Timothy Stamps

(Ca 1770 - Bef 1840)



This Timothy married Millicent Dodson.

Timothy Stamps was born ca. 1770-1775 in either Pittsylvania orHenry Co., VA. He married Millicent Dodson in Surry Co., N.C. Milly was born ca. 1775 in North Carolina to Charles Dodson & Lucy Morgan

Milly's father, Charles Dodson, was born Feb. 02, 1747 in England; at least, according to his tombstone. His parents were Joshua & Rut hDodson. Joshua Dodson was born to Thomas Dodson & Mary Durham on May 25,1725; North Farnham Parish (N.F.P. Register). Since Joshua & Ruth Dodson were born in Virginia, it is not clear why Charles was born in England.Were they visiting relatives. Or, is some folk tale involved???... [I believe this is the classic error - if you don't know his parents, he must have been the immigrant!]

Charles Dodson married Lucy Morgan in North Carolina. He lived for awhile in South Carolina, returning to North Carolina, where, on May 15,1777, he enlisted under the Company of Capt. Joseph Phillips, Fourth North Carolina Regiment under the command of Col. Thomas Polk. He served to the end of the Revolution.

The 1800 Census of Pendleton District, S.C. shows the following persons on the same page: Charles Dodson, father of Milly; Dillingham Dodson,son of Charles; and, Timothy Stamps. Later, Charles Dodson moved to Kentucky, settling in that part of Warren County which later became Allen County. It is interesting to note that Dillingham Dodson had been in Kentucky in 1799. On April 27, 1799, he married Mahala Logan in Allen Co, KY. Charles Dodson made his home on John's Creek about seven miles east of Scottsville. Charles Dodson died in Allen Co., KY on May 02,1831.

On Feb. 02, 1794, Timothy Stamps purchased land on the Little River of the Keowee in Pendleton District, S.C. Pendleton Dist. was located north of Abbeville Co., and included what was to become Oconee, Andersonand Pickens Counties. Timothy also owned, in 1794, 375 acres on Long Creek, adjoining Zachareah Arnal, Wilkes Co., GA.

1800 Census of Pendleton District, South Carolina: Timothy Stamps,26-45; 1 female (wife), 16-26 2 males under 10; 2 females under 10. The sons are Nathaniel and Charles; the two daughters are Diadima Sarah and Lucinda.

On Feb. 19, 1804, Timothy Stamps signed for his share of his father'se state in Jackson Co., GA. In 1808 and 1809, Timothy was in Clarke Co.,Ga. He owned no land there.1 In 1810, Timothy was in North Carolina,where his son, Elijah, was born. Their son, Charles, married in 1816; Morgan Co., GA.

The 1840 Census of Allen Co., KY indicates the possibility of Milla Stamps, a widow, living with her son, Charles Stamps.

In 1850 Milly was living in the home of her sister, Rebecca Logan:
1850 Census of Allen County, Kentucky:
Stamps, Molly (Milly) 75 KY

In July of 1860, Milla lived with Matthew Garrison, 84, born N.C. He was maybe the father of Lucy Garrison who married Milla's son, Nathaniel Stamps.
