Hello all -
I'm Keith Nix, looking to verify the accuracy of my line of Nixes. This is what I have:
Keith Nix
Robert Lynn Nix (B 1940, Belleville, AR)
Huey Watson Nix (siblings: Dewey, Mark, Luke, Mary, 13 in all) - b 1906 Alabama, d 1991 Livingston, TX
Huey McClain (McClane?) Nix - b1876 Marion Co., AL; d1959 Goodrich, TX
Ezekiel N. Nix - b1808 Hackleburg, AL; m. to Martha Ann Butler
William Nix - b. 1766 South Carolina (NEED TO VERIFY if CORRECT WM.)
Joseph Nix - b. 1725 Hanover, VA; d. 1800 Wake, SC
Edward Nix - b. 1686 St. Peter's Parish, VA; d. 1776 Camden, SC
James Nix - 1642-1665 Virginia (married Mary Elizaveth Lewis?)
John Nix - b. 1611 London, Eng.; d. 1685 Barbados
William Nix - 1589-1682 England
etc.
I've traced it back to Isaac Efram Nicks (b. 1425 Sussex, Eng.), IF my research is correct, and hasn't been derailed possibly by a Nix surname being adopted by a Cherokee somewhere.
Can anyone confirm my research - or debunk it? I would appreciate any help. Thanks.
