TEAGUE, EDWARD
J.D. TEAGUE SAID EDWARD WAS A BAPTIST PREACHER. HE LIVED I
N FREDERICK CO., VA.
AND LATER MOVED TO N.C.
Alexander Co NC used to be Burke Cty, NC Sources:Teague Fam
ily Mag.
Edward Teague was born Abt 1716 in Cecil Co., MD, the son o
f William Teague & Isabella E. Pennington.
He died 1810 in Burke County, NC (now Alexander Co.) and wa
s buried 1810 in Antioch Cemetery, Alexander, NC.
Married:
He married Lurannah Sarah VAN SWEARINGEN, daughter of Thoma
s SWEARINGEN and Lydia Jane RILEY, about 1739 in Chatham, N
c (or Frederick County,VA?). Lurannah was born 15 Oct 171
3 in Queen Anne, Prince George, MD. Shedied before 1805 i
n Burks Co. NC and was buried before 1805 in Burks Co.NC.
It has also been suggested that Edward married Sarah Pric
e (born 1720?). The supposed children of Edward & Sarah ar
e given below, although either the d.o.b. for Sarah or th
e dates for her children must be inaccurate. Information gi
ven to the Resource Centre suggests that Edward & Sarah mar
ried in 1734, which again does not fit in either with Edwar
d's other marriage or the children of the supposed marriage
. Any reliable sources for this data would be welcome.
There are also alternative dates/places of birth given fo
r the children of Edward & Lurannah, leading some researche
rs to suggest that they had two lots of children named Vand
ever Swearingen, Edward, John and Lurannah, one group bor
n in Frederick County, VA and the other in Prince George Co
unty, MD. Is it possible that one group of children were ba
ptised twice (possibly after a move to another state, so th
at they were not on record')??
At the Munday-Teague Cemetery, Alexander Co., NC:
AT RIGHT FRONT CORNER OF CEMETERY FACING SIDE WAYS IS HUG
E MEMORIALSTONE:
"Rev. Edward Teague England 1720-USA 1810, Founded first Ba
ptist church in Alexander Co., NC 1797, pastor of the New M
eeting House Baptist Church- 1797 - 1810. I have found a go
od fight, I have kept the faith."
Obviously the assumption that Edward was born in England i
s incorrect -presumably someone mixed him up with his grand
father.

gen are:

ty, VA; died1810 in Christian County, KY.
