    3. Fran, I didn't send it to you but I know that it comes from the book "Bladen County, North Carolina Abstracts of Early Deeds 1738-1804" by Holcomb. It is on page 50 of my copy of this book. I HIGHLY recommend this book of abstracted Bladen County deeds to researchers of early Bladen County. Not all deeds were destroyed in the 3 fires that consumed Bladen's deeds over a 130 year period. Also, if you're looking for early tax lists for Bladen, try to find Vol 1 and/or 2 of Byrd's "Bladen County North Carolina Tax Lists"; the first volume is 1768 - 1774 and the second volume is 1775-1789. The originals were found at Duke buried in a private collection. Byrd transcribed them, I understand, and produced the 2 volumes. These lists give us an incredible view of families and their immediate neighbors for 23 years. I've found so much info from these two books. The first volume is almost impossibly hard to find to purchase but you can find the second volume online to buy.
