Biography

Edward "Ned" Vann was born in North Carolina about 1740, the son of Edward Vann and Mary Barnes. The family moved to the Edgefield District in South Carolina about 1758. He is probably the Edward Vann found on a jury listing in 1780 [1] and "Edward Vann , Sen" listed in the 1800 census in Edgefield District. [2] Edward was involved in numerous land transactions, including a sale to son-in-law Robert Mosely.

Edward married Mary (possibly) King. [3]

They were the parents of several children believed to include:

Edward [4]
Margaret [5]
Joseph
Vashti (married Benjamin Jernigan; Benjamin is enumerated next to Peter Cloud on the 1810 U.S. Census [6]
Edith [7]
Mason

In 1818 the Moravian missionaries to the Cherokee wrote, "Old Ned Vann, a blood brother of the well-known James Vann's father and our Brother Crutchfield's mother, [was] in our service. He lives in Georgia and had come to this area to request that his relatives help pay his debts since he is almost constantly sick." [8]

Edward died in 1833. [9]

Is this the same Edward Vann that is listed in the 1830 Federal Census as living in Montgomery, Alabama? On the FindAGrave webpage for him, a person wrote that he moved from South Carolina to Montgomery and then after Vashti Vann died moved to Santa Rosa County, Florida, to be closer to the son-in-law and all the grandchildren and is buried there. But the person on FindAGrave did not list her sources for her biography. The daughter Edith Vann Cloud was buried in Montgomery and then transferred to the Moseley Cemetery about twenty miles south when the Kilby prison was expanded.

Edward Vann-104 (currently attached as father) made a will in 1770; it names several children; an Edward [Jr] is not among them. What sources support this Edward from being son of Edward Vann-104, please? Thanks.
