John Robert McGee

M, #5360, b. 1714, d. 1798
Basically nothing is known abut this person or his son John and probably also James because of conflation with the 5 brothers from Ireland. Everything is a mess for at least two generations due to this problem. I am not putting children in because of this problem unless I learn they definitely belong.

Same story for her wife. The Dejarnettes are well documented, but, alas, Ann got lost somewhere. So she also has little information, at least at this time.

MiscParents? He is never shown with William MackGehee and Mary Agnes Carr, BUT all of the McGees are incredibly mixed up! They think he's a McGee not a MacGhee!

This is the WikiTree entry for him as a MackGhee/McGhee and he married Ann Nancy Graves. And his son John is not OUR John!
https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/McGehee-284

There are no sources here, but this should be considered:
https://www.geni.com/people/John-McGee/6000000054632708245?through=6000000092174863885
Once it gets to his son John, he is suddenly descended from the five brothers and not the MackGehee line.4,5
MiscChildren. There is such a mess in this family that I only put children in that I thought I could be assured that they belong to a male MackGehee descendant and Ann DeJarnette. Even DNA matches were not convincing in some cases, because we are descended from both McGee lines.

William MackGehee

M, #5365, b. 1672, d. 1748
There are two William MackGeehee people, usually conflated. One is this William's uncle, brother of Thomas, the other the son of Thomas.

Even if the generation is wrong, the genetic family is correct. It would mean I do not have Bastrop blood... I'm not sure what my DNA matches mean... It would appear to mean I do have Bastrop blood... I seem to have DNA matches with a couple of children believed to be Ann's and the match is for Ann. Still work to be done here...

Birth1672In Virginia, British America. I'm putting his birth date as 1672. The trouble with that is it is completely out of sync from the other children of Thomas and Ann Bastrop.
Which some trees show quite different, but 1672 would still look out of line.

Maybe this is some other William? I trust the DNA (for now)...

A search of volume 1 on hathitrust says there are matches for "Mary Agnes Carr".
MiscConflation. There is a findagrave that bears no relationship to what I know about him. For example, the wife Mary Agnes Carr is confirmed to a certain extent by DNA.
https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/196114116/william_magee

see the discussion in the WikiTree entry for "this" William which I put as a source because it is long.

This is in the WikiTree entry of his daughter Mary:
Removed as daughter of William MackGehee b 1689, as this William MackGehee is too young to be her father. Added William MackGehee as father, consistent with a number of other profiles that had William b 1672 as father rather than William b 1689. However, further research required as William b 1672 already possibly has another daughter Mary, who married Richard Davis.5
MiscChildren. One can make some guesses from the ones with DNA matches that make sense...

Scott's DNA
Mary (1694-1781)- 2 William and Mary Agnes
Birth date is a 1695 baptism of a Mary Hill in London!
Another has her married in London but born in Virginia

Samuel (1706-1753)- 2 William and Mary Agnes
No evidence for a birth date but geneanet trees but children seem to be born in the 1720s.

William the Quaker (1715-1795) - 1 William and Mary Agnes
Is he confused with his father? Birth dates 1702? and his fatehr is called William the Quaker, which he was not, I think

Ann (1720-1784) - 1 William and Mary Agnes
birth from a marriage record to Mathew Rice in 1742,

Judy's DNA
Mary (1694-1781) - both parents
Samuel (1706-1753) No CA

https://www.ancestry.com/family-tree/person/tree/100137581/person/432515590006/facts
MiscParents - NO idea. I have Thomas. DNA indicates Thomas. DNA indicates I have Bastrop DNA. But most people assign William b1672 to a William. I just give up for now!

1672 is very early for this family and WikiTree has a William born 1689 who is NOT our William.

But their daughter Agnes was born in 1712 and married Col John Waller. Our Mary Agnes apparently had children around 1700.

There are some DNA matches of Mary Agnes with Thomas, son of Thomas Carr.
The accepted children are Thomas and William. Scott has DNA matches with Thomas and Robert. Judy has a DNA match with Robert. The Thomas has both parents as Common Ancestor.

WikiTree has:
Possible Parent: Thomas Carr as he was given a land grant by the State of Virginia on 22 Feb 1727 in Hanover County that adjoined William "Macghee"'s land. The land description is as follows: 3770 acres on the south side the Northanna on the lower side Great Rockey Creek, and on both sides Little Rockey Creek adjoining Wm. Macghee, Ambrose Smith, &c. (Source: Land Office Patents & Grants/Northern Neck Grants & Surveys)[1]

Possible Parent: John Carr. Yeoman, Will Dated: 19 May 1734, Location: Isle of Wight, John Carr. Yeoman. Leg. - daughter Mary; daughter Elizabeth; daughter Sarah; son William; son Abraham; son Hardy; daughter Grace; son John; son Robert; daughter Eleanor Duck; to my wife and my three young sons. Ex., son Robert Carr.

There are also some Massachusetts Carr people just to help confuse.
MiscChildren. I put this here because we know who she is but we do not know who her husband William is.

I see a child Catherine MackGehee (1698-1780) but I also see doubts expressed as to who her parents are so I left her out.

Jean DeJarnette

M, #5367, b. 1679, d. 1765
Jean deJarnat was Huguenot. He left France after the revocation of the Edict of Nantes by way of the Port of La Rochelle. After the revocation of the Edict of Nantes in 1685, great masses of Huguenots left France. Some remained in Holland while others went to England. Great numbers emigrated to America. All of those going to American had to touch at an English port to get permission before proceeding. In 1699, 600 settlers arrived in Gloucester County, Virginia under the leadership of Phillip DaRichbourg. Young Jean deJarnat was among this group.

MiscChildren. Ann is not included in the list of children in WikiTree nor in DeJarnette and Allied Families. But DNA says our Ann is related to Mary, Joseph, Elizabeth, Daniel, and Eleanor from the usual list. Also, Elizabeth and Ann married siblings.

From WikiTree:
Jean and Mary had the following children:

In the name of God Amen.
I, Thomas Mack Gehee, of St. John's Parish, King William county, being sick and weak, but of perfect mind and memory, do call to mind the uncertainty of this life and here make my last will and testament.
First, I commend my soul into the hands of Almighty God, my merciful Redeemer, hoping through his mercy to obtain an everlasting crown of glory, my body to be decently buried, and all my just and principal debts to be paid. I bequeath as here followeth: Item 1st. I give and bequeath to my son, William Mack Gehee, ten shillings to buy him a mourning ring, being in full of his portion.
Item 2nd. I give and bequeath to my daughter, Anna Butler, ten shillings to buy her a mourning ring, being in full of her portion.

Item 4th. I give and bequeath to my son, Abraham Mack Gehee, ninety-six acres of land, being in part of the dividend of land I now live on, with the houses, orchards and appurtenances belonging thereunto, to him and his heirs forever.
Item 5th. I give and bequeath to my son Abraham Mack Gehee, one negro man named Bristol, to him and his heirs forever; also one feather bed and furniture, and one large chest.
And it is my further will and testament that when my two sons, Jacob and Samuel, and my daughter, Sarah, come of age, that my said son, Abraham, do pay them five pounds each.
Item 6th. I give and bequeath to my son, Edward Mack Gehee, fifty acres of land, of the same dividend of land I now live on, belonging to my said plantation, also one man named Peter, to him and his heirs forever, on his paying to my sons, Samuel and Jacob, and my daughter, Sarah, when they arrive at the age of twenty one years, five pounds each.

My further will and desire is that my son, Jacob, shall live with my son, Abraham Mack Gehee, and when he arrives at the age of eighteen to have a share in the crop with him in case my said son, Jacob, works with him. My further will and desire is that my said land, so given, to be divided among my children, to be laid out crosswise, beginning at Neckatewanna bridge up the head line to the corner, and down the back line until it includes Abraham's portion of ninety-six acres, and so the list of my sons' parts to be laid out in this course until they each have their complement.
Item 9th. I give and bequeath to my daughter, Sarah, one feather bed and furniture, one chest of drawers, and one sealskin trunk.

Item 10th. I give and bequeath to my daughter, Mary Dickson, one bed filled with feathers, a pair of blankets, my desk and all that is in the desk. My further will and desire is that my draught mare and hogs be and remain on the plantation for the support and maintenance of my children. My cattle and sheep and hogs I desire to be equally divided among my five youngest children. Also, the last of my personal estate, likewise by lots, be equally divided among the same. I do constitute my loving sons, Abraham, Edward and Samuel Mack Gehee, my whole and sole executors of this my last will and testament, revoking and making void and disannulling all wills by me before made. In witness whereof I have set my hand and affixed my seal this twenty seventh day of July, in the year of our Lord, seventeen hundred and twenty four.

MiscPossible parents: Thomas Baytop Jr. and Elizabeth Pell. Her mother's death date is before she was born. But the late number in wikitree is completely different from the 1648 in familysearch and much closer to her husband's birth year (estimate) of 1645.

She is not listed in Baytop materials such as a big study of the Baytop family. She was called both Baytop and Bastrop.8
