Welcome to my Watson web pages! I am interested in most of the Watson families of eastern North Carolina to some extent, but my primary interest is in my own line in Onslow, and Columbus Counties:

Joseph Watson (c1825-185?) and Sarah Jenkins of Onslow Co., NC.

- William H. Watson (1852-190?) and Mary C. Davis of Columbus Co., NC.

-- Zadie Idell Watson (1896-1963) and Thomas L. Turner of Marion Co., SC.

I am also interested in other Watsons in the region whether related to me or not (1700s through ca 1860). Check them out on my Documented Family Pages.

Note: Although my Watsons moved to Marion Co., SC in the early 1900s, they are not related to the rather large Watson family that already lived in that region. However I am related to many of those Watsons via intermarriages into other branches of my family, so I include them in my Watson research.
