BARACK OBAMA, 44TH PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES
From Moses Teague and his first wife, Elizabeth Loftin, through their daughter, Isabella Mary Teague who married James Welborn (Wilborn), comes Teague descendant, Barack Obama. Isabella was born about 1742 in Orange County, Virginia and died about 1821 in Monroe, Kentucky. The line of descent goes this way: 1) John Teague, b. abt. 1630, 2) Edward Teague, b. 1660,
3) William Teague, b. abt. 1693, 4) Moses Teague, b. 1718
5) Isabella Mary Teague Welborn, 6) Ruth Welborn Wilson,
7) Christine Wilson McCurry, 8) Harbin Wilburn McCurry,
9) Thomas Creekmore McCurry, 10) Leona McCurry Payne,
11) Madelyn Lee Payne Dunham, b. abt 1922, d. day before the election
12) Stanley Ann Dunham Obama, 13) Barack Hussein Obama, b. 1961
Actually, Barack Obama’s pedigree reads like a who’s who. He is related to such famous people as Mary Whitaker who married Sonny Bono of the Sonny and Cher fame-- Gordon Hinckley, president of the Mormon Church—both Presidents Bush and Gov. Jeb Bush—Patricia Ramsey, mother of JonBenet Ramsey—Birch Bayh, senator and early presidential candidate—Woodroe Wilson, James Madison, Jimmy Carter, Lyndon Baines Johnson, Gerald Ford—John Glenn, the astronaut—Robert E. Lee—Jefferson Davis, president of the confederacy—Vice-President Dick Cheny--Sir Winston Churchill—Actress Park Overall (I am kin to her through the Parks lineage)—William I “the Lion”, king of the Scots who died 1214—Edward I, king of England who died 1307.
Ironically, Moses Teague was a slave owner, and his 7th-great grandson is one half black.
