Dear Kathy, Could be, but I don't feel that they could be the same person as suggested. They could be two seperate Capeharts. They are a generation apart. I guess that we would only know if someone could find the marriage records possibly for the Nancy Kapott/William McGlauhon marriage (or Nancy Capehart if it is spelled that way) or the birth information of Jeremiah (son of Nancy Kapott and William McGlauhon). It could be very possible that he might have married a cousin. Anything is possible until "proven" otherwise. I know that there is mis-information out there on the Nancy Baker/Nancy Parker item marriage also. It is Nancy Baker for sure....I have a copy of the actual handwritten marriage bond. I am also interested to hear also about any other Kapott's that you have found....seeing as you say someone suggested that they were possibly the same.

I'll weigh in on this, since I am the "smart lady" who suggested this probability some time back. Sure hope you meant "smart" as in intelligent! I think I merely pointed out that there is a similarity in the sound of the names Kapott and Capehart, suggesting that they may be the same family name, but with a spelling variation, as seemed to occur in so many of the surnames. I've not actually researched the Capehart family, but was aware that Capeharts were in the same parts of northeastern North Carolina as where the McGlaughons first settled. I would imagine that the early pronunciation of the name Capeheart was pretty close to Kapott, since the tendency then was not to pronounce the "r" in many names. Sadly, I have few facts to help you out, just opinions. My McGlaughons spelled their name McGlohon and McLawhorn and settled in Pitt County, NC. Surely they had connections to those in Bertie County, but I've not proved it yet. However, Jeremiah was a frequently given name in my McGlohon line and made its way to my great-great grandfather Jeremiah Worthington, often spelled Weathrington, and frequently pronounced "Wed'nun". Good luck in your research.
