I went to Raleigh this past week end and checked the marriage bond listed in the Lincoln bond book for Philip Fry and Elizabeth Stark. The name is definitely Starr, not Stark. So now that I have that mystery solved, does any one know the relationships of the Philip, George, and Henry Fry in the following marriage bonds? Note that the bondsman for both Philip and Henry was George. Philip Fry & Elizabeth Starr - bond date 16 Oct. 1808, signed by Philib Frey and George X Fry (his mark), signed in the presence of ? Wilfong There is a 500 pound bond "void on condition there is no lawfull impetiment to hinder the marriage of Philip Fry & Elizabeth Starr, otherwise to stand and remain in full and venue? as witness our hands & seals this 16th day of October 1808" There's what looks like a slip of the pen on the bottom of the 2nd r of Starr. Henry Fry & Sally Eikerd - bond of 500 pounds put up by Henry Fry, George Fry and John Eikerd. Bond signed by Henry Fry (his mark), George X Fry (his mark) and John Bost I'm still looking for the marriage or parentage of Elizabeth Fry who married Philip Starr, son of Jacob.
