John Byrd:
Thomas Trammell was born in1747, but the place of his birth is not found in any of the records.
The Bible record which might have contained this information was used to verify a pension application submitted by his widow and was lost.
There is some basis for the belief that he was born in VA, but there is no real proof of this. His parents were Daniel and Elinor Trammell who moved from the area of Fairfax Co, VA to the western part of SC in the early 1760's.
We have no record of the boyhood years of Thomas; the best and virtually only record of his early manhood is found in the affidavit of a certain William Turner which was submitted in support of the claim of the widow for a pension...
Thomas Trammell married Mary Turner, 21 Dec 1775 in Union District, SC.
She was born in VA in 1757, and died in Chambers Co, AL, 28 Aug 1851.
We do not know the parents of Mary Turner, but she had a brother, name not known, killed in the Revolution who had a son John, and this John named a son Marmaduke.
This was the name of the Turner who came to VA as an immigrant from London in 1635.
It seems probably that the immigrant was theprogenitor of the Turner family living in Union District, SC in the 1770's.
Mary had a sister and at least three brothers, all born in VA.
The sister, Susannah, married Martin Hammond whoserved in the Revolution in Brandon's Regiment with several Trammell boys, including Thomas, and several Turners.
Actually, there were four Hammonds, five Trammells and six Turners in Brandon'sRegiment...
Thomas Trammell died in Pike Co, GA, 22 Sep 1823, and presumably was buried in that part of Pike which became Upson Co, in 1824.
His grave has not been located and may not be marked.
His Will is found in Will Book 1, Pike Co.Mary, his wife, died 28 Aug 1851 in Chambers Co, AL, and was buried in the Emory Chapel cemetery.
Inscribed in her gravestone are these words: "Sacred to the memory of Mary Trammell, wife of Thomas Trammell, who departed this life Aug 28, 1851, in the 94th year of her age. For 60 years a member of Methodist church exemplifying in her life the virtue of the Christian religion.
'Tis finished, 'tis done
The spirit has fled
The Prisoner is gone
The Christian is living
Through Jesus's love
And Gladly receiving
A kingdom above."
The children of Mary and Thomas Trammell were Leah, John, Elinor Burke, Thomas, Farr Harris, Betsy Green, Nancy, Lee Drakeford (or Drakefore Lee), and Milcah.
