Terrill/Terrill/Tyrrell Lines


Robert Lee TERRILL [Parents] was born on 24 Mar 1841 in , Marion Co., Missouri. He died on 4 Oct 1887 and was buried in Philadelphia, , Missouri. Robert married Evelyn SAMS.

Ellsberry says that wife was a distant cousin.

Evelyn SAMS was born about 1860. She married Robert Lee TERRILL.

Said to be a distant cousin to Robert. Her birthdate is unknown. I have put it 19 years from Robert's in order to reach the child Nora's known birthdate.

They had the following children:

  F i Nora TERRILL was born in 1903. She died in 1912 and was buried in Philadelphia, , Missouri.

It is not known if this is the same Nora who is given as the child of Robert and Evalyn. This Nora's birthdate is taken from her stone.

William Harrison TERRILL [Parents] was born on 24 Apr 1813 in , , Kentucky. He died in 1880. William married Syrena SAMS on 1 Jul 1836.

Other marriages:
PHILLIPS, Sarah Ellen

Married a second time, but wife unknown.

NEW NOTE: I think that a good chance (since county matches) would be this one found on ancestry.com: "Phillips, Sarah Ellen m. Terrill, William on 19 Feb 1847 in Marion Co., MO." Most likely the first wife died in childbirth in 1846, as was common. I am going to go ahead and put her in, but it needs to be verified.

Syrena SAMS was born about 1815. She married William Harrison TERRILL on 1 Jul 1836.

They had the following children:

  M i Robert Lee TERRILL
  F ii Martha A. TERRILL was born in 1844 in , Marion Co., Missouri.
  M iii William J. TERRILL was born in 1846 in , Marion Co., Missouri.

James H. TERRILL was born on 7 Aug 1813. He died on 24 Aug 1882 and was buried in , Marion Co., Missouri. James married Catharine A..

Buried in a cemetary at Andrew Chapel, 14 miles west of Palmyra, MO is this man, his wife and the following Terrills whose relationships unknown: Bertha (1887-1932), and Harry J. (1881-1963). The relationship of Robert and Estella is assumed as birthdates would be right to be James's children. There is also buried a Josie, dau. of J.W. and M.J. (assume Terrill) who d. 12 Oct 1875, no birthdate given. This is most probably the dtr. of James's son, John W., and I have entered her so. James could possibly be (#3374), son of James Terrill, as nothing is known of this one, and he was in Missouri. I have placed children under him who are shown with him on the 1850 Marion Co. MO census, or buried next to him. He is shown as b. Kty., age 32 on 1850 Marion Co. MO census. He could also be James # 4194, 4075, 4445 or 3656.

Catharine A. was born on 13 May 1818 in , , Kentucky. She died on 17 Apr 1885 and was buried in , Marion Co., Missouri. Catharine married James H. TERRILL.

Shown as b. Kty., age 32 on 1850 Marion Co. MO census.

They had the following children:

  F i Mary Evaline TERRILL was born on 29 Jan 1841 in , Marion Co., Missouri. She died on 27 May 1914 and was buried in Philadelphia, , Missouri.

Shown as Evaline on tombstone, I have no evidence that this is the same one as the Mary E. in the 1850 census, but the birthdate is right.
  M ii John W. TERRILL was born in 1841 in , Marion Co., Missouri.

Date of birth from census places him in same year as sister; perhaps twins.
  M iii James H. TERRILL was born in 1843 in , Marion Co., Missouri.
  M iv Robert Alexander TERRILL was born in 1847. He died in 1934 and was buried in , Marion Co., Missouri.

Shown as Alexander Terrill, age 4 on 1850 Marion Co. MO census. Later was a physician apparently. There is a "Dr. Robert A. Terrill" listed on microfilm #0893713 for Andrew Chapel Cemetary near Warren, MO, Book S, Page 264, Marion Co., MO. It gives his birth and death dates as 1847-1934, and lists a wife Estelle G. (or Estella C.) Terrill 1856-1935. Since there is a James H. Terrill (7 Aug 1813 to 24 Aug 1882) listed with wife Catherine (18 May 1818 to 17 Apr 1885) in same cemetery, it is most likely this one.
  M v Ollie W. TERRILL was born in Jan 1849. He died on 5 Oct 1873 and was buried in , Marion Co., Missouri.

Identified as son of J.H. and C.A. on tombstone (says died aged 23 yrs., 4 ms. from which was determined approximate date of birth). This is accurate as he is shown on 1850 census as age 1. Tombstone calls him "Ollie W.", census denotes him as "Oliver W."
  M vi Charlie R. TERRILL was born in Dec 1852. He died on 5 Oct 1873 and was buried in , Marion Co., Missouri.

Tombstone identifies as son of J.H. and C.A. and says that he died at age 20 yrs., 10 mos., 13 days., from which was determined birthdate.
  F vii Estella TERRILL was born in 1856. She died in 1935 and was buried in , Marion Co., Missouri.

John Robert TERRILL [Parents] was born on 23 Sep 1847 in , Marion Co., Missouri. He died on 4 Oct 1919 in Philadelphia, , Missouri. John married Lucy Belle BEASLEY on 26 Oct 1875.

See his biography in "History of Marion County, Missouri", p. 745, available from the Historical Society of Missouri in Columbia (send SASE). This lists his father and mother.

Lucy Belle BEASLEY was born about 1850 in Lancaster, , Kentucky. She married John Robert TERRILL on 26 Oct 1875.


James TERRILL was born in 1811 in , , Kentucky. He died after 1850. James married 1 Hester Ann Rogers KELSO on 24 Jan 1833 in Callaway, MO.

This family is found in the 1850 Callaway Co. MO census. The connection for this James is unknown. He may be #3374, 3656, 4445, 4585, or 4068.

Hester Ann Rogers KELSO was born in 1817 in , , Kentucky. She married 1 James TERRILL on 24 Jan 1833 in Callaway, MO.

TERRILL was born about 1765. He married Martha.

Martha was born in 1773 in , , Kentucky. She married TERRILL.

This woman is next to James Terrill in the census and is probably his mother. The two women with her are possibly her unmarried daughters. Possibly the dtr. of Jonathan Terrill and Anne Butler.

They had the following children:

  F i Ladonia TERRILL was born in 1800 in , , Kentucky.

Achilles Lynch Moorman TERRILL [Parents] was born on 21 Mar 1818 in , , Virginia. He died about 1890. Achilles married Parthena Susan POINDEXTER on 26 Jan 1841.

Received in 12/97 information about this family from David L. Lott, 149 Lone Oak Rd., Longview, WA 98632-9541. I previously had him on my system only as an A. Terrill m. to Parthena, with no father.

  M iii Joseph Peter TERRILL was born on 17 Nov 1844. He died on 22 Feb 1848.
  F iv Sarah Ann Caroline TERRILL was born on 9 Mar 1846 in , Gasconade Co., Missouri. She died on 15 Aug 1918.
  F v Mary Elizabeth TERRILL was born on 17 Nov 1850. She died on 18 Aug 1906.

I received the information on this family from David Lott, 149 Lone Oak Rd., Longview, WA 98632-9541. He said that he was descended from this Mary Elizabeth, who was his great-great grandmother, all a maternal descent.

Peter TERRILL was born about 1778. He died in 1833/1834. Peter married Nancy HUTCHINSON on 12 Dec 1799.

My correspondent, David Lott gave this info on 12/97. He states that Peter is had brothers Dudley, William and John Pleasant. Dudley m. Polly Hutcherson on 27 Dec. 1801. William m. Mary Blakenship in 1816. John Pleasant m. a young widow Martha MOORMAN Keen, who was the dtr. of Achilles L. Moorman. Since no father of these brothers was given, I could not enter them directly and am not sure how they fit into my Terrill lineage system at this time. He will let me know if he finds this. He states that Peter's will was dated 26 March 1833 and probated on 10 May 1834. It named Achilles and his other children named were: Sally MARSHALL, Betsy HUTCHINSON and Mary Watts Terrill. I assume that some of these last names were from their husbands. His wife is also in his will. I found one other Moorman in my records. Zachariah MOORMAN, (4778) b. 3 Apr 1732, m. Elizabeth Ann Terrill, who was b. 7 Sep. 1738. She fits into my long line of Terrills. Perhaps these two Moormans are related somehow. Peter gave his son Achilles the middle name of MOORMAN, so it must have been felt important. Also, Archibald Terrill, (3177) b. abt 1760, m. Sarah HUTCHINSON. And, Marshalls include Lucy MARSHALL (3806), b. abt. 1785, m. Joel Terrill; Mary MARSHALL (2978) b. abt. 1855, m. John L. Terrill (2968), b. 11 May 1852.

May be the same Peter as #4438, Peter Higgins Terrill, son of Joel Terrill II and Anna Lewis.
