I am reposting this query, sorry I failed to mention Hyde County is in North Carolina. Seeking information on the following: Cate COLLINGS (COLLINS) , an "Indian Woman" servant of William GIBBS, Constable of Arrowmuskeet. March 1765 Hyde County Court Minutes and Orphans Book 2, on motion of Patrick Gordon ordered that Wm. GIBBS "shew" cause if he has any, why Cate COLLINGS (COLLINS) an Indian woman, now in his service should not be set free. June Court 1765 - ordered that Wm. GIBBS have timely notice that he show cause why Cate COLLINGS (COLLINS), an Indian woman be not set at liberty. Also believe her possible descendants (all free people of color) were Susannah b. before 1776, Charity b. circa 1800, Horatio, and Nancy. Both Horatio and Nancy were cited for illegal marriages to slaves. Horatio had "taken up" with a slave named Winney property of Henry Lucas in Hyde County, April 1863. Nancy, had "taken up" with a slave named Ellick, property of Ananias Sadler, October 1842. I need to know the outcome of all the above proceedings, and any other information regarding these people. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Lillian
