Ann Pardue appears to have been the youngest daughter and youngest child of John Pardue who died in 1769. James Burke, her stepfather, was security for her marriage to Thomas Newman. A girl named Ann is those times and before was often called Nancy or Nan. Because James Burke was stepfather to Ann, it appears highly unlikely that he would have been security for any other person, other than his stepdaughter.<br />

Phebe Pardue was the eldest daughter of John Pardue who died in 1769 in Bute County, North Carolina. She appears to have older than most brides for that time in history appearing to have been<br />
born circa 1750/52. Morris Pardue who was security for Alexander Burnam was Phebe's youngest brother.<br />

<span lang="EN">**<br /><br />William Pardue was the second son of John Pardue who died in 1769 in Bute County, North Carolina. He moved to Warren County, North Carolina in 1780 with his wife, Frances. Frances appears to have died between 1800 and 1809 when William married Jane Savage, possibly a widow. </span><br />
<span lang="EN"></span><br />
<span lang="EN">William's daughter, Prudence, from his census records appears to have been born prior to 1780 thus she would be a daughter by his wife, Frances. It appears that his son, William, named in his will was the son of his wife, Jane, and is probably the William named as her brother in Prudence's will written in 1837. </span><br />

</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial";">Joseph Pardue's will was presented for probate to the court session of Warren County, North Carolina in August 1790 by his son, John, who was then </span><span style="font-family: "arial";">appointed by the court as administrator of his father's estate.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Joseph Pardue was born in the year 1733 to John Pardue whose will was presented for probate to the February Court of Bute County, North Carolina in 1769. Utilizing tithable records of his father, it can be determined that Joseph was John's third son, and probably his third chlld</span><span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;"> born probably in Henrico County, Virginia. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "helvetica neue" , "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">The Bristol Parish records of Prince George County, Virginia are fairly much extant and appear to have all the names beginning with the letter "P" available, but no Pardue, Perdue, Purdue or other variations of the name appear in Bristol Parish during the time period when Joseph was born.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial;">The Joseph Pardue who witnessed the will of Joseph Pardue would not have been his young son, also named Joseph. A person who was a legatee of the will maker was precluded as being a witness to the transaction. It is likely the Joseph Pardue who witnessed the will was the Joseph Pardue who was born in 1761, was on Warren County, NC tax lists in 1780s, and appeared in the Warren County, NC 1790 and 1800 Federal Census, was the Joseph Pardue who moved to Chester County, South Carolina between 1800 and 1810, and died there in 1845.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial;">The Joseph Pardue who was a legatee in his father's will was most probably the Joseph Pardue who died in 1807 in Granville County, North Carolina.</span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><strong>Notice in the Virginia Gazzette 15 May 1779</strong></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">While the image is very faint, with concentration, I was able to make the following transcription of the newspaper account. The notice appears in column three, third item </span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">from the top. </span><br />
<span lang=""></span><a href="http://research.history.org/DigitalLibrary/VirginiaGazette/VGImagePopup.cfm?ID=6576&Res=HI&CFID=15165687&CFTOKEN=67711452"><u><span style="color: blue; font-size: small;"><span style="color: blue; font-size: small;"><span lang="">http://research.history.org/DigitalLibrary/VirginiaGazette/VGImagePopup.cfm?ID=6576&Res=HI&CFID=15165687&CFTOKEN=67711452</span></span></span></u><span style="color: blue; font-size: small;"><span style="color: blue; font-size: small;"></span></span></a><br />
<br />
<span lang=""><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>The Commonwealth of Virginia</em></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>
</em></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><em>To the sherif of Chesterfield County greetings: We command you that you have one John Pardue, Jr, the son and heir at law of John Pardue, deceased, to appear before our justices of our court of said county at the courthouse on the first Friday in November next to answer a bill in chancery exhibited against him by Cleavland Pardue and that this he shall in no wise omit. And to have then there this writ. Witness Benjamin Watkins clerk of the said court at the courthouse this 15th day of October in the third year of this commonwealth.</em></span></span><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">This compiler believes that the deceased John Pardue was the John Perdue who was issued a patent for 400 acres of land on Sappony Road in Henrico County in 1746. That area of Henrico County became Chesterfield County in 1749. Chesterfield County Chancery court records do not exist for the time period so am unable to determine exactly what transpired. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">While the law of entail was abolished in Virginia in 1776, the law of primogeniture was in effect until 1785, thus in 1779, there are two possibilities for the command to the younger John to appear in Chancery Court: that he was the first born son of his deceased father who died intestate, or it was necessary for him to appear in court to arrange disposition of the father's estate, </span><span style="font-family: Arial;">Cleavland likely a younger son, appointed administrator, anxious to have the estate settled.</span><span style="font-family: Arial;"> </span><br />

<br /></div>
<br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">John Perdue, Sr and his son, John, Jr can be located in the first column, just barely visible in the eleventh line from the top, as Jno Perdue Snr and Jno Perdue Jnr, </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">in Edward Booker's 1746 tithables' list on Deep Creek in Amelia County.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">The 1745 tithables list for the senior John is not available. It is unknown if son, John Jr. was listed in his father's</span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"> household that year.</span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"> </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">1729 is reckoned as the birth year of John, Jr. having been born no later than June 10, 1730. Given that his brother,</span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";"> Joseph, first shown in his father's 1750 tithables, having been born no later than October 1733 as confirmed by records of his draft into the Seventh Virginia Regiment in October 1756 at the age of 23, and given that his brother, William, first shown in his father's tithables' list in 1748, born between 11June 1731 and 10 June 1732, and based on the probability that there were the usual </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">two years between the births of the eldest children, John, Jr's birth year is calculated to more likely be 1729.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">Most of the Amelia County tithables lists are available for the years from 1736 through 1764 and as I locate jpeg images they will be added as I find them.</span><br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">He moved to North Carolina in 1761 from Deep Creek in Amelia County, Virginia, where the deed selling his </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">land records his name as Pardue, w</span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">here, fro</span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">m the tithable and court records, he appears to have been living on </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">Deep Creek from at least as early as 21 October 1743. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">The year 1744 is the first time he was listed in the Amelia County Tit</span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">hables records, indicating that he moved to Amelia County sometime in the four months after June 11, 1743 and the 21 October 1743 date when he first appeared in the </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">Amelia County court records. Most of the early Amelia County tithables records have been preserved and nowhere in any of the earlier lists does he appear, so it appears that his appearance in October 1743 is the first accounting of him anywhere in the Amelia County records.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">This list of tithables of those living below Flatt Creek and Nibbs Creek (between Deep Creek and Flat Creek) was taken by Edward Booker </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">and posted at the courthouse in Amelia County on June 10, 1744, June 10th being the date for which all tithables in Virginia had to be accounted for the taxable year. As noted in a previous post, tithables were white and black males who were at least </span><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms";">sixteen years of age between June 11 the previous year and the June 10 courthouse posting date of the following year, and all Indian women. Tithables not accounted for were subject to a fine.</span><br />

<div abp="1596">
</div>
<div abp="1598">
<span abp="1599" style="font-family: "arial";">The above chart shows the matches establishing </span><span abp="1600" style="font-family: "arial";">the genetic profiles for John Pardue who died in Bute County, North Carolina in 1769, and for a William Perdue through his son, Francis, as shown on the patriarchial page of the Perdue/Pardue DNA Project, and his presumed descendant, Meshack Perdue, who died in Franklin County, Virginia - both John and William early living in the colonial period in the watersheds of the Appomattox and James Rivers. </span></div>
<div abp="1601">
<br /></div>
<div abp="1602">
<span abp="1603" style="font-family: "arial";">The John, shown in the chart, born circa 1711, is the same John shown born circa 1705 and who died in 1769 in Bute County, North Carolina. His son, John The Younger, born circa 1729/30, as determined by tithables' records, indicates that, while not improbable, it is unlikely, that the elder John was born as late as 1711. Descendants of the elder John's sons: Joseph, Bevel, Richard, and Lilliston were the participants who determined the elder John's DNA profile. At the present time, while, it is definitively documented that Francis was a son of William Perdue, it has not effectively documented that Meshack Perdue was a descendant of William Perdue, though, their descendants share the same DNA profile. Remember, that DNA use for genealogy purposes can only establish genetic kinship, not the degree of kinship, at this point in scientific research projects.</span></div>
<div abp="1604">
<br /></div>
<div abp="1605">
<span abp="1606" style="font-family: "arial";">The above chart shows a Joseph Pardue who died in 1845 in Chester County, South Carolina. While some of Joseph's descendants claim descent from John Pardue who died in 1769 through John's son, Joseph Pardue, who died in 1790, at the time of this writing, there has been no documentation that can confirm descent from any of John's 11 sons. And, </span><span abp="1607" style="font-family: "arial";">though descent from John Pardue who died in 1769 and shown above as John Pardue born circa 1711, is a strong possibility, descent through Joseph, the third son of John, cannot be one of them, as shown by the following facts.</span></div>
<div abp="1608">
<br /></div>
<div abp="1609">
<span abp="1610" style="font-family: "arial";">Joseph Pardue who died in 1790 did have a son named Joseph, but, as was stated in Joseph's will written in 1789, his son, Joseph was not yet 19 years old, putting his birth no earlier than 1770. The Joseph Pardue who died in 1845 was born in 1761 according to his tombstone records, further confirmed by 1780s Warren County, North Carolina tax records where he was shown as a single man, when he would have been at least 21 years old.</span></div>
<div abp="1611">
<br /></div>
<div abp="1612">
<span abp="1613" style="font-family: "arial";">If the Joseph Pardue who died in 1845 was a grandson of John Pardue who died in 1769, the strongest probability of which of John's sons was his father lies with John's second, son, William Pardue, born circa 1731 and who died in 1813 in Warren County, North Carolina, where the younger Joseph lived in close proximity to William, from his marriage in the 1782 until his move to South Carolina between 1800 and 1810. Unfortunately, William did not, from all the available records, appear to have named all his children in his will. A father often did not name the children to which he had previously presented to those children some form of his estate that he intended for them.</span></div>
<div abp="1614">
<br /></div>
<div abp="1615">
<span abp="1616" style="font-family: "arial";">From research by descendants of the families who remained in the Virginia area, it is conjectured that Meshack was a descendant of the William shown in the chart. But, at the time of this posting, the</span><span abp="1617" style="font-family: "arial";"> documentation necessary to confirm their relationship has not been established. As previously noted in the earliest posting this webiste on the Perdue/Pardue yDNA Project, </span><span abp="1618" style="font-family: "arial";">without </span><span abp="1619" style="font-family: "arial";">documentation, dna testing, at the present time, cannot determine the degree of relationship each has to the other; only that within a parameter of generations they shared a recent common ancestor. </span></div>
<div abp="1620">
<br /></div>
<div abp="1621">
<span abp="1622" style="font-family: "arial";">As more participants of the Appomattox River P*rdue families join the dna project, updates of the information will be posted. Any male with the P*rdue surname, or any variant, is encouraged to join the project. As more participate in the project, at some future date dna might well be able, in some situations, to determine closer relationships. Informaton can be obtained from the following website. </span><span abp="1623" style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"> </span><a abp="1624" href="http://www.worldfamilies.net/surnames/perdue"><span abp="1625" style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;">http://www.worldfamilies.net/surnames/perdue</span></a><span abp="1626" style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"> </span></div>

<span abp="1632" style="font-family: "arial" , "helvetica" , sans-serif;">Called the Perdue Project, it was originated by descendants of the Perdue families from the Eastern Shore of Maryland, which until the advent of yDNA testing, researchers had never been sure that there was not an extant document somewhere that would establish a connection to the Virginia variant of the name.

As can be seen, yDNA is very helpful in sorting out whose lines belong to whom, and why males with any variation of surname spelling are encouraged to join this project!</span></div>

<br /></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><strong>Perdue/Pardue y-DNA Project Update 25 March 2011</strong></span><br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">The following </span><a href="http://www.worldfamilies.net/surnames/perdue/results"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">http://www.worldfamilies.net/surnames/perdue/results</span></a> <span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">links</span> <span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">to the latest update of the Perdue/Pardue/Purdue y-DNA Project. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">After decades of research on the lines of Richard Perdue who died in Montgomery County, Tennessee in 1811 and whose sons and grandchildren moved into Illinois and Indiana, </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">and unable to effectively connect him to the Richard Perdue in the family of eleven sons of John Pardue </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">who died in 1769 in Bute County, North Carolina, DNA submitted by descendants of Richard</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> demonstrates that Richard belongs to the Appomattox River Pardue/Perdue family and was the very probably Richard the son of John Pardue who died in 1769 in Bute County, North Carolina. Unfortunately, the submitter did not provide a patrilineal history of the line of decent. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Once again, y-DNA testing has narrowed place and names in the search for ancestors and as time continues and the DNA research results become more established, DNA tests will continue to be a valuable research tool!</span><br />

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="border: currentColor; clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial";">The marker in the above picture is located at the place on the Chickamauga battlefield where the Confederate Army of Tennessee, under the command of General Alexander Stewart's Division of Buckner's Corps, in the most intense fighting of the two days battle at Chickamauga Creek, Georgia in September 1863, routed the Union line creating a breakthrough for the Army of Tennessee to advance. This breakthrough gave the Confederate Army the victory when General Rosecrans withdrew the Union forces from the battlefield. It was the second largest battle of the Civil War after Gettysburg in size of troops and casualties.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="border: currentColor; clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="border: currentColor; clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial";">Brigadier General John C. Brown commanded the brigade of Stewart's Division in which the 18th Tennessee Infantry, led by Colonel Joseph Palmer, was in the heat of the battle where Company E "The Ashland City Guards" from Cheatham County, Tennessee was commanded by Captain Gideon H. Lowe. Note his name on the marker.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="border: currentColor; clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="border: currentColor; clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial";">Later when Colonel Palmer was promoted to brigadier general, Captain Lowe was assigned to his headquarter's company, and in his stead, Lt. David Crockett Pardue was made acting captain of Company E where he served in that capacity until his capture at the Battle of Bentonville, NC in the late winter of 1865. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="border: currentColor; clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial";"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="border: currentColor; clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: "arial";">In his application for a Confederate pension, mention was made by one of the soldiers in Company "E", that at the battle of Chickamauga Captain Pardue "led a charge with his arm in a sling and a leave of absence in his pocket." He had been wounded in the January 1863 Battle of Murfreesboro (Tennessee) and had been furloughed. From this account it appears he had not yet recovered from his wound, but, in any event, had come to the battlefield.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">It is unknown who was the father of this William Pardue. He appears to have been born before 1760 from other records that appear to pertain to him. He lived close to Richard Pardue, the son of John Pardue, who died 1769 in Bute County, North Carolina, but a birth year prior to 1760 would likely rule him out as a son of Richard, though, a story of one of his descendants seems to indicate that William lived on or near the Pee Dee River in North Carolina at some point, seemingly in the area that Richard lived in Anson County in 1790. So he may be younger than he appears to have been from the few references for him. Richard's move to Edgefield County, South Carolina also puts him near Richard in the 1790s.</span><br />

<b>Robert Cooper "Bob" Pardue Born in 1839 and Died 23 December 1910</b><br />
<b> </b><br />
<br />
Robert Cooper "Bob" Pardue was born in 1839 in Montgomery County, Tennessee to John Pardue and Sarah Pardue, nee Gupton. He enlisted in the Army of the Confederate States of America in July 1861 as a private in "The Ashland City Guards" of the 18th Tennessee Infantry. He was discharged on account of disability by October 1861 as shown on papers of the 18th Tennessee Infantry. It is not presently known what that disability was.<br />
<br />
A story, as told to one of his grandchildren, tells of an instance, before his discharge, of his being separated from his company and found himself in close presence of Union soldiers, whereby "he hid himself in a fallen hollow log until the soldiers had passed. He said that his heart was pounding so hard that he was sure the soldiers were going to hear it and find him out. That he had never been so scared in all of his life". Fortunately for him, they passed on by and when he felt it was safe he found his way back and rejoined his company. He died in Henrietta, Cheatham County, Tennessee on 23rd of December 1910.<br />
