This is a picture of the William H. Brickey family taken around 1905-1906 in Scott County, VA. I believe the back row standing from left to right are the children (and spouses) of William Brickey and his wife Nan Stone Brickey: Laura Brickey Flannery and her husband Charles Flannery, Orb Stacy and his wife Clara Brickey Stacy, James, Charlie and Pat Brickey (but not sure what order). I believe the three children on the left are John (sitting), Sarah and Mollie Brickey. These are all the children (and two spouses) of William H. Brickey and Nan Stone Brickey.
I have a separate picture of just the two little girls Molly and Millie.
I am not sure who the woman sitting between the two little girls is. Millie Stacy (Ford) is labeled. She is the daughter of Orb and Clara Stacy. I believe the woman sitting holding a baby is Nan Stone Brickey. I believe the man sitting holding a baby is William Henry Brickey. One of the babies is probably William Stacy, son of Orb and Clara. I am not sure who the other baby is, who the young boy standing is, or who the old man on the far right is.
William H. Brickey (abt 1862- 1942) is the son of Patterson Brickey and Nancy Duncan. Patterson Brickey died in 1862 in the Civil War. Nancy remarries to Bluford Southers.
Nan Stone Brickey (abt 1863- 1942) is the daughter of John Stone and Amanda Horton. William Brickey is in the 1900, 1910, 1920 and 1930 Scott Co., VA census.
Orb Stacy and Clara Brickey are in the 1900, 1910, 1920, and 1930 Scott Co., VA census.
The labeled girl, Millie Stacy Ford (abt 1901 – 1945) , is my husband’s great grandmother. Any help identifying the people in the picture is appreciated!
Thanks,

My name is william Brickey and My dad, Wiley Brickey, moved from gate city to Indiana around 1950. he told me that I was named after my great grandfather William Brickey, and was wondering if this is any relation to me.
Hi William, If your dad was from Gate City chances are you are related to this Brickey Family, somehow.
I descend from the David Clinton Cocke /Jemima Leach of the Fort Blackmore area. One of the daughters from this union (Betsey Cocke) married William Brickey. David died in 1828, so I am assuming that Betsey would have been born around the early 1800′s. I am sure that this William Brickey family is somehow connected to my William Brickey family. Any info???
Hi Mark Cox. I also descend from David C. Cocke/Jemima Leach. William & Elizabeth Cox are my 3rd Gr. Grandparents thru their son Elijah C. Brickey. I would love to compare Brickey info with you….
Hi Elizabeth, Sorry it’s taken so long to respond to this. I have notes and snippets everywhere. I think I read that (info supposedly taken from a hand written margin of the Cox [Cocke] family bible) that Betsy married into the Brickey family. I guess that makes us cousins. I descend from David, the only Cox from the Henry Cocke group to remain in Lee County, Virginia after the rest moved on to Kentucky. I am in the process of filling in blanks as I find them in my Ancestry.com page(s). Although the Brickey line is not in my direct line, I still like to plug in the names when possible.
I am also descended from David and Jemima thru William brickey marriage
Eliza Brickey married James Guy, their daughter Margret Guy married my ggrandfather James A Watson, Eliza had a sister named amanda brickey who married Henderson Cox
this family lived in Rowan Ky and Morgan ky after they married
Also my GUY family also Brickey line, moved to Indiana.
I found online several years ago (and can no longer locate the web page) a biography/obituary of a William Brickey Sr. (1779-1865) that was part of the history of the Stoney Creek Baptist Church. There was also an excerpt from the book “History of Scott County” by Addington about this church that included info about this William Brickey. It said that he married Elizabeth Cox, dau of David Cox. I printed the page and noted to myself that perhaps this William Brickey is the son of Peter Brickey who is the great-grandfather of the William Brickey in my picture. There is also a picture of William Brickey’s home online at the Libary of VA.
Hope that helps!

I believe Nan Stone was my grandfather’s sister. He was John Jesse Stone, son of John and Amanda Stone. My grandfather died before I was born. I never knew any of his family. Any info on Nan Stone would be appreciated.
