Levi Jordan Plantation

JORDAN FAMILY GENEALOGY
(Including Martin and McNeill)

Information was provided by various members of the Jordan descendant community, and put into the "Family Tree Maker" database by Carol McDavid.

I apologize if there any any information missing or entered incorrectly. Please let me know if you find something I can add or change, by sending me an email at mcdavid@publicarchaeology.org, or sending me a feedback form.. It could be that other family members may know some additional information. Occasionally no birth and death dates are included because they weren't included in theinformation provided to me; please let us know if you know some of these dates.

I last made corrections to this on December 7, 1998, based on information received from Ginny Raska, Sarah Martin, and another helpful cousin from North Carolina (and, if this cousin happens to see this, Sarah Martin would like very much to hear from you!).

Levi Jordan

Sarah Stone Jordan

This family tree posted here only carries the names forward for five generations, in order to protect the privacy of living individuals. There are some people who are still living who are mentioned here, but most of them have given their permission to be listed. If your name is on this list, and you do NOT want to have it included, or if you want some information about yourself removed, let me know and it will be removed immediately. If you are a family member and want to receive a copy of the entire file, please email me at mcdavid@publicarchaeology.org

The numbers to the left of the names refer to the generation number as descended from Levi and Sarah Jordan. A "+" to the left of a name indicates someone's spouse. See a short history of the planatation, by Ken Brown, for more information on many of the following names.
