About 12 yrs ago we visited the library in Warrenton and I made some copies of a booklet on Warren County families. I don't know any more about them but thought the information may help someone else.

In 1822 he was appointed guardian of the children of desceased Sterling [PITCHFORD. The estate was administered by Peter R. DAVIS. I have no further information on Weldon N. EDWARDs but many of the descendants of Sterling PITCHFORD are named Weldon and/or Edwards in his honor. Claud Eaton

I am told there was a WELDON EDWARDS in Warren Co, NC. I am interested in a Weldon Edwards born about 1815 in NC (county unknown). He was the son of John and Marthy (GRAHAM?) EDWARDS who came to Williamson Co, TN before the 1820 census and both died there in 1821/1822 leaving children born 1799-1818. When the parents died, Dr. William S. Webb made a deed of gift to the children. His connection to this family, if any, is unknown. I do not have access to the 1810 NC census, but John Edwards should have been there with a wife, both age 26 to 45, and two or more children. Thank you for any help--can I help you in Bedford Co, TN?

Brodie is not a strange name for Warren Co. Dr. John Brodie, b.c. 1782, m. Martha Eaton Williams on 15 Dec. 1809 in Warren Co. He was listed in the 1850 census as age 68, occupation: physician. In addition to leaving descendants, there must have been the usual crop of Warren Co. children who were named for the family phisycian. Dawn Richardson wrote: > > I find this very interesting.

The Brodies are connected with the James Buchanan Duke family of Orange Co, NC. Look at a bio of Doris Duke. Evelyn Mitchell Smith

In researching the Mitchells & Dukes of Mecklenberg, VA, Granville-Warren-Halifax, NC, I found that the Brodies are connected to the Dukes of Orange Co, NC. Look at a bio of Doris Duke, the tobacco heiress. Evelyn Mitchell Smith

I was looking at old maps from Warren County from 1900 and earlier, and noticed in the Southwestern part of the county the name of "Brodie" representing a place, the name was on several maps and also in railroad maps for the county. Any info on this would be greatly appreciated. Mitch

JOHN CASWELL HOWELL b ca 1820 NC, supposedly Wake Co. d 1883 Milltown, Berrien Co, GA CASWELL HOWELL mar PERNEICE WOMACK -in my aunt's info!! mar ARRENA WOMACK - in Huxford's info ; PERNEICE MORING according to info in at the LDS. Some of the Census gave her birth place in NC & some in GA. I'm beginning to be more comfortable thinking of wife as PERNEICE MORING, as CASWELL HOWELL had a bro, BARNEY B. HOWELL who also came down into GA w/him - & the bro's wife was SMITHY JANE MORING. (Also I tracked down every WOMACK I could & the only PERNEICE WOMACK was married to someone else!) CASWELL & PERNEICE (MORING) HOWELL settled first in Thomas Co, GA....were there for the 1850 Census w/4 children: SARAH; BURRELL; PIETY; PEYTON They were in the househole of MARY ALLEN who had 2 daus, FRANCES & ELIZABETH....I've not found if there is a connection yet, but believe that there is. When my grandfather, HAMPTON ANDERSON HOWELL, b 1851 was a toddler, the family moved into Berrien Co & CASWELL HOWELL became an ordained Baptist minister, serving several churches in the area. If anyone has any connection at all to these HOWELLs or has heard anything that might connect my CASWELL HOWELL back to Wake Co., possibly to his parents & siblings, I would be so grateful to hear about it!

Though I would help if I could. Please, people, let's not clog up the mailing list with personal mail. Sometimes, mistakes are made, so I am not picking on you in particular Norvill. I, like many of you, get alot of mail. We just don't want to have our mailbox filled up with something that does NOT pertain to us. We don't mind things that MAY pertain to us or not. That is what this is for, to find out clues. Thanks for allowing this little gripe session. I am looking for Milam, Jackson, Short, Ellis, or maybe a few others. My family got out of there about 1800. If your family WAS there in the 1700's, give me a jingle. Who knows maybe we'll be cousins. :) Sincerely William

Thanks for the information. Norvill Jones

Hello List: Some of my Jones ancestors came to North central Bute County, NC before the Revolution and settled on Hawtree Creek, Smith's Creek and Mill Branch.

I do not have the answer to your query but I have information on some of the families that you list before 1800 on my web site if you are interested. Forrest King http://hometown.aol.com/vafdking/webver3.htm

Warren/Northampton--> Nash County, NC I am looking for information on John MOODY-m- Esther RICKS (Griffins Twp, Nash Co). His first wife was Harriet (last name unknown, 1880 Census). John has a lot of children ( Judge, Clyde, Robert, Nathaniel/Norman, Curtis, Sue, Pat, Annie, Cary, Billie, Johnnie, WIllie, Rose, Charles) between both wives but I am interested in his daughters Zater (Zeatta) and Sallie MOODY. Zater is listed in the 1910 Census as living with her sister and her husband, Sallie and William "Babe" CARTER (father: Henry CARTER (Warren County), mother: Priscilla TONEY (Spring Hope - related to William Toney Funeral Home). Zater never married Burl COLEY but they had a daughter named Berta MOODY. Later Zater and James ALSTON had a daughter named Lula Bell Moody ALSTON. Berta MOODY never married Frederick Douglas ARRINGTON but they had a son named George ARRINGTON who later legally changed his name to George CARTER (Nash County). Berta MOODY is listed in the 1920 Census as Berta CARTER only because she lived in the household of her sister and her husband. In those days if the male head of the family supported you or your children in their home you were called by their last names but illegally of course and that is how most people names are listed in the census records. Berta/Roberta later married Ulysses PITTMAN from Edgecombe County and they later moved to Baltimore, MD. (When they died they were buried at Cedars Hills Gardens or Mt. Minans Cemetery in Baltimore, MD.) Priscilla and Henry CARTER children are William, Luzianna, Henry, Wiley, Lias & Lazarus (twins), June and Mary. Sallie and William CARTER (1st marriage) children are Almeda, Etta, Henry, John, Josphine, Lillie, Sarah Ada and Willie. Beulah and William CARTER (2nd marriage) children are Arnetta, Elbert, Lajetta and William. The CARTERs attended O'Dell Baptist Church (Littleton) and Manns Chapel Church (Nash County). Some descendants still live in the Swift Creek area. Their church memberships and burials are at Swift Creek Missionary Baptist Church / Cemetery. John MOODY, Henry CARTER (Native American - Warren County) and William CARTER (1/2 Native American) were all listed as land owners. Their lands were passed down through their children and some brought their own land. The majority of the people above were listed as mulattos. Please email all replies to me. Any info whether large or small will be most helpful. If you have assess to listed surname mailing list please feel free to forward this query to them and anyone else you may think that could be of any help to me with my family. Thanks for your help.

I attended my aunt's funeral on January 15 at Social Union Baptist Church (Nashville). My relatives know that I am the family historian of both sides of my family. While home my uncle told me about a midwife named Berta Hilliard. He said he thought she may have been a Ricks. As she birth children she recorded all birth in a book. I understand this book is now in circulation and being used to proof the birth of people without birth certificates. She delivered babies in the Red Oak - Swift Creek areas. I would like more info on ths lady and book. I hope someone reading this post knows of this or some family member I will be able to contact. I am looking for my grandmother's birth information. She would have went by the names of Berta Moody, Berta Coley or Berta Carter. She is listed on the 1910 census as Berta Moody with her mother, Zeatta Moody. She was 2 years old at the time and her mother was 21. They were living with Sallie and William "Babe" Carter. Sallie is Berta's aunt (mother's sister) and Zeatta's sister. On the 1920 census there is a Alberta Carter (3) and Berta Carter (11 - Berta's last name has now changed to from Moody to Carter, she is also listed as a daughter now) listed in William and Sallie's household. I have no idea who Alberta is. Zeatta is no longer listed in that household. Also I would like to know if anyone has heard of Rocky Land or Rocky Land School and Swift Creek School. It's the area with the big steel trestle bridge. The bridge is called Hilliard Mill Trestle Bridge and was built in 1925. My father was born in 1921 and use to walk across that bridge as a child. A lot of my family members attended these schools. I would like the history and enrollment info of both these schools. My relatives that attended these schools are now in their 50s and 70s. I don't know how long the schools were or have been opened. I know Swift Creek School is now open. I understand Social Union has a cemetery, if you know where the cemetery is located, please let me know. It never crossed my mind on Saturday to ask. My aunt says that is where my great grandmother, Tempie Devereux Whitley was buried. Thank you very much for any help you can give me.
