Biography
Maria Bassett Stith was the daughter of Bassett Stith (1765-1816) and Mary (Long) Stith (abt.1771-aft.1817). She married Judge Joseph Daniel of Halifax, North Carolina on 1 January 1822.[1][2]
In two articles in the William and Mary Quarterly, her grandson, Wikipedia:Armistead C. Gordon, identified the children of Judge Daniel and his wife Maria as follows:
- Joseph John Daniel, Jr. Born 29 December 1823; died 13 November 1824.
- Maria Josephine Daniel. Born 11 February 1825; died 9 November 1828.
- William Alexander Daniel, born 9 February 1827; married 3 September 1850 to Mary C. Joyner of Halifax, North Carolina; died 9 April 1893.
- Maria Long Daniel. Born 20 August 1829; married 20 December 1854 to George Loyall Gordon of Halifax, North Carolina; died 27 February 1876.
- Lavinia Bassett Daniel. Born 29 March 1831; married 1 May 1850 to Turner Westrary Battle of Edgecombe County, North Carolina; died 3 August 1905.
- John Lewis Daniel. Born 24 December 1832; died 29 November 1833.[2]
Research Notes
Unfortunately, Armistead Gordon's identification of his grandfather's career culminating as a Justice of the North Carolina Supreme Court conflicts with the Wikitree profile for Joseph Daniel Jr (abt.1784-abt.1872). The text of that profile claims the same distinguished career ending with death as a North Carolina Supreme Court Justice in 1848. The data of that profile, however, is entered with Judge Daniel's death in Georgia in 1872 and his children born in Geogia from 1808 on, and his wife counted in Georgia censuses. Since eleven children have been attached to that profile, it appears best to create a separate profile for Maria's husband.
