Biography:
|
A Joyce family historian, who enjoys finding long lost cousins around the USA. Montgomery County has had a branch of my family up until at least 1997, when Gerald L. Joyce passed at age 80. Could there still be others there?
Noah Joyce died in Rockingham Co., NC in 1851. Soon after that his widow Nancy (Price) Joyce and her 3 sons, Drury, Alexander, Robert and step son John, moved to Montgomery Co., IL. Through census and cemetery records I have been able to trace descendants up into the last decade - I'm hoping there are still a few around.
Noah was a brother to my 3rd great grandfather, Mary Dodd Joyce (John's Mom) is a sister to my 4th great grandmother, and Nancy Price Joyce is also a sister to another of my 4th great grandmother's - so all of Noah's boys are double cousins to me.
Anybody out there?
