DAVID T. MADDOX

b. 1804

 

[DNA Kit 106154]

 

One of the descendants of immigrant Alexander Maddux was Zachariah b.c. 1746 Somerset Co., MD, and d. 1825 Gwinnett Co., GA.  He had two sons, Tally and Alexander, who d. Laurens Co., GA;  and a son Benjamin Wills who d. Walker Co., GA.  A fourth son was Spencer b. 1778 who apparently has not yet been researched. 

 

This Spencer was not the one in the 1840 census of Somerset Co., MD, or the one in Baltimore, MD, the same year, both of who were “free colored” and age 36-55. Georgia Spencer was in the 1794 and 1796 tax lists of Hancock Co., GA, and married Elizabeth Trammell in Columbia Co., GA 1799.   He was in the 1820 census of Putnam Co., GA, over age 45, and the 1830 census of Butts Co., GA, age 50-59 (b. 1771-1780).  Wife E[lizabeth] was in the 1840 census of Butts Co., age 60-69, and in the 1850 census age 65.

 

However, David’s father may have been Jesse, also in the 1794 and 1796 tax lists of Hancock Co., GA, near Spencer.  He was also in the 1820 census of Putnam Co., GA, living next to Spencer; and in the 1830 census of Butts Co. four pages apart.  Jesse was older than Spencer, being 60-69 in 1830, so born 1761-1770.  A Jesse Maddox married Mary Lucinda Gibson in 1825 Wilkinson Co., GA, Rainey Ussery in 1828 Jones Co., GA, and Martha E. Jones in 1837 Bibb Co., GA.  David did name a son Ira H, and there was an Ira H. age 20-29(b. 1791-1800)  living next door to Jesse in 1830 Butts Co., GA. 

 

Even though Spencer, son of Zachariah of Somerset Co., MD, is not listed with a brother Jesse, it looks like in GA records that they were brothers.  Was Ira H. David’s brother or his cousin? Green B. who lived three houses from David in 1850 and 1860 Butts Co., GA, was probably David’s brother.   Results of a DNA test for David’s line should help solidify speculations.
