[Commentary] [Children] [Researcher List] [Register Report] [A Note about sources] [How to contact me] [Home]
I (Marty Grant) am a 5th Great Grand nephew of Jesse Stroud.
I would like to thank several researchers who have helped with this family, particularly in regards to Jesse's 19 children and their descendants. See the researcher list for a complete list of those researching this family, some of them helped me out in various ways, but I'd like to especially thank Beverly Holderby for data shared on this line.
Jesse Stroud was born ca 1760/70 per the 1830 census. I've seen old published genealogies giving his birth as "1758" but never with any sources attached. The only records we have for him that indicate his age are the 1790, 1800 and 1830 census. In 1790 he was age 16+, or born before 1774. In 1800 he was age 26-44, or born ca 1755/74. In 1810 and 1820 he was somewhere in Tennessee, and those census records are lost. In 1830 he was in Tennessee and listed as age 60-69, so born ca 1760/70.
Jesse Stroud was probably born in Orange County, North Carolina, assuming he was the son of Peter Stroud Sr as most researchers believe. They lived in southern Orange County along the Chatham County border.
Jesse Stroud is probably a son of Peter Stroud (Sr) and Naomi ---, but that is not proven. Peter Sr did live a Will, but it was lost with so many other Burke County records during the Civil War. Jesse Stroud was neighbors with Peter Sr and the other Strouds, and it seems very likely that they were father and son, but Ive seen no hard evidence that they were, but circumstantial evidence supports it and there seems no other option. Also, a 1922 letter from Ed Anderson (Grandson of Jesse Stroud) to John G. Stroud (grandson of William Stroud) stated that their grandfathers (Jesse and William) were brothers to Peter Stroud Jr and that all were sons of Peter Stroud Sr. We can only assume that Ed Anderson had personal family knowledge since he was not very far removed from that generation.
Jesse Stroud was listed in the book "North Carolina Revolutionary Solders, Sailors, Patriots", Volume I as a "Patriot", meaning he somehow contributed to the Revolutionary Cause. I don't know what service he rendered, though it was probably financial or material contributions. I have not attempted to locate any Revolutionary War records on him.
Jesse Stroud married Naomi --- before ca 1785, presumably in Orange County, North Carolina. She was born ca 1755/74, possibly in Orange County. I don't know her maiden name, though one published source shows that she was a Stroud also, but no supporting documentation was provided. If she was also a Stroud, then she was undoubtedly a cousin to Jesse, but I don't know who her parents were. I personally don't think she was a Stroud, but I have no proof either way. ("N.C. Revolutionary Soldiers, Sailors, Patriots ... Vol I" pg 200)
In the late 1780's, Jesse Stroud and family, along with his parents moved from Orange County to Burke County and settled in the Muddy Creek region (now McDowell County).
Jesse Stroud was listed on the 1790 census in Burke County next to his father Peter Stroud and brother Peter Jr.

Jesse Stroud was listed on a 1793 Burke County tax list in Captain John Carson's Company. He was taxed for 321 acres and 1 poll (himself). His father Peter Sr and brother Peter Jr were also listed.
By 1798, Jesse had moved his family just a little southward, but over the line into Rutherford County where he lived somewhere along the Second Broad River.
On 15 Jun 1798, Josiah Black of Rutherford sold 258 acres to Jesse Stroud, also of Rutherford. The land was described as adjoining Janes and Withrow. Witnessed by John Huddleston. The deed was signed by Josiah Black, David Porter and Rachel Porter. (Rutherford Co, NC Deed Book 10 page 115).
On 20 Jun 1798, David Porter sold Jesse Porter 100 acres on the North Side of Second Broad River above Coneways Creek adjoining George Black. Witnesses were John Huddleston and Hugh Black. (Rutherford Co, NC Deed Book 10 page 240).
Jesse Stroud was listed on the 1800 census in Rutherford County. Unfortunately this census was alphabetical, so I can't determine who Jesse's neighbors were. An older woman (age 45+, born before 1755) was living with them. This could be Naomi's widowed mother, or some other older relative.

On 18 Feb 1804, a deed was made between Jesse Stroud and Levi Touch (or Tout) for 100 acres in Burke County. This deed was lost with most of the early Burke County records during the Civil War, but the court record survives, showing it was recorded in April 1811 by Robert Morgan, a witness. (From "Burke Co, NC Deeds Registered 1804-1813" by Kathy Gunter Sullivan, 1995)
Sometime between ca 1806 and 1810, Jesse Stroud moved his family west to Tennessee. In the same time-frame, his wife Naomi died, though whether in NC or TN I can't say. I also can not say where he went in Tennessee. Several of his children appeared in Dickson County, Tennessee by 1816 including a "Jesse", which is either him or his son Jesse. Based on the 1820 census, I think it was his son Jesse in Dickson County.
Jesse Stroud married Tabitha Hicks between ca 1806 and 1810. I don't know if they married in NC or somewhere in Tennessee. I don't know the proof for her maiden name. She was born ca 1785/86 (per 1850 census) either in North Carolina or Tennessee. The 1850 census record for her lists her birth place as "Unknown".
I have a huge blank spot in my documentation for Jesse between ca 1806 and 1830. I can say that he was somewhere in Tennessee during those years, but I can't be more specific.
Jesse was not listed anywhere on the 1810 census. He was probably already in Tennessee then, and that census is lost for Tennessee.
I did not find Jesse on the 1820 census either. This census was lost for all of eastern Tennessee, but is still extant for western Tennessee. There was a Jesse Stroud in Dickson County, but he was too young, and I am fairly sure he was Jesse Jr.
Jesse Stroud was listed on the 1830 census in Obion County, Tennessee. This is in the extreme north western corner of Tennessee, bordering the Mississippi River and Kentucky. He could not have been there all along, for that area was Indian territory until 1819. Henry County was formed in 1821 and then Obion County was formed in 1823. Jesse was listed there in 1830 "next" to son William Stroud, but this list was alphabetical, so I can't really tell if they were neighbors, but they probably were.

Jesse Stroud made his Will on 24 May 1834 in neighboring Weakley County, Tennessee. I don't know if he moved there temporarily or what (his wife and children were back in Obion after this). His will was very informative. He named a large family including "wife Tabitha and her six children (viz) Elizabeth, Deniza, Obedience, Margaret, Jane, James & Richard, my two tracts of land in Obion Co, TN on Davidson Creek. He also named "my son Howell", and "my son Silas", "having had eleven children by my first wife Naoma, to each one dollar (viz) Echolds, Isaac, Jesse, John, Thomas, Nancy, Rebecca, Polly, Sally, William & Peter." The Will was witnessed by Harden S. Adams, Samuel Hall, and Thornton Jones. He signed the will with a mark that looked like an "R". Some use this as a middle initial for him, which it could be, or it could just be his mark.
His will was proven on 17 Jul 1834, so he had died by then.
Tabitha, now widowed, was listed as head of household on the 1840 census in Obion County. This census was alphabetical, so I can't tell who her neighbors were.

Tabitha was on the 1850 census with her daughter Margaret and her family in Obion County.

I have no data on Tabitha after the 1850 census.
Jesse Stroud and his first wife Naomi had eleven children, all named in his 1834 Will. Jesse and second wife Tabitha had eight children together, all named in his Will, for a total of 19 children. For some reason he mentioned Tabitha's "six children", and then named sons Silas and Howell separately. This could mean they had a different mother, or he just wanted them to have a different inheritance from the rest. It should be noted that Jesse did not name his children in the Will in their birth order.
Ecclesiastes "Echolds" Stroud (c1785)
According to shared research, John Stroud married Rosey Green, but I've not seen any proof (yet) of her given name or maiden name. She was dead before the 1850 census.
John was in Bedford Co, TN until the 1830's when he moved to neighboring Williamson County.
See his own page for additional information.
Echolds married Mary --- in Burke or Rutherford Co, NC and moved to Tennessee with the rest of his family. He lived in Dickson County for a few years before returning to Burke Co, NC by 1820. He remained in Burke until ca 1838 when he moved to Roane County, Tennessee, and then moved to neighboring Anderson County in the 1840's.
See his own page for additional information.
I have found very little on Isaac. He was named in his father's Will, so he must have been still living in 1834, though that isn't necessarily the case. He did not appear on any Tennessee census records as far as I can determine. Assuming his "1789" birth date is accurate, I can do some census analysis on him.
In 1790 he was probably home with his parents, listed in the "under 16" age group (born 1774/90).
In 1800 he was probably still home and in the age 10-15 category (born ca 1784/90).
His father was not found on the 1810 or 1820 census. In 1830 Jesse Stroud had no apparent sons this age with him, so Isaac was on his own (or dead) by that time.
Isaac Stroud would have turned 21 around 1810 and if he married it would have been around the same time.
Lawrence Wood (deceased) told me about Elizabeth Ann Stroud (1817 TN) who married Manson Grist and lived in Rabun Co, GA. He said her father was Isaac Stroud and that he died and then his wife married a Mr. Stewart as a second husband. He had no proof of this, but it was either family tradition or something someone told him (or both).
I could never reconcile this story with any Isaac Stroud in that area, but it is entirely possible that this story is referring to this same Isaac, for if his brother Echolds returned to the original home place, Isaac could have as well. I have found a little bit of data that may shed some light on this. Elizabeth A. Stroud was born in Tennessee (county unknown) in 1817. If Isaac was her father, then he married before 1817, and died soon after. Elizabeth married Manson Grist before 1836, and moved to Rabun County, Georgia where they remained. Their oldest child was a daughter named "Rosanna". There was a widow Rosanna Stewart (1780/90) who was a neighbor of theirs in 1840. Rosanna Stewart's son William Stewart married one of Manson Grist's siblings (or niece).
This could be reconciled in this manner (keep in mind this is just a theory, but it fits the available facts). Isaac Stroud, born ca 1789, married Rosanna --- before 1817. She was born ca 1780/90. They married in Tennessee, and lived there a short time. Isaac died shortly after marriage, leaving only one child. Rosanna returned to North Carolina or north Georgia where she married a Mr. Stewart before 1830. Mr. Stewart died before 1840. Rosanna Steward was listed on the 1840 census in Rabun Co, GA. Rosanna either died in the 1840's or remarried or moved away, for I did not find her on the 1850 census.
The above story would explain everything, though it is far from proven, but I do like it. There were other Isaac Strouds around, but none with NC or TN connections that would make me think they were this same Isaac, son of Jesse. I could have missed something though.
Thomas married Sarah Virginia Thompson in 1812. They lived in Dickson and Bedford Co, TN and moved to Logan Co, IL in the 1840's.
See their own page for additional information.
Peter married Rebecca Green before 1813 in Tennessee. They lived in Bedford Co, TN and moved to Logan Co, IL in the 1830's, and then to Marion County, Iowa in the 1840's.
See their own page for additional information.
Jesse married Jane ---, probably in Dickson County, Tennessee. They were there in the 1816, 1820 and 1830.
See their own page for additional information.
She was apparently at home with her parents for the 1800 census (age "under 10", born ca 1790/1800). I don't have her parents' 1810 and 1820 census records. She was not with her father in 1830, so probably married or dead by then.
She was named in her father's Will of 1834 simply as "Rebecca". No surname was given, so I don't know who she was married to.
I have found no additional data on Rebecca. A check of the marriage records available to me reveal no Rebecca Stroud marriage, or at least none that could be this same Rebecca.
Special thanks to Hazel Hayes and Beverly Holderby for data shared on this family.
She was apparently at home with her parents for the 1800 census (age "under 10", born ca 1790/1800). I don't have her parents' 1810 and 1820 census records. She was not with her father in 1830, so probably married or dead by then.
She was named in her father's Will of 1834 simply as "Nancy". No surname was given.
Other researchers show this Nancy Stroud as having married John Osborne Roberts ca 1813. I don't know what proof there is that John Roberts' wife Nancy was a Stroud, nor what proof she is Jesse's daughter. However, she does fit based on her age. She and John named a son "Jesse" and daughter "Naomi", so it all fits based on circumstantial evidence. If there is any solid proof, I haven't seen it yet.
** I am attempting to find my source documentation for this family (most of which was shared by other researchers), but can't lay my hands on it at the moment.
** I don't yet have this family on the 1820, 1830 census.
John O. Roberts was listed on both the 1836 and 1838 Wayne County, Tennessee tax lists, both times in District 2 and taxed for 100 acres and one white poll (himself) and for 5 acres.
** I don't have him in 1840 yet, but I'm sure he was in Wayne County then.
I do know that John and Nancy were listed on the 1850 census in Wayne County, Tennessee. Two of their married sons were listed close by.

Shared research shows that John O. Roberts died on 13 Jul 1862, and that Nancy Stroud Roberts died on 10 Mar 1869, both in Wayne County, Tennessee.
I have thirteen children listed for John and Nancy. Their names and dates were all shared by other researchers. The 1850 census proves two of them.
I don't have her parents' 1810 and 1820 census records. She was not with her father in 1830, so probably married or dead by then.
She was named in her father's Will of 1834 simply as "Sally". No surname was given, so I don't know who she was married to.
I have found no additional data on Sally. A check of the marriage records available to me reveal no likely marriages, for this Sarah / Sally Stroud.
I don't have her parents' 1810 and 1820 census records. She was not with her father in 1830, so probably married or dead by then.
Other researchers have told me that Mary Stroud married Samuel Riley. I have not been able to confirm this just yet.
I have found no additional data on them yet. In 1830 there was a "Samuel Riley" in both Warren and Williamson County, Tennessee.
William married Dianna --- before ca 1828 in Tennessee. They lived in Obion Co, TN and moved to Carroll Co, AR in the 1830's.
See their own page for additional information.
I have not found much data concerning Richard Stroud. There was a Richard listed on the 1840 census in Henry County, Tennessee. I don't have this census entry yet. This was fairly close to where his parents lived in Obion County, so this could be this same Richard. More research is needed to be sure.
I don't have her parents' 1820 census records. She does seem to be home with her parents in 1830, aged 15-19 (born ca 1810/15).
She married Silas Longley on 14 Jun 1830 in Obion County, Tennessee. I don't know the source for this marriage date.
I have no additional data on them yet. They may be the parents of Franklin Longley (c1833), who was listed with Margaret Stroud Shelton's family in 1850.
Howell married Matilda Haley in 1842 in Henry Co, TN. They lived in Obion Co, TN in 1850.
See their own page for additional information.
I don't have her parents' 1820 census records. She does seem to be home with her parents in 1830, aged 10-14 (born ca 1815/20).
She married James Herald on 29 Dec 1833 in Obion County, Tennessee. I don't know the source for this marriage date.
They were listed on the 1840 census in Obion. This census was alphabetical, so I can't tell who their neighbors were.
