This is where the line gets questionable, there is no irrefutable evidence of who James C D’s parents are, it can be inferred that it is Frances Frank Stringer in that James named one of his sons Francis Stringer, and a gentleman named Drew Storie Esq. posted this online in 1997:
(STRINGER/PROVIDENCE) I am searching for information on FRANCIS STRINGER who was born in North Carolina in 1763 and died in Washington Co., AL about 1819. I beleive that he married a JEANETTE ?? I also beleived that his parents were FRANCIS STRINGER (sr) and LUCRETIA ? Francis sr fought as a Captain in the Revolutionary War for the Burke Co., GA militia. He was killed about 1778. Lucretia remarried a HENRY FERGASON. Francis jr and Jeanette hadat least 6 children: WILLIAM, ELIZABETH, SOPHRINA, PRICILLA, WALTER F., JAMES C.D. WILLIAM STRINGER m. 1st MARY PROVIDENCE and 2nd ELIZABETH MARTIN WILLIAM was born April 14 1795 - Baldwin Co., GA and died December 7, 1863 Clarke Co. AL WILLIAM and MARY'S children were: BARBRA B., SARAH A.E., WINNEY, ALEXANDER J.S., FRANCIS M., ELIZA JUDITH, SETH P., JOHN R.L., WALTER PORT and JESSE S. I would also like information on MARY PROVIDENCE who was born abt 1792 in South Carolina and died Sept 24 1857 in Clarke Co. I have no information on her parents. I have found a WILLIAM PROVIDENCE in the 1790 South Carolina census but I find him no where else.”




This leaves the author to infer that James C D Stringer is a descendent of Francis Frank Stringer. After all, how many Stringers could have been in Washington County Alabama?
