again, the info stated to me by bill brandon is that this was his john cawthon/ agnes harris, daughter of william harris of  hanover/ louisa/ and goochland cos, va, who had moved to granville co, nc by 1790.   per rootsweb site by lavere peters, also, again, citing bill brandon, this was his john cawthon/ agnes harris, who  witnessed carter hudspeth's 1796 granville co, nc will.    carter hudspeth is  stated, per the info to follow,  to have been  the son of ralph hudspeth, who was also, again,  involved in the  1763 granville co, nc will of sherwood harris, whose wife was jane hudspeth, indicating, again, that there was some  probable kinship re sherwood harris' wife, jane hudspeth harris  and this ralph hudspeth and his son carter hudspeth, who was involved with john cawthon/ agnes harris.   i have never focused on granville co, nc and this is not, as i have talked a lot about and posted info on harris hunters,   my specific harris line and family who were either in goochland co, va or granville co, nc.     i have had no reason to focus on granville co, nc.    again, my william harris/ judith hudson were in brunswick/  lunenburg co, va  by 1743 and my william harris, sr/ frances  goode was in lunenburg co, va by 1746.  my william harris, sr/  frances goode and my william harris, jr/ frances rodgers, etc, obtained these ca 1770 grants in laurens co, sc and my william harris, jr/ frances rodgers died there in 1799.   again, all of the info shows, per the lunenburg co, va records,  that my william harris, sr/ frances goode and my goode family,  etc, were involved there  early in lunenburg co, va with my william harris/ judith hudson and with these same individuals and families, including this richard palmer, who had been involved with our harris family on cubb creek and with david harris/ jane landy, son of our william harris/ mary giles.     again,this 1750 dodson survey for this land on wynn creek for  william harris, sr and jr, which became a patent to my william  harris, sr/ frances good in 1758, confirms that my william harris, sr/ france goode was the son of my william harris/ judith  hudson of  lunenburg/ mecklenburg co, va.   again, my harris family research, per these records and our harris dna, also say and show that it was my william harris/  judith hudson who was the son of our william harris/ mary giles.   so,  again, if this william harris of hanover/ louisa/ and goochland cos, va is part our captain thomas harris' harris line/ family,  and possibly the son of our william harris/ mary giles' brother, edward harris, which is what a lot of this info does indicate, again, per the records and these connections, more research still needs to be done and a harris descendant of this william harris and/ or his sons of hanover/ louisa/ goochland co, va  need to be also be found to part participate in our harris dna project.   also, if this  sherwood harris/ jane hudspeth harris family in  granville co, nc associated there with ralph hudspeth and whose son carter hudspeth was associated, as shown, there with john  cawthon/ agnes harris, per the 1796 will of carter hudspeth, are also related  to our captain thomas harris' harris line and family, then, again, further research needs to be done and harris dna needs to confirm this.   again, this is not my specific harris line and family either there  in goochland co, va or granville co, nc.    this is what i have said and shown and continue to say and  to show.   these were, however,  bill brandon's john cawthon/ agnes harris, daughter of this william harris of louisa/ goochland co, va, who had moved to granville co, nc and, as shown, were involved with the harris/ hudspeth families there.       LaVere Peters Genealogy Database Entries: 27503    Updated: 2008-09-15 15:01:12 UTC (Mon)    Contact: LaVere Peters    Home Page: The LaVere Peters Genealogical Home Page Index | Descendancy | Register | Pedigree | Ahnentafel | Add Post-em ID: I187 Name: Carter HUDSPETH Surname: Hudspeth Given Name: Carter Sex: M Birth: ABT 1723 in , Henrico, VA Death: 1796 in , Granville, NC Reference Number: 486.2 _UID: 748E6D888D62D611872CADF2889C830ED473 Note: I don't know for sure that Carter had two wives or that Carter, Jr. was his son; but that is my best guess for now (18 Apr 1996). ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Carter (X) HUDSPETH - HEDSPETH - HEDGPETH, etc. Parents - Ralph HUDSPETH II and Mary CARTER Born - about 1723 in Henrico Co., VA.
