Nancy STINSON and her husband appear on pages 59, 60 of "So Obscure A Person.” The dates and other information appearing with this family were obtained from the 1830 Census, DAR lineage papers and a CHASTAIN family genealogy book published in 1995. The dates cannot be correct for this family, so I have thoroughly researched the 1830 Buckingham County, Virginia census and calculated birth and marriage dates for the couple. They had two sons enumerated on the census, born between 1811 and 1820. They also owned ten slaves. James LESUEUR was born 1781-1790, of Buckingham County, Virginia, and his wife on the census was born 1791-1800, of Buckingham County. They married about 1814, probably in Buckingham County, Virginia. There is no documented death date for Nancy STINSON.
The remainder of the information on Nancy STINSON which came from Pierre Chastain and His Descendants, page 113, does not match the fact that James LESUEUR was living in 1830, at Buckingham County, Virginia, with two young sons only. The CHASTAIN information will need to be further researched. ©Edna Barney 2014.
