Halifax County was derived from Prince George's County in 1752. Census records were destroyed by British in War of 1812, but some of Halifax and other counties was reconstructed from records of state enumerations in 1782, 83, 84, and 85, and published by the GPO in 1908.

Monuments have been erected by the DAR in Oak Hill Cemetery, behind Oak Hills Christian Church, in Kendrick, MS which is in Alcorn County, Northeast of Corinth, MS. It appears on a highway atlas, northeast of Corinth, close to the TN border. Jack and Fran GLIDEWELL were in Kendricks when they first discovered the "monument" in the Cemetery of Oak Hill Christian Church. They are in memory of Nash, and two of his grandsons, Robert and William (sons of Nash's son, Robert).
From "The Family of Nash Glidewell or a Lesson in Intermarriage" by Dawn Watts Westfield of High Springs, FL: "Nash bequeathed his son, John, a tract of land on the north side of Hico on the upper side of Nashes Branch plus Nash's old tract of land, including the land he purchased of Daniel Dean (Halifax Co., VA, Deed Book 8, pg 336) This deed was dated 19 Mar 1772 and contained 75 acres on Larkins Branch. According to F. Briggs Elliot, a native of the area, Larkins Branch is located in the Red River District near Shady Grove UMC; modern day state route 602 and 744. John was also bequeathed two negros, named Glasgow and Ted. John married Ann Whitlow on 30 Aug 1785 in Mecklenburg Co., VA (Mecklenburg Co., VA Marriages)."
Nash Glidewell b.1721 Prince George Co. VA, d.1795 Halifax Co. VA, was part-owner of a modest tobacco plantation in Halifax Co. VA with his younger brother Robert Glidewell b.1722. Nash Glidewell was an American Revolutionary War Soldier at Valley Forge according to documents at the National Archives. Judging from his birthdate, he was in his 50's when he was in the military; not surprising for the times because experts claim that in the American Revolutionary War, the U.S. was drafting almost any man that could walk regardless of age. He is listed as a witness on several area wills of the time. Nash Glidewell also left a detailed will, which lists the children of he and his wife Martha (?) (surname unknown but thought to be Bannister).
The Family of Nash Glidewell of Halifax Co. VA (or A Lesson in Intermarriage) Nash Glidewell, the son of Robert and Elizabeth Glidewell, was born on 19 June 1721. He was baptized the next month on 21 July in the Bristol Parish of Virginia. His brother, Robert, was born just sixteen months later on 23 October 1722 and a sister Susan was born sometime later in the 1720s but the record is illegible as to the exact year.1 The transcript of the parish register does not show a baptism date for Susan, but for some reason Robert wasn't baptized until 19 March 1729. An entry in the Bristol Parish Vestry Book, dated 14 April 1728, states the following: "Robert Glidewell being afflicted with cancer in his face which hath made him unable to labour for his livelihood, it is ordered that the Church Warden find him necessary clothing and likewise that John Browden find him necessary board, and he to be allowed 100 lbs. of tob[acco] a month." A year or so later on 3 August 1729, Elizabeth Glidewell petitioned the court that she was a poor widow unable to care for her son Robert and wanted him bound out to a Thomas Clemmons.2 Nash, only about eight years old at the time, may have been raised with relatives. A Tarance Lamb Glidewell, son of Elizabeth Glidewell, born in January of 1733 was baptized in March of 1734.3 Nash appears in the records of Halifax County, Virginia as early as 1755,4 but records do not appear to indicate that his brother Robert was in the area. A Nancy Glidewell was reported to be a cousin of Nash's daughter Mary5 and if that relationship is correct, perhaps Nancy was a daughter of Nash's brother Robert. Nancy married Thomas Cole, a teacher in Halifax County.6 In May of 1762, Nash purchased 383 acres on Hyco Branch from William Byrd and the next month, purchased 400 acres on Lick Branch from him.7 In September of 1766 Nash along with Thomas Tindal was an appraiser of Richard Griffen's estate8 and on 10 March 1767, Nash purchased a slave named Glasgow from the estate of Hampton Wade.9 Nash's wife was named Mary according to a dower relinquishment to property that Nash sold to William Goode in 1767, but is not mentioned again in later records.10 She is said to have been Martha Bannister, daughter of John Bannister IV and his wife Wilmet[te]. Martha Bannister was reportedly born 31 December 1722 in Bristol Parish, Prince George County, Virginia.11 Nash participated in the Revolutionary War as a private in the 10th and 14th Virginia Regiment of the Continental Line.12 He enlisted 14 February 1778 for a period of one year.13 Records from the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) are available. In a time when the thought that females had brains was a rare idea, Nash's daughters were witnesses to deeds and such even before they were married. On 3 July 1779, Nash gave his daughter Rachel one negro slave Lucy and his two daughters Judith and Elender were witnesses. A few days later on 12 July, Nash sold 60 acres to a John Heath of Granville County, North Carolina. His children Robert, Elliner, and Judy Glidewell were witnesses to this deed.14 Nash wrote his will on 14 July 1794. Joseph Fontain signed as one of the witnesses to it; Nancy Loftis put her mark and Lacy Loftis put his mark as witnesses also. Within six months, it was recorded in court on 26 January 1795. In it, Nash named all of his children in the following order:15 His son Robert was bequeathed the tract of land he lived on and also the tract of land lying below Nashes Branch on the north side of Hico River that Nash had purchased of David Christopher16 plus two negros. Robert was probably born around 1747. His son Nash Glidewell Jr. first came on the Halifax County, Virginia personal property tax list in the year 1789; if this indicates he was age 21, Nash Jr.'s birthdate would be calculated around 1768.17 If Robert was at least 21 when Nash Jr. was born, then Robert would have been born by 1747. Nash bequeathed his son John a tract of land on the North side of Hico on the upper side of Nashes Branch plus Nash's old tract of land including the land he purchased of Daniel Dean.18 John was also bequeathed two negros, named Glasgow and Ted. John married Ann Whitlow on 20 August 1785 in Mecklenburg County, Virginia.19 She may have been a sister of Thomas Whitlow who married John's sister Hannah, as an Anna Glidewell was a witness to Thomas Whitlow's will. Daniel Goode and Joseph Pinson were named executors of his will.20 Nash's daughter Mary Goode was given the negro which was already in her possession. She married William Goode of Albemarle County. A record of their marriage has not been found but Nash gave William two hundred acres for natural love and affection in 1767 just nine months prior to the birth of their first son.21 The land may have been a dower or wedding gift and may give a close idea of their marriage date. Mary and William had three sons, Daniel Campbell Goode, John Goode and William Goode; and at least one daughter Elizabeth Goode. These children intermarried with the children of Thomas and Nancy (Glidewell) Cole. His next daughter Edy Gill was given a negro named Simon that was already in her possession. Her husband's first name may have been Joseph or Jacob, as there was a Joseph Gill, Sr., a Joseph Gill, Jr. and a Jacob Gill all living in Halifax County in 1782.22 His daughter Sarah Glass was allowed the negro named Beck that she had disposed of. Her husband may have been Daniel Glass who lived in the same vicinity as Nash in 1785.23 DAR records list her as Sarah Gladys who married Humphrey Harris, but this is an error undoubtedly due to reading the original copy of Nash's will incorrectly, where the double "s" symbol is used in Sarah's married name.24 Nash confirmed in his will to his daughter Rachel Elliott the negro named Lucy that he had deeded her. Rachel married Bartlett Elliott. This marriage obviously occurred after 1776, since she signed as Rachel Glidewell when she witnessed the will of William Andrews on 5 June 1776.25 Perhaps Nash's gift of the slave to her in 1779 was because of her recent or impending marriage. Bartlett was born before 1769 to John Elliott and Ann Loftis (daughter of William and Elizabeth Loftis). His brother Thomas married Sylvania Jones, daughter of Reuben and Sarah Jones. Sylvania's sister, Mary "Polly" Jones, married Daniel C. Goode.26 Nash confirmed to his next daughter, Judith Harrison, "my right to the negro Dale[?] she disposed of." Judith married Presley Harrison and they had, among others, Jane, who may have been the mother of Ambrose Hudson. Ambrose Hudson married Lucinda Goode. She was the youngest daughter of William and Mary (Glidewell) Goode's son John and his second wife Elizabeth Cole (daughter of Thomas and Nancy Glidewell Cole).27 Another daughter of Judith and Presley's was Mason Harrison who married William Stewart. Three of the Stewart sons married granddaughters of Mary Glidewell and William Goode.28 Nash confirmed to his daughter Elinder Davis his right to the negro boy Sam that she disposed of. Elinder died before Nash wrote his will and Nash stipulated that the negro boy was the only claim to his estate that her husband, Joseph Davis, should have. Nash did indicate that Elender's six children should have their equal part of such estate as would have come to her "supposing that she had been living". Nash gave his daughter Hannah Whitlow a negro boy already in her possession. Hannah was born circa 1766 as she stated that she was 81 years old when she applied for a widow's pension in October of 1847.29 She married Thomas Whitlow in January of 178430 and they had three children: John Nash Whitlow, Jane Whitlow, and Mary/Polly Whitlow. After Thomas's death, which occurred between July and October of 1797,31 two of his children, John Nash and Jinney, chose their uncle Robert Glidewell as their guardian.32 Later in January of 1803, John chose his cousin, Daniel C. Goode, as his guardian. At the time, Daniel Goode was also his sister Polly Whitlow's guardian.33 Hannah married William Irvin about 1800 and he died about 1833.34 They are listed as William and Hannah Owen on the marriage record of her daughter Jane Whitlow to Hiram Sizemore.35 Hannah was listed as Hannah Irvine age 80 in the household of her grandson, James Whitt in the 1850 U. S. census.36 She wrote her will on 10 August 1850 and it was probated in 1854. In it, she gave her whole estate to her daughter Mary Whitt, one dollar to the children of her son John Whitlow, deceased and one dollar to her daughter Jinney Sizemore.37 Jane or Jinny Glidewell was the only daughter not married at the time Nash wrote his will, and was presumably the youngest daughter. She was bequeathed the negro girl in her possession named Dinah; who was probably a personal maid to Jane. Not long after Nash's demise, death again visited the household. On 4 March 1796 an inquisition was taken at the house of Joseph Pinson in Halifax before Thomas Watkins, coroner. Upon viewing the body of Dynah a negro girl, the property of Nash Glidewell, those charged discovered that sundry marks of violence appeared on Dynah, and that she died of those wounds on the first instant [meaning the 1st of March] on the plantation of Nash Glidewell, and that the wound was given by persons unknown. This inquisition was recorded in court on the 28 March. Daniel Good and Jacob Gill were among those signed who were at the inquiry.38 Jane Glidewell was charged with this felony and was subsequently arrested. The case was brought to court on Monday, 14 March 1796 and Jane pleaded not guilty. Witnesses testified on behalf of the Commonwealth and Jane was "fully heard in her own defense" The court found her not guilty and she was acquitted of the charge.39 1Births from the Bristol Parish Register 1720-1798.

Glidewell in Dinwiddie County. 4Halifax County, Virginia Order Book 2, part 1. Nash was ordered to be part of the gang to clear and keep the road between Larkin Johnson's Ferry and John Boyd's Ferry. Since Halifax County was formed in 1754 from Lunenburg County, perhaps earlier records on Nash may be found there. 5Virginia Cousins, G. B.

361. Martha
Some researchers think Martha BANNISTER, but Martha BANNISTER, married Colonel Robert BOLLING.
Some researcher believe her maiden name to be TIGHLMAN or Tillman, but no definite proof. There were many families in the area with this surname.
362. Henry Y. WHITLOW
Henry and older brother James moved to Lunenberg Co., VA about 1760. Their land fell into Mecklenburg Co., VA when it was formed.
Will recorded Aug 11 1783 Mecklenburg Co., VA. His wife, Anne was the daughter of a MEALER. She is named in his will. Some relevant documented information is that some sources say that their daughter (Nancy) Ann Mealer WHITLOW was born in 1767. Some sources say 1776 but that would not fit our hypotheses and could well be a transposition of 1767 in copying. Further, a 1776 birth would make her nine years old when she married.
Many sources agree that John G. Glidewell was born in 1760, seven years before his wife and died in 1836. Both facts fit these hypotheses. They married in 1785. Sister-brother marriages such as (Nancy Ann Whitlow) & John G. GLIDEWELL followed by Hannah GLIDEWELL and Thomas WHITLOW were documented in other families of the time.
Children listed in the will are:

Notes for RODOLPHUS HUGH WHITLOW:
R.H. Whitlow, secretary & Manager of the Mutual Aid Union, with offices at Rogers, is a self educated man who owes nothing to the advantages aids that ordinarily push men forward, but has worked his way steadily upward, placing his dependance upon the substanial qualities of industry, perserverance & integrity.
The proverbial Seventh child has never been accorded educational opportunities, but in the school of experience he has learned many valuable lessons & through wide reading, study & close observation has become a well informed man. When 12 years of age he was obliged to seek hi own livelihood & obtained work as a farm hand, recieving a salery of $6.00 per Month.
He was next employed in a Gin Mill & later in a Grist Mill & when he had reached the age of 20, he became a clerk in a store. In 1905 he came to Arkansas, first locating at Heber Springs and in July of 1907, he came with his Bride to Rogers, his total cash capital amounting to $62.00. Here he establised the Mutual Aid Union, which has since enjoyed a prosperous existance and he is the oldest man connected with the institution. He was made Vice President & General Manager of the business but in 1920 was serving in the capacity of Secretary & Manager. This is one of the most subtantial organizations of the kind in the State, its splendid development being due to his 14 years, has put almost 80 million dollars worth of insurance in force for the Mutual Aid Union, which now stands as a monument to his enterprise and busines ability.
Mr. Whitlow gave his political allegiance to the Democratic party and fraternally he is identified with the Benevolent Protective Order of Elks, of which he is a past Exalted Ruler, and he is also connected with the Masons.
He has fought life's battles unaided and has come off a victor in the strife. His fellow townsmen attest his sterling worth and he has gained a wide circle of friends during the period of his residence in Rogers.

416. William TEAGUE
In 1697, after Edward’s death, Susan took her children and moved to Spesutie Hundred, Baltimore County (now Harford County). Emanuel Smith lived in Spesutie Hundred -“bayside near the mouth of the Susquehanna River.” Here the family remained until William bought land in Elk’s Hundred where his father’s property was located. Edward’s children all married in Spesutie Hundred. When William sold his father’s tract of land called Teague’s Delight on 5-14-1714 for “10 pounds of lawful silver money of Great Brittaine”, the deed specifically states that William was of Baltimore County.
Teague's Delight: This area has a stone fireplace that is supposed to make the spot of the house that was built there at the time. Girlscouts utilize the area today as a meeting place. (2007)
When William became of age (21), he inherited his father’s property. Proof of this exists in the deed prepared 5-14-1714, when he sold 100 acres to Abraham Pennington for 5 pounds “located at the head of Saw Creek on the east side of the Susquehanna River laid out for one hundred sixty acres of land, being part of a tract of land purchased and taken up by Edward Teague, ye said William Teague’s father deceased”. The deed gives the exact dimensions as Edward Teague’s property.
About 1719/1720, William moved back to Cecil County to the land of his father’s that he kept: Pembroke (160 acres) and Teagues Delight (30 acres). To that acreage, he added the following tracts:
Cecil County Maryland Deeds:
1716 purchased Teagues Endeavor 100 Acres
6-13-1732 Teagues Chance 58 Acres Patented Certificate #979
1734 Teagues Choice 50 Acres
6-10-1734 Teagues Forrest 100 Acres Patented Certificate #981
6-10-1734 Hopewell 50 Acres
These tracts of land were located in Elk Hundred, Cecil County. William owned 548 acres in Cecil County, not counting the 100 acres he sold to Abraham Pennington..
William could not read and write and signed his name with an X, but he could correctly spell the name Teague. In 1714, he corrected the misspelled name on the land records of his father.
7-13-1744—William was assignee of John Baldwin.
8-17-1751---William Shepherd was a witness to the deed where William Teague sold
Land to Robert Flushes.
St. Mary Anne’s Parish records show that the first five children were christened at St. Mary Anne’s.William son of Edward was in possession of his fathers land. One tract of land called "Tegg's Delight," after the death of his father, or when he became of age, father Edward died young. William in 1714 at the age of 21 sold his property the deed states he is planning to leave Cecil Co. In abt. 1737 he migrated to Frederick Co., Va. in 1751 on to the Carolinas (Rowen Co., NC). Source Mike Pulsipher
It has been documented that twenty-four individuals, families, and family groups (parents and adult children with their families) moved from Cecil County, Maryland to Frederick County, Virginia in that time period. William also began preparing to leave, by selling his land:
9-1-1736 Teagues Forest, 100 acres, to Joseph Frazier
of Lancaster County, PA.
6-18-1737 Teague’s Delight, 130 acres, to John Graham
“one hundred twenty pounds Current Lawful
money of the Colony of Pennsylvania”
William’s entire family moved to Frederick County, Virginia (then called Orange County) about 1737, where they lived for fourteen years, settling on Hite-Van Metre lands in the central part of Virginia in the area of Siler City.
A small stream, Teague’s Run, empties into the Potomac in the vicinity of Shepherdstown, and probably got its name from having its source, probably a spring, on the old Teague properties.WILLIAM TEAGUE, SON OF EDWARD

14. Mary**
**One site on RootsWeb gave another child, Mary Teague, the youngest, whose birth was proved by a family Bible.
***Back at that time, it was common to name a later child the same name as an earlier child who died.
Isabella signed away her dower rights when William sold property until 1738, when she signed no more deeds. It is thought she had died by 1738.Deeds in Frederick Co.,VA show the names of three of his sons.
William bought and sold so much land that it was difficult to determine exactly how much land he owned. Some of his land transactions follow:
Virginia
On 6-20-1742, William bought 88 acres from Richard Pendall. Then he bought 145 more acres from Richard Pendall, located on a branch of the Shenandoah River called Cattail Branch.
He bought 121 acres lying on the Upper Potomac River from James Brown “lying on southside of Cohongoluta River.” This was the name of the Potomac River above its confluence with the Shenandoah River.
On 10-11-1750, he was granted 145 acres from Thomas, Lord Fairfax.. In all, he owned at least 500 acres of river and creek bottom land.
William polled his vote for Major Blackborn for Burgess in the King and Queen County, Virginia election in 1741. (History of the Teague Name, p. 65)
William lived in Frederick County, Virginia for fourteen years where he operated a ferry. Proof of his ownership of the ferry came from court documents when a wagon road was ordered to be built leading from William Teague’s ferry. As his sons became of age, they acquired land in Frederick County also.
In 1751, William began to dispose of his properties in Frederick County:
Deed Book 2, page 409 sold 88 acres to Ben Sabastian 6-13-1751
Page 440, 445 sold 145 acres to son, Abraham 10-3-1751
Page 336 sold 145 acres to son, Elijah 10-3-1751
Page 375 sold 121 acres to Robert Fulsham 8-17-1751
deeded 192 acres to Elijah and Abraham
2-12-1752
William was the first in the family to move to Rowan County, North Carolina. Son, Edward was the last one to leave Frederick County, Virginia. In 1753, Elijah and his wife, Alice, and Abraham and his wife, Ann, sold their property in Frederick County.
The Teague family moved to Anson County, North Carolina from which in 1753, Rowan County was formed. The places the Teagues lived become quite confusing because the names of the counties change, sometimes several times. It does not necessarily mean the people moved, it just means the county in which their property lay changed.Rowan County covered a vast area. In 1770, the eastern part of Rowan County and the western part of Orange County became Guiliford County. Then the northeastern part of Rowan County became Surry County. In 1788, the western part of Rowan County became Iredell County. In 1822, the eastern part of a shrinking Rowan County became Davidson County. In 1836, Rowan County north of the South Yadkin River became Davie County. Teagues lived in all of these counties. The Penningtons, Smiths, Corzines, and Loftons also moved to Rowan County. They were the same neighbors who lived in Cecil and Baltimore Counties together and then moved to Frederick County, Virginia together. Then they all moved to Rowan County together. They kept their neighbors and just changed locations. Indian uprisings may have prompted the moves to Frederick County and the move to Rowan County.
William came from Va. to N.C. and settled in the the central part of the state in area of Siler City. This is corraberated by records in Va. that in the earlier part of the 18th century there lived a William Teague who was father of these children living in Va. at that time. This William was said to have moved to N.C. It would appear likely that all his sons came with him or followed him into N.C. , and that they settled in the area of Siler City and Pittsboro, N.C. somewhere around 1750-60. We find most of these names appearing in this section of N.C. as shown by land grants and various real estate deals.

STEELMAN, MATTHIAS DAR Ancestor #: A108330
Service: NORTH CAROLINA Rank: PATRIOTIC SERVICE
Birth: (CIRCA) 1723 NEW JERSEY
Death: 10- -1793 SURRY CO NORTH CAROLINA
Service Source: WELLS, SURRY CO NC LAND ENTRIES, 1778-1781, P 31
Service Description: 1) TOOK OATH OF ALLEGIANCE TO MAKE LAND ENTRY, SURRY CO, 29 JULY 1778256. Mathias STEELMAN was born in 1723 in Kent County, Delaware. He died in 1793 in Surry County, North Carolina. ------------------------------------------------ Mathias Steelman's Ancestry: Earliest ancestor of Mathias is thought to be John Hance Steelman, b. in "New Sweden" in 1655. John Hance's parents came over on the same ship, in 1641; his mother was 7 years old at the time. "Steelman" seems to be a combination of the name "Stille", surname of Olaf Stille, grandfather of John Hance Steelman and "Mansson", from Hans Mansson, second husband (m. 1654) of Ella Olafsdotter Stille, the 7 year old who came with her parents in 1641 to New Sweden. She died 1718 in Gloucester County, NJ. Ella's brother kept the family name STILLE and the son of her first husband ended up as a YOCUM instead of JOACHIMSON. New Sweden was established in 1638, when Peter Minuit, rebuffed by the Dutch West India Company, for whom he had earlier established a colony, cooperated with the members of the government of King Gustaf of Sweden, to establish a colony on behalf of that government. New Sweden was, between 1638 and 1655, Philadelphia, Lower Delaware Co, PA and Wilmington, DE. John Hance was a fur trader, respected by William Penn and by the commissioners of the colony of Maryland as well. He was quite helpful to William Penn in obtaining from England a judgement against Lord Baltimore involving the "lower counties", which both colonial managers claimed as their territory. John Hance was one of the signers of the William Penn Pact with many Indian chieftains. Certain Maryland Commissioners had met with the chieftains and in John Hance Steelman's home. John Hance built a home on "Little Elk Creek" in Maryland in 1697; the stone structure still stands as of 1988. Mathias is thought to have migrated from Kent County, DE to Surry County, NC in the 1770's. The following is from "The Year of the Swedes (and the Finns) by Dr. Ralph K.Turp; South Jersey Magazine, Spring 1988 issue, pp.8-12 & Summer 1988 issue, pp.15-19: "Hans Mansson arrived in 1641 aboard "The Charitas" in company with Eric Mollicka, a Finn who was described as being a wealthy young man of 15 years. Also on board was Olaf (William) Stille who had two daughters...One story to account for his [Hans] presence in New Sweden, was that he was arrested for stealing apples from the orchard of the abbey at Varnhem and for which crime he was sent to New Sweden. In Varnhem (the author) was the guest of Arne Strang, head genealogist, Berit Hange Persson and Sven Axel Hallback, an historian. They produced records which verified the tale.... " The name Steelman, at least in this family, happened after Hans died around 1692 and his sons and wife englicized their name, as was common in that era, by taking his wife's maiden name, Stille and Mansson and making Steelman. ------------------------------------------------- He was married to Ruth in 1748.

448. Alexander CLARK
Emigrated to America, settled Cross Creek, NC, 1736 Source: Converging Paths, Thelma Duty McKinney, 1972.
Alexander Clark who came to the US in 1736 was married to Flora MacLean. Flora (or Florah) was the daughter of Daniel MacLean and Mary Buie.
I believe Alexander was the grandson of Gilbert Clark and Mary MacGhoill. Alexander's father may have been named Robert after Alexander's great grandfather.
Apparently when Gilbert Clark returned to Jura in 1690 after the Battle of Boyne in Ireland, he returned fairly well off monetarily. We think Gilbert settled on the North side of Jura in the MacLean area.
Gilbert re-married after returning to Jura and had a son Kenneth. Although raised and referenced as a younger half - brother to Alexander, Kenneth may actually have technically been his half-uncle.Information here is primarily from family Bibles and other documented sources. Information from Mrs. Flora Moore from the family Bible of Gilbert CLARK and his son Davis. The Bible was printed in 1746 in Edinburgh by Richard Watkins, his Majesties Printer.

Foote, "Alexander Clark arrived in the upper Cape Fear region of North Carolina in 1739 from the Isle of Jura off the west coast of Scotland. Alexander's father was Gilbert, a half-brother to Kenneth. Alexander married Florah McLean, and they had issue four sons (Gilbert, John, Daniel, Archibald) and four daughters. Son Gilbert was sixteen when the family moved to what is now Harnett Co., NC. Copies of Foote are available from: Mrs. Sally McLeod Owen, 710 Person St., #204, Raleigh, NC 27604 (919) 835-0920.
Some descendants of Kenneth CLARK came over later.
Alexander Clark was a farmer and carpenter. He was a Presbyterian.

I have searched the surname PAINE vertical file in the TN State Archives & Library, 2012.
Patent of land in Spotsylvania Co., VA 22 Jan 1717; sold 350 ac to John Farish 2 Feb 1741.
Places of Residence: Drysdale Parish, King & Queen Co; Spotsylvania Co., VA
Reference in Christ Church Parish, Middlesex Co., VA as the parents of Ann Paine.
The first definite mention of Barnett Paine was the 1704 Quit Rent Roll for King and Queen Co., VA at that time he owned 130 acres. By 1718 Barnett Paine had increased his land holdings to 350 acres. Barnett Paine was involved in numerous land transactions in K & Q Co., and, when Spotsylvania Co was formed in 1720 from Essex, King William, and King & Queen Co. He was involved in numerous land transactions there. He remained a resident of King and Queen Co., until his death about 1742 or 1743.
Before his death Barnett Paine served as the administrator of the estate of his son, Barnett Paine, Jr. He lived at one time in Spotsylvania in 1724 next to Lawrence Franklin. Franklin ancestors were named Bernard.
Supposedly the sons migrated from Spotsylvania Co., VA to Burke Co., NC in the mid to late 1700's.

"Frances, wife of John Paine, was almost certainly Frances Coleman, daughter of Robert Coleman, originally of Drysdale Parish, King & Queen Co." (Source: Allan L. Poe, Box 111, Lenoir, NC)
In 1741, Robert Coleman the Elder of Drysdale Parish, King & Queen Co., gave 440 1/2 acres in Spotsylvania (granted to him in 1723) to his son Robert Coleman, the younger. In 1748 the younger Robert conveyed 140 acres of this to John Paine.
John & Frances had sons named Thomas & Robert, names which had not appeared in the Paine family, but both of which were common to the Coleman family.
