can get a little confusing due to the fact that her mother was also named Sehoy.

Lachlan McGillivray was a trader among the Creek Indians. He was born about 1725 in Scotland and came to Georgia in 1736 as an indentured servant of John McIntosh.

In 1744 Lachlin received a license to trade among the Indians, both the Creek, and later he was licensed to trade among the Choctaw.

By 1764 he was the owner of a plantation called Vale Royal, near Augusta.

Lalchlin McGillivray married Sehoy Marchand, the daughter of a French officer at Fort Toulouse and a woman of Creek blood. Sehoy Marchand's mother was referred to as " a Creek woman of the Wind Clan", a "sister to the chief Red Shoes", and a "principal woman of the Creek Nation".

Historian Thomas Woodward recorded that Sehoy Marchand's mother was a full blood Tuskegee, who married trader Malcom McPherson, and had a daughter named Sehoy. Sehoy Marchand McPherson later married Lachlan McGillivray.

While most sources state that Sehoy McPherson Tate Weatherford, was a sister to the Creek Indian Chief Alexander McGillivray, she was in fact, a half sister to Alexander, and Alexander himself made the statement that while they had the same father, they had different mothers. Alexander also mentions cousins named McPherson.

It is interesting that Alexander McGillivray was married to the daughter of trader Jacob Moniac. Jacob Moniac was a Creek trader, originally from Holland. He was married to a Creek woman. He had one daughter who married Alexander McGillivray, another who married the Chickasaw Indian chief William Colbert, one other daughter married a Josiah Francis, a Creek, better known as "The Prophet".

It is interesting because, from information that I have, I find that Charles Weatherford's daughter Elizabeth ( Betsy), married Samuel Moniac, a son of Jacob Moniac. Samuel was also called Tokkes Harjo. Elizabeth later married a Riley.

The same information shows that Charles's son, William, Red Eagle," was married to three wives; Mary Moniac, Sapoth Thanie, and Mary Stiggins.

John D. Weatherford, son of Charles married a Creek woman. They had at lest one child, a daughter. No names given for these women unless I accidentally missed them, but this daughter married a man named Kellum. I have not investigated further on John or wife and daughter.

Charles daughter Rossannah (Roseanna) married a Captain J. W. Shomo. He is reportedly a Creek, but I have not found anything further on him . I do have other materials I can check through later though just to see if anything turns up on him.

But I find it interesting that the Moniac name keeps popping up so many times. Mkes me want to dig more and see how these people managed to get so interwoven with each other. Things like that fascinate me.

I also have some info that says Charles had another daughter ( Suzie/Susan) who married a Sizemore. I have found an Alexander Sizemore, a Creek Indian, born in 1839, the son of William Sizemore.In 1860 Alexander Sizemore was living in the household of Charles Weatherford in Monroe County, Alabama, and who married "into the Weatherford family". I have to say that this is pretty good evidence that Suzie/Susan Weatherford married Alexander Sizemore.

William Sizemore (father of Alexander) was a Creek Indian, his wife was Parey Collins, of Creek blood.
