Please take the time to read my "novel". It is
very important to me and I find that I enjoy
reading postings like this when I see them. Our
family histories are so interesting!

Has anyone out there run across any
Dungee/Dungey/Dungys or Lane/Laine/Laynes yet???

My line left Giles Co. for Southern
IL-(Williamson Co.) by 1850-both lines are a
deadend for me in either COCKE or Giles Co.

They were in Giles before the IL move, but...
at least one son was born in Cocke in the 1820's.


Charles(Aubrey or Albert may have been his middle
name)Dungee/ey/y(sp) may have had another wife as
mother to this son and other children....
in other words, the Lane(sp) female may not have
been the Cocke Co. wife.

ANOTHER STORY IS THAT CHARLES DUNGEE MAY HAVE
ADOPTED THIS SON-Charles was supposedly a
Portugese sailor who adopted this French boy (and
his siblings?)

BUT THIS MALE SON WAS DEFINATELY BORN IN COCKE
CO., TN, crica 1827-name WILLIAM E. "ABE" DUNGEY.
He was my g-grandfather. Please remember,
Dungee/ey/y maynot have been his birth name.

His siblings were Virgil, Eliza, Irv(w)in, Nancy,
Mary "Polly", James Monroe, Charles
Aubrey/Albert,
John Wesley, Timothy/Tilmon and Harriett...maybe
more. Some of these were born in Cocke as well.
If any of these names look familiar to you, even
with a different last name, please respond.

If the adoption story is true, and I think it is,
I would love to find out who my g-grandfather's
family really is.

So, Charles may have married William's mother-or
were men allowed to adopt orphans???

You can read about William Dungey in the Lincoln
Legal Briefs of Illinois. Abraham Lincoln
defended him in 1855 in DeWitt Co.-due to
William's dark skin color.

Thanks,
Jacquie
