Revolutionary Pension record number S.31761
A Certificate of Pension was issued the 30th day of July 1832 in Greensboro
GA. He was to receive $40.00 per year.
A letter dated 5 November 1832, Meriwether Co. GA, stated that Tobias Honea
was born 25 April 1762 in Nash County, NC where he was raised and lived until
after the Revolution. He entered the Militia Infantry as a volunteer in 1780
and had 4 terms of service totaling 14 months, being discharged for the final
time in August 1782. After the Revolution he removed from NC to Pendleton
District SC where he lived 18 or 19 years. Removed then to Gwinnett County,
GA, then to Dekalb Co., then to Carroll Co., and then to where he now lives in
Meriwether Co., GA. Also in this 4 page letter is a history of his military
service.
On the 11th of June 1833 another letter is recorded which states he came to
this new county of Meriwether March 1829 from DeKalb Co. GA which is 5 miles
from his present residence. The letter explained the reason he did not have a
Clergyman as a witness was that he has lived there only 5 years and resides in
a remote, sparsely settled part of the county .
Transfer of pension letters:
13 March 1838, transfers pension from GA to Benton Co. AL, stating the reason
for the move was that his children have all removed to this state and he will
live with them.
17 April 1838, from the War Department Pension Office, transfer from the Roll
of Georgia to that of Decatur, AL.
8 January 1839, a letter from the Treasury Dept. stating that the pension was
paid at the Huntsville, AL Agency.
14 September 1840, a letter requesting a change from Decatur, AL to Meriwether
Co. GA, where he expects to permanently reside.
11 October 1840, a letter to Washington City, there is a request for the
pension payment to be transferred to the Georgia Agency.
21 July 1841, letter from the Comptrollers Office states that the pension of
$40.00 has been paid to the widow of Tobias Honea, a pensioner on the roll of
the Georgia Agency.

I have found in other peoples records that Abner Sr. (born 1756 in NC) was the father almost all of the SC Honeas of the late 1700's except Tobias. I cannot tie Tobias to Abner who I think are brother s or 1st cousins, except by association. I have found other Honey's in North Carolina in Edgecombe & Nash Counties (Nash was made from 1/2 of Edgecombe County). I have found a John Honey sent from Eng land on the convict ship `Supply' in 1732 to Baltimore. I have found Hone's & McHones in Virginia in 1700's. I have also found Honea's, Mahoney BeHoney's, Honey's in Massachusetts going back to the ea rly 1600's then to King Edward "Longshanks" of England. I have found 4 Honey's in the Virginia Census of 1790. I found Honey's listed as fighting for the Tories in the Revolutionary War.

Notes from Brenton Bailey:
'In the Pendleton District South Carolina Deeds 1790-1806 Tobias' ismentioned on page 349: as a witness, with Henry Green, of Betty Honeyreleasing Dower to William Anderson. Oaths given to Sam Houston , J.P.January , 1804.
on page 356: as selling land on Big Creek of Saluda River for $100 toJohn Green on November 14, 1804. William, Abner, George, Sarah, Thomasand
Heads of Families NC at the First U.S. Census 1790 lists Tobias Honey onpage 88 as having 1 male over 16, 1 male under 16, 3 females,Hillsborough District, Clatham County. Abner pg 39, Elias pg 36 , & Thomaspg 37 Honey's also listed.
I have found in other peoples records that Abner Sr. (born 1756 in NC)was the father almost all of the SC Honeas of the late 1700's exceptTobias. I cannot tie Tobias to Abner who I think are brother s or 1stcousins, except by association.
I have found other Honey's in North Carolina in Edgecombe & Nash Counties(Nash was made from 1/2 of Edgecombe County). The earliest is Thomaslisted as a witness to a land sale 11-14-1743. Another in 1 753 showsThmas & John (brothers I think) as chainbearers on the survey of land fora piece of land. These two mean might be Tobias & Abner's fathers orfather & uncle as the christian name "Thomas" is v ery prevelant in thefamily. Thomas shows up again in 1756 buying land with John Honey aswitness. More show Thomas Honey selling land to William Honey in 1767,land granted thomas in 1760. Another show s Thomas Honey, Sr. buying land9-19-1760 with Thomas Honey, Jr. being a chainman.
I have found several Honeas arriving in the South pre-1760. Using the"Passenger & Immigration Lists Index". I found: James Honey arrivedVirginia 1704/John Oney (alias Honey) sent from England on the c onvictship
Supply' in 1726 to Annapolis, MA/John Honey arrived VA 1741/JosephHoney in April 1742 to Prince George Co., MA/Samuel Oney arrived Oct1729@Annapolis, MA/George Honey arrived MA 1753.
I have found the surnames Hone, Honey & Hovey in Virginia in 1700's. Thefirst is Captain Theopolis Hone evidently a early Jamestown settleraround 1620. Theo shows again in 1667 in a land title search . Again withhis daughter. The other places I have found these surnames are in patentsfor land given by the crown or state to persons who took in the newlyindentured servants (Poor people or convicts) . You took so many people,you got so much land. Theo. Hone, Jr. and Thomas Hone get 1472 acres for15 people. The last two don't make sense but the dates are right. JamesHovey & Margaret Hovey (the lat e Margaret Dixon) gets 600 acres for 12person 10-23-1703. The next year 10-23-1704, William aylett recieves 1000acres for 20 people among them James Hovey (Honey).
I have also found Honea's, Mahoney BeHoney's, Honey's in Massachusettsgoing back to the early 1600's then to King Edward "Longshanks" ofEngland. I have found 2 Honey's in the Virginia Census of 1790 ( 1782Reconstructed) James & William. I found Honey's listed as fighting forthe Tories in the Revolutionary War.
