Jane "Janey" Salmon Wood was born to John R. Salmon (1735 - 1803) and Susanah Lewis (1740 - 1802). Her father was born in Virginia and her mother was also born in Virginia. She had thirteen siblings: John, Elizabeth, Elijah, Martha, William, Henry, Mary, Winifred, Robert, Susannah, Anna, Reuben, and James Salmon.
Mary (Salmon) McEntire was born on July 16, 1772 in Virginia United States. Family, friend, or fan, this family history biography is for you to remember Mary (Salmon) McEntire.
Mary Salmon was the daughter of John Salmon Sr. & Susannah.Her father was so upset with her, that when she got married he wouldn't sign his name as a Witt. to their marriage in Halifax Co Va. Because she was with child before she got married, I think this upset John so much. She married John McEntire who wasn't a very nice person at all, She passed away 23 years young when she passed away, maybe during child birth, because they had two children, and I am sure were having another one, and she must have passed away.
John McEntire remarried, and that wasn't a good thing. One day they took the children to see the Salmon's, well they noted that the boy had burned ears, the step mother was taking them and burning their ears for punishment for being boys, the Salmon's didn't like this at all, they got into a fight and the Salmon's won, they took the two children of Mary's away from them.
This story is online.
It was but 7 years later her father John Salmon Sr passed away, sometimes i think the grief got him.

Winifred “Winney” Salmon was born about 1773 in Halifax County, Virginia. She married John Boyd December 10, 1793 in Halifax County, Virginia. They had seven known children. She died before 1850 in Dekalb County, Georgia. John was the son of Thomas Andrew Boyd (born about 1740 in Virginia) and Sara D. Watkins (born about 1751 in Virginia).
James Harrison Salmon was born about 1783 in Halifax County, Virginia. His first marriage was to Phebe Wood (Trailer 70) in Halifax, VA in 1805. 24 They had two known children. Phebe was born about 1784 in Halifax County, Virginia; she died about 1815 in Halifax County, Virginia. His second marriage was to Dicy Walker; they had eight known children. Dicy was born about 1800 in Halifax County, Virginia; she died about 1896 at Bulls Gap, Tennessee. He died February 5, 1869 in Hawkins County, Tennessee. He was mentioned in his father’s will. The family of James and Dicy Salmon is found in Greene County, Tennessee in the 1850 US census.
James Harrison Salmon, Baby boy of John Salmon Sr. & Susannah Harrison? I believe its Harrison, because James was named after her surname, every family names one child after the mother's surname, either a middle name or first name. In John's Will James is to get all his land and Mill after the passing of his mother, Well he did in 1806 after his mother passed he lost his father's land the Mill, and all his belongings. He moved his family to Tennessee, He married first Phoebe Traylor 1786-1815 They had three children, she died during childbirth I am sure. Then second wife was Dicie Kidd/Walker, 1809-1896 they had 8 children.

John Salmon Jr. was the son of John Salmon Sr. 1738-1803 John was born abt. 1762 death before 1830 He married a Martha Kidd 1762-1850, I haven't seen where he owned any land in Halifax county. I found the name of his wife in Judgement records at the courthouse in Halifax Co Va. only a few got to look at those documents. I never saw anyone else marry him.
John had a son who was my 3rd great grandfather John Salmon 1790-1855, & Agnes Torian 1800-1844, They sold their land in Halifax Co Va. and moved to Kentucky in 1833 with Agnes Torian's brother and their family, along with the Gee Family. They moved to Trigg Co Ky, John Salmon 1790-1855 took his brother Armstead Salmon, and his family, they also took their mother Martha Kidd, Martha & Agnes are both buried on the old homestead in Trigg Co Ky. I have been to the land and talked to the owner of the land, he knew about where they were buried, it was in a wooded area on the farm.

John Salmon was born about 1762 in Halifax County, Virginia. It is not known whom he married; they had two known children. He served as a corporal in the War of 1812; Ancestry states that a Sarah Wilson was collecting pension for her husband, John Salmon (1760-1837). Another listing states that he purchased 141 acres from a Noel & Nancy Burtin in 1827. He died about 1830 in Halifax County, Virginia.
One of these two children was John Salmon, who was born in 1790 in Halifax County, Virginia; in Halifax County, Virginia, on December 12, 1822, he married Agnes Torian (born about 1800 in Halifax County, Virginia and died September 7, 1844 in Trigg County, Kentucky), they had seven children and he died August 4, 1855 in Christian County, Kentucky.
Henry Salmon was born in 1771 in Halifax County, Virginia. He married Sara Wood January 4, 1794 (at the courthouse) in Halifax County, Virginia. They had nine known children. Henry died in 1835 in Halifax County, Virginia. Sarah was born in 1774 in Halifax County, Virginia and died after 1830 in Halifax County, Virginia.
Robert Reuben Salmon was born about 1774 in Halifax County, Virginia. He married Susannah Grant December 24, 1798 in Halifax County, Virginia (confirmed on “Halifax County, VA – Vitals – Marriages sorted by Grooms 1753-1800” from book: A History of Halifax County (Virginia) by Wirt Johnson Carrington). They had three known children. Susannah was born about 1776 in Halifax County, Virginia, daughter of Burwell Grant (1750-1801) and Charlotte Featherston (1755-); she died before 1850 in Montgomery County, Tennessee. Robert died after 1850 in Montgomery County, Tennessee.
John Salmon Sr. was born in 1738 died in 1803, Married Susannah? Could be Harrison, he owned a Water Grist & Saw Mill called the Salmon's Mill Pond in Halifax County, I have been there saw where it was, walked all over his land. He owned over 100 acres at the time of his death. His son James was to get the land after his mother Susannah passed, she did pass in 1806 and James started to sell the land, then he got into debt very badly and lost all the land his farther owned, the Mill, all his furniture, so he and his family moved to Tennessee.
John Salmon Sr. was not in the War! He was on the British side of things, He collected the Tithes from people for the Church Of England he did this for 6 months. He was paid with Tobacco,. He did have to go to the Muster meeting, because every well bodied man had to go to the meeting's but John didn't like it they had to pay 4 dollars to cross the Dan River to get to them, so he started a petition to stop the 4 dollar fee.
His family came in from England to Conn. to Mass. to New York, and then into Virginia. I have found them all the way back to Cornwall England. His grandfather William Salmon wrote a book on Marriages and Deaths, "The Salmon Records" by William Salmon you can buy it online. Its about all of them in Southold NY,..
John Salmon Sr and his children could read & Write, he taught them well. I researched this family for 20 years, I live close to Halifax Co Va. I met other Salmon/Solomon's from Halifax Co Va. they are all DNA related to me.
John Salmon Sr. is a very popular man because everyone thinks he belongs in their family and people get his children wrong all the time. I wish I could give them all what I have learned about them, but they wouldn't believe me.

Susannah's last name has never been actually found in any document, I worked in the Halifax County, Virginia Courthouse for 15 years looked through very Document you could look through, No last name! The only one it could be was Harrison, because her baby boy was named James Harrison Salmon , they always named one of the children after the mother's maiden name.

Susanah Salmon
Her maiden name has been drawn from my personal records and has yet to be confirmed. One listing suggests her name was Susannah Bomar, born in 1758 in Halifax, Virginia; died in 1808 in Halifax, Virginia. However, the mother of John Salmon (born in 1762) would have to have been born prior to 1744.
