    3. Jeanette and any others researching JONES.... I have been unsuccessful so far in finding Levina JONES who entered into this contract with Alexander Carrell in 1802 in Sampson County. >>>> "Abstracts of Sampson County Deeds, Books 10-12", (ca. 1794 to ca. 1804) by Max R. Peterson, Jr. Page 85 Bond: Levina Jones and Alexander Carrell to David Dodd ("Esqr Chairman of this successors in office") Dated 2 November 1802. The amount of the bond was 200 pounds. "The conditions of the above Obligation is such that if the above Bounded Levina Jones and Alexander Carroll Keep from any way chargeable to the Parish off On this County then this Obligation to be Void otherwise to Remain in full force and Virtue." Wit.: (blank) (2,4,12i,13u) >>>> I *wonder* if Levina was Alexander's sister, and that the two of them were executors of the estate of Dempsey Carrell, Sr., who I have come to believe is Alexander's father. I have the very short bond as a graphic file and will be glad to send it to anyone who believes either Alexander or Levina is in their family. I think Dempsey, Sr. is the father of Alexander based on owning adjoining property. Alexander purchased land from Dempsey, Sr. and later sold part of it to Dempsey Carrell, Jr. and Stephen - listed as land granted to Dempsey, Sr. Also, Demcy Carrel signed the marriage bond for Alexander's marriage to Lucy Ryal/Royal in Duplin County in 1783. I think Dempsey, Sr. died around 1802 based on the fact that he was excused from paying poll tax in 1789 because of his age. There were a Demcy Carrol and a Demey Carrol in the 1790 census. One was likely Dempsey, Sr. and one Dempsey, Jr. I do not find a person I believe to be Dempsey, Sr. after 1802, but the court records do not always distinguish between Jr. and Sr. I would like to learn... - Is there an estate settlement record I have not yet found for Dempsey, Sr. around 1802? - Is this bond related to an estate settlement? - Is Levina Jones the daughter of Dempsey, Sr. and the sister of Alexander, Stephen, & Dempsey, Jr? - Who did Levina Jones marry? Thanks to anyone who can help, Lura CARROLL Southard >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jeanette" <pjkh@comcast.net> To: <NCBladen@rootsweb.com> Sent: Friday, November 09, 2007 9:54 AM Subject: [NCBLADEN] Moses Plummer & Ann Harrison :I am descended from Moses Plummer & Ann Harrison and would love to hear from : cousins.
