Wit: Matthia Barringer with aDutch name. (Mecklenburg County was formed in 1762 from Anson County) (LincolnCounty was formed from Mecklenburg in 1779) 1769. Elizabeth Lafavor witnessed the deed of James Foster. (Ihave seen somewhere, but cannot find it right now, that John Lefevourtransferred land to Elizabeth Lefevour, his SISTER in the early 1770s.) 1769 Isaac Lefevre stated in his Rev. War Pensionapplication that he was born in 1762 inSussex County, New Jersey and moved to Anson County with his father in 1769. Hesaid his father then moved to South Carolina. January 12, 1775 Nicholas White to John Lefevar, acknowledged. Anson County Court Minutes Feb. 9, 1776-March 8, 1776 John Lefever in Anson County Militia, Rev. War. He re-enlisted in Spartanburg County S.C. December 17, 1778 Anson County. John Lafavor (or Lafavour) to John Parsons 293 ac on SWside of PeeDee River; part of land Nicholas White sold to John Lafavor, frantedSpril 29, 1768 to Nicholas White who sold September 16, 1772 to John Lafavor.(signed) John "Lafever" December 19, 1778.

No other information onchildren is known) 1783 Special Certificate NC Revolutionary Army Accounts toJoseph Lefever 1784 Special Certificate NC Revolutionary Army Accounts toJohn Lefever (my hunch is that this John is father of Isaac, b. 1762) 1784 Abraham Lefever received grant of land in Anson Countyfrom the State of North Carolina. NOTE: I believe Joseph, John and Abraham to be brothers…andperhaps Jacob. 1787 Special Certificate NC Revolutionary Army Accounts toAbraham Lefever 1787 Abraham received land from William Hunter, father ofhis wife Dianna Hunter. William Hunter paid taxes to Ireland, this it isbelieved he came to America from Ireland. 1787 John Lefever purchased land from Randolph Laurens inSpartanburg, SC. Witness to the deed was William Tate. Lucy Lefever is named inthe will of William Tate dated 1792. He also names a daughter Delila. (LeanderLefevers named a daughter Delila) 1788 Court Order, Spartanburg Co., SC “Frederick Hoversagainst John Lefever (spelled Lefecer). Attachment. Ordered that a commissionDedimus Potestatum issue to the State of North Carolina, Lincoln County, totake Examination of John Beest in behalf of the plaintiff.” Ie. Mr. Hoover is suing Mr. Lefever, probablyfor debt. The county court has issued a Writ of Attachment, meaning JohnLefever’s personal property will be attached and sold to cover the debt. If sufficient personal property is notlocated, then Lefever’s land can be attached. Mr. Lefever is defending himself. John Best who lives in Lincoln County, NC has been summoned to testifyin behalf of Frederick Hoover. Usuallywitnesses are required to testify in open court; however, extenuatingcircumstances such as illness could prevent a witness from being able to attendcourt. In that case, the Court will approve a dedimus potestatum. This is acourt order issued to an appropriate official – such as a justice of the peacein Lincoln County. – to hear and record the testimony of John Best. The Justice of the Peace then seals histranscript of the testimony and returns it to the Court where it is then readinto the record of the proceedings. 1789 Abraham Lefever and wife Elizabeth of Augusta Co., VAsell land in Lincoln County, North Carolina to John Cressimore with explanationthat “John Lefeber’s will dated Oct 1787 and registered in Berks Co., PAdivided his land in PA but failed to do anything about the land in NorthCarolina.” Abraham, as the eldest son was declared heir-at-law. (This Abrahamis NOT the same Abraham who married Dianna Hunter. This Abraham’s line has beenextensively researched and fairly well documented.) July 6, 1790 – Isaac Leafever and wife Melinda Lefever, of Burke (or Wilkes) County, Georgia transferred land in Edgefield County, SC to John Talbert. (I have a copy of this deed transfer scanned and on disk. Perhaps someone more skilled at reading old documents could look at it for me? I will email it to you.) 1790 ish. Abraham and Dianna Hunter move from Anson County to Burke County, Georgia, then to Jefferson County, Georgia. 1790 North Carolina Census. Joseph Lefever, Mecklenburg County.

Stated he was born in Spartanburg County, SC andgrew up in Burke County, NC where most of his relatives still lived. He statedhe had a brother in Warren County, Tenn (Moses was only Lafever there.

William Lefever was discharged by expiration of sentence on the 1st November 1834. He was detained for106 days for bad conduct. (Where did William go after his release? An Alexander Lefever was born in 1835 and Dempsey Lefever was born in 1836. – Burke County,NC? - In 1850 census, Alexander is living with a Clara Lefever. This is adifferent Alexander than is brother to William and Leander born in 1820s) In1860 Dempsey is living with a Margaret Lefever.) 1805 (and 1795) Georgia Land Lottery. Abraham (m.

(Dianna was born ca 1760.) NOTE: One source wrote me that Abraham died while visiting his grandson, Isaac, in Burke County, NC. I have no documentation. 1814 William Lafever, of Burke County, NC. enlisted in NCMilitia 10th regt. U.S. Infantry during the War of 1812. Granted a disabled veterans discharge in 1815. J. William Lafever married Clarissa Chambers onApril 14, 1816 in Burke County, NC. (Records indicate that William was in thepoor house in Fayetteville from 1815-1819 but that doesn’t seem possible if hemarried in Burke County in 1816.?) Also, he received pension until 1819 whenpension payments stopped as he was presumed dead. He reapplied in Wilkes County in 1843 Court of Law & Equity.This was denied. Then he applied again in Davidson County in 1850.

I am a Deal - Stafford and there are many intertwinings through the generations with a Sigmon or two. Since my great grandparents were married by RL Sigmon I thought there might be a chance of learning more about him and a few of the people in the wedding party. My ggparents were one Byers and one Bostion. The attendees at the wedding were Ellen Little, a Mr. White and Elizabeth Bostion. Also, the curiosity with why my great grandparents were married in Catawba and not either Iredell (where he was from) or Alexander County (where she was from.) I have the Deal-Stafford genealogy book (my dad included in it) and I have a few others. This wedding took place in 1887.

He came to Lamar Co., TX, in late 1800s as several cousins preceded him there from Lincoln Co., NC, one being John Wesley Sain, a double cousin as their fathers married sisters in NC, John Wesley Sain's mother was Eleanor Holman, I don't have my Sain file before me, but Weinhardt Sain was an uncle of my grandfather. Solomon's father was Peter Sain, one of several sons of Jacob Sain, born & died in Lincoln Co., his wife being Catherine, maiden surname unknown. Two Sain families settled in NC, the other being Casper Sain and families in Rowan Co., NC. In 1983 a Sain Lady in Arizona said she believed Casper and Jacob were brothjers or cousins. My maternal grandmother told me the Sain name was anglicized after soldiers invoaded the Sain home looking for hoarded flour and sugar, this apparently being in Germany. Most Germans came to Philadelphia via Amst! erdam. I found a Jacob Zin and Casper Zin living next dor to each other in Penn. in the late 1700s. I haven't heard of the surnames listed in your messaage so probably your book wouldn't help me. Solomon Sain went off to the Civil War and was never heard from again, and I find no record of him in CSA records. Probably blown to smithereens. Jim W.
