Charles Word [Male] b. 14 MAY 1710 St. Peter's Parish, New Kent, Virginia - d. 1792 St. Peter's Parish, New Kent, Virginia
Change: 17 JAN 2013

Extracted children s name/birth/death dates from Descendants of John Wordin WFT Vol 7. Charle s Word was reported to be born in 1710 and died in 1792 by WFT Vol. 7 #4706.

Some reports indicate wife & children:

Elizabeth Sarah Adams
b. 11 May 1723 Halifax, Halifax Co, Virginia
m. 1735
Children:
Charles Word 1740-1780
Peter Word 1742-Deceased
Cuthbert Word 1745-1780
Thomas Word 1745-1838
Judith Word 1748-1828

Nielsen Hayden genealogy provides the following:

GX5 grandfather of William Faulkner:

Charles Word (1710-1792) = Sarah (Collins?) (1710-1742)
Charles Word (1740-1780) = ?
Thomas Adams Word (1768-1831) = Justiana Dickinson (1776-1865)
Caroline Word (1798-1862) = Joseph William Faulkner (c1795-c1842)
Col. William Clark Falkner (1825-1889) = Holland Pearce (c1830-1849)
John Wesley Thompson Faulkner (1848-1922) = Sarah "Sallie" McAlpin Murry (1850-1906)
Murry Cuthbert Faulkner (Falkner) (1870-1932) = Maud Butler (1871-1960)
William Faulkner (Falkner) (1897-1962)

Note that according to William Faulkner and Southern History by Joel Williamson (1995), Faulkner's Charles Word ancestor was born in Landaff, Glamorganshire, Wales. Two things about this, though.

First, Williamson's citation for this is an item in the Ripley Public Library, Ripley, Mississippi, called "A Genealogy of the Word Family Written by James Word, December 23, 1882," which was provided to the Ripley library on an unknown date by one Eleanor MacDonald of Farmington, New Mexico. The Ripley library "has collected a vast amount of highly valuable relating to Ripley and Tippah County, the original seat of the Falkners in Mississipi." This does not suggest that Williamson's source represents the latest scholarship.

Second, most online Word genealogies appear to agree that the original Word immigrant came from Llandaff, but they push that immigrant back a couple more generations to a John Word supposedly born in Llandaff around 1650. A subset of these trees claim that the Words were originally from Scotland and merely sailed from Llandaff.

It does appear, at any rate, that there was indeed a Charles Word in Virginia, who died about 1792; who was married to a woman named Sarah; whose son Charles died in the Battle of King's Mountain in 1780; who had another son named Cuthbert who died in 1781 as a prisoner of the British on board the ship New Jersey; and who had a son named John who married Fannie Collins. We tentatively take this person to be both Patrick's ancestor and Faulkner's, wherever he was born.

I would like proof of this John Word, and John Word Jr. who m. AnnChiles. I have the book b y Mary Florence Word, "John Bryson Word, hisancestors and descendants" ( he was my gr-gr-gran dfather) and I alsobought a Word Family Tree from the Va. Archives which was a Xerox copy inf our sections that is about 28 inches by about 5 ft. very impressive butno proof for the firs t 2 generations from the i mmigrant John Wor (Word?) in 1652 to the birth of Charles in 1710 . Can anyone fill in this gapwith proof for the years from 1652 to 1710?

I am a descendant of Charles Word, New Kent Co. Va. I am seeking proofthat he is descended fr om the immigrant listed in Greer's " early Va.immigrants" as John Words, sponsored by Nathani el Bacon, al so proof ofhis son John being married to Ann Chiles. All published reference s I havefound regarding this Ann Chiles spells her husband name as Ward. St.Peter's Parish re cords lists the birth of Cha rles b. 1710, and John b.1738, Charles b. 1740. Charles is my li ne and he was killed in the battleof Kings Mountain. He and brother John fought under Col. Wa shington andsurvived the battle in which Gen. Braddock was slain, and most of theEnglish an d americans were wiped out. They were called the Va. Blues, andI can find nothing about tha t militia.
