    Children:
    1. 4. Thomas Jefferson Chesnutt was born in Nov 1802 in North Carolina, USA; died in Mar 1865.

  3. 10.  Owen Owen was born about 1770 (son of John Owen and Living); died about 1838.

    Notes:

    I am estimating Owen Owen's birth at about 1770 because the 1820 census shows him as being over 45 and having 5 (1 male and 4 female) members of his household between the ages of 16 and 26. This would mean that he was born before 1775 and his first child was probably born around 1795. I am going to assume that his wife was about the same age since she was over 45 in the same census.
    Information on this family comes from the North Carolina Genealogical Library vertical file. William Alderman Parker (b. 13 Mar 1879- d. ?) compiled some of the information. William Alderman Parker was the son of Thomas Bradley Parker, son of William Right Parker, son of Zachiariah Parker, son of Richard Parker and Elizabeth Sumner. Additional info on this family came from a family tree done by Mrs. M. C. Bagley of Jackson, North Carolina. This Owen family tree is also in the vertical file.
    Owen Owen's will was probated in Sampson Co., North Carolina in Aug of 1838. The will was dated 2 July 1829. The will lists his wife Patsey Owen; sons, Bernice B., Irvin, and Reden; daughters, Mary, Elizabeth, Letitia, Jennette, Patsy Owen, and Sabra Parker. Executors were "my worthy friend and relative John Owen Sen. and my well beloved son Irvin Owen." The first codicil is dated 20 May 1831 and follows the death of his son Bernice. The second codicil is dated 18 Sept 1837 and follows the death of his daughter Elizabeth Owen. Originally, Bernice was to have inherited the family plantation upon the death of his mother, Patsey. The first codicil divides this property ( on the Little Coharie, Middle Branch, and Saw Pit Branch) between his sons Irvin and Reden. The second codicil leaves Elizabeth's inheritance to her daughter Martha Owen. (I have a copy of this will on file.)
    [about Andrews Chapel] "On the 2nd of October 1809, a plot of land containing two acres was given by Luke Parker for the sum of 10 shillings, or $1.25, to trustees, viz. Nicholas Parker, William Parker, Thomas Parker, Owen Owens and William Miller, for the purpose of erecting a house of worship for the use of the Methodist Episcopal Church. In 1816, a church was built of logs and called Parkers Meeting House, mainly through the influence of Nicholas Parker." from The Heritage of Sampson County, North Carolina. Oscar M. Bizell, Ed. The Sampson Co. Historical Society, Newton Grove, North Carolina, 1983, p. 81.
