I am looking for information on the Pearson Family that lived in Johnston Co/Wake County 1750-1800. Samuel Pearson (Captain) raise a large family and had numerous pieces of property in what is now Wake County. He built and operated a Mill on Steep Hill Creek which we understand is now considered an historical landmark. He owned several tracts of land on Walnut Creek. His brother Moses Pearson owned property adjacent to Samuel along Walnut Creek and there is at least one reference in the Wake County Deeds to a branch of Walnut Creek known as Moses Pearson's Branch (probably not the case now) Moses Pearson migrated to the Pee Dee area of South Carolina (1760), but it appears left his land in the name of his Daughter Comfort Pearson and one of his sons which was named Bradent. Comfort joined her siblings in Marlboro County 15 years later. We are looking for anyone who has any information on this family, the areas of Walnut/Swift Creek their land may have been on, etc Thank you Glenn Pearson
