Julian Henri Picot & his wife Antoinette Sara (nee) Vann Picot & Two of Their Children, Research Report, the As It Is Series.

Copyright 2022, CABS for Reflections From the Fence


This continues what I hope I can turn into a series of posts, done in a very efficient (make that speedy fast) manner to share some research on the ancestors.  This is NOT intended to be the end all to end all report.  It's a work in progress, to show you what I have found, right or wrong. Kind feedback is welcomed via comments.

Let's begin - - 

Meet Julian Henri Picot and his wife Antoinette Sara (nee) Vann Picot.


You will note, I have very little entered in the data base about them.  That is because, frankly, I have not researched them past the connection with their children - - - 

I will point out that both have a presence at Find A Grave, Julian can be found at # 19026658 and Antoinette can be found at # 19239325.  If you visit their memorials, you will see there are 6 children linked to their parents.  Seems someone has done considerable research on this family, but for now, I am only interested in their children, Guy and Rowena. 

First let's chat about Guy:

Since my primary point of interest was in the research of his wife, Rosalind, the census enumerations ended up in her bio.  The spellings of extractions and transcriptions are a wonder to behold.

EDWARD T. DARDEN
   Mr. E.T. Darden of Como, N.C. a former resident of and native of Southampton County, died suddenly at Como, N.C., Monday morning, May 9. He was the son of the late Captain Rufus Darden of Newsoms and a brother of Jno. B. Darden and Mrs. J.H. Channing of Newsoms, having many warm friends in this section who will regret to know of his death.
   He is survived by his wife, who was Miss Tina Picot, daughter of Mrs. Antoinette Picot and the late Captain Julian H. Picot of Como, two daughters and one son, and was a brother of Mrs. C.G. Pico of Como.
   The funeral services were conducted from his late residence in Como Tuesday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock by Rev. E. Norfleet Gardner, pastor of Buckhorn Baptist Church, assisted by Rev. J.P. Essex of Newsoms and Dr. W.V. Savage of Churchland, interment following in the churchyard burying ground. The pallbearers were G.C., L.J., T.B., H.E. and H.B. Picot, John B. Darden, Jr., William Darden and J.H. Channing of Newsoms.

[Edward T. DARDEN, Southampton Co. native, d. 9 May 1921, Como, NC,  interred in Buckhorn Baptist Church Cemetery, Como, NC, 10 May 1921,  "The Tidewater News" (Franklin, VA), May 13, 1921, p. 7] 

Edward has a Find A Grave memorial at # 93925346.

Again, I point out that the parents of Edward Theophilus “Eddie” Darden are Rufus Edward Darden and his wife Martha Rebecca (nee Barham) Darden.

So, what we have is two siblings of the Picot family marrying two siblings of the Darden family.  

However, that is not the only double marriage in this gang.  Two more of Rufus and Martha's children marry siblings, two daughters, marry two brothers.  This was discussed somewhat in my post titled "Charles Edward Channing, Research Report, the As It Is Series.", published here on January 26, 2022.  Next post I shall discuss in more detail, the biological and adoptive parents of Charles, they being these daughters and sons.

If you are confused, you should have been sitting with me whilst I did the research, I had several headaches and pulled out a few strands of hair.



* Disclaimers, I use Find A Grave, Ancestry dot com, FamilySearch, several newspaper subscriptions, free sites, such as Virginia Chronicles, Virginia Chancery Cases online at the Library of Virginia and more to research my ancestors.  I pay for subscriptions, full price.

** My judgements may or may not be correct.  Transcriptions may or may not have errors.

*** Links, URL's, for the most part will not be included henceforth on my posts, as so many of them change and then I have to come back and try to re-discover and relink.  Frankly folks, I have no desire to spend my limited time here on this side of the sod with those kinds of do overs.  As researchers, or just members of the internet community, sites such as Find A Grave are easy to find, some are free to use and with the information I am sharing you, hopefully, you can duplicate the research/findings. That said, I have seen memorials at Find A Grave be removed.  If you have questions, I suggest you leave a nice comment for me. OR find the method I have outlined on my blog for contacting me.
