No man is an island!
This is especially true when we look at the
information available through this web site. Without the
tireless efforts and generosity of the descendants of George Pegram
of Williamsburg, Virginia, we could not have this history.
The following people have made major contributions to our history
and continue to provide information almost daily so that all the
visitors of this site can discover their heritage. Many
others, too numerous to list, have contributed the data of their own
family, photos and documents related to the Pegram family. We
started this web page with only 900 Pegram descendants and had 2
visitors a day (when we were lucky). Thanks to our
"cousins" we now have 33,000+ linked descendants of George Pegram
online and average 400 - 500 visitors a day. The database of
Pegram descendants found here is a record we can all be proud of!
Winona
is a descendant of Edward Pegram, son of Daniel Pegram of Warren
Co., NC. However, she is probably the foremost authority on the
descendants of Edward Pegram of Dinwiddie Co., Virginia. She
continues to search for all descendants of our common ancestor,
George Pegram, and finds new sources regularly. Without
her constant help and encouragement, this web site would not
exist!
Beth
Bond is a great genealogist and we are fortunate that many of
her family lines also link to early Virginia Pegram family members.
We have posted much of her research on the descendants of James B.
Vaughan and wife Delia Susan Archer. She has also contributed
much to the Boisseau family research. If you have links to any
of the families researched by Beth, I am sure she would love to hear
from you. We will post the URLs to her various websites
shortly.
Jordan
Kearney has extensive information on some of the Pegram and
Nicholson related lines in Warren Co., North Carolina. He has
shared his research, photos, documents and best of all, his
knowledge. He has more on my own Warren Co., North Carolina
line than I do after all my years of research. Like Sherry
Bell Garrison, he grew up in the Warren Co., North Carolina
area and still lives there.
Sherry
Bell Garrison's family still lives in eastern North Carolina.
She is descended through the Pegram, Bell and Harris lines.
She not only has first hand information about the many families
still in the area but has done extensive research from local
records.
Larry
and Roy Jones are
brothers who have joined forces to research the ancestors and
descendants of Dr. Robert Batte Jones of Dinwiddie Co., Virginia who
later migrated to Polk Co., Texas. They have been kind enough to
contribute additional information to include in our database.
If you have links to this line, they would be happy to hear from
you.
Matt
has provided us with an extensive database on Thomas Harris of early
Va. and his descendants. This file includes many early
Warren Co., NC families who are closely related to our Pegram
family.
Delores
is descended from Edward Pegram, son of Daniel Pegram of Warren
Co., NC and related lines. She helped correct my mistakes on
this line and has contributed all the cemetery records from Forsyth
County, NC.
Jane
has given us ALL the information online about the Harton family
which is her major line. In addition to the Harton
information, she has taken the time to abstract records when needed
to provide proof of many of the connections in Warren Co., North
Carolina.
Dorothy
has added considerably to our knowledge of the family members that
went to West Virginia after the Civil War. If you have a West
Virginia connection, I am sure she would love to have it.
Shirley
is a descendant of Zachariah Pegram and Cynthia Lancaster.
She solved a major question by sending us the probate records of
William Pegram who died in Warren Co. in 1877. Until
then, we had not been able to determine with certainty who William's
descendants were.
Ben
is a Milam descended from Daniel Pegram and Lucy Milam whose
daughter Ellen Pegram married Steven Milam. After years
of searching for information on the descendants of this Milam line,
we now have real progress!
Forrest
is a true genealogist. He is not related to the Pegram family
but has gathered information over the years for numerous early
Virginia families which include many of the early Warren Co., NC
families. He has been kind enough to share his
information for the benefit of all our Warren Co., NC related lines.
Check out
Forrest's new site It is truly a great database.
Dorothy
Pegram Roland does not have an e-mail link but she spent many years
researching the Pegrams of Tennessee and is the author of Some
Middle Tennessee Pegrams and Their Ancestors. She kindly gave
us permission to use the results of her many years research for the
benefit of all descendants of those Pegram related pioneers who
settled in present Cheatham Co., TN shortly after 1800. We are
posting data from her book as time allows. Anyone searching
for Pegram links in Tennessee should visit the
Cheatham Co., TN
TNGenWeb site. Descendants of both Edward and Daniel
settled in present Cheatham Co, TN. shortly after 1800.
Our goal from the
beginning has been to document each and every descendant of George
Pegram from circa 1680 to 1920. If you have even ONE Pegram
descendant in your own line, we do hope you will join in and share
your data for the benefit of all Pegram researchers.
