Jur. in Curia 14th November 1677. A Copy Henry Tyler C. S. C. (This is a copy certified to by Henry Tyler who was Clerk of the Court of Stafford County and who died about 1770). === "John Alexander, A Northern Neck Proprietor, His Family, Friends and Kin" By Wesley E. Pippenger, 1990, Gateway Press, Baltimore County, Maryland. Private publishing, Wesley E. Pippenger, 6437 Richmond Highway, #302, Alexandria, Virginia 22306 (Prince William County, Virginia Deeds B:1) Howson assigned his patent 13 October 1669 to John Alexander for six hogsheads of tobacco. The deed was recorded in Stafford County, but the record has been lost. John Alexander had three sons: John who died without issue, Robert and Phillip. John Alexander made an unsigned will 5 October 1677 in which he bequeathed "200 acres where John Coggins lives" to Elizabeth Holmes, 500 acres to John Dry "being the northernmost part of the 6750 acres on the freshes of the Potomac river" and the rest of his estate was to be divided between his sons Robert and Philip. No record has been found for John Dry, but the 200 acres of Elizabeth Holmes is shown on a survey of 1741 as "Mr. Harrison's land." Elizabeth Holmes married Richard Nixon and they sold to Burr Harrison, who devised the land to his son Thomas. Burr Harrison, son of Thomas, and Anne his wife, sold the land, "250 acres on Great Hunting Creek including large marsh," for £300 to John West, Jr. (19 November 1762. Fx. Deeds E:186) The east line of this tract was set by articles of agreement and began in the north line of Duke Street . . . west 786 feet . . . West street . . . a little to westward of arch of the new stone bridge across a run in Duke Street . . . (Fx. Deeds A2:527) In 1698 Robert Alexander made a three-live lease to John Harper, Sr., William Harper and Elizabeth Harper for 200 acres, "part of a tract of 6000," to join tract formerly sold to John Pemit. John Harper was to pay the quit rents and two fat hens yearly, if demanded. This is the first recorded lease found for Fairfax County. (Stafford Will Book Z:200) Robert Alexander sold 150 acres to John Pimmet in 1687. (RS 1:37) George Pimmet, son of John, sold the 150 acre tract which was located on the north side of Four Mile Run, to William Harper for 8000 pounds of tobacco. (11 February 1707. Stafford Will Book z:403) John Withers Harper sold the 150 acres to Thomas Pearson, whose sister Constantia married Nathaniel Chapman. (Pr. Wm. Deeds B:1) Chapman owned the tract in 1741, although there is no known record of a deed. The Chapman home above Four Mile Run was called Summer Hill. Pearson Chapman, of Charles County, Maryland, sold the 150 acres 23 July 1766 to his brother George, also of Charles County, for "love and affection and 10 shillings." The deed recites that the property had belonged to Nathaniel Chapman of Charles County, Maryland, decd. His son and heir, Nathaniel, inherited, but died without making disposition so the land descended to Pearson, "brother and heir of last named Nathaniel." In 1690 Robert Alexander conveyed a half-interest in the Howson patent to his brother Philip, The land had descended to Robert because their father's will was unsigned. Three years later Phillip reconveyed to Robert his half-interest, but reserved 500 acres in the southeast corner of the patent for himself. His son Philip (1704_1753) inherited and had quarters on the land in 1741. Part of this 500 acre tract was taken for the site of Alexandria. John Alexander, after the death of Philip in 1753, became the owner of the tract and also town lots in Alexandria. By his will 1 May 1775, in Stafford County, John Alexander devised to his son William Thornton Alexander. The Executors of John Alexander laid off and sold lots next to Alexandria. In 1807 William Thornton Alexander sold his interest in the tract (and ground rents) to John Taliaferro. This ended the Alexander family connection with the 500 acre tract reserved in severalty to Philip Alexander. (Arlington County Deeds B:5-88) The remaining part of the Howson patent passed from Robert, son of the John of the original purchase, by will dated 7 December 1703, to his sons Robert and Charles. Charles died intestate and Robert became the sole owner. This Robert was born 1688 and died 1735. He lived at the home plantation of the Alexanders, Caledon, but visited his Hunting Creek lands, In 1731 Benjamin Sebastian was employed as overseer and collector of rents; he lived on Alexander's Island. In a deposition he stated that he became a tenant to Alexander on promise of a lease, which he never got from Alexander in his life, but after his death, he got a lease from Gerrard Alexander, son of Robert, who inherited part of the land, (LRLS: 315) Benjamin Sebastian listed the tenants living on Alexander's land in 1731. They paid rents of 524 pounds of tobacco for Early Colonial Settlers of Southern Maryland and Virginia's Northern Neck Counties - Maintained by Mike Marshall 20 Mar 2020 https://colonial-settlers-md-va.us/ Page 2 Individual Report for John Alexander (I020444) General (cont.) 100 acres and twice that for a double lot of 200 acres. The tenants living below Four 'file Creek were: Judith Ballenger, James Going, Sarah Young, and Sarah Amos. Above the creek the tenants were: Edward Chubb, Richard Middleton, William Boylstone, John Straughan, Adam Straughan, Edward Earpe and Richard Wheeler. Robert Alexander received 6812 Pounds of tobacco yearly for the rent since Richard Middleton and William Boylstone had double lots. Robert Alexander in his will devised "Pearson's Island where he now lives" to son John. His daughters Parthenia Massey and Sarah Alexander received 400 acres each. He left Holmes Island (302 acres) and 1125 ad-joining acres to his son Gerrard. The remaining acreage of the patent was divided between sons John, who took the land south of Four Mile Run, and Gerrard, who took the land north of Four Mile Run. John, the eldest son, married Susannah, daughter of Capt. Simon Pearson. He deeded to his son Charles two tracts of land devised to his wife Susannah by her father Simon Pearson, a moiety of a tract lying not far from the falls warehouse taken up by his father Robert (800 acres adjacent to Rev. Scott) and all the land that "I hold between Mr. Baldwin Dade (Senior) and tract of John Alexander's that adjoins town of Alexandria." In return Charles was to relinquish right to money from sale of lots in Alexandria. (Fx. Deeds E:312, 6 June 1763) Gerrard Alexander, son of Robert, received the land north of Four Mile Run, except for the part belonging to Pearson Chapman, and was co-owner with his brother John of the famous contested strip which was the cause of many court suits. Gerrard Alexander in his will 9 August 1760 (Fx. Will Book B:127) devised to his son Robert: "the house wherein I now live and 904 acres adjacent" Philip: "904 acres formerly leased to Robert Osborn with the island therein included known by the name of Homes Island." Gerard: "900 acres of the upper part of the tract whereon I now live." A survey was made many years later to fix boundaries in settlement of a controversy between the Executors of the estate of John Parke Custis and the Alexanders. (RS 2:61) John Parke Custis purchased the plantations of Gerard and Robert Alexander in 1778. Custis died in 1781 and his Executors were unable to make the required payments. The land of Robert Alexander was returned and he was paid rent for the twelve years that Custis had been in possession. John W. Parke Custis remained in possession of the 1000 acre tract of Gerard and on this tract Arlington House was built. Robert Alexander, whose estate was returned, devised in 1793 to his two sons Robert and Walter S. Alexander. The last named Robert died leaving two children, Edward H. and Ashton Albert Alexander, who sold their one-half interest, or 400 acres, in 1834 to Anthony R. Fraser. As late as 1900 one of Walter S. Alexander's sons owned 100 acres west of Fort Meyers, one of the last remaining parts of the patent held by a descendant of the first John Alexander who had purchased the patent in 1669 from Robert Howson.

Source: "A History of a Colonial Land Patent" 1639-1864 Ancestral Home ofThomas Burton from 1656-1685 In 1656, Robert Cobbs sold the same 350 acres to Michael Masters in turnsurrendered the 350 acres to Thomas & John Burton.

Mr Wm Walthall and me GeorgeWorsham, Commissioners I John, Knight, etc. grant to Ambrose Cobbs. 350 acres on AppomattoxRiver in Henrico, Co. bounded on south by the main river, west by land ofMr John Baugh, north by the main woods Signed : Thos Brerton "extracted from the records of Bristol Parrish by Nich. Dison. C. Cur." Recorded 1 Feb. 1683 at request of Thomas Burton. Thomas Burton is our Colonial ancestor in Virginia. From the evidence itappears that the John Burton referred to above is the brother of ThomasBurton. However, in the sequence of deeds to follow, John does not appearas a grantor. Thus in May, 1656 Thomas Burton became the owner of"Cobbs". Subsequently he was known as Thomas Burton of Cobbs. John Burtonsettled 8-10 miles to the north on land patents north of the James Riverand his decendants form a long family of Burtons throughout the southsomewhat parallel to our own. John Burton's plantation was called"Longfield". By the time Thomas Burton became established at "Cobbs", the Colonialgovernment was functioning and the tobacco trade flourished.Increasingly, however, the colonist began to resist English taxation andr epression and by 1776 Bacon's Rebellion and the Mecklenburg Declaration evidenced the Revolutionary War to follow. "Cobbs" was located in an area strategic to both sides in the revolution.In 1781 both Lafayette and Cornwallis passed through or within a fewmiles of Cobbs, prior to the siege and surrender of British forces atYorktown. From 1636 to 1865, "Cobbs" was in the very center of Colonial expansionand the formation of our nation. Indian massacres, revolution,Constitutional government, the War of 1812, and the War between theStates all occured at sites near or within the confines of the Estate.Within 25 miles lay the Jamestown Colony, Williamsburg, Yorktown, andRichmond. The owners and occupants of this remarkable Estate were a crosssection of pioneers, adventurers, merchants, planters, statesmen, huntersand war heroes; and not the least of these was our forefather, THOMASBURTON, OF " COBBS". In a will recorded 1 Feb, 1685, Thomas Burton leaves 100 acres each tohis sons, Thomas, John, Abraham and Issac. Note that the original 350acres has become 400 acres. We do not know if 50 acres were acquiredafter 1656 or if the descriptions were general in nature. In 1735, Issac Burton sold his 100 acres to Hohn Bolling, son of JohnBolling of Cobbs, and thus the last Burton in our family line left"Cobbs". John Bolling purchased "Cobbs" in Nov, 1704 from John Burton, the landconsisting of 300 acres. The descendants of John Bolling weredistinguished and active in Military, Commerce and the Politicaldevelopment of Virginia. John Bolling was born in 1676 and died in 1709.He was the great grandson of Rolfe & Pocahontas and carried on a livelytrade with the Indians. He was buried at Cobbs and his marker wassurrounded by a stone wall. John Bolling was born in 1676 and died in 1709. In 1622 a band of Indiansled by Chief Opechancanough led an uprising that massacred 347 colonist,one third of the settlers in Va. In addition to Jamestown to the south,Henricus, several miles to the north of "Cobbs" suffered a severe loss oflife. During the War of 1812, the French Navy controlled the Chesapeake Bayarea. From Feb 1813 to July 1815, there were few land engagements nearCobbs, but the French did carry out limited foraging expeditions alongthe banks of the James and Appomattox Rivers. During one of theseexpeditions the Cobbs Estate was overun. The outbuildings and grainstorage buildings were burned, but the Mansion and the family grave areaswere spared. The Burton decendants were moving west to Amelia County and Meckenburg asthe Civil War neared. Almost all Burtons were slave holders and caught upin the turmoil of the growing conflict over states's rights and slaveryand the call for secession from the Union. "Ochre", first used as war paint by the indians, was mined at Cobbs. Thiswas in trade by the subsequent owners of "Cobbs" until ca. 1900. ************** SOURCES: 1993 Stovall Family Assn book "The Family of Batholomew Stovall" by Neil D.

4111	- It is said that William Hibbs, Jr. came to the New World in 1677 on the ship, "Kent", Lived around Burlington, New Jersey until 1680, then migrated to Byberry, Philadelphia Co, PA, where he lived the remainder of his life. He died in the fall of 1707 or 1708. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Found at https://branchingoutfamily.wordpress.com/2014/04/22/16-william-hibbs-jr-52-ancestors/ Copy of will dated 9/28/1708 and probated 3/5/1709 Names: wife Hannah eldest son Joseph - at age 21 son Jonathan - at age 24 eldest dau Sarah - at age 24 dau Phebe (Phobe?) - at age 24 son Jacob - at age 24 son William - at age 24 dau Hannah - at age 24 son Jeremiah - at age 24 - ?? bequests to children (other than eldest son Joseph) at age of 24 instead of 21 ? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- found at http://takingthelongerview.org/index.php/author/takinglonger/page/3/ William died in 1709. His will, made in 1708, named his wife Hannah and eight children, Joseph, Jonathan, Jacob, William, Jeremiah, Sarah, Phebe and Hannah.9 He left a Negro man to his wife, and after her death to his sons Joseph and Jonathan, if the man was still alive then. Hannah and Joseph were to share the plantation. Each of the other children was to receive £20 when he or she turned 24 years of age. Hannah was specifically allowed to raise the children at her discretion. I leave the whole charge of bringing up my children to my dear wife she doing this according to her own discretion. But friends Daniel and William Walton were chosen as overseers to assist Hannah in managing her affairs. William apparently trusted Hannah with the family affairs, but not the financial ones. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- found at https://sites.rootsweb.com/~paxson/balderston/Hibbs.html William1 Hibbs, supposed to be the son of William and Joanne (__) Hibbs of the Forest of Dean, Gloucestershire, was said to have been born the 23 of December or January 1664/5. However, I have not yet seen any proof that the Gloustershire man was the same one who came to Pennsylvania and died sometime between 28 Seventh Month [September] 1708 and 5 March 1709/10 in Byberry, Philadelphia County, Pennsylvania. William married 12 February 1686/7 Hannah HOWELL, daughter of Thomas. Our William, whoever were his parents, emigrated to America on the Greyhound, Joseph Wasey, master. The ship loaded in London from 11 April to 31 May 1677, just after the more famous Kent, and like her was also bound for New Jersey. The Greyhound arrived at Wickaco [sic] in the Delaware River in October 1677. William Hibbs or Hebes is identified among her passengers by Sheppard, which is definitive enough for me.[6] If our William was born in 1664/5, he would be twelve years old when he arrived in New Jersey. My assumption is that he would have been apprenticed or indentured to someone. Thus far I have found no trace of him until he shows up five to eight years later in Pennsylvania. If William turned 21 in 1685, my guess is that this is when he would have been able to settle. He showed up in the general vicinity of Byberry by 1685.[7] His land lay northwest of the tract belonging to Henry ENGLISH. On Holmes's map, Henry English shares a tract with Henry COMLY, Sarah WOOLMAN, and Abel NOBLE on the county line.[8] William Hibbs's land is not marked. Friends meetings for worship were settled in Byberry in 1683, meeting first at the home of John Hart. The first meeting house was constructed in about 1694. About the year 1701 it became a Preparative Meeting under Abington Monthly Meeting. The stone meeting house was built in 1714, with an addition in 1753. This was replaced in 1808 by a new stone meeting house, about 66 feet by 36 feet.[9] So the building presently in use is not the one in which our Hibbs family worshipped. William and Hannah HOWELL, sometimes spelled Houl, and perhaps Hywel in Welsh, daughter of Thomas, were married 12 February 1686/7 in Byberry Meeting.[10] On Holmes's map, the tract for "Thomas Hould" was just over the county line in Bucks County, bordered by Lawrence and Joseph Growden to the southeast, John Gilbert to the northeast, On 26/12m/1689 "Will Hibbs" and Nicholas HICKET witnessed a power of attorney granted by two Bucks County shipwrights to appoint Abel HINEKSTON [sic] to be their attorney to receive a deed for 40 acres.[11] When the Keithian controversy[12] erupted in 1692, John HART was a leading supporter of George KEITH. Because Byberry Meeting was held so near Hart's house, and was considerably under his influence, a group of Friends seceeded and met at the home of Henry ENGLISH. William Hibbs was one of those who left. Since the Friends burying ground was on Hart's farm, in 1694 English gave an acre of his land for Friends to use as a "burying-place" for those in good standing with the meeting. In spite of the provision that the land only be used for burials, a meeting house was soon erected there, with the full consent of the donor. The building was of logs, chinked with mud, and covered with bark. It served as a place of worship for twenty years before being replaced with a more comfortable stone structure.[13] At some point Abington Monthly Meeting minuted dealing with a William Hibbs for refusing to take off his hat when William WALTON (d. 1736), the first recorded minister in Byberry, prayed.[14] I do not know the date. It might well have been part of the Keithian controversy: a person who did not remove his hat when another Friend prayed was saying, in effect, that the praying Friend was not really communicating with God, that he was at best insincere, and more likely an imposter, not a true minister called by Christ. This, obviously, was a serious charge to make against someone the meeting had recognized as being given by God gifts of ministry. This needs more research in the minutes of Abington MM. It is possible it concerns a different man with the same name. Local historian Joseph Martindale cryptically wrote that William Hibbs "seems to have had some difficulty with his neighbors."[15] Meeting minutes and court records need to be checked to confirm this and uncover details. He is perhaps confusing William with his son and grandson? William died between 28 September 1708 when he signed his will and 5 March 1709/10 when it was probated.[16] He signed with his mark, indicating he was illiterate, and it was witnessed by Abraham GRIFFITH, and Henry ENGLISH (who also signed with a mark). William named his wife Hannah executrix, and mentioned his children Joseph, Jonathan, Jacob, William, Jeremiah, Sarah, Phebe, and Hannah. For overseers he named Daniel WALTON and William WALTON, possibly (but not necessarily) the one who was a recorded minister.[17] The confusion on the part of many familysearch entries as to where he died or was buried is probably a result of unfamiliarity with the structure of Friends meetings and records. Abington was the Monthly Meeting, under whose care all marriages occurred, and in whose records all births and deaths were recorded. Byberry was a Preparative Meeting under Abington, with its own burying ground. William would technically be a member of Abington Monthly Meeting but would be an active participant of Byberry, because that is where he lived and worshipped. Hannah married secondly, in 1712, Henry ENGLISH, whose farm lay southeast of the Hibbs's. Before they were married, in March 1711/2, Henry had made a deed of his property to her, "in consideration of the love, good-will and affection which he had and did bear toward his loving friend, Hannah Hibbs." Henry died about 1724. They had no children.[18] Hannah's will was written 13 June 1737 and probated 30 August 1737. She listed her daughters Sarah Cooper and Phobey BLICOR [sic: Blaker], and youngest son Jeremiah. Executors were her sons Joseph and William Hibbs.[19] Children of William and Hannah (Howell) Hibbs:[20] Joseph2 Hibbs, b. 1687/8 in Byberry; d. 22 Mar. 1762 in Buckingham; m(1) Rachel WARING (1687-1740); m(2) 1749 Catherine LOVE.

Her paper acknowledging and condemning her action was accepted by Friends 4/5m/1780.[28] e) William Hibbs, Jr. b. 2/10m/1735; disowned 2/9m/1756 for highway robbery. See below. f) James Hibbs, b. 7/10m/1737; d. d. 31 Jan. 1789 In his will, dated 12/9m/1785, he identified himself as William Jr. of Northampton township. He did not name his wife. Son Benjamin was made executor. William named his son Nehemiah's children; and his own sons James and William, and daughters Anna WORSTALL, Abigail PARSONS, and Ann SMITH.[29] g) Ann Hibbs, b. 12/9m/1739; The Middletown Monthly Meeting overseers reported that a complaint was brought against William Hibbs Sr. by Margaret THORNTON for refusing to settle long-standing accounts with her and her late husband Joseph, 6/2m/1755; they were reported settled 6/3m/1755.[30] Later that year William Hibbs Jr. was accused by John WILLIAMS of robbing him on the road at night. William Jr. denied the robbery, and came to monthly meeting but was unable to clear himself. Friends decided 4/12m/1755 that a testimony needed to be made explicitly explaining that because of behavior so inconsistent with Friends' principles, William Jr. could no longer be owned as a Friend. The following month a testimony was read, approved, and ordered to be delivered to William Jr., along with acquainting him of his right to appeal to the quarterly meeting. At the next monthly meeting, 4/3m/1756, it was reported that the testimony had been delivered and William Jr. intended to appeal. But he didn't go to Quarterly Meeting to make his appeal, so "the meeting's judgment stands", Abington minuted in 2/9m/1756. The final step was reading the testimony after meeting for worship, and at the meeting 7/10m/1756 it was reported to have been accomplished. In the meantime, on 6/11m/1755 William Sr. was asked to come to the next monthly meeting on account of his son. But when William Sr. didn't show up, a committee was named to speak to him, 4/12m/1755. They reported back that William Sr. said he would come but he was ill. Friends thought a testimony ought to be drawn up and delivered to William Hibbs Sr., who said he didnt mean to countenance his son's disorder or to slight the meeting, 5/2m/1756. So apparently this acknowledgment was sufficient and the charges were dropped.[31] A few years later the overseers reported that William [presumably Sr. since Jr was disowned] Hibbs "in public railed and villified holy men recorded in the scriptures of Truth". Friends agreed that a testimony be prepared, 4/1m/1759; the testimony was signed, and William said he would not appeal, 1/2m/1759; the testimony was reported read, 3m/1759.[32] William is in the Northampton tax duplicate for 1761, assessed on £16.4.0.[33] William was named co-executor of his mother's will in 1737.

The following is from Family History Research Center--The Davidson Family of Iredell County, North Carolina, John Bulmer Lisle ([email protected]) and Carolyn Miethe Lisle (2000): http://www.tqsi.com/genealogy/ [last updated 6 February 2000, when accessed 12 February 2010]: This is a study of the descendants of John Davidson and his wife Jane who came to America in the late 1730s from Ireland. They were of Scottish ancestry. This research includes a study of his brother George and other Davidsons that can be linked to this Davidson family. This study also includes the descendants of other direct ancestors, such as the Reese family, the Dickey family, the Hall family, the Norton family, the Beall family, the Charles family, the Boatright family, and others. John Davidson was born before 1709 in Ireland. He married and had several children there and brought them to America about 1737. He arrived in Philadelphia; his older brother George may have already been living there. Shortly thereafter, he and his family bought land in Beverly Manor in Orange County, Virginia. This area was split off as part of Augusta County shortly afterwards. He lived in nearby a Samuel Davidson who seems to have been related; however, we cannot now determine how they were connected. About 1747 he was granted land in what is now Iredell County, North Carolina. Shortly after their move, he died. His son George Davidson, born 1728, my 5g-grandfather, married Catharine Penelope Reese who was of Welsh ancestry. His son William Davidson, my 4g-grandfather, married Mary Dickey who was of Scottish ancestry. His son Abner migrated to Bedford County, Tennessee, in the late 1820s. After the Civil War, his grandson went to San Antonio, Texas. John and Jane Davidson with their children migrated first to Augusta County, Virginia, now Rockbridge County. The first land surveyed for John was in Beverly Manor in May of 1738 on Christian Creek. By June 5, 1739, he had bought 785 acres. On February 18, 1747, he sold 485 acres of the Beverly Manor land and 350 acres of land on Buffalo Creek that runs into the upper portion of James River. Jane had also signed these land sales when they took place. Elizabeth and her sister Margaret and her brother John were all born while living there in Virginia. Elizabeth had been baptized April 19, 1741, by Rev. John Craig at Tinkling Spring. She was the first of John and Jane's children to be born on American soil. After some eight to ten years in residence of Virginia, John moved into North Carolina with his family. He chose land on Davidsons Creek, named for him. It was located in the northwest corner of what is now Mecklenburg County and the southwest corner of present Iredell County, just a short distance north of present Charlotte. Centre Presbyterian Church was only a short distance to the south. The first of the Granville lands surveyed in what was then Anson County, now Iredell County, was dated November 13, 1748. The Granville surveyor was Charles Robertson for John McDowell on McDowell's Creek. The second survey was for John Davidson on November 26, 1748. John had the land titled jointly with his first born son, George Davidson. This old practice of first born son getting sole title was still in practice from the medieval times. It wouldn't change till America became free after the Revolution. John made application for the land and moved onto it, and George has assisted as a chairman in the survey. John never saw the completion of the paperwork, due to his untimely death. The land on Davidson's Creek followed the creek southwest to join into the Catawba River. Surveys for the Granville land in the area of Davidson's Creek area were made December 1, 1748, for John McConnell and then followed by other surveys for James Templeton, George Davidson, Samuel Baker, John Thompson, James and John McCullock, Moses White, John Reed, Benjamin Winsley, John McDowell, William Morrison, Hugh Lawson, John Parks, John Brevard, and Edward Givens. These names will show up again in the history of the Davidsons and McLeans. After only two years in the North Carolina lands John had died, leaving most of his estate to his son George. After John's death, Jane, later on, married William Morrison and had her last child, William Morrison, Jr. William Morrison helped Jane to close out inventory of John's last Virginia lands, for the aid of his new wife. He was noted to be the present husband of the "said Jane Davidson." Before moving on I'd like to list the children of John and Jane Davidson. Col. George Davison born in 1728 in Ireland Rachel Davidson born abt. 1730 in Ireland Thomas Davidson born abt. 1733 in Ireland Samuel Davidson born 1736 in Ireland, twin Maj. William Davidson born 1736 in Ireland, twin Elizabeth Davidson born 1741 in Virginia Margaret Davidson born 1742 in Virginia John (One Eyed) Davidson born 1744 in Virginia John Davidson was born in Ireland about 1709. Although we have suggested a parentage for him, this parentage is speculative. For most of his life, he seems to have spelled his name as "Davison"; however, he added the second "d" to make it Davidson when he entered land in North Carolina. The first fairly concrete evidence of his existance is a proof of importation that was entered into the Orange County Virginia Order Book in 1740. This documents announces that John Davison and his wife Jane and sons George, Thomas, William, and Samuel had arrived in America in Philadelphia and had now migrated to the Virginia Colony to acquire land. This document places their arrival in America as sometime between 1737 and 1740 as the twins William and Samuel were born in 1737. The were looking to acquire land in the Tinkling Springs Beverly Plantation, near where the city of Stanton in Rockbridge county, VA is today. In 1840 it was part of Orange County. Then in became part of Augusta County in the 1740s; and later still Rockbridge County. A key research understanding is that several other John Davidsons or John Davisons were in the same area at the same time. And all of them claim to be the John Davison referred to in this document. A key reason why it should be accepted for this John Davidson is that there is other evidence to document the existance of the sons and their birth order. In most other cases, they only have one son that they can document. While John Davidson was in Tinkling Spring, he had three more children and they were baptised there and records exist of those ceremonies. About 1748 inexpensive land was being made available by Lord Granville in northwestern North Carolina. John and his son George travelled there to claim some land. George served as a surveyor laying out a claim in what it now Iredell County. During the next year his family began selling the land in Virginia and moved to North Carolina. Shortly after the move, John Davidson died. His wife Jane, with the help of William Morrison, a neighbor whom she married, sold off the remaining properties in Virginia by 1753. It is said that Jane had a son William by William Morrison. Evidence is unclear if the son is hers or it is his by a previous marriage. However, her marriage to William Morrison has been the basis for a legend that is documented in many early histories of this family. The legend assumes that a Mister Morrison was her first husband and that he died in transit to America and that she married John Davidson afterwards. This would place the birth of the young William Morrison at about 1720. The William Morrison half-brother or step-brother who retained Tory sympathies during the War was obviously a young man - a man still raising a family about 1800. John Davidson was buried on the family farm in North Carolina. Unfortunately, no marker exists. But his presence is felt in the large numbers of people who can point back and call him their ancestor. George Franklin Davidson, son of Ephraim Davidson, grandson of Col. George Davidson, great-grandson of John Davidson, wrote a letter in 1840 that is one of the most important clues to the family ancestry. __________________ Irdele Co., N.C. Sept. 20, 1840 Dear Cousin:- Since my return I have seen the letter you wrote to Father, making inquiries about the family of Davidsons, and he has attempted in some degree to answer them. The oldest members of the family who came to this country were John and George Davidson. George married a widow Simmeral and was the father of General Wm. Davidson, killed in Revolution, and another son who died a young man before that time. John was the father of Grandfather George D., and also 4 other sons, viz: Thomas who lived and died near Charleston, S.C. - William and Samuel (twins) both lived and died inn Buncombe (the latter was killed by Indians -- the first was father of Col. Samuel Davidson who now lives in Buncombe on the same plantation) -- the 4th brother was the one-eyed John D. who lived in Murry Co. Tenn -- and a half brother, William Morrison, whose family went to Kentucky. Great G. Father John had three daughters, Rachel and Peggy who married John and David Alexander, some of whose descendents are now living in Buncombe and Tennessee -- and Betty who married Ephraim McLean, and lived in Kentucky. G. G. Father and mother Reece died about 1800, the former, who first name was William, aged 100, the latter, name was Penelope Groner, aged 75. Grandfather George Davidson was born in 1728, died in 1814; Grandmother born in 1731, died 1814. Our family emigrated from Rockbridge, Virginia about 1748. G.G. father died about 2 years after. and was buried on his plantation. There are some of the particulars about which you wished to be informed and I expect are mostly correct. I hope they will meet your wishes and enable you to effect your purpose. We are all well at present time, tho Father has recently had a dangerous spell of sickness. There is little news here. I should be gratified to hear from you. Father sends his best wishes, etc. Yours etc. Geo. F. Davidson Source: T. P. Davidson, Memphis, Tenn (Copied July 3 1896) _______________ The following is from The Heritage of Old Buncombe County, Doris Cline Ward, Editor (1981) at 189-190 (Article #304, "Allen Turner Davidson" by Mrs. Dorothy Hyde and Mr. William E. Bryson). The facts claimed have not been confirmed, and researchers are advised to proceed with caution: Three brothers, John, George, and Robert Davidson of Scottish ancestry, Whigs and Presbyterians, immigrated to America from Northern Ireland early in the eighteenth century. They landed at Philadelphia and lived in southern Pennsylvania and northern Maryland until about 1740 when John and George moved their families as well as the widow and two children of Robert, to Rowan County, North Carolina to a place near Centre Church. According to tradition, John Davidson (b. 1709) married a young widow named Mary Morrison whose beauty and charm had attracted him during the long voyage. She was born in Ireland of wealthy parents and had eloped with a devout young Protestant who succumbed to disease aboard the ship. One Morrison boy was born of this union who was raised by the Davidson family. During the Revolution that young man remained a Tory and family ties were strained. [Yes, I have read this account, however, most of the serious researchers in times past dismissed this romantic story. Who knows? After reading all of the stories in Caswell County Heritage, I know some are right on the nose and a few are from a good imagination or not so good memory. I take them as my starting point. Source: Dottie Pickett] John Davidson saw much action during the French and Indian War in associatin with General Washington, and when General John Rutherford came through Western North Carolina on a punitive expedition against the Cherokee Indians in 1775, General John Davidson was in command of the supply train. This consisted of 1900 soldiers, 1400 horses, 160 light horsemen and all were equipped with a four months? supply of rations. He was chosen for this job because of his previous skill in handling such arrangements over the years. The Davidsons lived on the land that later became the site of Davidson College which was named years later for his nephew General William Lee Davidson. The children of General John and Mary (?) (Morrison) Davidson were: Twins: William D. and Samuel (first settler west of the Blue Ridge, murdered by the Cherokees); Thomas who settled in South Carolina; James and Benjamin who settled in Transylvania County, NC; ?one-eyed? John who married Mary Brevard and lived at Old Fort, NC; Rachel who married John Alexander; Margaret (Peggy) who married James Smith; Elizabeth who married Ephraim McClean; and Rebecca who married William Young. Mrs. Dorothy Hyde and Mr. William E. Bryson The above description of the family of General John and Mary (Morrison) Davidson is found on pages 189-190 of The Heritage of Old Buncombe County, Volume I (1981), Doris Cline Ward, Editor (Published by the Old Buncombe County Genealogical Society). _______________ Either Robert Davidson or his brother George Davidson was the father of General William Lee Davidson (nephew of General John Johnson). The Davidsons originally were from Center Church. Gen. William Lee Davidson was killed during the Revolutionary War in 1781 at Cowan's Ford of Catawba River. In his honor are named Davidson College of North Carolina and Davidson Counties of North Carolina and Tennessee. A monument also stands to him on the Revolutionary battle ground at Guilford Court House. See Sondley at 369 for a further description of Center Church and the Davidson family. Notes on John: John "imported from Ireland to Philadelphia" his family including his wife Jane and 4 sons between 1737 & 1740. On July 24, 1740 at Orange County VA Court House, John Davidson gave an Oath of Importation as follows: "John Davidson came into Court & made oath that he imported himself, Jane, George, Thomas, William & Samuel Davison at his own charge from Ireland to Philadelphia & from thence into this Colony and that this is the first time of his proving his and their rights in order to obtain Land which is ordered to be certifyed." (per Orange Co., VA Order Book 2, p.209) He moved to what is now Rockbridge Co., VA. where he lived for about ten years and where some of his children were born, and removed to Rowan Co., NC Abt. 1748. The four youngest children were baptized at the Tinkling Springs Meeting House, Orange [Augustua] County, VA. by the Rev. John Craig, a Presbyterian minister. Source: Dottie PIckett _______________ "In 1756, Virginia had asked to join South Carolina in the building of Fort Loudon, but the Cherokees wanted each colony to construct a fort. Virginia built a small fortification, therefore, near the ancient capital of Echota, but it was never garrisoned. At the same time North Carolina took steps to protect the Catawbas east of the Blue Ridge from the ever-raiding Cherokees by building a fort, thus strengthening the colony's relationship with the Catawbas and safeguarding the westward moving settlers. Later [1757], for protection against both the Catawbas and the Cherokees, settlers just east of the Blue Ridge built Fort Davidson, on the site of the present Old Fort."

The Legend According to family tradition, Mister Morrison was a young unmarried, Irish Protestant who became enamored of a young, unmarried Irish Catholic lady. Her father, an ardent Catholic, opposed the marriage, and the young couple ran away, were married, and embarked for America. Mister Morrison died on the way and his young widow reached Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in a destitute condition. John Davidson, a young bachelor, was an emigrant from Ireland to America on the same ship and there became acquainted with the Morrisons. His sympathy was awakened in behalf of the young widow, especially, when on their arrival at Philadelphia, he learned of her necessitous condition. He procured for her a home with a family of some of his friends and and advanced her some money to defray her expenses in the interval. On returning to the city after several months, her learned that her family had refused her any aid and that she had given birth to a son of her marriage which was adding to her distress. Again, he came to her relief, and eventually that ripened into affection. They were married and raised a large family. He raised his family in Pennsylvania, probably in Lancaster County. About 1750 the family moved to Rowan County, North Carolina in an area known as Center Church. That area is now in Iredel County. Source: Davidson Family History and Ancestry.

One source notes that "James Warner was a church warden of the liberal variety." In late 1651, he moved to the Severn River area in Anne Arundel County, MD. The first Colonial settlement on the Severn, and in Anne Arundel County, was settled in 1649 and called Providence (also called Towne Neck). It was abandoned in about 1670 because Annapolis had a better harbor. This "lost town" was in the Carr Creek watershed near Greenbury Point, across the river from Annapolis. It was on what are now grounds of the US Naval Station Annapolis At some time around 1651, possibly the reason for his leaving Virginia, James Warner and his wife, Ann (Unk.) Warner, converted to the Quaker religion. Apparently Ann's convictions were not as strong as her husband's, as witnessed by a 1657 letter: Letter, 14 Nov 1657, Anne Arundel Co., Maryland: Robert Clarkson, 14 Nov 1657, wrote of other members of the [Quaker] faith, then stated; "...Ann Warner haith been unsetled in her convinsment by hearckning to Ann Covell. In soe much that, at a private mmeteing at my house, shee denyed the light in us, to be Christ, to the greefe of our spirits, which greefe brake forth into teares from Milcah..." Soon after this meeting, he said that she was against meetings. However, she did not deny the faith, but had wanted to be convinced "before she fell into practise"... I hope shee doth abide in her convinsment." In 1661 Henry Ridgely and James Warner, a neighbor in South River Hundred, received jointly a warrant of 600 acres of land which they called "Waldridge" on the north side of South River which bordered the plantation "Broome". Sometime between 1658 and 1670, James Warner's first wife, Ann (Unknown) Warner, passed away, leaving him a widower. In about 1671 he remarried to a Quaker widow, Elizabeth (Lee) Harris. She was about his age and the widow of plantation-owner, William Harris. They had no children together. Elizabeth survived James' passing in 1673. James Warner's will was written and signed just before his death on 13 Feb. 1673 and it was proven 25 May 1673 in Anne Arundel County, Maryland. In it he gave to "Wife Elizabeth, Exec," his estate, real and personal during her life. To dau., Johanna Sewell and heirs., said estate at death of wife. To sons [sons-in-law] Samuel Howard, and Philip Warner and Henry Sewell, personality.

One source gives his birth and death places as Spain, but, according to several sources, the name Cochran and its various spellings stems from Paisley Parish in Renfrewshire, Scotland, west of Glasgow. The Scots, of course emigrated from north Ireland to the Scot Highlands and Lowlands in the 400s. Clan Cochrane claims its original ancestor was a Scandanavian Viking (pirate), who settled in Refrewshire. 'Coch' may derive from the Welsh/Brit Gael word meaning red. But the name may also be derived from two Gaelic words meaning 'battle cry'. Their heraldic beast is the boar, because of its fierce nature. Another tradition is that an early family member fought with such courage that his leader called him 'coch ran' or 'brave fellow'. Centuries later many Scots became Protestant. About 80,000 returned to Ulster as Presbyters as part of Oliver Cromwell's disastrous colonization policy called 'Plantations', his failed effort to turn Ireland Protestant, though Clan Cochrane supported the Royalists in the English Civil Wars of the 1640s. A century or more later, many of their descendants emigrated to the North American English colonies. Married Anna Mary MacKay.
