In 1807, the estate of Richard "Shepperd" (deceased) was sold in Iredell Co. Names on the record include the following: Elizabeth Shepperd, widow; J (?) Jones; Wm Falls; Wm Wason; Thos. Wingfield; George Vesser (?); Ann Williams; Charles Mills; Shadrick Mosley; Jno. Wingfield; Gerrot Winfield; and Wm. Brown. Does anyone know where in Iredell Co. any of these folks lived? Thanks, Marlene

Dia duit! (Irish Gaelic for "Hello!") Thank you all for subscribing to the Iredell Co., NC Mailing List. My name is Les Cavin, and I am the List Coordinator for this Discussion Group. I guess that it would be appropriate for me to submit my Iredell Co. ties to the List, since some of you already have submitted yours. Boy! You guys are quick. [:<D I am seeking any information about the CAVIN family in the Gaston Co./Iredell Co./Rowan Co./Alexander Co/Lincoln Co. areas of NC, and SC also. Well...really just about anywhere. I have Family in the Spartanburg, SC area and have found descendants in the Mt. Holly, McAdenville, Stanley, Gastonia, Statesville, Hiddenite and Troutman areas of NC, plus other areas. I'd love to have correspondence re. CAVIN's in these areas or anywhere else a CAVIN might be found. My 3rdGGF is ROBERT CAVIN, and was born around c.1775(?). He settled near Hiddenite, Iredell Co./Alexander Co., NC late c.1700's(?) and married the former SUSANNAH (SUSIE) HAINES. I have been told that her Father was RALPH HAINES, but this is unconfirmed yet. Children include: ZIZA GATES CAVIN, SALLIE CAVIN TUCKER, WILLIAM H. CAVIN and ROBERT WINSTON CAVIN. I think that my 3rdGGF, ROBERT CAVIN (or his Father), may have moved from PA to VA(?) before settling in NC, but I have no proof of this, too, as of yet. Tapadh leibh, Sláinte!
