Ingram Family

Descendants of Samuel Ingram (est1730-1799/1801VA) and Ann Stewart (est1742-)

Following are only very brief, basic notes and not a complete, well-organized narrative of this family. Further, a lot of the "information" that exists about the family is reported without any primary source citation, particularly from the dreaded Ancestral File. Michelle Thomas' website (below) does include some important primary and secondary source citations.

The earliest record we have for our Ingram family is Samuel Ingram; born estimated 1730 died 1799/1801 at Montgomery Co., Virginia (will); married est 1760 to Ann Stewart. Ten children, only some of whose descendants are known by me. Descendants (Ingram) in Virginia and to Logan County, Kentucky; Wayne County, Kentucky and Pike/Lincoln Counties in Missouri. He had a son Samuel, so he is precisely identified as Samuel, Sr. and it is important to ensure distinguishing between the father and son. Note that Pulaski Co. Virginia was formed in 1839 from parts of the original Montgomery County which includes the part of the Montgomery County where our Ingram family lived. Some records for these Ingram's may be shown in Pulaski Co. Further, some modern descriptions (family trees, narratives, etc.) may incorrectly state pre-1839 events as having occurred in Pulaski County, instead of the correct Montgomery County.

There were a LOT of contemporaneous Ingram's in Virginia, Georgia, North Carolina, Tennessee, etc. who are not known to be related. These Ingram's have been very illusive to track down and many researchers have been and are looking into them. Many people have also mixed them up severely and have posted that erroneous information on the internet.

Samuel Sr. was a Revolutionary War Patriot. (DAR Patriot Index, 1990 edition: "INGRAHAM: INGHRAM, INGRAM Samuel: b c 1740 VA d 1799-1801 VA m Anne --- Pvt CS VA" pg. 1566 (Volume II)). However, see later discussion.

Children were apparently (in no particular order): Rachel, Samuel, John, Jonathan, James, Nancy, William, Jemima Minerva, Mary "Polly" and Aaron. More later.

No direct or meaningful circumstantial evidence of the parents of Samuel Ingram (est1730-1799/1801) has been found. Despite this lack of evidence, various unsupported claims of his parents have been posted on the internet as fact. These claims contradict each other and appear to be only based on the existence of a "Samuel" Ingram around the time period and wishful thinking. The only thing I claim to know for certain is that "our" Samuel was first recorded in 1767 in Montgomery County, Virginia; appears in some other records there; died between 1799 and 1801 there and left a will which specifically names some of his children along with a headcount.

Comments and Issues

The first Ingram that we have reliable data about is Samuel Ingram. Some early records are described at Michele Thomas' Web site.

As is unfortunately usual, there is erroneous and conflicting information on the internet about Samuel Ingram, purported ancestors and descendants. Some websites show substantial errors including totally erroneous lists of children for some families along with unsupported, contradictory claims of parents.

Jonathan Ingram (est1756-aft1830) and Barbara Menefee (est1762VA-1820)

Jonathan Ingram (est1756-aft1830) was the son of Samuel Ingram (1740?-1801VA) and Ann Stewart (est1842-?) Barbara Menefee (est1762VA-1820) was daughter of John Menefee (est1721-?) and Mildred Johnston (est1723VA-?).

Children of Jonathan and Barbara (Mennefee) Ingram were Rhoda, Jonas, Samuel, Jarrot, James, Anna, Polly and Barsheba (Pioneer Families of Missouri, Bryan and Rose, 1935/1977, pg. 272).

Those descendants that went to Missouri lived in Pike, Lincoln, Warren and Montgomery Counties, all of which adjoin.

Jarrott Ingram (1787KY-1851MO) and Nancy Hudson (1790-1871MO).

Jarrott Ingram b. 15 OCT 1787 @ Logan Co. KY, d. 26 SEP 1851 @ Pike Co. MO marr. 30 JUN 1807 Logan Co. KY to Nancy Hudson, b. 28 May 1790, d. 20 OCT 1871 @ Pike Co. MO. Both buried Ingram Cemetery, Pike Co. MO. Jarrott was son of Jonathan Ingram (est1756-aft1830) and Barbara Mennefee (est1756-1820). Nancy was daughter of Isaac Hudson (1763NC-1848MO) and Mary "Polly" Shipper or Shepard (est1764-1836MO). Children of Jarrott and Nancy (Hudson) Ingram: were Polly, John, Barbara, Jonathan, Elizabeth Ann, Samuel, Nancy, Sally, William and Lucinda.

Ancestor connection: Barbara Ingram b. 1812 Logan Co. KY, d. 6 Sep 1881 Lincoln or Pike Co. MO, dau. of Jarrott Ingram and Nancy Hudson marr. 11 Oct 1836 @ Lincoln Co. MO to Josiah Wilson Park b. abt 1814 KY, d. cal abt 1858. Lincoln or Pike Co. MO.

Have more on these families to add later.

Other Ingram line - Pike County, Missouri

There was another Ingram line in Pike County, Missouri with no known relationship to Samuel Ingram. These were descendants of Stephen Ingram who was born 15 Jan 1786 in Yanceyville, Caswell County, North Carolina; died 1853 in Cuivre Township, Pike County, Missouri. There is one family tree on the internet showing ancestors, but I have not seen any complete tree for family and descendants of Stephen. Census and other records in Pike County appear to provide complete data for this line. Most seemed to live in the Bowling Green area, some burials in Mt. Zion Cemetery. A couple may have strayed into Lincoln County.

Other Ingram line - Pike County, Illinois

There was another Ingram line in Pike County, Illinois with no known relationship to Samuel Ingram. (Pike County, Illinois is directly across the Mississippi River from Pike County, Missouri.) These were descendants of Isom L. Ingram who was born 12 Jun 1822 in Smith County, Tennessee; died 31 Mar 1878 in Pike County, Illinois; s/o Joshua P. Ingram (1802-1879). This group may have lived around Pittsfield. Some family, ancestors and relatives were in Brown County, Illinois.

Research Notes - Samuel Ingram

Following is the collection of research notes regarding Samuel Ingram and descendants. Virtually all the work was done by others, who hopefully are correctly credited.



Montgomery County, Virginia.  Will Book 1 pages 114, 115 and 116, August
1801.

In the Name of God, Amen.  I  Samuel Ingram of Montgomery County and State
of Virginia being weak in body but of perfect mind and memory, thanks be

Newbern (ska Newburn), Virginia in present-day Pulaski County.

"I found the Ingram cemetery in Newburn, Virginia.  I guess I'm the only
person to do so.  I found Samuel's land record, and traced the NE/SE
calls on the deed to map it out to the dimensions of a topographical
map of the area.  There's only one cemetery in the middle of it.
It's the "LaRue family cemetery".  The LaRue's bought the Ingram property
in the mid-1800's, and there are plenty of LaRue's buried there.  To the
side, there were some old stones piled up, and I went through them and
found pieces of tombstones.  I took some shaving cream and
with a straight edge piece of cardboard scraped across the stones to
reveal Ingram names.  Again I don't have my notes or pictures handy,
but did find Andrew Boyd, Mary Ingram - wife of Aaron Ingram (as it
said on the stone), as well as a few others, but no Samuel Ingram.
In the center of the cemetery are three identical stones still upright,
but you can't read them.  One appears to be William Ingram.  But the
other two were impossible to read."

~See correspondence with Leigh B. Terrell gfinge01.txt re: father of Samuel.

 The source that shows Samuel was the son
of John was a Will presented to the court on 28 Nov 1763 - Book 4, p 736.  I
got this info from the 'Ingram Family History,' by Mary Ruth Stultz p 170.
John Ingram, born circa 1690 died 1763 in the parish of Meherrin, Brunswick
County, VA.  John married Hannah Pines.  Children as named in his will:
1. Samuel
2. John
3. Joshua (Josh) deceased in 1763; son Jeremiah Ingram named in will.
4. James (given land on north side of the Meherrin joining that of George)
5. George (given 1,070 acres of land)
6. Jesse (given land in Granville County, NC) (see passports in GA)
7. Richard (given land in Lunenburg County)
8. Benjamin (land in Lunenburg County)
9. Joseph (received the manor plantation)
10. Elizabeth (daughter married a (?)Vaughn)
11. Tabitha (daughter married a (?)Gee)

That the above Samuel is "our" Samuel who died 1799/1801 at
Montgomery Co., VA is, INMHO, speculative.  Need more evidence.

FS-AF Reports children of a John Ingram (1709-1763) AFN: 163H-XJX
and Hannah Pines which includes a Samuel.  Some people contend this
Samuel was the one (i.e "our" Samuel) who m. Ann Stewart.  However,
the AF shows him as b. "Abt 1751 Brunswick, Virginia"
 and died 1764 - which conflicts with documented information about
 "our" Samuel.  But I don't have any information as to what the source
 of the claim that Samuel s/o John/Hannah was born abt 1751 and died
 in 1764 is.  The 1751 birth date could not be "our" Samuel
 who would have to have been born est 1730/40 for the downstream
 stuff to work out.


========================================================================

FS-Ancestral File gives Samuel Sr. INGRAM (AFN: WR2T-K3); Birth: 1740 ,Cecil,MD; Death: Aug 1801: Birth place of Cecil Co., Maryland.

Note Chester Co. PA neighbors Cecil Co. MD
 - poss. connection with fam. of Ephraim Johnson who m. Rachel Ingram who appeared to be disinherited.

This is NOT the Samuel Ingram born 1 Aug 1755 or 1765, son of John.  Disproven:
There was a Samuel Ingram R5484 NC Line who was in the Revolutionary War and whose Rev. War Pension Application ("Abstracts of Rev. War Pension Files") states he 1) was born 1 Aug 1765 at Southampton Co. VA, 2) lived in Columbia SC for 40 years, 3) in 183
3 moved to Montgomery Co. Alabama and 4) where he applied for pension 18 June 1835. ... This could NOT be "our" Samuel because "our" Samuel: 1) had children born ca. 1760 and 2) died about 1799/1801 @ Montgomery Co. VIRGINIA as proven by will which names
children.  (I have not been able to prove birth dates of any children of "our" Samuel, but their estimated dates of ca. 1760 fit with proven dates of "our" Samuel's grandchildren.)

In 1780 our Samuel and his sons Jonathan and James were
tried for being Loyalists.
Samuel was found guilty and ordered to the Augusta jail for
further trial but the two sons volunteered to serve in the
American Army until December 31, 1781.
Per records of Michelle Thomas; I do not have further cite or information.
(This is one place where sons Jonathan and James were named;
Jonathan and James not named explicitly in will but filled in the
headcount number of sons stated in the will.)

in 1780 Samuel and his sons Jonathan and James were tried for being Loyalists. Samuel was found guilty and ordered to the Augusta jail for further trial but the two sons volunteered to serve in the American Army until December 31, 1781. I am not sure of the basis for Samuel's (Senior) service and inclusion in the DAR index. Montgomery Co. (VA) Will Book 1, p. 114 and 118. (Mentions some children including dau. Rachel whom he appears to disinherit.) ~Transcription GFINGD11 done by Michelle Thomas Death year from records of Michelle Thomas. AFN: WR2T-K3 FS-AF online gives birth year as 1740 and loc. as Cecil Co.,MD. This must be regarded as highly suspect. No other proof of the Cecil Co., MD connection known or found by me, although the 1740 birth year could fit. There is a Samuel Ingram of Easton, Northampton Co. PA b. abt 1727 who m. Jane McCullock abt 1753 had dau. Rachel 1754. FS-AF has separate AF records which show this family and Rachel as marrying Ephraim Johnson. Do not know if there is a connection. Relationship to Ebenezer Ingram who married 18 May 1785 at Montgomery Co., Virginia to Hannah Johnson needs to be explored. Based on Ebenezer's estimated birth year of 1763, he could have been a nephew. If he was a nephew, than info. from the "History o f Bell County, KY" by H. H. Fuson would seem to hint that Samuel could be the son of Bill Ingram who came to Kentucky in 1800 from North Carolina. ~See gfinga17.gdo ~----------------------------------------------- FS-AF Reports children of a John Ingram (1709-1763) AFN: 163H-XJX and Hannah Pines which includes a Samuel.

Samuel and Anne were in Hampshire Co. Va by 1766 when they sold 260 acres on Hughes Run in Hampshire Co., Va (Now W VA). This land was obtained in 1762 from Henry Oldacre and his wife Elinor. Samuel was Yeoman of Hampshire when he received the land. According to a book written by Mary B. Kegley, Samuel Ingram, Sr. first appeared on the waters of the New River in 1767 when he settled on a tract of 300 acres of land on Bullock Pen Branch near the present town of Newbern. In 1769 he purchased the John Miller-John Strupw tract of land on Peak Creek, and in addition had a tract of 209 acres on Sinking Spring "by ye Great road" surveyed by William Preston for the Loyal Company. This tract was held jointly with Adam Waggoner. Two days later, on March 18, 1769. a survey was made for Ingram alone for a tract of 210 acres on Peak Creek, adjoining James Walker. The grant for 300 acres was received in 1785. Beginning withthis 300 acres Ingram built up his plantation by adding three additional tract, finalizing the total in an inclusive survey of 634 acres in the year 1796. The grant was received the next year (Botetourt County Deed Book 1, p. 16; Commissioner's Certificates p 34) In 1770 Samuel Ingram was granted permission to build his mill and a jury was appointed to adjudge damages and report. His mill was one of the earliest in the area. In 1771 Ingram acted as a surveyor of aroad from Ingles' to Peak Creek, and in 1776 was overseer of the road from Sinking Spring to Peak Creek. In 1774 the Montgomery County Court ordered that it be certified to the Governor of Virginia that Samuel Ingram had produced 1,600 pounds of "neat winter rotted hemp" In 1774 Samuel had been compensated for "sundries" supplied to the county militia about the same time (July 1774) when he was one of the few families not to flee in panic during the Indian incursions of Lord Dunmore's War. Samuel and William Ingram served in the Revolutionary War as Privates in the Cherokee Expedition under Colonel William Christian in August, 1776. While a soldier fighting against the Indians, in an ambush, Samuel received a wound in his breast, whereby he was rendered incapable of getting a livelihood by labor and hath incurred considerable expense for a doctor's attendance, He stated "he ought to be allowed the sum of 30 pounds for his present relief, together with hold pay as a soldier for the term of 4 years and alsothe sum of 40 pounds to reimburse him the expense of a doctor". Samuel was appointed Overseer of Roads in Fincastle Co. Va. on 3 Sept 1776. Samuel's appointment reads "Samuel Ingram is appt'd overseer of therd. from the Sinking Spring to Peck Creek & that he with the usualhands keep the same in repair according to law" A newspaper announced in 1775 that Thomas Welsh, a 21-year-old Irish servant, had run away from Samuel Ingram and Joseph Mears about nine miles from "English" (Ingles) Ferry on the New River in Fincastle County. In 1775 Samuel produced in court an account of his expense to taking up his servant man, Thomas Walsh, when he ran away, and for the 26 days absent time. The court decided that Walsh was to serve his master one year and five months for his expenses, and fifty-two days for the twenty-six absent days, after his present time of indenture otherwise expired. Samuel and William Ingram are recorded as privates in an expedition carried out against the Cherokees under Colonel William Christian in August 1776. In 1784, Samuel and his wife Anne, both of Montgomery County, deeded 60 acres of forest on the New River to Robert Currin for 」300.3 For the purpose of evidence in a lawsuit, Samuel Ingram, Sr. vs. James McCorkle and Daniel Trigg, David Crouch filed a deposition of interest on May 30, 1789. He stated that in 1779 he was at the house of Samuel Ingram, Sr., when Ingram asked him to go to his smokehouseand "drink a dram;" once there Ingram lifted up "something like a beegum and took out a large bundle of counterfeit paper money" and asked Crouch what he thought of it. When asked what he intended to do with it, Ingram stated he planned to take a cart with some skins and furs and go "towards the Northward and try to traffic it off for something or other." Crouch advised him not to do that or he would be hanged and bring his family to scandal, but Ingram replied "it was as good as any, for it was all good for nothing." Crouch stated that the money was made on Ingram's platation and there appeared to be several more bundles of the same kind shown to him. Crouch heard that Ingram had passed some of the money to James Millar and when Sheriff Bell came, the money was returned. The money Ingram received in payment for land he sold to Captain James McCorkle, he offered to pass to Colonel William Ingles who disputed taking it but fimally accepted it as payment for the round glade tract of land that Colonel Ingles at Crockett's blacksmith shop. Note: Fincastle Co was formed in 1772 from Botetourt Co, VA, but extinguished in 1777, desolving into Kentucky, Washington, and Montgomery Counties. Apparently the Ingrams were in that part of Montgomery Co. that was to become Pulaski Co (1839) neighboring Wythe Co (1790) for, in 1802, a road proposed between New Dublin (Dublin inpresent Pulaski Co) and Fortchiswell (Fort Chiswell in Wythe Co) passed through the lands of Aaron and William Ingram, who werecompensated $1,358.75; The New River (mentioned subsequently) runs right through Pulaski Co. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 * Birth: ABT 1730 in VA * Note: Several sources give his birthdate as 1740, but the earlier date is provided by Betty Anne Lively Erickson and supported by James Barry Bingham in his book "Descendants of Jonas Ingram and Melinda Butler". 14 15 * Death: BET 1799 AND 1801 in Montgomery Co., VA * Note: Samuel signed and dated his last will and testament on 10 January1799, but he was still alive in February to consent to his daughter'smarriage. Nonetheless, he died before Aug 1801, when his will was probated in Montgomery Co., Va. In his will, Samuel specifies 6 sons and 4 daughters, but did not name them all individually. His widow was Anne. He devised to his sons Aaron and William all his lands, and Aaron was to pay his brother Samuel $100 and William was to suppor this mother Ann, and he was to have the dwelling house. In addition William was to pay his mother $100. When his estate was appraised in August, Josiah Bailor (or Baker), Joseph (or John) Russell, and Guy S. Trigg valued it at $1,736.53, which included one "negro man Jim" ($300), one "negro boy Tom" ($300), one "negro boy Kned" ($120),another "negro boy Joe" ($100), one "female negro child Elly & hers mother Jude" ($283.33), and one "negro boy Frank, a cripple of no value". Additionally, there were five three-year-old steers valued at $12 each, nine other steers, three heifers, a bull, six cows (with five calves), four horses (a gelding, a sorrel, a bay, and a grey), nine hogs, thirteen sheep, and a wagon and gear for four horses. Executers were John, Aaron and William Ingram. 14 16 17 Marriage 1 Anne STEWART b: ABT 1735 * Note: This is from a brief history written by Mary Gorham Ingram*, wife of James Stewart Ingram.

Samuel Ingram Death Date: 1799/1801 Death Place: Montgomery Co., Virginia Early Adventurers On The Western Water, Vol. II (1745-1800) by Mary B. Kegley p. 305; Samuel Ingram, Sr. first appeared on the waters of the New River in 1767 when he settled on a tract of 300 acres of land on Bullock Pen Branch near the present town of Newbern. In 1769 he purchased the John Miller-John Strupw tract of land on Peak Creek, and in addition had a tract of 209 acres on Sinking Spring "by ye Great road" surveyed by William Preston for the Loyal Company. This tract was held jointly with Adam Waggoner. Two days later, on March 18, 1769. a survey was made for Ingram alone for a tract of 210 acres on Peak Creek, adjoining James Walker. The grant for 300 acres was received in 1785. Beginning with this 300 acres Ingram built up his plantation by adding three additional tract, finalizing the total in an inclusive survey of 634 acres in the year 1796. The grant was received the next year (Botetourt County Deed Book 1, p. 16; Commissioner's Certificates, p. 34; Montgomery County Survey Book E, p.228; Preston Family Papers, Library of Congress, 581; Land Grant Books O, p. 182; 36, p.414). In 1770 Samuel Ingram was granted permission to build his mill and a jury was appointed to adjudge damages and report. His mill was one of the earliset in the area. In 1771 Ingram acted as a surveyor of a road from Ingles' to Peak Creek, and in 1776 was overseer of the road from Sinking Spring to Peak Creek. In 1774 the Montgomery County Court ordered that it be certified to the Governor of Virginia that Samuel Ingram had produced 1,600 pounds of "neat winter rotted hemp" Summers, Annals, pp. 74, 123, 621, 648). In the summer of 1774 when there was so much trouble with the Indians, the Ingrams were among the families who chose to remain at home while other neighbors went to a nearby fort. In 1775 Samuel produced in court an account of his expense to taking up his servant man, Thomas Walsh, when he ran away, and for the 26 days absent time. The court decided that Walsh was to serve his master one year and five months for his expenses, and fifty-two days for the twenty-six absent days, after his present time of indenture otherwise expired. (Preston Papers, Draper Mss., 3 QQ 54; Summers, Annals, p. 643). In 1775 Ingram purchased 80 acres formerly belonging to Frederick Shore. In 1780 he served on a jury and he was one of the appraisers of the estate of Eloner Snodgrass in 1793. Ingram sold tracts of land to Robert Currin in 1784, to Adam Hance 1787, and to Jonathan Ingram in 1796 (Summers, Annals, pp. 646, 743, 835, 915, 919, 928; Montgomery County Deed Books A, pp. 329, 476; B, p. 257). In 1780 Samuel Ingram and his sons Jonathan and James were tried for being Loyalists. Samuel was found guilty and was ordered to the Augusta jail for further trail, but the two sons volunteered to enlist in the American army until December 31, 1781. (Preston Papers, Draper Mss., QQ 68-72, 72-79). James Ingram must have been some what of a prankster, for he and John Reins were summoned to appear for "raising a false rumour and putting some of the inhabitants of the County into fear." The information files with the summons indicated that Reins and Ingram had just returned from duty on the frontier and in one place hung a blanket to a treetop and set a hat on it and remained by the roadside with guns ready to fire, and in one instance did fire their guns and hallooed like Indians in the night thus alarming the inhabitants. Captain Joseph Cloyed and Robert Evans were called as witnesses. (Montgomery County Loos Papers, April 1779, Virginia State library, Archives). For the purpose of evidence in a lawsuit, Samuel Ingram, Sr. vs. James McCorkle and Daniel Trigg, David Crouch filed a deposition of interest on May 30, 1789. He stated that in 1779 he was at the house of Samuel Ingram, Sr., when Ingram asked him to go to his smokedhouse and "drink a dram;" once there Ingram lifted up "something like a bee gum and took out a large bundle of counterfeit paper money" and asked Crouch what he thought of it. When asked what he intended to do with it, Ingram stated he planned to take a cart with some skins and furs and go "towards the Northward and try to traffic it off for something or other." Crouch advised him not to do that or he would be hanged and bring his family to scandal, but Ingram replied "it was as good as any, for it was all good for nothing." Crouch stated that the money was made on Ingram's platation and there appeared to be several more bundles of the same kind shown to him. Crouch heard that Ingram had passed some of the money to James Millar and when Sheriff Bell came, the money was returned. The money Ingram received in payment for land he sold to Captain James McCorkle, he offered to pass to Colonel William Ingles who disputed taking it but fimally accepted it as payment for the round glade tract of land that Colonel Ingles at Crockett's blacksmith shop. (Montgomery County Loose Papers, Virginia State Library, Archives). Samuel Ingram, Sr., wrote his will on January 17, 1799, and it was recorded in August 1801 (Montgomery County Will Book 1, p.114). He devised to his two sons Aaron and William all his lands, and Aaron was to pay his brother Samuel L100. William was to support his mother, whose name was Ann, and he was to have the dwelling house.

Great grandfather on the Ingram, Samuel Ingram was an Englishman and he married a Miss Stewart, a Scotch woman and had a son William and he married Miss Mary Curren and they had four children, Ann, Jemina, James S., Robert P.. Ann married Annaias Davidson; Jemina married Andrew Boyd, Robert P. married Lockie Hale, and James S. married Mary B.J. Gorham. James S. Ingram was born in 1802, April 4th. and was a son of William and Mary Ingram. Died Sept. 19th., 1878 was born in Montgomery Co. VA. He married Mary B. J. Gorham in 1830, Oct 28th. ***Mary Barbara Jane died July 17, 1899. She was born in Robinson Co. TN, June 24, 1814. -------------- Michele michelet@netscape.net ========================================================================== Following about the "other" Ingram's: Post-em Display Database: ingram1956 Individual: I76202 Hi there--I believe you have an error in your listing concerning the son of Charles and Mary of Northumberland. My research indicates that John Ingram who married Charity (Beaumont) (Waite) was born in Middlesex County and his will was probated in Brunswick County, Va in 1763. I believe that John, the son of your Charles Ingram, died in 1793, also in Brunswick County, VA. In his will he mentions his wife Patience who is named as John Ingram's husband in her father's will. ( Thomas Berry's will of Northumberland Co.) I believe that the Middlesex line of Ingram family and the Northumberland line are two separate lines completely. I think that the confusion rises because both lines seem to have settled in the same general area of Virginia and had numerous common names-- 1682--JOHN, SON OF SAMUEL & SARAH INGRAM BAPTIZED, MIDDLESEX COUNTY, VA 1712--JOHN INGRAM MARRIED TO MARY CROONY, MIDDLESEX COUNTY, VA 1717--JOHN INGRAM MARRIES CHARITY (BEAUMONT) (WAITE), MIDDLESEX COUNTY 1718--SAMUEL INGRAM BORN, SON OF JOHN INGRAM AND CHARITY, MIDDLESEX COUNTY, VA 1718--CHARITY INGRAM DIES, MIDDLESEX COUNTY, VA 1734--JOHN INGRAM, WIFE HANNAH, SON JOHN INGRAM JR. LEASE LAND FROM ALEXANDER SPOTSWOOD IN SPOTSYLVANIA COUNTY, VA 1740--JOHN INGRAM AND SAMUEL INGRAM, HIS SON, SELL LAND THEY OWN IN MIDDLESEX COUNTY, VA TO JOHN MORGAN. JOHN AND SAMUEL ARE LIVING IN ORANGE COUNTY VIRGINIA WHEN THEY MAKE THIS SALE. HE IS MENTIONED BRIEFLY IN HIS FATHER'S WILL BUT EITHER THEY WERE ON BA D TERMS OR JOHN SR. SEEMS TO FEEL SAMUEL HAS RECEIVED ENOUGH IN PAST YEARS.) 1750--JOHN INGRAM BUYS LAND LOCATED IN GRANVILLE, NC FROM JOHN ZACHERY, SR. (JOHN WILL LATER BEQUEATHS THIS LAND TO HIS SON JESSE IN HIS WILL OF 1762.) 1752--JOHN'S DAUGHTER, ELIZABETH INGRAM MARRIES REUBEN VAUGHAN (LUNENBURG COUNTY, VA--SO ELIZABETH BORN CIRCA 1732. (PER REUBEN VAUGHN KISS, SOLDIER OF THE CONFEDERACY, COPYRIGHT 1947, ALICE V.D. PIERREPONT) JOHN INGRAM BEQUEATHS PERSONAL ESTATE TO HIS DA UGHTER, ELIZABETH VAUGHAN IN HIS WILL OF 1762. ALSO IN THIS BOOK IT STATES THAT ELIZABETH WAS THE DAUGHTER OF JOHN INGRAM AND HANNAH PINES INGRAM. 1754--JOHN INGRAM SR BUYS LAND FROM DANIEL TAYLOR IN BRUNSWICK COUNTY, VA. HE LATER BEQUEATHS THIS LAND TO HIS SON GEORGE IN HIS WILL. 1760--JOHN INGRAM JR DIES WITH WILL, BRUNSWICK COUNTY, VA. HIS SON BENJAMIN IS OLD ENOUGH TO BE EXECUTOR SO BENJAMIN'S BIRTH DATE WOULD BE ABOUT 1739 AND JOHN'S BIRTH DATE WOULD BE 1719 OR BEFORE. (*NOT PROVEN BUT IT IS BELIEVED THAT THIS JOHN IS PROBABLY SON OF MARY CROONY WHO MARRIED JOHN INGRAM IN MIDDLESEX COUNTY IN 1712. POSSIBLY SON OF HANNAH PINES BUT IF HE IS ENTERING INTO LAND DEAL IN 1734 WITH FATHER THEN WOULD HAVE TO BE 21 YEARS OF AGE AT THAT TIME WHICH WOULD MAKE BIRTH DATE ABOUT 1713--BEFOR E MARRIAGE OF JOHN AND HANNAH PINES.) 1763--JOHN INGRAM, SR DIES IN BRUNSWICK COUNTY,VA. HE MENTIONS HIS WIFE HANNAH. HE MENTIONS SONS: SAMUEL, JOHN (DECEASED), JAMES, GEORGE, JESSE, JOSHUA, RICHARD, BENJAMIN, AND JOSEPH. HE MENTIONS DAUGHTER: ELIZABETH VAUGHAN AND TABITHA GEE. 1770--JAMES INGRAM DIES IN BRUNSWICK COUNTY, VA AND MENTIONS HIS WIFE ELIZABETH. IN ADDITION HE MENTIONS HIS BROTHERS: GEORGE, JOSHUA, RICHARD, BENJAMIN AND JOSEPH. HE ALSO MENTIONS HIS SISTER: TABITHA GEE. 1778--GIDION (SIC) MOON OF LUNENBURG DEEDS NEGROES TO HIS GRANDCHILDREN, NANCY INGRAM, JOSHUA INGRAM, AND MARY INGRAM OF LUNENBURG THAT "ARE NOW IN THE POSSESSION OF RICHARD INGRAM, THEIR FATHER" 1789--NANCY INGRAM, DAUGHTER OF RICHARD INGRAM, MARRIES JESSE MARSHALL ON JULY 9, 1789. BIRTH DATE FOR NANCY WOULD BE ABOUT 1769, BIRTH DATE FOR HER FATHER WOULD BE ABOUT 1749. THIS TIME FRAME IS PROVED AS ACTUALLY BEING 1765 PER THE PENSION TESTIMONY FOR NANCY (INGRAM) MARSHALL WHEN SHE APPLIES AS JESSE MARSHALL'S WIDOW. AS WITH ALL FAMILIES, OF COURSE, EVENTUALLY THE LINES BECOME ALMOST BLURRED AS THE YEARS GO BY--BUT THE RECORDS GET BETTER. I AM NOT A DESCENDANT OF THE INGRAMS BUT HAVE DONE THE RESEARCH IN RELATION TO CHARITY BEAUMONT WHO MARRIED A RICHARD WAITE IN MIDDLESEX COUNTY. SHE HAS ALWAYS BEEN A "THORN" IN OUR SIDE AND I WAS HOPING TO ONE DAY FIGURE OUT IF THE RICHARD WAITE THAT SHE MARRIED WAS "OUR" LINE OF WAITES. Will be glad to correspond with any questions or comments. Thanks, Ginger

Prob. the Jonathan Ingram who went to Wayne Co. KY in 1796 from the following.  If so, the James Ingram mentioned was his brother:

From intro. to KY USGenWeb page, Wayne Co. KY, JAN 2001:

Pioneer Long Hunters visited what was to become Wayne County in 1770
and established a camp near Mill Springs, a few miles north of today's
county seat, Monticello. In 1775 Benjamin PRICE built a cabin and
established a camp near Mill Springs. PRICE'S STATION was one of
Kentucky's first permanent settlements. Many settlers in the county
had participated in the Revolutionary War.  Joshua JONES, one of the
most prominent first settlers, came in 1794; Jonathan and James
INGRAM in 1796; Cornelious PHILLIPS in 1798; and Isaac WEST,
James SIMPSON, Nicholas LLOYD and Henry GARDNER in 1799. Between 1800
and 1810 a large number of families arrived.
