Looking for Fort family line through Albert
Fort born 4-1-1758. Married Margaret Dawson
Norwood born 5-4-1782.Mary N. Fort offsring
born 9-9-1799 possibly married 1822 to Ira E.
Williams. Any info would be helpful.

Not sure what you mean by "through" Albert Fort -- ancestors or descendants?
At any rate, Albert's lineage back to the first Elias:
Albert was the son of Elias (1738-1780) Fort and Lucy (Atkinson?).
Elias was the son of George Fort (before 1700 - 1761) and Mary (?).
George was the son of George Fort (born between 1668 and 1775, died 1719) and Elizabeth Accabe Duckwood and that George was the third son of the first Elias. Some say the first Elias' father was a George.

For descendants, see "A Family Called Fort" p. 243. Descent from MARY N. FORT is not shown but descent from brother JOSIAH ALBERT Fort through son JAMES WILSON Fort is in Chart 3-31. And descent from MARY N. FORT's sister MARGARET DAWSON Fort is in Chart 3-32.

Hope that helps!

I am looking for the decendants of Mary N.
Fort. Is she a daughter of Albert Fort?
If so our family Bible shows she had at least
one offsring by the name of Jarrett Williams
apparently married 9-25-1855 to a Sarah E.
White.

She is listed as Albert's 4th Child in the book. I mentioned the descent from her siblings in my previous message because sometimes a sibling's descendants' records can point you to what you're looking for.
I did find her on FamilySearch.org. Goto http://www.familysearch.com/Eng/Search/af/individual_record.... . They show her as having married IRA E. WILLIAMS sometime before 1849.

Thank you very much Tom. Your reply has put
me in the right direction in completing my
family search. Talk to soon. Merry Christmas to you

Tom are you talking about the book called A FAMILY CALLED FORT by Homer T. Fort, Jr. and Drucilla Stovall Jones ? I found that book in the Russellville Public Library in Russellville, AR If not what book are you referring to? I have tried to obtain the above book but the publishing Co. no longer isin Midland Texas. My line is through William Hamilton FORT and Spear Forte. I really wanted to find some relatives. Let me hear from you. Try my E-mail. Sallie Parish

Ben, contact James Fort, jfort@quadro.net re:Ira Williams

Some Elias and Lucy (Atkinson?) questions if anybody ever
reads this response to the above very old posting:
0) why the question mark with Atkinson? IOW is there proof
of this Lucy's surname or not?
1) wasn't this the Elias that owned land in Edgecombe, NC?
2) did they have a daughter named Lucy as well?
3) John Piland/Pilant owned land right next door and his
first wife was named Lucy, too -- we were wondering
if there was some connection here as we are looking
for her maiden surname?
4) did Elias's wife out live him?
5) did Elias have a will?
6) did his wife Lucy have a will?

This Fort line of the first Elias goes back to Isle of Wight Co., VA.
John Piland/Pilant's line may also go back to I of W, VA
to the original James Pyland ancestor.
