Looking for info regarding Cubit Waterford, in colonial America. Other Waterfords include David, Adam (possibly I II), Alexander, Granville. Locations: Virginia,
Tennessee, Indiana, North Carolina in USA, as well as Canada. Is anyone else looking?

My Waterfords were in Sullivan County, TN. They went there from Washington and Tazewell counties in VA.

Harriet Waterford, married James Coley. Their family ultimately settled in Clinton Co., OH. I have a letter that refers to a David Waterford, and property in VA.

The surnames Thompson, Day and Preston also figure in this equation. Anything familiar?

I would love to share further. You can reach me at Crocwyth@AOL.com

I've been tiring to make a connection with the name Waterford in Knox Indiana (Starke Co.) My gr grandmother Mary Canan born abt. 1860 was married to a Waterford. Her son (my grandfather) Francis M. Canan (Waterford) never knew his father and was raised by his grandparents, hence the reason behind his name being Canan. Does anyone have any information on WATERFORD's in the Knox, IN (Starke Co.) area?

My family knows of the Monroe County, Indiana "connection." David Waterford and his wife Elizabeth settled there sometime around 1850. We are interested in finding the link with the Waterford family in Virginia. Do you have anything you would be willing to share? Thanks

I'm researching Waterfords with VA, TN, OH and Canadian connections and believe we may be researching similar lines. Specifically, Letitia WATERFORD (b. @1832 in US) married my greatgrandfather John MYERS in Camden Twp, Kent Co., Ontario on Nov. 10, 1855. They had 8 children: Elizabeth, John, Jr., Florinda, Charles, Alexander, Malinda, Adam and Anna.

My Letitia WATERFORD was the daughter of Adam WATERFORD (b. VA) and Elizabeth Unknown (b. VA). Their family appears in Sullivan Co., TN (possibly Blountville) in both the 1830 & 1840 US Census. Adam is dead by 1840. By 1850 the family appears in Goshen, Clermont Co., OH and identifies the following siblings of Letitia WATERFORD: Alexander, Granville, Eniston/Emerson/Emberson, Melinda, Sarah, Lafayette, Elizabeth. Letitia's brother William has a separate family in Clermont OH by 1850 (I believe he may have married in 1839 in TN to B. Atchison). The entire family moved to Kent Co., Ontario, Canada by 1855. Emerson/Emberson WATERFORD married Mary A. GRIFFIN in Chatham in 1858; Sarah WATERFORD married Jonathan GRINAGE in 1859 in Chatham and Alexander WATERFORD married Martha Jane GRIFFIN in 1859 in Chatham. By 1861 Letita and John MYERS lived in Camden/Gore and the remaining WATERFORDS lived in Chatham. The family (other than Letitia) falls off of the Ontario Census after 1861 -- I believe they moved to BC before 1871. Alexander and William WATERFORD show up in Portland, OR in the 1880 US Census. I've found some later land references to Emberson/Emberson WATERFORD in southern California but haven't had a chance to research this further.

Please let me know if we are researching similar lines. I'd love to share research if you're interested.
