DESCENDANTS OF RICHARD SIZEMORE

1. RICHARD SIZEMORE was born in 1800 near Greenville Greenville Co South Carolina and died in 1865 in DeKalb Co Alabama. . He married ELIZABETH ANN ‘BETTY' FORESTER/FOSTER about 1818 or 1819. She was born in 1804 in South Carolina and died 1 May 1879 in DeKalb Co Alabama. Her parents are FRANCIS FORESTER & UNKNOWN.  Richard & Betty are buried at Pea Ridge Cemetery DeKalb Co Alabama.

Richard is said to be the son of EPHRAIM SIZEMORE SR (1743-1836) & WINEFORD ‘WINNEY' GREEN (1745-1839), but the age of his mother would have been 55 years old when he was born. These are possibly his grandparents

The following nformation on Richard Sizemore from the Sand Mountain Melungeon Families website:

Richard Sizemore came from Spartansburg District, South Carolina and moved to Habersham County Georgia by 1822 and to Dade County Georgia about 1845 where he joined a group of other mixed breeds avoiding removal near Rising Fawn.  To credit descendants and relatives in Eastern Cherokee claims 1906-1924 which comprise two entire volumes of the Guion Miller Commission's report, the family came from North Carolina and Virginia and were Cherokee.  The name is cognate with Cismor and other Portuguese Jewish surnames, deriving from Sis(a)mai, a Judahite of the descendants of the daughter of Sheshan and Jarha, a Phoenician god's name, meaning water crane or swallow.  In Sephardic tradition applied to 'tax farmers.'  Sheshan had no sons, only daughters.  Sheshan had an Egyptian slave whose name was Jarha.  Eleasah begot Sisamai and Sisamai begot Shallum (1 Chronicles 2:34-40).  They were Portuguese Jews who came from London to Barbados and Jamestown, where they blended with the Saponi, Powhatan, Mattaponi, Cherokee, and Creek on the frontier.

Richard Sizemore was buried in Pea Ridge Cemetery, DeKalb County, Alabama on top of the mountain.  This cemetery also contains the graves of Coopers and Bundrens.  His widow Elizabeth moved to Fraction Township in the area known as Shraders Mill, where her neighbors were the Coopers and Shraders (Alabama 1866 State Census).  She was the daughter of Francis Forester and a Chickahominy woman and died May 1, 1879.

Very recent efforts spearheaded by Alan Lerwick of Salt Lake City, Utah, have traced the Sizemores back to a Michael Sizemore, a London merchant who died in 1685. Lerwick has also mapped two distinct DNA lines in Virginia and North Carolina, one continuing the original R1b gene type and the other an American Indian Q haplotype. He believes that Indian descent entered the Sizemore family with Henry Sizemore, born about 1698. The descendants of Henry’s older brother Ephraim are R1b.
