Notes for UZZIEL BAGGETT
(Uzziel means, “My strength is God.”)
Uzziel has been conjectured to be the father
of Lawrence and Allen Baggett (Baggett Family Newsletter, Issue # 11, used
with permission). This genealogy is mostly concerned with the descendants
of Lawrence. Census records giving Lawrence and Allen’s ages are
compatible with early census records of Uzziel’s famly. The fact
that Uzziel had a brother named Allen also lends credence to the conjecture
that he also had a son named Allen. Uzziel is shown on the 1800,
1810, and 1820 censuses below. Please note that one must subscribe

2. LAWRENCE "LARRY" JACKSON BAGGETT (UZZIEL5, THOMAS B.4, NICHOLAS II3, NICHOLAS I2, JOHN1) was born Abt. 1805, and died Bef. 1840. He married MARTHA "PATSY" YARBROUGH July 11, 1823 in Henry County, GA, daughter of THOMAS YARBROUGH and MARTHA GARRETT, born 1806.
i: Thomas Yarbrough d. 1840 in Henry Co GA m. Martha Garrett, b. 1770 in SC. |
The children of THOMAS YARBROUGH
and MARTHA GARRETT were:

Nancy Ray. iii: Nancy Yarbrough 1807-1876, m. 1823, Henry County, Silas Mosely. iv: Martha Yarbrough1810- ?, m. 1823, Henry County, Lawrence Jackson Baggett. v: Temperance Yarbrough 1811- ?, m.

Jr., Silas, Unknown); one male 25- 30 (Lawrence); one female 20-30 (Martha,
age 20).
Allen Baggett (adjacent to Larry): one male under 5; one male 25-30; one female 15-20 ( Lucinda, age 17).
Thomas Yarbrough Census page 220, Ancestry.com Image #43: one male 15-20; one male 50-60; one female 15-20; one female 50-60; probably the parents and siblings of Martha "Patsy," and Lucinda.
Andrew B. Baggett and his family are shown on Census page 233. Ancestry.com Image# 69. Andrew is a second cousin of Larry and Allen, and closely associated with their families, as seen in the move to Alabama.
L. Baggott and A. Baggotte are shown on a list of voters in Henry County dated October 7, 1833, and Lawrence is shown living in adjacent Coweta County while drawing in the 1832 Land Lottery.
Lawrence's date of death is estimated by his not moving to Alabama with Allen and Andrew B. Baggett, by his not being visible in the 1840 census, and by the fact that he is not shown in an 1840 land sale in which Lucinda and other daughters are represented by their husbands, but Martha "Patsy," Lawrence's wife, participates in the sale on her own behalf. All the children are there, selling the land inherited from their father ostensibly to their sister Nancy, represented by her husband, Silas Mosely.
LAND SALE
1840 14 Sep. William Yarbrough, Silas Yarbrough, John R. Richards, Martha Baggett, and Allen Baggett, all of Henry County, sold to Silas Mosely, for $300, 133 acres land, described as the west part of lots #59, 92, 93, Dist. 11, belonging to the Estate of Thomas Yarbrough. Wit: Robert Cagle, J.P., Charles Walker, J.P. Recorded 28 Sep 1840 DB J, p. 345.
Notes for MARTHA "PATSY" YARBROUGH:
Martha's age varied in the different censuses,
but in 1870, she gave her age as 64, which would make her birth year 1806.
She was the mother of Silas Mosely Messer Baggett and the stepmother
of Mary Ann Lambert. She married Lawrence Jackson Baggett,
was widowed by 1840, and then as Martha Baggett, ne้ YARBROUGH,
married Seth H. Lambert in 1845. Her son Silas Mosely Messer Baggett,
married his stepsister, Mary Ann Lambert, the daughter of Seth H.
Lambert and Caroline (unknown).
The Leon County, Texas, Baggetts are descended
from Martha Yarbrough's son, Silas Mosely Messer Baggett and Mary Ann Lambert.
The 1850 census of southeastern Carroll County GA shows Martha in her marriage to Seth Lambert. This was the second marriage for both Martha and Seth. He is shown as Seth H. Lambreth 35, and she as Martha 41; also shown are their first children probably born in 1844. (View this census record in the Notes for Silas Mosely Baggett, who married his stepsister, Mary Ann Lambert, the daughter of Seth.)

time as his cousin Andrew. Allen settled in Tallapoosa County AL which
is adjacent to Chambers County AL where cousin Andrew B. Baggett settled
when he left Henry County. Both men came to Alabama around 1840. By this
time, Allen had taken a second wife, Sarah A. Perhaps Lucinda died. We
do not know what happened to Allen and Lucinda's little son.
In 1850, the year that John Thomas was born to Allen and Sara. Allen moved to Jefferson County, GA, in time to be counted on the November 1850 Federal census with his wife Sarah A. and his daughter and son.
