| SAMUEL DEAVER (Unknown) was born before 1755. He married Elizabeth FARMER on 23 Feb 1787 in Rowan County NC. He is listed on the 1790 census for Rowan County and the 1778 Tax List for Rowan County. Elizabeth was an orphan and living with her aunt, according to their marriage record. Samuel died between 1800 and Feb. 1803 in Rowan Co., NC. Elizabeth Farmer was born between 1766 and 1770 and died between 1810 and 1820 in Rowan Co., NC. ______________________________________________________________________________________________ Children of Samuel DEAVER and Elizabeth FARMER: 1. Joshua (1787 - 1842) Rowan Co NC; m. Rebecca HAUSER (1796 - ?) 4 Feb 1814 in Rowan Co NC. She was a daughter of Jacob Hauser and Barbara Hartman. 2. Samuel (1789 - 1820) Rowan Co NC; m. Susannah HAUSER (1791 - 1845) 4 Feb 1814 in Rowan Co NC. She was a daughter of Jacob Hauser and Barbara Hartman. 3. UNKNOWN MALE b. 1790-1800 4. UNKNOWN MALE b. 1790-1800 5. UNKNOWN MALE b. 1790-1800 6. UNKNOWN FEMALE b. 1790-1800 7. UNKNOWN FEMALE b. 1800-1810 Elizabeth FARMER DEAVER remarried after Samuel died. She married William WEAVER on 24 FEb 1803 in Rowan Co NC. Children of William WEAVER and Elizabeth FARMER-DEAVER: 1. Amos WEAVER (1806 - ?) Rowan Co NC. m. Caroline THOMLINSON 2. UNKNOWN FEMALE b. 1800-1810 There are many genealogical sites that claim that the Samuel DEAVER who married Cloha JARVIS in Rowan County in 1820 was the same Samuel DEAVER who married Susannah HAUSER. I dispute this because of documents showing where the other Samuel DEAVER who married Susannah HAUSER is the brother of Joshua and Amos Weaver. There were at least 3 Samuel DEAVERS in Rowan County between 1800 and 1820. The first is the above Samuel DEAVER who married Elizabeth FARMER. The second Samuel DEAVER was his son, born in 1789 in Rowan County and died in 1820. He had a wife and 2 children by then. The 1820 census for Rowan County shows only one SAMUEL DEAVER who is single. This cannot be the same man because our Samuel DEAVER is dead. This third SAMUEL DEAVER is the one who married the widow of Lovett JARVIS, CLOHA, the next year (1821). Susannah Hauser Deaver and Samuel DEAVER's children, Martha B., and Mary "Polly" were awarded to Jacob HAUSER and then Josiah HAUSER between the years 1820 and 1824 for guardianship. Jacob was Susannah's father and Josiah was her half brother. This comes from probate documents in Rowan County for these years. For further conclusive proof, Elizabeth FARMER's son, Amos WEAVER had court papers naming his two brothers, Joshua and Samuel DEAVER. We have tied Samuel DEAVER and Elizabeth FARMER to Joshua and Samuel DEAVER (2nd), because of these court papers. |
