GREEN BERRY LEE DUNKLEY b. 1800 Fairfield Co, SC
Parents unknown, but seems to be affiliated with John & Richard Dunkley.
Suspect he may be a descendant of John & Mary Lee of Fairfield Co, SC.
John Lee had a neighber "Jonathan Duncan" who might be John Dunkley. The
Dunkleys frequently
witnessed deeds and wills for the Richardson & Long families, but I have not
seen any Lee's
associated with those families.
Other extraneous info:
Green Berry Lee Dunkley (GBLD) married the widow Izett (Long) Richardson
about 1822.
One child known: Izetta Elizabeth Dunkley b. May 1824
John & Richard Dunkley were probably brothers, perhaps sons of the
Sabbatarian John Dunkley
who settled in Fairfield Co, SC in 1771 on the Broad River. They were born
about 1775 and
moved to Marion Co, MS about 1814-1818. Richard was married to the daughter
of John A. Arrick
of Fairfield Co, SC and had a brother-in-law named LEE Arrick. Richard had
one known child,
Mary Ann Dunkley, who stayed and migrated later to MS with the Arrick family
and then to LA.
Izett (Long) Dunkley's brothers moved to Limestone AL before 1820 and to
Fayette Co, TN before 1830
and by the late 1830's migrated to Nacogdoches Co, TX. (One brother,
Darling Long, did not go to Texas,
but to Itawamba Co, MS instead).
GBLD was still in Fairfield Co, SC as late as 1832 and was in Nacogdoches
Co, TX from
1839-1845. In 1845 he moved to Lauderdale Co, MS and married Rebecca
Elizabeth (maiden name
unknown), the widow of James G. Pringle.
