TYREE FAMILY LISTS begin to coalesce, beginning in the earliest settlements of Virginia. The lists
are put together from many brief records. Originally such record keeping was through the Settlement
Company, then through distant Mother England or its outposts. This last probably paved the way for
Virginia’s Independent City records -- there have been some 35 of these over the years. As the task
of parceling out the infinity of western territory loomed, Virginia established the English County system
in 1634, adding to the already functioning Elizabeth City and Northampton County, 6 new Counties;
each County Court House site was to have a recording court house, a jail and sometimes a Church
(as is Charles City County Court House even today; though most of these became nucleuses of future
towns). The population burgeoned; the new Counties divided, making more Counties.
Vital statistics were first assigned to the State Church Parishes; these included not only births and
deaths but also tax recordings and public expenditures. After the Toleration Act of 1699 recognized
Presbyterians (who kept their own records), and later Baptists (who were poor record keepers), the
State Church became lax. In 1763 the Burgesses reduced its ministers’ stipends; and they became
even less active record keepers. After the Revolutionary War and the loss of the State Church (it was
officially closed in 1786), personal taxes became the responsibility of the State; and attempts were
made at censuses. In the 1783 Confederation of the States a Federal Census was mandated -- the
first being for 1790. The Virginia Census of 1790 was destroyed when the British burned Washington
in the War of 1812; the Virginia Census of 1800 was also lost. It took several other catastrophic
losses before the U.S. instituted the system of Regional Archives; 11 sites in the U.S. were
established where national records are now stored in duplication.

YORK COUNTY -- formed 1634 an original shire (or county). This was first known as Charles River
County; but the name was changed to avoid confusion with Charles City County. The 1634
boundaries of Charles River County were limitless to the west and ran north from the Chickhominy
River to the Potomac River.
....
1659 the Court of York Co., ordered Dickerson to make payment of 50 pounds of tobacco to Edward
Wade and Alexander Tyree for viewing “ye fence” in a difference between her and William Musgrove

....
Dr. James Tyree was serving York County in 1755; several patient charge agreements are recorded
in the Upper Parish Register then covering Nansemond Co. Oct. 2, 1758 Dr. James Tyrie made claim
on a servant, William Hawkins, who enlisted on that date in the Royal American Regiment (?for the
3
French and Indian War); the Doctor was awarded 4.10.1 on Oct. 4, 1758 for the loss of his servant
(probably time due on an indenture contract).

James Tyree (Wm. Mitchell his guardian Aug. 17, 1772) put himself apprentice to Edmund
Dickenson in Williamsburg as cabinet maker (5 year service); 1785 Francis Hern a free
mulatto put himself apprentice to James Tyree cabinet maker. James died with will 1786; widow
was Diana; in 1786 tax Diana had 2 blacks over 16, 3 blacks under 16, 2 horses, 1 cattle. Dec. 7,

CHARLES CITY COUNTY -- formed 1634 an original shire (or county). The 1634 boundaries of this
County ran from James Cittie County to a limitless south-western horizon.
....
The following family was in close to the immigrant center on the shore of the James River, holding
land on the Chickahominy River, progenitors of OUR W. V. Tyrees(a very complete listing, carried
separately rather than having it mixed through the regions into which the family members moved).

Beginning of OUR W. V. TYREES -Oct. 5, 1726 William Tyree (grandfather to OUR immigrant William Tyree) took 550A from Isaac
Williams for 100 pounds in Westover Parish, Charles City, Co.,Va., bounded by western branch of
Ware Cut, Halie's Corner, Philip's Line, Hawks' Nest Cut, Mayser's Creek, with all houses; among
witnesses Edward Cooke.
Feb. 1, 1727 he took 150A with all houses from Thomas Spraggins, where John Grice now dwells, on
west side of Chickahominy River for 44 pounds; among witnesses Francis Tyree.
Nov. 19, 1728 Francis Tyree took 2A mill site Charles City, Co., Va. from Bates for 30 pounds (Francis
was the "friend" who finally handled William's estate after he died 1740).
Sept. 17, 1729 recorded in Charles City County, undated deed in which William Tyree takes 225A
(escheated from William Armiger, dec'd) known as "The Brick House Tract", beg. on the
Chickahominy River in the mouth of the shipyard bottom; to Pease Hill Road, to main watercourse of
Pease Hill S.W.; to Col. David Bray's line near below the Brick House path; near a cove next above
the Bay Spring. The Brick House was described as having two rooms up and two rooms down. This
type of brick cover "to be established on high land from marsh to marsh" had been requested since
1680 for tobacco warehouses; the most noted one was on the York River opposite West Point.
William Tyree died; his will was presented by Francis Tyree "friend" 1740: it was proved by John
Dancy; Francis Tyree was the executor. Francis then took on the care of desc'd William's estate.
Francis m. Mary, the widow of Edward Cooke, Sr. who had died 1736; Francis and Mary had at least 3
children: Francis Tyree, Jr., Mary Tyree and Susannah Tyree. Francis Tyree d., his will, probated
April 3, 1754 left all his property to the charge of his wife, Mary Cooke Tyree (as a Cooke she had
4
lived among the big Charles County land owners, was probably very capable, and wisely used her son
Francis Tyree, Jr. in negotiations on the William Tyree estate).
THEN, apparently, someone in the line of legal inheritance appeared in Charles City County. On
June 2, 1756 William Tyree sued Mary Tyree, widow of Edward Cooke, Sr. and Francis Tyree, Sr. for
use of his land; and the Court of Charles City County ordered that she pay 22 pounds 12 shillings and
8 pence current money for 14 years rent of 300A of land left to him. This was to be paid out of the
estate of Francis Tyree desc'd; with costs.

A William Tyree worked in a clerical capacity at the Charles City Court House before 1760 (?). Some
William Tyree (obviously too old to be OUR immigrant of 1760) was appointed constable July 2, 1755
in the room of Thomas Ballard; June 4, 1760 William resigned the office as constable and was
ordered to appear in court 1761 for debt. Oct. 17, 1761 a promisory note of Charles City County in
which William Tyree promises to pay Nathaniel Maynard 7 pounds on or before Nov. 1 next, signed
Will Tyree; then Nov. 19, 1763 the sheriff is commanded to take and safely keep William Tyree to
answer Nathaniel Maynard, from Dec. Court loose papers. June 9, 1763 William Armistead was
William Tyree's bail for debt against Thurmond Southall (from Loose papers, box 11-82). June 13,
1764 Johnson and Wyatt against William Tyree (from Loose Papers).
AND, who are these Tyrees? July 6, 1762 petition against Thomas Tyree and B. Williams by David
Jackson is dismissed. Nov. Court of 1762 Catherine Tyree is presented for having a bastard child.
FINALLY, heir to desc'd William, a "grandson" (OUR ancestor), appeared in Charles City County in
the April Court of 1760. He was identified as William Tyree "feoffment" (word then used to identify
owners of property who had not yet taken possession); and was indentured at that time (possibly as
an innkeeper) to Francis Dancy, neighbor to old William Tyree's holdings.
In the following years, the charge of the "William Tyree estate" seems to have passed wholly to
Francis Tyree, Jr., but Francis, Jr.'s will was dated Nov. 1, 1767 and in it he left everything to his
mother.
Oct 4, 1769 William Tyree charges the administrators of Mary Tyree's will, her Tyree daughters and
their husbands: Benjamin Goodrich and Mary Tyree his wife (they were m. 1763 with Wm. Dancy and
Francis Tyree as witnesses), and Edward Finch and Susannah Tyree his wife, to show cause why the
will of Francis Tyree, Jr. should not be recorded. Obviously Mary Tyree too had died.
1770 (our?) William sold 155A to Abram Brown for 96 pounds (probably allotted him on the death of
Francis Tyree who had been controlling William’s property) with the financial participation of John
Wayles and with William's wife, Sarah, waiving her dower, June 6, 1770.
By 1773 the bulk of William's inheritance had made a long journey, passing from the hands of Francis
Tyree, Sr. to Francis Tyree, Jr.; then on Francis, Jr.'s death to his mother Mary Tyree (who, as the
widow of Edward Cooke before she married Tyree, had Cooke children and was assisted by them).
When Mary died, soon thereafter the acting son, Littlebury Cooke, died; and the property rested briefly
with Littlebury's widow named Rebecca Hubbard (m. before 1750 to Henry Soane; as widow m. before
1754 to Col. Littlebury Cocke) Soane Cooke. Rebecca was then desirous of marrying again to a man
named James Bray Johnson. According to the law at that time, all property that a wife brought to a
marriage passed to her husband; so Rebecca Hubbard Cooke filed a listing of William Tyree's due
inheritance of the 217A "Westbury", naming his 16 slaves; she also made a public statement that
none of this was to become the property of James Bray Johnson. Shortly after that, the property
seems to have finally passed into William Tyree's control. (Strangely, Rebecca's own will of 1792/3
leaves her grand daughter, Elizabeth Bray Tyler a 340A property in Charles City County named
"Westbury".)
Dec. 1, 1773 William Tyree sells a slave "Will" to Amos and Alan Ladd for 50 pounds.

1782 tax list of Charles City County, William Tyree is charged with 219A, 16 slaves, 14 cows and 5
horses, also he is charged with one tithable beside himself (a boy over 16, named William).
July 25, 1783 William Tyree, Jr. promissory note: I promise to pay or cause to be paid unto John
Marston, Jr. 24 pounds officers' or soldiers' certificates, such as was granted to him for their pay
money due them from the State of Virginia, on demand. Signed, William Tyree, Jr. Testator, Wyatt
Walker. (Chas, City Co., Loose Papers)
1783 tax list of Charles City County charges Amos Ladd with the 219A "lately charged to William
Tyree".
1785 William Tyree was on the tax rolls of New Kent County showing 9 slaves, 5 of them with names
of those listed by Rebecca Hubbard Cooke in 1773; he also showed a wife and 3 younger sons
(because of the time between William Tyree, Jr. and these last 3 boys, it could have been a 2nd wife);
and he is charged with a billiard license, usually issued to a tavern or inn.

The above legal records have been used to create the following family list. The Chapter on Our
Tyrees is a continuation from these records.
William Tyree (#1, first known American in OUR Tyree branch), will c. 1740.
Unknown son
William Tyree, (?immigrant) heir of his grandfather William Tyree.
William Tyree, Jr. appears in James City County as an independent tither with l slave,
1 horse and 5 cows on the 1787 tax. Later he seems to have moved to New Kent
County, b.c. 1766.
Francis Tyree's name appeared on his father's tithe list 1790; b. c. 1774.

Richard F. Tyree's name appeared on his father's tithe list 1791; b. c. 1775; this is OUR
Ancestor who went to West Virginia (his descendants are kept in the OUR W. V. TYREES
file) Richard F. Tyree was on a list of young boys for whom Northampton County took
responsiblity c. 1781 -- were they evacuated as Lafayette's army swept down the peninsula?
John Tyree's name appeared on his father's tithe list 1793; b. c. 1777.
(Since the immigrating heir William sold his Charles City County property to the Ladd family, it might
be useful to have this brief list on the Ladds:
John Ladd
James Ladd (with following sons)
Amos Ladd
Thomas Ladd
5 daughters)
Francis Tyree (“friend” in the will of the above immigrant, William Tyree) bought 2A on the west
side of Chickahominy River at the head of Pease Hill Creek, one on south side and one on north
side of creek with a mill, from Isaac Bates, given said Bates by his father, John Bates, with all
houses, among witnesses William Tyree, recorded March 5, 1728. This Francis Tyree served as
executor of William Tyree's (see #1) will c. 1740 and took over maintenance of William's property.
Francis Tyree married Mary Cocke (or Cooke), a widow of Edward Cooke, Sr. as of 1737. Francis
died 1754.
Edward Cocke (or Cooke wherever there is a Cocke)

Littlebury Cocke m. Rebecca Hubbard Soane (widow 1750 of Henry Soane). In 1773
Littlebury Cooke ran a newspaper ad offering "Brick House Tract" for sale, which the ad
said he had inherited from his mother, Mary Tyree. Rebecca Cocke, who received control of the
William Tyree inheritance in 1773 (after death of Francis Tyree, Sr., Francis Tyree, Jr., Mary
Tyree, Littlebury Cocke), filed notice that the inheritance would not become the property of James
Bray Johnson when their proposed marriage took place. Rebecca’s will of 1792 left “Westbury”
and 340A in Charles City Co. to granddaughter Elizabeth Bray Tayler; the 340A devised to
Rebecca by her mother (mother-in-law?), Mary Tyree.

HENRICO COUNTY -- formed 1634 an original shire (or county). This was the isolated , inland
County , not on the Tidewater at all; but many settlers found their way into its low (in some instances
swampy) areas through the back door of the York River, James River and Chickahominy.
....
The very lengthy Tyree tenure, of Davids, Daniels, Benjamins, Richards, and Williams that was
spotlighted here over some 80 years, moved in 1720 to Hanover County (Hmm, the year Hanover
was created; maybe the County line just changed); although the family also spread into York, New

NEW KENT COUNTY -- was not an original County; it was formed 1654 from York County. The
infinity of York County was reduced when the very northern area became a rather tentative
Northumberland County as early as 1648 and New Kent County was created as a closer infinity to play
a prominent roll beyond Tidewater development. These recordings illustrate the hypotheses that can
be made from better records. However even these Civil records are spotty; the New Kent Court
House was torched in 1768 (the arsonist was hanged); and again in 1865 by Union forces in the Civil
War; but Census/tax records are fair and Parish records are good. New Kent and its offspring KING
AND QUEEN CO. of 1691 and KING WILLIAM CO. of 1702 are known as the “Burn Counties”.

....
Blissland Parish Register c. 1760 (eastern New Kent; more in western New Kent’s St. Peter’s Parish):
Several Tyrees were listed in Blissland Parish (eastern New Kent) as caretakers of others. For
instance in 1729, Benjamin Tyree was assigned to take and teach James Curnute to knit and
weave (for 400 pounds of tobacco per year); the arrangement did not work out (Benjamin actually
received 67 pounds for 2 months); Curnute was removed from William’s care and apprenticed to
Richard Maples, a taylor. Some Benjamin Tyree was assigned to keep Sarah Tyree's
children from 1746-1749.
Lucy Tyree, the orphan of Roger Tyree, stayed off and on with many caretakers; she died in her 11th
year, Oct., 1772.
For the church wardens for keeping Isaac Tyree, 700 (?tobacco).
Some William Tyree often made coffins on church order.
To James Tyree 11-10-1764 his acct. for boarding Walter Rawleigh & his prentices 71 days while
working on the Upper Church: 2.10.0. Also, for wheat, bricks & lime for Upper Church: 0.7.0. Also, to
James Tyree for keeping John, Son of Daniel Stewart, from 1762 to this time: 800 (?tobacco).
Of the Tyrees listed in the Parish register (Benjamin, Sarah, Lucy, Roger, James, Isaac and
William), perhaps the most intriguing caretaking experience was to go to William. Details of the
Parish story have been augmented here from other sources; it all began in 1727 when Samuel Curle
rented the Parish Glebe for 400 pounds of tobacco for one year. He was allowed to keep “needy
parishioners” there. In the year 1742 (at least) he was forgiven the rent (? for his services), although
his own family members provided many of the "needy". Richard Creed Curle had an infirmity and
11
Blissland Parish had to subsidize him for years. Jemima Curle, the widow of Jeremiah Curle, was
allowed to receive pay for cleaning the Church; she was eventually given the title of Sextoness. But
Jemima had a son, William, who had to be "kept" and "dressed" (noted in 1758). In 1758 Jemima's
daughter, Rebecca, was “kept” -- under Church sponsorship -- by her Uncle Richard. In 1767 a coffin
was provided by the Church for Jemima Curle's child (? William). In 1771 a donation was taken up for
Jemima Curle (? as Sextoness). In 1780 Ann Curle, the daughter of the widow Susannah, was
maintained by the Church. In 1784 Jemima Curle was being paid to maintain others. Also in 1784 the
orphan, William Raleigh, was being maintained by Samuel Curle -- the male head of the household
where Jemima held court. During these struggles, Nov. 29, 1773, William Tyree was paid to keep and
maintain Richard Curle, Jr., the orphan of Richard Curle deceased; later this became a permanent
placement (did Richard Curle take the name of Tyree ? asks RESEARCHER Preston Tyree).

Ballard b. 5-10-1747, d. New Kent County 9-7-1806. James has been listed as serving during
the Revolutionary War as a Lt., it is also claimed that he owned the Tyree Plantation in New Kent
County where Lafayette made a stop (6-28-1781 thru 7-5-1781) with his forces as he pursued
Cornwallis to Yorktown (since one William Tyree presented the American government with a bill
for Lafayette's stay at the Tyree Plantation, can it be assumed that James' father was William?)
(extant verbiage of the bill, from Virginia Public Records claims, reads -- “(torn) Tyree for 61 3/4
bushels oats, 30 bushels (torn), damages done his plantation in destroying (torn) houses and corn
field, dieting 12 men once, pasturing cattle and horses, use of his cart and one hand 2 days; use of
his house one night, 205 bundles fodder, necessaries found, 21 1/2 bu corn, 71 pounds beef, 94
pounds salt port, 212 pounds beef, 30 gal brandy, 5 bu rye, the use of his house 8 days, for Marquis
De Lafayette and his family and finding 8 suppers for his aids, 8 nights lodging for the aids, candles
found for the aids, storing public arms, stabalage and fodder for waggons-horses, dieting the
waggoner, cask for brandy, one coffin found for a Continl. soldier: 94pounds and 13 and 1.” Yet
another claim “William Tyree for 60 bundles fodder, 87 bu corn, 1000pounds fodder, damages done
his plantation by destroying corn, peas, potatoes, cotton and fencing, 1 frying pan not returned, 15
days use of his house and 1 bed: 124 pounds and 6 and 4”.) In New Kent tax records, James is
listed as holding 150A, 1 dwelling and 4 out-buildings; this began to be referred to as the "James
Estate" as early as 1782 although James did not die until 1785 (maybe he was incapacitated?)
when he left this estate to his son Francis; probate of 1786 names w. Matilda (of the Ballards of
Powhatan Co.?).

County. Is it possible the illusive William Tyree should fit here?)

The following suggests a mixup could easily be made with the above (and for the descendents
obviously has been). It seems the 1st James Tyree was heir to William Tyree of the Tyree Plantation;

THE FIRST WEST -- just up the James River but above the fall line. The fall line is at
Richmond for the James, at Fredericksburg for the Rappahannock, at Washington D.C. for the
Potomac. This drop (or rise if one is going upstream) made the River impassable to convenient
boat travel. The westward journey was only for the more hardy overland trekkers; but their numbers
grew rapidly. To accommodate their record keeping, new counties were constantly being formed in
the rather limitless West of the original counties. Thus it is possible for a man’s name to move from
county list to county list while the man lived his whole life in one spot.
The first gathering of merchants and markets began to form at the Falls of the James River. A county
was hastily marked off and named (now “Old”) Rappahannock; but it did not serve the purposes of the
burgeoning town and was abolished in 1692 when Richmond became independent as its own record
keeper. The counties, however, continue to best supply information on Tyree farmers.

JAMES CITY COUNTY and YORK were pretty well blocked off from any open West by other counties.

NEW KENT COUNTY spawned KING AND QUEEN COUNTY in 1691 which in turn spawned KING
WILLIAM IN 1701 and also SPOTSYLVANIA 1720. In 1716 Virginia’s Governor Alexander
Spotswood led an expedition over the mountains and returned to make known the rich valley beyond;
a flood of immigrants followed. The Valley was a life-saver for southern tobacco farmers; their
principal, saleable crop had drained their first land of nutrients and they were forced to move on. So,
with many new deeds, KING WILLIAM spawned CAROLINE in 1727 and SPOTSYLVANIA spawned
ORANGE IN 1734., which in turn spawned FREDERICK in 1738. But back to NEW KENT -- it also
spawned HANOVER IN 1720 which in turn spawned LOUISA IN 1742.
....
The following names were found in HANOVER COUNTY records -- where many settlers had found,
early-on, their way into this inland area through the back door of the York River, its small tributaries
and swamps (they were strung together to match the circumstances of their placement):

1720 David Tyree (b.1710, d. 1760 says RESEARCHER Denise Newton Monroe; E-mail
(denjim@primenet.com) and Michael Satterwhite, young tithers from Half Sink, a plantation in New
Kent County, St. Paul’s Parish, were called to clear roads in York County. Their families were said
to have moved at the same time to Hanover County; several Tyree sons were to bear the given
name of Satterwhite over the years. In 1731, David “a weaver of Winston Mill Swamp” bought from
James Anthony land in Hanover County, St. Paul’s Parish, known as Graham’s, on south side of
Totoponomy River, next to Winston Mill Swamp. In 1732 David bought from Henry Stokes the fork
between the Chickahominy and Upham Brook; the 1036A had been sold to Henry 4-23-1681 by
Mrs. Francis Izard. In 1734 David Tyree, “father”, was witness to land sale to Richard Tyree, St.
Paul's Parish.
Aug. 1, 1747 David Tyree bought 200A in Henrico County from Henry Stokes on north side of
Upham Brook, a branch of the Chickahominy Swamp. In 1759 Elizabeth given support for son 5: St.
Paul’s Parish. In 1763 David’s widow, Elizabeth, was given land; she processed land in 1764.
Richard Tyree of James City County with his wife Mary bought 200A in Hanover County, St.
Peter’s Parish in 1734. On Jan. 4, 1734 Richard Tyree of St. Peter’s Parish, New Kent County,
took land sold by Samuel (X) Ruther of St. Paul’s Parish, precinct #5, James City Co. In 1734
Daniel Tyree was witness on land sale to Richard Tyree, St. Paul’s Parish (witness a brother?
more likely an uncle? -- but does the use of the name Daniel Tyree suggest a relationship with the
Daniel Tyree imported to Charles City County by Major Abraham Wood in 1663? -- see Chap. II,
p. 5). On 9-10-1755 Richard Tyree took 509A, 225 of them formerly granted Thomas Rolfe, 204
never before granted.
James Tyree b.c. 1725 Henrico, bought, Aug. 3, 1752, 113A on branches of Chickahominy
Swamp from David Whitlock, adjacent to his father’s 200A. James sold his share of 113A
inheritance to his bro., William of Henrico County, Aug. 31, 1767 and moved to Blissland Parish.
The 1767 sale was witnessed by Izard Bacon and N. Wilkinson. Some years later (1797) Jones
Tyree made deposition (answering questions about the boundary of subject property) that he lived
with Izard Bacon 1790-1791 and said he remembered a marked oak no longer standing.
Francis Tyree was listed 1787 Blissland Parish as son of James; he. d. 1809 Blissland Parish
(see New Kent County on p. 11).
William Tyree bought 113A from David Whitlock, being 1/4 of 454A that David Whitlock had
purchased from Wm. Bacon. William inherited his father’s 200A, which he sold (his wife Elizabeth
releasing her dower) Oct. 2, 1752 to Edmond Bosman. Oct. 2, 1752 Elizabeth Tyree, wife of
William, relinquished her right to dower on 200A in Henrico County on north side of Upham Brook.

1725 Benjamin Tyre of Blissland Parish, Hanover Co., contracted to teach James Curnute to knit
and weave “@ 400 of tobb per yeare”. The venture was unsuccessful, Benjamin kept James Curnut
for only two months, for which he received 67 (?tobb). He later served his parish by keeping
children (one at a time) in his home: 2 were Robert and Lucy, orphans of Sarah Tyrie.
David Tyree in 1784 transfers 200A to his daughter-in-law, Sarah Richardson, land left her by her
father, John Richardson who died in Cumberland County in 1753. In 1784 David Tyree’s will
leaves land to sons Samuel (who sells to his share to his brother Benjamin) and Benjamin. Nov.
7, 1785 Henrico County: David Whitlock, executor of Benjamin Tyree, dec’d, agst. John Bowles
and Charles Britton debt; Benjamin Bowles undertakes for debts. May 4, 1786 legal pleas are
withdrawn; to be discharged by pmt. of 103 pounds 10 shillings with interest from Jan. 16, 1785.
Samuel Tyree sold his inherited land (Graham’s?) to bro. Benjamin in 1784.
Benjamin Tyree, m. Sarah 1763; in 1763 Benjamin Tyree was placed in St. Paul’s Precinct #17.
In 1784 Benjamin and wife Sarah bought 128A called Graham’s on s. Side of Totoponomy
Creek from James Anthony (this cross family purchase of Graham’s seems to verify the family
relationships). 1786 Benjamin Tyree’s will leaves 15 negroes and land on Totoponomy Creek to
his wife Sarah Richardson Tyree, dau. of John Richardson. In 1787 John Richardson, executor
to Benjamin Tyree, sold 128A “Grahams” in Hanover to Bobby Winston (of the adjacent
neighboring family during David’s early purchase of 1731). Sarah signed as widow of Benjamin,
saying she received the land through her dead husband 12-6-1784; she then went West with
some of her children and died 1813 in Scott County, Kentucky.

From nearby Middlesex: Thomas Tyree was m. 11-28-1738, Parish register of Christ’s Church, to

RESEARCHER VIRGINIA PRENGER: E-mail (Iprenger@cyberusa.com) wrote January 1997 for
information on a Thomas Tyree b.c. 1765 in Madison Co., Ky., who m. a wife Ann b. 1765 and had a
brother Benjamin. She also had in her file the Parish recording that Thomas Tyree m. Catherine
Jones 11-28-1738 in Middlesex Christ Church. I too had the Tyree-Jones marriage in my file, followed
by a Jones Tyree b. 1765 who had a son Jones Tyree, Jr. b. 1798 in Lexington, Ky. -- which at least
puts the Tyree-Jones descendants in Ky. with Virginia’s sought for Thomas. It’s a round about game
of supposing and not acceptable as genealogy but noting it here gets Virginia’s name and request in

ALSO, as a healthy contradiction or confirmation to above David, Joseph and Jones lines -- The huge
MUDD FAMILY genealogy crosses lines (at least at one point) with Tyree. In the 1980’s, Wm. Aubrey

Mudd, Jr., descendent of this cross, attempted to augment his connection and filed his work with the
Mormon Library, which offers it on a fische.
David Tyree in St. Paul’s Register 1709, called to clear road 1729 through St. Paul’s; he purchased
“Graham’s” lands of 124A from James Anthony (wife Elizabeth); he was on Hanover records 1732,
1742; his will in Hanover Co.1747.
William Tyree and wife Elizabeth sold 200A Henrico Co. 1752 to Borum; 1772 William sold to
Pettus.
James Tyree of Hanover sold 1767 to William Tyree of Hanover 1/2 tract of land (adjacent to land
of Wm. Tyree) which father David had purchased from David Whitlock.
Benjamin Tyree acquired 128A “Graham’s” from father David through his only executor, John
Richardson. Benjamin sold the 128A in 1784 through wife Sarah’s will of 1784 (Sarah was head
of the house with 9 whites as early as 1782). Also, 1772 Benjamin had bought land south side of
the Totopotomy from Samuel Tyree. Lands were purchased by William Bobby Winston.
Benjamin Minor lived 1784 with William Bobby Winston who sold Tyree Tract in 1786 to William
Whitlock.
Richardson Tyree was taxed in Hanover 1795.
Samuel Tyree sold his land to BenjaminTyree; after death of William Bobby Winston these lands
were purchased 1784 by the highest bidder.

Joseph Tyree b. 1766-1774, d. 1826-1827, of French descent, bought land Hanover County 1801
from Anderson (became 100A). In 1810 Census of Hanover he is listed with 3 males under 10, 1
male under 26 and himself under 45, 6 slaves. By 1810 he had also bought 151A from Taylor; this
251A became “Cherry Hill”; 1836 land list says “Joseph for life”. In 1839 a parcel of 254A went to
Benjamin and Joseph. In 1841 a land transfer was made to Benjamin, Joseph and William.

well after Joseph’s death when 91 1/4 A were held back until 1891 and then bought by the
Commonwealth as cemetery land). Joseph and Elizabeth sold “Woodstock” land in 1852. In the

And then there’s DUNMORE COUNTY. Dunmore was named for John Murray Dunmore who came
to the Colonies as a royal appointee. The Shenandoah area was created Dunmore County in 1772
from Frederick County; and the occupying Shawnee Indians were defeated in Lord Dunmore’s War in
1774, which opened the Ohio Valley for settlement. However, Lord Dunmore was in continual conflict
with the Colonial Assembly and, as the last Royal Governor of Virginia, he was forced to flee to an
offshore British warship when the American Revolution broke out in 1775. Dunmore returned to
England July 1776; and the large area he opened was renamed Shenandoah County in 1778. The
Dunmore name has long been forgotten; researchers who find it in old notations are left to wonder
where they are. Some of it is here:
During the Revolutionary War, Michael Reader's Company (in which Reader was Captain and
Major of the Militia of Dunmore County) lists William Tyree (he made 2nd Lt. 6-20-1781) and James
Price (he made 1st Lt. 6-19-1780). BIRD-SAMUEL PAPERS list William Tyree (the only Tyree) and
10 Price men of Dunmore County: Anger, Edward, Even, Meredith, Meredith, Jr., John, Thomas,
Zachrey, Sr., Zachery, Jr., and Phillip.
William Tyree was married in Greenbrier County 5-3-1776 by Rev. John Alderson, Jr. (Baptist) to
Elizabeth Prise (both bride and groom of Dunmore). On 6-25-1776 the same minister performed
the marriage of James Prise to Catherine Smith. The marriages are recorded on the same
record sheet. Was Elizabeth a sister to James?
Then a faceless notation says among Dunmore residents married in Greenbrier were:
William Tyree -- whose line traces to
John Tyree b. 1779
William A. Tyree b. 1811
Sarah Tyree b. 1860 in Bath County.

For insights into these PRINCE EDWARD COUNTY residents, refer back to the David/Daniel Tyrees
in the chapter on Earliest Tyree Immigrants. Now a second set of David/Daniel, etc. Tyrees emerges;
apparently in a continuation of their land business in Hanover and Henrico Counties. After this
temporary sojourn in Prince Edward County, Daniel left to go to Tennessee and David went to
Cumberland County.
….
1757 David Tyree bought 150A on Branches of Buffalo, Prince Edward Co.
David Tyree in Prince Edward Co., with 8 whites.
William Tyree in Prince Edward Co., 7 whites, 1 dwelling, 7 other buildings.
Daniel Tyree b. 1771, m. in Prince Edward Co., 1800 (con’t in Hempstead Co., Ark. records).
1772 David Tyree and Ann, his wife of Powhatan County.
1783 David of Powhatan buys 250A on Ft. Creek.
1785 David Tyree of Prince Edward Co.: 8 whites.
1788 Daniel Tyree is a witness for David Tyree in Prince Edward County.
1790 Daniel Tyree of Cumberland county
1793 Daniel Tyree takes a grant in Prince Edward for himself.
1799 Daniel Tyree and Sallie sell 207A in Prince Edward County.
1809 Daniel Tyree has Power of Atty. to sell 100A in Smith County, Tenn.
1830 Daniel Tyree m. Mary Houston, Green Co., Tenn.
(The mouth of the Buffalo at Norwood is now in Buckingham Co.)
David Tyree of the old Hanover family moved west c. 1783 when he, now "of Powhatan", bought
250A at Ft. Creek. At the last David will be found as "Rev." (does this mean Rev. War?) David Tyree,
whose will of 1823 Cumberland County was filed 1826.
In 1813 Cumberland County, David Tyree petitioned for his Revolutionary pension: "David Tyree
Sr., wounded in the leg at Guilford Court House battle; now old, little property, big family".
....
From Prince Edward County marriages 1754 - 1810:
David Tyree m. 4-29-1800 Betty Hill, dau. of John Hill who consents, Sur. Caleb Baldwin,
minister's return says Elizabeth Hill. David and Betty immigrated to Ark. 1817 where he is recorded as
Daniel Tyree.
....
1785 Prince Edward tax list: Wm. Tyree had 7 whites, 1 dwelling, 7 bldgs.
Virginia Military Records claim for Prince Edwards County these military appointments:
June 16, 1780 William Price, Jr. produced commission of 1st Lt.
June 19, 1780 Capt. Wm. Price, Jr.
Sept 20, 1780 William Tyree, 2nd Lt.
June 20, 1781 William Tyree, 2nd Lt.
Also in 2-8-1776 cash was paid to William Tyrie for gun furnished for public service of Prince
Edward County.

CAROL WHITEHEAD, E-mail (carolw1950@aol.com), wrote to Ted Tyree asking for information on a
Tyree family who had a daughter Ann Nancy who married Joel Fain; Ann and Joel had a son born
1769 in Prince Edward Co., Va. and then moved to Warren Co., N.C.

THE COMMERCIAL WEST -- profitable tobacco fields opened on up the James River when the
River began to be used for shipping a crop (using flat bottomed boats, with the placement of
locks, and with George Washington talking about a possible canal along the north bank). No
longer were settlers confined to subsistence farming; there was the promise of cash.
The huge COUNTY OF HENRICO provided the land; it allowed its great western expanse to become
GOOCHLAND COUNTY in 1727. Goochland sliced off its still great west to ALBEMARLE in 1744 and
reduced its still bloated size by cutting off CUMBERLAND in 1748 and CHESTERFIELD in 1749.
Albemarle withdrew itself to its northern area (in the great valley) and spawned BEDFORD 1753 to the
south of the James River; and to the north of the James River it spawned BUCKINGHAM 1758 and
AMHERST 1761. The first great activity followed the northern bank of the James where Amherst had
to spawn the COUNTY OF NELSON in 1807; however activity on the southern bank was never far
behind -- Bedford had spawned CAMPBELL COUNTY in 1781 and FRANKLIN COUNTY in 1785; and
the second tobacco city-center after Richmond, Lynchburg, situated itself in Campbell County on the
southern bank of the James after the 1800’s.
Also we can’t overlook the periferies where Cumberland County spawned POWHATAN in 1777;
Albemarle spawned FLUVANIA in 1777 and BUCKINGHAM spawned APPOMATTOX in 1845 (this is
getting ridiculously complex).

be a 2nd Catherine and from the Oakley Family).
Rhoda Oakley sells land in Cumberland Co., Va. Lists children Emily Tyree, Martha Tyree, Jno. Tyree
(name listed as John in deed index) and Marcus E. Miles (these were children and grandchildren of

POWHATAN COUNTY might have been the David’s family (with will of 1823 Cumberland Co.) home
at one time. At least a Court case of 5-7-1822 lists David and Satterwhite Tyree as joint defendants in
a law suit in which judgment of $355 was finally (5-16-1823) set against Satterwhite and one Pleasant
Farley. This too was found and sent in by RESEARCHER CHARLES L. TYREE, E-mail
(cltyree@nstar.net), (cltyree@juno.com).
….
Satterwhite Tyree and wife Rhoda sell their land in Powhatan Co. 1823 to David Tyree for $920.
David Tyree and wife Martha sold land to William Magruder, Powhatan Co., 1824; this was the land
sold by Satterwhite and Rhoda to David earlier; David received $725 for the land.
Satterwhite Tyree m. Rhoda Taylor in Powhatan Co., Va., 2-17-1813.
This may be the same David who was registered in Powhatan Co. 1772 with a wife Ann. Also the
David Tyree who was noted in Prince Edward Co., 1783-1785.
RESEARCHER SHEPHERD YOUNG TYREE liked to speculate that David’s first wife was a
Satterwhite -- thus the name of his “son”. There is a record in Cumberland County that David Tyree
m. a Martha Toney in 1797 and they lived on the land of her father, Edward Toney (his will is available
in Powhatan County). Hmm! -- A number of Toney’s moved into Raleigh and Fayette Counties, Va.
(became W.Va.) about the same time as Satterwhite Tyree. (an Edward Toney’s will appears in
W.Va. in 1797)
Joseph N.E. Tyree, orphan of Timothy Tyree, was indentured to Peter Talbot 1836 in Powhatan Co.
….
From Revolutionary War Records, POWHATAN COUNTY, William Tyree served V8c447 from
Nov. 28, 1776 to Feb. 28, 1777 as a private in Col. Josiah Parker's 5th Virginia Regiment -- John
Pleasant was his captain. Later William was a Sergeant in Col. Stubblefield's Regiment
38
(sometimes Col. Faulkner) when James Owen was his captain; this service beginning Apr. or
May, 1780. He has been confused with OUR William Tyree; OUR West Virginia "lebanty-lebenth"
cousin, Margaret Bannigan L'Engle, took a D.A.R. affiliation using him as antecedent (well both
Williams had wives named Sarah but their children were very different). He made a pension
application Aug. 28, 1832 from Smith County, Tennessee, application # W-6331, in which he
claimed he had been born in Powhatan County December 1752 and drafted into the army in
Prince Edward County Apr. or May, 1780. He then served 6 months as a wagon master. His
widow, Sarah, applied for his pension 1-19-1837 from Smith County, Tennessee, stating William
had died Sept. 30, 1833; that they had been married in Buckingham County, Virginia in 1773 or
1774 and had 7 or 8 children -- the “oldest being Flanders” who was born 3-19-1775. William was
pensioned on the West Tennessee Pension Rolls, certificate #7523 which was issued 4-20-1833
under Act of 1832 at $30 per annum. Sarah was pensioned on certificate #311 issued 5-1-1837
for the same $30 per annum. (More on this family in Smith County, Tennessee.)

The great tobacco fields of AMHERST COUNTY were cut off from Albemarle in 1761. The soil was
right, the river access was promising and prices were still affordable. A division into NELSON AND
AMHERST was necessary by 1801. So many Tyrees came to the burgeoning outpost, it is difficult to
straighten them all out. Using geography and family characteristics, the following have been tenetively
pulled together and are in need of more confirmations and adjusting.
….
William Tyree b. 1734, d. 1803 Amherst. April 14, 1773, Amherst Deed Bk. “D”, p. 8: Wm. Tyree
sells to Henderson McCaul, Deed of Trust, 24 pounds 3-3-5sh. to secure, where Wm. Tyree now
lives on Buffalo, stock; wits.: Wm. Wilson, Obediah Henderson, Thomas Wright. During the
Revolutionary War, John, Jacob, Zachariah and William Tyree served from Amherst County; (?the
John b. between 1750 & 1760, appt. 2-28-1777 to 6th Va. Reg. of Foot, pd. May, June, July 1777
under Samuel Jordan Cabell who marched his Company north where it was directed by Lt. Col.
James Hendricks; then John pd. Aug. - Oct. as part of Daniel Morgan’s Co.; Private John Tyree d.
10-21-1777 in hospital in Albany); and (?William and Zachariah “Tyra” were on a list of men who
marched north in 1776 from Amherst, now Nelson, through Albemarle, Fluvanna and Goochland to
44
Richmond to take charge of the artillery there); and (? Jacob Tyree, a Continental soldier, who died
in the Army 1782-1784). In July Court 1784 Amherst County: Affadavit made on motion on William
Tyree that said William was heir at law to John Tyree, a Continental soldier who died in service -Wm. Loving, D. Clerk; a survey made Nov. 19, 1773 of 180A on North Tye River was granted to
William July 20, 1780 at Richmond -- RESEARCHER MARGARET TYREE GREEN says this was
the government payout for killed soldier John Tyree. Also some William Tyree of Amherst was
listed as heir to Jacob Tyree “son of Jacob” who died in the service. The Va. Tax rolls of 1787
show this William with the necessary horse plus one colored hand under 16. Deed Book E, page
341 Amherst County shows Wm. Tyree sold June 1, 1782 a 50A piece of land on north side of Tye
River, part of 180 A granted him in Richmond July 20, 1780 for 35 pounds. But (?), deed of Jan. 8,
1807 (which lists children of William Tyree: Reuben, Nathan, Mary, Zachariah Tyree, Elizabeth
Leggins formerly Tyree) says: deceased William left 180A on N. Side of Tye River which was sold
for 180 pounds to Lewis Tindall.

Charlie ran R.R. for the forest service at Massie’s Mill; his sons, including Tucker,
sometimes worked for him. (An E-Mail letter from Phil Tyree 8-27-1995 asked for
information on Phil's grandfather, Charlie Tyree. Phil knew only that his father, Tucker
Tyree, was born 1909 at Massie's Mill, Virginia, the youngest of 17 children who had
scattered through the years. Phil had been able to find only Robert Tyree, Everette Tyree,
Hubert Tyree, Helen Tyree, and Hazel Tyree for his aunt and uncles. When I tried to Email Phil a few months later to question him about this possible placement for
his grandfather, he was no longer a subscriber to the service.)

Zachariah Tyree (1765-1821), a "Rev. soldier" (from pension application of John Cash, 2nd Div.
Minute Men under Capt. Samuel Higgenbotham -- Zachariah, also William Tyra, were on a list of
men who marched north in 1776 from Amherst [now Nelson] thru Albemarle, Fluvanna &
Goochland to Richmond to take charge of the artillery there). This run of Siblings: Reuben,
Nathan, Mary, Elizabeth and Zachariah, is also found in the notes of researcher Young Tyree (and
in the same order but without dates) under Jacob Tyree as descendants of his son William (which
makes the second 5 a generation younger). Such a repetition is usually an error; however a
Nathaniel and Zackariah actually appear in other records that would confirm them in the second
listing. (?)
Zachariah Tyree b. 1791 (in Amherst census of 1840; also Census of 1870 in which he lived in
Amherst Township where Jesse Tyree and Paulus P. Tyree had established their families).
One Zachariah Tyree m. Sept. 27, 1810 Nelson County to D. Wright, security Reuben L. Tyree.
Jacob Tyree b. 1835 (in Census of 1860, he was a 25 year old laborer living with his father,
the only one of Zacharia’s children listed).
Miles Tyree (orphaned).
Austin W. Tyree (orphan bound to James Pamplin, Nelson Co.). Is there any connection
with the following: 8-25-1837 Austin Tyree m. Mary Martin; Security Jon. Martin?
Jacob Tyree came to Amherst early; he had been listed in the Census of 1790 as having 7 whites
and no blacks in his household (also in the 1790 Census of Amherst, another Jacob was listed who
had 9 whites and 8 blacks -- so there had to be two Jacobs, and probably from two families with
unrelated lifestyles) (could this have been the “Jacob, son of Jacob” who died in Rev. Service and
for whom William Tyree was the heir?)
William Tyree of Amherst (Wm. Tyree of Nelson Census 1810, 00010-20201-00?) (Wm. Tyree of
Amherst Census 1810, 12101-12110-00?) Amherst became Amherst & Nelson 1801.
Nathaniel Tyree m. 1811 (Nelson Census 1810, 00001-00001-00 -- no? this Census is of an
old man whose children have left home; the 1811 marriage suggests a bridegroom) to Sally
Childress; m. Dec. 27, 1819 Nelson County to Nancy Childress, security Jas. Johnson. Census
of 1840 places him as a head of family in household #207; the same Census also places
Reuben L. Tyree as a head of family in the same #207. 1850 Census of LeClede Co. Mo. cites
a Nathan b. 1793, then living in the Johnson family (?). Some Nathan Tyree later living in Ok.
with Indian groups is said to have married Elizabeth Childress. Nathan claimed to have had lots
of children; only the following few were found:
William H. Tyree b. 1827 Amherst, m. 1866 Charlotte A. Powell.
Charles Tyree b. July 1867 Amherst Co.
47
Emma Tyree b. 6-9-1877 Amherst Co.

Abbeyhill Ct., Timonium, MD 21093 says Richard Marvel Tyree b. 1874, became a Baptist
Minister and farmer in Forks of Buffalo and then Concord, Va.; he m. 5-6-1898 Lillie Belle

the wagon journey over rough mountain roads in December, traveling in a wagon drawn
by a “spike” team. Charlie the horse led the triangularly arranged team, behind him were
Rum and Brandy, two stalwart oxen which had trained with horses for faster movement.
They reached Washington County and found a place near the head of Boone’s Creek.

The second Tyree family of Amherst came about the same time as the first; but were slave
holders. This family was to be found early on Nassau Creek, later the river town of New
Glasgow. The Tyree given names of Jacob and Cornelius, thought to be unique in this family
(but now found elsewhere), seem to invite an hypothesis: following Jacob Tyree who entered Calvert
Co., Md. 1697. Just across the Potomac River, one Cornelius Tyser and Wm. Tyser appeared
on the Va. Census of Northumberland Co. 1810. Cornelius was over 45 and owned 9 slaves; the
nearby William, between 26 and 45, owned 11 slaves; even as the here listed Jacob Tyree, Jr.
between 26 and 45 in that year, owned 9 slaves (which he may have inherited from his father Jacob
who owned 8 then 13 slaves in the Va. Censuses of 1783 and 1787. This 2nd family is marked not
only with slaves but with growing wealth which meant constant inheritances -- most of the information
about this family was gleaned from wills.
Jacob Tyree b. 1719 St. Anne's Parish. He first appears in Court Records of Albemarle County
(Albemarle formed from Goochland 1744) Feb. 23, 1759 when he was a witness for Jno. Burns, Jr.
His will 10-6-1796 to 9-21-1801 (he d. 9-11-1801 at 82) filed Amherst Co., Bk. 4, p. 22; the 1813
probate of this will shows heirs to be his Wood grandchildren (was the Wood father incapacitated?)
and lists his wife as Nancy. Previously his wife had been listed as Mary in a deed of Oct. 1, 1763,
Deed Bk. A, p. 144, St. Ann’s Parish, Albemarle Co., when Jacob bought 150A both sides of
Nassau Creek from Richard M. Cary for 32 pounds; wits: Wm. Tiller, Charles Teatet, John
Crawford. Sept. 20, 1768 Jacob bought 192A in Rich Cove, Albemarle County. Sept. 17, 1769
Jacob and Mary sold above 192A to Web Kidd of Albemarle for 20 pounds. Aug. 3, 1772 Jacob
Tyree, ux. Mary, Amherst County Deed Bk. “A”, p. 377, sell 150A both sides Nassau to Enoch Nash;
Line of Jno. Harmer. Oct. 3, 1774 Jacob Tyree bought 400A on both sides of Buffalo River at
Fluvanna River (later called James River) for 200 pounds from Aaron and Clara Higginbotham,
Amherst Parish. Order Book Amherst Co. July 11, 1781, Jacob Tyree presented claim for pmt. of
492 pounds of beef (#477) supplied to Rev. forces. The Census of 1783 shows his "9 whts., 8
blks."; in 1787 he owned 11 slaves, 5 horses, 13 cattle (unlike the John, William and Jesse Tyree
families; this means future inheritance and wills to be filed which will help place relationships). In
1786 Jacob sold 120A on the Buffalo. Oct. 6, 1796 Jacob Tyree, Sr. took 10A for 20 pounds on S.
side of Buffalo River; among witnesses: Jacob Tyree, Jr. and James Tyree, Sr. Wife Mary (d. 1010-1796 at 66), when he wrote his will 10-6-1796 in Lexington Parish, Amherst Co.; was the Nancy
mentioned in the will his daughter Nancy Tyree Wood with whom he then went to live and whose
children became old Jacob’s heirs. His will left black slaves to each of his heirs; 175A of land
“whereon I live” to his son William (on Buffalo River); and balance of land “whereon I live” to son

Amherst Co. to James R. Penn of Bedford Co; the Amherst Co., land was on the south side of
Berry's Mt., bounded by land of Messers Robertson, Spencer, Lane, Thomas Wilsher and William
Tyree (suspect this is the William referred to because this family's Sarah married Joseph
Wilsher). Aug. 26, 1806, Jacob Tyree sold to Seaton M. Penn for 675 pounds two tracts (175A &
100A); the 175A had been bequeathed to William Tyree by his father. 1810 Census Amherst:

Jacob Tyree, Jr. b. 3-6-1768; his estate began early -- from 1790 to 1810 he was taxed for 9
slaves. From Amherst Co., records, Feb. 17, 1822, Jacob and his wife Martha sold 246A for $900
to Tandy Rutherford on south borders of the Buffalo. Jacob’s will 8-11-1844 ; codicil Aug. 31,
1846; he d. 2-8-1847 with probate date of 4-19-1847 Amherst Will Bk. 21, p.7; will speaks of land
53
"rented to Wm. A. Tyree"; it lists his children and among them includes Charles H. Massie (the
Charles H. Massie who is listed elsewhere as having married Sophie Tyree?); also noted in the
will that Jon. H. Tyree was his debtor, inventory by C. J. Tyree; his wife was Martha (this Martha b.
3-1-1781, according to Amherst Census 1850 she held a value of $2000). Back on Jan. 9, 1803,
a Sunday afternoon in Amherst Co., Jacob Tyree had m. Martha “Patsy” Allen, with Rev. James J.
Tyree officiating, permission by Martha’s mother Hannah Allen Hylton, widow (father had been
Samuel Allen who d. 9-17-1799 at 46). Interesting suit from Augusta Co. records 1814 of Allen
versus Hylton: Martha, w. of Jacob Tyree was complainant (being joined in complaint by her
sisters Bethinia Allen Camden (m. to Leroy Camden) and Lucy Allen Tindall (husband Geo. H.
Tindall d. 5-18-1814) along with Martha’s brothers George, Jesse, Samuel H. and John Allen: all
children of Hannah, d. 6-13-1826 at 72yrs. 1 mo. 7 days, and Samuel Allen; plus grandchildren of
deceased daughter Lucy: George, William, Nancy, Susan and Martha Tindall; and Hannah wife of
James Edmonds, Bethinia Allen widow of John Allen and a daughter of James Nevil of Albemarle
who owned property in her own right from her father. They were contesting the division of their
grandmother’s estate; grandmother’s name Bethinia Nevil Allen Hylton, d. 8-4-1843 -- which
suggests that the names Bethania and Bethemia entered the Tyree family from above
grandmother; Bethinia’s father was James Nevil of Albemarle Co.; she was the widow of John
Allen; she later co-habited with George Hylton who d. July 1812 but for inheritance purposes in
1843 had to prove marriage; the suit decided they were married.
(Convenient family listing of family of Samuel Allen and Hannah, dau. of Bethinia

Incidentally, the newspaper Maury Democrat of Tenn. printed Nov. 21 1899 a notice that Mrs.
Bethania Tyree d. Sunday in Caldwell Co., Ky. at 102 years of age; she was b. 7-12-1797; the only
Bethania (Bethinia) I can find who might have been born in 1797 (instead of given date of 1788)
is the above sister; could she have married a Tyree later on?. Household head Jacob Tyree d. 28-1847 at 78 yrs. 11 mo. 2 days. In the 1860 Census, Martha 78 was head of household with real
property value of $2496 and personal property value of $7977; Bethania 53 who had a personal
property value of $1200 lived with her, also Hannah 52 with personal property value of $1500 and
Frances 45. Household mother Martha d. 9-11-1867 at 87.

May 1831 property in Amherst (BT p. 359) “except part due my son Smauel L. Tyree, as

Sometime before 1850, new Tyree names began to appear in the Census of AMHERST AND
NELSON. Some are from the newly arrived brothers Littleberry, John L. and Madison B. Tyree.
Although Littleberry stayed on to die in Amherst, two of his sons, William Nelson and John
Andrew, ran away from home and into Greenbrierr County, where descendants of John Andrew
often confuse the tracings of our own West Virginia Tyree's.

CAMPBELL COUNTY was formed across the James River from Amherst County in 1781. A youthful
Jonathan Lynch had established a ferry across the James River at a likely site as early as 1757; as
the burgeoning tobacco farmers of Amherst County were joined by the farmers of Bedford County
across the River in putting more and more flat boats on the River, Lynch's business grew. Campbell
County was formed on the south shore to handle the increased pressure. In 1792 Lynch built a
tobacco warehouse on the south shore of his ferry landing and licensed 45 of his acres there for a
town: LYNCHBURG.
….
From a list of Quaker Marriages in Campbell County we find:

Burrows a niece of Roland Neal Johnson, E-mail (burrows@watervalley.net) tells a wild tale
about this John Logan. His and Marcie’s marriage was arranged by their families; they owned
a picture framing shop in Lynchburg; sometime before 1914 they employed Maggie Spencer
Hundley. Maggie and John had an affair; Marcie refused to divorce John, so John and
Maggie left VA, changed their names to John Terrell Williams and Margaret S. Hundley; they
moved to St. Joseph, MO, married and had 4 daughters. They lived St. Joseph, MO until they
moved to San Diego, CA in Nov. 1920 where Margaret d. 5-13-1922. John then moved his
young daughters back to St. Joseph, MO where he was unable to care for the children; so he
put them in an orphanage. John answered an ad in a newspaper in which a woman from
Golden, CO was looking for a husband; her name was Elizabeth Burkhart; John went to
Golden and married the woman; they returned to St. Joseph and retrieved the girls. After the
girls were grown, John divorced Elizabeth and returned to CA with his girls. Later John lived
with his youngest daughter and her husband in CA; John died in San Bernardino, CA. 3-121950; he was cremated (Bobbit’s Funeral Home) under Williams name.

We Tyrees tend to ignore ISLE OF WIGHT COUNTY perhaps because it ignored the Tyree name.
But the County did spawn BRUNSWICK 1720 which in turn spawned LUNENBURG in 1746 which in
turn spawned HALIFAX in 1752 which in turn spawned PITTSYLVANIA COUNTY in 1766 -- and there
are to be found some Tyrees. They are probably immigrants from more northern counties; but they
could go on to traffic into NORTH CAROLINA; thus we certainly need to follow them.

PUSHING ON -- to the West and looped from the north, we find ROCKBRIDGE COUNTY formed
1778 and BATH formed 1791. These counties can be traced back thru AUGUSTA formed 1745 thru
ORANGE formed 1734 thru SPOTSYLVANIA formed 1721 thru KING WILLIAM created 1701 thru
KING & QUEEN formed 1691 from NEW KENT; but the path becomes too far flung. It only illustrates
how the State of Virginia tried to cope with its perceived responsibilities.
Following the path established by AUGUSTA COUNTY, Virginia’s counties moved into the mountains
and beyond; here a new kind of citizen was developed. The beyond counties recognized their
difference and became the independent STATE OF KENTUCKY in 1798. The mountain counties
hung on until the Civil War wrecked havoc among their population; they formed the new STATE OF
WEST VIRGINIA in 1863.

AUGUSTA COUNTY’S churches in the Lexington Presbytery: Craigsbville Presbyterian -- Deacon
David N. Tyree in 1945; Waynesboro Presbyterian Church -- Deacon Douglas R. Tyree in 1959; and

the Northern Neck to Staunton, Augusta Co., Va: William Tyer, Sr., Joseph Tyer, John Tyer, Charles

The earliest maps show ISLE OF WIGHT COUNTY sweeping west and curling up north along the
mountains. In 1653 England paid some Indians for lands around the Chowan River in the Carolinas;
Virginians began to move into the area with doubtful settlement rights that same year. In 1663 King
Charles II granted the Carolina Region to 8 of his favorite Lords who became its proprietors. The
Lords did not want to go to the expense of bringing colonists from England; so they attempted to
continue to attract settlers already in the New World. In 1665 the Carolina boundaries were moved a
little to the north to accommodate these earliest settlers now listed as residents of Albemarle Co., NC.
A few more Virginians migrated into the northern reaches of the Carolinas; but found little they could
not get in Virginia and with better terms; many of their descendants wound up in Scot Co., VA. In
1772 a large, indefinite part of the area was named FINCASTLE CO. In 1776 WASHINGTON
COUNTY was formed from Fincastle; and RUSSELL COUNTY was formed from that in 1785 within
the now clearly finalized boundary of Virginia. LEE COUNTY was formed from Russell in 1792; and
SCOTT COUNTY was formed from Lee in 1814. The southern border of Virginia and particularly this
little southwest corner was closely tied to the development of Carolina.

From NORTH CAROLINA through SCOTT COUNTY, VA.
John Tyree b. before 1727, probably Va., d. 1793 Wilkes Co., N.C., m. Fanny Voul b.c. 1755, d. after
1830; then the line runs on through Scott County, into Kentucky, Indiana and Arkansas. This list
covers some of the same people that ELLA RAE WILSON COLEMAN RESEARCHED IN HER
BOOK, THE TYREE TRAIL, 1987; although I was unable to get a copy of this out-of-print work, I did
view it on a fisch copy prepared and circulated by the Mormon Church. In some instances we
disagreed; but I had the advantage of her work, not the other way around.

OUR TYREES, a 45 page file of all the descendants of Richard F. Tyree, who came into these hills
before 1800 and lived in Fayette Co., should go here. Because it is complete in itself and because of
the cumbersomeness of placing it here, it has been kept separate.
….
1650-1680 the Tyree and the Satterwhite families were neighbors in York County. In 1720 David
Tyree and Michael Satterwhite were called up from the Hanover County (St. Paul's Parish) list of
titheables to work on the roads. In the years following 1720, the two famillies were neighbors in
Prince Edwards County; then the Satterwhite family disappeared; but that name lived on for at
least two generations as a given name for Tyree sons. One Satterwhite Tyree was b. 1783,
moved into the near West of Cumberland County (formed 1749) and continued onward while he
produced one of the most prolific and well preserved lineages we have. Here 'tis.
David Tyree; his will 1823-1827 in Cumberland Co., names Satterwhite to whom he gave $1
(in 1823 also sold David Tyree of Cumberland or his estate 145A). Was David's first
wife a Satterwhite?; David m. Martha Toney 1797 Cumberland Co., and they lived on land of her
father, Edward Toney (see his Powhatan will). Assuming Satterwhite was early son:
Satterwhite Tyree b. 1783, went to Powhatan County 1801, he was in the War of 1812 thru
1815 on roll of Capt. Samuel Marshall; he m. 2-17-1813 Rhoda Taylor b. 1792 Powhatan, dau. of
Mathew Taylor. He was in the 1820 Census of Powhatan County, the 1830 Census of Monroe
County, the 1840 Census of Fayette County, and the 1850 Census of Raleigh County when he
was 67 years old with wife Roady 58 (these last 3 counties to be in W. Va. later). RESEARCHER,
CHARLES LEE TYREE III had several of the following names on his list but said David’s wife was
Ann of Powhatan County -- Satterwhite’s mother? Satterwhite lived at the old Williams Place at
Glade Fork, Raleigh Co., W.Va. and was a school teacher.

NORTH CAROLINA
116
....
In 1653 Carolina was settled by some people from Virginia, who are found early on in Albermarle Co.,
NC (made one of 3 original counties 1663, discontinued in 1739). In 1665 the 8 Lords Proprietors, in
an effort to garner more settlers without having to invest in sponsorship, had NC’s boundaries
extended a little north. In 1666 there was an influx of 800 or so farmers into the Cape Fear area from
the West Indies, where the slave-worked sugar plantations were making things difficult for small
farmers; but frequent storms and barren soil in Carolina caused many of these to move north, into
Virginia and even into New England. Finally, in 1669, one of the proprietors, Ashley Cooper (guided
by his mentoring Secretary, John Knox) drew up a Constitution by which 40% of the land would be
preserved for nobility and 60% distributed to the Colony’s freeholders -- the Colonial Assembly refused
to accept this; and some friction resulted. By 1672 only 200 Colonists were listed in Southern
Carolina; in 1680 these were joined by a small group of French Protestants (taken to Charleston) and
Scots. The northern and southern parts became two separate Colonies in 1691. Progress was so
slow that in 1729 Parliament paid the Proprietors 22,500 pounds and took NC back. Only one
proprietor, Lord Carteret the Earl of Granville, refused to sell; he was given a strip between 35-36
degrees of the most populous area, called the “Granville District”. In 1746 a migration started down
the Virginia Valley and into the middle and western area of NC. In 1765 the still isolated but well taxed
settlers on the Western frontier armed to revolt, calling themselves “the Regulators”; Gov. Tyron was
forced to lead a military expedition against his own citizens. Other uprisings and Indian attacks made
fighting almost a way of life. Tennessee split off from NC, first as the Rebel State of Franklin; it
became Tennessee in 1796.
The Counties of N.C. went through the same evolutionary process as the Counties of Virginia; sic. -1663 Albemarle was 1 of 3 original Counties (name discontinued 1739). N.E.part of State.
1670 Chowan Co. was created from Albemarle; later Cherrituck, Pasquotank, Perquimans.
1722 Bertie was created from Chowan.
1741 Edgecomb was created from Bertie.
1746 Granville was created from Edgecomb.
1696 Bath was 1 of 3 original Counties (name discontinued 1739). N.W. part of State.
1734 Bladen was created from Bath.
1750 Anson was created from Bladen.
1753 Rowan was created from Anson.
1770 Surry was created from Rowan.
1788 Iredell also was created from Rowan.
1777 Wilkes was created from Surry.
1799 Ashe was created from Wilkes
After 1725, many exiled Scottish Highlanders came to North Carolina and began to settle the upper
Fear River. There don’t seem to be any Tyrees; but then the Tyrees were lowlanders. After the Battle
of Culloden (1745), the many combative Catholic Tyrees of Scotland were dispersed (see Chapt. I);
those most susceptible to British retribution logically found safety in France; land registers of Ireland
show some Tyrees began buying there; and immigration to America was to be expected. Quoting the
Genealogy Handbook: “large groups of Scotch-Irish Protestants came into Pensylvania and moved on
down to North Carolina...” Whatever the route, N.C. taxpayer lists begin to show a sprinkling of
Tyrees at this time; all in the Northern Counties.

William Tyree bought in 1750 two tracts of land from Samuel Wilkins in Anson Co., N.C.; his wife
was Mary (Raiford) Tyree. In 1756 William Tyree and Mary witness a deed for Matthew Raiford of
Anson Co., to John Raiford. In 1759 William made a Deed Gift of 300A to his 13 year old son
James. In 1763 Anson Co. tax records William’s name appears; also John, James, George,
William James and Obediah Tyree. In 1768 James sold 200A on the north side of Savannah
Creek, Anson Co.; witnesses: John Tyree, Fanny Tyree, James Tyree. In 1775 William Tyree died;
his will was probated in Anson Co.; it names wife Mary, dau. Martha, son James, dau. Mourning,
dau. Margaret.

John Tyree (obviously knew the above William; but the relationship is unknown) applied 10-16-1776
for land grant #458 of 440A, lying on both sides of the Reddis River (today the Reddies is a north
side tributary of the Yadkin River) “including improvements” -- had he been living there long enough
to build? At the same time George Tyree applied for grant #459 for 60A on the middle fork of the
Reddis River “adjoining land of John Tyree”; also George Tyree in the first list seems to have
passed his 60A on to John Tyree. In June 1778, a road was ordered to be built (John Tyree was to
lay it) to the Boone area from Reddis River to “Old Field on New River (just north of Reddies in NC,
thru Va. and into West Virginia where it is best known)”; could this have been “Old Haw Fields”
between Neus River and Nero River (see Peter Jefferson’s map of 1775)? In Jan. 1779, William
Tyree, “son of John”, took 100A on the north side of New River, grant #687; on the same day John
took 100A, grant #692, on the south fork of the Reddis “adjoining William Tirey”. Wilkes County tax
list of 1785 shows John Tyree owned 600A. In 1792 John’s will names sons William, Joseph,
David, Jesse; daus. Anne, Susannah Pinnel, Martha, Mary, Fannie, Hannah; wife Fanny Voul Tyree.
(See The Tyree Trail by RESEARCHER Ella Rae Wilson Coleman, 1987)
Ann Tyree
William Tyree b. 1754; in his deed #687of 1779 for 100A north side of New River, he is listed as
the son of John; after father’s death he moved with his step-mother Fanny and his younger
syblings to Carter Co., Tenn. where Fanny and William bought 180A on Gap Creek 1-1-1797. On
1-21-1799 Fanny and William sold deceased John’s N.C. plantation. 1-23-1802 Fanny and John
sold the Carter Co., property; deed witnessed by Wm. Tyree, Jr.; they then moved to Scott Co.,
Va. and were on the tax rolls there 1803. 4-23-1823 Fanny m. again to Burcell Scott in Scott Co.;
the 1830 Census of Scott Co. shows Burcell to be between 80-90 and Fanny to be between 7080; therefore she had to be her first husband’s second wife and stepmother to William.

SMITH COUNTY, Tennessee.
The William Tyree, who served in the Revolution from Powhatan, moved to Prince Edward Co. after
the War, then on to Smith County, Tenn. There he became an innkeeper -- also some of his
descendents. He was pensioned in Smith Co. and on the West Tennessee Pension Rolls, certificate
#7523, issued 4-28-1833 under the Act of June 5, 1832 at $30 per annum; he was 80. He d. Smith
Co.; his wife Sarah was issued his pension Sept. 30, 1833 on certificate #311. His family
descendents run through Arkansas and into Texas; but they are listed here where most DAR and SAR
applicants would look for him.
From Powhatan County through SMITH COUNTY to Arkansas and Texas: Wm. Tyree descendents:
(RESEARCHER ZELMA RICHARDSON thinks Wm.’s father might have been a John and his mother
a Frances Tyree.)
RESEARCHER Billy D. Tyree; E-mail (btyree@indy.net) claims this William was b. Dec. 1752 in
Chesterfield Co. (later became Powhatan Co.) a son of David Tyree; that he m. Sarah Zachary b.
1773 in Buckingham Co., dau. of Bartholomew and Judith Zachary.
This William Tyree has been confused with our immigrating ancestor (William Tyree); our
L'Engle cousin through Samuel Tyree b. 1818 took a D.A.R. membership erroneously using this
William. This William was b. Dec. 1752 in Chesterfield County which became Powhatan Co. 1777;
in 1764 he traveled 3 miles to Prince Edward Court House to witness for Alexander Spiers and Co.
in 1776 Prince Edward County paid some William Tyree for a gun furnished for public service, he
claimed residency in Powhatan 1777; he served in the Revolution "from Powhatan"; he moved to
Prince Edward 1780 where he was drafted Apr. or May 1780; he moved to Smith Co., Tennessee
1799 (Smith Co. made from Sumner 1799); in 1807 he was an innkeeper in Tennessee (some of
his descendants followed that line of work also), and died there 9-30-1833 at 81 years of age. His
wife was Sarah Zachary b. 1756, dau. Barthlolomew Zachary; they married in Buckingham County
1773. His Army Pension Record (V8c447) shows that he was first (Nov. 28, 1776 to Feb. 28, 1777)
a private in Col. Josiah Parker's 5th Virginia Regiment; John Pleasant was his Captain. Later he
was drafted as a wagon master for 6 months during which time his rank was Sergeant in Col.
Stubblefield's Regiment (sometimes Col. Faulkner), Gen. Gates’ command, when James Owen
was his Captain and Lt. Dudley McDennon was his direct contact, service beginning Apr. or May
1780. He served during the defeat at Camden; was discharged after the Battle of Guilford Court
House. He applied (application #W-6331) for a pension in Smith Co., Tenn. Aug. 28, 1832 @ age
80; he was pensioned (certificate #7523 which he signed with an "X", issued 4-20-1833 under Act of
6-5-1832, on the West Tennessee Pension Roll) at $30 per annum. On his death his widow Sarah
applied for 1-17-1837 @ age 81and received his pension; her certificate (#311) was in the same
amount.

The Tyree Springs was a mineral resort established in Sumner County by R.C. Tyree between 18141842; and it was on the Nashville to Lewisville stage line; letter of 11-21-1862 from soldier at
Headquarters of Second Ky. Cavalry says he is “in Camp at Tyree Springs, Robinson Co., Tenn.”.
This was a celebrated watering place until it burned during the Civil War. It was rebuilt and took
guests again until the 1930’s; the building was razed in 1945. To quote the book, Old Sumner:
Richard C. Tyree first advertized Tyree Springs 5-22-1822 in the Nashville Whig; it was located about
20 miles N.E. of Nashville on the Southern slope of Highland Rim. The Tyree Spring received so
much patronage it was considered the most celebrated watering place in the State. The site of the
original wood frame hotel and cottages was in the N.E. quadrant of its 400A located at the
Headwaters of Drake’s Creek. Richard C. Tyree operated Tyree Sporings until his death in 1825 at
which time other owners took over. Little is known about Tyree; he appears to a have come to
Sumner Co. before 1814 because he served in Capt. Geo. Elliott’s Company of mounted militia as a
private from 12-18-1813 to 2-8-1814 in the War of 1812. At the time of his death, he was survived by
148
his widow, Mary and a brother, Pleasant Tyree of Gallatin (then this has to be Richmond C. Tyree
from Campbell Co.; his half brother back in Lynchburg was Richard C. Tyree).

June 19, 1855: Thomas D. Chiles and Marinda, his wife, received $700 from Anderson Tyree for 100A
on Cow Creek. Deed Bk K, p 445.
153
Jan. 22, 1856: Anderson Tyree and Elizabeth, his wife, to Adam Tyree for $1 and love and affection
for my son Adam Tyree, a 105A tract on Cow Creek, Deed Bk K, p 595. This seems to be the same
Anderson who had a 6 year old son Andrew in the Mercer Co., Ky. Census 1850. Later the son is
found listed as Andrew Adam Tyree. This loving gift seems to conflict with the person of Anderson
Tyree who on Jan. 21, 1856 was drunk in the town of Irvin when he called Wm. Arvin and John Burton
(about 20 or 30 feet from where all 3 men had hitched their horses) to help him loose his horse.
When Arvin reached Tyree, Tyree turned on hm; Burton went for a pistol and dropped it in Arvin’s
pocket. Tyree took out a knife and cut his horse loose, then he stuck the knife in Arvin’s face. Arvin
drew the pistol; but Burton hit Tyree with a pole which stopped the fighting. Tyree was jailed; Apr. 25,
he was fined $50 and sentenced to 6 months in jail; June 3, 1856 his case was heard again and bond
was set at d $2,000; July 21, 1856 Arvin sued Anderson for loss of some eyesight, lost work and
medical bills. Anderson forfeited his jail bond. July 22, 1856 Anderson and Adam Tyree (this last now
a family property owner), were ordered to pay Arvin $150.00 and costs. Jan. 11, 1860 a Patrick
Mahan was charged with assault on Anderson Tyree (doesn’t seem to be connected to first fracas).

ALABAMA area attracted 1775 British sympathizers living in Georgia to evade participation in
Revolutionary War. After War other Georgia planters followed. In 1809 a group of Scotch-Irish, who
had tried farming in Tennessee, moved into northern Alabama. The end of the War of 1812 brought a
great influx of settlers; and Alabama became a Territory in 1817, a State in 1819 (the 22nd).

The earliest findings on the following list were from DAN TYREE (H.C. 69 Box O, Elizabeth, Ark.
72531); he appears on the list as Danny Glinn Tyree, son of Orvis Tyree, grandson of William Rose
Tyree, great-grandson of Elmer Elijah Tyre, great-great-grandson of Jackson Tyree. Dan and his
mother made a researching visit to Mae Anna Elizabeth Collins b. 1901 and Hattie Collins b. 1910;
also his mother remembered details from an earlier visit with deceased Allie Emer Bell Collins b. 1895
who at one time owned a family bible. Found earlier references to Dan’s research with his address
given as 22066 Goshute Rd., Apple Valley, Calif. 92307.

Email (alleni@ldd.net), 13299 Hillside Drive, Ste. Genevieve, Mo. 63670, ‘phone (573) 883-5313
wrote in October, 1997 and claimed Eliza Mae Tyree, b. 1890 in Walnut Ridge, Ark., for his
grandmother, a dau. of Nathan Tyree b. 1851 and his wife Rachel Collins; also saying Eliza had
a brother Elijah who was raised by John and Sarah McFann. Knowing the circumstances of this
tossed around family; I suspect this lone orphan was raised by her “Uncle Nathan”; and fits here
(which means the “killed by a train” is wrong). Robert Allen Isaacs went on to say that his
grandmother was buried in the James Cemetery; and that he had a newspaper clipping of her
graduating class at Cedar Grove School, Union Twp. which gave her name as Eliza Tyree
Isaacs (obviously already) married to his grandfather, William Jinks Isaacs (1884-1963); she d.

RESEARCHER Denise Newton Monroe, E-mail (denjim@primenet.com) traced through her mother
and other known family members to the Tyree name via Kentuckly. She found the following article,
which was printed in the Rushville Times Newspaper 12-30-1990, in a column called “Genealogically
Speaking”, a subtitle said the material was furnished by the Schuyler Jail Museum and was an
obituary that originally appeared in the Schuyler Citizen of 12-23-1896. The obituary was for David
Tyree b. in Harrison Co., Ky 1-19-1819. He was brought to Schuyler Co, Il. by his parents Isham
Richardson Tyree and Nancy Cunningham Tyree in the fall of 1833, which would have made him 14
years old at the time of the move. They settled on a farm 4 miles northeast of Rushville for one year
and then moved to Huntsville township where, according to the obituary, he lived for the remainder of
his life.

INDIANA, the land which England had taken from France and was thus expected as an inheritance of
the Revolution, had to be retaken by Americans from turbulent French trained Indians and became
part of the Northwest Territory in 1787. Indiana Territory was organized 1800; State of Indiana in
1816; Americans settled first in the southern part.

but claimed to be living in Utica, Livingston Co., Mo. (c. 60 miles n.e. of Kansas City) might have sent
his family there during the War; he was a private in Co. E, 2nd Regiment, Cavalry Volunteers, Merril’s
Horse, signature: Wm. F. Tyree. 5-24-1865 he was honorably discharged at Memphis, Tenn. 6-211869 he applied (as William F. Tyree) for disability pension for loss of eyesight during War; he gave
age then as 39. 1880 Census said both his parents born in Kentucky. 1902 obituary, Avola, Vernon

RESEARCHER Walter Evans and his sister have determined that their long searched for ancestor
William Frederick Tyree had a brother, George (Vernon Co., Mo. Newspaper notice of 1885 so
identified the brothers): George Tyra/Tyre b. 1826 was first found on an Indiana Census list for
Madison Co., Ind. where his occupation was given as blacksmith and his age as 24, b. Ind., with
Rebecca 18 who may or may not have been his wife; others in the same household were William
Carhunter, 32, a laborer, and Thomas Bodell 40 of Ohio (a 14 year old male Carroll Bodell lived next
door with Samuel Garratian -- Carroll was probably Carl Bodle later identified in the Census as deaf
and dumb). August 27, 1862 George was mustered, as a private, into the Union Army, Co. 1, 85th Ill.
Volunteers at Duncan’s Mill, Fulton Co., Ill; this unit was assigned in Sept. 1862 to the 36th Brigade,
11th Division of the 3rd Army Corps. On 8-28-1864 in Atlanta, GA, George was shoeing a mule when
the mule kicked his right leg below the knee; an abcess developed; 6-5-1865 George was discharged
from the Army at Springfield. Ill. On 6-1-1866 George m. Mary Catherine (nee Tyler) Bodle, with Min.
Wm. E. Burns officiating, in Howard Co., Ind. In the 1870 Census of Ind., George 30 and Mary
Catherine 26 were living in Waupecong Township, Miami Co., Ind. In the Census of 1880, George
was 53, Catherine was 35, they were living In Plevna, Howard Co., Ind.; and 3 children are listed for
them; we are also told that George’s parents were b. in Ky. On 6-5-1878 George filed in Kokomo,
#211,150, for an army pension, giving as cause his earlier leg wound; later he was drawing a pesion
of $6 a month. In 1879 Wilson Bodle testified that he worked in the same blacksmithing shop with
George 2 years before the War (no leg injury then); and visited George 3 days after he was hurt in the
Army incident. Also, Lafayette Tyler said he was a close neighbor before and in the army; at the time
of the accident, he, Wilson Bodle and Griffin Tyree did on several occasions visit with the wounded
George. (We can suspect the testators were all related to George.) In June of 1881, George and his
family were living in Vernon Co., MO., where he went to join his brother, William Frederick Tyre.
George died 10-28-1886; he was then living in a small tenant house at the Cogswell Farm, Lake
Township, Vernon Co., Mo. Dr. D.W. Harris attended him on his death bed; but George was too poor
for an undertaker; helpful neighbors buried him. On 4-24-1891 Catherine applied for a widow’s
pension from Kansas. Their children were:
Joseph b. 1862 (son of Mary Catherine and her first husband) listed as blacksmith’s apprentice 1880.
Sarah A. b. 1867.
George W. b. 1869.
Rosy b. 1875.
Henry b. 1878.

Frederick b. 9-9-1883, d. 9-23-1883 Avola, Vernon Co., Mo.; ?mother listed, Hannah Tyler b. 1840.
WALTER EVANS says his brother John, E-mail (jrevans5@sprintmail.com) searched the 1850
Census and found Frederick Tyre 21 with Mortimer Atherton in Madison Co., Ind., bordering Howard
County, Ind. which contains Kokomo. Walter’s mother, Martha Hickman, has Wiliam Frederick
Tyree’s death record which says his father was from Kokomo. Walter sent the early E-mail
(billmckibben@juno.com) of Indiana RESEARCHER PAUL W. McKIBBEN, correspondence still going
on.
RESEARCHER Walter Evans sends -- John H. Tyree, pension file #983701, saying John entered the
123rd Ind. Volunteer Infantry, Company G. as Private John Tyre of Holton, Ripley Co.; he was
mustered out 8-25-1865 (AGR7-177). Original enrollment 1-3-1864 at Greensburg, Ind. for service in
the United States in the Civil War; description at enrollment was 5’9”, dark complexioned, eyes dark,
hair dark, laborer, b. 10-27-1845 Ripley Co., Ind. His service encapacited him and left him with
chronic diareah and varicose veins; claimed hard marching caused these first, but now he has a
diseased heart and vertigo. After leaving the Service he lived in Washington Territory and different
parts of Indiana. He m.c. 1871 Milly Ann McCloud in Jefferson County, Ind. (wife deceased by time of
application of 1-2-1915). He applied for pension 1-24-1898 as John H. Tyree age 52, a resident of
Shelbyville, Ind. In 1900 Census for the Old Soldiers’ Home, Grant Co., Ind. he was listed as 54.
Address Oct. 28, 1907 was National Soldiers’ Home, County of Washington, State of Tennessee; April
of 1924 this John H. Tyree was at the National Home in Milwaukee, Wisc., and claimed to be 78 years
old and a citizen of Danville Co., of Vermilliion, State of Illinois. He was granted a pension 5-29-1925
of $72 a month to begin 5-12-1925, certificate #983701; he d. 8-11-1926 and was dropped from the
pension rolls at 8-4-1926. Testators: Sarah F. Anderson 1897 of Madison, Ind; Thomas Kenton and
Wm. Thralls of Shelby Co., Ind. (fellow soldiers).

Although most of today’s Tyrees in the Northern States trace their families through more Southern
entries, the following family of Tyer (see also under Iowa) claims its own name trail to England. It is
put here because of the variable spellings that are often equated with Tyree; and shows that maybe
some of these variables should be stripped from our genealogical lists.

said he came home tired one day and lay down to rest; a boarder named Stout was working on
his car and kept blowing his horn; Jackson went out, asked him to stop and went back to bed; but
the horn soon started again; Jackson went out again and said if that horn blew one more time he
would shoot the culprit; he went back to bed. When the horn started again, Jackson got his gun,
went out and shot the man, then returned to his bedroom, put the gun to his head and killed
himself. Jessie Minnie d. 10-17-1963 in Baytown, Tx. E-mailer (Phillip_Tyree@fmi.com)

BLACK TYREES -- a few are scattered through the Censuses; but there are some RESEARCHERS
out there. Although I have done no work with them, we might like to be able to contact them
someday:
RESEARCHER HOWARD E. TYREE (INTERNET: Htreel@aol.com). He says, “our people were
former slaves of the Tyrees...my father’s family originated in Rocky Mount...I came from a family of 13
and my father from a family of 12. His father was a minister who started many churches in the
Kanawha Valley, W.Va.” And again, “My father’s family originated from Rocky Mount, Va...we held a
reunion with ALL the families in that county several years ago and I have a video of the event. I must
admit it was different, however we learned a great deal from each other.” And again, “I am a senior
underwriter with a Housing Finance Agency and have a loving wife and two sons who are in college.
All of my sisters and brothers, as well as many of their offspring, enjoy advance degrees in many of
the social and physical sciences. Most of my immediate family reside in the valley, however, several
of my brothers and sisters...are all over... St. Petersburg, Florida and I believe Texas...I will share the
information you have given me with other members of the family...We have two historians and several
writers.”
Howard wrote 11-25-1996 to tell us of a planned Tyree Reunion to be held in Savanah, Ga., around
July 4, 1996 (?); we were to contact Alma S. Williams at (912)355-1892 if we were interested. Alma is
a retired Prof. of English and a budding historian; give her a call and tell her cousin Howard sent you.
Oh yes, I’m going to be a grandfather soon (July) -- through son John. The “subject” heading of the
E-mail was Global 1999 Tyree Reunions (?).
Tony Tyree, 41 Bouldercrest Lan. #B, Atl., Ga. 30316 is another Black RESEARCHER; his E-mail
(mezzmo@mindspring.com) or (design@mindspring.com). His group came originally from Franklin
Co., Va. His great, great, grandfather was Jim Tyree (with twin ?Samuel) who with Lucy had a son
Thomas Crockett Tyree (Tony’s great, grandfather) b. 1883 who owned tobacco plantationa and built
many houses around Rocky Mt. Va.; Thomas m. Mary Elizabeth and had 14 or 15 children, the oldest
was Tony’s grandfather Henry Tyree b. 1907. Their family tree book has over 500 names.
Also Black RESEARCHER Trina S. Taylor, E-mail (INTERNET:carmel.apple@mailexcite.com) says
her first name is Tyree, named for a grandmother who was named for a Catholic Bishop; her family is
African Americans from Arkansas.

RESEARCHER MAURICE WATSON, E-mail (museumnp@central.co.nz) maintains a museum
(NELSON PROVINCIAL MUSEUM) of photography in Nelson, New Zealand. Among his several
hundred thousand pictures, many were taken by two Tyree brothers (William and Fred Tyree) cerca
1880. The brothers were from a London family who immigrated to New Zealand in the 1870’s. He
asks for further identification of the brothers. He volunteers that William and Fred Tyree set up a
photographic studio “here in Nelson” in the early 1880’s and his museum now cares for 200,000 of
their negatives (Tyree Studio Collection). William was born 1855 in Surrey, Eng.; Fred was born 1867
in Middlesex; they were the sons of William and Elizabeth Frances (nee Baker) Tyree. Doreen Tyree
from Dunedin has been doing a lot of family history research on this family and together “we” are keen
to track down extra bits and links.
LATER received this copy of Doreen’s work from Maurice Watson:
James Tyree b. 12-19-1793 London, m. Elizabeth Blake Styles 6-30-1817 Parish of Westminister,
London. James d. 4-3-1853, 14 King Street. He was a cordwainer (bootmaker); 6 children.
James Tyree b. 1818.
William Tyree b. 1820.
Could this be where the photographers William and Fred Tyree fit?
Edward George Tyree b. 1825.
Alfred Tyree b. 1827.
Mary Hodgman Tyree b. 4-9-1829.
Frederick Jeremiah Tyree b.c. 1832.
All the children immigrated “downunder”, except Alfred, and died there. From the William line, two
children ended up in Nelson as professional photographers (see above).

(Tyreetours@xtra.co.nz) writes: “I will get Doreen and Bob to give me a disc copy of the NZ Tyrees;
they have been in the process of moving for a couple of months now, but I will get down to Dunedin
(Edinburg of the South) to see them and dig around in the genealogical filing cabinet. Enclosed is the
address of a cousin in London, Christina writes religiously to us via Doreen and it would appear she is
more linked to the US Tyree lines than we can establish our own link with her.” (Lou added in later Emails: “...Pete with his elder brother, Kevin.” AND 7-12-’96 “...not sure if Bob, my father-in-law, is on
the Web yet” AND “Tyrees came to NZ around 1862 onwards -- all called William and Frederick,
cardwainers” AND “...some from Drury Lane, London”)

Lu and James Peter Tyree (Pete and Lu Tyree) run Tyree Tours; and a Secretarial Service with
translators; and a Bed and Breakfast Guest Home, “McFelin’s Valley Homestay”. Robert Tyree
reports he found an advertizing Web Page on their enterprises (http://nz.com/southls/TyreeTours/)
also their “Family” is on Internet through (RWDCTYREE1@xtra.co.nz).
“Central Otago is one of the hottest and driest places in New Zealand, we have landscape with very
few native trees, just a bit of scrub bush and plenty of mountains and lakes, some altered by the hydro
power schemes.”
“They say there is a Tyree House in New Zealand near Timaru on the East Coast. It was built by a
cousin of the Tyree family named Lawrence Tyree; he also has a cousin/brother in Australia who is a
millionaire with a millionaire version of the house.”
“The Cross family, living in Nelson, are related to Tyree via marriage to the Crosses back in 1847,
when Mary Ann Cross remarried to William Tyree, our photographer and inventor relative, after losing
her husband Charles Evans. William Tyree eventually adopted Mary Ann’s son James Arthur Vivian,
and his descendants still live in Australia. This is Jack Tyree of Prosserpine, Queensland.

RESEARCHER DOUG TYREE, New Zealand, E-mail (Doug_Tyree@xtra.co.nz) says: “My father
informs me of what he roughly knows tracing back to the Tyree brothers (gold-miners). I sent him the
following listing from the Mormon Library, Salt Lake City:
John Cammell and His Descendants (1782-1870), 8 generations; 3l pp.; published 1966 in Aukland,
N.Z.; dedicated to the memory of Miriam Isabel Cammell by Lynne Brown; filmed at Salt Lake City,
Utah 1988, 35 mm, in the British film area and made available for loan at their sub offices as item 1
with order #099 4096. Briefly, the work says John Cammell was b. England 1782; became a
professional sailor, married 1818 Elizabeth Eliker (?Hilleker) and had 7 children. Two of his sons
were trained for the sea; the first, William, settled in Australia; the second, George, left the sea and
settled in New Zealand. The descendants of these 2 brothers (thru intermarriage some became
Tyrees ) are the subject of these pages.
....
Someone volunteered -- Three brothers immigrated 1871 to New Zealand, they were: Frederick
Tyree, William Tyree, Alfred Tyree.

There were also around that time a J. Tyree in Dunedin, James Tyree in Queenstown.
Pete Tyree says a Rear Admiral Tyree was in New Zealand some year s ago, based in CHCH for the
Deep Freeze (USAntartica Base in New Zealand).
