(2) Both families were headed by patriarchs named James Kidd. (3) The two families' residence in the county was twenty years apart. The first family was gone nearly two decades before the second arrived.

Family One: James Kidd Family--Mecklenburg Co, VA (1760s-1779) to Oglethorpe Co GA

• ****************

In 1781, James Kidd made a deed in Mecklenburg to his son, William, of a slave girl in return for a tour of duty in the army that William had served in his place. Several testators, dated Chatham County, North Carolina, affirmed his signature.

In 1796, James Kidd is found in Oglethorpe County, Georgia, where he remained until at least 1807. He died in Wilkinson County, in 1816.

James Kidd, Sr., may have had a brother named Henry and brother of Webb Kidd of Wilkes-Elbert County.

John and Anderson were sons of James Kidd Sr and were identified by a ...gift deed... Oglethorpe Co 1810. At that time James Kidd Sr's son, Zachariah was dead. William, and James Henry are also his sons, and from inference, he had other sons, Abraham, and Absalom.

Some of the children of James Kidd through Miss Stephens and Winny Hudson are as follows: 1. JAMES H.. source= Rev. pension appl. affidav, son of Winny and James Sr

2.WILLIAM=same * Gift from his Grandmother Stephens in Mecklenberg/Lunenberg Co attests that he is her grandson, child of ...Miss Stevens..... Son of James Sr and ...Miss Stevens....

3. ANDERSON= source gift deed in Oglethorpe Co 1813, son of Winny and James Sr

4. ZACHARIAH = source. Zachariah died 1808, James H applied for guardianship of the orphans of Zachariah.1809 Oglethorpe Co Ga Minutes Bk 5 in Oglethorpe Co 1813. Son of Winny and James SR

Notes from http://listsearches.rootsweb.com/th/read/KIDD/2001-07/0994184080 ....James Kidd....was, in fact, married three times, and most likely not to Mourning Parish. By 1758, James Kidd was in the part of Lunenburg County, Virginia that became Mecklenburg County in 1764.

His first wife was named either Stevens or Addaman. This woman was the daughter of a lady named Mary Addaman Stevens. This older Mary was first married to Thomas Addaman, and secondly to Thomas Stevens. When Mary Addaman Stevens prepared her Will in 1771 in Mecklenburg County, she left property "to my beloved grandson, William Kidd", son of James Kidd. This William (RS) was born in 1763. Most likely, Miss Addaman/Stevens died giving birth to son William.

Almost immediately following the death of his first wife, James Kidd married Winifred Hudson. They had son James Henry (RS) in 1764. Winny's father was named Robert Hudson, not Charles. Winny Kidd died sometime after July of 1785.

On August 8, 1795, James Kidd married Frances Robertson. Sometime before September 1, 1798, James and Frances Kidd removed from Virginia to Oglethorpe County, Georgia.

Sometime after Frances Kidd died in Oglethorpe County, James Kidd moved to Jackson County, Georgia, where he died in 1816. His son, James Henry Kidd, was named administrator of the estate in July of 1816. 1

The following births are found in the the Middlesex County Virginia Christ Church Parish Register. Also the LDS records were taken from the microfilmin the LDS Family History Centers, many years ago, NOT the web page of the LDS on the Internet.

See notes on Mourning Mary and Winnifred. If info is correct James was fathering children with both women at the same time as the kids birthdays overlap.
