Data I have on William Laws of Wilks Co., N.C. (more than one): 1) Dec., 1779 - William Laws entered land request for 100 acres on Lewis Branch, later marked out and entered by a John Wilson. 2) 5 Dec. 1779 - William Laws a juror 3) 6 March, 1780 - Will of William Laws read in court (written 7 Jan., 1780)..in this will he mentions his daughter Ann Lovelace. Wilcom William Laws and John Laws Sr. qualified as executors. 4) A William Laws entered request for 100 acres on Moravian Creek (originally entered by Micajah Lewis but crossed out). 23 Oct. 1786 - Letters of administration granted to Amelia Laws, widow of William Welcom Laws, dec'd. 7 Sept., 1792 - Deed mentions William Laws line 3 Nov., 1795 - Deed between David Laws and John Wilson of Pittsylvania Co., Va.; 150 acres on Middle Fork of Moravian Creek, Issac Laws line. Wit. William Laws, etc. This was the date it was entered in the Wilks Co. Record...a look at the original may show an earlier date for when this deed was actually done...also a check in the Pittsylvania Co., Va. records would show this deed and exact date. There does seem to be a strong connection between the Pittslyvania Co, Va. Laws and Wilks Co. Laws; if so, could this include John Lovelace of Wilks Co. and the Va. line too???????
